“The perfect place after Honolulu!”

Reviewed May 22, 2013 NEW

A nice clean, comfy room, overlooking the lovely garden and pool. Jeannette and Bob were friendly hosts (Elsa, the cat took a little longer). A simple DIY breakfast of cereal, toast & tea is provided and there is a fridge and a microwave for guest use by the main house. A lovely lanai to sit and eat or just relax.... More

“Quiet little getaway!”

We spent 5 nights at "P.P." You simply cannot beat the price. It's a simple, quiet, clean and relaxing place. Bob & Jennette are very accomadating. It was a great location on a beautiful part of the island and it was nice to be away from Waikiki! Catch a sunrise at Kailua Beach, less than 2 mins away and be... More

“A wonderful end to our 10 day vacation”

Reviewed April 1, 2013

We spent our first seven nights in croweded and noisy Wakiki. Staying with Bob and Jeanette for the last three nights was a pleasant change. We are so glad we had a chance to experience another town and another way of Hawaiian life. It was wonderful to be able to stay in an authentic Hawaiian home with a pool and... More

“Wonderful place”

Reviewed March 16, 2013

We stayed at Bob and Jeanette's place for three nights and had a wonderful time. They are wonderful hosts, the rooms was great, and the location was less than a mile from the beach. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and highly recommend staying with them at their place. The price was very reasonable and the room very comfortable.

“Watch out!”

Reviewed January 23, 2013

I spoke with Jeanette and reserved a room for my young child and I. She was very casual and said a check in the mail for a $200 deposit would be fine. Our conversation was very pleasant and I was very excited to be staying there. I offered to pay with a credit card right away, but I was told... More

Aloha, The original request for accommodations was made on 12 January. When required deposit that confirms the reservation was not received by 22 January, I contacted the guest and was told the deposit was mailed 5 days earlier. When deposit was not received by 23 January, I opened the dates for other guests. On the 25th of January, the deposit... More

“Nice”

Reviewed November 21, 2012

Jeanette & Bob are a truly nice old couple, but their cat Elsa is a bit on the shy side. Their clean home with a big lanai and pool is a 15 min walk to either the town or the beach, and somewhat in the middle of nowhere. There are two rooms for rent. Emphasis on arrival is on do-nots,... More

Aloha, I'm glad you enjoyed our beauiful island and the many things to do and see. I appreciate your review. We feel we give good value for our accommodations, sorry, you felt our rate of $100.00 a night for 2 people was too much. Mahalo More

“If you want a peaceful place this is the B&B to go”

Reviewed August 27, 2012

I noticed there are reviews that give quite a different perspective of Papaya Paradise. It is because the owners Bob and Jeanette are senior people and in this way they have prepared their B&B for people who want peace and quiet. I am specifically looking for a place for peace and quiet and got exactly what I am looking for.... More
