"There are several villas here that are great for families, each with multiple bedrooms, a pool, and a private walkway to the beach. Like most hotels in Tulum, the beach here is the star attraction."

"In Tulum, Papaya Playa Project is achingly cool with thatched villas, a beach club packed with digital nomads by day and stylish clubbers at night, and a robust calendar of wellness events"
