**Keep in mind that our neighbors Tippy's close for a period of time in September and October. Please call them for details. Tippy's is also next door to our Purple Papaya cottage, therefore you may hear some island vibes and tunes while outside, (this is of course out of our control).**
**Please also keep in mind that Eleuthera is a secluded island, therefore at times the island may shut off the water, as well as internet or electricity. Water pressure can be low as well, but this is all due to being on a secluded island, so please be patient with us. Any of this issues will not result in the guest getting compensated since this is out of our control**

Summary: Purple Papaya checked off all of our boxes. It was clean, with a pool, and the view, my God, the view. Everyday we walked on the beach, got in the ocean, got in the pool only to take another walk during the sunset. Watching the sunrise was life changing!! Only God could create something so beautiful and Purple Papaya provided that for us!!

Summary: We loved our stay at the Purple Papaya. The location, steps from the beach, is unmatched. Having Tippy’s nearby is a plus for easy access to food, and the music wasn’t an issue for us. The kitchen was nicely appointed with seasonings and utensils for us to prepare our own meals. Loved waking up to the sunrise over the ocran

Summary: This is a gorgeous place. I think that Heaven will be very much like waking up to see those beautiful sparkling blue waves crashing into the white sand just outside our glass doors. I wish I could take that amazing view home with me! The power went out on the island several times but the Purple Papaya has a back up generator, so that was not a problem. The location is great. Good food right next door at Tippy’s(but slow service). Governor’s Harbour has shopping and restaurants too. We enjoyed several sunsets at the French Leave restaurant. Pascal’s restaurant is also a great choice! Over all this is an exceptional place to relax and unwind and spend a few days on “island time” I have been wanting to come here for 5 years and I’m so happy we finally made it. It was worth the wait!

Summary: Property was clean and ease of use for the amenities. Relaxing and great location to many sites. Driveway access was sometimes a challenge (view obstructions).

Summary: Purple Papaya is ideal for anyone looking for a place for true rest and relaxation. Great host and the location can’t be beat. It sits on a the most gorgeous beach, easy drive to Governors Harbor, and adjacent to Tippy’s restaurant. The house is as advertised: clean, neat, and modern – with a priceless view. I highly recommend the house and host!

Summary: The property was exactly as described and extremely comfortable. My wife and I stayed for 8 nights and had a relaxing and enjoyable stay. We explored the entire island, but the beach and snorkeling right off of the property were some of the best that we found. We would love to stay here again someday!!
