You can even choose where to bath, either inside or alfresco in the ocean side shower. Cool off and Take a dip in the custom made infinity edge pool over looking the beach. If you've had to much sun and the air conditioning is more your speed feel free to lounge on the couch and watch some TV on our flat screen. Staying at Purple Papaya means you enjoy panoramic views of the turquoise blue Atlantic Ocean and tinted pink sand beach by day and outrageous sunsets and star gazing by night.

**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**

    The Purple Papaya is an amazing house with a gorgeous view. It had everything we needed for a few nights in Paradise. Thank you!

    This property was amazing! The kitchen had everything we needed, the beach/pool view was incredible and I can't wait to go back again. Honestly, I don't know how the owner can share, I would live there year-round.

    Purple Papaya was perfect! The location is perfect in so many ways…..directly on the beach, centrally located on the island and next door to Tippy’s! It is extremely clean, well maintained (mostly) quaint but does not feel small. If it had a washer and dryer, it would be perfection! The views are stunning! The pool is definitely a bonus! So great to have a dip after a day in the sun and sand. You will love it!!!!

    What an amazing place, the pics don't do the view justice! The house is also in a great location, easy access to Gov. Harbour, other beautiful beaches. Host was very responsive. We did a quick load of laundry at the laundromat in GH while getting coffee nearby which made it easy. Cooked at the house some, it had what we needed. We will be back to Purple Papaya!

    We had a great time. It's a cozy house right on the beach. Tremendous location and the house had everything we needed. Easy to find and communication with owner was excellent. We would come back here.

    We enjoyed every minute of our stay at the Purple Papaya. The cottage was super clean and well stocked. The views were phenomenal! We walked the beach every day. We enjoyed Tippys, for lunch and dinner. We could hear the music from our back porch, while enjoying the pool . Would definitely recommend staying at Purple Papaya.

    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!!

    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

    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!
