I had a wonderful stay at Papayas. The manager, Jimmy, was very friendly and accommodating, allowing me to check in early. The hotel has a cozy, family atmosphere, and I truly felt welcomed as a guest. Jamie even introduced me to his family, which made the experience feel very personal and genuine. It was also convenient to be able to leave my car parked there. Overall, I had a great time and felt right at home.
There were very few negatives during my stay. The facilities are simple rather than luxurious, but they fit well with the relaxed and family oriented atmosphere of the property.

Perfectly
I stayed here for three nights and absolutely loved everything. Thanks so much to Jimmy, who was always available and helpful. They offer a shuttle to and from the airport for 25 euros, and Jimmy can also take you anywhere for a good price.
If you prefer public transportation, there are stops 2-3 minutes away.
I had a large room with clean, fresh linens. Everything was there for a comfortable stay: a fully equipped kitchen with everything you need, a washing machine in the bathroom, and much more.
I will definitely come back

Homely feel with an amazing host and a lush garden
The homestay way beyond my expectations. Everything was great. The amazing host, the room, the transfer and the facilities inside the house were just as I expected from a stay that will have a long-lasting memory. The host was indeed very helpful with all my requests and also advised me to the transportation options within the island. The kitchen was well equipped will all the necessities needed to make a good meal. The room was big and spacious, and the bathroom was also quite roomy. In the garden, there were fruit and lime trees, which you can use in your cooking. Just ask the host's mother, who is very nice and kind. The location of this house is right up there on the hilly interior of the island, but there is a bus stop just five minutes' walk from the place. So, it is convenient after all.
The only thing the maybe could be better was the Wifi connection, which from time to time, was slow. But I believe that this is quite common in a remote place like this.
- LOCATION: is above Mountain beside French embassy on famous road connected “Victoria” city to the West coast. Bus St. is closed 50m away to arrive everywhere in island including SEZ-Airport via Victoria bus terminal where you can buy unlimited use tourist bus Card paid cash or card against SCR 100-190-350 for 1-4-8 days. Bus finish about 19:00 except in Sundays & Holidays and working with time schedule. Officially, checked big Bag is not allowed (There is no space, 5 seats per raw) but you actually still ride with bag. The best Beaches “Port Launay”, you can catch by 1 bus only #13 to the S.W. direction & “Beau Vallon” Beach catch by 2 buses to N.W. direction.
- Double ROOM with mountain view in upper floor is better than the description during the reservation includes small Fridge, 2 Windows, multi languages TV channels, (enough) ceiling Fan, Cupboard & Chair, and private Bath with hot water plus WF is existing and strong.
- HOTEL: is from about 6 rooms distributed in different levels. Large shared Kitchen with dining area at ground floor is complete include 24 hr. free (Water +Tea +Coffee +Sugar) and beside it shared Bathroom & Toilet serve 2 rooms. Garden is nice with fruits and different seats. There is another Sitting area at lower floor include shared TV plus small Safety Box. I didn’t use the Parking.
- STAFF: is Family run live in the same place were welcomy and helpful. They give many different Fruits. The Son picked me up from the Airport Free of charge because I reserved 6 nights and during the road to the hotel show me the East View point for Eden (Artificial) island plus after you checked me in, took me to the city at Victoria bus terminal to but the bus Card. Hotel Car to Airport = 25EUR /400SCR, to Ferry Port = 10EUR /150R, and 1-day use tour around the island = 90EUR /1500R.
- Private Bath: is without shampoo.
- Hotel: There is no atmosphere or night life.
Accueil chaleureux et grande gentillesse de Jimmy et Marianne dans cette jolie guest house au milieu d'une végétation luxuriante. Dans le jardin, des papayers bien sûr. Le petit-déjeuner, copieux et varié, est très bon.
