Hey Frank,
I have not stayed at La Papaya, but maybe I can help a little.
We stayed directly above it at Temptress, a 2BR, last July. What I can tell you is that it's located up Rock Ridge Road, the first left past the Westin heading out of town, which you probably already knew. It looks very nice from the road with a privacy wall and gate to enter to the pool area. The views are excellent. My personal opinion is that in villas with lower level bedrooms, they are often not as nice as the upper level ones. Often the view is not as good and sometimes they have a bit of a basement-y feel to them. We usually factor this in when we split the rent, or switch rooms mid-trip to keep it fair. I don't know if this applies to La Papaya, but from the pictures, it appears the lower two bedrooms are smaller and they share a bath.
I think it looks like a great house, great location, fairly new, with excellent views and privacy, at a good price. We would definitely rent it if it were available at a time we were going with more people, and I'm kinda picky.
One good thing to know, when we stayed at Temptress, we could hear the people talking below us at La Papaya. A normal speaking voice didn't carry, but most of their boisterous conversations sounded like they were on our deck.
Somebody had a potty mouth
but in a drunk hilarious kind of way. I don't think the acoustics work the other way or else they would have heard us laughing our butts off at them.
I hope this helps. Ya'll are going to have a great time.
