Our initial plan was to stay only a few days since we had other plans traveling around but we had to come back and stay at Papaya every time we returned to Maputo. Now we don’t even have to look for anything else. This hotel is a given for any future visits. Even our local friends were positivley surprised when we shared our experiences of this loving little Oasis. U get soap, shampoo and some lotion in your room and there is a self service fridge stocked w necessities- beer, coke, water. There is a small fridge in room and a shared kitchenette for basic food preparation. The pool area is super nice and relaxing! ##### Niclas Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Fubara Oct 22, 2024 ##### Fubara Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Simone Aug 11, 2024 ##### Simone Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2024 ## Explore a world of travel with Expedia - [Lodging](?equalTargetTab=tab-0) - [Flights](?equalTargetTab=tab-1) - [Packages](?equalTargetTab=tab-2) - [Cars](?equalTargetTab=tab-3) - [Vacation Rentals](?equalTargetTab=tab-4) - [Things to Do](?equalTargetTab=tab-5) - [Lidias Guest House](https://www.expedia.com/Maputo-Hotels-Lidias-Guest-House.h102511770.Hotel-Information) - [Southern Sun Maputo](https://www.expedia.com/Maputo-Hotels-Southern-Sun-Maputo.h661395.Hotel-Information) - [Polana Serena Hotel](https://www.expedia.com/Maputo-Hotels-Polana-Serena-Hotel.h46300.Hotel-Information) - [Blu Sky Hotel](https://www.expedia.com/Maputo-Hotels-Blu-Sky-Hotel.h20416417.Hotel-Information) - [Afrin Prestige](https://www.expedia.com/Maputo-Hotels-Afrin-Prestige.h3123188.Hotel-Information) - [Sundown Guest House Maputo](https://www.expedia.com/Maputo-Hotels-Sundown-Guest-House-Maputo.h18171459.Hotel-Information) - [Vila das Acácias](https://www.expedia.com/Maputo-Hotels-Vila-Das-Acacias.h36074171.Hotel-Information) - [Malagueta Inn](https://www.expedia.com/Maputo-Hotels-Malagueta-Inn.h22449008.Hotel-Information) - [Hotel Avenida](https://www.expedia.com/Maputo-Hotels-Hotel-Avenida.h2425538.Hotel-Information) - [Hotel Turismo](https://www.expedia.com/Maputo-Hotels-Hotel-Turismo.h2512355.Hotel-Information) - [Catembe Beach Lodge](https://www.expedia.com/Maputo-Hotels-Catembe-Beach-Lodge.h19290668.Hotel-Information) - [Pensao Martins](https://www.expedia.com/Maputo-Hotels-Pensao-Martins.h35546553.Hotel-Information) - [Radisson Blu Hotel & Residence, Maputo](https://www.expedia.com/Maputo-Hotels-Radisson-Blu-Hotel-Residence.h3968354.Hotel-Information) - [Otia](https://www.expedia.com/Maputo-Hotels-OTIA.h91881369.Hotel-Information) - [Ka Maxakeni Guest house](https://www.expedia.com/Maputo-Hotels-Ka-Maxakeni-Guest-House.h27604918.Hotel-Information) - [Hotel Africa Maputo Business](https://www.expedia.com/Maputo-Hotels-Hotel-Africa-Maputo-Business.h12498985.Hotel-Information) - [Resotel](https://www.expedia.com/Maputo-Hotels-Resotel.h11470367.Hotel-Information) - [Catembe Gallery Hotel](https://www.expedia.com/Maputo-Hotels-Catembe-Gallery-Hotel.h3940096.Hotel-Information) - [Villa Das Mangas Garden Hotel](https://www.expedia.com/Maputo-Hotels-Villa-Das-Mangas-Garden-Hotel.h11945166.Hotel-Information) - [Hotel Monte Carlo](https://www.expedia.com/Maputo-Hotels-Hotel-Monte-Carlo.h15978213.Hotel-Information) - [Flights to Maputo](https://www.expedia.com/Cheap-Flights-To-Maputo.d2401.Travel-Guide-Flights) - [Maputo Vacations](https://www.expedia.com/Maputo.d2401.Destination-Travel-Guides) - [Car rentals near Maputo](https://www.expedia.com/Car-Rentals-In-Maputo.d2401.Car-Rental-Guide) - [Maputo Vacation Rentals](https://www.expedia.com/Maputo-Vacation-Rentals.d2401.Travel-Guide-VacationRentals) - [Things to do in Maputo](https://www.expedia.com/Things-To-Do-In-Maputo.d2401.Travel-Guide-Activities)
