Beach huts are very basic, very very very basic, you get the view that's all. They look fab from the outside but not too pretty on the inside. I'm our experience Palolem beach huts are overpriced for what you get but you've little choice price wise, there's a cartel running here I think, if you stay on the beach it's very noisy, noisy people, noisy barking dogs, horrible noisy crows. These huts have the small benefit that they are located on the quieter end of the beach.

Great stay, service was amazing with the best food on the beach, staff always willing to help when needed. rooms cleaned on request beach towels provided, always get a sun lounger too. One of the only places on the beach that takes card as well so for a small 2% charge it made our life easy! will definitely be going back!!!

Visited Palolem for a couple of nights and stayed at Papillon beach huts. Huts were right on the sea front. Lovely balcony to sit on and watch the world go by. Comfortable beds and a hot shower for a change. Restaurant was good. Big choice of menu. Staff very attentive and friendly. Great place to watch the sunset. Would definitely return.

Very bad and horrible experience, Not worth for what we paid , Hot water was not provided, but was mentioned in the confirmation email , hot water will be provided. Rooms not cleaned , No clearance, Washrooms are terrible, with WC shaking , mosquitoes , Charging extra 2% on debit cards while checking out , Heaven doesn't know how to speak, nor understand basic English.....Guys thinks twice before you book this place....Confirm every needs and requirements on emails before you ever check in.....

Response from Papillon_Beach, Owner at Papillon Beach Huts
Responded 9 Mar 2017
Dear guest, We would like to apolagise if you did not enjoy your stay, our guests comfort is a priority for us. Unfortunately with our Basic beach huts they do not have hot water, all of our luxury huts have hot water 24/7. Being one of only a few premises on Palolem that can take credit and debit cards, their is a standard surcharge of 2%. This is applicable for all card payments. Rooms are cleaned every 2 days or on request, as you were only staying 2 nights and were not in the huts in the day time your room wasn't cleaned. Once again we apolagise that you did not enjoy your stay, we work hard to keep our customers happy and hope to see you again soon. Papillon

I arrived just before Christmas and stayed well into mid January and enjoyed every minute here. The staff are so friendly and incredibly accommodating especially to a single traveller like myself. I was treated like family and felt as if I was at home in my own comfortable atmosphere. The rooms are clean and come with bug nets with and incredible view of South palolem beach. The owner (the heaven) has gone above and beyond to make sure my stay here is safe and affordable. He has done everything he could to accommodate my needs and I would absolutely recommend papillon to anyone wanting a relaxed and comfortable stay in Goa. Extra point: money issues here in India have been difficult but at palolem you can keep a tab during your stay and pay with card for food, drink and even…

Papillon is a great place to stay - right at the end of the beach next to the picturesque rocks which can be climbed to watch the awesome sunset. Food is great - both local Indian cuisine and the more continental dishes - never had a bad meal and don't need to eat anywhere else on the beach because the food was so good. The huts are exactly what you need with excellent mosquito nets and comfy mattresses. You can pay for nicer huts that have open showers etc but even the standard ones are great. The best part of papillon however is the manager Heaven. He is so welcoming, will cater to your every need and does everything he can to ensure you have the best stay. All the staff are wonderful and I would highly recommend it to anybody - will definitely return here next time I visit!

We, 3 families stayed for 2 nights in Feb 16. While on check-out, made a payment of 2463/- on a Credit Card against food bill, the swipe machine didn't print the payment slip, however I'd got the payment made message from the banker. The owner said the payment is not processed & asked for another Card, which I handed over. Again on other Card the payment was done & with some tweaks, the Card swipe machine printed the payment slip this time. I was assured that the payment was not received on 1st Card. However when both my credit card statements came, the payment was done by both the bankers. Since then I'm following up with the Hotel, with all proofs of payment done twice, only to get no response or avoidance. Since it's not a huge amount to call for consumer court help, but it…

Lovely stay at Papillon Beach Huts! The manager, Heaven, made us feel completely welcome from the minute we arrived. The Huts are nice and clean and right on the beach front. The bar / lounge area is very comfy with big sofas and the option to eat dinner on the sand in front of the sea! The food is also excellent with a huge choice of different dishes and the waiters are so friendly! Getting money is a huge problem in India at the moment, but Heaven has been able to help us with cash which has been a life saver!! Thanks Papillon - until next time!

On a recent two week trip to India we finished with 5 nights here and loved it. We are budget travelers really but this time only having two weeks away we could try out somewhere that was a little more expensive than the average beach huts along Palolem beach. It was worth the step up in price as we had a really nice guy with a great view from both the balcony and also the bed if we had the door open. The bed was by far the most comfy we slept in out of 5 places we stayed at on our trip with really nice clean linen. The place is very relaxing and has a lovely atmosphere. They can arrange everything like scooter hire and taxis. We ate breakfast here most mornings and had a few other meals here also. The food was really great. The other thing that stood out was how friendly the…
