Room very small. Bathrooms dirty. Comen area do not look like the photos. No room cleaning especialy with it being at the beach. Overpriced rooms and overpriced bar drinks. To leave or enter the propery the guard is very rude to open the gate. The front desk personel do not enform you of the property amenoties sich as a common kitchen etc.

My home away from home! A comfortable and exciting place to be. The staff is fantastic, a great energy to be surrounded in and it’s so close to the beach. I highly recommend you stay here when you visit Tamarindo. PURA VIDA!!!

While the staff was very friendly, the location convenient, the private suite was beautiful and I enjoyed the night market activity and welcome drinks, there were several issues during my stay. In five days, my room was only cleaned once and they left a dirty rag on my nightstand. There was no gas in the ovens to cook, the TV didn't work, there was a mini bar menu but no mini bar, there was a coffee machine in my room but no coffee, I asked twice to have the light and tap fixed in my bathroom and nothing happened. The kitchen was missing several things like sharp knives, cutting boards, pens and stickers to label food, no "free" food section which is very common in hostels, basics like oil and pepper. Also, I asked for information on an activity and never heard back. At checkout, they said I hadn't paid when I already had. This is a party hostel and pretty loud so great if you're a social butterfly, otherwise not so much. It was a shame so many things went wrong! Not sure I would recommend.

The property was unliveable, we had to leave and buy a different hotel. Never received a refund, although we checked out within an hour.

A few disappointments. It's a hostel and you have to hide or walk far to smoke a cigarette or drink a beer. The restaurant is very costy and they don't allow us to sit by the pool with our own food or drinks. Bathrooms were not so clean and our room in 4 days was never cleaned.

Arrived to the property with one booking for 4 nights, initially they couldn't find our booking but turns out that they had overbooked the rooms. We ended up having to move rooms nearly every day - and were initially expected to spend the time between check out and check in without a room, until we had a stern word with management that this was unacceptable. Reception staff and management made out that they were doing us a favour by finding us a room and blaming us for booking through Expedia - we did suggest that perhaps they shouldn't list the hotel on Expedia if they don't want people to book through this website.... The bar/restaurant staff were amazing though!!

I was expecting a lot more from Selina, a chain which I like a lot. The room was a tiny caravan, the staff was not welcoming, the check-in was super slow, and the breakfast was not good. The atmosphere was good, and the hot water was fine. I wouldn't recommend.

The rooms were small. the shower flooded the bedroom. the receptionist didn’t do anything except bring extra towels. we didn’t get any kind of compensation and all of our things got wet. When we checked out we told them about everything that happened but they didn’t care.

This property is still in the works , the room I got wasn’t the one in the pic posted on . So felt deceived . The staff is wonderful . It would be nice if they would inform the residents before they turn off the water for hours some days .

We found it a bit overpriced, and not so clean. Shower was ok at the morning, but throughout the day not so clean. Not the best Selina we stayed at so far

Great location! I think this is a great stay for a solo traveler especially since there’s a sense of community and activities daily

Having stayed in a number of Selinas, this one is by far the worst. The place looked like it had been bombed. For what you pay there are far better options in Tamarindo. This place had no hot water and the locking system never worked properly. The location in central, but then again everything in Tamarindo is central, it is a small place.

Really liked the 4-bed dorm (small dorm). The 6-bed dorm was a little bit to small so it got tight. Nice bar and pool area! Amazing staff! Location is perfect; really close to the parties (just 3-5 min walking) but still in a quiet street.
