I had a great time at the Selina and everyone was very friendly! I didn’t know what time I’d arrive so I didn’t book any activities, but the front desk guy let me know what was still available and arranged it all for me! They have an excellent restaurant on the property which was great for me with no rental car. There were also nice places to just hang out and play pool or read a book with the sounds of nature around you. I had one of the private rooms and loved everything about it!

Reception lady must have had a bad day. She didn’t want to help us. Told us to wait for a coworker. Then 10 minutes later finally took us to our room herself. Later that night was annoyed when we had questions about the property. Felt singled out by her because we are not young like most other guests at this property. Restaurant staff was great!!! Neat property

A good option
Very convenient if you want to visit the cloud forest. Unfortunately it’s far from the town and restaurants so unless you’re driving your only choice is their own restaurant, which thankfully is pretty decent. Good space for parking and nice comfortable room, it’s a shame they don’t really clean them. Hair all over the bathroom and filthy floor.

The place had a cool look and feel but you could tell that the place is old. The receptionists were nice and helped with everything. It is far from the center though, so would recommend a car to get around.
