Amazing place to stay. Selina is clean and completely safe as it has security after hours. Jaco walk is easily accessible for lunch/dinner. Selina also has great food options. Right next to the beach and pool is great too.

Beautiful hotel with a pool right on the beach. Was mostly young people so we felt a bit old! No beach chairs and such. The staff was amazing and very helpful in every way!
