I highly recommend this hostel to anyone looking to stay in Santa Teresa. The coworking space is amazing with reliable wifi, and the amenities of the property are great and clean. When I was there some of the bathroom doors didn’t properly lock, but other than that the facilities were flawless and cleaned multiple times a day. The Location is great, just across the street from playa Carmen surf beach and they have boards available for rent. The staff are extremely kind and very helpful, especially Mariano. They are a huge part of what make this hostel so unique and great.

I loved my stay here. It’s right beside the beach and the staff was incredibly helpful and friendly. Specifically Bryan who works at front desk was very helpful with giving us tips only the locals know while providing great suggestions for activities and food spots. Martina was also incredibly friendly and hospitable. She was very welcoming and kind, I genuinely made friendships with these people. I highly recommend.

I recently stayed at Selina while solo traveling, and it was an incredible experience! The atmosphere is perfect for meeting new people, but it’s also great if you just want to chill and enjoy some alone time. The facilities were clean and well-maintained, and the vibe was super welcoming. A special shoutout to Martina, the host—she is AMAZING! She went above and beyond to make sure I had everything I needed and gave me the best recommendations for local spots to check out. Her energy and kindness truly made my stay unforgettable.

I recently stayed at Selina South in Santa Teresa, Costa Rica, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The hostel has everything you’d hope for in a stay: a relaxed vibe, clean facilities, and a prime location just minutes from the beach. But what truly sets this place apart is the incredible staff. Bryan and Martina went above and beyond to make my stay memorable. Bryan is the epitome of hospitality—always smiling, approachable, and genuinely passionate about helping guests have a great time. Whether it was organizing group dinners, offering tips on the best surf spots, or just chatting about life in Costa Rica, he made everyone feel at home. Martina was equally fantastic. Her energy and warmth were infectious, and she has a knack for creating a welcoming community among the guests. She was quick to help with any questions or recommendations, from where to find the best local food to helping coordinate transportation. Martina’s attention to detail ensured everything ran smoothly, and her kindness made a lasting impression. Together, Bryan and Martina made this hostel feel like a home away from home. Their effort and genuine care for the guests turned a great trip into an unforgettable one. If you’re headed to Santa Teresa, do yourself a favor and stay at Selina South. You won’t regret it!

Great hostel! Smaller and quieter, rooms are clean and they have what you need for coworking and cooking. Front desk was very helpful and Catu, the yoga teacher, was excellent! I loved her class and would go back again.
