Great location and super helpful staff at the front desk. Our room was a bit dark and gloomy but fair for the price.

Absolutely over rated.. Extremely and I mean, extremely low value for your money, the room was a disgrace, the bathroom is a hygiene hazard.
Staff in the restaurant is very nice and friendly, not so much on the lobby.
Breakfast was very good, but the rooms.. What an experience. 😂😂😂
Definetely not the right place to stay in tamarindo.

Service was friendly and helpful. The Latin dance night and morning yoga were great activities, and the welcome drink was a nice introduction.

Well… one year later I’m extremely disappointed with my stay at Selina Tamarindo. I paid €150 for an activity that was canceled, and despite multiple diplomatic follow-ups on my part, I was never refunded. They kept my money without any justification, which is unacceptable and shows a complete lack of professionalism. Furthermore, this is the only place where I was not allowed to stay with the person I had booked with at the same time. This is a disgrace for an establishment that claims to provide quality services. Place might be nice but be careful when you give them money.
