The facility has different types of accommodations, that can meet any budget and preferences. The place is serene as it has an actual creek running through it. Staff is full of local information to help with touring the area. The hotels restaurant Doba, makes dining easy and accessible. It is right in the heart of town.

Their cylinder pods, which I originally booked, have no circulation of air and it can get very humid. My second accommodation was better, but no AC, but there are fans. My particular room seemed to have some mold, also probably due to the humidity and air quality.

I'm on a round-the-world trip and Selena Hostel in Boquete is currently in my top 3 places out of all the accommodation I've stayed at in the last 7 months! The hostel itself is beautiful - the decoration, all the various activity and relaxation areas, the water stream running through the middle of it - and the staff are really lovely. Also, the adjoining restaurant (Dobo) is fantastic. I am very happy to recommend this place to anyone 😊

I have nothing negative to report about this place 👍

It was a amazing place to stay because it was quiet and the bed was comfortable. I have my privacy even if I was in a shared bedroom. I could do my yoga practice everyday in a cozy place. The staff was kind and very attentional with my needs. I was able to speak English French and spanish with the staff !

The only thing I have to report the booking.com ad indicate there will have activities inside Selina hostal but it wasn’t the case because it was low season. It’s really important to make a correction in your publicity because it’s a misleading publicity. Take you to make the change for the futur clients !

The pod was perfect for a few nights. There was room to store your bags under the bed, and hanging space as well as a bedside table to have out everything that you needed. There were ample toilets and showers that were kept clean. The social space of the hostel is gorgeous too, with a river running through it. Appreciated the welcome drink, a lovely rum cocktail, and met some lovely people as a result too. The communal kitchen was great, well equipped with lots of fridge space. Would 100% stay here again if in Boquete.

Loved everything about his place! A fancy, luxury hostel! Great location as Boquete is just one Main Street. Super comfortable beds with luxurious thick soft duvets which was such a nice treat from just sheets in other hostels! Everything is nice and new. Staff are great - big shout out to Jordan! HE IS THE BEST! So helpful and friendly and has been working in tourism in Boquete for years so he is so knowledgeable of the area! Restaurant has the best tequila passion fruit sangria! So many places to chill on the property.

That they allow kids to stay there. But again, it’s a fancy place and has more of a hotel vibe so I get it.

It was very convenient to have Panama Heavens office located on the property to help organize tours, activities and transfers. The aesthetic was beautiful with the river running through the property and nice outdoor social areas. Restaurant on property was also nice.

I was in a 4 person shared dorm and while there were only 2 of us in the room, it didn't appear the ensuite bathroom was ever cleaned throughout my 4 day stay. It was also very quiet with no social environment, however I think this was likely due to the protests happening at the time I visited (it didn't seem like there were many people on the property/in the town).

Stayed in a cylinder. As expected, very small and not much space for two people. Was clean and cozy though. Hot at night and no fan or A/C in the room, kept window and door open and night at the cost of a few mosquito bites. Bathroom was camping style, but fairly clean. Shower was great with good pressure and hot/cold water and shampoos. Garden very cozy with a river running through the place. Staff very friendly and the cutest hostel puppy. Restaurant was good also, make a 9$ breakfast. Walking distance to most things in Boquete.

Was as expected small and camping style so expected this. A fan would have been very nice.

The hotel has a cool vibe, great restaurant with lovely drinks and an amazing high quality breakfast. The design of the hotel with the river running through it is also quite nice (with lots of nice spaces to hang out in outdoors). The staff was friendly and booked us onto a tree trek tour. They also gave us lots of good recommendations for bars and places to eat in Boquete. The hotel also has a beautiful shared kitchen in the premises which I didn't use but I would use if I stayed here again.

My partner and I stayed in a cylinder tiny room (because all other private rooms were booked) which looked cool from the outside but had no fan, and was pretty inconvenient for two people (it's very small). It was also quite warm and had too little space to store anything since the room on the bottom is curved. Believe me after one night it gets pretty annoying, to not have any space at all. For the price you pay for them, I don't think they're worth it. The shared bathrooms and showers we're pretty gross. The shared bathrooms were always clogged even though they were getting cleaned quite often. I would definitely stay here again, but only in a private room (not in any room with shared toilets and shared showers).

We stayed in a cylinder room which was kinda cool and different (but actually a bit warm at night). Snug for two people but cute. We hadn't stayed at a Selina before so liked the vibe and decor, the communal kitchen was nice (could do with more of everything though - cutlery, crockery, tables!) but the outside spaces and the greenery and views were so lovely. I had hurt my foot so it was a great place to sit and chill.

Perhaps fans for inside the cylinders as it is hot at night and we were right near the shared bathrooms so having the window open (it has a mossie net) meant we got all the light and noise from the shared bathrooms or were too hot! Maybe also if you could ask the Gardening team to not start gardening right outside the cylinders early in the morning that'd be nice. Getting woken up by sweeping seems to be a Central American thing :) More equipment in the kitchens needed.
