셀리나 보케테(Selina Boquete)

We had the best time, the rooms are very clean and the employees are super helpful especially Jordan at the reception. Highly recommend this place to anyone that likes hostel. This place is also very beautiful and they serve great breakfast.

We stayed at the Selina in Boquete for two nights and are completely convinced. The hostel itself is clean and incredibly beautiful. However, we have particularly positive memories of the staff. We had some problems with our transfers due to the Easter holidays, so we contacted Selina in advance and asked for help. Jordan, one of the employees, showed great commitment, booked transfers for us and made phone calls to bus companies. I have never experienced this level of service before. The Selina is really lucky to have such an employee on the team. Thank you very much for these two wonderful days in Boquete.

The Selina Boquete is more of a hostel than a hotel. The grounds are pleasant and relaxing. The staff are friendly and helpful. Our room was quite bare, which is fine. However, the price for what we received was too high. Our room did not resemble the photos online. We paid a similar price for much better accommodations throughout Panama. Our reservation did not include breakfast or any housekeeping during our stay. We had to empty our trash ourselves. I don't mind doing that as long as the room is priced accordingly.

the treatment of the receptionists at all times very attentive, the food of the place very good and the activities they offer are very good. the room very clean. something that I liked is that it had conditioner, shampoo and body soap. overall an excellent stay highly recommended

We were booking Selina Hostel on our way through Panama and it was the best choice we could have made. It‘s central in Boquete, has very friendly and helpful staff and a great area around it to enjoy and work at the same time! We can recommend it for everyone who is traveling to Boquete, families - couples - groups!

Softopening in June. So the hostel is newly opened. The vibes, food, and Place is very lovely. The staff is very helpful. So definitively a recommandation and would book again! Also there is a tour office at Selina Hostel where you can book all the nice tours in boquete.

The hostel is amazing - great location, awesome staff (big thanks to Jordan! :) ), the located restaurant is great and uses super high quality food. We stayed in one of the concrete barrels, which are tiny, but cute. We can recommend it to solo travellers too!

Here’s what you can expect at the Selina in Boquete! I stayed there for 3 nights. I have travelled to more than 50 countries and I have never seen a more dangerous hotel. Every 5 feet, there is a falling hazard—uneven concrete because of tree roots, concrete that just rises or slopes for no apparent reason; steps that are very high, high, medium, or low. The worst part of these falling hazards is that 90% of the steps and slopes have NO marker. You have to constantly look down so that you don’t trip and fall. It's as if they read the Fall Prevention tips and made sure to break every tip, thereby maximizing your chances of a fall. There is NO way to control room temperature. It was 65 degrees outside. There is no safe in the room. The bathroom sink does not have a sink stopper. You have to WALK to the lobby to ask someone to lift the lid so that water can do down the sink. Coffee creamer and coffee are in a jar, maximizing the risk of cross-contamination, and food-borne illness. There is no spoon in the room. You get to WALK to the lobby to request a spoon, because there is no phone in the room. Half of the towels have threads hanging from the edges. You will receive ONE roll of toilet tissue. There are NO extra rolls in the bathroom. If you run out of tissue, you will need to WALK for a few minutes to the lobby to request one. There is a noticeable pattern of mildew/mold in the bathroom caulking. The wooden coffee/tea stirrers are UNCOVERED, just sitting in a dirty tray. No better way to increase your risk of food-borne illness! When your neighbor takes a shower, you hear the water running. You will spend no less than an hour for any restaurant meal. The servers greet you with a silent gaze and hand you the menu. They present the meal in silence. No chance of them checking in to see if you need anything. If you try to call them, they just ignore you and continue talking with each other. They make you wait for so long for your meal that breakfast cannot take less than an hour. Housekeeping staff came to my room, placed two towels on the bed and LEFT THE BED UNMADE. So I got to walk to reception (several minutes) to ask someone to come and make the bed. If you stay here, you will be sorry. I couldn’t wait to leave. Instead of looking at and enjoying nature, you spend your time navigating every step to make sure that you don’t fall! How did this place pass inspection?

We stayed in the outdoor cabins which offered us an amazing camping-like experience! Super clean and cozy! Nothing to complain. Tipp: do not check-in with „non flexible“ luggage (the cabins are very small, only our backpacks fittet under the bed)
