Selina Jaco, hotel in Jacó

Set in Jacó, 70 km from Manuel Antonio National Park, Selina Jaco boasts a year-round outdoor pool and terrace. Guests can enjoy the on-site restaurant.

This is an amazing all-in-one hostel for beginner as well as more experienced surfers. It’s located right in front of a surf break! It pretty much has anything you might need on a surf vacation - showers by the beach, bar+restaurant with pretty good choice and quality of food, pool, massage cabinet, yoga mats as well as yoga classes and other free activities, a coworking space and more! They offer beginner surf lessons and some soft top and short boards for rent. But I was able to find a hardtop longboard at a rental 5min walk away.

    The best thing is Jaco’s long sandy beach with the warm ocean lapping the shore. I would highly recommend the hotel Club del Mar as a perfect place to enjoy the beach and sunsets whilst wrapped in the comforts of this lovely hotel at the quiet end of the beach

    Lot's of skunks, hookers and coke. None of which I enjoy. Everyone says its to close to San Jose. But, the surf was excellent when we arrived. Awesome break! The New Jersey pizza joint was the best food and company, also the creeper. Its best to be in your domicile by at least 9pm and damn sure don't go out after 11pm. Good luck.

    Jaco was a fun place to visit. Stayed five days. Eating out in Jaco - ate some great local food. Safe to walk around. Nobody on street begging. Had to go to the private clinic and they were great. Food in town was considerably cheaper than on the resort.

    Appealing for partygoers or college students.

    Appealing for partygoers or college students. A bit too touristy and expensive for what is offered. My young adult children were solicited to purchase drugs and there were a few panhandlers and junkies on strip (not aggressive though). Jaco is walkable and the beach is nice for sunsets and surfing, but not swimming. We left La Fortuna to go to Jaco and it was a big contrast in experience. Overall, had a decent time and captured great pictures, but I wouldn’t run back.

    I have no idea why there are so many comments online about this town being a must visit location. I couldn’t disagree more. It’s reminds me of a dive college down. The large resorts and condo building are an eyesore. The beach isn’t nearly as conducive to surfing as many of the other beach towns in Costa Rica. I love this country but I’ll never return to Jaco.

    Vista Hermosa is about 5 mi from downtown Jaco, which is excellent if you’re not into crowds and nightlife. If you do not have a car you need to get a taxi if you need banking or groceries. Airport transfer is CASH ONLY, and ATMs are downtown. So make sure to bring enough cash to avoid the taxi hassle and transaction fees

    Everything. It was sparkling, clean, spacious, with a wonderful balcony, view, and a great vibe. The staff, especially Adele in the office were lovely. We were able to cook our meals and also go out where we wanted to. It was the best being able to go in the pool and then walk right onto the beach and back-and-forth all day long. Of all the places we stayed in our Costa Rica trip, this apartment was by far the family favorite. Also take a surf lesson from Julian, the resident instructor! Pura Vida!

    Really nice hotel just outside of the main town of Jaco - within a 10 minute drive to the restaurants and the main attractions. The staff member who originally checked us in when we were early and served breakfast was very friendly and welcoming. The staff member showing us around the room felt a bit like hiring a car where he was showing you all the damage and that you would be charged for replacements or further damage caused to the room (something ive never experienced before!)

    Beautiful spacious apartment in an amazing setting right on the beach front. I arranged all the bookings for our tour of Costa Rica and this was the only time when we entered the apartment the other three people all said ‘Wow - this is amazing’. Everything about the apartment was high quality - bedding, towels, furniture, bathrooms, equipment provided.
