We were moved to Selina south due to renovations at Selina north. Rooms were great. Aircon worked well. Good amount of space for a couple. Staff were very helpful at getting things sorted. You are provided tickets to eat at the local Costa Rican restaurant on the main road. The food is tasty, hearty and clean.
The instructors determine the best spot and time to surf so it can change daily. They push you on to waves and give you tips. This is not a surf camp, it's more a taster of what surfing can be like. The instructors are great fun and they do a lot of work to let you on the waves.
Excellent place, super clean, the food very good. Staff too were good people, especially Junior! Surf lessons package was perfect for me
