Location

Selina Beach Hotel Jaco is located near all the best spots in town and has everything you need to feel right at home in this surfer’s paradise. Located just a short walk from Playa Hermosa, a dream spot for surf aficionados looking to ride the region’s best waves, the Selina Jaco hotel is home to local experiences unlike any other.

Get caught up in Jaco’s anything to goes lifestyle. Ride on horseback through the rainforest or take an ATV tour to waterfalls and beaches off the beaten path. Get your adrenaline pumping with our surf lessons or zipline through the forest canopy. Selina stands out for its connectivity, sense of community, and commitment to sustainability. Jaco truly has everything: every modern convenience, great cuisine, shopping, and an all to you to can to handle nightlife.

Jaco has incredible year to round surf conditions for all surfing levels, probably one of the best places worldwide to improve your surfing or learn to surf for the first time. The long beach of Jaco features a small beach break with lots of peaks. The waves break over a sandy bottom to the right and left. Although the waves have an average quality with ordinary power, they remain consistent throughout the year and provide a great base for all sorts of surfers. Unlike other beaches, a southern swell creates small surf as it is protected by a western bay. 

The Place

Located on the sandy shores of the Punteras Region, Selina Jaco is the ultimate hideaway for sunseekers, surfers, and nature-lovers. Surrounded by views of Miro Mountain and beautiful beaches, embrace the true essence of Costa Rica at our eco-friendly hotel. Just a short walk from the buzzing Main Street, spend your days exploring the town or experience the best surf breaks in the area.

Along with a range of beautifully-designed rooms and unique accommodation, other on-site features include a swimming pool, a beachfront bar and restaurant, a shared kitchen, a CoWork, a wellness area, and a movie room.

Rise with the sun and enjoy a smoothie bowl at our beachfront cafe before riding the first swells of the day with our surf instructors. Spend the afternoon getting productive at our CoWork, trek through the rainforest, and catch the stunning sunset. Back at Selina, order a drink at the bar before dancing barefoot under the stars at a silent beach rave.

Hi Hunter!

Thank you for your review! All of the feedback provided will help us it will help us improve the service we offer in our surf packages. Unfortunately, the surf package you booked of 5 Nights does not include transportation, this is only for Surf Guiding. Communication is something that we consider valuable in our brand, which is why we will always try to make it that way. Thank you again for letting us know what to improve to make the best experience our guests could have.


How did you like the surf lessons?

     

This review will only apply to surfers in the intermediate+ category, as I did not take nor require beginner lessons like many visitors. I am an intermediate-advanced level surfer - comfortable in bigger surf, and someone who brings 2-3 boards on most trips I take for context. The biggest thing I personally look for when choosing a surf camp is that part of the surf package includes a guide and a vehicle who transports more apt surfers around to the best waves each day depending on the swell, tides, etc. This has been my experience on the handful of solo trips I've taken in multiple countries.

The Selina Jaco page (as of 11/21/2022) indicates "Surf Guide: Surf guidings are perfect for you as it include transport to/from beaches with the best conditions for your level. Our staff are here to accommodate all your needs & are equipped with the best local knowledge as well as passion for surfing." I used this information to book Selina expecting a guide and transportation similar to other camps (I had also confirmed this via the chat feature prior to booking), only to find out that the only lessons they were providing were for beginners, located solely at Jaco beach. After a lot of back-and-forth I was able to have the surf lessons portion of my package refunded, however I was still left without transportation or a guide to help point me in the right direction. One of the surf instructors at the hotel (the surf lessons are not provided by Selina, but a contracted local surf school) provided me with a local surfer who fortunately was willing to help me out. Overall, the confusion about what exactly was offered created a lot of stress I was hoping to avoid on a vacation, and I would not have booked with Selina had I known the reality of the surf guiding situation. The "lessons" portion of the Selina Jaco page needs to be updated to reflect the reality of what is available to travellers.

Wonderful!!!
We are delighted with the friendliness, facilities, quality and service !! Magnificent surf club, very friendly instructors !! They got my children and I to stand on the surf board within an hour. Swimming pool was a nice addition as was the restaurant on the beach.

Playa Jaco is a surfer’s sanctuary. There is no doubt that Jaco is one of the best places to begin your surfing journey. Beginners can learn to ride here and veterans can get their groove back. The long beach of Jaco features a small beach break with lots of peaks, with an ordinary power. The waves break over a sandy bottom to the right and left.
