Selina Maderas

As the second time me and my wife went to selina we are more than glad to say is a really good timing. Quite relax , good customer service and good fixing any inconvinience.

I recently spent a week at Selina Maderas, specifically for the co-working space since I work remotely. I had stayed here last October but this time around was even better. The kitchen facilities were improved - it was closed off and clean. However, mostly I was impressed with the staff and services. Gerald always had a big smile to greet me and was quick to answer any questions or requests. If the electricity went out (which it does at time in rainy season) he was able to get the generator working quickly to restore internet. Oscar stays busy with activities for guests to enjoy like Paint night and Trivia. I also had the honor of joining him in some Karaoke duos. The vibe here is light and fun. And don't forget it boasts a refreshing, large pool with surrounding deck for you to lounge. The hostel is not far from Playa Maderas where you can surf or just enjoy the beauty of the beach. I stayed in a private room, and it was very quiet in the evening and also close to the excellent co-working space on top of the hill. There is a convenient store located with a nearby restaurant called Machete where they also bake fresh bread and have a weekly pizza night.

Staying at Selina's hostel in Maderas for a week was an experience I will cherish for a long time. From the moment I arrived, the warmth and friendliness of the staff were palpable, creating an inviting atmosphere that felt like a home away from home. One aspect that stood out was the exceptional service provided by the bartenders, David and Samir. Their welcoming nature and eagerness to go above and beyond made me feel like family. Their eagerness to make everyone feel welcome from the moment they walked into the hostel was truly unique. The hostel itself boasts a charming location, offering a blend of tranquility and adventure. The communal areas were always clean and well-maintained, fostering a sense of community among the guests. Whether it was lounging by the pool or participating in one of the many activities organized by the hostel, there was never a dull moment. The accommodations were comfortable and thoughtfully designed, ensuring a restful night's sleep after a day of exploring the beautiful surroundings. The hostel's commitment to sustainability was also evident in various aspects of its operation, aligning with the values of many travelers today. It was amazing to see the management team drive down to the beach for a sunset beach cleanup. Overall, my stay at Selina's hostel in Maderas was a delightful experience. The friendly staff, especially the remarkable service and close proximity to the beach made it a place I would eagerly return to and recommend to others seeking a memorable stay at playa maderas. The WiFi, staff, and accommodations truly can’t be beat in Playa Maderas and I look forward to coming back in the near future. Thank you for an amazing trip Selinas!

Salinas at maderas was one-one the best experience I have had, despite I have stayed at many Salinas in Central amarica Grab a drink in the bar, and ask for the bartender "Carlos from Granada". Despite being a bit of a character, his amazing drinks, crazy stories and passion of singing hakuna matata will give you a true local experience. Carlos from granada will provide you with travel advises, and tell you information regarding animals in the area, which was extremely usefull for me as a solo traveller in nigeragua.

Common areas especially communal kitchen, dining area not cleaned well. Library full of spiders and not cleaned. My room had wooden shutters and no glass on the windows. Spider found in room, had to buy insecticide. Concrete floors no rugs. Good air conditioning.

Located in the foothills about 600 meters from Playa Maderas, Selina Maderas is the best hostel I have ever been a guest at. With a modern yet rustic and festive vibe, an excellent and helpful staff, state of the art pool you definitely want to stay here if visiting this beach and area. The co working space is excellent with views of the mountains, air conditioning, and great Wi-Fi speed. I teach online and did not have any issues. There is plenty to do in the evening and you can arrange a tour, or just chill in any of the comfortable rooms, whether opting for a shared or private room. I stayed in both. I definitely would like to visit again. If you surf, you can rent a board here and pick it up at the beautiful Playa Maderas. Thank you to the wonderful staff for being so accommodating and kind.

Staff is not well trained and didnt know its amenities. Place looked dirty and not well maintained. Breakfast ok.

Bad service, horrible check in, bad room swaps. List goes on…

Very disappointing! We stay at Selina in Granada and we loved our stay so we decided to stay in Selina Maderas. The employees were not really welcoming, always on their phone. We had no explanation about what to do in the area. We had a shared bathroom, it was always full of sand and hair, not really clean at all! Not even talking about the prices!!! It cost twice the price than everywhere else and the cocktails were served in very small glass. The food is average and also crazy expensive for the area. I would not recommand this place!
