Very good

Loved the TeePee huts in the canopy. Pure relaxation and pristine quiet. Staff was topknotch and always involved with the guests. Worthy of a redo but we will fly into Bocas next time. Driving to Almirante was challenging and lengthy.
I love Selina Red Frog - very beautiful jungle location and great decor. Have stayed here at least 3 times when visiting Panama. Not right on the beach, but the A/C makes it worth it. The service at the restaurant was ridiculously terrible. I do not have words to describe how indifferent, slow and rude our waitress was. But don't let this stop you from staying here. Eat somewhere else.
Amazing location , adorable rooms , nice common area with pool tables , very dirty common kitchen

Disliked: Room comfort
$3 Snickers???
It is called Selina at red frog beach....it is not on the beach....it is 20 min walk to the beach....a snickers bar is $3 and drinks $8 , pancakes $11 and the 10 min boat to get there is $7 each...that is a joke. We will never go back. A big rip off.
all the staff is awesome: Melanie at reception, China, Kapi, Evelyn at the bar, the house keeping and more. even the dogs were great. the food was muy bueno. it was a positive and joyful vibe.
Beautiful place in the middle of the jungle and about five minutes from the beach.
Very relaxing, nice vibe, no loud music. Just loud enough to keep a nice atmosphere.
Young people working there are also very nice and easy going. Most, if not all of them are at least bilingual.
One cool thing is that Selina organizes different group walks such as to a far away beach, star gazing on the beach, or searching in the jungle for wildlife.
Selina was extremely run down. Very bad service. Extremely dirty. No food available everyday at the restaurant. Wifi was horrible. Rooms we unfinished and had bugs.
They dont even finish the rooms with curtains. They just spray paint windows. Horrible place.
