9.2/10 Wonderful! (5 reviews)

Great place to stay. Comfortable, clean, nice grounds with lots of walking paths. Very safe and there is a restaurant on the property, pool, gym and other great amenities. Excellent stay. My only word of advice is to make sure you have your reservation details ready when you arrive at the security gate. This is a gated community. We were given the apartment keys at the security gate. It wasn’t clear in the instructions after booking. But don’t let that stop you. We plan on staying here again.

9/10 Wonderful! (5,057 reviews)

The only thing preventing a 5-star review is that towels were removed from my room, and also from a friend’s room in a totally different floor. We arrived tired from the day and couldn’t take a shower for almost an hour and after 5 calls to the front desk. Other than that l, everything was great. Breakfast, amenities, response to requests… will definitely stay there again if I return to Panama!

![Selina Hostels at Playa Venao
The hostel is new and not finished yet, but it has a great design, is located directly at the beach and the staff is really cool. A con is that there is only one shop which has basically nothing and is really expensive; so you either have to bring your food or eat at the bar in the hostel.
The beach itself is good for surfers, but you can also enjoy the waves without a board. 
There are only two (or maybe three; nobody knows) buses from Pedasí to Playa Venao: once in the morning (I think at 7) and once at 12 o'clock. It takes around 1.5 hours.
