The hostel is in the centre of Santa Elena. Everything is within walking distance. The common areas are spacious and very welcoming. The kitchen is a bit simple but sufficient for simple cooking (since it is outdoors, it can get a bit cold at night some days).
The shared rooms are simple but spacious.
The staff was very attentive at all times and informed us of the activities to do in the area and directly booked the ones we were interested in without us having to do anything.

It was a beautiful property! Like a treehouse tucked away in the jungle, but right on the main ***** 5 mins across the street from playa Carmen. Close to great cafes, restaurants, and convenience stores. Our check in process went smoothly and the private family room was perfect, except that we noticed quite quickly the AC wasn’t working on the 2nd level in the bedrooms. The staff were so kind and quick to work hard and fix it by the time we went got back for dinner. 10/10 customer service. Would absolutely stay here again!

This hotel offers the WORST service I've ever experienced. You're served by inexperienced people with no managerial supervision. The employees don't communicate with each other. I missed my ride because an employee "forgot" to put me on the ride, and they didn't do anything about it. I had to go to another hotel to get a ride even though I was staying at the Santa Teresa Sur. HORRIBLE HOTEL, HORRIBLE SERVICE.

Booked a 4 bed dorm but when I checked into the property, the dorm was attached to a massive kitchen/communal space with an 8 bed dorm at the other end. There was only 1 bathroom between us, there was a $5 charge for a towel (there were not even hand towels or bath mats provided in the bathroom), barely any windows and the air con did not work. Definitely not the worst hostel I have stayed in but far from the best.

Selina South
Pros: great location, friendly staff. Cute decorative touches, lots of places to lounge, nice little pool, great workout area (no weights). Tasty food truck!
Cons: The curtains don't keep out any light, and there is construction everywhere starting super early. My room was on the second floor and above me sounded like about a thousand pigeons. Inability to sleep was my biggest bummer.

The hostel was very nice. Due to a system error, I was upgraded to a single room free of charge. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The kitchen was very clean and was regularly cleaned and tidied. Unfortunately, the only place to sit or lie down at the pool was the floor.

Love Selina santa teresa south! The pool is so clean and beautiful and they clean the rooms if you want. They upgraded us to a private room but I’ve stayed in the shared bunks and it was very nice and clean too. The people here are super nice and friendly. Also monkeys. Lots of monkeys.
