Delicious Food Experience

“The restaurant at The Seles Boutique Hotel offers a fantastic dining experience. I enjoyed a scrumptious breakfast that was available until noon, perfect for my laid-back mornings. The highlight was definitely the Uroa Brunch - it was absolutely fabulous! I also had some delectable seafood, including freshly prepared crab upon special request, so nice.” view full review

Vibrant Evening Entertainment

“I loved the live music in the evenings at The Seles! There was a local band and a DJ who played groovy tunes that created a lively yet relaxed atmosphere. Being part of the karaoke night added so much fun to my stay. Even with the serene beach surroundings, the entertainment provided just the right buzz!” view full review
