Where you’ll rest…
Welcome to your home away from home where comfort meets cleanliness with views so lush, you’ll be jumping out of bed to start your day! All of our rooms are equipped with brand new hypoallergenic, pillowtop beds and high quality sheets to make your sleep amazing. We know the importance of a good night’s rest and the pleasure of waking up rejuvenated to the sounds of toucans lulling you awake in the morning.
The sustainable architectural design of our rooms incorporate cross ventilation through our large windows and an industrial-powered fan helps move fresh air in, eliminating the need for an energy-consuming air conditioner. Our building is designed along the solar solstice paths so no matter what time of year you visit, the warmth of the sun will never shine into your room keeping it comfortable and temperate throughout the day. We understand that everyone has different needs when it comes to temperature and for this reason we have added energy efficient AC inverter units to all of our rooms.
Selvática offers two double rooms, a triple room, and a 5-bed luxury dorm room with one individual bed and 4 full size beds (two lofted and two grounded). All of our rooms feature ensuite bathrooms with hot and cold water showers and eco flush toilets. Each bed is equipped with an electrical outlet and personal reading light. Our triple and double rooms offer additional patio seating overlooking our gardens and pool.
