A Name Born from Love: The Story Behind Selenya
Every great story has a beautiful beginning, and ours is no different. The name "Selenya" holds a special place in our hearts, as it was lovingly crafted from the names of the owner's two precious daughters. This personal touch reflects the warmth and family values that form the foundation of everything we do.
Established in 2019, Selenya began with a heartfelt vision: to offer guests a meaningful experience that brings them closer to nature and the rich cultural heritage of the region. From the very beginning, our goal has been to create a space where visitors can feel a deep connection—with the land, the traditions, and the stories that make this place so special.
"Of course hospitality is never just about a place to stay. We want our places and spaces to help you reconnect and explore what it means to be mentally, physically, spiritually and emotionally happy."
