Toño el Alguacil, Selaya Overview
Toño el Alguacil is located in Selaya, Spain. Rated 10.0 out of 10 based on 1 guest reviews.
Toño el Alguacil is a family-friendly stay in Selaya, Cantabria, Spain, set at c/ La Salud nº 2 and suited to travelers who want a calm base for exploring the region by car. The property is pet-friendly, and the overall guest experience is anchored by a practical, home-style setup: family rooms, a terrace for downtime, and BBQ facilities for relaxed outdoor meals when the weather allows. Guests also benefit from the convenience of non-smoking rooms and offsite parking with discounted rates, plus free parking on arrival, which makes road trips through Cantabria much easier.
With check-in from 04:00 PM to midnight and check-out at 12:00 PM, the schedule works well for late arrivals after a drive. One guest review gives it a perfect 10/10, and that kind of score usually reflects consistent comfort and helpful on-the-ground service. The tour desk can help you plan day trips, while the outdoor furniture and terrace give you a place to unwind without needing to leave the property.

For a slower pace, the Cantabrian countryside around Selaya is ideal for short scenic breaks between longer excursions.
