LOCATION: The Dimond Center Hotel is owned by the Alaskan Natives of Seldovia. We invite you to visit our hometown when your sense of adventure takes you beyond your stay in Anchorage. Our concierge books exclusive side excursions to this alluring area for our guests.
Our remote village is about an hour away from Anchorage via small plane, across the bay from Homer on the Kenai Peninsula. The Seldovia Native Association, Incorporated has just over 300 members and represents a mixture of the indigenous people of Alaska – Eskimos, Athabascan Indians and Aleuts.
Pristine lands owned by the Seldovia Natives include some of the world’s most spectacular landscapes. Old growth rainforests, rugged mountains, ice blue glaciers, and sparkling blue-green waters sheltered in dramatic fjords make up our home. Wildlife is abundant, fishing is incredible, and birding or marine mammal viewing are spectacular in our quiet corner of Alaska. SHOW MAP

Comfortable leather chairs invite a relaxing conversation or a spirited boardgame. The ageless elegance of antique inlayed wood tables recalls the craftsmanship of yesteryear and stories of great Alaskan adventures long remembered with a reflective smile.
The delicious aroma of the Inside Beach Breakfast Bar fills the lobby each morning. The Inside Beach is the place to watch the sun rise in Seldovia, a beautiful way to start the day. Our breakfast bar is incredible - fresh made vanilla scented Belgian waffles, seasonal fruit, and warm maple syrup fill the curved counter along with toast and jam, yogurt, hot and cold cereals, and fresh baked pastries.
The visual feast is just as inviting. Kachemak Bay’s marine mammals dance in the Prussian blue waters before you, their mirth and grace untraditionally captured in the whimsical style of Alaskan artist Karla Morreira’s original watercolors. The custom crafted white oak furniture is fashioned in a timeless design inspired by pieces found in a 16th century Austrian castle.
A traditional variety of juices, milk, and hot beverages are readily available at the Inside Beach Breakfast Bar - but if something a bit more exciting is your morning pick-me-up, step into the Camel Rock Lounge & Espresso Bar for StarbucksR specialty drinks: espresso, flavored lattes, cappuccinos, mochas, and more. |
