Our take
The Selby suits golf groups and couples prioritizing proximity to Bethpage Black and local conveniences over on-site resort amenities. Its straightforward approach to accommodation and dining makes it a solid choice for those who prefer to spend their time on the course and exploring the immediate area. However, golfers seeking a full-service resort with an integrated golf experience and extensive on-site facilities might find it less appealing.
- Book your Bethpage Black tee times well in advance, especially for weekend play, as they are highly sought after.
- Consider utilizing local taxi services for quick transfers to the course and nearby attractions, particularly during peak season.
- Explore Westbury's dining options beyond the immediate vicinity for a wider range of culinary experiences after your rounds.
