Riverside Cabins by Chequelo 4 - Cabins for Rent in El Guarco, Cartago Province, Costa Rica

A beautiful place, it is superbly equipped, everything was very clean and organized, we loved it!

Un hermoso lugar, está súper bien equipada, todo estaba muy limpio y organizado, nos gustó muchísimo!

Excellent place, a bit far away but definitely worth it.

Excelente lugar, un poco lejos pero definitivamente vale la pena.

Excellent experience. The cabin is very cozy, and there is a restaurant just a short walk away with very good food. It’s the perfect spot for a weekend getaway.

Excelente experiencia. La cabaña es muy acogedora y hay un restaurante a pocos pasos con muy buena comida. Es el lugar perfecto para una escapada de fin de semana.

Bonito lugar para despejarse un fin de semana

The place is beautiful, very comfortable and easy to access, you can get in with any car. However, if other people rent the cabin, they are very close, so there is too much noise late at night. Other than that, the restaurant is delicious, they serve until 10:30 pm which is excellent and they offer breakfast, lunch, dinner and even dessert. Super highly recommended!! Maricruz is very helpful

El lugar es precioso, muy cómodo y fácil de acceder, puedes entrar en cualquier carro. Sin embargo, si otras personas alquilan la cabaña, están muy pegadas entonces es demasiado el ruido y a altas horas de la noche. Fuera de esto, el restaurante es delicioso, atienden hasta las 10:30 pm lo cual está excelente y ofrecen desayuno, almuerzo, cena y hasta postre. Súper súper recomendado!! Maricruz es muy atenta

The place is very quiet, with a good restaurant. Very spacious, organized and clean accommodation. Excellent place

El lugar es muy tranquilo, con buen restaurante. El alojamiento muy espacioso, organizado y limpio. Excelente lugar

Excellent cleanliness and condition of the kitchenware.

Excelente limpieza  y condiciones del menaje.

Perfect road for all vehicles and very quiet place

Camino perfecto para todo vehículo y muy tranquilo el lugar

un lugar super acogedor, nada malo que decir

the place is spacious, however, some aspects that I personally did not like were: 1. The bar restaurant is close to the cabin and they had karaoke until 10 pm, the noise was annoying, sleeping with that noise is impossible, after that time I can say that everything was quiet. 2. The armchairs are not very comfortable. 3. In front of the cabin, on the same property, there was junk that visually looks ugly. One positive thing is that there was a problem with the kitchen (it didn't work), however, the manager was very attentive and solved the problem for us.

el lugar es espacioso, sin embargo, algunos aspectos que en lo personal no me gustó fueron: 1. El bar restaurante está cerca de la cabaña y tenían karaoke hasta las 10 pm, el ruido era molesto, dormir con ese ruido es imposible, después de esa hora puedo decir que todo era silencio. 2. los sillones son poco confortables. 3. Frente a la cabaña, en la misma propiedad había chatarra que visualmente se ve feo. Algo positivo es que hubo un problema con la cocina (no funcionó), sin embargo, la encargada fue muy atenta y resolvió nos resolvió el problema.

A very nice place to clear your mind and disconnect

Un lugar muy bonito para despejarse y desconectarse

The place is very quiet. The cabin is in perfect condition. Very clean, tidy and all the people are very attentive. The breakfast is very delicious and a good price. The photos match the place. Super good access for all kinds of cars.

El lugar es muy tranquilo. La cabaña está en perfectas condiciones. Muy limpio, ordenado y todas las personas muy atentas. El desayuno muy rico y buen precio. Las fotos coinciden con el lugar. El acceso super bueno para todo tipo de carro.

The place is super clean and cozy. The restaurant has many options on the menu. The host is very friendly, helpful and responds quickly. Definitely recommend it.

El lugar es súper limpio y acogedor. El restaurante tiene muchas opciones en el menú. La anfitriona es muy amable, atenta y responde rápidamente. Definitivamente lo recomiendo.

Very nice and cozy, impeccable, very attentive host, restaurant with a varied menu and very delicious.

Muy bonito y acogedor, impecable, anfitrion muy atento, restaurante con variedad en menú y muy delicioso.

Excellent facilities, with a very good location.

Excelentes instalaciones, con buena ubicación muy buena experiencia.

The cabin is very nice, super clean and tidy. Very satisfied with the place as seen in the photos, complete for cooking. The service provided by the host was good, the only drawback was that the cabin we were in for an hour and a half, maybe a little more, the jacuzzi didn't fill up, if the whole faucet was opened quickly only cold water came out, we called to ask for help, someone came to check and from what we heard in a telephone conversation between him and someone else he said "again" it's not working, if it's a repeat offense if it's important to check twice that it works properly, we had to change cabins when we already had everything set up, food, things in the refrigerator, however the host gave us a gift the next day for the inconvenience which is very much appreciated. And the noise with the surrounding cabins, you can hear everything, even the water in the sink.

La cabaña muy bonita, súper limpia y ordenada. Muy satisfecha con el lugar tal cual se ve en fotos, completo para poder cocinar. El servicio brindado por medio de la anfitriona estuvo bien, el único inconveniente fue que la cabaña que nos tocó durante hora y media quizás un poco más el jacuzzi no se llenaba, si se abría toda la llave por rapidez solo salía agua fría, llamamos para pedir ayuda alguien llegó a revisar y por lo que escuchamos en una conversación telefónica de él con otra persona indicó “otra vez” no está funcionando, si es reincidente si es importante revisar el doble de que funcione correctamente, tuvimos que pasarnos de cabaña cuando teníamos ya todo instalado, comida, cosas en el refrigerador, sin embargo la anfitriona nos brindó un detalle al día siguiente por el inconveniente el cual se le agradece mucho. Y el ruido con las cabañas aledañas si se escucha todo, hasta el agua del lavamanos.

Very clean and nice, the bathtub/jacuzzi quite nice and good treatment of the host

Muy limpio y bonito, la bañera/jacuzzi bastante bonita y buen trato del anfitrión

The place is very nice, the area is quite nice, the only thing that would change would be the lighting of ma cabaña

El lugar es muy bonito, la zona es bastante agradable, lo único que cambiaría sería la iluminación de ma cabaña

Beautiful place, surrounded by nature. The food from the restaurant's delicious.

A cozy and beautiful cabin. Great to visit as a couple. Having room service is a big plus.

Una cabaña acogedora y preciosa. Genial para visitar en pareja. El tener servicio a la habitación es un gran plus.

The accommodation is pretty good, nice, spacious bathroom and overall very clean. It would be appreciated if the kitchen was equipped more, some utensils are missing such as rayadores, peeler, corkscrew.

El alojamiento está bastante bien, es bonito, baño amplio y en general muy limpio. Se agradecería si equipasen más la cocina, faltan algunos utensilios como rayadores, peladores, sacacorchos.

The cabin is beautiful, super comfortable, very clean and well equipped, the super good jacuzzi, it is in a very quiet and private place surrounded by nature, the only thing is that I would recommend  that there was more light in the door of it, as we arrived at night and we had to light with our cell phones to see the entrance box. Otherwise, everything was super excellent. I recommend it.

La cabaña es preciosa, super cómoda, muy limpia y bien equipada, el jacuzzi super bueno, está en un lugar muy tranquilo y privado rodeado de naturaleza, lo único es que recomendaría  que existiera más luz en la puerta de la misma, pues llegamos de noche y tuvimos que alumbrar con nuestros celulares para ver la cajita de entrada. Por lo demás todo super excelente la recomiendo.

a very cozy and very pretty place. Easy to access. The cool jacuzzi

un lugar muy acogedor y muy bonito. De fácil acceso. El jacuzzi genial

The attention of Maricruz was excellent, and the cabin was very nice!

Muy bonita cabaña y ubicación rodeado de naturaleza. Desayuno 10/10 *no viene incluido* pero súper bueno. Buena atención y servicio por parte de Maricruz. Tomar en cuenta que ahí solamente llega señal de Claro (hay wifi y funciona muy bien).

It's a nice place, the cabin is very comfortable. The smell of pine wood charms me as well the food in their restaurant

Es un lindo lugar, la cabaña muy cómoda. El olor a madera de pino me encanto asi mismo la comida en su restaurante

Couldn't have chosen better stay A place surrounded by nature, spectacular hospitality. I'll definitely be back 🌿🌱🐶🐩 My gratitude to Maricruz and her family.

No pude haber elegido mejor hospedaje. Un lugar rodeado por la naturaleza, la hospitalidad espectacular. Sin duda, vuelvo 🌿🌱🐶🐩 Mi gratitud para Maricruz y su familia.

The cabin is beautiful and very large. It has great rustic finishes. The only downside is that you hear the noise from the other cabins. The service was very good . I hope to return soon.

La cabaña es preciosa y muy grande cuenta con acabados rústicos geniales . El único inconveniente es que  se escucha el ruido de las otras cabañas. La atención fue muy buena . Espero regresar pronto.

It was a great time, I loved the amount of water in the bathroom and for the tub and the temperature I wanted

Fue un tiempo genial, me encanto la cantidad de agua en el baño y para la tina y a la temperatura que yo quería

The cabin as such is beautiful, the room is spacious and comfortable, the bathroom is spacious, nice and clean, the kitchen with everything you need and well cleaned. However, there was one look that made the stay a bit uncomfortable, the bulla. You hear absolutely everything about the cabins next door, plus you also hear very loud music and bulla in general from surrounding bars. If the bulla is not a problem, I recommend the cabins 100%.

La cabaña como tal es preciosa, la habitación amplia y cómoda, el baño amplio, bonito y limpio, la cocina con todo lo necesario y bien aseada. Sin embargo, hubo un aspecto que hizo la estancia un poco incómoda, la bulla. Se escucha absolutamente todo lo de las cabañas de al lado, además de que también se escucha muy fuerte la música y bulla en general de bares aledaños. Si la bulla no es problema, las cabañas las recomiendo al 100%.

It's a very spacious cabin! Very nice and with restaurant.

Es una cabaña muy espaciosa! Muy bonita y con restaurante.

A great experience looks even better in person than in photos, cozy good internet, the restaurant good prices and delicious, wanting to go again

Una gran experiencia se ve mejor aún en persona que en fotos, acogedor bien internet, el restaurante buenos precios y delicioso, deseando volver a ir

The beautiful place. We were delighted! As shown in the photos, the cabin was impeccable, the host was attentive and quick in her responses, she gave us a solution as soon as we needed it. We would go again.

El lugar precioso. Quedamos encantados! Tal y como aparece en las fotos, la cabaña estaba impecable, la anfitriona atenta y rápida en sus respuestas, nos brindó solución en cuanto lo necesitábamos. Volveríamos a ir.

Fabulous cabin for a night with the family.  I will be visiting again. The pork grinds from their restaurant were great, the restaurant has a lot of food options for a very economical price.

I loved it. The place is super quiet, clean and nice. The attention of the locals and the rich food in the restaurant made our stay very pleasant. Maricruz and the other people were very friendly.

Me encantó. El lugar super tranquilo, limpio y bonito. La atención de las personas del lugar y la rica comida del restaurante hicieron que nuestra estadía fuera muy agradable. Maricruz y las demás personas fueron muy amables.

Nice place, the jacuzzi is an adequate size and good bubble power. the toilet was very good and the contact with nature feels. I would just like to point out that there are several cabins and they are attached to each other so you can hear the people staying next door.

Lugar agradable, el jacuzzi tiene un tamaño adecuado y buena potencia de burbujas. el aseo fue muy bueno y el contacto con la naturaleza de siente. Solo quisiera destacar que hay varias cabañas y están pegadas una con otra por lo que se escuchan las personas que se están hospedando al lado.

The place is just as described in the photos, perfect for a getaway as a couple or family. Very close to the GAM but with a quiet atmosphere, with the ranch nearby to eat and have a good time. Everything was clean, Maricruz's response was always ready and cordial. It has a green area that our pet took advantage of. We took the guided hike to the local waterfall, beautiful river of fresh and crystal clear water. I loved the good use of natural light. The full experience is to be repeated.

El lugar es tal y como se describe en las fotos, perfecto para una escapada en pareja o familia. Muy cerca de la GAM pero con un ambiente tranquilo, con el rancho cerca para comer y pasar un buen rato. Todo estaba limpio, la respuesta de Maricruz siempre pronta y cordial. Tiene zona verde que nuestra mascota aprovechó. Hicimos la caminata guiada a la catarata local, hermoso río de agua fresca y cristalina. Me encantó el buen aprovechamiento que se hace de la luz natural. La experiencia completa es para repetir.

Too quiet Maria treated us super well. The super clean place is super clean, highly recommended 💯

Demasiado tranquilo María nos atendió súper bien el lugar súper limpio Súper recomendado 💯

Everything was excellent, the service was very good, they have a very rich restaurant, it is really a very good option to escape the everyday, the ease and accessibility of everything, we loved it. We're already making plans to go back

Todo estuvo excelente, la atención fue muy buena, tienen un restaurante riquísimo, de verdad es una muy buena opción para escapar de lo cotidiano, la facilidad y accesibilidad de todo, nos encantó. Ya estamos haciendo planes para volver.
