Hotels near Guachipelín

The staff were spectacular, willing to go the extra mile to help. The rooms were spacious. The bathroom had a make up mirror and a big stall for the shower. The best part for me was the balcony with two rocking chairs and a hammock that could have been built for two.

Remote, clean, landscaping & gardening were fantastic.

The location and quiet atmosphere at night.

The location was perfect - close to the national park for hikes and hotsprings and not far from the liberia airport (1 hour-ish) The tent we stayed in was amazing and had a beautiful view! The grounds were kept very well. The pool area was clean and beautiful, slide was fun too! Hot tub was great to hop into in the evenings. We even saw toucans here!!! Jorge the owner runs the place and he is a wonderful person all around. We had great conversations with him and he had great reccomendations on different things to do! They can cook you meals throughout your stay - they were a great price and amazing big meals! If you're reading this - book it now, you'll love it too! We can't wait to go back!

The room was REALLY hot, and the only form of AC was this tiny manual one that just blew lukewarm air so that wasn’t fun. The shower drain also didn’t drain and after a 5 minute shower, all of the water was flooding over, but I mentioned this to Andre and he said he’d fix it. Plus I was only there for one night so it wasn’t a big deal. Here’s where my very poor rating comes from: Upon arrival, I asked if it was ok if I paid for the room on departure and they said it was ok. I wanted to check out this waterfall about 20 min by car from the lodge, and then go straight to the airport after. Since there were no Ubers around the area (it’s pretty isolated) Andre offered to drive me to the waterfall and then come back and pick me up and take me to the airport. I thought this was such a kind gesture since he did not say anything about it costing money. I probably should have known, but we had all good chats and got to know each other so I thought he was just offering. I packed up all my things and headed to the living room to pay when Andre said they ONLY accept cash. I had been paying with card my whole trip and only had like $7 in colones so I told him I would need to go to an ATM. He drove me there, and my card kept getting rejected most likely due to me being in another country. I told him this and asked if he had Venmo or PayPal or Zelle or anything to do a bank transfer. He said no, but my flight was soon so we continued to drive to the airport. He then asked his sister if she had PayPal and she said yes, so I thought ok perfect I’ll just PayPal her. I didn’t have any wifi to get a connection to PayPal and so Andre used his hotspot from his phone but my app continuously said it couldn’t log in. Only then did he tell me that the full amount was going to be 100 dollars. My room was only $42 so I was confused about that price and then he said he was charging me for the ride. I thought that it was so sneaky for him to spring that on me on the way to (continued)

Friendly staff, prices are reasonable, nice pool
