"Would highly recommend this place. The owners just couldn't be nicer or more helpful. The cabins are bright, comfortable, and clean. The location is convenient to the Mirador de Ujarras and the Ruinas de Ujarras as well as multiple good restaurants. The citrus trees on the grounds attract lots of interesting birds. We saw at least 35 species from our porch. Hanging out with their adorable, super friendly Doberman was a big bonus for us."

Hotel y Restaurante El Guarco

10/10 Excellent

"Best location in Cartago for a hotel. Beds are not Marriott but they are clean and rooms are big enough for 3-4 people. The restaurant is good and not very expensive. The breakfast is nice and when they have the outdoor breakfast bar is probably my favorite experience of this hotel. If you’re going to be in Cartago, this is the best place to say. Very reasonably priced. Most of the staff is bilingual in Spanish and English."

Rancho Rio Perlas Resort & Spa

8/10 Good

"★★★★☆ A beautiful and relaxing stay with a few disappointments We really enjoyed our stay at Rancho Río Perlas. The property is beautiful, peaceful, and full of charm. The gardens were lovely and well maintained, especially considering the rainy season. The pools were a highlight — particularly the hot pool, which was clean, relaxing, and enjoyable. Our room was excellent: spacious, comfortable, and a lovely place to stay. There were a few areas where our expectations did not match the experience. From the website, we expected a restaurant, pool bars, and more extensive spa facilities. Although these areas exist and look attractive, the restaurant and bars were not operating during our stay, meaning we had to leave the property for lunch, dinner, drinks, and snacks. The spa appeared to be limited mainly to massages booked in advance. The WiFi worked well around the grounds but was unreliable inside our room. Breakfast was somewhat disappointing for a place presented as a spa and wellness destination. The Gallo Pinto was very good, but options such as store-bought muffins and bottled juice did not reflect the healthy image promoted online. The breakfast service could also have felt warmer and more welcoming. Overall, Rancho Río Perlas is a beautiful property with great potential. We enjoyed our visit and would recommend it, but clearer communication about available services and some improvements to the food and hospitality would make it an exceptional experience."

Villa Bosque

8/10 Good

"Nos hospedamos 2 noches. No nos fijamos q la habitación q reservamos no incluía aire acondicionado y la verdad nos hizo mucha falta, pensamos que por el precio era obvio que lo tendría. En la segunda noche nos trajeron un segundo abanico. La ducha estaba fallando porque el agua salía hirviendo o congelada y para que llegara a caliente demoraba muchísimo. Cuando intentabamos ponerla tibia teníamos q mover la llave de un lado para el otro para regularla. Si quieren una ducha relajante aquí no es. El personal es muy amable y educado y tienen mucha disposición de ayudar. El desayuno es incluído, pero el gallo pinto no tenía buen sabor le faltaba salsa Lizano y el huevo revuelto no estaba bien cocinado y no tenía sal, no quisimos decir nada en el momento porque al día siguiente íbamos a pedir que lo cocinaran mejor pero no nos dio tiempo de desayunar ese día. Probamos los platillos del restaurante, Salmón con vegetales (al salmón le faltaba condimentos) los vegetales si estaban buenos Tacos de res q sí estaban deliciosos Corte de entraña de res estaba bueno pero un poco frío Fettuccine lomito de res muy bueno Hamburguesa smokehouse la carne ocupaba más sazón también Las sangrías ambas tinta y blanca la sentí un poco más dulces de lo q esperaba Con nuestro niño fueron muy amables y agradecemos mucho eso! La cancha de básquetbol, la sala de juegos Nintendo y las zonas verdes son un súper bonus, con eso estamos muy felices. En general, creo q si volveremos a pesar de tdo"
