Traveling with kids isn’t always easy. Parents want to relax, while children want to play, explore, and have endless fun. At Hostería Guaracú in San Jerónimo, Antioquia, we’ve found the perfect balance: a countryside hotel designed so kids can enjoy unforgettable experiences while parents also get the rest they deserve.
Here’s a list of the best activities and experiences to enjoy with your children at our hotel, organized from the most exciting to the most relaxing.
1. The Pool Area: Family-Friendly Swimming Fun
San Jerónimo is known as the town of pools, and at Guaracú we live up to that reputation. Our pool area is the heart of the hotel and always the kids’ favorite plan.
Kids’ Pool: shallow and safe for little ones.
Family pool with beach-style entrance: ideal for floating toys, splashing around, and family sunbathing.
Semi-Olympic pool: great for older kids who know how to swim, always under adult supervision.
Parents can keep an eye on their kids while relaxing with a book or enjoying a cocktail. And for peace of mind, we have lifeguards until 7 p.m. to ensure everyone’s safety.
👉 Pro tip: stay for at least two nights. That way, the kids can enjoy the pools without rushing, and you can fully relax without thinking about traffic on the way home.
2. Family Time in the Jacuzzi
Many think the jacuzzi is just for adults, but at Guaracú kids love it too—they call it “the warm, cozy water.” Families can relax together, enjoying the massage jets while chatting or telling stories.
For extra privacy, book one of our Suites with a private jacuzzi and catamaran net. Kids can safely play and rest while parents enjoy all the comfort of the room.
3. Playground and Slides: Energy Burners
Our playground is a world of fun where kids can:
Jump on the trampoline.
Race down the slides with mom or dad.
Dive into the ball pit.
All while parents relax in the nearby green areas with a clear view of the kids.
4. Interactive Farm and Ecological Gardens
Nothing connects kids to nature like animals. At our farm and lake, children can:
Feed ducks and chickens.
Meet goats, Vietnamese pigs, and rabbits.
Ride our famous horse, Machetero.
Fish for tilapia and have it cooked for their next meal.
Right next to the farm, our ecological gardens are perfect for discovering fruits, flowers, and plants, while learning about sustainability and how food grows.
👉 Pro tip: wear sneakers and sunscreen. Walking as a family makes the experience even better.
5. Family Rides: Tuk Tuk, Horseback, and Bicycles
At Guaracú, every corner is more fun on the move:
Motochiva (tuk tuk): a colorful family ride around the hotel.
Horseback with Machetero: a short ride for adventurous kids, always with adult supervision.
Bicycles: available at the hotel for free use—ride as a family or let the kids pedal safely with the proper protection and permission.
6. Child-Friendly Menu Options
We know kids don’t always want the same meals as adults. That’s why, besides our buffet with plenty of options, we also offer a kids’ menu with favorites like hamburgers, hot dogs, and soups.
And if you’re traveling with a baby, we can prepare fresh, natural purées that are perfect for starting complementary feeding.
7. Calm Evening Activities
As the day winds down, you can enjoy quiet family moments:
Watch the sunset from a hammock.
Take a stroll through the gardens.
Share a relaxing dinner at our restaurant.
Why Stay More Than One Night at Guaracú?
Many parents tell us: “We wish we had stayed longer.” And they’re right. One night isn’t enough to enjoy all these experiences without feeling rushed.
For families, we recommend two to three nights so kids can experience something different each day:
Day 1: Arrival and pool time.
Day 2: Farm, gardens, and playground fun.
Day 3: Tuk tuk ride and family jacuzzi relaxation.
Staying longer means less stress, more rest, and better memories.
At Hostería Guaracú, we understand what parents are looking for: a hotel where kids are happy and safe, and where adults can truly relax.
That’s why we offer:
Pools and water areas for all ages.
Playground, farm, and ecological gardens.
Family suites with private jacuzzis.
A menu designed with kids in mind.
Activities to enjoy more than just one night.
