Dantica Cloud Forest Lodge is truly a special place. The cabins sit along the edge of the cloud forest, with sweeping views that bring nature right to your rooms, making everything feel alive and immersive. The hiking trails are rigorous yet rewarding, beautiful, quiet, and perfect for spotting rare birds and wildlife you don’t often see elsewhere. By day, the scenery is lush and vibrant; at night, the peaceful darkness settles in and feels wonderfully remote. If there’s one opportunity to improve, it would be the dinner service in the restaurant - on certain evenings, the wait can be quite long, though the food itself is excellent once it arrives. Overall, a memorable blend of comfort, serenity, and unforgettable nature.

2nd time in this place. It was way better! We were lucky to book on a lonely weekend so we were upgraded for free! We enjoyed a superb bungalow with so many cool gadgets and surroundings. This time we had the chance to walk through the trails and had a great time getting to know the property. Totally recommended!

We loved the staff and the grounds were beautiful. The restaurant serves a lovely breakfast too. But the rooms weren’t clean and they needed some repairs. Lots of insects and cobwebs in corners. Our room was big and comfortable with breathtaking views but it was right up against the main road so we heard traffic noise all day and night. A little TLC and some repairs to the room would go a long way.

If cant walk far dont book forest room.

I booked a forest room. Was not aware it was at least 500 yds up a steep incline. I could not make it. Very friendly receptionist glory moved us to another room near the restaurant which was small but ok. However we had to move a little while later as lady who had originally booked it would not accept the alternative. This was very lucky for us as it was 2 bedroom unit, very very nice.

The hotel is absolutely unique. We were in cabin 14and was literally living in the jungle with floor to ceiling windows. So peaceful to watch nature with our own viewing deck. Excellent restaurant and staff were great. We went in late march and it was very cool being at higher altitude so maybe take a jacket. Well worth the trip!!!!!

I loved the serenity of the cloud forest and views. I really wanted a way to open a screened window for a cool, natural breeze and to listen to bird song, while still being able to lock the doors. It was quieter than expected given the proximity of the road (very few cars travel it), but also a little less private that I desired with the other guests walking by. The staff were extremely helpful and engaging - a really nice part of the experience.

This hotel was wonderful; the tour guides were particularly knowledgeable and also great with kids! We enjoyed the restaurant and especially the views from the rooms (we had 3, and all were incredible). It is a bit of a walk through the cloud forest to the rooms, but there is help for luggage, and it's exactly the kind of walk you come to Costa Rica to take! Thank you Dantica!
