Beautiful wildlife eco tourism facility. Many trails and opportunities right there to view the OSA Peninsula biodiversity. Meals were fabulous. We stayed in their one concrete “hobbit house” like facility which was Charming but lacked good sir circulation to cool down for sleeping despite 2 fans.

The staff especially Maria was fantastic and so is the dog Maya. Maya will even go for a hike with you if you pet her and show a little attention. The trails on the property are expansive and beautiful. My son Maya and me went on a three mile hike and was still on property grounds. The bird viewing tower is an excellent place to see dawn and dusk when the tropical birds are most active.

A beautiful property, wonderful and unique cottages. No mobile signal but every cottage has good wi-fi. Maya - their resident dog, a beautiful, quiet girl. Nice cocktails. Food options are limited as they have a small menu, but food was nice. 10 mins from the beach. I'd highly recommend the place.

Great villa, magical jungle trails, great food and staff! This was my favorite place that I stayed on my trip.

Awesome find

We loved, loved, loved this place. The room was fantastic and having an open air bathroom was such an unusual treat. We got to see monkeys from our porch as well as many other creatures on the night tour. The food was also fantastic. If we lived closer we would certainly visit again.

This Place is Amazing!!!!! Wonderful rooms, Staff, Food and nature. Can not recommend it enough. We will definitely return and stay again.

Staff and food was great

A truly Costa Rican experience of living in nature. Individual bungalows that open to nature along walks thru the rainforest. Dark skies at night to stargaze. Monkeys in their habitat in the trees, butterflies and a tower in the canopy to birdwatch. Good food options and an attentive bilingual staff. If you want an air conditioned resort this is NOT the place for you, but if you want to experience the sounds and sights of the rainforest at an affordable cost in a designed environment with curated art…GO!

The owners and staff were wonderful. Maya even escorted us up to the Canopy Lookout. Be sure to get to know Maya as soon as you check in.

While being close to a village and road, the property gives feel of total wilderness. Property is vast with great trails, views and fauna right on site. We wereable to see howler monkeys, lizzards, frogs, snakes, vultures, otters and family of Caimans whie walking the trails. Each cottage is unique. Took us one day to get comfortabe with concept of no walls/locks but after that truly liked everything about it. It takes you as close to nature as possible while providing all modern fascilities. Cafeteria has limited but very good options for all.

Beautiful lodge and area

We had an amazing stay at Danta Corcovado! The staff and service are friendly and helpful. The restaurant and cooks are fantastic, and the lodging is clean and comfortable. They have many trails to hike and explore, and every day we saw new types of animals. The tours offered by the hotel are well worth it and I highly recommend doing as many as possible. I plan on telling all my friends to visit this stunning lodge if possible and hope to visit again someday!

Definitely a great eco friendly resort

This is a great little resort. People are very friendly. They have nice trails to hike and explore on. We would see a large of squirl monkeys every late afternoon next to our cabin.

Not for anyone with mobility issues! No outside lighting. Paths are dirt, gravel and rocks.Limited dining hours. Difficult terrain. No air conditioning and roof leaked. Uncooperative management.

Nous avons passé un merveilleux moment à votre hôtel. La nature est extraordinaire et le guide, Jean- Louis est le top des guides! C’est un endroit que vous devez aller absolument! Je n’ai que des points positifs!

Beautiful location, really interesting rooms and great restaurant!

This is such a unique lodge in a gorgeous setting. Very private and creative rooms. Staff was so attentive and polite. Breakfast was delicious and in one of the best settings of any breakfast I have ever had. Plenty to do or a great setting to just relax. Highly recommend.

It was a very serene experience. The lodge had a very communal feel. The room surpassed expectations. Super eco conscious. Amazing staff , delicious food. Great trails. Just outside our room we saw squirrel monkeys up close and via one of their canopy points several toucans from afar on a less traveled point. Truly embraced the countries slogan pura vida.

The creative genius of this property has inspired us on natural projects of our own. Everyone was above and beyond friendly. The accommodations were unique and quite within nature. We completely enjoyed our time here and wish to return.

A lot to offer

Danta is many things : very eco conscious, sophisticated and relaxed. It's goal is, I think, to introduce visitors to one of the world's great tropicsl rainforests. The acco..odation is made from local wood. And of course it is a delight to see toucans before breakfast and monkeys before bedtime.

Loved the private bungalows in the rainforest. Beautiful wood carvings, screened windows all around so we could see and hear the monkeys and birds in the trees just outside our bedroom! Great food. Friendly. Helpful staff. Had fun with their pup Maia greeting us as well. Can’t wait to return!

Great experience for 2-3 nights

Overall, we very much enjoyed our stay. We are a family of 4 with 2 boys ages 12 and 10. The lodge and screen walled cabins provide a nice setting with wonderful creatures and sounds all around. The tours were very good. We did a kayak tour from the gulf beach into a mangrove canal and saw sea turtles, birds, monkeys, and a sloth. The tractor tour into Corcodavo was nice where the highlight for us was toucans. The guide Luiz is very knowledgeable about birds and plants. The drinks and meals were really great. The shower is big and great. Cameras on the front porch and back of cabin add a layer of security. The strong Wifi, lockbox, hammock, and refrigerator were all appreciated. Some caveats: 1) Orientation: The park is “raw.” There isn’t a huge infrastructure of information centers and easy-to-find guides. You must have a local accredited ICT guide. 2) Tours: I was hoping to see mammals including tapirs and anteaters. It’s “the crown jewel” of CR’s national park system so I had my hopes up a little higher. 3) Lock-in: due to distance you are essentially “locked in” to the lodge for tours and meals. 4) Mostly only rain forest sounds: one cabin had small children crying one night. 5) Beds: two double-beds not great for the back and smaller than a queen. 6) Eco-lodge? This place runs on regular government supplied water and electricity. 7) Value: all in for lodging, drinks, meals, great service, parking, and 2 tours, we paid about $475/night for a family of four.

The wildlife within the lodge property was fantastic! Squirrel monkeys visited twice daily, macaws, toucans, manakins, tinamou…the tour to Corcovado NP was unbelievable and our guide was so knowledgeable. We will be returning again

This property was Amazing! Our stay exceeded our expectations. First is the location; located in the jungle, a very unassuming area until you drive up to the enterance. There you see the check in area and to the right is where meals are served. We arrived approx. 11pm, Merlin, the owner met us at our car, grabbed our bags and led us up through the jungle path to our bungalow. He told us to check in the next morning. The Room: 2 queen beds with crisp sheets artfully made. Open the back patio to a small portion of a river which surrounded our bungalow on 3 sides. Constant sounds and sights that entertained us for hours. The resident Cayman (alligator), turtles, snake, lizards that run on top of the water, countless birds must toname afew of our neighbors. 2 custom carved chairs to sit on or a lazy hammock available to use while taking in the sites. Our Bungalow had an amazing path with moss on the sides with bushes and trees flanking the sides. The path led to the meal area or to paths around the property. Breakfast was included. No muffins and juice, the choices include fresh fruit plate, fresh made fruit juice which was different every day. Then I had the omlet made to order with traditional beans and rice. A real treat was fried yucca. Now I'm hooked. There were other breakfast options but i stayed with the omlet because it was so good. Activities: we took a very long hike around the property which included new jungle and old growth jungle.

A really unique place aesthetically. The woodwork and the nature are amazing. You feel like you're in the jungle, but protected by a competent staff and artistic architecture. An unforgettable experience.

This is the best eco lodge I have ever stayed at, with the most friendliest staff, the best food, and the most beautiful natural setting I have experienced (right next to Corcovado National Lark). There is nothing bad to say- this was a perfect place to watch wildlife-especially birds! A

Monkeys over our rooftop and many birds and wildlife Great tour by staff as we were on the outskirts of Coronavada national reserve Great food and a very special area as we could visit nearby town and many world class beaches with very few people around

Nice setting with clean rooms and amenities. Impeccable service. Would recommend.

Good service and good food

Nice lodge with good service by the restaurant staff Carlos and Angel. Very good food and I like the idea they only provide 2 options for dinner. The bungalows appear to be on the new side. The lodge is difficult to find as there are no signs along the highway as there are for other eco lodges. You will hear many jungle sounds and there are plenty of birds and animals to see from you bungalow.

Great place

Great lodge. Food was amazing.

Great location, good food and very helpful staff. Jungle paradise!

Danta Corcovada

Danta Corcovada is located in a beautiful area and the staff are fantastic. We went on a couple of hikes on the property and saw monkeys and toucans. We took advantage of many of the tours they offered and were pleased with all of them. I highly recommend staying here.

This hotel was such a surprise. Their website is okay so it doesn’t portray how amazing of an experience you will have there! From the uniqueness of the rooms to the high quality service, we can’t wait to go back.

mountain hotel, in the middle of the jungle...

Had a great time with my daughter and cousins. Excellent service, the owner upgraded us into a bigger room at no extra charge. Delicious food served by the most friendly staff, Celia without the azuuuca!! Thank you sooo much.

Best Eco-Lodge Experience

We were very excited to stay at Danta Lodge because we had read that they had trails you could hike yourself and see wildlife. When we arrived,we were blown away by how much terrain we could explore,and that they had a tower we could go up to look over the forest. The first day we saw 2 sloths, squirrel monkeys and iguanas! Over the next few days we spent hours each day scoping out wildlife and taking in the fauna. Our accommodation was a lodge that looked like a hobbit house,it was incredible! The bathroom had such great detail,and was half outdoors ( attached to room,but had a secure bug proof door) The sounds of nature were so serene, as was the creek flowing through the guest area. We weren't sure if we would stay at the lodge for all of our meals,but after our complimentary breakfast the first morning,we were hooked. They offered a couple different options for each meal that you choose ahead of time. Some of the best food we have ever eaten,and left each meal stuffed! The cocktails they offer are also of the highest quality. We found the staff to be so impressive with their attention to detail and kindness. We greatly enjoyed our 3 nights at Danta and are missing it already! Can't recommend enough!

Amazing experience

Staying at Danta has been the highlight of our trip around Costa Rica. Sleeping in a bungalow with no walls and watching the animals and nature around you is just an incredible experience. The staff were amazing - from those working in the restaurant to the guide taking us around Corcovado and their local night walk.

We had a fantastic stay. The lodge sits on the edge of rainforest and has its own set of great hiking trails and a nice canopy tower surrounded by a butterfly garden- a great spot for birdwatching. There is farmland next door so you are not in deep jungle but you would never know once you are on the property. We did not have any issues with biting insects. The staff was very inviting and helpful with recommendations for activities, they seem to truly care about the region and want you to experience the best parts of it. We were there with 2 small children (4&6) and they were in heaven. Macaws and Toucans are regular visitors we could see from our outdoor bathroom. A sloth and a squirrel monkey troup were in the same tree over the lodge at one point. Breakfast is great each day- we only ate one dinner there but had a wonderful meal. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Fantastic experience of the forest.

The lodge is beautifully designed, open plan, wooden construction, cottages set in the forest open to the sights and sounds. The food is lovely. There are a range of public spaces and well made trails into primary forest giving several kilometres of walking. We saw frogs, leaf cutter ants, turtles, monkeys, butterflies, toucans, hummingbirds and much more. The staff are knowledgable. The lodge is owned and run by a family committed to protecting and restoring the forest and run the Lodge in a low impact way. Also, we are vegetarian and a special effort was made to prepare tasty food for us.

Amazing jungle lodge; great staff; great kitchen; lots of activities possible on-site and nearby. Great way to see the Osa peninsula.

Amazing lodge

The lodge was beautiful and the workmanship of the construction and use of materials was remarkable and the staff were really helpful. We loved our room, it was huge, clean and well maintained and its the only time we've taken photos of a bathroom - it was so unique! . We sat on the balcony and watched the monkeys in the trees and listened to the birds. The trails on the property were good and there is a great viewing platform at the top of the hill. The food at the restaurant was the best of our holiday. The evening meal was 3 courses, we read reviews from others that it was expensive but for 3 courses we thought it was good value and it was the best tasting food we'd had on our entire trip. Choice is limited but quality is excellent as was the breakfast. One of our favourite places of our tour of Costa Rica. The area is amazing too - best wildlife you will find. We saw a large black cat cross the road on our way out (wild not domestic!).

One of our favorite overnights ever

Danta Corcovado Lodge is a magical experience. Eco-lodge rustic, but with incredibly thoughtful touches. A unique way to spend time in a rainforest setting and hike at your own pace, with very well maintained (somewhat strenuous) trails on the property. Great food at the restaurant. They take such good care of you from start to finish. The highlight of our two trips to Costa Rica. We will definitely be coming back.

First and foremost, the staff we dealt with at Danta (Jairo) was fantastic. A very warm welcome upon arrival with an unhurried pace. We had to leave for a tour the next morning at a very early hour, so Jairo arranged that breakfast would be set out and waiting for us by the night watchman. Nice touch! Breakfast was excellent both mornings. It was nice to have their own trail network close by, as we appreciated the chance to do a little walk after arriving at the lodge. We stayed in the "domed" room which, while being very creatively designed, was a bit on the warm side, especially during the day. The three large floor fans (and a relatively cooler night temperature) made sleeping bearable. Next time, we would like to try one of the other cabins further back in the forest, which looked to be more open and have more natural airflow.

Memorable experience

A model example of sustainable and ecological housing. I could not have imagined a better way to experience corocavado( other than camping at La sirena). We had the bungalow right opposite a tree with a family of moneys and saw macaws flying by a couple of times. One hidden surprise highlight was the viewing deck which overlooks the small stream on property.

One of a kind!! Don't miss this place.

AMAZING! This entire place is a work of art and attention is paid to every detail. Each guest cabin is an incredible work of art made with natural and local materials, like beautiful wood from the jungle. Even the light fixtures are artistically designed. The bathroom and shower blend in so well with nature you will think you are outside bathing under a waterfall. The food is 5 star - top notch and you wouldn't expect that in such a remote location. The owner even takes the time to play cool music while you are dining. Clean, artistic, earthy, beautiful and most of all completely unique. Worth the drive. We wished we had more time to spend there.

Great experience. Unique hotel for the outdoor person. Great food a plus!

Die Lage mitten im Urwald sehr schön und aufregend. Die Bettlaken nicht komfortabel. Der Service sehr zuvorkommend und das Essen ausgezeichnet!!!

Besser geht Nicht

einfach der Hammer😀vom Service bis Küche und Sauberkeit. Auch die Bungalows wunderschön eingerichtet mit allem was man braucht. Der Park mit mehreren Trails ist super angelegt, sogar mit einem Beobachtungsturm.

Séjour très agréable en pleine nature. Logement original, bon restaurant.

Excelente

Un paseo único contacto con la naturaleza muy increíble

Es war ein einmaliges, unvergessliches Erlebnis. Mitten im Dschungel haben wir uns sehr sicher gefühlt. Es gibt auch kostenlos benutzbare Wandertrails im eigenen Hotelareal. Das angebotene Essen war sehr lecker und der Service super. Sehr, sehr nettes Personal. Wenige km im Ort sogar schöner, etwas steiniger, Strand mit vielen Palmen und Einkaufsmöglichkeiten.

Great jungle experience

Fantastic hotel on the edge of Corcovado. Lots of wildlife to observe on the lodge’s private paths. Warm welcome from the friendly staff and help and smiles throughout the visit. Peaceful restaurant with traditional tican breakfast inkluded and possible to have lunch and dinner there as well.
