Beautiful eco lodge. Very clean. Lovely outdoor rain shower and bathroom. Wooden floors in the bungalows were so pretty. We enjoyed the trails and were able to photograph squirrel and howler monkeys, badger, toucans, water monitors. Location was between Puerto Jimenez and Drake bay which afforded us to experience both places.

Arriving in the dark, it was difficult to appreciate the beauty of our surroundings, but one thing was clear right away- the people who work at Danta Lodge care about each of their guests. David greeted us, took us to our room, gave us a quick tour, and then served us a wonderful dinner. That was the first meal of several that we enjoyed over the next three days. The food was excellent whether for breakfast, lunch or dinner. The menu is small, but the options are diverse enough to meet anyone's tastes. The Tuna Steak was so good, I had three of the four nights. Bernie was another excellent server. We took three tours- Corcovado Park, Night Tour and Bird Watching tour. Juan Luis was so knowledgeable and we learned a great deal from him. The Orquidea bungalow we stayed in was so cool- open air washroom, clean and comfortable beds, and excellent wifi. Be prepared for lots of sounds in the night as the forest comes alive. This stay was definitely a highlight of our time in Costa Rica.…

Room Tip: Loved the Orquidea bungalow. It is about 200M from the main lodge and 100M from any other guests.

This was my second stay at Danta Corcovado. The first was in 2010 and this time was December 2022. Merlin, the owner, has gone above and beyond by creating a lodge and rooms that are works of art in a beautiful, cared for, fascinating and beautiful rainforest. Being there and seeing all of his hand-carved furniture, animal statutes, and small, thoughtful touches is like being in a dream. There is so much care and attention given to make guests feel comfortable. The meals are excellent, as is the service and the drinks. There are enough trails on the property to keep you busy, as well as tours to the renowned Corcovado Park. We had endless enjoyment and enchantment seeing monkeys (howler, squirrel, capuchin) from our front porches, toucans at the bird lookout, sunrises and sunsets, and frogs at night. I hope to return again.…

I booked Danta through hotels.com and kept struggling whether i should stay there before i go because it seemed a bit far from everything and difficult for me to get there. But i was so glad i decided to give it a go and turned out Danta became my favorite place to stay in Costa Rica! I arrived Danta after dark so couldn't see the room and its surrounding clearly. But once i saw the lodge and the rainforest surrounded on the next day, i quickly decided to extend my stay for one more night to make it 3 nights in total as i found myself loving this place so much that i didn't want to leave! The lodge room was huge and super clean. The bathroom was actually open air (with roof) but i only saw 2 or 3 bugs during midnight. Actually it was the cleanest lodge room i ever stayed and without much bug issues comparing to other rainforest lodges i stayed in similar setting in other countries. I loved to sit outside my room reading and listening to constant bird singing. The lodges are far from one another so felt like i have a space that only belongs to me but not lonely because so many wildlife surrounded me. The service in Danta was exceptional. The staff were always there to serve and help. The food served in the restaurant was fabulous. I had 3 dinners, shrimp, beef steak and tuna steak, and one lunch. They were all very tasty. I loved the tuna steak the most! I basically cleaned every plate i had in Danta. I had morning trekking and night tour in the lodge and also joined one day hike in Corcovado national park. I enjoyed all the tours arranged by the hotel very much. The guide Juan was very professional and knowledge. He was like ready to answer questions all the time. This lodge also offered a few trails for trekking. The path was rustic at some point but that was the charm it offered, isolated from human but only rainforest and wildlife were with you. Last i want to say thank you for all the staff in Danta. You made a great effort to make it a beautiful memory for all the guests staying there and i really appreciated it. …

A great place to commune with and observe nature . There’s no need for curtains as there is no one to see in and no light to shut out. The jungle noises send you to sleep and wake you in the morning. It’s hot but the room is cooled with a fan and fresh air. Toucans,Macaws, squirrel and cappucin monkeys are all around, along with various butterflies including the blue morph. The cabins are kept really clean, food is good and there is a beach 20 minutes away as well as tours etc. Staff friendly and go out of their way to help.

I spent 2 night here and I wish it was 7 nights. The property is beautiful. The restaurant is excellent. The staff attentive, friendly and accommodating. Plus there's Maya :) I was in one of the bungalows and it was beautiful. Nicely secluded and very well appointed. The bed was very comfortable. The linens crisp and clean. The deck with hammock a peaceful joy. Unlike many places you can spend lots of quiet time here as villas and guests are well spread out. The property has a significant trail system you can wander with wildlife and beautiful scenery. The meals were all delicious so I felt no need to leave during my stay. I had just finished hiking Corcovado national park when I arrived and it was quite a nice stay. The staff can arrange for many tours locally such as coffee and chocolate farms, kaya trips on nearby Golfo Dulce, local hikes, and on site night walks where you can see frogs, spiders, insects, lizards and more. On site tour guide Juan Luis was excellent in his knowledge and enthusiasm. Staff member David was friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating. Overall a truly wonderful place I'd love to visit again. The loose gravel road leading to it is brief and not very rough at all. I Highly recommend this for anyone seeking a wonderful getaway.…

We loved this place. It was easy to drive to Danta Corcovado using the directions provided by Waze or google maps.The lodge area, the cabins, the trails and the canopy tower in the dense forest made it special. We were It is within a kilometer of the village of Guadalupe which is within a couple kilometers of the slightly larger town of La Palma. (FYI, La Palma has a very large grocery store.) The road was a very flat, very good gravel road. We stayed for three nights and ate our breakfast and evening meal at the Lodge. Breakfast and dinner times are flexible. There were about six choices for either breakfast or dinner. Meal times were flexible. Staff was always available to answer questions. The pictures are an accurate depiction of the delightful cabins. Several cabins are located in the same general area of the forest but are separated by vegetation so you don't see your neighbors. …

My husband and I stayed at Santa Corcovado Lodge in May 2021, while visiting the Osa peninsula. It was a lot of fun to have our own little cabin, which we called "hobbit House", with its covered porch, bathroom open to the outdoors (half walls), and many squirrel monkeys coming to sleep above our heads. The restaurant was open air, with beautiful handmade furniture, and plentiful, good food. We hiked, kayaked in the mangroves, and had a tractor ride to Corcovado park, which the rain didn't spoil... Highly recommend!
