Dantica Cloud Forest Lodge is an eco-boutique hotel. It's located on top of a hill in the Los Santos Forest Reserve — rooms here offer a breathtaking view of the cloud forest. This lodge has an eco-friendly design and prides itself in its harmony with the environment.

Los Santos Reserve covers 50 acre (20 ha) of cloud forests, and guests of Dantica should take advantage of the 3 miles (5 km) of walking trails,
Dantica is the closest hotel to the newly created Los Quetzales National Park. Nearby you can visit the Cerro de la Muerte — at a height of 2 miles (3.5 km), it's the second-highest point in Costa Rica. It offers incredible vistas of the Pacific Ocean and the volcanoes in the distance. This is one of Costa Rica's top destinations for bird watching, and a guided tour can introduce you to species endemic to the cloud forests.

When you're ready to try some local cuisine, you walk to the many restaurants that serve Costa Rican as well as international options. At the restaurant you can enjoy a breakfast, lunch or dinner a la carte. In our beautiful and large gallery you can buy art and handicrafts from Costa Rica and other Latin American countries.

Dantica consists of 10 Bungalows. All of the rooms have satellite TV and Wi-Fi. Other convenient amenities include safety deposit boxes, minibars, and mini refrigerators. Coffee makers as well as coffee and tea are provided. Each accommodation has a private bathroom that's equipped with biodegradable toiletries and a hair dryer.

I hope Costa Rica can stay the course - it is a wonderful destination with many microclimates and great awareness of the environment.
