Give it a try, you wont regreat it!
We had a great time discovering this hidden gem. Restaurant service and food quality is exc! The room was very well equipped, the bed is really comfy and the coolest thing about it is you gotta take a trial through the forest to get to your bungalow. You will get to see lots of birds and its pretty calm to have a great sleep. Im definitely coming back. Hopefully for the coldest time of the year.

We loved our superior forest bungalow overlooking the cloud forest. It was super cozy and very quiet. We were visited by many hummingbirds on our little deck. The restaurant was top notch - very pretty and intimate and the food was amazing. It was a great place for bird watching at breakfast and lunch. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

Lovely place with incredible views and very nice staff. The food is good, not great, but good enough! It's expensive so you expect more but overall, it's a nice place for a couple of nights.

Even with all the great reviews, this hotel exceeded our expectations. Amazing views from the rooms and everywhere else. Fantastic restaurant with glass walls looking into the surrounding trees and mountains. Totally recommended - try to arrive by daylight if possible- the final few kms would be challenging in the dark.

Amazing gem in the heart of the forest!
We had an amazing stay at Dantica. We weren't sure what to expect, but the property is amazing. So much wildlife, so many beautiful trails to explore. The room, more like a palace, had an amazing view and was so unique and comfortable. The staff were always smiling, and the food was fabulous. We would definitely come back. The only word of caution to others...this is a good solid 8,000 feet of elevation, so don't plan to do much your first day if you suffer from altitude issues. It took us a day to adjust, but after that, we were off and running.
