Dantica has two galleries with contemporary and indigenous art from various Latin American countries. One is located at Plaza Herradura – Jacó, the other at the Lodge in San Gerardo de Dota. Everything is elaborated in natural materials and traditional techniques.

From necklaces to furniture, ceramics to hammocks, wooden benches to bags we offer you a large variety of products at a high level both in design and quality. Many products we show are still in use in a number of indigenous and rural communities in Latin America. From pre-colombian techniques to contemporary craftsmanship this art can be used in many ways and for many purposes.

Our products come from Argentina, Bolivia, Brasil, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Panamá, Perú and Venezuela. In this way we show you the diversity of cultures on this continent united in one single space.

Dantica Gallery - San Gerardo de Dota

This galllery is at the Lodge and offers a beautiful view over the cloud forest  covered mountains. It is open 7 days a week, for public from 7.00 AM to 5.00 PM and for clients staying at the Lodge from 7.00 AM to 8.00 PM. The gallery consists of three large exposition rooms dedicated to
 indigenous art, jewelry, gifts, decoration and interior design.

In the gallery we have a restaurant with terrace where you can have breakfast and lunch or just a good coffee or fresh fruit juice while looking out for hummingbirds and quetzals. We have fireplaces with some comfortable couches for the chilly nights.

The restaurant is also open 7 days a week, from 7.00 A.M. to 5.00 P.M. During opening hours breakfast or lunch à la carte can be ordered at any time. Have a look at our breakfast menu.

The terrace has tables and chairs for breakfast/lunch and some comfortable beach chairs pointed towards the bird- and hummingbird-feeders; a good place to relax in the early morning sun. From here you can see the American swallow-tailed kite and red tailed hawk flying by closely.                                                                

For dinner there is the restaurant only of Doña Miriam only 500 meters away with very good local food at a very reasonable price. Especially the fresh trout and blackberry juice are worth trying. If you prefer to go there walking under thousands of stars, every lodge has a flashlight. This restaurant also provides room service.
