Official star rating:
Lodge locations don’t get much better than this – rooms are perched on the upper branches of giant trees and connected by rope bridges. All have 360-degree viewing balconies and the largest is big enough for a family – with three separate bedrooms. You’ll wake up to sunrise over the Amazon rainforest, and capuchin monkeys and macaws eating fruit from the trees right outside your window.
The lodge itself sits next to a small Amazon tributary, the Yarapa, on the edge of the 2-million-hectare Pacaya Samiria national reserve – the biggest protected area in Peru.
Surrounding area
The lodge sits on a quiet tributary of a tributary of the Amazon river, a two-and-a-half-hour boat ride from Iquitos. The environs are wild and pristine, with primary rainforest, oxbow lakes, small rivers and creeks and no settlements nearby.
The huge Pacaya Samiria National Reserve is literally a few minutes boat ride away.
