Calanoa Amazonas is located in the heart of the Colombian jungle bordering both Peru and Brazil, 30 minutes by boat from Leticia.
Each cabin is a two storey A-frame structure. Downstairs has a netted double bed with its own private bathroom and the loft space in each cabin can also sleep up to six people, so a great option for families. A boardwalk connects the cabins with the social areas and doubles as an excellent platform for watching birds and monkeys.
A stay a Calanoa is to explore the Colombian Amazon, visit local communities and take boat trips to national parks and to Tarapoto Lake where it may even be possible to see the extraordinary pink river dolphins.
Calanoa Amazonas is situated in the Calanoa Natural Reserve is at the very heart of the Colombian Amazon.
Some of the wonderful places to stay that we frequently recommended.
Located on a quiet tributary of the Javari River, just over the border into Brazil (59 miles by river from Leticia) and surrounded by jungle vegetation and heliconias hide the Heliconia Reserva jungle lodge. Maloka Indian thatched-roof wooden cabins offer simple living with charming open bathrooms and garden views and are spread out among trails connected by wooden paths. The terrace bar-restaurant serves home-made local dishes and there are activities such as canoeing, canopy trails, bird and dolphin watching, as well as walks and visits to native communities.
Reserva Natural Palmari is located across the border in Brazil, three to four hours (depending on water levels and boat engine available) downriver from Leticia, Colombia. Accommodation options include three cabins (with small front terrace), four bedrooms with private bathrooms (cold water), as well as a ‘maloka’ and an ‘enramada’ for overnight stays in hammocks or dormitory-style beds with a communal bathroom. Further facilities include a visitors centre, watchtower, restaurant serving simple dishes and a river-front viewing terrace with loungers.
