Offering a rainforest lodge experience on the banks of Pilchicocha Lake, Sacha Lodge is nestled deep within a private 5000-acre reserve.
An elevated boardwalk leads to 26 individual thatched cabins, each with a shady terrace and personal hammocks, which are decorated in a bright and spacious style with sustainable wood furnishings. An incredible base for explorations of the jungle and swims in the lake pool, guests can join birds and monkeys on the delightful canopy walkway.
This eco jungle lodge employs members from over 100 local families and offers guests the chance to explore remote jungles in the company of incredibly knowledgeable and friendly expert naturalist guides. A stay at Sacha Lodge is all about the jungle experience with entertainment taking the form of squirrel monkeys swinging through the trees above.
For a unique and memorable wildlife-viewing experience, head up to the magnificent canopy bridge that is suspended at a height of 94-feet above the rainforest or traverse the impressive 135-foot observation tower that clings to a giant kapok tree to experience close encounters with several exotic species of bird. Venture out on mysterious night-walks in search of caiman, take river trips by dugout canoe, witness a nearby clay lick or go on the search for piranhas.
Located in the depths of the Ecuadorean rainforest on the banks of the River Napo, Sacha Lodge is a 25-minute light aircraft flight from Quito followed by a two-hour river journey by motorised canoe.
Some of the wonderful places to stay that we frequently recommended.
Perched on the edge of Lake Garzacocha within the Amazon Rainforest, hours removed from the nearest town, La Selva Jungle Lodge offers a unique experience within an extraordinary habitat. Made up of 19 spacious suites, each with private porches or balconies and some with rainforest showers and lake views, the accommodations at La Selva Jungle Lodge are set within traditionally constructed cabins. Large gauze-covered windows provide a steady flow of fresh air in the absence of air-conditioners, and the rooms are pierced with memorable sounds of the jungle.
Burrowed in the very core of the Ecuadorean Amazon, Napo Wildlife Centre is a lodge owned and run by the local Kichwa Anangu community. The accommodations are spread between 20 rustic cabins, most of which are set slightly inland from the lake, built and decorated in a traditional style. Do not expect air conditioning, locking doors or glass windows at Napo Wildlife Centre – visitors will receive a truly authentic Amazon experience where luxury lies in the exquisite location, world-class guiding and an unimaginable abundance of raucous wildlife. Eight of the cabins are suites, each built on stilts over the lagoon and complete with private jacuzzis and an enviable lakefront location.
