Our Amazon jungle lodge
The remote location in southeastern Peru of our ecofriendly jungle eco-lodge, 68 kilometers by land and river from the nearest town, Puerto Maldonado, deep in the forest and close to natural oxbow lake ecosystems, means that the most remarkable natural attractions in the rainforests of South America can be reached easily in half-day or full-day guided ecotourism excursions, while evenings can be spent relaxing and enjoying the high-standard facilities and services we offer. At the same time, our accessibility means that you can visit us easily in the Amazon rainforest as part of your Peru vacation, after your trip to Machu Picchu and stay in Cusco!
As part of our all-inclusive and fully-escorted ecotourism jungle trips in the Amazon rainforest, we offer comfortable accommodation in cabin-style rooms, spaced apart amid the extensive tropical gardens we have created within the forest. For their comfort, we provide our guests with spacious SUPERIOR or SUITE rooms, on a single, double, twin or triple room basis, all with private bathroom and hot shower. Each bedroom has two walls formed from screens that protect guests from insects, offering a sense of close contact with the surrounding forest, while providing a secure and well-ventilated space.
Our jungle lodge has its own spacious and airy dining room, with walls formed by screens that protect against insects and a high roof built in the traditional Peruvian rainforest style, where we serve both typical Peruvian and international food as part of the full board all-inclusive jungle tours we provide. Peru is justly famous throughout the world for its fine cuisine, and at Tambopata Ecolodge we do everything possible to honor that tradition.
In addition, we also offer guests a beautiful, spacious and independent structure that houses our bar and lounge, surrounded by screens and crowned with a high roof, creating a well-ventilated and bright space and offering excellent contact with nature. In our bar, we serve a selection of Peruvian and international cold drinks. And during our guests’ stay, we include as part of their full board itineraries hot drinks, purified water and organic soft drinks made from local produce. (The bar service is not included as part of full board itineraries.)
