Lodges in Iquitos

The place is clean and quiet - really a great location to relax and just enjoy the nature. We loved it and deffo a place to return.

PuraChata is truly an oasis of peace. If you’re looking for a place to rest and recharge, this is the place to be. The property is beautiful, very well designed and curated down to the smallest details. Everything is very clean and carefully maintained. The food is delicious, and the staff is simply amazing. Many thanks to Marta and her team for their warm hospitality and the excellent work they do every day.

After having stayed a night in Iquitos, I wanted to experience the jungle and decided to stay at a lodge. I am thrilled that I chose the Jacamar lodge - not necessarily for the lodge (basic and rustic accommodation, fairly priced), but because of the fantastic staff at the lodge and the amazing tour guide. I booked a night at the lodge, and was soon contacted to arrange a guide through the lodge (a must do, as it is difficult to explore independently). My guide Christian knew the jungle inside out, spotted so many animals, was telling beautiful stories about the life in the jungle, and was very knowledgable about the plants and animals. In my two days in the jungle I did a jungle walk, night walk to spot reptiles (saw frogs, snakes, tarantulas, other spiders, bats, etc.), a 5:30 am sunset birdwatching cruise, dolphin spotting, and we went to a rescue center for monkeys rescued from the exotic animal trade. Please note that these were the activities that I wanted to do - Christian said from the beginning that I can chose what to do, and he will guide me. The activities were exceptional, but even the boat rides through the big and small rivers framed by dense forest, looking to spot animals and hearing about life in the jungle was magical. The food at the lodge was very good. At the beginning they asked me about allergies and if I don't eat specifc things - I only eat fish and vegetarian food, and they cooked me great meals using the regional ingredients from the jungle.

Quality of the hotel. Both the rooms, the pool, the location, the staff and the overall vibe.
