We stayed here for 3 days / 2 nights in July of 2021. We had a very good experience. We were a family of 5 (2 adults and 3 children - 13,11, 9). We think this place is good to give an introductory feel of what the Amazon is like. We picked it because it didn't require a 3 - 4 hour boat ride like some of the more remote Amazon lodges. This, however, means that you are closer to town and you will hear a lot of boats passing by (even in the middle of night). ||||The family who runs this place is awesome. They are four brothers who actually built the entire lodge themselves. They have great stories to tell about how they built the lodge and what they had to go through to do it. They will really work hard at making your entire stay enjoyable. ||||We contacted the lodge directly and worked an all inclusive deal that would include meals and tours to some of the local attractions. We would highly recommend that option. (Monkey Island, which is an hour away was our kids favorite). ||||When booking this lodge, please remember that you are in the jungle. Showers will not have hot water. There will be mosquitos. Cesar got a mosquito net to put around our bed. We would recommend that option. ||||Our kids also enjoyed fishing for baby Piranhas right off of the lodge deck. We would recommend this. It was a fun activity. ||||My wife, who doesn't like the jungle much said that 3 days, 2 nights was "just right." ||||If you are going to eat at the lodge we recommend the fish. It was the best of what they had (although we weren't brave enough to try the Lagarto (or Cayman) ). ||||We would definitely stay here again. It was one of the highlights of our 4 week tour of...
