Posada Amazonas

Overall the experience was excellent. Very well designed hotel. Rooms were large and comfortable. The pickup drop off and the wild life tours were well organised. We saw some wildlife like 3 types of monkeys, capybara, otter family, caiman, barking dear and some beautiful birds and butterflies. The guides were ok. One of our guides was good but the 2nd guide was very disinterested. But our biggest disappointment was the food. Although the quality of food was good, the quantities at the buffet were limited and if you didn’t go early some of the dishes were over and they wouldn’t refill the dishes. They just said sorry it’s over. It wasn’t a good feeling when you are in a remote location and there is no ala carte to run out of food. The massage was also ok.

Traveled with brother, son and father looking for an Amazon adventure and we were not disappointed. We saw so many things: macaws, monkeys, capybara, giant otters, tree frogs and more! The mosquitos were REAL, get some Peruvian repellant with the good stuff don’t bring it from home.

We loved our stay here and we were sad to leave, but we genuinely enjoyed every moment of it. The meals were amazing, and there was such variety which we appreciated. The environment was also wonderful we were glad the group was distributed throughout the place, and not back to back in rooms. It allowed for privacy, as the rooms were exposed to nature and little critters.

Interesting bus and river boat rides bring you to Posada Amazonas on the Tambopata River. It’s managed by the Ese Eja indigenous community. Luis M., our guide, helped us observe birds and learn about plants and other animals. A canopy tower, clay lick and oxbow lake are highlights. All personnel are extremely kind and researchers give short lectures in the evening. The food is delicious! Excellent mosquito netting in rooms!

The immersion experience was great. Be prepared though to feel hot and full of bug spray much of the time. Wear hiking pants. Not Lulu leggings (too hot). The guides are great and you can do as much or as little as you want. We saw a lot of animals.

Posadas Amazonas is an eco-friendly lodge that makes a huge commitment to preserving the rainforest for generations to come. The food served (breakfast, lunch and dinner) is fresh and delicious! The staff is extremely knowledgeable and caring. A special shoutout to the lodge manager Cesar for ensuring that we had packed meals for the onward journey when we were delayed by a rain storm. The main attractions apart from the abundant wildlife are the canopy tower and nearby Oxbow lake. The canopy tower gives a great 360 degree view of the rainforest and we were fortunate to see monkeys and macaws from the vantage point. At the Oxbow lake we saw river otters and Caimans and we were able to catch a piranha fish as well. Overall, Posada Amazonas is a great lodge owned and operated by the native communities located in the amazing Amazon rainforest.

My high school girlfriends and I just finished an amazing experience in the Peruvian rainforest of Tambopata! We stayed at two ecolodges and the first one was Posada Amazonas, run by the native community of Infierno, their lodge is super cozy and the food is delicious and plentiful. We loved all the excursions! We climbed a 138 feet tall canopy tower with a bird´s-eye view of the forest, we enjoyed the time with macaws flying around us and a family of howlers monking around :) We actually saw five species of monkeys throughout the trails and near the lodge (from our rooms!). We went to an oxbow lake and saw giant river otters and a black caiman! Many birds, lovely plants, wild fruits, butterflies and funky fungi! We had a lot of fun and even some of us did mountain biking and others took massages in a beautiful setting. Our guide Lucy was so knowledgeable and great spotting animals in the forest. We wore long sleeves for the mosquitoes, but they weren´t too bad, but it was hot so make sure you take your water bottle with you at all times and a cap or hat when in the lake.

very well maintained rooms, staff attentive. Food was good with helathy vegetarian options . well planned tours and activities, although some activities like river otter view could be a little shorter. Our guide Joswell was very professional, knowledgeable and dedicated to his job. we had a good time on the tours with his instructions and also ended up with great pictures from his telescope. lack of airconditioning bothered us a little during the afternoon although that is expected at an ecolodge. Excellent experience and would recommend it highly

We had an amazing experience during our 4-nights stay at Posada Amazonas with our family (2 adults, 1 child 2.5 years old). The location is wonderful; really within the jungle and only 1.5 hours from Puerto Maldonado. The food was very good and varied. They catered to vegetarians. The rooms were extremely clean, well maintained and serviced routinely. Special mention to the staff who were extremely kind and helpful, especially Cesar the manager. Our guide, Oscar, was super knowledgeable. He helped us understand the rainforest and everything we saw. We had a small child with us and loved it. No problems whatsoever. If you are considering it, please do it. The child will enjoy it too. If you are considering visiting, I highly recommend it. It is beautifully surrounded by nature and gives back to the indigenous community. We absolutely loved it!!!
