Pacuare

Tucked away on the riverbank overlooking the spectacular Pacuare River, within 25,000 acres of pristine rainforest, the multi award-winning eco-lodge is one of the National Geographic Unique Lodges of the World. Accessible only by 4x4 or white-water raft, and with just 20 suites and thatched bungalows in total, Pacuare promises a secluded experience, away from civilisation. Inspired by its magnificent natural setting, the spacious Nairi Awari main lodge is a palm-thatched, two-story structure. Suites and bungalows are carefully designed to blend into the forest and with teak wood flooring, private verandas, solar-heated alfresco showers and a panoramic jungle view. There is a spa, swimming pool, organic gourmet restaurant and wine cellar.

Arrive in style on a white-water raft, gliding along the river past gorgeous tropical scenery with plenty of birdlife around the riverbanks. Hearty gourmet meals and a range of activities are included in your stay, so you can choose from birdwatching, waterfall visits and jungle hikes with chances to spot jaguars, monkeys and sloths. The lodge’s dedication to the environment and local communities means that guests also have a positive impact.
