It’s not everyday that one gets to explore the mighty Amazonian rainforest and sleep in a hotel that is miles away from the nearest motorable road. Posada Amazonas Rainforest Lodge is the perfect accommodation for your first foray into the rainforest. Guests fly into Puerto Maldonado Airport. A quick bus ride and a boat ride from the bring guests to the hotel.

Rooms are well furnished and boast of comfortable beds, mosquito nets, and toiletries. Electricity is precious in these parts of the world as most power is generated through solar panels. It is possible to choose rooms with and without electricity. Some of the rooms even boast of an open wall that looks right into the rainforest. We’d suggest opting for these as they take the experience to a whole new level.

There are plenty of excursions available in the area; in fact, you just need to step out of the hotel to be in the midst of wild nature. Admire gigantic Brazil nut trees, go for a guided walk in the area, or go star gazing in the middle of the night. The area boasts of millions upon millions of twinkling stars and surreal night skies. One of our favourite things to do at Posada Amazonas Rainforest Lodge is to go looking for the elusive and colourful macaws at a clay lick—a sight you won’t forget for a long, long time.
