Kuyana Amazon Lodge

Lovely place to stay and lots of activities. It’s a bit pricey but our guide Miguel was very knowledgeable.

Un paseo inolvidable, un pedacito de suelo que te transporta a una experiencia maravillosa, para disfrutar de la naturaleza, la buena comida y el descanso, una excelente opción para ecuatorianos y extranjeros vale la pena visitar Kuyana

After driving down a nearly impassable narrow road from Archidonas we arrived at the Kuyana Amazon Lodge and it was like entering paradise. We were met by our guide Miguel who attended to our every need for the three days we were there. We were served traditional native welcome tea when we arrived after which we were escorted to our cabin. The cabin was beautiful and very clean and well supplied including drinking water, shampoo and a hairdryer. The staff cleans the cabin every morning. The meals, which were local cuisine, were very tasty and beautifully presented. Our guide explained each meal to us. One evening we were able to prepare our own dinner, tilapia wrapped in a banana leaf. We prepared cocoa beans, cooked them and enjoyed them for dessert. The tours offered were well worth it. The hike to the waterfall was wonderful and the swim was refreshing. Our guide was very knowledgeable as well as personable and engaging. I recommend the night tour where you encounter Amazon creatures you’d never come across during the day. At night the jungle comes alive with so many interesting sounds. The pool is clean and refreshing. We fell in love with Ramona, the rescue monkey that lives at the lodge. She is so entertaining and a lot of fun to have around. Our time at Kuyana Amazon Lodge was one of the highlights of our vacation.
