Accommodation
The lodge has 6 en-suite
double cabins and five
double rooms with shared
bathroom facilities.
Additional en-suite cabins
will be built in the coming
months. All buildings are
constructed in traditional
style of local materials
(adobe and stone) to ensure
they blend into the
environment, reduce the
carbon footprint of
importing materials and
provide local jobs during
construction. • Hot water is provided from
solar water heaters.
• Electricity is provided
from solar panels.
• Used waters are treated
through a sedimentation tank
and horizontal flow reedbed
treatment system before
being used for irrigation.
Dining Room
An open air dining area
maximises the visitor’s
interaction with the local
wildlife, with Peruvian
White-tailed Deer and
Sechuran Foxes being
frequent visitors during
meal times. Filtered
drinking water is available
at all times.
Food
The menu uses local produce
where possible and is a
fusion of traditional local
cuisine with international
elements prepared by staff
from the local community –
food cooked in the
traditional earth oven is a
particular speciality. All
meals are served in a buffet
style. Vegetarian options
are available with prior
notice.
Bar Service
Beer, wine, soft drinks and
some spirits are available
at the lodge. Bar bills must
be paid in cash.
Communal areas
Around the lodge there are
communal areas where one can
swim in the pool in the
stream, rest in a hammock or
just sit back and enjoy the
view. Out of respect for
others these areas are smoke-free
and no music is to be played
(with the exception of
occasional after dinner
guitar and singing sessions).
We also ask guests to be
considerate with their use
of cell phones in these
areas now coverage has
reached the lodge.
Trails
There is a network of trails
and some hides and
viewpoints for wildlife
viewing. See Activities
section for more details.
