Nestled just outside Yasuní National Park and within the Yasuní Biosphere Reserve, La Selva Eco-Lodge & Retreat offers an ideal Amazon adventure for travelers of all ages, from young children to seniors. This luxurious retreat, set in the heart of the rainforest, promises something special for everyone.
Situated on the north bank of the Napo River—eventually flowing eastward to merge with the mighty Amazon River en route to the Atlantic Ocean—the lodge is accessible via a mix of transport methods: plane, motorized canoe, foot, and a tranquil paddle canoe. This journey allows you to fully immerse yourself in the captivating transition from urban life to the lush Amazon rainforest.
La Selva Amazon Ecolodge features 19 spacious staterooms, including three Scenic Staterooms with views of Lake Garzacocha and four large Family Staterooms.
The Scenic and Superior Staterooms come with exclusive rainforest showers, private balconies, and panoramic views. In contrast, the Family Staterooms offer extra-large bathrooms, hammocks, and a hot tub on a private porch.
The design of the staterooms draws inspiration from the architecture of the local indigenous people. Their open, shaded layout ensures a cool environment even during the hottest parts of the day.
Perfect for today’s adventurous traveler, the Superior Staterooms blend traditional architecture with modern comforts. Elegantly decorated, they feature a large bed with a mosquito net, a cozy living area, a private balcony to enjoy the rainforest views, and a spacious bathroom with a refreshing rainforest shower.
The Family Staterooms offer ample space and comfort for families traveling together. They include a king bed for parents, two double beds for children, plus sofas and coffee tables. Each room also has a private porch to appreciate the forest greenery, a hammock for relaxation, and a hot tub for everyone to enjoy.
Perched high on the lake’s edge, the Scenic Staterooms provide an authentic rainforest experience. From your private balcony, you can admire the stunning colors of the sky and surrounding jungle at dawn or dusk, with a drink in hand. The staterooms feature comfortable sleeping arrangements, sofas, and a spacious bathroom with an enticing rainforest shower.
Knowledgeable guides will lead you through various activities based on the time of day, season, weather, group’s physical capabilities, and where they think wildlife is most likely to be spotted. Each activity is crafted to highlight the best of the Ecuadorian Amazon.
