We spent three days at Yarina Eco Lodge and were thoroughly impressed. The entire package – transfers, accommodation, meals, and activities – was very well designed and executed with a high level of professionalism. Everything ran smoothly, allowing us to fully enjoy the Amazon experience.
The accommodation offered good comfort while maintaining a genuine rainforest setting. The kitchen was excellent, with varied and flavorful meals showcasing local ingredients. The entire staff – from service and housekeeping to maintenance and boat drivers – were friendly, attentive, and consistently helpful.
Our guide, Livio, deserves special recognition. He played a key role in shaping and delivering our activities, making the experience truly exceptional. Through his deep knowledge and engaging approach, he brought the rainforest to life during jungle walks with wildlife spotting (birds, monkeys, frogs, insects) and insights into the impressive flora, including towering trees and medicinal plants. He also guided us on boat trips along Napo tributaries, piranha fishing, and memorable night excursions both on foot and by canoe. A visit to a local Kichwa family added valuable cultural context.
Highly recommended for a well-rounded and authentic Amazon experience.
Staff was excellent in helping me adjust and also help me in getting a tour guide last minute. My room upgrade was wonderfully amazing and everything was very clean. Breakfast was delicious and I really enjoyed my time here. My experience in Machupicchu was incredible and this hotel made it perfect! Highly recommend this hotel to anyone coming to Machupicchu!
Henry, our guide took great care of us. We liked that the lodge was more casual, no staff in pressed white shirts. We highly recommend Yarina Eco Lodge!
