Amazon Ecopark Jungle Lodge

Excellent location in Amazon forest, beautiful resort one can see a lot of birds they offer different tours like meeting of rivers, jungle trek, monkey park etc at extra cost on negative side pricey, rooms are not spacious and food is not upto mark

Guided tours are “canned “ 20 minute trips less than 1/2 mile from the “Lodge”. Our assigned guide was dismissive and unhelpful. Food safety is minimal. I personally witnessed a jam jar full of insects put out for guest 3 days in a row. Wait staff are excellent and friendly. Housekeeping staff are thorough and professional.

My husband and I stayed here for 3 nights for our first visit to the Amazon. We had a very good time but this lodge is better suited for families. It is not necessarily the best fit for young, childless 'adventure' tourists. This lodge does a great job of making the Amazon accessible for most travelers. There were guests from all over the world and of all ages here. Several full family groups (grandparents, parents, kids, aunts, uncles, etc) were there at the same time as us. Guides at the lodge appeared fluent in Portuguese (duh), English, Spanish, and Japanese. They were all very friendly and knowledgeable. The tours were not quite what we expected. The "jungle hike" for example was more a walk through the rainforest on a well-traveled path. "Night canoing" was sitting in a motor boat. All of the wildlife we saw was tame-ish. Monkeys living on the reserve and cared for by staff. Dolphins living in a particular part of the river and hand-fed fish ala Sea World. Again, very accessible for most travelers. The cabin itself was fine. The walls were VERY thin and our neighbor, an older businessman, seemed to live in his room and yell at people via video call all day long. I also didn't like the lack of netting around the bed. I know there aren't really mosquitos in the area but it keeps out other things too. The AC was crazy and I had to turn it off at one point. Pro tip, if the unit doesn't beep after you hit the remote keep trying. There was plenty of storage in the room but nothing that locks. We used a luggage lock because the room's door lock seemed a bit iffy. Bedding was clean but the mattress was a bit lumpy. You will need a Brazillian plug convertor if traveling internationally. The bathroom was very small. I don't know how the families with kids managed. But it was well-stocked with toiletries and towels. The stall shower has an electric hookup to warm the water. The water wasn't cold but it never really got hot. The food was ok. Not like you can go somewhere else if you don't like it. I think they were a bit thrown off by us being vegetarian though We always mention when booking. Breakfast and lunch was consistently better than the dinners. There will be food to suit most preferences. I can't guarantee the quality. The big challenge for us was the floating mats of grass. This was an unusual challenge for the lodge related to the recent draught. The tributary leading to the lodge was basically clogged with all this grass. You can't stand on it because it is on top of the water. You can't force it to stay in one place for long because it is not anchored. You don't really want to touch them because insects and snakes are living in them. The grass made it very difficult for the boats to navigate during tours and airport transfers. One boat got stuck in the grass for some time. We left early to the airport for this reason but ended up making it with plenty of time. Despite these challenges, the skilled and diligent staff developed a go

Wife and I stayed here 1 night off a cruise ship. Eco Park just opened Dec 20, 2023 due to drought and low water levels. Unf this hampered our boat tours as the water level was so low. Monkey Island was fantastic, great chance to interact with many species of monkeys. Lodge is great although warm as only AC is in rooms, rest is open air. Staff were fantastic, extremely helpful and attentive. Great guide. Food was extremely good with many choices in buffets. Water levels should be better by March according to guide. Even with low water this was our best interaction with Amazon rainforest on our cruise.

Beautiful and well-maintained property. The staff were friendly and went out of their way to accommodate requests that we had. The tour guides were interactive & knowledgable. They made sure that we had a great time on whatever excursion that we booked. We hope to go back soon!

Great chef, did not expect 3 courses meal at lunch and dinner. All the staff and the tourist guide Carols are super, not only friendly but also very sincere. I received a surprise gift from Guido who drew a picture on a card and made a fan for me, very touching! Highly recommended.
