Amazon Hotels and Lodges
Cabañas San Isidro - In the lush subtropical zone of the eastern Andes, Cabañas San Isidro has gained a reputation as one of the finest cloud forest lodges in Ecuador. 1,300 hectares of reserve (with well-designed trails) connected to two major Andean national parks, over 300 species of birds (including some of the most sought after in South America, like a probable new species of spectacular owl), recent sightings of large mammals such as Spectacled Bear, Puma, Jaguarundi and Giant Anteater, divine fusion cuisine considered as some of the best in the country, along with top-notch accommodations are all among San Isidro’s strengths. San Isidro is also a forerunner in conservation with many new land-purchases. If all of this, in addition to long hikes through virgin cloud forest teeming with native wildlife, and warm hospitality in a breath-taking setting all sound appealing, San Isidro is a destination that you won’t want to miss. Our travel agency, BirdEcuador, can help you in designing a personally tailored birding or general interest tour to our lodges and throughout Ecuador.
Cabanas Tres Rios – Nine wonderful cabins situated on the banks of the Rio Quijos midway between Papayacta hot springs and Cascada San Rafael, famous for fantastic Ecuadorian, vegetarian and international meals.
