Posada Amazonas

Great place just like in the pictures! Enjoyed 4 nights here, which is what most people do. The excursions were fun; however, be warned that some of those have large groups, especially the Otter one. They say no larger groups than 10, but they just add more guides, and then it is multiple groups. The food was very good, and the WiFi was strong, and Bryan, the Bartender, was good.

I took a group of 31 teachers/students to Posadas Amazonas lodge (it was not my first time at the lodge). The group was met at the airport and transported to a local school where we did a little service learning that was organised by Rainforest Expeditions. We were then transferred by boat to the lodge. The accommodation was exceptional, the food was excellent, the staff all very friendly and accommodating. They went above and beyond and made a birthday cake for one of the students in the group but was enough to feed the whole group. The guides were very knowledgeable of the flora and fauna which is what my group needed as they were doing studies in Geography and Biology. We touched on everything that my students needed to complete their work and have a proper experiential educational experience. The group was in constant amazement, especially when I took them up to the canopy tower to star gaze at night, what an incredible experience overall.

Fantastic resort and great daily jungle activities. Our guide Inez was terrific. A secluded resort in the middle of the jungle, large comfy rooms and plenty of communal spaces when you feel like company. We saw so many different birds, monkeys and of course the otters.

It was an amazing experience. To be able to climb the tower and look out on the canopy, see 4 different kinds of monkeys, river otters and be guided by Oscar was unforgettable. We heard about the research going on. Also to sleep in a lodge with one side completely open to the jungle was a privilege.

Excellent area of rooms, rest areas and -lace to eat and drink. Very well designed. All lovely varnished wood. Rooms with one wall missing, so open to the jungle! Using the mosquito nets after dark a must (staff put down and keep very clean) - please enjoy the wildlife that may enter your room. We had a little frog on our dressing table one morning, some large moths on the outside of our nets at night and some gorgeous crickets. Red howler monkeys in the trees next to our room. Food was so fresh and enjoyable, no problem for a vegetarian as long as they know. Staff and guides all local, knowledgeable and so helpful. We went at the end of October and there were not many guests at that time. Beware there is quite a walk uphill coming into camp every time - tiring in the heat.

I have held off writing a review for a few weeks whilst I think things through. The lodge was in an incredible location and the wildlife was out of this world. Our guide, Freet was very knowledgable and experienced. The rooms were nicely decorated and having one side completely open to the jungle was an amazing experience. I have no idea why the rooms were designed with low walls between rooms as this was totally unnecessary and having floor to ceiling walls would not have detracted from the ambience. You could hear everything from your neighbours, when they turned the lights on, when they spoke or went to the toilet. Just hope you have courteous neighbours. The food was ok. As vegetarians we basically just ate bread, rice and salad. The selection of fruit was great and fresh. We had one incident where a member of our assigned group asked to move guides due to a misunderstanding. Instead of moving them to a new group, the manager instead replaced our guide with a more junior guide. The manager stated that the previous guide was needed for another group that included a “social media influencer”. We were very disappointed with this as we developed a great rapport with our original guide and were very happy with him. We had no choice but to oblige with the manager and lose our knowledgable guide and friend.
