CASA DEL SUIZO LODGE

zurück zur Großansicht Zoom

Only 6 hours from Quito, the Casa del Suizo Lodge is situated at the shore of the majestic Napo River at a pleasant high altitude. Above the little Quichua village of Ahuano the lodge overlooks vast areas of the surrounding Ecuadorian Amazon region.

Casa del Suizo offers you rooms equipped with all comfort and a terrace, swimming pool with pool bar, hammocks to relax and a restaurant serving delicious Ecuadorian as well as international and vegetarian dishes. It is an ideal place for families because the little ones can bath in the chilly wet after an exhausting day in the jungle.

Discover the rainforest in its total beauty, for example on a walk to Misicocha where you will get to know medicine plants or use Pangayaku, the path of the traps. An alternative way of moving offer the rainforest rivers: on a raft made of balsa wood. Both, nature friends and animal lovers will leave the lodge satisfied: the visit of a Quichua village remains unforgettable because of the taste of the Chicha-drink or the discovery of the own ability to use a blow pipe. The center for the reintroduction into the wild of animals, AmaZoonico, is not far away; too and here you can really see some parts of the original fauna that gets less and less.

Here you get more information about the programs.

Near the Ecuadorian-Peruvian border in the heart of the Amazon wilderness lies the Kapawi Ecolodge & Reserve, only a 2 hours flight from Quito. This ecological project has set new standards for 'ecotourism' and has been awarded the Ecotourism Excellence Award in 2000.

The lodge offers you 20 comfortable, recently renovated double rooms with terrace, a satellite phone, a small shop where you can purchase all necessary items for a stay in the jungle that you may have forgotten and as well products of the resident people, the Achuar, a well-equipped library, an inviting bar and an excellent restaurant serving local, international and vegetarian specialties. Furthermore, there is planned a "Interpretation Centre" for guests who are interested in getting to know the Achuar culture. The whole lodge is operated by solar energy and is the only one in Ecuador that is allowed to use the title “Ecolodge”. The term “untouched” can be interpreted by word here!

In this nature reserve covering 7000km² you can enjoy the rain forest in its most pristine way, for example on hiking tours through the ethnic primary forest, canoeing trips on the partly wild river or directly in front of the facilities on the lagoon, bird watching activities – and especially a salt-licking basin for parrots - or during visits to the local communities. The Achuar, the natives of the region, offered the role model for the architectural concept of the lodge and they will overtake the administration and management in 2011 completely. Since 2005 the Achuar employees are constantly trained in the English language, international cooking habits and tourguiding. What you can find here, is ecological tourism in its purest form!

In Kapawi Eco Lodge you can do following programs.

Experience a unique ecotourism adventure!

The aim is to preserve the ecological balance – and by this, you can relax in your hammock without bad conscience. Enjoy excellent local and international dishes in the restaurant and recover in the bar or the cozy common room.
