AMAZON JUNGLE LODGE

     Idyllically set on the west bank of the Aguarico River in the north-eastern province of Sucumbíos, Paradise Huts offers tours of four or five days into the Ecuadorian Amazon Jungle.  Although only 3 & 1/2 hours from Quito, the capital of Ecuador, the private jungle belonging to Paradise Hut are only accessible by canoe.  Directly across from our jungle paradise is the Cuyabeno Fauna Reserve, and to the north are found settlements of the Secoya Indian Tribe.  Paradise Huts accommodates up to 36 people in six individual guest lodges; every lodge has three double bedrooms, each with its own private bathroom and shower.

     Additionally a spacious balcony is incorporated into each lodge, with hammocks and comfortable seats. The main lodge is centered around the spacious dining area and includes the kitchen and bar. Oil lamps provide the lighting throughout the lodges. The gardens within our small clearing are full of exotic plants, such as orchids and gardenias, tropical fruits including pineapple, passion fruit and bananas, and trees and bushes of coffee and palms, to name but a few.
