The Lodge is located in the Cuyabeno Reserve in north-east Ecuador. We are directly on the “Laguna Grande” right where you can find lots of wildlife and spectacular sunsets. Our lodge’s unique location offers the perfect combination of seclusion and quick access to the highlights of the Reserve. Our exact coordinates are: 00°00‘21.6” North 76°10‘47.7” East.

The reserve covers over 602.000 hectares of primary rainforest and possesses an incredible variety of wildlife such as river dolphins, caimans, anacondas, monkeys, spiders, and butterflies. The bird life is spectacular, you may see the prehistoric-looking Hoatzin stinkbird, Umbrella bird, Blue-headed parrot, Scarlet macaw, and the legendary Harpy eagle.

The rainforest continues to be home to different communities of ancient indigenous tribes such as the Siona, the Secoya and the Cofan. Each has lived in the Amazon Basin for thousands of years. The Cuyabeno Reserve and Cuyabeno Lodge are unique places in the Amazon Rainforest that give you the best  opportunity to observe the flora and fauna, but to also learn more about the cultures of the people. 
One of the best ways to explore the rainforest is by canoe. This is an advantage at Cuyabeno, being located on Laguna Grande. This way, you have the opportunity to view this wet and wild green world close-up and in a highly rewarding way.
