    Excellent location, views, and overall very special jungle experience! To be expected, there were lots of ants, mosquitoes, and other bugs, but it was manageable. We loved our stay!!

    Jaime and his family are the kindest and nicest people! They made me feel right at home and often stopped by my room to see how I was and just chat with me and always asked if I needed anything. Jaime came and got me when there was a sloth sighting on the property and his excitement for nature is really endearing. The wildlife spotting opportunities are excellent and you really feel like you’re getting up close with the biodiversity of the Amazon!

    Being out of walking distance to main town area can add to cost for a taxi.

    The service was excellent and Miluska, who is in charge of the accommodation, very friendly and willing to help. Breakfast and dinner were rich and delicious, definitely the best meals we ate on our entire trip. Also the location was beautiful as the accommodations are right on the river and surrounded by colorful plants.

    Occasional bugs in the bungalow; bit outside the city, neighbourhood not walkable.

    Nice location by the river; nice owner / staff always helping arranging tours and trips; cosy bungalows. Great for socialising as guests have dinner at the same time at the same table.

    Beautiful sights and a wonderful experience. A great way to see the Amazon on a budget.
    • Leisure trip
    • Group
    • Family Bungalow
    • Stayed 4 nights

    The hotel is a little far from the downtown area of Puerto Maldonado so you might feel a little secluded. However, this wasn't a big deal since my group came to Puerto Maldonado to see the forest, not the town. There is only one nearby restaurant, which is a 5 minute walk away.

    Staying at Tambopata was a wonderful experience. The bungalow windows have netting to keep out all the bugs. In the bungalows, you also get a great view of the river and you can hear the birds of the forest. The showers only had cold water, but that wasn't a big issue for me because the weather is so hot. My bungalow also had excellent wi-fi. The bungalow rooms were cleaned every day. I was able to book tours very easily through Jaime, the hotel owner. My group got to see the Caiman alligators, Lake Sandoval, the Macaw Clay Lick, and the Amazon animal refuge (highly recommend this experience). Jaime took care of all the tour logistics on very short notice. I was so impressed because the tours require you to take taxis and get on and off multiple boats. Jaime let us pay for all the tours at the end of our stay with a credit card. The tour prices were very fair. We ate our meals at the hotel. Jaime's family prepared excellent food. The family gave us a variety of dishes. They had fresh fish, fresh chicken, and they even had excellent vegetarian options. One of my favorite parts of my trip to Puerto Maldonado was the food at this hotel.

    We were happy there were mosquito nets, but they were a bit short. However, the entire lodge was protected by insect screens so we didnt get any mosquito bites :)

    The location was amazing, right next to the river. It is located a bit outside of the centre but they organised a tuktuk/taxi for us, which was great! They were super helpful and friendly. We wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy the beautiful nature, this accomodation and the people more! Definitely recommend!

    In google maps and in reality different location, gate to the hotel is closed. You need to use entrance of another hotel. Drunken owners and impossible in such situation to find someone from the staff.

    You are in real jungle. View from bungalow to the river. Breakfast that brings to the bungalow

    Nothing we didn’t like.

    The host, Roland, and his family were very friendly and did everything possible to make our stay pleasant. The lodge was very spacious and clean and the view of the Madre des Dios river is amazing. My favorite part was that the accommodation is in the jungle and surrounded by wildlife but at the same time there’s good connection to the town of Puerto Maldonado by car or tuktuk.

    There wasn't anything I didn't like apart from certain noises from the jungle at night. However thats what makes the place. Saw many sloths and monkeys at night from my patio....eventually I got used to the night time cacophony.

    Jaime and Roland who ran the lodge are extremely nice people. Roland is a trained jungle guide and arranged various trips for me at short notice. I enjoyed my stay and was very sad to leave. The wildlife is everywhere in that area. Had a great stay
