Find Your Connection to Nature

Nestled in the heart of the Peruvian Amazon, in the district of Santa Ana near the town of Tamshiyacu, our lodge is more than a place to stay.  It is a space born from the life and wisdom of the jungle.

Here, the rhythms of the forest guide our days, and every tree, river, and creature reminds us of the delicate balance that sustains this extraordinary ecosystem. Our project grows from a deep respect for this land and its people, honoring the traditions and knowledge of the local communities while envisioning a future where culture, nature, and healing coexist in harmony.

At our lodge, we are cultivating experiences that reconnect visitors to the essence of the Amazon. From immersive encounters with wildlife and the forest to learning about its past, present, and future, every moment is an invitation to witness and honor the life around us.

We work alongside local communities with care, ensuring that every initiative is grounded in respect, reciprocity, and shared growth. The presence of Ayahuasca, the sacred medicine of these jungles, reminds us daily of openness, healing, and the profound wisdom that emerges when we listen deeply to the forest and ourselves. Here, the Amazon is not just a destination—it is a teacher, a healer, and a community to embrace.
