Below we provide a short list with some of the popular lodges in the Amazon Rainforest of Bolivia. Our list is in order of price with the cheapest lodge first. The description from each lodge comes from their own website. We made this list to make it easier to compare the different lodges. And we hope our list makes it easier for you to find the lodge that suits you best.
Ecolodge Caracoles
It takes around 3 ½ hours to navigate by motorized canoe from Rurrenabaque to our Caracoles Eco Lodge. Our lodge is located on the shores of the Yacuma River, surrounded by savannas and forests. Therefore its location makes the lodge a perfect starting point for tours into the Bolivian Pantanal.
The wildlife in this area consists of: caimans, alligators, monkeys, capybaras, anacondas and numerous bird species! Unlike in the rainforest most of these animals can easily been seen from boats travelling the Yacuma River.
We built our lodge in harmony with the surrounding nature. And the architecture of Caracoles Eco Lodge follows environmental design and management guidelines. The lodge has a hammock and social areas and offers limited energy from solar panels.
Our accommodation varies between comfortable cabins, rooms and dorms. All rooms feature: mosquito nets and a private bathroom.
