Sotupa Eco House

Sotupa Eco Lodge has been a highlight of our South American adventure. While the lodge is beautiful it's the staff that make it a truly unforgettable experience. Each and every staff member was wonderful! We enjoyed all the activities, particularly kayaking down the river. Our guide, Cero, was awesome, he was both attentive and knowledgeable. Meals at the lodge are healthy and tasty, we especially enjoyed the fresh juices served with each meal and the delicious passionfruit mousse, 😋 thank you to Chef Alan who made each meal special and even sang for us on our last night! Thank you to the manager George for going out of his way to help make our stay memorable. We left feeling rested and with many wonderful memories, we hope to one day come back 😊

Great place to have an adventure, rest and just enjoy nature. Location is excellent, very close to the airport so you get to the lodge in less than 30 minutes. The manager and each staff member are just great and will make you feel like a home away from home. They are willing to help you and will tell you many stories. It is a fairly small lodge but you have everything you may need including all three meals cooked specially for you and they will ask for your food restrictions and allergies to accomodate everyone. They offer several activities like bird watching very early in the morning, river navigation, night walk through the forest, morning walk to explore the vegetation, kayak or paddle down the Tambopatsa river, etc. They also have a small pool to relax and refresh. Sunrise and Sunset are spectacular and worth waking up early and staying by the river in the afternoon. If you stay long enough, there are other activities outside of Sotupa Eco Lodge. At walking distance you can visit the Amazon Shelter, where they rescue animal to retunr them to nature. You would love to take an excursion to Lake Sandovel (full day trip) and maybe even go to the city of Puerto Maldonado to visit the market and have some local food (don't miss the river fish and the cecina). Cabins are comfortable according to the location (don´t forget you are in the middle of the Amazon Rainforest and within the Tambopata National Reserve). I went there with family and we had a great time doing all kinds of activities and just enjoying the views and the sounds of the amazon. I haven't had such relaxing sleep for quite a while... We all wanted to stay longer.
