Cabins in Puerto Nariño

Beautiful cabanas (wooden houses) on a private property with a lake,and a big garden. Only few minutes walking distance from the city centre. Everything was super clean. The attention from the whole family was perfect. They were friendly and warm. They offered us an amazing tours to enjoy the breathtaking nature of Amazonas. We loved it so much that we plan to come back again with our friends and family.

First of all, the community where the place is located is super safe—just like a typical village with chickens freely wondering around. I stopped locking my door the day after I arrived, once I realized how calm and peaceful it was. As a solo female traveler I value safety very much. Satori is located closer/deeper to the jungle so it is even calmer, and you can start your hike right at the gate. Sometimes monkeys would come to the site and I could watch them while having my breakfast/lunch. Secondly, I was amazed by the owner, a true animal lover and sustainability enthusiast. They handled everything themselves—gardening, improving the land, and preparing delicious breakfasts. Communication was easy. From the moment I made the booking, they provided a ton of useful information—like the boat schedule and more. I asked, and they arranged boat tickets and guided tours for me. Keep in mind, I don’t speak any Spanish! By the end of my stay, it felt like I was saying goodbye to a friend. Amazing people. The cabin was clean, equipped with a comfortable bed and mosquito net, fan, shelves and electrical outlets. When I wasn't hiking or touring, I enjoyed relaxing in my hammock outside the cabin. They also have decent Wi-Fi. There was a road construction down the road (village part), so I needed to detour (around 5 min walk). It should be gone in a month or so.

I loved this rustic camp in the rainforest, a modest but lovingly built family eco-tourism venture run by Jhon and his family. If you are looking for a truly off-grid experience, this is it. There is no electricity, and at night the candles flickering in open-air cooking and dining space, something like a traditional Maloka, are absolutely magical. Jhon's mother prepared me simple delicious food and freshly ground 100% cacao produced on the property, an overgrown cacao plantation. This place is completely surrounded by the sounds of the forest: it's about a 45 minute walk from the tiny village of Mocagua, including a short river crossing of the Quebrada Matamatá by dugout canoe. It can be muddy; the family provided me with rubber boots to use while I was there. A great place to completely unplug.

This place is a beautiful but rustic spot next to the Amazon river. The food was very good, usually fish from the river. At night the jungle birds and frogs sing you to sleep. It’s not a place for the squeamish, we had a tarantula on our ceiling, but the mosquito nets work well and you really get a chance to be surrounded by the Amazon rain forest. The tours they offer are very reasonably priced, but there are also plenty of places to just hang out and enjoy the nature. The common areas were very social and we had some great conversations with the other guests. Also, the staff was especially welcoming and made us feel at home right away. It was really cool to be able to talk to people who live in the Amazon and hear a little bit about daily life here. Overall, this was a huge highlight for us.
