Fodor's Expert Review Muyuna Lodge

Poised at the edge of a seasonally flooded forest on the tranquil Yanayacu River, this solar-powered eco-lodge is surrounded by exuberant tropical forest teeming with wildlife. Screened bungalows shaded by trees have attractive tile bathrooms, cold-water showers, and porches with hammocks; the nicest ones have river views. In addition to the wildlife close to the lodge, you’re likely to see cocoi herons, black-collared hawks, squirrel monkeys, dolphins, and much more on daily boat excursions.
