"Like sleeping in the jungle. Was a fantastic atmosphere "

"The staff is incredible!! I recommend this lodge if you want to stay in nature. The tour guides are very good and all the staff at the lodge are really helpful and friendly. "

"We had a delightful stay. The room was clean and comfortable and restaurant was excellent. Focus here is on birding and wildlife, so it's not a luxury resort. We had a private early morning birding trip with guide and saw toucans! Really memorable....."

"The seamless integration of nature, sustainability, and luxury is what truly sets Mashpi Lodge apart. From immersive guided experiences in the Chocó rainforest to thoughtfully curated cuisine rooted in local sourcing and Ecuadorian traditions, every aspect of the stay felt intentional and enriching. The level of personalization throughout—from dining and excursions to wellness offerings—created a sense of ease and connection, allowing us to fully engage with the environment without feeling rushed or overwhelmed. The balance between adventure and restoration was exceptional, particularly the guided walks and the tranquil spa experiences set within the rainforest itself. Above all, the lodge fosters a deep appreciation for conservation and biodiversity, transforming the visit into not just a stay, but a meaningful and memorable journey."

"Bathroom toilet wouldn’t flush all the way, made the room smell bad, and yes we didn’t flush any toilet paper, informed the manager about it and nothing was done, wouldn’t stay here again."
