Eware Refugio Amazonico

From the beginning of the trip the coordination was very helpful and Zoraida and Carlos took care of everything for us to get on the boat from Leticia. The refugio is only a 20-25 minute walk to Puerto Nariño, but also only a 3-5 minute boat road that you can get from the main dock (and also can arrange with the hotel to assist). The peaceful atmosphere of the location and the benches by the river, the pool, the chickens roamin around, and the amazing hospitality make this a place I would definitely like to come back to. Carlos made it seem easy to help us organize our return boat back to Iquitos via Caballo cocha and we felt like there was nothing to worry about.

Very cool place - Carlos and Zoraida were the best and made every effort to make our stay as comfortable as possible. They helped us book all our excursions and made sure we knew all that the area had to offer. Carlos speaks great English and Zoraida was able to figure out what little Spanish my friend and I could understand and communicate effectively with us. I'd definitely recommend this place to a friend. They have a great staff of guides who were very patient with our poor Spanish and were able to enrich our experience greatly. Thank you Eware team!

Great location and good host- carlos looked after us and delivered fantastic tours.

Nothing- it was basic but we expected that in the Amazon. Location was amazing and the accommodation was clean and tidy

Carlos and his team are brilliant hosts. The refuge is excellent, offering great facilities and food for staying in the Amazon. We did three tours, all arranged by Carlos and all three were superb.

Its very hot in the amazon, so having an alternate cooling system for the day time (Fans only operate in the evenings) would be a great investment by the refuge.

This place is a gem near Puerto Narino. You we feel lucky to stay there. Carlos and his family do an amazing job, they are thoughtfull and always available. We recommand activities that Carlos offers with local guide in the surrouding area, you will learn a lot about the place !

The Eware Refugio is set in a wonderful garden on the banks of a tributary of the River Amazon, just a five minute boat ride (which the Refugio will arrange) from the attractive town of Puerto Nariño. The location is superb. With a proper sized swimming pool for lengths and comfortable hammocks and riverside seats, we spent several days relaxing and spotting the plentiful birds, pink and grey dolphin's, and even a rare otter. Carlos is a supremely friendly and helpful host who will arrange, at your convenience, and at short notice, one of a number of excursions at a fair price. A short kayak ride up the tributary is lake Tarapoto. We spent an unforgettable couple of hours at sunset watching the dolphins. It's also a pleasant walk down to Puerto Nariño. Dinners and lunches are tasty and reasonably priced and our room was clean and comfortable. Highly recommended for an intimate experience of the Amazon and its rainforest.

Nothing. We spent ten days here and would happily book again.

Very nice place about 30 minutes (walk) from Puerto Nariño. The walk to Puerto Nariño includes a stretch going through the forest - I wouldn’t like to do this at night. However, Carlos was super helpful and I was dropped off by boat. Also, you can get dinner at Eware (the vegetarian option was very tasty and I got seconds when I was still hungry). The place feels like a little oasis in the jungle, very calm and relaxing and everyone was very nice. Would definitely be back.
