Nestled on the edge of a lagoon, Sani Lodge features ten exclusive thatch-roofed cabanas, offering an intimate retreat.
Lodge: Each cabana is thoughtfully designed for double or triple occupancy, providing a spacious haven for guests. Immerse yourself in the tranquillity of the lush surroundings, as screened windows ensure a restful night's sleep, shielding you from the gentle hum of nocturnal insects.
Our commitment to sustainable practices is evident in the use of solar energy to power electric lights, allowing you to experience the enchanting symphony of the forest after dark. For those seeking a touch of rustic charm, natural oil lamps are also provided, casting a warm glow that enhances the atmospheric ambiance.
Indulge your palate with a delightful array of Ecuadorian and international cuisine, crafted and served in our open dining area. Here, panoramic views of the lake and the sprawling rainforest create a mesmerising backdrop for your dining experience. The summons of a bamboo horn announces the commencement of meals, adding a touch of traditional flair to your stay.
The Sani Lodge open-air bar stands as a haven for bird watching. Throughout the day, this inviting space offers a selection of beverages and snacks, complemented by the convenience of binoculars, games, and books.
