Amazon Jungle Lodges and Hotels in Iquitos
Paseos Amazonicos Jungle Lodges has paid
much attention to the rustic design of its three
jungle lodges, not only to comply with
ecological principle of keeping-in-harmony with
the natural environment that surrounds each one
of them, but also to provide visitors with
infrastructures that allow a closer approach
with Nature and the Amazon culture. Architects
and native laborers worked in the design and
construction of each one of the facilities'
buildings and its furniture with the purpose of
offering the visitors a beautiful sight, natural
light and ventilation, space, comfort and safety
to enjoy their stay in the jungle. Wood for the
constructions was supplied by lumberyards that
comply with responsible timber harvest and
reforestation regulations.
Paseos Amazonicos Jungle Lodges considers
that the use of energy sources in their lodges
not only should cause the least negative impact
on the surroundings but also in the national and
international context, when it becomes part of
the increasing demand of fuel and other derived
products which cause environment pollution. The
company has determined that the demanded
electric energy need for food conservation, cam
battery charging, kitchen equipments and
lighting of certain lodge areas should be
restrain to specific schedules. Communication
equipments, alarm and emergency light systems
use rechargeable batteries and solar panels.
During the night most lighting is provided by
kerosene lamps.
