Built using a combination of local natural products and modern technology the lodge has a central area comprising lobby, dining room, bar, shop and lounge and offers great canopy views of the surrounding forest. The guest rooms are comfortable and have bedside tables and chairs or hammocks. The rooms have one side open with great views of the forest. All have ensuite bathroom with hot and cold water. There are 3 grades of room: Tambopata Traditional, Rainforest Comfort and top-of-the-range Amazon Suite.

There are many activities available here including canopy climbing, night walks, visits to local lakes and visits to the nearby parrot clay lick.
