November 10, 2026

PUERTO MALDONADO, Peru — Rainforest Expeditions plans to open Kuaii Amazonas, a 22-room ecolodge developed in partnership with the Ese Eja Native Community of Infierno, in spring 2027.

The property will be located near Peru’s Tambopata National Reserve and will become the fourth lodge in Rainforest Expeditions’ portfolio.

According to the company, the project is designed to center the guest experience around the Ese Eja community’s cultural traditions, ancestral knowledge and stewardship of the rainforest.

Kuaii Amazonas will feature 22 open-air accommodations overlooking the surrounding rainforest, along with a lobby bar, massage center and boutique.

Planned guest activities include guided rainforest hikes, visits to a canopy tower, wildlife excursions along the Tambopata River and trips to Lake Tres Chimbadas. Cultural programming is expected to include visits to the Ñape Ethnobotanical Center, where guests can learn about traditional uses of native plants.

Rainforest Expeditions was founded in 1989 and currently operates three ecolodges in and around the Tambopata National Reserve. The company works with Indigenous communities, researchers and conservation organizations on tourism and conservation initiatives.

Kuaii Amazonas is expected to offer three-day, two-night and four-day, three-night programs that include accommodations, meals, guided excursions and scheduled transfers from Puerto Maldonado.
