Beautiful cabins in the Leeds. Wake up to the sound of the animals and birds

“The best place of our tour in Colombia”

I ordered a Cano Cristales tour in La Manigua Lodge after intensive search in the Internet and I very happy with my selection. Perfect place, very friendly staff (thanks to the owner Jose Pablo and the manager Rafael). Breakfast, lunch, diner were tasty (thanks to the kitchen staff). Cano Cristales tracks were perfectly organized, each day more wonderful places than in previous one (thanks to our guide JP). In the evenings different activities, so we were so tired, that missed the last night activity with Rafael (what a pity!). There is WiFi in the public place (don't forget to ask , because it is not mentioned in confirmation of the booking).

Location, location, location. Service was really good Evening activities like a serenade on the river

“Absolutely phenomenal experience we’ll never forget”

La Manigua is located in a secluded jungle setting, only accessible by river. It is a breathtaking location, blended with nature and yet extremely comfortable. The staff were amazing and did everything possible to ensure we had a perfect stay. The food was always delicious and made fresh for our daily trekking, wrapped in banana leaf, consistent with their eco-friendly ethos. The dining room is the heart of La Manigua, a place for guests to meet and talk, to learn about the daily plans and observe all kinds of animals. The logistics were impeccable, meeting us at the airport, preparing us for our first hike, activities in the evenings (cocoa workshop, sunset serenade on the river) and getting us back for our return flight. Our guide Noé made sure we were safe, kept to an ideal pace and ensured there were countless opportunities for swimming.

“Beautiful jungle setting”

Manigua Lodge is the best lodging in La Macarena and is on the pricier side but was really worth it. It's the best place to stay if you want to feel immersed in the jungle. We stayed 3 friends in one lodge and each had our own bed. The setting is really beautiful and we saw lots of wildlife, including monkeys and a frog in our room! The room was of impressive standard, particularly considering the location. We stayed 2 nights here and organised a separate tour through an agent in the village but if you want to do a private tour you can book directly with the lodge. Most of the others who stayed here were Colombian and really friendly. The food was good too. I enjoyed showering in the semi-open. There is a tiny bit of internet available, but tbh I appreciated being off grid for a few days! We also did a cocoa bean tour within the grounds organised by the lodge, which was really nice.

“Perfect to reconnect with the self leaving aside the outside.”

I left the place in love of what I lived there... It's a really magic place where you feel so relaxed in nature, safe and like in family as all the stuff is very kind and caring.
