Super séjour au coeur d'une réserve naturelle, bon repas et petit-déjeuner, lieu reposant et apaisant, merci beaucoup pour l'accueil <3 J'espère revenir :)
La ubicacion del lugar es genial! Las instalaciones estan muy bien y ofrecen una experiencia inmersiva con la selva, a pocos minutos andando hay sitios para comer y tiendas. Destaco la amabilidad y calidez de Johana, la dueña del lugar, que ha gestionado todo lo que pedí cuidando cada detalle, siempre disponible para ayudar a resolver lo que necesitaba. Yo viajaba sola y me sentí muy cuidada! Una propuesta de alojamiento sostenible, donde calidad y precio tambien son muy buenas! Lo super recomiendo!!!
Mejoraria la limpieza de los baños y duchas.
Die Besitzerin war sehr freundlich und hat sich viel Zeit für mich genommen. Sie spricht außerdem gut englisch! Die Unterkunft mitten im Jungel hat mir sehr gut gefallen. Ein tolles Erlebnis direkt in der Natur zu schlafen und so richtig entspannen zu können.
Super fresh and delicious
The hostel is like no other, based around 20 minutes away from the local town it is the perfect place to just stop and listen to the sounds of the jungle. Joana the host is such a warm, caring, intelligent human being that can't do more to make your stay as comfortable as possible. I have not stopped mentioning RENASE to anyone and everyone I've met that's mentioned they're going to Leticia.
That I didn't stay longer.
La tranquilidad allá es muy chévere. La dueña es muy amable y puede dar buenas recomendaciones y conectar con comunidades de la región. Una recomendación muy fuerte :)
Hay un espacio con hamacas, cómodo, pero podría haber más espacio para relajarse.
A beautiful stay right in the jungle, completely surrounded by nature — it truly feels like a peaceful little sanctuary. Joana was incredibly kind and helpful, making everything feel easy and welcoming. They offer great activities too — I joined a cultural experience and learned about the Yukuna and Murui Muina communities, which felt very real and meaningful. Would definitely come back 🤍
The hostel is a little outside of Leticia but easy to reach by bus, both from the city or the airport! It's the perfect place to explore the amazon, and sleep in nature, especially as Leticia is not a very nice city. Johanna and Juan Carlos are great hosts and have tons of stories to share. They can organize any sorts of activities for you!
Espectacular dormír con el sonido de la selva
Caminar para buscar la cena. Cómo no avisamos con tiempo había que caminar fue agradable la caminata de noche a la tienda pero si van a llegar después de las 6 mejor avisar que quieren cena!!!
Recomiendo este hospedaje manejado por Johana y Juan Carlos, son muy amables y tienen buenos consejos de excursiones, como la visita de la comunidad Muinane, que es muy auténtica y poco turística. También el lugar es fácilmente accesible desde Leticia con los buses, y es mucho más tranquilo que en la ciudad, durmiendo casi en la selva!
Todo. Si buscas descanso, naturaleza y buena atención, este es el lugar indicado. Johana y Mario son anfitriones espectaculares. El lugar es un sueño.
Completamente espectacular. Cerca de varios atractivos para turismo con las comunidades e ideal para quien vaya sin alguna hoja de ruta y quiera sorprenderse en el camino. Johana, Juan y Mario son increíbles personas y dispuestas a dar una mano, lo que hacen que la experiencia en ese gran lugar sea aún más memorable. Vale la pena pasar las noches en medio de la reserva y de la naturaleza.
Me gustó la atención de Joana, Juan y Mario y las instalaciones
Principalmente, su acogida y acompañamiento en todas las actividades. Johana, Juan Carlos y Mario desde su conocimiento cultural nos permitieron conocer mucho más. Fueron muy generosos en presentarnos el Amazonas y nos hicieron sentir como en casa. Se nota que disfrutan la vista de los huéspedes y dan lo mejor de cada uno para que sea un experiencia completa, de gran conocimiento y tranquilidad. Tuvimos una experiencia muy especial porque cocinamos, escuchamos historias y descubrimos diversos frutos que tienen en el espacio. Resuelven tus dudas, la comida es deliciosa y tienes una compañía súper linda con Celia 🐶 Es una excelente y única opción para conocer la naturalidad de Leticia y el Amazonas 🍃
My stay was amazing. The lodge is immersed in the Amazon forest. The location was ideal as it is easily accessible by bus from Leticia. Mario and Joana welcomed me and were always around in case I needed anything. Joana helped me organize activities around the Amazon and even helped me plan the rest of my trip to Iquitos. She arranged breakfast earlier than planned when I needed to leave early and prepared a small desert for me when I arrived. I truly felt welcomed and loved my stay at Renase.
La tranquilidad y espacio coworking
Nada
It's a very quiet place, great to sleep, to rest and to medidate. It's surrounded by the forest. The food is delicious and tipical of the Amazon.
I can't think of anything that I didn't like.
Prácticamente se duerme al aire libre, en contacto con la naturaleza, los sonidos de la selva te hacen desconectarte de la ciudad. La atención de Johana y Juan, muy amables ❤️
Quizá mejorar un poco el mantenimiento del lugar, la lámpara del lavamanos de la parte de atrás no funcionaba y las literas de la parte de atrás se miraban abandonadas.
El lugar es muy lindo y acogedor, rodeado de naturaleza y alejado del ruido, ideal si buscas tranquilidad. Los anfitriones son muy atentos y siempre están pendientes de que tu estadía sea confortable y especial. Puedes solicitar comidas (desayuno o cena), pero es importante pedirlas con anticipación para que las preparen. Las camas cuentan con mosquiteros, lo que permite descansar con tranquilidad. Para llegar, puedes tomar un bus que pasa con frecuencia durante el día y te deja en el kilómetro 10.5 (hasta las 18:00 hrs), o bien tomar un mototaxi, que cuesta aproximadamente 20 mil de día y 30 mil en la noche. El entorno es perfecto para caminar, con senderos marcados y una maloca dentro del terreno que le da un toque especial al lugar. En general, es una estancia muy recomendada para quienes buscan conexión con la naturaleza y descanso auténtico.
El lugar se encuentra en el kilómetro 10.5, por lo que no es ideal si tu intención es movilizarte caminando hacia la ciudad. No es posible salir a pie a comprar algo rápidamente, pero hay opciones de transporte disponibles, como buses durante el día y mototaxis. Es importante tener en cuenta que estás en medio de la naturaleza, por lo que es normal encontrarse con mosquitos, insectos e incluso algunas arañas propias del entorno. Por las noches puede sentirse algo de humedad, lo cual es parte de la experiencia en este entorno selvático, pero nada que impida disfrutar la estancia.
The location in a private reserve was great. Was very peaceful and very relaxing to fall asleep to the sounds of the reserve. Very easy to get to from town. The km11 bus stops right in front of the hostel. Buses go past every 20-30mins. Hosts were very welcoming and assisted with organising a night tour last minute. Also offered a bike for use to explore the area.
Nothing
A short review for Booking.com: The hostel is brand new and truly beautiful. It spans over 30 hectares of land, purchased by the owner, Johanna, as a nature reserve to protect and preserve the environment, fulfilling her legal duty. Johanna is a kind and welcoming host. The staff, especially Valeria and my guide, were wonderful. Everyone put in a lot of effort to ensure a pleasant stay, especially considering the importance of receiving a good review. These are the positive aspects of my experience.
A detailed review for Booking.com: While there are positive aspects to this hostel, there are also significant negative points that cannot be ignored. On my third and final walk from the hostel to the Maloka, I discovered a huge pile of glass bottles, some broken and many clearly several years old, partially hidden under leaves right on the path. I had only walked this route three times during my stay. On my first day, I had already noticed trash behind the communal area—visible the entire time I was there. I waited for the right moment to address this with Johanna, the owner. On my first evening, Johanna and I had a long, personal conversation. She knew exactly how important ecological responsibility is to me. I shared my belief that hotels and lodges that profit from nature—whether it’s a beach hotel or a jungle lodge—have a duty to protect and preserve their environment, not exploit or destroy it. She agreed with me and told me how she was supposedly fighting against litter and even educating the locals. She presented herself as a passionate advocate for nature and wildlife, referring to herself as the “bird lady.” However, on the third day, it became painfully clear to me that this is not the reality. If her words were true, I would not have found glass bottles scattered in the jungle. Before checking out, I confronted Johanna about the trash. At first, she refused to believe me and tried to justify the glass bottles by saying she was collecting them to mix into cement, claiming cement was too expensive. But this reasoning made no sense in the middle of the jungle. When I didn’t accept her explanation, she shifted the blame onto one of her employees, calling him an alcoholic who had caused this mess. Regardless, she is the owner and the person responsible. Instead of saying, “Show me where it is, I’ll have it cleaned up immediately,” she dismissed my concerns and later never followed up.
I had an exceptional stay at RENASE. Joanna is one of the friendliest and most helpful hosts I’ve came across in my six months travelling South America. She is a bird enthusiast and we went birdwatching around the reserve; she also offered local Amazonian juices & drinks for me to try. Breakfast exceeded expectations and the lodge itself is beautiful, being set within the jungle and built using a traditional bamboo structure. It is located just off the road and easily reached by bus from Leticia. Joanna helped organise my tours and was always on hand to assist. Couldn’t have asked for anything better, in fact I wish I could’ve stayed longer.
