Inkaterra Hacienda Concepcion

After a half-hour scenic boat ride from Puerto Maldonado, walk up the steps of the jetty and you'll be met by the sight of scented towels and a cool drink. Remote yet accessible, the lodge’s buildings are rustically elegant (it makes sense when you see it!) with beautiful palm-thatched roofs. The main building is spread over two floors, the dining room and bar on the ground and a scenic lounge upstairs. To top it all off, the food is delicious, the cocktails are refreshing, and the spa offers just the right dose of pampering.

There are 25 independent cabanas and five rooms, all with beguiling forest views. Surrounded by their own patch of garden, the cabanas are bigger and offer more privacy, while rooms are in an Amazon-style building - ideal for families or friend groups. All have twins or a large King bed, mosquito nets, cotton sheets and bathrobes, and plenty of hot water. There’s no aircon but ceiling fans are available to ward off the jungle steaminess, and rooms are airy with no glass windows and only nets.
