Awasi Iguazú
A secluded rainforest lodge near Iguazú Falls
Set deep within the Atlantic rainforest on the edge of Iguazú National Park, Awasi Iguazú offers an intimate way of experiencing one of the world’s most dramatic natural wonders. Rather than following fixed schedules or shared itineraries, the lodge is designed around privacy, freedom, and immersion, allowing guests to engage with the landscape on their own terms.


Overview
Awasi Iguazú occupies a privileged position within a private reserve, where dense jungle, shifting light, and the constant presence of water shape the atmosphere. The lodge’s fourteen villas are elevated above the forest floor, creating a sense of seclusion while preserving the delicate ecosystem below. From private decks, guests are surrounded by the sounds of birds, insects, and distant waterfalls, reinforcing a continuous connection to nature.
The experience is built around a highly personalized approach to exploration. Each villa is assigned a private guide and a dedicated four wheel drive vehicle, allowing days to unfold according to individual interests and energy levels. Guests may explore the iconic Iguazú Falls during quieter hours, venture into lesser known jungle trails, or focus on wildlife encounters and cultural insights, all without the constraints of group excursions.
Architecture and interiors are deliberately restrained, using natural materials and simple forms that allow the rainforest to remain the central presence. Large windows and open terraces frame greenery rather than views in the conventional sense, encouraging guests to slow down and observe the subtle rhythms of the forest.
After a day of exploration, the lodge offers a sense of calm rather than spectacle. Dining reflects the region’s ingredients and traditions, evenings unfold to the sound of the jungle, and privacy remains intact throughout the stay. Awasi Iguazú is not about conquering nature, but about inhabiting it quietly, attentively, and with respect.

“We want guests to leave with a truly authentic experience, feeling they’ve discovered the destination in a personal and meaningful way, connected to its people, culture, and landscapes.”
