    I paid for a hammock and was upgraded to a bed with mosquito netting. It was a very comfortable setting, rustic but quiet and directly in nature.

    Beautiful area with a lot of trees and nature, relaxed environment, everything needed in the kitchen. Make sure you read the message from the hostel for directions because you won't find it on your own

    Casa do Xingu for sure exceeded my expectations. The professor (Juan) and the girls (Juanda & Dora) are really great hosts. With Juan, you can speak multiple foreign languages, discuss many subjects and indeed have a great start on the Amazon...

    Quiet location within a community just far enough away from the center, precisely what I was seeking. Fun conversations with the hosts and lodgers. Enjoyed our chess matches. Felt a more consciencious form of existence in contrast to the Leticia...

    Perfect place to relax and hang out on the outside of town (45 minute walk or 10 minute mototaxi) A shop with most things you will need is just a 5 minute walk away. There was always interesting and friendly people to meet for the 4 days I was there.

Our property is everybody's home, here we had hosted people from all around the globe, all over the house you'll find traces they left behind. We're a tiny guest house, only two bedrooms which are more than enough for everyone to enjoy being in the jungle. Local insight and contact with native communities at walking distance. There's a kitchen for guest full with local fruits and coffee.
I'm a teacher at a language school, you'll hear me talking about life thought language all the time, I'm very interested in native communities and I own another property in the jungle next to them.
In our neighbourhood you may be the only white creature walking around, this makes travellers special and of course you might end sitting in a table full of beers local will pay for you!. We're off the beaten track, we're the farthest 'hostal type' in town, that's something we're very proud of because downtown is becoming too noisy and too many tourists around, that's something we have our idea about.
