Tucked away in the lush Atlantic rainforest just 20 minutes from the Iguazú Falls, Awasi Iguazú is an exclusive jungle lodge that redefines the luxury experience in northern Argentina. With a strong focus on privacy, personalized service, and environmental stewardship, this Relais & Châteaux property is ideal for travelers seeking a more intimate, immersive experience of the region.
A Collection of Private Villas
Awasi Iguazú features 14 individual villas, each with:
- A private plunge pool
- Spacious living areas with floor-to-ceiling windows
- Outdoor deck and rain shower
- Organic textures and local materials that blend seamlessly with the jungle setting
Each villa comes with its own private guide and 4WD vehicle, allowing guests to explore the surrounding region entirely at their own pace—far beyond the tourist trails.
Gourmet Dining in the Heart of the Forest
The main lodge houses a fine-dining restaurant led by a chef who works closely with local producers and indigenous communities. The menu changes daily and is tailored to guest preferences, featuring regional flavors with sophisticated execution.
There’s also a cozy lounge and bar area, ideal for unwinding after a day of exploring the waterfalls or the surrounding Misiones jungle.
Experiences Beyond the Falls
While the Iguazú Falls (both the Argentine and Brazilian sides) are a major draw, Awasi offers curated excursions that highlight the lesser-known gems of the area:
- Jungle trails with expert naturalists
- Visits to Jesuit ruins and Guaraní communities
- Kayaking or boating on the nearby rivers
- Birdwatching in one of South America’s richest ecosystems
Why It’s Special
- It’s the only hotel in the Iguazú area offering a fully tailor-made experience with private excursions for each villa.
- The location strikes the perfect balance between accessibility and seclusion—close enough to the falls but surrounded by pure jungle.
- Its design and operation are sustainably minded, with efforts to protect the forest and engage with local communities.
