 Verified I spent 10 days at Cythina and Ben’s place that worked perfectly for my reason to be there, which is to rest and integrate. It was my first time staying in the jungle so took me sometime to get used to the environment including Amazon-style cold showers, which actually helped further release my fear after my ayahuasca retreat. Ben is very helpful and caring that made my stay more smoothly. Gaia is absolutely sweet! The location is away from the city, about 40 mins by motorbike, for those who enjoy nature and time away from the city. Bus is convenient to get you there. You may meet the frog Snoopy who lives in the bathroom, who is like a guardian of the land. Another thing is that the nearby market has a limited selection, which it’s about 15 mins walk for me. If you like this type of environment, this is the place for you! I am grateful for this beautiful place that Cynthia and Ben created, keep up with the great work! I wish you all the best. :)

 Verified An absolutely stunning place and very clean. I didn't get to meet Cynthia but her husband Ben was great to us.There is no (proper) supermarket or ATM nearby, so make sure to bring some food and cash. If you've got that covered this is a place you wouldn't want to miss!

 Verified I have had to say this a few times as we have traveled around Peru but this is the best air B n B we have stayed in. Really very peaceful and beautiful surroundings. Comfortable with all you need. The hosts are very professional and extremely pleasant. The nearby animal rescue place is both interesting and ethical. We saw monkeys, Tucan and a Tarantula (Not in the house but in the garden and also a harmless one.) Thank you for for a wonderful stay and all the best with youe future plans.You can catch at bus very cheaply to Varillal, 3 sol from town, 2 sol from airport. They have Varillal written on the front and the driver calls our the name too. If you get off around the animal rescue centre it's a short walk.

 Verified Eine wundervolle Unterkunft abseits vom touristischen Treiben. Mit dem Tuk Tuk oder authentischer mit dem Bus ist man schnell in Iquitos. Ein wundervoller Ort um den Stress des Alltags vergessen zu machen. Die einzige „Aufregung“ war der Besuch süßer Affen. Cynthia und Benjamin haben hier eine entzückende Oase geschaffen und stehen jederzeit mit Rat und Tat bereit.Vielen Dank für diesen entspannten Aufenthalt, wir haben es sehr genossen!

 Verified Cynthia and Benjamin are amazing hosts! The location is absolutely beautiful and private, a great place to reconnect with your Spirit and with nature. I had a few hiccups in my travels and they were extremely helpful and made sure I had everything I needed. I really appreciated that they stored my luggage safely for me while I went into the jungle for a plant medicine retreat. The bed was comfortable and I felt so grateful for the fan to beat the jungle heat . Everything I needed was within walking distance . I even walked to and visited CREA, a wildlife rehabilitation center that was so much fun ! I cannot wait to come back !

 Verified We had the most peaceful and relaxing stay at the Love Maloca embedded in lush jungle nature. The trail on the property is stunning, their dog Gaia is a great companion. It is the perfect place to disconnect from city life. In our case we arrived here directly after an Ayahuasca retreat closeby and were able to continue our dieta with a fully contained kitchen in the maloca. A truly unforgettable stay. A massive thank you Cynthia!

 10Verified Incredible stay ☺ What an experience! I absolutely loved my stay and massive thanks to Benjamin and my best dog friend Gaia.  The location of the lodge is just stunning, as is the lodge itself.  Absolute paradise! The lodge is super clean and has everything you need,  including the most friendly dog. Benjamin is just the best host and has lots of information. Definitely add on the  breakfast,  the pancakes and fresh fruit from the trees is perfect! You may get lucky and  be greeted by the little monkeys.  I'm very sad to be back in Lima! ☹ Everything was perfect!

 10Verified ☺Hospedarnos en este lugar fue una experiencia verdaderamente única. Nos encantó porque nos permitió estar en contacto con la naturaleza, rodeados de vegetación, sonidos de la selva y una tranquilidad difícil de encontrar. Al mismo tiempo, el alojamiento cuenta con todas las comodidades necesarias para disfrutar la estancia con total confort: es el equilibrio perfecto entre aventura y bienestar. Cada dia vimos decenas de monitos que pasan por el lugar y un dia vimos un perezoso en muy cerca de la cabaña. Además de muchas aves. Cyntia y Benjamin estuvieron siempre atentos a resolver nuestras dudas. Su calidez y hospitalidad hicieron toda la diferencia, y nos ofrecieron recomendaciones de actividades perfectamente alineadas con nuestros gustos e intereses. Sin duda, un lugar al que nos gustaria regresar.

 10Verified Wonderful stay with a great host and cozy atmosphere ☺ I was warmly welcomed by Ben, the host — he was incredibly kind, explained everything clearly, and we had some great conversations. I felt at home and very safe throughout my stay. His dog Gaia was absolutely adorable and added to the homely vibe. The breakfast was excellent, with fresh fruit and delicious granola — a perfect start to the day. The maloka itself was super comfortable and well furnished, with a thoughtful and cozy design. A fun little bonus: Snoopy, the frog in the bathroom — he made me smile every time. :) And even monkeys visited me in the morning. Would absolutely recommend this place for anyone looking for a peaceful and warm experience before or after retreats.

 10Verified Merci Ben! ☺ Everything! From delicious breakfast ( Ben makes the best pancakes in the world) to beautiful cabaña and interesting conversations, everything was perfect. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you may need, and you can prepare meals for yourself. I can truly recommend going for a walk in the night in search of frogs and other beautiful creatures. You can also enjoy cute monkeys! Great place to relax with the sounds of nature, but if you need to do some work, there is super good internet.  This place was a real gem of our trip! Thank you

This is an ideal place for relaxation and solitude with nature. Fantastic atmosphere! This place is filled with harmony. The owners are good-natured and very helpful people, ready to help with any issues. The houses are clean and cozy, where there is everything and even more. I recommend visiting this heavenly place. Amaca Eco Station and Gaia🐕‍🦺 are now in my heart 🫶 and I will definitely be back! ¡Hasta pronto!

I have traveled to many beautiful places but Amaca has magic, its sight and day and night sounds clear you and heal you in every way, a lot of peace, comfort, Benjamin the owner is very kind and makes you feel that you are better than at home, I was very sorry to leave your lodge, the cabin has everything to go as a family or as a couple, the winery two blocks away where you find everything and kitchens with the best view and energy in Iquitos, I will return once a year to renew myself, thank you so much Amaca ❤️ ‍🔥

We so enjoyed staying at Cynthia and Ben’s space! It was exactly what we needed after sitting in plant medicine group the weeks before. This space was perfect for cooking for ourselves and hosting a tranquil place for my partner and I along with our best friend stay. They helped us with the transport from IQT to AMACA which was a perfect distance away from the busyness and also to get to the airport once leaving. Helping us with luggage and having furry friends both brought smiles to our faces. Would love to stay here again and am very grateful for this space! Thank you!

Amaca eco station is a perfect place into the jungle if you want to relax, rest and be in the nature.

We loved our stay there. The house is quite big, very clean and the quality of the mattress and pillows are excellent. The kitchen is working perfectly and has all the necessary to cook.

You are surrounded by birds, monkeys and jungle noises. We slept like babies during 3 nights. We did not get even 1 mosquitos bites.

The houses are hide by the forest so you cannot even see your neighbor, we loved the concept of this place.

Benjamin and Cynthia have been very kind and helpful, they gave us a warm welcome and make us feel like home. They also respect your privacy a lot and where never stepping in.

The only negative point was internet as it was not working all the time. Benjamin tried to fix it for us, he was very dedicated. So if you need to work or have meeting, maybe not the best place.

There is a restaurant at 15 minutes walk but very expensive so I would definitely recommend you to bring food from Iquitos to cook by yourself. Also there is a small shop at the road, 15 minutes walk, where you can buy some bites like snacks, banana, oignons, drinks, ..

We loved the dog Gaia ❤️

Beautiful place away from the craziness of the city but very easy to access from Iquitos. Rooms are beautiful and comfy, lush surroundings and very friendly and helpful owner (with the best dog ever, Gaïa). We hope to be back some day!

We spent two incredible nights at Ben's Maloca and it was truly one of the most amazing experiences. The room was exceptionally well appointed and we discovered our favorite restaurant, El Mijano, nearby. Ben's place is not only nestled in stunning natural surroundings, it's also very peaceful. Besides the warm welcome from Ben himself, we were also greeted by Gaïa, a lovely girl who brought an abundance of love and tranquility to our stay. I highly recommend Ben's place if you're looking for a quiet retreat in the beauty of nature.

After a lot of hustle and bustle in Iquitos, we felt very comfortable in Amaca! Benjamin and Cynthia have put a lot of attention to detail into this beautiful place. There were two of us in the beautiful Maloca, which had a perfectly equipped kitchen with a large refrigerator and blender. A dream for us after we had been traveling for some time. If you love dogs, this is the right place for you - Gaia follows you every step of the way. In addition, you are surrounded by large and small animals, almost like you are in the jungle.

I’m so grateful I stumbled upon Amaca while searching for a quite spot in the jungle to integrate after a plant medicine retreat. The Maloca was so clean and comfortable. I had everything I needed. The hosts went above and beyond to ensure I was take care of. I couldn’t recommend Amaca more. This is a beautiful balance of comfort, incredible nature settings, jungle sounds, the convenience of shops restaurants and a wildlife rehabilitation centre within a short, charming walk. My favourite part of my experience was the beautiful bond Gaia, their dog and I shared. Looking forward to my next visit! ❤️

The two rooms are beautifully done “malocas” with a small kitchen and own bathroom in each. They are in a pretty section of the jungle not too far from town. Our hosts were kind and wonderful. For the price a truly excellent value. Highly recommended!
