SANDOVAL LAKE LODGE
The extraordinary Sandoval Lake Lodge is located deep in the Tambopata
National Reserve, overlooking the sparkling, palm-rimmed Sandoval
Lake, the most beautiful and wildlife-rich of all lakes in the Tambopata-Madidi
area. The visitor has exclusive access to the lake in the early
morning and late afternoon, the choice hours for wildlife viewing
and photography. No other lodge in Tambopata-Madidi is situated on the
banks of a protected oxbow lake.
Located a 25 minute motor canoe ride down the River Madre de Dios
from Puerto Maldonado, Sandoval Lake Lodge is perched above what
many rainforest specialists feel is the most attractive lake in
Southern Peru, if not in the entire Peruvian Amazon.
25 double-occupancy rooms with private bath, hot running water,
electricity, fan and mosquito nets provide a comfortable standard.
A nice restaurant with view over the lake offers great food and
individual service. Sandoval Lake Lodge is built out of ecologically
considerate driftwood mahogany and is owned jointly by a nonprofit
conservation group and five families of indigenous Brazil nut collectors.
The lodge specialises in small groups and individualised attention
and has the overriding quest to conserve the lake and surrounding
rainforest.
The Sandoval Lake Lodge offers various trips by boat or foot, lake
excursions by day in search of giant otters, monkeys, macaws, and
other wildlife, forest and night excursions.
