La Casa del Suizo




La Casa del Suizo jungle lodge is one of the most luxurious lodges in Ecuador’s Amazon. Located a short distance from Tena, La Casa has an outdoor swimming pool and 75 rooms with electricity, ceiling fans, private terraces, and hot water. The hotel restaurant serves sprawling buffets of international cuisine and the bar has a full menu of tropical drinks. There is international phone service available for guests, but it is costly.

The hotel began as just a lodging house in 1985 and slowly expanded over time to the luxury hotel it is now.

The lodge is only 15 minutes from the town of Punta Ahuano and can be reached by bus or car from Quito.

Traveler Reviews of La Casa del Suizo

Casa del Suizo

terribly expensive drinks, the food is good but always the same, native guides which their quality is poor in general, their English is awful, our native guide said he was paid pretty low, there is a horrible town right behind the lodge, that is really noisy and full of GARBAGE, you can see the sewer water running from the town right next to the hotel dock in the river. It is really AWFUL. The manager is a bitter lady that never smiles to any guest and the Lodge is really overpriced, plus we didn't get to see ANY wild life. We paid an anormous amount of money, researching some people told us that the wildlife from this area was gone at least 30 years ago. We were ripped off.

Take time for yourself

Everything was outstanding. The people there were eager to please and the service / food was very good. Plan on returing.

I'm originally from Ecuador, but I haven't been back for 23 years. I took my three kids ages 18, 16 and 12 and my husband just recently. They absolutely loved the experience. They learned a lot from the nature walks and they loved seeing all the animals up close in the animal rescue area. Except for the road leading up to La Casa De Suizo, everything, including the food there, was awsome.
