History & Story
Built on stilts for minimal environmental impact, the 14 villas are spread throughout the jungle, each positioned for utmost privacy but within easy distance of the main lodge.
With the perfect mix of privacy in your villa, along with the opportunity to socialise at the bar and restaurant in the main lodge, Awasi Iguazú will be the perfect place to enjoy the very best of the Misiones Province. At Awasi, our mission is to provide memorable travel experiences and to share with our guests something of the culture and nature of South America’s most attractive corners.
Awasi Iguazu, located just 15 minutes from the world’s largest waterfalls, has 14 stand-alone villas plus a main lodge.
Main Strengths, Special Touch
We stand out from the rest by providing each guest personalized services and experiences. Awasi is the only lodge in South America that assigns a private guide and vehicle per room. Thereby, we adapt all ourexcursions to our guests’ tastes and preferences, without them having to adapt to the needs of other guests.
