About Kantu Garden Lodge

Wake up with the garden — palms, heliconia, birds, and monkeys.

Each bungalow opens onto its own patch of garden — cucardas and king's staff, anthuriums and ginger flowers, bamboo orchids and the parrot's beak heliconias the hummingbirds work all morning. Coffee on the terrace, a swim in the pool, breakfast at your own pace. The day arrives slowly here.

King and queen beds with woven-wood headboards, cedar ceilings, doors and windows, a writing desk in every room. Ground-floor rooms open onto a private terrace, upper-floor rooms onto an exterior balcony, and second-floor doubles include a mezzanine. Private bathrooms in all rooms, solar-heated hot water all day, eco-friendly soap and shampoo, and fibre-optic Wi-Fi throughout. The cloud-forest air stays cool — no AC needed.

Yoga at Kantu

A shala for indoor practice, a stone circle next to it for outdoor practice under the trees.

Two indoor spaces and an outdoor stone platform — mats, blocks, bolsters, straps and a sound bath kit ready to go. Private classes by arrangement for our guests, and a home to longer programs through the season — 200-hour teacher trainings and week-long retreats.

Eat from the garden. Sleep under the canopy.

Our kitchen draws on what is foraged on the property, picked in the garden, and grown nearby. Vegetarian, vegan, adapted for intolerances. All produce is locally and seasonally sourced.

From our guests

Guest Reviews

A place designed for connection.

"Surrounded by lush gardens and the vibrant nature of the Peruvian Amazon jungle, every detail invites you to slow down."

The yoga shala is something else.

"Wood, light, the sound of birds — practicing here for two weeks changed something in me."

Best food we had in Peru.

"Everything from the garden, every plate beautiful, the kitchen treated dietary needs like a real opportunity instead of a chore."
