Remote Escape

Calanoa Lodge is located in a private reserve in the Colombian portion of the Amazon rainforest, between Amacayacu National Nature Park and the river Island of Mocagua. Created by Diego Samper and Marlene Escobar, it uses natural materials and open design to honor the extraordinary diversity of flora and fauna of its surroundings. The woven palm roofs and minimal walls, as well as the elevated structure, increase air circulation. The lodge is also built on stilts to allow for better views.
