It was wonderful to stay with Vanesa! The room is perfect, great location, she connected me with a great moto driver and they went far beyond expectation in picking me up at the airport. Highly recommended!

Staying at Vanessa's house was wonderful. She was there waiting for us upon our arrival and led us straight to our room (we were exhausted). The room is very well equipped and the bed is comfortable. The water pressure in the shower was great, she provided fresh towels, and the room is perfectly quaint. She prepared a beautiful breakfast for us and we ate dinner together a couple of times--Vanessa is a wonderful host and great company, I would stay here again in a heartbeat!

My first night in Iquitos was ok. Unfortunately Vanesa was sick. But here mother took care of me and even vent to the Belen Market with me, to make some errants. Thanks again Vanesa.

Vanesa was a great host & of an immense help. She's local so she knows about the city, food places, and the sight seeings. She connected with me her brother for a boat tour- that was a great experience! We also went to Belen street market, you wanna go with a local to that place.. The place is 5 mins away from the plaza and the boulevard. The room and restroom aren't the biggest, but it was good for me! There's an AC in the room, that's a plus for tropical iquitos. Thank you Vanesa! Keep it up.

Excellent place to stay if you want a base from which to explore the nearby jungle. Vanesa is super helpful in arranging for nearby excursions, but that said, Iquitos is still very tricky to navigate, so make sure you have clear plans before going!

First of all, Vanessa's place is tiny but comfortable and she provides all the basic necessities. Vanessa is very welcoming and made us a lovely breakfast on our first morning. However, please do not trust Vanessa to help you with taxis and tours the way we did. The reason for this is that her "amigos" will overcharge. They overcharged us in her presence but she did not correct them or tell us what the real price should be, therefor it seemed like she helped to rip us off through these alliances. We had this happen to us several times before we grew wiser. The Mototaxi from the airport to Vanessa's place should be about 5-10 soles and we paid 50. A mototaxi to QuistoCocha should be about 12-15 soles and we paid 50. We also paid 80 dollars each for a fake jungle tour that turned out to be a joke. Note: you should never pay in dollars, only use soles. Please do your research before you arrive and do not accept any transportation or jungle tour that Vanessa offers to organize for you! You can ask honest locals or read reviews online to find the right prices and the best thing to do in the area. We felt so bad about how Vanessa treated us, don't let it happen to you!

Vanesa estaba de vacaciones cuando llegamos pero su mamá estuvo siempre al pendiente de cualquier cosa que necesitamos. El lugar es pequeño pero muy acogedor, la cocina tiene lo necesario para cocinar súper agosto y la mesita en el exterior es excelente para trabajar/comer. La ubicación también es excelente, afuera es ruido y caos pero adentro es todo tranquilidad. Es la primera vez que uso Airbnb y la verdad es que fue una excelente experiencia y si pueden quedarse con Vanesa de verdad que no se van a arrepentir.

This place is great. The location is perfect and Vanesa is super helpful.

Location, location, location! This apartment is absolutely one of the best locations you can get in Iquitos. Very safe area with a lot of tourist and police officers walking around. Along a strip with all of the best restaurants and close to the main Plaza De Armas. In the apartment you don't have to deal with looking at the city or it's noises as the apartment looks out towards the Amazon River. The AC works like a champ as well!

Jim is a great host - we were made to feel very welcome and he was happy to help with anything we needed. His place is the best location in Iquitos, peaceful and tranquil and a stones throw away from all the best cafes / bars / restaurants on the boulevard. Nice view of the Amazon too. Highly recommended!

Logement extrêmement agréable, bien situé sur le Boulevard piétonnier, donc calme en comparaison du restant de la ville, très bruyant. La vue sur le fleuve est magnifique et changeante à chaque instant. Jim sait être un hôte discret et disponible tout à la fois.

3.5/5, decent location, but wifi doesn't work well (because it's a single connection shared for many, I then bought a Movistar sim which worked much better), the door to the apt didn't lock, kitchen utensils were a bit dirty and I had to wash everything again, paid for a night in cash and Jim took 2 days to give me 60 dollars change and I had to ask several times. That aside, AC, hot water and stove work well and Jim's a nice guy.

I came to Iquitos with a buddy of mine that visits there all the time. Each of us reserved an apartment at Boulevard 251 apartments. My friend had stayed there before but this was a first time for me. Wow, what a great place. A million dollar view of the river and jungle, a very comfortable bed, great bathroom with hot water shower and a small kitchen if I wanted to eat in. The location is great. Very close to the river walk area with craft and art vendors and many great places to eat. Everything we needed was within walking distance. We were on the go so much that I only met Jim once and he was very kind and sincere. If I ever go back to Iquitos I'm gonna stay at Jim's place again. I highly recommend it.

My very successful trip started when I first contacted Jim. Gracious, kind and a wealth of information about Iquitos and especially putting me in touch with an experienced guide (Marcos) for a Pacaya Samiria adventure. The sole purpose for my trip was to spend a few nights in the reserve and Jim made this happen. My experience remains priceless. Jim's place is like no other in Iquitos. It's in the middle of all the activities, but yet a santuary when you need your space, security and privacy. Very clean room, with all the comforts you could possibly need away from home, including all the little extras, like bug spray, insect repellent, water etc. Exceptionally hardworking, helpful and kind staff. I felt like family while staying there. Thank you Jim and I hope to see you guys soon.

Jim was a great host - we requested to book last minute not expecting much and on the same day within the hour Jim invited us down to check out the apartment. The one we requested was occupied and so he gave us an even bigger apartment for the same price and was extremely accommodating, especially considering the short notice we gave him. He also gave us great advice on what to do locally and made us feel very welcome, thank you!!

This is a lovely apartment in the best location in Iquitos - super close to the restaurants/bars along the Malecon, and just a few minutes from the main plaza. The apartment is just as it looks in the photos, with an spectacular view. We had a few issues with internet and noise from the construction, but Jim was extremely responsive and helpful. Once the construction in the building is complete, this will be the perfect place to stay!

Staying with Linda and Julio was a really good experience. Clean spacious room, lovely garden with a little pool and a hammack. They are such a sweet couple, trying to think with you if you need to get something done. I felt very welcome and taken care off with love. Can definitely recommend staying at their house.

Linds y Julio fueron unos buenos anfitriones, nos ayudaron a instalarnos y a pasarla muy bien!

La casa de Linda y Julio es muy linda, tiene un hermoso jardín con árboles y con una pequeña piscina que invitan a relajarse en la acalorada ciudad de Iquitos. Nos quedamos en el cuarto doble y privado, muy cómodos, y súper limpio todo! Ellos son muy agradable y simpáticos. La ubicación de la casa es muy buena, a 15' caminando de la plaza de armas (9 cuadras). Se puede usar la cocina y el resto de las áreas comunes, todo está impecable. Sin dudas es una muy buena opción de alojamiento en Iquitos!!!

Awesome place, amazing hosts, central location.... Definitely recommended to anyone.

Clean, fairly quiet, great value for money. Linda and Julio were wonderful friendly hosts. 15-20 minute walk to the centre and less than a 10 minute walk to a cute modern wifi friendly cafe with good coffee. Wifi isn't the best but we found most of Iquitos didn't have very good wifi. Definitely recommend staying here!

Stayed here the first night in Iquitos before leaving for the jungle and had booked a second stay upon our return. Great hosts with a sweet little Amazon of their own in the back. Worth the stay, good value.

The house is very close to the centre and the malecon, perfect to stay in iquitos. Beatifull view from the terrass. Nice host. People from Iquitos are very friendly.

The host canceled this reservation 85 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

We had a good stay. The air-condition worked well and the location was excellent. It was close to the malecón and there was a terrace on the roof with a good view of the river.

Probabbly the best deal you can get in Iquitos, amazing room, giant kitchen. AC, a fridge that dispense water, view on the river plus i had the whole place to myself and the price is very low for what you get. Eloisa and Angus were great host I highly recommend

Staying with Angus and Eloisa was a really nice experience. The place is close to the city center, the apartment is big and we had a really comfortable stay. I would absolutely recommend this!

Nuestra experiencia en el hospedaje no fue la mejor. Nos tocaron noches de much ruido en un principio y cuando llegamos la habitación no estaba lista. Por otra parte La Cocina estaba sucia constantemente. La persona que nos recibió era buena gente pero nunca conocimos a Angus.

No tuve la oportunidad de conocer a Angus, sin embargo Giancarlo me pareció un anfitrión muy atento y amigable. El único inconveniente que tuve fue que no estaba muy limpio ni el baño ni la habitación, pero por lo demás, todo bien.

Angus was a great host and the apartment was perfect for our stay, the room was comfortable and clean and the air conditioning worked well. The kitchen had all the basic tools needed and Angus was still adding to it. Angus always answered us quickly and even had some extra pillows brought over quickly when we requested them. We really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this property to anyone that is looking for a clean, comfortable and safe place to stay while visiting Iquitos.

Awesome room and hosting! The apartment has an excellent view to the river and floating houses , was super clean .... you could smell it on the towels and the sheets . Jim is a very special host, kind by nature, willing to help and make it easy. I will never forget how he tried to help a a friend of mine (was not his customer) that was mugged and his passport was stolen . Jim among his business duties called the embassy , he even visited my friend to his hotel . That kind of unselfish caring is something I admire and want to share with you. Jim, thank you one more time for making me feel safe and welcome to your place.

My first time staying in an Airbnb and I was not disappointed. Great view and an awesome host. Jim made me feel at home the second I walked through the door. Jim helped me with sightseeing and was always there to help if needed. I am very happy with my stay and hope to return one day.

Perfect Place... Perfect Host... Inspiring... Will definitely stay again. If you are lucky enough to stay in one of Jim's spots here, don't forget to check out the owl that lives on property.

Right on the main waterfront, it has the best views in town. Jim was very friendly and helpful. I wouldn't consider going anywhere else if returning to Iquitos. Highly recommended.

Jim's apartment is the absolute best in Iquitos! The view of the Itaya River is beautiful--a true paradise. Its location at the end of the boulevard is in perfect proximity to some of Iquitos's best restaurants. He was able to accommodate all of our "special" requests, and his hospitality is unmatched. We highly recommend his place without reservation!

Jim's place is absolutely fantastic! The rooms are impeccably clean, with modern ammenities and stunning views. In our two week trip through the Amazon we stayed at Jim's on three different occasions as a base between jungle adventures. We experienced three different types of rooms and all of them were fabulous! Great location, great value for money, but most importantly great service from our lovely host who always went out of his way to make sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay! We wouldn't stay anywhere else if we were to rerun to Iquitos as this wonderful apartment was peaceful, safe and like our home away from home :)

This was my second stay at Boulevard 251 Apartments in Iquitos. I've been visiting Iquitos for nine years and have stayed in a number of different hotels. I must say that these apartments are the best value and quality hands down. The place is clean, quite, peaceful. The location is great and the views are fabulous. Everything is within walking distance including many wonderful and safe restaurants and a pretty good grocery store. Jim is an excellent host. I'm making this my home away from home.

Great spot! Jim has taken a wonderful old house that sits on the malecon looking over the Iquitos Amazon flood banks and converted it into a small collection of apartments. The space itself is comfortable and practical. The private balcony is ideal for a quiet drink watching life on the water and the floating village that is directly below. I found the wifi a bit slow, which may simply be the norm for internet service in the area, but was most likely a sign from a higher power letting me know that I should not be working but rather enjoying the jungle paradise.

The only problem with staying with Laidy is that I didn't get enough time to spend there! LAidy was really friendly and helpful, Her place was amazingly spotless! The location is very central but quiet even though it is near a busy road. I really recommend staying with Liz and Laidy for a real Peruvian stay experience.

Apartment is simple, clean, and includes all the necessities for a short stay in Iquitos. The true gem of this listing is Laidy. She shared her wisdom with us and was so kind to make us coffees and offer a quick real fast before our tour. A wonderful human! El apartamento es sencillo, limpio, y incluye todo lo necesario para un viaje breve a Iquitos. La joya de esta opción en Airbnb es Laidy. Ella compartió su sabiduría y era tan amable a arreglarnos un cafécito y desayunito rápido antes de nuestro excursión a la selva. ¡Una ser humana maravillosa!

So close to the city center—everything you need is within several hundred meters away. The host Laidy was so kind. You can have almost a sole access to the bathroom is a plus indeed.

Wir haben die nacht sehr genossen bevor wir in den Jungel sind. Das Zimmer ist zentral gelegen am placa del Armas.

Everything was as advertised. Clean room in a good location. We were not around to spend much time with Liz, but she seemed very kind. We enjoyed our stay in Iquitos.

The place is clean, safe, and pretty well located ( a half block from the main square). The side-downs are that have mechanic ventilation, the wifi is standard and if you are not careful with your waste you will have ants right away, but all of these is just standard Iquitos. So overall, the cost-benefits are way high. I strongly you the place if you want to avoid overprice and could enjoy a basic accommodation.

Liz y Laidy's place was a simple, clean room next to Plaza de armas. They had a fan to help get through the hot humid night. That was all we needed.

This was my first time visiting Iquitos and Angela's apartment was very convenient and comfortable for me + 3 of my friends visiting for our 1 night stay. Angela was extremely helpful with check-in and even laundered one of my friend's clothes after a bottle of wine broke open in his luggage. The AC throughout the apartment (in all rooms) was a huge plus. I'd suggest you bring earplugs as Iquitos is very noisy with mototaxis and motorcycles. I'd stay here again for sure.

I rented this for my sister and brother. They couldn't say enough about Angela and her hospitality. Great location & very clean apartment

Very clean and well located flat in Iquitos. It is possible to walk for only 10 min to Plaza de las Armas where several restaurants and bars are. The flat has everything that guests need. Angela is extremely nice and prone to help and made our time in Iquitos nicer and easier. Muchas gracias Ángela!!!

Bien ubicado y muy comodo. Anfitriona muy amable y dispuesta. Muy recomendable.

El departamento de Ángela es muy cómodo y adecuado para viajar a Iquitos por trabajo. Está ubicado en una zona céntrica y accesible.

Angela es una persona muy cálida y siempre dispuesta a colaborar en todo lo que necesitamos desde el primer momento y hasta el último... el departamento es muy cómodo, amplio y cerca de todos los comercios y puntos de interés en Iquitos ... GRACIAS por todo Angela un placer conocerte y haber pasado por tu casa!!

Great hostess. Helped me get set up with finding an ATM, booking tourist activities and renting a scooters. Scooters are negotiable, we ended up paying about 100 soles a day. Good location in the center of the city. Only drawback was the ants in the bathroom (bedrooms were spotless), and the lack of wifi. HUGE plus is that there is air conditioning! Many places in Iquitos don't have AC. Clean lodging, great price. I would stay again.

Lo bueno se repite. Tuve una muy buena experiencia en este departamento y una excelente anfitriona.

Alan estuvo en todo momento en comunicación con nosotros, es una persona muy amable y el lugar es muy bueno. La habitación estuvo limpia cada mañana y está a solo un par de minutos en moto-car de la Plaza de Armas. La ducha es muy agradable, la habitación tiene aire acondicionado y tuvo la amabilidad de llevarnos al aeropuerto al terminal nuestra estadía. Muy recomendado! Gracias por todo, Alan!

Allan est venu me chercher super tôt le matin au port d'iquitos ou j'arrivais par bateau hamac. Il m'a aidé pour plusieurs choses car j'étais pas au top... je l'en remercie infiniment! Tout est proche en marchant. La chambre est propre et confortable! Le restaurant juste en dessous fair de super repas!

I wish we could take this room, the amenities and Alan's warmth to each city on our trip. Roomy, good location, wifi, and a great, waterfall, hot shower. Great restaurant specializing in seafood next door and walking distance or short ride to Plaza deAlmas

Excellent accommodation, clean room, great bathroom with hot water. Overall the stay was excellent and would recommend.

Alan is a awesome guye! He picked us up at the aiport, showes us good restaurants. He is verry friedly. Perfect stay!

El hospedaje es muy bonito, muy limpio, bien ubicado, un poquito alejado del centro, pero si te gusta caminar... está lindo! Alan y su esposa fueron muy amables, preocupados por nosotros para que nos sintamos cómodos. La mejor elección que tuvimos. Recomendado 100%.

Alan was a great host. We arrived at his hostel after four says in the jungle and it was a welcome respite. He stopped is off at the airport the morning of our flight and was a great communicator.

Alan was great! My flight arrived earlier than planned and he was there ready to pick me up at the airport, even though it was very late at night. I was supposed to be traveling with my friend who is fluent in Spanish (I am not) and her flight was cancelled, so I showed up alone and unable to communicate well. Alan made me feel very safe and gave me a quick tour around the city and offered to stop to get some food before arriving at the airbnb. There was filtered water, a flatscreen tv, very effective air conditioning and a hot water shower. The bed was the most comfortable bed I've slept on in Peru. All in all, a great experience!

Karina and her family went above and beyond the make my stay comfortable. They were happy to change dates, and were warm and welcoming. The room was very clean and the location was quiet yet accessible to the main plaza.

me encantò estar acà. el sitio perfecto para empezar mi aventura en iquitos. me senti como a casa entre las charlas y el carino de la gente. muy buen sitio, y lejos del ruido de la ciudad...hermoso. encantado de haberles conocidos!muy profesionales y disponibles

I had such a nice and relaxing time staying at Karina's place, it's a little far away from the city center as you have to take a tuktuk for 10 mins (2-3soles), but it was really calm and nice, there was a convenience store with the basics just downstairs, and pharmacy and other necesseties not far away. Carlos was so nice and took me on a small sightseeing tour on his motorbike to show me the city, and they helped me go to the pharmacy and were so lovely and caring when I got a stomach flu. I would highly recommend to stay here, my single room was really neat and clean, super nice bathroom, everything was nice and sweet!

Karina and her family made every effort to help me out. They were happy to adjust dates when my plans changed, and helped me with transport, advice, and even a haircut! The room was very clean and in a quiet location, but it was also easy to get to the main square by mototaxi. Highly recommend!

Fue una experiencia buena

I loved the location, outside the centre but walkable distance or a heap tuk tuk ride away. The family is great and really knows the area. I would stay there again!

Karina's place is in a good quiet location, room was spacious and clean with a private bathroom. They have breakfast included. I would definitely stay at Karina's place again!

It is good.

Casa Italia is a wonderful place outside of the high traffic areas of Iquitos. The host Davide and his Peruvian  girlfriend Gracie (whose smile lights up the room), are a tremendous help and go out of their way to make your stay as comfortable as possible. For example Davide spent a couple of hours my first day in Iquitos giving me a tour of the city and some of its highlights, and took the time to explain some of the ins and outs of the city. On my first night David cooked me a nice pasta dish and throughout my stay offered me Italian Expresso. I had a one-bedroom apartment on the third floor with kitchen and large living room. It has a modern refrigerator and nice microwave. In addition, there is a  larger kitchen on the main floor serving the host and some of the guests which  is also available for more community-based cooking and eating, providing a good opportunity to  get to better know the hosts and guests.  The views of my apartment were spectacular. The bedroom and the living room/kitchen have wall to wall six foot  high windows, supporting a panoramic view of the rainforest and tributaries of the Amazon, as well as soaring eagles and hawks.  For the price, I paid $25 a night, you get a lot more than most facilities in the area that I have seen or reviewed. I had a relatively large apartment to myself with private bathroom,  great views and kitchen, as well as a lot of time and attention  to help me out and make my stay as pleasant as possible provided by David and his girlfriend. The construction of the facility of concrete walls does significantly dampen any noise between adjacent units. And in the rare instance where some guests get a little rambunctious, David is great  in managing any extraneous noise from guests. And Casa Italia is off the main roads, being on a road that dead ends at the river about a quarter mile away. This is of great benefit because it does not have the loud Motor Taxi traffic that is prevalent in most of Iquitos (though Motor Taxis are easy to summon within a block of the facility).  Iquitos has the reputation of being a relatively noisy city and Davide has taken many steps to try to eliminate and reduce any extraneous noise from the neighbors and surrounding areas. From what I've been able to see of other places to stay in Iquitos, I think at Casa Italia is probably one of, if not the, quietest  places in Iquitos.  The unit has a very modern air conditioning unit with remote as well as fans. In the winter the fans were more than sufficient for keeping me cool, however it was nice to turn on the air conditioning for 15 or 20 minutes once in awhile.  Tap water in Iquitos is generally not recommended for drinking. David provided a 5-gallon jug of purified water with dispenser right in...

My experience at David was wonderful. Davide was extremely kind,friendly and respectful. His apartment s very confrotable, quite and safe with all the comforts. He arranged for our transport from the airport to the apartment. He was willing all the time(i mean 24/7) to go around with us... and He has shown us the best places in iquitos and in the wild jungle and we tasted the best local food and drinks .... I will defenetly come back at davide very soon and I will do it with my best friends too.... Amazing trip...thanks mate

Davides house is really nice. It's clean, the rooms are well furnitured and you have everything you need to spend some nice days! There is a shared kitchen, were you can meet Davide, his girlfriend, friends of him or other guests ... it's a quite place with a kind garden. The neighbors are friendly. There are some small shops close to the house to buy the most important things. Davide, his girlfriend and a friend of him treated me really nice! When I arrived to Iquitos they picked me up from the airport. The first two days I was ill and they really took care about me ... being sick on a journey is really hard, but all of them helped me to get better fast! Afterwards we spend more time together, doing trips, having coffee and eating together. I really enjoyed my time in Iquitos. The house is a bit far away from a super market, the plaza de armas and the mercado, but you can easily reach it with mototaxi in 10-15 minutes. One thing about Iquitos: I've done a tour to the community Bora Bora, the butterfly farm and the monkeys island ... the last one I really loved and can recommend it, the butterfly farm is nice if you are interested in butterflies, but honestly I aspected to see more and the community Bora Bora isn't worth to go ... you are not able to see the real life ... it's just a small dance (walking around in the tend) and singing for 20 Soles each person. All in all, Iquitos is worth to go, Davide and his house give you the option to spend some really nice days over there!

Could not have possibly had a better host in Iquitos. Everything was absolutely terrible perfect. Stay here if you get a chance! Thanks Davide!!

Davide's place is a real gem. The room was actually an apartment with a living room, separate bedroom, private bath, and small cooking area. Furthermore, the views and sounds from the room of the egrets and eagles were a spectacular way to wake up. Davide and his wife were a pleasure to talk and eat with and were a great resource for where to find the best stuff in Iquitos. Town center is only 6 minutes away by motortaxi (3 soles). Couldn't have been happier and would definitely stay here again.

Really the very best part about this place is the hosts, Davide and Greysi. They are just lovely people! Davide does everything he possibly can, and more, to help you out in any way and to make your stay a good one and treats you as a good friend. He arranges visits to places of interest around and outside town, goes with you often, gives you lots of tips and generally is always offering his help, with a good dose of Italian friendliness. He has lived in Iquitos for 9 years and knows his way around! I arrived with a broken ankle in a cast and needed a lot of help and Davide was incredible! I stayed in the smaller apartment, which is great value for the price in Iquitos. It has a couple of rooms and you have all you need to be self-sufficient, cook, etc. There is also a nice view across to the river and the rainforest beyond. There are great views from the rooftop. The neighbourhood is quiet for Iquitos, with lots of people selling food in front of their houses and small stores and restaurants. You can get just about anywhere within the city, including the Malecon and Belen market, within 10 minutes by motorbike taxi for little cost, and Davide will sometimes give you a ride himself. To illustrate how it can be staying at Davide[s house, he has a bit of a reputation for helping sick and injured guests... I spent one day when he had called up his friends, a physiotherapist and psychologist who knows a lot about jungle plant remedies, and they helped me out so much, even removed my cast, working with spontaneously-sourced tools for several hours, joking along the way, all accompanied to guitar and singing by a Dutch musician guest and some neighbours (and occasional drumming on the cast!). it was a total community collaboration! Another guest arrived with some stomach issues and some leaves were promptly collected from the garden and brewed into a tea with some careful instructions! Another one treated a skin issue on my foot and it was like having luxury spa treatment!The friends returned regularly to help me out all they can, and we had some great conversations too. Davide is very good at calling up his friends to help you out in addition to all the help that he himself provides. It's a personal, friendly, fun experience in a residential part of Iquitos in a comfortable apartment. Very recommended!

Nice and spacious apartment with a beautiful jungle view. Located in the outskirts of Iquitos, quiet neighbouthoood. Davide picked me up from the airport and showed me around the first days. He is an excellent host and makes a great Italian espresso. Highly recommended!

A very great experience on airbnd (URL HIDDEN) host are a very hospitable couple including a very handsome,warm Italian man and his girlfriend,a beautiful,industrious peruvian girl.they treated us very kindly,not only cooked the delicious pasta for us,but also helped us to book the flight on the Internet at mid-night anda !they are both lovely and trustful. I recommand strongly for tourists to choose them as your temporary home on your way of travelling the Amazon area!

The jungle tour was one of the most amazing experiences of our trip. One thing to note: the location of this airbnb is their office. From their office they will assign you a tour guide and have you pick activities you would like to do in the jungle (these activities are not included. But well worth it!! We paid $200 Canadian each for all the activities during our tour). Your tour guide will then bring you from the office, to the marina and to the jungle lodge which is a 45 minute boat ride. This lodge is SO cool!! Kevin, our tour guide, made this trip an unforgettable experience for us. He made sure we were comfortable, safe and always having a blast. I would 100% recommend Kevin as a tour guide for your journey!!!

Really good location. Very large room. Overall excellent.

Fantastic communication throughout absolute breeze to book and a fantastic room snack in the heart of everything thanks again recommend 100%

Accommodations were fine. There was a mix up when we checked in and they front desk guy said we didn't have a reservation and asked us to pay again. We called Giancarlo and he fixed everything. The location is close to the water and some parks which was nice. The room was really big and clean and had an air conditioner (thank goodness)! Only downside is that the wifi was spotty and came and went. Giancarlo offered us a ride from the airport for super cheap ($6 US) and we declined. Our cab driver way over charged us from the airport ($20 USD) - so I wish I would I have taken Giancarlo's offer.

Preis-Leistung ist top. Die Unterkunft ist wie eine Suite in einem Hotel. 24h portier, tägliche Reinigung. Und direkt im Zentrum ;)

Very accommodating!! We stayed our first night in Iquitos here and were very close to everything- walking distance to grocery, restaurant, square, and views of the amazon river. We simply showed our motor taxi at the airport the name of hotel, he knew immediately and took us there for 20 soles. Air conditioning worked great which was awesome, wifi isn't too great but we haven't found anywhere in Iquitos that has fast wifi, so far- it gets the job done though! Every thing was clean and bed was nice and big to stretch out on. We were delightfully surprised by breakfast in the morning, as we did not know that was included. We do not drink coffee but used the filter water to fill up our water bottle which saved us a couple bucks! Very noisy as you are right in town by everything. I am glad we decided to stay our first night here! Thanks again.

It was a very spacious room. The staff were very helpful.

Great value. Friendly staff. Very nice location.

Super value! Large and comfortable rooms. Internet was a problem, but the whole of Iquitos have issues with that.

Wonderful place! You have your own home, you feel free, independent and at the same time safe living next to Pamela's family. I liked to have time for myself surrounded by nature and away from the"city" :) Pamela and her parents are very nice and helpful for anything you would need. And the chiquitita is so lovely! Cat and dog together, amazing :) Me gusta mucho esa casa. Hay todo que necesites. Simplemente bonita. Cómo así que yo lo diría! Muchas gracias para todo.

Pamela and her parents are just awesome hosts!!!! Pamela always replied directly and helped with any needs also with booking a good tour on the Amazons river!! Her family is so warm and welcoming and made everything to make us feel comfortable. The place itself is just a little paradise away from the noise and dust of iquitos. Stroll along the village and you will experience he real local life without an overplus of tourists and everybody is so friendly here. Just more than highly recommended, would give 10 stars plus if possible!!! Thank you so much for sharing your place with us!!

The cabin is beautifully decorated and includes very fine features and comforts. The main bed was very, very comfortable and of high quality. It felt a bit luxurious at times. The lounge space and living area provided for great relaxing and the interior hamaca is perfect for using during a passing shower. The space is extremely clean and ready for any visitor. The wifi was very fast (faster than normal) and along with a full bookcase of books (some Spanish and some English), it is easy to feel at home. My stay was too short and I did not utilize all the features to their potential, like the kitchen and close access to nature. I enjoyed walking around the local streets and exploring on my own, but it is clear that Paco, Pamela and their parents would offer a wealth of answers and information. I enjoyed Thor and their cat and meeting the other pets on the property. I used their suggested Motokar to and from Iquitos, it made the process easier and more efficient. While many small tiendas or bodegas are nearby, I would recommend bringing small currency and a few ingredients/food to be self-sufficient as well. Thank you!

Pamela was beyond helpful. She provided endless information and is extremely knowledgable on Iquitos and how best to spend your time there. I felt very cozy and at peace in their guest house. Beautiful sounds from la selva at night. It's just far enough outside of Iquitos to escape the noise. I enjoyed the bumpy mototaxi ride each day from the small village of Santo Tomas. Pamela, her family and their dog were all very loving and helpful. I wouldn't hesitate to stay again. Thanks again Pamela! Much Love Side note to potential guests: do realize that there is no access to a kitchen. However Pamela was nice enough to provide hot water and dishes each day, so I was able to make oatmeal. :)

It's a cozy place next to the family's home. Pamela's parents are so welcoming and helpful! They have many pets with interesting stories that Paco will tell you about. Such a great place to take a break from the busy city of Iquitos.

Pamela's place is an awesome escape from the city. While I didn't meet her personally, her parents might be the nicest people on planet earth. They were knowledgeable and friendly! It is a little on the outside of town (30-40) minutes by motocar, so keep that in mind. While it's certainly accesible, once we headed into town we stayed there all day. The room is clean, airy and private. Definitely nice to relax at for an afternoon. The area is quiet, and doesn't have many immediate (walkable) attractions. Overall we were totally satisfied and really enjoyed our stay!

This is a wonderful real rural village experience that is a nice break from the city of Iquitos. Pamela and her family went out of her way to accommodate any request, including bringing us some amazing fresh picked fruits! Her driver is very reliable and even took me to tourist destinations one day! Pamela also arranged her friends to take me on a boat tour of the lower Amazon river! I felt like family and felt very safe while traveling alone! Sleep to the sounds of mangos falling, parrots talking and chickens!

This was such a wonderful place to stay. Off the beaten path, you get to stay in a real part of Iquitos. Pamela's space is fun and spacious and her and her parents are gracious hosts who helped me with all that I needed. Come here if you want to experience a jungle getaway.

Excelente hospedaje, limpio bien ubicado y muy cómodo, con todo lo necesario para una buena estancia. José una gran persona nos ayudó en todo lo que necesitábamos, siempre muy preocupado y con una disposición increíble. Gracias por todo Jose!!!!! Muy buen anfitrión, lo recomiendo 100% si volvemos a Iquitos no dudaremos en quedarnos nuevamente aquí.

Jose es una persona muy atenta y está pendiente de tu llegada así como de conseguirte transporte y guías en la zona. Muy recomendable, él alojamientos muy limpio y ordenado.

Buena ubicación, muy buena distribución interior y limpieza.

Super! Ca n'est pas mon premier séjour ici et ça ne sera pas le dernier non plus... J'ai déjà tout dit sur un autre post.

Mucha tranquilidad, comodidad, y siempre muy servicial el anfitrion (Jose). Definitivamente me siento genial cuando voy a iquitos y me quedo en su departamento. Gracias por todo

As always a great place to stay.

Los anfitriones son muy amables, encontré todo lo que necesitaba. Los espacios son amplios y quedan cerca restaurantes y pequeños comercios.

Recomdndable y funcional departamento

The place has a great location, but the photos are deceiving. The apartment is very run down, dirty, no AC, only one fan out of three was working. There are other places in the same area that are much cleaner and have AC that are the same price.

Cómodos apartamentos con zona de descanso y cocina. Colchón cómodo. La señora que nos recibió fue muy agradable y comprensiva. Nos dejó mantener las maletas en la habitación por un día hasta nuestra vuelta de la selva. Podría mejorarse la limpieza y el mantenimiento. Ubicación perfecta, muy cerca de plaza de armas pero zona más tranquila y silenciosa. Alejada del ruido de los mototaxis. Techos altos que hacen que se mantenga buena temperatura y no haga demasiado calor.

Carmen es muy hamable y ella ayudase con todo se necesita. Los habitaciones son muy buenos. Tienen un baño privado con doucha muy buena, agua caliente. Tambien tienen una cosina con refrigador y todo que necesita para cosinar. La casa esta en un bueno lugar muy cerca de la plaza de armas, restaurantes, supermercado. Recomendamos esta casa mucho quando quiere conocer Iquitos en un lugar tranquilo pero cerca de todo.

Good place to use

Alojamiento debe actualizar las fotos

Lugar muy cerca a la plaza, la señora que nos recibió muy amable y atenta. El apartamento amplio y limpio. Tiene aire acondicionado y ventiladores de techo. Todo excelente

Few blocks from the Plaza de armas, so right in the thick of where you want to be. WiFi was good, water was warm, AC kept us cool. We'll recommend for the price!

This hotel was well run by very kind people. A little off the beaten path, but close to the airport it was a great place to rest our heads after three days in the jungle.

This property is just outside the city center, which makes it a bit quieter than the hotel near the central. The staff is very nice and laid back, the breakfasts were good, and we enjoyed the large, clean pool. This property does not seem to get very busy, which is great! Although the rooms are bit dated, they are clean and comfortable and the AC is COLD (AWSOME!). Considering the cost and location, this is a great choice for travelers who do not need to be in hustle and bustle of the City Center.

Great service, great people!

The photos in fairness are a little misleading tbh so don't expect anything amazing like 5 Star(search on (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) you'll find some photos). When we pulled up the driveway entrance looked so shabby we thought it had closed down tbh. But once you walk up the path and into the reception its all change. With the exception of the pool. The complex and rooms, well one we stayed in, was clean and more than comfortable. We were amazed how there weren't more guests there tbh. It's a little dated tbh but for $40 a night for a twin it's perfectly reasonable. Also as the rooms are off the road it's way better than the city and its noisy transport issues. If you stay in the city realise that road noise is a horror from about 5am. Motor tricycle engines and beeping. The pool was a little rough tbh. If the pumps were working and the water was being filtered then maybe it would be okay. From the managers point of view I can get it. With hardly any guests it may not be cost effective to be maintaining it to a high standard. But of course has an impact on your opinion like ours. The staff were all helpful (well the young guy at reception was and he's all we dealt with) as best they could be. We got a transfer to the airport at 3.30am which was complementary. And I gather collections are dealt with in the same way. I would return here again if I visit Iquitos but much to my horror it's a place that was way off what I imagined it would be (Iquitos city). It's for the most part a pretty crappy city but of course it's the doorway to the jungle which is stunning. FYI from the hotel to the city, which is about 15mins, it will cost you 4 soles on one of these noisy motor tricycle things. Communication was very good.

Excellent place

awesome location, great place I highly recommend it the staff was always ready to assist out needs thank you guys!!!!

Gennifer was the most welcoming host! She even sent someone to pick us up at the airport upon arrival. We were greeted with welcome drinks which was such a treat. The property was exactly as described. Great AC, very private and quiet. Close to the airport. Nice hot showers. Very relaxing :)

Muy bien el lugar y el anfitrion, muy atento.

Fantastic budget accommodation run by a lovely older lady who made me feel very welcome. Room was as described. Is a bit of a walk (or short motor taxi ride) to the main plaza, but the area itself is fairly quiet and there are some cheaper local restaurants nearby.

The host canceled this reservation 4 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

El acceso desde la ciudad de iquitos es solo a traves de motokar. Se le puede solicitar el servicio contactando a la Sra. Roxana para que los puedan recoger desde la ciudad. Si desean alquilar una moto en Iquitos tambien lo pueden hacer. Para que puedan llegar mas fácilmente puede preguntar por la Maloka de Bruno o la casa de la familia Celis al momento de llegar a Nina Rumi. Las vistas del rio son preciosas y tambien pueden nadar en una cocha, las aguas son tan tranquilas como la de una laguna. Me divertí mucho aqui. Saludos!

If you want to relax in a quiet spot with a lovely family nearby you need to check out this spot and get out of Iquitos! Bruno's bungalow has two floors, a kitchen, hammocks and a private bed and bathroom, all next to a lagoon that you can swim in and with a gorgeous garden. The family next door is so sweet and Roxana stopped by often to say hello and offer random treats. Lovely!

Great place to relax! Lovely welcome by Roxana and Delta, we enjoyed Nina Rumi with the whole family!

Es un paradiso. Me gusta mucho! Muchas gracias y hasta la proxima. Roxana y su dos niñas son mui sympatico. El residencia es authentico y perfatto para relajar.

El lugar es increíble, de una tranquilidad perfecta para disfrutar de la naturaleza, lejos de la animación de la ciudad de Iquitos. El pueblo de Nina Rumi es super seguro, bien pequeñito et autentico. A 10 metros del río, hemos disfrutado bastante del paddle para observar los aves. Pero mas que todo, la maloca (casa típica de la selva) es enorme, super bien pensada, al medio de un jardin super lindo. Recomendamos este lugar para 3 o 4 dias minimo !!!
