Occupying a 25-acre area of privately-owned rainforest, the secluded Awasi Lodge is just a 20-minute drive from the entrance to Iguazu National Park. Stone pathways weave around vine-clad trees connecting 14 individual villas. Inside, they are light and airy, decorated with white-washed woods and soothing tones, featuring a spacious bedroom, large living room and coffee corner. Floor-to-ceiling windows open out onto a private deck and plunge pool, where myriad colourful birds and butterflies flit overhead.
Menus are fresh and seasonal, using produce from the kitchen garden as well as fine cuts of meat, local river fish and tasty vegetarian dishes - the empanadas are particularly moreish. Relax after dinner with a nightcap from the well-stocked bar.
