Overview

I stayed in this lodge for 4 nights. I was travelling on my own, but had the help of a fantastic guide called Sole from Latin America for all. She wheeled me about in a wheelchair supplied by the company as the distance from the reception/dining area was too far for me to walk. My cabin with wet room was lovely and I went to sleep to the sound of frogs. A number of activities were included so I went on a trek through the rain forest pulled and pushed on an off-road wheelchair. I also went rafting on the Jatun Yatin river thanks to the team from Torrent Duck and visited a Kichwa community and the Kalleri cocoa community. The holiday was booked through Disabled Access Holidays and was the best holiday ever, I did things I would never have thought possible. From the Amazon I went to the Galapagos.

Transport & Parking

I’ve given a low rating for transport because I flew from Heathrow Terminal 5 and the special assistance was so poor that I missed my first flight. On the way back they abandoned me at baggage collection so I had to walk out with my luggage and rollator on a trolley .

Access

The paths round Husquila are steep and some of the turns are very tight. No lift (all 1 level). Signage was fairly basic but ok. No induction loop or alternative formats.

Toilets

All toilets were accessible, no alarm cords.

Staff

Fabulous, couldn’t have been more friendly or helpful.

Anything else you wish to tell us?
