We loved our stay at the Aldea de la Selva. We were looking for a very authentic place to stay on our trip to Iguazu, and the Aldea was just right. We stayed in our own cabin in the rainforest, which comfortably slept 6 people and had a sizeable washroom, plus living room and kitchenette.
The main lodge was beautiful, with great breakfast buffet and full-service restaurant. The pool was also lovely, with a snack and cocktail bar. Front desk staff was super helpful and easily connected us with a driver to take us to the falls, to Brazil, to dinner, airport, etc. Kitchen staff was so kind and patient, and fixed us a packed lunch of empanadas and sandwiches to take along to the falls.
Would absolutely recommend for travellers looking for a TRUE nature experience... but is NOT good for people who won't tolerate the odd lizard or large insects on the pathways on your walk back to your cabin at night... and some occasional indoor crawly visitors :) The windows have screens though, and at night we rolled up a towel to place against the front door which worked perfectly well to keep out mosquitos and such.

A really lovely hotel where you sleep in cabins in the jungle. I really enjoyed being surrounded by the sounds of the jungle as well as the nature. The hotel has a really nice swimming pool, serves a nice breakfast and has a decent restaurant for lunch and dinner. We had a lovely time here.
My only criticism is that the pool was recently painted. This wasn't mentioned anywhere on a sign or verbally. Unfortunately it meant that my legs where covered in blue paint after swimming. I was a little disappointed that the staff didn't think this warranted an apology when showed them this.

Wow really loved this place . 5 stars. This place is for people who want to be away from the crowd and in nature. For anyone reading negative reviews about ants or bugs remember you are in nature and this is to be expected. You truly are surrounded by the jungle! We had a bug or two in our room and that is just part of the experience. Amazing pool with a bar and restaurant, large rooms, great dining hall and outdoor sitting area at the restaurant. Very good food and service. The location is great nestled in the jungle all around you but minutes to the town and the falls.
You park on the short entrance road to the check in and it is not overly wide. Other cars need to get past so I found I was pushed very tight to the bushes to get in an out of the car Mainly because I didnt want anyone hitting the car. Some of the woodwork needs to be replaced along the boardwalk and the door to our patio was very hard to open as it rubbed the floor badly. Just some very minor things that need a little tlc in an otherwise great place

The place is surrounded by nature and decoration is very nice. However, the service and food/drink quality wasn’t good in relation to the amount paid per night, I expected more.

Be careful when you make reservation.Hotel try to cheating with the exchange rate. They indicated an incorrect amount in Argentinian pesos, attracting tourist by the price, but they ask for the payment in foreign currency in different exchange rate . it’s a first bad experience in Argentina and hopefully the last
