Irupe Lodge is one of the hidden wonders of Argentina. Unfortunately it is not easy to get to: four hours from Posadas or two hours from Mercedes but once you are there, you have arrived to paradise. The hotel is small situated at the edge of the esteros. The meals are exceptional. At breakfast we were offered eggs (a first... More

After a horrendous journey to get there over miles and miles of bad roads, it was a total joy to arrive at simply put, a beautiful place. The excursions that were arranged by the staff were amazing, the wildlife was unique and plentiful. The pool was a welcome addition at the end of the day. The meals were excellent as... More

Irupe is a wonderful place to see wildlife up-close and felt like a perfect escape. It is beautifully situated with great views of the laguna from the dining room and bedrooms. The staff are extremely attentive and helpful - and so was Regi, the Swiss owner, with the planning of my excursions (which are organised by the lodge) and onward... More

I loved Irupe Lodge! To get there, it requires about a two hour drive on dirt roads from Mercedes, or a four hour drive from Posadas. It is totally worth the drive. The lodge is situated right on the lake near the village of Colonia Carlos Pellegrini. I chose the four night, three day package which included two day boat... More

This Lodge is in a small village 2.5 hours drive from Posadas airport over a dirt road. Irupe has its own travel company which organised our stay in conjunction with a three-day visit to Iguazu Falls staying at the Panoramic Hotel. All arrangements, transfers etc went smoothly. The Lodge foyer and dining/sitting room is very comfortable with a lovely atmosphere.... More

We came to Irupé Lodge on a mother-daughter-trip and spent three nights there. The Lodge is placed in a beautiful setting, right at the edge of one of the lagunas. The views are truly spectacular and we saw a lot of animals and birds that we have never seen before in our lives. The transfers and all the excursions were... More

We found the Lodge Irupe on-line and made reservations directly, with e-mails flying back and forth as the means of paying the deposit was sorted our. We drove from Iguazu, stopped for lunch in Posadas, and missed the turn down to the village of Carlos Pelligrini because the road is unmarked. After stopping at a police post we retraced our... More

The Ibera wetlands are a spectacular place for seeing wildlife and a must if you really like your birds and animals. The sheer quantity of sightings (up close as well) is amazing. You end up seeing a lot of caiman and capybara though so venture further afield to see some extra things. Irupe lodge is an ideal place to base... More

Finding Irupe lodge on our travels from Buenos Aires to Iguazu falls was a real blessing. We spent new years eve and two more nights there enjoying the very comfortable accommodation, true hospitality, great food and the delights of Laguna Ibera and meeting some local farmers. Regi then went out of her way and helped arrange the rest of our... More
