Blancaneaux
Lodge offers modern comforts in an entirely self-sustained jungle
sanctuary. The Privassion River courses through the Lodge's grounds.
Above the river, a kaleidoscope of forest birdlife plays against
the palmettos where you will enjoy the jungle sounds from your private
deck. All of the electricity used at the Lodge is generated by a
hydroelectric plant that harnesses the power of the river.
The Lodge's accommodations mirror the rainforest's vibrant hues.
Each bungalow features a soaring hand-woven thatched roof, artisan-crafted
and antique colonial furnishings and a luxurious Japanese bath with
views of the jungle sky. Adventures abound in the surrounding 300-square-mile
Mountain Pine Ridge Reserve.
Food
is prepared from fruits and vegetables grown in the lodge's own
Organic Garden. The Lodge is a guest in this fertile natural forest.
To complement this, the chef has established a three-acre, self-sustaining
organic garden that produces all of the fruits and vegetables used
to make traditional Coppola family recipes. You can unwind in the
Jaguar Bar. Dine on Coppola family recipes in the restaurant where
daily specials are offered from the Lodge's own garden. Dine on
fresh seafood, smoked meats and authentic Neapolitan pizzas cooked
in a wood-burning Italian oven.
Take
a dip in nearby Pools and Waterfalls. The hidden Big Rock Falls
are a short trip away by car, horse or mountainbike. Hike down to
the misty base of the falls, and swim in the warm pools. Or take
a trip to the Rio On Pools, where small waterfalls spill between
pools carved by the river out of the mountain granite. Some of the
pools are connected by natural waterslides.
Its
thirteen thatched cabañas and villas are idyllically set
on a steep forested hillock that runs down to Privassion Creek,
a narrow river broken by cascades and granite pools and linked by
small wooden bridges.
Blancaneaux
Lodge consists of seven cabañas on stilts that are either
in the garden below the main building or overlooking Privassion
Creek. All have thatched roofs and hardwood furniture and are equipped
with private bathroom, mosquito meshing and viewing deck. The Honeymoon
Cabaña has its own small private terrace and garden that
looks over the river below.
The
six villas that lie beside the riverbank are majestic. Each has
two spacious bedrooms, separated by a tiled kitchen and open-plan
living area with a hammock that looks over the creek. Each bedroom
includes a Japanese-style bathroom and a small screened viewing
area. Rooms are decorated with textiles and artifacts collected
from Mexico and Central America.
