AWASI IGUAZU LOCATION
Located within a vast private rainforest reserve, Awasi Iguazu is just a 20-minute drive from the Puerto Iguazu Airport and the Argentinian entrance to the Iguazu National Park. The park is home to the world-renowned Iguazu Falls, which consists of up to 275 cascades within a two-mile wide, horseshoe-shaped curve, and the magnificent La Garganta del Diablo, or “The Devil’s Throat,” where the Iguazu River plunges 240 feet.
In addition to the falls, the park boasts over 2,000 species of plants and a diverse range of wildlife, including howler monkeys, jaguars, and giant anteaters.
