Field notes
20-minute drive from Cataratas del Iguazú International Airport (IGR) in Argentina directly to the national park gates.
The resort is located inside the national park. Hotel shuttles meet guests at the airport. Private taxis can enter the park to drop off guests directly at the lobby.
Pre-Book Gran Aventura Boat Tour
The Gran Aventura boat tour departs from the trails near the hotel, driving directly into the spray of the Three Musketeers falls. Pre-book your slot with the concierge for 8:30 AM to ride the first boat of the day.
Trail Crowds & Standard Room Views
Standard rooms face the garden/jungle rather than the waterfalls. You must explicitly book a 'Falls View' room to see the cascades. Thousands of day visitors walk the paths directly below the resort balcony.
