Set amongst Jackalberry trees and Phoenix palms, the exclusive Sussi & Chuma offers panoramic views of the islanded-dotted river. The soothing sounds of the gently rushing river add to the relaxing ambience of this luxurious lodge, and the sumptuous accommodation and personalized attentive service assure a memorable and superbly comfortable stay.
