It's Something Else!

Welcome

Welcome to Afobaka Resort

Rooted in nature, made for escape.

Nestled in the heart of Brokopondo, just beyond the Afobaka Dam, our resort sits along the calm left bank of the Suriname River, not far from the vast and iconic Prof. Dr. Ir. W.J. van Blommestein Meer.

Whether you arrive by car or as part of a guided experience, what awaits is something different: a peaceful riverside escape where nature surrounds you, comfort grounds you, and time slows down just enough to truly breathe.

At Afobaka Resort, nature is more than a backdrop. It’s the essence of your stay. Here, you’ll wake up to birdsong, stroll shaded trails, and cool off in the clear, refreshing waters of the Suriname River; all while enjoying the comfort, service, and ease of a professionally run resort.

We believe in relaxing, recharging, and reconnecting, whether you’re here for a quiet day trip, a weekend with family, or a team-building retreat with your colleagues. Our spacious grounds, welcoming team, and laid-back energy offer space to do just that.

Professionalism, warm hospitality, and love for the land; that’s what we stand for.

It’s Something Else!
