Heidoti is a village in Boven Saramacca municipality (resort) in Sipaliwini District in Suriname. Heidoti is home to Maroons of the Kwinti tribe.

Since 2009, Heidoti is home to the Heidoti Tropical Park. Heidoti can be reached by boat from Nieuw Jacobkondre, which has road access to the rest of the country, or from the Cabana Airstrip.
