The Pousada is next to a beautiful river about two hours into the Pantanal. The food buffet is delicious, the pool offers cooldown during the midday heat and the best part is the tours offered by the guides. We had a great time and would definitely come back.

Good location set next to a river. The boat tour was great - especially for first time tourist. They feed the caiman and hawk. Horseback riding was also nice. Food better than expected. Nice staff and friendly tour guides. Good (but not great) animal sightings - especially in the morning (cardinals, a pair of fox, Mutum, Tuiuius). Lots of caiman. Near the parking area is a great place to watch the sunrise and sunset (bring repellent). Nice area to play snooker and foosball.

The variety of wildlife overall was a bit underwhelming. We saw very little on the night tour (2 foxes). Boat tour is great for first-time visitors, but a lot of other places feed the animals. I think the river is a bit too wide for better sightings.

Lovely location. Comfortable rooms. Good food.

Because I booked with booking.com I had to pay extra for the tours which was disappointing. My advice is to book this pousada directly and then all the tours are included.

It was nice to see different birds on the river (inc hyacinth macaques and toucans) from what we had seen in 2-3 days at Porto Jofre. Also, offering a free boat ride or vehicle safari is a great idea. The boat trip was a bit tame after going out at PJ but enjoyable nonetheless.

Food was ok, but not as good as at the other pousada we stayed in in Porto Jofre. We were kept waiting a long time for our room key, in blazing heat, even though rooms were available.

Excursions from the lodge to view wildlife were good. Staff are friendly, particularly Wende the Manager and Benedict the guide.

The restaurant was not up to lodge standard. It was more like a canteen. The food was ordinary. Attention to detail was poor. For example our superior room patio door would not lock, the bathroom door handle fell off repeatedly. The area immediately surrounding the lodge was a dry desert of over grazing by farm animals, although the lodge gardens were lush and well tended.

I will never return to this place for 3 reasons: 1- Owner lady embarrassed my girlfriend just because she entered the restaurant with her bikini top on. 2- they very few options for dinner. 3- For breakfast, in their few options of meals, the white cake was burned, the carrot cake wasn’t prepared well, the foods in general wasn’t tasty at all. It was complained for the manager and nothing was done about it. I am so disappointed! I expected better from this place.
