Guest Reviews
- Sabrina (4/5): DA EVITARE ASSOLUTAMENTE!! - Il personale è molto gentile e disponibile. Anche la cucina va molto bene. Tutto buono e pulito. La camera, prima di tutto.
La prima, ce la siamo fatta cambiare. Il ragazzo alla reception è stato super gentile.
La seconda andava meglio.
Tutte le foto sul sito e su Facebook, credo che siano di molti anni prima, la situazione attuale non è così.
Il prezzo è elevatissimo ed ingiustificato per quello che viene offerto.
- Bruno (10/5): Tout etait parfait ! - Un accueil très chaleureux et bienveillant
- Ana (8/5): -
- Jose (8/5): - Tout etait parfait Les tarifs des chambres et des excursions yn peut surévaluées
- Lukas (9/5): Tolle Location um das Pantanal besser kennenzulernen - Schöne Lage am Fluss im Pantanal. Es werden einige Aktivitäten angeboten wie Bootstouren und Safaris. Das Personal war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit und das Essen war auch gut.
- Nancy (9/5): -
- Luiz Henrique Moraes de (8/5): - Variedade nas refeições poderia ser melhor.
Idem para passeios- muito caros. Já deveriam estar incluídos na diária.
- Juan Carlos (8/5): Buena opción para el principio de la transpantaneria - Pousada situada al principio (50km) de la Transpantaneira. Nuestra habitación era muy amplia, con cuarto de baño renovado. Todo muy limpio. Tanto el desayuno como las comidas, que están incluidas en el precio, eran bastante sabrosas y tipo buffet.
Las camas eran cómodas y la habitación tenía nevera, aire acondicionado y ventilador.
El personal muy amable.
Las actividades estaban en el rango de precio normal Estuvo todo bien
- Nigel (10/5): Great guides for night safari and boat trip - Food was great and facilities very nice Nothing
- Rene (7/5): - Relaxed, near river, in an area with not so much available Price is too steep for a rather normal ranch in not such a hard to reach location
- Mélanie (7/5): - L’emplacement sur le bord du Rio claro, les animaux sur site c’est exceptionnel, l’équipe sympa sur place mais la nourriture n’es pas terrible et la qualité du service en rapport au prix n’est pas bonne c’est l’endroit le plus cher que nous avons fait au Brésil.
- Maria Luisa (1/5): - No me gustó nada Habitaciones sucias, oscura y básica para el precio. Excursiones mediocres con un guía pesimo
- MATTHEW (6/5): Nice place to stay for a night, but better to push on to Porto Jofre - 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.
- Nicolas (9/5): Super séjour - Chambre très confortable, avec une très bonne literie notamment. La piscine est super, il y a des oiseaux partout dans la pousada. La rivière située à côté est merveilleuse, et les sorties organisées sont au top ! Très très bons repas, qui changent tous les jours. Il vaut mieux réserver directement sur le site de la Pousada car sinon, on perd l’activité quotidienne incluse dans la réservation.
- Silvia (10/5): Non potevamo chiedere di più - È stato tutto perfetto. La pousada è incantevole e accogliente. Staff disponibile nella risoluzione di problemi al 100%. Consiglio vivamente di soggiornare qui Nulla da segnalare
- Simon (8/5): -
- Jorge (9/5): Tudo perfeito, acomodações, refeições, opções de passeios, atendimento, recomendo - infraestrutura, acomodação, restaurante, passeios, atendimento nada que não tenha me agradado
- Rodrigo (10/5): -
- Anamaria (8/5): Very good -
- Edward (1/5): Bad - 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.
- Carolina (10/5): Exceptional -
- White (7/5): Charming pousada in Pantanal. - 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.
- Mary (10/5): loved it. - comfortable rooms. good restaurant. beautiful setting. lots of birds. next to the river.
- Katharina (9/5): Superb - 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.
- Jeannie (10/5): Exceptional - Staff were very kind and let us check in early, outstanding food, nice setting on the river
- Emma (8/5): Very good -
- Rafaela (5/5): Passable -
- Luiz (10/5): Exceptional - The staff was exceptionally friendly!
- John (8/5): Very good -
- Wheeler (6/5): Good stay overall. - 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.
- Chris (9/5): Nice Pousada, Friendly Staff and Good Food. - 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.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - gostei muito da alimentação, cordialidade dos funcionários e limpeza e arrumação
