We've stayed here for three nights and enjoyed our stay very much. Rooms are good and include airco (which we didn't need, but when you are there in summer you will like this). Food is very good. We've done the boattours a few times, went horsebackriding and walked some short hiking trails. This lodge is locate on the river. There... More

Visiting this place was definitively a highlight on my 6 week trip to Brazil ! A few comments on specific elements of the trip: Location: I have spent quite some time in the Amazon rain forest. However I have to admit that Pantanal offers some great wildlife observation chances. The further south on the Transpantaneira you can go, the better... More

We stayed here for 5 days and 4 nights and had a brilliant time. Although not "birders" which seemed to be the main draw for other guests we saw some amazing birds, mammals and reptiles. Our guide, Allison, was very knowledgeable and tailored the excursions to our more general, want to see everything needs. We went for treks, boat rides,... More

The Pantanal Wildlife Center (PWC), previously known as Fazenda Santa Tereza, is at Kilometre 66 on the Transpanteneira, THE road into the northern Pantanal. Don't be fooled by their address of Pocone into thinking it is near Pocone town. That means 1.5 hours transfer (they send an airconditioned minivan) once you reach the unmetalled Transpantaneira (add 2 hours to that... More
