Hotels in Southern Pantanal

Barra Mansa Pantanal Hotel

Southern Pantanal

8 Rooms

From $250 per person/night

A working ranch and some of the best wildlife viewing in all of Brazil.

When Guilherme Rondon inherited his grandfather's cattle ranch in 1996, he could easily have sold it to developers. Instead, this passionate conservationist opened the doors to just 22 guests at a time... and the rest is history! Located 225 kilometres from Campo Grande, just where the Rio Negro meets the seasonal floodplains of Vazante do Castelo, it's one of the most protected areas in the Pantanal and the wildlife is abundant. In flood season, crystal-clear waters surround the lodge, turning morning coffee into a lakeside experience. Beyond, weathered pantaneiros still guide up to 1,000-strong herds of cattle, continuing traditions that predate your great-grandparents and adding to a truly authentic Pantanal experience.

Casa Caiman in Caiman Ecological Refuge

Southern Pantanal

18 Rooms

From $690 per person/night

A refuge for wandering souls and jaguars alike, this is Brazil at its wildest.

One of the most biodiverse regions on the planet, the Pantanal is just the place for an adventure. Jaguars prowl its forests, anacondas sun themselves on fallen trees and giant anteaters lope through the undergrowth. But in this wild and wonderful place, good accommodation is hard to come by – so let us introduce you to the Casa Caiman. Actually part of a 53,000-hectare, family-run cattle ranch deeply committed to preserving this intrepid corner of the world, the refugio is pioneering eco-tourism in the Southern Pantanal. One of their most successful projects involves the habituation of jaguars – they have a 90% success rate for sightings in the dry season! In between the many excursions that you will enjoy, Caiman Ecological Refuge offers all the necessary infrastructure and plenty of comfort for travellers to rest and contemplate nature in their rooms.

Casa Caiman Private Villa

Southern Pantanal

6 Rooms

From $790 per person/night

A remote refuge on the Paraguay River, where jaguars swim past your breakfast table.

A family-run, six-room exclusive retreat, Villa Baiazinha sits in splendid isolation on the banks of the Paraguay River. You are, quite literally, the only tourists for miles around - and the only ones with exclusive access to the waters around the Taiamã Ecological Reserve, one of Brazil's most protected and remote wildlife sanctuaries. Here, you're not just visiting the Pantanal – you're living it, with jaguars regularly spotted swimming in front of the lodge and capybaras treating the riverbank like their personal beach club. The five-hour journey from Cuiabá isn't an easy undertaking, but for those who understand that sometimes the best experiences require serious commitment to reach them, it's worth every minute...
