Located two and a half hours by road from Cuiabá airport, the Pantanal Wildlife Center eco-lodge lies on the banks of the Pixaim River. The lodge is composed of a large, fully-screened living and dining room, an outdoor seating area, and a library of the countries wildlife. Each of our twelve screened guest rooms has a private bathroom with a hot shower, overhead fan, air conditioning, and one queen or two twin beds.

To eliminate plastic bottle waste, the lodge offers complimentary, chilled drinking water dispensed from dedicated water coolers. Please bring your own durable bottle to refill.

At Pantanal Wildlife Center, we are constantly improving both the quantity and quality of our amazing wildlife sightings. We access field, forest, and river on horseback, boat outings, trail walks, mobile observation towers, electric photo catamarans, as well as night spotlighting from our dedicated truck with special photo logistics. The last three are unique to our lodges, offered nowhere else in the Pantanal.

We also have the world’s only observation tower of a Jabiru Stork nest. The 12 metre tall platform is accessed by a user-friendly spiral staircase. The top of the tower is on level with the nest, which is only 15 m away. Our specially-trained naturalists have habituated these storks (pictured above) for years so the birds completely ignore guests and carry out their most intimate nesting behaviour in full view.
