The accommodation was clean and comfortable. The staff were very welcoming and we arrived to a decorated room, a chilled bottle of sparkling wine and a lovely message congratulating us on our honeymoon. The food is basic and a touch repetitive but edible and plentiful. They have a card system for drinks which means you do not have carry cash... More

In other circumstances the Pousada would have had a 'very good' rating - our pick up from the airport was on time and we had a comfortable van with a driver and guide to point out all the interesting bird life on our two and a half hour drive to Rio Mutum. Our accommodation was basic but clean, with twin... More

This Pousada is a long drive south from Cuiaba on roads that start almost adequate and finish as rutted track, and takes between 2 and 3 hours. The rooms are modern and comfortable, with quiet A/C and good showers. Food is plentiful and self-service, in a grass-roofed circular hall. There is also a library, with useful maps and books, adjoining... More

I am used to travel. The type of hotel I stay goes from very luxurious ones to backpacker dormitories. So I know that every service has a price. My stay in this hotel has 2 sides: the good one first. The place is realy nice. Very remote and calm. Each room is a double bengalow with A/C, fridge and hot... More

We had an amazing time at the Pousada do Rio Mutum. Of course, without a doubt, the Pantanal was amazing... breathtaking and truly a nature wonder (a must see). The staff at the Pousada (including Alice, the owner, Elder the manager and of course our amazing guide, Ziene) made our stay truly special. The service, the food (home cooked every... More

It is a fairly long and bumpy ride from Cuiaba airport by 4x4 (apparently in the flood season the last part of the transfer is by river), we only stayed 2 nights and I'd recommend a longer stay to make the travel more worthwhile. Although the driver did stop whenever he spotted an interesting animal or bird. The accommodation is... More

A wonderful way to experience a unique environment - nice facilities, good food, and wonderful guides. There is an abundance of wildlife and wonderful scenery that is easily accessible by boat and on horse back. Don't miss the fabulous and colorful sunrises and sunsets reflected on the water.....we came away with terrific pictures. More

I just want make sure to add the information that the closest airport to Pousada Rio Mutum Pantanal Lodge is in CUIABA-MT NOT Campo Grande MS. Cuiaba city is the capital of the state of Mato Grosso. Pantanal is a really big area and it is important to arrive at the right airport to get to Pousada do Rio Mutum... More

Really enjoyed our time in Rio Mutum. We spent 4 days there having wonderful excursion in a fantastic place with plenty of birds and other animals. The staff is very kind and the rooms are comfortable with air conditioning and are cleaned every day. The location is great and easy to go with horses or with a small boat on... More

Located in the heart of the Pantanal, 3 hrs drive from Cuiaba, Pousada Rio Mutum exceeds expectations by a considerable margin. Located in its own grounds with swimming pool, restaurant/bar and many mature trees on the edge of the wetlands. At first sight somewhat care worn with rather basic but comfortable cabin accommodation; first impressions are swept aside by an... More
