Anavilhanas Jungle Lodge

Location

Anavilhanas archipelago (Amazon lodges and cruises, Brazil)

Description

A small lodge, around 3 hours north-west of Manaus by road. The lodge sits on the banks of the Rio Negro opposite the Anavilhanas archipelago (400 islands) and is surrounded by rivers and lush Amazon jungle. The main dining area serves buffet meals with a large variety of local fruits. There is a swimming pool with a view over the river.

Activities

Jungle walks, wildlife spotting, piranha fishing, canoeing, visits to local villages.

Accommodation

24 comfortable cottages, bungalows and panoramic bungalows are built on suspended wooden structures. All have air conditioning, cable TV, beds, hot and cold shower, mini-bar and a private veranda hammock.

Our comments

The trip to see the pink dolphins, which have been visiting the nearby village of Novo Airão for years, is memorable. Very few biting insects (due to the acidic waters of the Rio Negro), and as a result less wildlife than some other forests.

When to go

Any time. The dry season is from September to December.
