Stayed 3 days and 2 nights at this amazing rainforest boutique cabin, run by a Brazilian family and their team. Friendly and knowledgeable local staff, amazing food every day, the tours were amazing (the trekking and sunrise are a must!!). As a female solo traveller, I felt super safe. Can’t really put it into words, thank you!!!

(Translated by Google) Guys, my name is Fernanda, I'm Eduardo's wife and we've been there for the last 3 days. I would first like to congratulate Marília for her entrepreneurial vision and for having fought and built such a nice place - which is made much more special by the presence of Mr. Moacir from the reception, lunches listening to him tell the difference between manioc and cassava, his concern all the time to make everything pleasant. The lodge has the warmth of a family, and it is certainly a gentleman who deserves all the gratitude for being able to maintain such an "atmosphere". My thanks to the WHOLE team, without exception. You guys have an amazing and very polite cook, Cissa is super helpful and polite, Gabi is a girl show, a super nice person. Robson is pure simplicity, but with a sensational charisma. And last but not least, I wanted to thank Wellington. He is a rare gem, one that you can never miss. Such a humble person and at the same time so proud of everything he's already achieved, so funny without the slightest effort for it. An awesome guy who made everyone's ride so much more fun. Thank you all. Keep it up - you are on the right path. (Original) Gente, meu nome é Fernanda, sou esposa do Eduardo e estivemos aí nos últimos 3 dias. Gostaria de primeiramente parabenizar à Marília por sua visão empreendorista e por ter batalhado e construído um lugar tão bacana - que se torna muito mais especial pela presença do sr. Moacir desde a recepção, almoços ouvindo ele contar a diferença entre mandioca e macaxeira, a preocupação dele o tempo todo em deixar tudo agradável. O lodge tem aconchego de família, e com certeza é um senhor que merece toda a gratidão por conseguir manter uma "atmosfera" assim. Meu agradecimento à TODA a equipe, sem excessão. Vcs tem um cozinheiro sensacional e educadíssimo, Cissa super solícita e educada, Gabi é um show de menina, uma pessoa super agradável. O Robson é uma simplicidade pura, mas com um carisma sensacional. E por último mas não menos importante, queria agradecer ao Wellington. Ele é uma jóia rara, dessas que vcs não podem perder nunca. Uma pessoa tão humilde e ao mesmo tempo tão orgulhoso de tudo que já conquistou, tão engraçado sem o menor esforço pra isso. Um cara sensacional que tornou o passeio de todo mundo muito mais divertido. Obrigada a todos. Continuem assim - vocês estão no caminho certo.

(Translated by Google) Excellent hotel, beautiful place and unparalleled natural beauty. Impeccable service, very good food. Gabi, the chef and the guides Wellington and Robson are wonderful!!!! My only complaint is that as we spend some time at the inn between tours, there is a lack of options for snacks and basic items to buy. The hotel could have a small shop as there is no possibility close by, in addition, snacks and fruit could be available to guests. We miss that a lot especially for the kids. If I had known, I would have taken options. (Original) Excelente hotel, lugar lindo e de uma beleza natural sem tamanho. Atendimento impecável, comida muito boa. Gabi, o chef de cozinha e os guias Wellington e Robson são maravilhosos!!!! Minha única queixa é que como passamos um tempo na pousada entre os passeios faltam opções de petiscos e itens básicos para compra. O hotel poderia dispor de uma lojinha já que não existe nenhuma possibilidade por perto além disso, poderia ter a disposição dos hóspedes lanchinhos e frutas. Sentimos muita falta disso principalmente para as crianças. Se soubesse teria levado opções.

Spent 4 days in this amazing and magical place. Manati Lodge is a comfortable place to stay, with ethical sustainable values. The staff is lovely, Omar goes over the top to assist us and Robinson, our guide, has a deep knowledge about the forest. The activities were great. The food is amazing and I was happy to know that Manati hires workers from the local community as well as buy food from local producers, supporting a sustainable chain in a place that depends heavily on tourism. The standard room is more than you need in the forest, a comfortable bed, air conditioning and private bathroom. The meals are local cuisine, healthy and delicious. It was an unforgettable trip for me and my partner. Don’t have anything to complain about it.

A great place with kind staff. Robinson the guide who joined us make our week the best ever, on every single day. If you look for a guide that speaks English - Robinson is the one you should ask for!

From the accomodations to the guides the food and the location, everything was a delight. Highly recommend a stay and a visit of Iranduba.

(Translated by Google) Wonderful location, but services could improve. It seems that we went at a time when there were problems in the kitchen, well mentioned in other reviews. It was one of the reasons for our choice, as we already knew other tours with wonderful cuisines, including a 5-day stay in a simple boat. In Manati the food was in limited quantity, the fruits in the cafe ran out soon and weren't replenished - you had to arrive early to eat papaya. The breaded fish (frying) was repeated a lot, they could have done more fish baked and in sauce. Too much pasta and rice and not enough salad and vegetables. Lots of cake and sweets with condensed milk for dessert and few dessert options with local fruits (only one day). We also felt dissatisfaction among the staff, even though they tried to serve guests in the best possible way. Very uncomfortable boats for 2-3h ride in the morning, and 2 or 3 in the afternoon, almost every day. Departure time was brought forward on the last day, at the last hour, without reasonable justification. One group was told it was because of the other and we ended up finding out it wasn't. But the place is beautiful, especially with the river full, as we took, in early August. From then on, a lot of clay appears. Very dark rooms, a light paint would work miracles! (Original) Local maravilhoso, mas os serviços podem melhorar. Parece que fomos num momento em que havia problemas na cozinha, bem falada em outras avaliações. Foi um dos motivos da nossa escolha, pois já conhecíamos outros passeios com cozinhas maravilhosas, inclusive com estadia 5 dias em embarcação simples. No Manati os alimentos eram em quantidade limitada, as frutas no café acabavam logo e não eram repostas - você tinha que chegar cedo para comer mamão. Repetiu-se muito o peixe à milanesa (fritura), poderiam ter feito mais peixes assados e ao molho. Muito macarrão e arroz e pouca salada e legumes. Muito bolo e doces com leite condensado na sobremesa e poucas opções de sobremesas com as frutas locais (só um dia). Também sentimos uma insatisfação entre os funcionários, ainda que tentassem atender aos hóspedes da melhor maneira possível. Barcos muito desconfortáveis para 2-3h de passeio pela manhã, e 2 ou 3 a tarde, quase todos os dias. Horário de saída foi antecipado no último dia, na última hora, sem justificativa razoável. Disseram a um grupo que era por causa do outro e acabamos descobrindo que não era. Mas o local é lindo, especialmente com o rio cheio, como pegamos, em inicinho de agosto. Daí pra frente já aparece bastante barro. Quartos muito escuros, uma tinta clara faria milagres!

(Translated by Google) Excellent and magical hotel, with delicious meals prepared by chef Silvano. All the staff welcomed us with a smile on their face and very welcoming! Mrs Ciça and Gabi are too sweet! Cute ones! Robson and Wellington guides are great! Wellington knows the jungle like no one else. We learn and have fun at the same time. Those were unforgettable days! Ah… And Mr Moacir, a nice person. Always very kind! Hope to return soon! I miss you already! (Original) Hotel excelente e mágico, com refeições deliciosas preparadas pelo chef Silvano. Todos os funcionários nos receberam com um sorriso no rosto e muito acolhedores! A Sra Ciça e a Gabi são queridas demais! Umas fofas! Os guias Robson e Wellington são ótimos! O Wellington conhece a selva como ninguém. Aprendemos e nos divertimos ao mesmo tempo. Foram dias inesquecíveis! Ah… E o Sr Moacir, uma graça de pessoa. Sempre muito gentil! Espero voltar em breve! Já estou com saudades!

(Translated by Google) An incredibly beautiful, magical place. We were there for a whole week and found it indescribably beautiful. Everything is perfectly organized, the food is delicious and the people there are very, very friendly. Everything was very informal and relaxed. The tours with Wellington and Robson were amazing and we learned a lot! Thank you Manati, we'd love to come back <3 (Original) Ein unfassbar schöner, magischer Ort. Wir waren eine ganze Woche dort und fanden es unbeschreiblich schön. Alles ist perfekt organisiert, das Essen super lecker und die Menschen dort sehr sehr freundlich. Alles war sehr familiär und locker. Die Touren mit Wellington und Robson waren der Wahnsinn und wir haben sehr viel gelernt! Danke Manati, wir kommen gerne wieder vorbei <3

(Translated by Google) Manati Lodge has a super special Staff (Silvano, Gabriela, Wellington, Robinson, Robson and Seu Moacir) what dear people! Delicious meals and super comfortable rooms, new split air conditioning! We love the tours and have nothing but praise for them. I suggest choosing the 4 days and 3 nights package because we chose 3 days and 2 nights and we're leaving wanting more! (Original) O Manati Lodge tem um Staff super especial (Silvano, Gabriela, Wellington, Robinson, Robson e seu Moacir) que pessoas queridas! As refeições deliciosas e os quartos super confortáveis, ar condicionado split novos! Adoramos os passeios e temos apenas elogios a fazer. Sugiro escolherem o pacote de 4 dias e 3 noites pois escolhemos 3 dias e 2 noites e estamos indo embora com gostinho de quero mais!

(Translated by Google) Located in the middle of the forest, this place is magnificent with boat trips for sunrises and sunsets of all beauty and in the good humor of the guide, but some improvements would make the stay more pleasant. The restocking of food from the buffets is quickly reduced to nothing if you arrive a few minutes after opening and when you are lucky the choice is repetitive and basic. The windows of the rooms have neither pane nor mosquito net, thus forcing us to live with the shutters permanently closed, whereas the suites have bay windows. No security barrier in the dining room. The planks of the pontoon are rotten and I hurt myself slightly going through in the shower, causing more laughter than apologies from the staff. Apart from that everything is fine. (Original) Situé en pleine forêt, cet endroit est magnifique avec des sorties en bateau pour les levés et couchés de soleil de toutes beauté et dans la bonne humeur du guide, mais certaines améliorations rendraient le séjour plus agréable. Le réassort des aliments des buffets est vite réduit à néant si on arrive quelques minutes après l'ouverture et quand on y est chanceux le choix est répétitif et basique. Les fenêtres des chambres n'ont ni vitre ni moustiquaire, nous obligent ainsi à vivre les volets clos en permanence, alors que que les suites ont des baies vitrées. Aucune barrière de sécurité dans la salle de restaurant. Les planches du ponton sont pourries et je me suis blessé légèrement en passant au travers sous la douche, occasionnant plus de rires que d'excuse de la part du personnel. A part cela tout va bien.

A beautiful place to stay when visiting the Amazon. The rooms are clean and air conditioned, the beds are soft, the drinks are cold, the food is good, and you won't find a better view. Plus, they have the perfect dock set up for swimming!

Spectacular place to visit

Impecavel! A Manati oferece um serviço incrível desde o momento em que chegamos la. Funcionários receptivos, comida sensacional, passeios maravilhosos, guias com muito conhecimento e todos com muito amor pra nos receber. Indico de olhos fechados e sou muito grata pelos dias em que fiquei hospedada. Espero voltar em breve 🫶🏼

Experiência incrível! Comida excelente!! Todo o staff e maravilhoso e acolhedor! Gabiii você faz a melhor caipirinha : )

Fiquei hospedada no Manati por 4 noites. Foram dias incríveis. O hotel é extremamente limpo, bem em meio a selva e não há nem teias de aranhas no quarto. Tudo sempre muito cheiroso e organizado. A comida é maravilhosa!! A equipe do hotel é nota mil! Todos sempre super solícitos e disponíveis, me senti em casa e super acolhida. Não poderia deixar de fazer um comentário a parte ao guia Wellington. Morador da região, conhece tudo melhor que a palma da mão. Super profissional e sempre feliz em responder as dúvidas dos turistas. Recomendo sem ressalvas!!
