Flotel and Jaguar Suites

The Pantanal


Moored on the Piquirí in the heart of jaguar territory, these twin houseboats are the accommodations for wildlife-viewing packages run by Southwild. The Flotel has small cabin-like en-suite rooms; the adjacent Jaguar Suites are a newer construction with very roomy wood-fitted chambers with mosquito-netted beds, large windows and balconies. Tasty meals, a jaguar database and wildlife talks make this tops for serious nature-watchers.

Packages include transfers from Cuiabá, meals and two daily excursions. From March to May, it functions as a base for fishing excursions with Transpantanal.
