Along this path, you can also check out the “Encontro das Águas” towards Vila do Careiro, see the traditional dolphins, animals of the region, and even pass by the Pirarucu floating boat, which preserves the fish.

There are 21 cabins, eight with views of the forest, twelve with views of the lake and one panoramic cabin. The accommodations, all with hammocks, were designed in the form of bungalows to offer a true Amazonian experience to its guests. That’s why they were built on stilts, on dry land, on the banks of Lake Juma, so that in times of river flooding the water level would not hinder the movement of hotel guests.
