"Pros: Everything about our experience with Vista do Lago was quaint, charming, relaxed and convenient. We were contacted ahead of our visit to schedule pickup from the airport, accommodate dietary restrictions, and arrange activities for the duration of our stay. Our flight arrived in late, and as a silver lining of this, we were treated to a star-lit boat ride to the lodge on the first night. The rooms were clean and comfortable with great AC. The staff were polite and helpful, and our provided English speaking guide helped with everything we might need. The activities to be had around the lodge were nothing too incredible, but super laid back, including swimming with pink dolphins, jungle hiking, and sunset viewing. Everything, including one activity per day, was included in the reservation. The food provided was all Amazonian or Brazilian and tasted amazing! This lodge proved to us that the Amazon is not as intimidating as you might think. If you are looking for a relaxing and informative time not far from the airport, this is your place!" ~Branson
