Anavilhanas Jungle Lodge is located 110 km northwest of Manaus, on the right margin of Rio Negro (Black River). The Lodge is right across from the world’s largest river archipelago, bathed by the Rio Negro waters and cut by Pato and Monteiro riverbanks. In the region considered as the fountainhead of the Amazon basin, Anavilhanas Jungle Lodge is the perfect place to rest and relax.
A Top Amazon Jungle Lodge
The hotel can be reached by land or by water. From Manaus, after crossing the majestic Rio Negro in one of the regular ferry boats, you will take a comfortable van across a road that stretches 180km into the woods and leads to the small town of Novo Airao. The hotel is about 15 minutes from the town sailing down the Rio Negro, and the access is not affected by the yearly droughts in the region. Transport takes an average of 3:15 hours and is coordinated by the hotel.
As with the majority of Amazonian counties, there is an extremely low population density in Novo Airao due to the low number of residents and to its vast area (37.500 km2: almost as large as Switzerland). 85% of its total area is ruled by regimes of environmental protection, so the county invests in cultural and tourism activities, taking advantage of its privileged position and ecological orientation.
At Anavilhanas, hosting by itself is not enough. All of our guests are presented with guided tours by natives and bi-lingual guides in English and Spanish at no additional cost. Each package was designed to bring out the essence of the Amazon in accordance to the number of days a guest spends at the Lodge. Spending more time with us, the guest has more tours available, and can live more experiences and reach new horizons.
