Great staff and location
The manager Valdecir was exceptional. Very happy and patient with me and my translator :). The farm was beautiful .
One of the workers Voldemort (sp) was incredible bird spotter and would recommend taking a walk or two with him if you enjoy seeing birds.
The food was delicious and beyond plentiful. I was surprised how good everything was as it was as it’s a farm not a luxury resort.
The bathrooms could do with a severe upgrade/deep clean. Thought it was a bit expensive.

Wonderful location
The location was fantastic. Well organised trips. Staff were really helpful.
Our room was rather dark and there was no view of the amazing lagoon behind us.
The heat in the room was made worse at night by the fabric of the bed sheets. Couldn’t use the pool as it had not been maintained correctly

Avoid Pousada Sao Joao
The position is amazing, many many animals just around the pousada.
Frankly I don't understand how can this ranch be opened to tourism. The place is in the middle of nowhere, you pay a fortune just for sleeping and eating three times a day the same things and as you try to move, everything looks like a big swindle (especially the tours). The transfer should have been included from/to the airport as written in our Booking reservation, but we had to pay both times and it was not told until we arrived at our destination.
The guide Fernando is annoying and useless, harassing you around the whole day for going all the time to the same places in different ways: he puts no effort in explaining to you the environment, just makes stupid jokes and expects you to laugh. I am sure he's one of this false guides the guidebooks warn you about. He insisted on taking us to a "safari" while it was heavy raing knowing we wouldn't see any animal (the staff didn't warn us either).
In the ranch there are thousands of cows, but seems that many of them are dying (they may have a disease) and no one there has the mercy to put an end to their suffering: they just leave the dying cows to the vultures, and normally let you pass in front of them on horseriding, putting you in danger (the horses are scared and try to escape) and letting you see these poor animals with their eyes eaten by the vultures. The guide Fernando even offered us a knife, just in case we were interested in the amazing experience of killing a cow as an act of mercy.
I am sorry to write these things like that, looks like I am a review-rat spreading my hate for the world under the protection of a pc screen: the truth is that i never felt so tricked in my life while travelling, and I bet there are dozens of pousadas much more worth to enjoy than this one. They made me hate the Pantanal, which is a wonderful place to stay in. But not at Posada Sao Joao.

Hervorragende Unterkunft mit leckerem brasilianischen Essen. Auf der Farm kann man alle möglichen brasilianischen Tiere beobachten: Aras, Kaimane, Papageien, Tukane, Eulen usw.
Man sollte sich jedoch gewahr sein, dass die Farm etwas von den Flüssen entfernt liegt. Ich empfehle eine weitere Buchung an einer am Fluss gelegenen Pousada/ Hotel, sodass man schneller ans Wasser kommt.

Wir haben hier eine tolle Zeit verbracht. Unser Guide hat alle Ausflüge für uns organisiert. Er sprach gut Englisch. Die Mischung aus den Ausflügen war sehr schön. Das Essen war sehr gut. Der Pool sehr angenehm. Das Zimmer (Familie für 4) war einfach, aber sauber mit Klimaanlage und eigenem Bad.
Von der Autosafari hatte ich etwas mehr erwartet. Wir fuhren nur die „Hauptstraße“ entlang. Da es Samstag war und wohl eine Rinderauktion in der Gegend stattgefunden hat, fuhren viele Autos/LKWs auf der Straße. Kein Wunder also, dass man nicht viele Tiere gesehen hat und man wurde ordentlich eingestaubt. Dennoch haben wir in der Ferne Brüllaffen gesehen und ein Gürteltier lief uns über den Weg. Andere Gäste der Pousada hatten Tags zuvor mehr Glück und bekamen eine Wildkatze mit Baby und einen Ameisenbären vor die Kamera und andere sahen frische Jaguarspuren an der Pousada. Muss man halt Glück haben und weniger LKW Verkehr. Ich würde aber alle Touren wieder machen. Die Bootssafari mit Piranha-angeln war super.
