Uakari Floating Lodge, Eco-lodge in Mamirauá Reserve, Brazil

The Uakari Floating Lodge consists of five bungalows with ten rooms, built on floating wooden platforms within the Amazon rainforest waters.

Founded in 1998, this lodge emerged as Brazil's first sustainable tourism project in the Mamirauá Reserve, integrating conservation with local community development.

Ten riverine communities manage the lodge operations, employing local residents as guides, cooks, and maintenance staff while sharing their traditional knowledge with visitors.

Guests reach the lodge through a ninety-minute boat ride from Tefé city, which connects to Manaus via daily one-hour flights or twelve-hour boat journeys.

The property features a natural swimming pool, solar-powered facilities, and recycled plastic tiles, demonstrating environmental practices in the Amazon rainforest.
