pure magic!
We were fortunate enough to stay here for 3 nights. It is an absolute gem in Brazil and even though it takes it bit of travelling you should visit! The place is magical. Staff and guides are absolutely amazing and there is so much love and attention for the guests that you will leave with a heavy heart. Food it outstanding but most of all you should go here in search of the maned wolf. You will do so with Oncasafari who try to give you an amazing experience. The Brazilian savannah is fading fast and it is great to see this effort to keep it alive and well.

Fabulous stay
This is a marvellous place. It is set in lovely gardens. The rooms are beautiful with wooden fittings that meet their mission to be sustainable.
The food is excellent , using locally sourced ingredients.
The highlight of this pousada is the staff who are delightful, always eager to help and ensure that you have everything you need. The room is cleaned at least twice a day. Laundry is offered.
The guides are knowledgeable and passionate. Their enthusiasm is infectious. The presentation prior to the maned wolves safari is very informative and really sets off the safari. The conservation work they are undertaking is crucial to the survival of the environment that enables the maned wolves to thrive.
My husband has poor mobility. Every effort was made by the staff to assist him to undertake all of the activities. I can’t thank them enough and a particular shout out for the manager and Vinny.

It's the perfect lodge for those who want to delve deeper into the Cerrado biome!
It’s the perfect lodge for those who want to delve deeper into the Cerrado biome. The team of guides (all biologists) are extremely competent, attentive and, most importantly, passionate about the Cerrado and all its beauties and specificities. It’s impossible not to get involved and fall in love too. I certainly left Trijunção with the commitment to be (try to be) another voice in defense of Brazil’s biomes (there you realize that they are all interconnected). The experiences, all included in the daily rate, promote a genuine immersion in the biome and the pousada provides all the necessary structure (binoculars, food, equipment, transportation) for the experiences to take place safely and comfortably. In between tours, the wellness and leisure area is a delight: you can take a dip in the pool, or a moment in the hot tub, or even a massage in the spa, all with a view of the Cerrado (or all of it together!). An idea I’ve only just thought of, and I regret it! Hahahaha…) The cuisine, which marries perfectly with the typical food of the three states represented here, as well as paying homage to the novel Grande Sertão: Veredas, with inside and outside cooking, could be a separate chapter: the dishes I tried were all prepared with great technique, attention and, above all, seasoning. It was delicious food with options for vegans and vegetarians (my case). On one day, I asked for a change to a dish and the request was well received and met. It’s a hostel with a soul. A special hug to Maria, Maycon and Ana Clara, who took care of me in the restaurant, and to the guides Rayane, Alan, Pedro and Vinícius, who were able to convey to me all their passion and care for the Cerrado.

A beautiful stay
After maybe a 60-90 minute drive off road and you first walk into this hotel, the garden you enter is like a mini haven, a secret garden – beautiful! The staff were adorable, friendly and just lovely. Alan greeted us on reception along with Hi (forgive me, I have probably spelled her name wrong!) and the pair were fabulous.

Our room (number 5) was clean, cool and very nicely presented, the bed was super comfortable; although a beautiful tree stump isn’t big enough as a bed side table, for me anyway ;-).

The swimming pool was a lovely relief after a tour and I very much enjoyed the jacuzzi and used the massage table for my back stretches daily.

The food was delicious and the restaurant team were always available to get a snack of a cup of tea!

Vinney’s bird watching tour should not be missed, he easily called the birds over to for a closer viewing with the use of his Bluetooth speaker hanging from a nearby tree.

Laundry service was quick and efficient.

The tours provided were all terrific and well thought out.
