Titilaka Hotel

One of the most beautiful places I think I’ve ever been. If you’re going to lake Titicaca this is the place to stay. Very attentive staff, clean rooms, and great food. My only note is that the spa services could’ve been a little better but that’s not why you’re there.

This is a beautiful hotel with exceptional service. The rooms have a stunning view of the Lake. The hotel offers a number of excursions with knowledgeable guides, and the itineraries can be customized. The staff — ranging from the hotel services to the restaurant — were so enthusiastic and helpful.

It was amazing experience staying at Titikaka hotel! Room, service, excursion, food…. I enjoyed every moment. Thank you very much for your hospitality.

This is a great choice when visiting Lake Titicaca. It is outside of the hustle and bustle of Puno (about a 40 minute drive from the Puno train station), and is an all-inclusive destination with exclusive activities that provide an up-close, personal experience. The lodge is situated right on the lake, in the small town of Titilaka, so is removed from everything – in all the best ways! It is beautifully designed and welcoming, from the minute you step inside. The variety of activities available allow you to do as much or as little as you please. On the visit to the reed islands at Uros, they take you to a private island, so you don’t have to interact with the other tour groups, giving you a very intimate and immersive look at life on the islands. After visiting the reed islands, you visit Taquile island, which was fascinating, and enjoy a private lunch on a beautiful overlook. We also participated in the astronomy presentation and stargazing, which was very interesting and informative. The menu and food at the lodge is amazing. We stayed for two nights and enjoyed every minute.

Totally over-the-top luxury in a spectacular location on Lake Titicaca. The attention to detail was impressive. Meals were excellent, as were the Pisco Sours. Full menu of day activities but even these were flexible depending on weather, etc. In short, one of the most outstanding hotels we've ever visited. The room was spacious, comfortable with a great view over the Lake. Transport was seamless both pick-up and drop-off at the Cuzco train. If you do visit, would recommend a minimum of 3 nights as the location is well outside of Puno

We stayed 2 nights in the resort in Sep, 2023. Overall it was a fantastic experience and I highly recommended the resort to people who want to visit Lake Titicaca. # Location The resort is NOT in Puno but further south. It is about 1 hour from Puno and 2 hours from Juliaca airport. The resort does provide complimentary train station / airport pickup & drop-off, but it does add some overhead when getting in & out of the resort. Being in a remote location also has benefits: (1) The resort is on the beach, and there is a lagoon nearby. The lake view is fantastic and environment is very serene. We enjoyed every minute in the resort. (2) The resort is about 45 mins boat ride from Taquile island. We took the day trip, and it took 90 mins from the resort to the floating island, 90 mins from the floating island to Taquile, and 45 mins from Taquile back to the resort. So in total 225 mins boat ride can take you to both floating island and Taquile. I guess it is a similar amount of effort if you want to visit both the floating island and Taquile from Puno. # Room & Facility The room is spacious and well equipped. Our room has the superb lake view, and I was able to watch the sunrise from the bed. It is also very quiet at night and we had good sleep during our stays. The resort also has many common areas with comfortable sofas, couches, and great views. We spent some time enjoying coffee, tea, and snacks in the common areas. # Service The service is top notch. The great experience started from the train station pick-up, where the resort not only provided a driver, but also an English-speaking guide. They also accommodated us to visit a local pharmacy to buy some supplies. The van is also well equipped with hot towels and bottle water. The excursions were also great. We took a 8-hour boat tour to visit the floating island and Taquile. The resort has their own boats, captions, and guides, and all excursions seem to be in small groups (~5 guests with 1 caption and 1 guide). In the floating island and Taquile island, we had similar demonstrations from the local people (as other larger groups), but the experiences feel more VIP due to the smaller group. We had lunch in a local restaurant on Taquile. The view was fantastic, overseeing both sides of the island. Being vegetarians, we were initially concerned about the food, but it seemed that the resort prepared and transported the food to the restaurant, and thus the food quality is very similar to the resort. # Food We are vegetarians. The restaurant is a la carte style and they changed a part of the menu every day. They have plenty of vegetarian options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The food is quite delicious and delicate, very comparable to the best restaurants in larger cities such as Cusco.

An absolute must if you plan to visit Puno. It is not cheap but when you consider that the rate includes 3 meals a day and local guided tours and a magical setting it is well worth the 2 hour trip (transportation included) from the airport and the price. Highly recommend that you stay at least 3 nights to really relax and take advantage of all the experiences (astronomy lesson with stargazing, Uros island boat tour, bike tour, birdwatching, etc). Our guide Elmer was outstanding. Super fun, friendly and knowledgeable with excellent English language skill. We were lucky to have him all 3 days. Food is outstanding. Lots of local organic options including gluten free. Some menu items change each day and lots of cocktail options. The service is friendly and unpretentious. Rooms have staggeringly beautiful views and very comfortable. If you have time, don’t miss this place. We had a driver take us from Cusco to Puno with a stop at Rainbow mountain on the way (less busy side with ATV or motorbikes to take us to the top to avoid the grueling hike at super high altitude). Stayed 1 night in cheap hotel in central Puno town because we arrived too late to justify the additional night cost and wanted to see the town. The Titilaka hotel guide came to get us the next day.

This all-inclusive lodge is DEFINITELY WORTH THE MONEY. Airport transfers, excursions, food, drinks, oxygen (if you need it) - ALL INCLUDED. Best Peru experience. Saw and learned so much. Staff is by your side every step of the way.
