Titicaca Sariri Lodge

The views were amazing, the staff really helpful and kind.

Not many food options

Issac and his wife Gladys are some of the most wonderful people you will ever meet. I was worried about arriving at night in the dark but Isaac was waiting at the docks with his warm welcome. Gladys cooked us a gorgeous chicken dinner which we ate in our lodge - just what we needed after a long day travelling! Her breakfast was incredible one if not our best in Peru, the fruit was so fresh and tasty! Waking up to sunrise was so incredible, and Issac’s information on the islands was really great along with the fishing trip and a quick tour around the local islands. Honestly I think this is the best, most authentic ways to experience the floating islands! Issac is never in a rush and there’s no rush to get you back to Puno, so we had a great time relaxing and enjoying the beautiful scenery. A once in a lifetime stay and Gladys does make some beautiful authentic gifts you can purchase.

The only thing I’d suggest is don’t go to the local restaurant, although it’s nice to support local businesses, we wished we’d either stayed and enjoyed Gladys beautiful cooking one more time or just headed straight to Puno. Also pack coffee with you - we had some in our bag to enjoy with our breakfast but otherwise only tea is offered which is totally fine just a tip for other coffee lovers like me!

Lovely family thanks to Isaac and Gladys. Beautifully decorated room. Lovely breakfast included and nice dinner as added extra. Family were not imposing but there to help. Great communication via WhatsApp and easy pick up and drop off at port. Nice fishing trip to pull in nets with Issac and boat tour of community all included. Authentic stay on reed island 😊

Nothing

This is an experience Hotel, something entirely different. Given that, it is superb experience. It is managed by Isaac and his family and he does everything to introduce you into the way of life of the Uros. We went out in one of his fishing boats, a magically experience gliding through the Dottore reads, listening to the sounds of birds and experiencing the calm of that Lake. In the evening he made a meal for us, in the morning, breakfast. Both were great. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a bit of luxury within a very authentic setting. The pickup and drop off to the pier works very well, the trip is about 30 minutes.

As mentioned, this is an experience Hotel. The room gets cold at night - although there was a heater provided - and the room is very hot during the day due to the large Windows providing The view.
