A unique lakeside lodge with otherworldly 360-degree views, Titilaka stands on a private peninsula on the shores of Lake Titicaca and boasts views across infinite skies, shimmering waters and distant snow-capped peaks. Far off the beaten track in an area shared with the local indigenous Aymara community, the property is enclosed by pristine lakes and four acres of grounds.
Its 18 lake-facing suites, offering massage showers, complimentary minibars and underfloor heating, are decorated in a style that blends contemporary bright aesthetics with local textiles and bright flowers. With a full programme of excursions included in the stay, guests are invited on insightful nature, local archaeology and living history tours.
The property operates the first nautical sports facility on Lake Titicaca, enabling guests the unique experience of sailing at an altitude of more than 12,000 feet above sea level.
Whether navigating in Canadian canoes or sunfish sailboats, sailing days can take you from nearby beaches to masses of totora reeds. A truly serene water-top experience, these nautical adventures allow guests to discover and observe a multitude of ecosystems, wildlife and plant species.
The lodge is dedicated to sustainability, responsible practises and social commitment. The vast majority of staff hail from the surrounding villages, which in turn has provided a welcomed boost to their economy, and Titilaka also works with a non-profit organisation that works to support communities around the lake.
Titilaka itself is decorated with handicrafts that have been produced by the talented artisans, one of many gestures that have strengthened the relationship between the lodge and locals.
The joy of a stay at Titilaka is not just that its excursions and experiences are on an all-inclusive basis, but that these daily outings are often in areas where no other tourists are found.
Aside from the lake-top experiences, head out on hiking and biking adventures through the surrounding landscape, visit the residents of indigenous communities, peruse markets for authentic handicrafts and explore fascinating local ruins in the company of expert guides.
The property has featured in National Geographic, Vanity Fair, Conde Nast Traveller, The Telegraph and Eco Friend, amongst a number of other respected travel and lifestyle publications.
Titilaka is located at the end of a peninsula in a quiet rural area on the shores of Lake Titicaca, with stunning views all around. It is a 40-minute drive from the nearby town of Puno and its train station, and one-and-a-half hours from the closest airport at Juliaca.
Some of the wonderful places to stay that we frequently recommended.
Positioned on the shores of Esteves Island and benefiting from 360-degree views of Lake Titicaca, Hotel GHL Hotel Lago Titicaca showcases its unapologetic devotion to the surrounding landscape by gracing the majority of its walls with huge picture windows.
Situated on a private island that rises from Lake Titicaca, Suasi Island Hotel is accessed by a four-hour sailing from Puno on a navigation that routes via Uros and Taquile islands, allowing guests to meet the unique communities that call this Peruvian lake their home. Constructed from stone, adobe and totora reed, the property perches on a steep hillside of flowered terraces.
Perched in meticulously landscaped grounds and with an undulating hilly backdrop, Casa Andina Premium Puno is positioned at 3,800 metres above sea level in front of Lake Titicaca. Offering spectacular views over the lake and privileged boardwalk access to a lakeside pier, the property even has its own private train station. Its 46 well-appointed rooms and suites are bright and modern, with some offering breath-taking views over the lake from balconies that absorb panoramic views from sunrise to sunset. The on-site restaurant features large windows with views towards the water, and a cosy bar area with an open fire provides an ideal spot for a sip of Pisco at the end of an active day.
