Uros Titicaca Uta Lodge

Very friendly, hard working and lovely family! Beautiful view of the Lake!

Staying on the Uros islands is highly recommended. The rate includes amazing breakfast and Dinners cooked for you. As well as boat transportation from Puno to the hotel. The staff arranged a tour for us to Taquile island and the rest of the parts of Uros islands. The cultural experience is amazing. The staff were so nice and attended to our every need. You won't get a chance ti stay on a floating island made of reeds anywhere else so we highly advise you to try it!

The island is beautiful and so is the rental lodge. Huge windows with seating out on a deck where you can enjoy a full view of the lake and mountains. It’s very quiet there and although you can only get there by boat, they are very timely with picking you up and dropping you off. Communication beforehand was very good and they were responsive. We stayed here in the spring and at night it hit 31 degrees F and we had no heat. They did make our bed up with several layers of incredibly warm bedding and gave us hot water bottles, but it was still incredibly uncomfortable to be freezing in our room and in the dining room. Not to be too graphic, but it was so cold that I didn’t want to go to the bathroom because I didn’t want to expose any skin to the air. There is hot water - I took a 5 minute shower under a trickle of water and my husband took a shower about 3 hours later and all water pooped out 2 mins into his shower. There is an outlet in the room powered by solar power - enough to slowly charge electronics and enough to run a portable CPAP machine. They provided meals, which is fortunate since you have no way to access food otherwise. Because of that, we had thought meals were included in the rate, but we were charged 60 soles for a basic dinner of soup, steamed veggies, baked chicken breasts, and tea. Breakfast was included. Be prepared for the matriarch to come into the dining room to sell knitted souvenirs. Owners spoke almost no English.

Lovely hosts! One of a kind experience. Don’t expect any amenities! ;)

Nice family on floating island. Very comfortable beds. Simple but acceptable dinner and breakfast. Enjoyable grass boat ride in evening with nice man. Very cold room. Little to no running water in bathroom. One towel for 5 people. Very expensive boat ride in fine filled boat. None of the staff spoke English. Whan we passed other Uros islands, there appeared to be cultural presentations being given. Nothing like this was offered at this island.

L’établissement a annulé 4 heures avant notre arrivée (famille de 4 personnes ) d’alternative. Nous nous sommes retrouvé a Puño à essayer de trouver un hôtel, nous avons perdu une journée de viste.

Staying on the floating island is a unique experience. Rising sun is beautiful. The hotel and room beautiful and conform to pictures. All people staying have to be ready for cold temperature at night. Hotel staff are family and were vry kind. Only thing is that we could not communicate due to our lack of spanish knowledge. More fun if you are a family or small group because no activities or things to do at night.

Considerando se tratar em uma visita ao povoado de Uros com objetivo de conhecer e conviver com os locais recomendamos a visita a todos. As acomodações são simples, mas muito aconchegantes e limpas. A família local é muito querida e atenciosa.

Eu super recomendo essa pousada. A experiência em pernoitar em uma ilha de totora em Uros foi incrível. E maior ainda foi nossa surpresa com a estrutura dessa pousada e o acolhimento da família que vive lá. Fomos muito bem recebidos, com uma comida caseira maravilhosa, um banheiro privativo amplo e um quarto super bacana, com vista maravilhosa e uma cama confortável e quentinha! Uma estrutura surpreendente, para quem não esperava muita coisa, tendo em vista a localização do lugar! Em cima da água! Dou nota 10 para Uros Titicaca Uta Lodge!

It was a very quiet small island with only our family for that night.The couple and their son tried their best to provide what they can to us although we do not speak Spanish, and they hardly speak English. We enjoyed the home cooking and appreciate their genuine interests in us. The hostess brought out their nice outfit for us to try and to take pictures. It was pretty cold in the evening inside the room although the hot water bottles kept us warm in bed.
