Vip Flotante

An interesting place worth spending the night if you're visiting Lake Titicaca. A lovely and kind hostess. Don’t worry about the cold – the blankets are thick and the hot water bottles help keep it away.

Comfortable accommodations in a great location with the friendly helpful staff.

We had a wonderful stay at VIP Flotante. Lina and Leonardo made us feel very welcome and went out of their way to help us have a wonderful time on the uros islands. The room was very clean and cozy. The decor was very nice and traditional and we had everything we needed to be comfortable. They also cooked us lovely food and even helped us organise some tours. The nights were chilly so they prepared us hot water bottles which was very kind. A wonderful stay and a great way to really get to know the Uros islands!

We liked everything

Wow! I'm so grateful to have spent time in this beautiful place with an amazing family. If you want to see the Uros please do NOT book a tour book night here with Leonardo and Lina instead. There are such lovely people and offer tours themselves so you can discover their culture in a more private way and the money goes directly to a Uros family. We went on a kayak tour and were able to discover the whole village ourselves at our own pace which was great. The room was really comfortable, the view amazing and the food tasty. Lina, Leonardo and their children are great people happy to share about their culture. I feel really privileged to have spent time with them. One thing to note is that they live off grid, you only have USB ports in the room, the water pressure is low and it's a dry toilet. But they have managed to make it really comfortable anyway. We were surprised to even have hot water when we didn't have any in a hotel in town.

I wish we had stayed longer

Once in a lifetime experience! Leonardo, Lina and their children welcomed us into their home and showed us how they live. They arranged all transport for us and we had a great communication via WhatsApp. They showed us around the islands, made us delicious breakfast and dinner, explained about their community and answered all our curious questions. The houses are spacious, the beds are comfortable and the view is truly spectacular. Thank you once again for the hospitality, it was great meeting you!

Care of owners (thanks!!!) and excellent communication via whats up. They explained us how they live and arranged two nice boat trips around Uru islands and to Taquille island, so we were able to see real life of native people. They cooked for us also lunch and dinner, sold water. We could park car in port.

A superb and unusual location literally in the Titicaca sea. The accommodation floats on a reed "island" which makes for an interesting experience. It gives a one a good insight into how the "Urus" people live on the lake and how they cope with everyday life. Good meals provided by the owner and family who also arranged trips around the area. Bear in mind that this is a glimpse into how these friendly people live and not a luxury location. The facilities are basic but very reasonable given the area you're staying in. Hot water bottles and plenty of blankets are provided for the surprisingly cold nights. Plenty of sun cream and protection required for the intense sunshine during the day.

The blankets were warm but heavy!

Staff was perfect

Room was ice cold. Blankets were so heavy, we could not move under them. Some kind of heating should be there
