Guest Reviews
- Juliana (8/5): - Acomodação super limpa e aconchegante. Varanda fica bem de frente para o nascer do sol, cama confortável e café da manhã bom. Chuveiro saia pouca água para tomar um banho quente.
- AMANDA C (10/5): - EXCELENTE ALOJAMIENTO LA ATENCION DE LA SEÑORA DOMITILA FUE MARAVILLOSA. PASAMOS MUY BIEN Y TRANQUILOS
- Danielle (10/5): Beautiful views - Really friendly staff, a lovely breakfast and beautiful setting. I appreciated the hot shower and heater for the evenings. Nothing!
- Laurent (10/5): - Charmant hôtel avec une vue superbe sur le lac et l'isla de la Luna.
Bon petit déjeuner, restaurants à proximité. Accueil sympathique.
Cette île est vraiment superbe, très belles balades où l'on peut rencontrer les villageois et les animaux.
Je recommande vivement. RAS
- Mark (9/5): Sehr gemütliches und sauberes Apartment auf einer der wunderschönen Insel Isla de Sol! - Sehr freundliche Gastgeber, die auch bei einem Problem sehr hilfsbereit waren, dass nicht durch sie entstanden ist. Alles sehr sauber und gemütlich. Auch das Frühstück hat mir gut gefallen!
- Cisneros (10/5): -
- Melina (10/5): -
- Francesca (10/5): Tranquilo, maravilloso y inolvidable - Incríble vista, desayuno era muy rico y la gente fue muy amable. Muchas gracias, estoy feliz:) Nada:)
- ScubaRich (7/5): Good overall with some minor room for improvement - The accomodation has a fantastic view onto the lake and certainly offers a great base for exploring the island.
Room - spacious, comfy bed and large bathroom. Shower was luke warm as it uses a small electrical shower head to heat the water but it does the job.
Breakfast - consisted of bread and eggs like most places and was really nice (do note the time is wrong on booking.com as they only serve it between 8am and 9am) - no other food options during the day but other restaurants are within 5 minutes walking.
Owner/Staff - very little English spoken however with the help of Google you'll be fine. They were all very nice and accommodating.
Location - in a good position however top recommendation ... do not bring your big bags (just day bags with essentials) as its a killer walking up from the port to the village via the Inca steps. Trust me - bring small bags only!
Summary - if they sort out room amenities for warmth and comfort then it would be fantastic. It is better than many in the village but just needs a few bits more... A few small changes would make this place even better - I would say its rating is a bit too high vs similar accomodation.
Heating - useless old wall mounted convection heater did nothing to reduce the freezing night time conditions. Tons of blankets on the bed however the room is really cold (so much so I've ended up with man flu). Hot water bottles would have really helped. Note the ventilation into the bathroom is just a hole to the outside that lets all the cold air in so shut the bathroom door at night.
Lack of Amenities - No way of making hot drinks, no glass wear and no means of warming up. By adding a kettle some tea and hot water bottles it would be totally fine!
Payment - watch out like some places in Bolivia they did not use the official bank conversion rate so it cost more than the advertised price!
- fabíola (9/5): -
- Paula (9/5): Recomendable si quieres disfrutar de unas vistas espectaculares. - El alojamiento es espectacular, el desayuno muy bueno, personal muy amable. No salía todo el agua caliente que me hubiera gustado pero era agradable.
- Mariana (10/5): -
- elpatula (10/5): vista al paraiso - la isla en si es maravillosa, el hotel es hermoso al igual que sus habitaciones y sus vissatas. La cama super cómoda, almohadas y calefacción de primera calidad la ducha, es eléctrica y no es fácil conseguir la temperatura adecuada
- Samuel (10/5): Exceptionnel - La vue de la chambre est imbattable! Tout est super propre et très beau!
- Marice (9/5): I would definitely come back to this place - I rented 2 rooms on my stay, they were very large/spacious and clean. Breakfast was a very nice touch and the view was just stunning. The downstairs room I rented needs a bigger or a second heater. The room is big and during winter it got really cold at night and the comforters weren't enough.
- Valeria (10/5): - Un lugar muy acogedor y tranquilo, la atención de su anfitriona de lujo.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Nice, but there are better options - Overall: Nice. But there are better options for a better price.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Vale a pena! - A localização é acima da grande escadaria de quando se entra na parte sul da ilha, o que torna menos cansativo ir e vir. Fui privilegiada com uma vista linda para o lago, tudo muito limpo e bonito, aquecedor, bom café da manhã e equipe gentil. Recomendo.
- GHF (10/5): Beautiful hotel stunning view - We were greeted by name by our hostess, Señora Domitila, as we walked up to Casa de Luna... it is quite a hike from the port with multiple stops to rest due to the altitude. Go straight up and to the right (multiple times) and ask a few people where Casa de la Luna is on the way. The hotel is beautiful with a stunning view of the lake. Our room was large and comfortable. WIFI is spotty but that is the case for the entire island. Breakfast was eggs fruit bread juice and a warm beverage in a large room with a wall of windows looking out at the view. Despite the cold and rainy weather we really enjoyed our stay.
- Michelle (6/5): No frills Isla del sol b&b - Located at the entrance of Yumani, this b&b offered exactly what is said: a clean room with a nice view and a private bathroom and not much else. No electricity on the island the 1st night so no heat and no hot water but plenty of warm blankets. Despite the electrical working the next day, hot water remained elusive.. and internet remained theoretical. Friendly but disengaged staff, room was not “cleaned” during our stay. For $49/night you may be able to do better on the island. Did not disappount but nothing to get excited about. Good, repetitive, breakfast.
- Danny (10/5): Beautiful view - A stunning spot but be aware it's a hike to this hotel and cases would be too heavy so just take a small pack.
- Jimmy (6/5): OK hotel but need improve - The hotel doesnt have any information to how get into, we arrived at night time and was very hard to find it, and no lights or signs we had to ask and walk for an hour to find it. the room wasnt the one i booked, i booked a queen bed room and they give me a triple room, the room has lamps missing, like was the light bulb with cables and the bathroom need to be finished like have no door on the shower. i cant took hot shower and the calefaction at same time, but still have a beatiful view, a really good breakfast and the lady at the hotel was very friendly.
i hope next time i come to the hotel is better.
- Ian (10/5): - 주인아주머니가 정말 친절하게 잘해주시고, 방에서 보는 전망이 아주 좋습니다! 아침식사도 깔끔하고 맛있습니다.
- Aude (6/5): Beaucoup trop cher - - pas d'eau chaude
- pas de pression dans la douche (3 mini filets d'eau)
- pas de wifi
- pas de service (lobby fermé en permanence)
- Fabrice-Yves (6/5): Horrible mastress
Not accomodable tenant - Room was cold
Hot water was not working
Wifi only in the common area. Does not work most of the time
Terrible mastress.
Tenant did not to accommodate us and required us to leave the room at 10 am
Expense for the service
The only positive note is the view from the room
- Marc (8/5): Lovely little hotel with fantastic view - Great hotel, fabulous view, clean room, quiet, clean.
It is pretty high up, so prepare yourself to hike up there with your suitcases once you get off the boat.
This is a cash only place, and there are no ATMs on the island, so make sure to have USD or SOL to pay for the room.
Shower is "electric", probably like the rest on the island. Not the best thing but the view of the room and its cleanliness wins it all.
- Freddy+ Almuth (10/5): Wonderful view and wonderful ambient - We stayed 3 days there and we enjoy every Minute, Mrs. Domitila is a wonderful Person which makes even more easy to enjoy the hospitality she has. The view from our room to the See was beautiful as well as the confort that every room has with all Details. Thank you again Mrs. Domitila, we are going to come bak again
- Verified traveler (8/5): Sensational view - Sensational. Jew, spacious, good bed, great food and super friendly owners
- Verified traveler (8/5): Un placer después de los 10 Km por el camino Inca. - Un placer, el disponer de una habitación y una cama formidable después de la caminata des del norte de la Isla del Sol. recomiendo cenar en el restaurante que se encuentra al frente del Hotel.
- Leandro (8/5): Um paraíso depois de tanto caminhar! - Tive a sorte de pegar um quarto recém construído. Cama excelente. E ainda deu uma pontinha de vista para o Lago. As atendentes são atenciosas. Café da manhã é limitado, mas gostoso. Pena que o acesso é difícil devido a subida do morro desde a praia que se chega pelos barcos. Não tem wifi nas habitações.
- Jeppe (8/5): Spectacular view - An amazing little hotel situated on a moutainside with spectacular views of Lake Titicaca.
Our room had one of the best views I've ever experienced. And it was nice, clean and cosy.
The wifi didn't work though, because they had spend all their data. And there wasn't any hot water.
The familie running the hotel is very nice and I would recommend the place. It is a bit expensive, but the location makes you forget about wifi and hot water.
- Adrian (8/5): Convenient location; stunning views; helpful staff - This B&B-style hotel turned out to be an ideal starting point for exploring Isla del Sol. From the hotel grounds on a clear day, you get a stunning view of Lake Titicaca as well as snow-capped peaks of the cordillera off in the distance. Try going for an early-morning walk—the sunrise can´t be beat! In addition, the hotel is located near the center of Yumani; while it´s a steep hike up from the port, several decent restaurants are a short, easy walk away.
Our room was simple but spotless clean. The bed was comfortable, and the heater unit worked great. Unfortunately, I didn´t get the hot shower I had been hoping for; I was only able to get the water temperature up to lukewarm.
WiFi was available only in the common area and the staff asked us to keep use to a minimum, citing the hotel´s limited monthly data allotment. But this should come as no surprise if you´ve done much traveling in rural Bolivia.
Overall, we were delighted with our stay. We were especially grateful for the extra efforts the staff made to accommodate us—they provided us with useful sightseeing tips, and even prepared an early breakfast for us on the morning of our departure.
- Michelle (6/5): Excellent views in Isle Del Sol - The location, room and views were awesome but there was no wifi which was advertised (they had a dongle in the breakfast room but even that didn't work)
- Jaime (10/5): Relax in front of a wonder of the world - Great
- Charles (10/5): Nice and friendly hotel. - Very nice little hotel with very friendly staff. Clean, good size room with heater and lots of hot water. Low tourist season so dinner not always available but lots of restaurant options around. Right in the main village.
