We
stayed
2
nights
in
the
resort
in
Sep,
2023.
Overall
it
was
a
fantastic
experience
and
I
highly
recommended
the
resort
to
people
who
want
to
visit
Lake
Titicaca.
#
Location
The
resort
is
NOT
in
Puno
but
further
south.
It
is
about
1
hour
from
Puno
and
2
hours
from
Juliaca
airport.
The
resort
does
provide
complimentary
train
station
/
airport
pickup
&
drop-off,
but
it
does
add
some
overhead
when
getting
in
&
out
of
the
resort.
Being
in
a
remote
location
also
has
benefits:
(1)
The
resort
is
on
the
beach,
and
there
is
a
lagoon
nearby.
The
lake
view
is
fantastic
and
environment
is
very
serene.
We
enjoyed
every
minute
in
the
resort.
(2)
The
resort
is
about
45
mins
boat
ride
from
Taquile
island.
We
took
the
day
trip,
and
it
took
90
mins
from
the
resort
to
the
floating
island,
90
mins
from
the
floating
island
to
Taquile,
and
45
mins
from
Taquile
back
to
the
resort.
So
in
total
225
mins
boat
ride
can
take
you
to
both
floating
island
and
Taquile.
I
guess
it
is
a
similar
amount
of
effort
if
you
want
to
visit
both
the
floating
island
and
Taquile
from
Puno.
#
Room
&
Facility
The
room
is
spacious
and
well
equipped.
Our
room
has
the
superb
lake
view,
and
I
was
able
to
watch
the
sunrise
from
the
bed.
It
is
also
very
quiet
at
night
and
we
had
good
sleep
during
our
stays.
The
resort
also
has
many
common
areas
with
comfortable
sofas,
couches,
and
great
views.
We
spent
some
time
enjoying
coffee,
tea,
and
snacks
in
the
common
areas.
#
Service
The
service
is
top
notch.
The
great
experience
started
from
the
train
station
pick-up,
where
the
resort
not
only
provided
a
driver,
but
also
an
English-speaking
guide.
They
also
accommodated
us
to
visit
a
local
pharmacy
to
buy
some
supplies.
The
van
is
also
well
equipped
with
hot
towels
and
bottle
water.
The
excursions
were
also
great.
We
took
a
8-hour
boat
tour
to
visit
the
floating
island
and
Taquile.
The
resort
has
their
own
boats,
captions,
and
guides,
and
all
excursions
seem
to
be
in
small
groups
(~5
guests
with
1
caption
and
1
guide).
In
the
floating
island
and
Taquile
island,
we
had
similar
demonstrations
from
the
local
people
(as
other
larger
groups),
but
the
experiences
feel
more
VIP
due
to
the
smaller
group.
We
had
lunch
in
a
local
restaurant
on
Taquile.
The
view
was
fantastic,
overseeing
both
sides
of
the
island.
Being
vegetarians,
we
were
initially
concerned
about
the
food,
but
it
seemed
that
the
resort
prepared
and
transported
the
food
to
the
restaurant,
and
thus
the
food
quality
is
very
similar
to
the
resort.
#
Food
We
are
vegetarians.
The
restaurant
is
a
la
carte
style
and
they
changed
a
part
of
the
menu
every
day.
They
have
plenty
of
vegetarian
options
for
breakfast,
lunch,
and
dinner.
The
food
is
quite
delicious
and
delicate,
very
comparable
to
the
best
restaurants
in
larger
cities
such
as
Cusco.
