“Wonderful experience”
+Henry and Maryluz were wonderful hosts. Meals were great and we enjoyed getting to know the Amantaní island with Henry as he showed us the two ceremonial sites and main square. The room was cozy and comfortable, despite the chilly evening weather.

+We enjoyed our visit and stay with Henry and Mariluz. We were warmly welcomed and guided to the Amantani Lodge. We stayed 2 nights. On the first night, Henry guided us up to see Pachatata and Pachamama at sunset which was very beautiful. The next morning we followed the camino around the island which is 10km and took us just over 3 hours (No toilets or shops). There is good time to do nothing at the Lodge. 'Descansar!' We ate all our meals at the Lodge which did us nicely. We travelled there from Puno by Uber to the port next to Playa Chifron. Then the ferry across. On the return, we took a taxi from Playa Chifron up to Capachica and then a collectivo back to Puno. Both methods are fine. It's good for the hosts to get booking.com reservations as booking through an agent in Puno takes much more commission. This is from my own research. Oh, and shower was nice and hot with good flow.

“Calm, quiet with unmatched views and perfect hospitality - a real highlight of our Peru trip”
+An absolute gem for those looking to go off the tourist trail and find some real peace and solitude. Speaking Spanish is essential here but the hosts are so lovely you'll have a great time in any case. The island is quiet, pedestrianised and has two tiny shops. Excellent for slowing down and appreciating what Titicaca has to offer. The food is simple but delicious (not included in the Booking price). The hikes to Pachamama and Pachatata are fantastic and Henry even accompanied us the entire way. I would recommend staying two nights to really get the most out of the island. The final morning we were taught how to make the local bracelets and even made some ourselves as well as dress up in the local outfits for a quick photoshoot. Most of the rooms have excellent views of the lake and have their own bathroom with solar heated hot water (in the afternoons).
−The only way to reach the island is via one of the tourist boat trips which take a while and requires a visit to the touristy Uros floating reed islands where you will be forced to buy souvenirs. Once you arrive at Amantani you have a steep hike up with your luggage to Henry's so beware if you have suitcases. The rooms have no indoor heating so pack for the cold as at night it can be near freezing. The island has spotty internet and the rooms don't come with any wifi. Also there are no ATMs on the island so make sure you have all the cash you need before you arrive such as for paying for your meals.

“Warmest welcome on Amantaní - unforgettable stay with Mariluz and Henry”
+We loved how welcoming Mariluz, Henry and their son Rudy were. We had the wonderful opportunity to get to know them during meal times and all the activities they shared with us (hiking, weaving, etc). The food itself was so fresh, varied and delicious. We had a very relaxing time on the island and would not hesitate to recommend this experience to anyone going to Peru. Make sure to stay for at least two nights to be able to fully relax and enjoy. Do be ready for cold evenings but the warm blankets and hot water bottle provided made the sleep so cozy. This is a truly special opportunity to learn about life on Amantaní - we will never forget it.

+Our stay on Amantaní was honestly one of the most special experiences we’ve ever had. From the moment we arrived, the hosts welcomed us like family. They went out of their way to make us feel at home, sharing delicious homemade meals, stories, and little moments that made the whole stay feel incredibly personal. It didn’t feel like we were guests at all, but more like we were part of their family for those days. Everything was so full of heart, and that’s what made it unforgettable. We left feeling so grateful for the experience and the connection we shared. If you’re visiting Amantaní, staying here is something really special 🤍

“It was heavenly. The island is far away from the tourist world it’sa haven with a fascinating interplay between traditio”
+It’s beautiful. Whitewashed walls with boiganveille spilling over. Our room looked over the Lake which of course is vast and a total blue (on sunny days). Our room was spotless with tiled floors and plate glass windows (which open!) And had touches of local arts , embroidered bed runners. The dining area was just steps away and was always welcoming with plates of steaming food carefully prepared by our host, Mariluz
−There’s a fairly steep path up from the ferry dock. It was too hard for me with my luggage. But again Mariluz came to the rescue , and carried my bag up for me, effortlessly. Other than that goat path there was really nothing wrong

+Nous avons passé un merveilleux séjour chez Henri et Mariluz, qui nous ont accueillis très chaleureusement sur l’île d’Amantani. Henri a pris le temps de nous faire découvrir l’île et ses temples, tout en nous expliquant avec passion la culture et les traditions locales. Une visite très intéressante et enrichissante ! Les repas étaient délicieux, la chambre très confortable et l’accueil vraiment exceptionnel. Une belle expérience authentique que nous recommandons vivement à tous ceux qui souhaitent découvrir Amantani et partager un moment privilégié avec ses habitants. Un grand merci à Henri et Mariluz pour leur gentillesse et leur hospitalité !

+מאמא מירולז מקסימה וחמה - הכינה לנו 3 ארוחות טעימות ביום ודאגה לכל צרכינו. האי מטריף ביופיו, החדרים מקסימים עם נוף ישיר לאגם. אין יופי כזה. האי אותנטי, בפלאזה אנשים רוקדים בתלבושות המסורתיות שלהם. חלום.
