The Best Hotel in Isla del Sol and Isla de la Luna, Lake Titicaca

You will be amply rewarded for your climb up the steps from the port—the higher you go, the cheaper the hostels, or posadas. They are almost all quite basic so, in most cases, you will be trading the bells and whistles of upper-quality hotels for a peaceful retreat with gorgeous views. If you go without a reservation, you'll likely find women or children waiting at Yumani's port to invite you to stay. The north side of the island is more barren but also has attractive options, including a place on the beach itself.
