Dear traveler, hostel “Las Olas” is placed on a hill side overlooking lake Titicaca. All suites have been individually designed, they provide a maximum comfort and you will find many artistic details for the eye. From your living room area, from your bed and almost from any point of your room you have a perfect view of the lake through the huge window fronts. Each suite has a small kitchen unit, private bath an inside hammock and a fireplace. There is also a little electric heater for your use. All our cabins have their own garden with tables, deckchairs and hammocks. For those who love plants and flowers, you will find an enormous variety of predominantly local species on our extensive grounds. We also provide an outside fireplace and we have a slack line to balance on.

We do a big effort to work very ecological. The cabins are built with a complete heat insulation of polystyrene inside the roof, as well as in the walls below the façade. We preheat the water with big solar panels and then feed it into the electric boiler to guarantee very hot water 24 hours a day. We recycle all our washing machine water with an automatic sprinkler to wet our extensive gardens, and we also collect any plastic or glass bottle left behind to be recycled.

At reception we have little maps of the village and the surroundings for free and we are happy to give you very detailed tourist information.

You can borrow, books in English, French, Spanish and German, as well as some guidebooks about Bolivia, Peru and South America. We also have a guitar, a charango with manual and CD, and an electronic tuner for instruments, as well as some games.

We sell tickets to the island as well as to La Paz and to Puno. We have a daily laundry service.
