We loved staying on Taquile island with Celso and his family. We got to experience the island after all the tourists are gone home and enjoy the peace and quiet. I loved the authentic meals that Celso and his wife provided and would recommend the experience to anyone :)

Incredible! Extraordinary experience with a family we ve never forgotten. Everyone should know. The place, a familia, really. I don't have words In spite of our personal difficulties and without knowing each other, you show a deep attention. Thanks for all.

The rooms are simple but absolutely lovely and the hose is very nice with a great view! The family is very nice and really helpful. Absolutely would recommend the island and the family!

Celso family are really friendly. He gave us activities to do, a nice walk on the first day visiting Inca ruins and a great viewpoint for sunset (although his hand drawn map wasn’t too accurate and we got lost a few times!). Another nice walk in the morning to the beach on the other side of the island. Room was better than expected with it being on such a small island. Breakfast and dinner were ok.

I really liked my stay with Celso and his family.. There are in a good position and Celso gave me all the information I needed! It was nice eating together, talking about tradition, he showed me a bit of their culture. Taquile island is lovely! I suggested to spend a night here as well (most tour only pass by)

We found Taquille beautiful, and not 'touristy' at all. Most tourists only stop by for lunch, and life on the island seems to continue more or less unhindered. A lovely, tranquil place to relax. Friendly host and host family seems to have a genuine love for their island and their culture. Even though they provide tourist accommodation we never felt they were putting on a tourist act. This being a homestay, we expected the accommodation to be rustic, but we were very pleasantly surprised by a large, comfortable room and a shared bathroom with hot water. Celso phoned us the morning of our stay to assist with travel arrangements, and when he found we couldn't speak Spanish promptly found an English speaking friend to assist us thus. He seems well known on the island, and provided us with a hand drawn map of things to do and see.

Celso and his family were very welcoming and went out of their way for us to enjoy our stay - he offered very insightful explanations about the island in general, life on the island and everything else we asked about. The property was lovely and well taken care of, and even offered hot water and a shower. We were also offered a hearty dinner (which you have to pay around 10 soles extra) and breakfast the following morning. The service is managed very well by a partner in Puno and communicate via whatsapp, they can help you with booking a ferry to and from the island (for 35 soles per person) and arranging for pick up and drop off to and from the boat.

Lovely service in a great setting. We were met from the boat, taken to the plaza and to a lunch spot. The family is really nice and it is a nice balance between getting an authentic experience with the family and still having your own space. Shower is hot and they can charge devices for you. Would recommend!

Celso and his wife and son were a delight to stay with. Very helpful, yet we had time and space to do our own thing. Our room was cozy and comfortable, the shower was hot and they cooked us a delicious dinner and breakfast.The bathroom facilities were outside the room but were clean and modern. I would definitely recommend them for your stay on Taquile Island!
