TITILAKA PUNO
*****

It takes 45 minutes to get from Puno to the property, which is really breathtakingly beautiful, and it is close to abundant baby farm animals and vibrant communities of colorfully dressed people. It has a minimalist exterior design and the service is exclusive and unmistakably five star. Titilaka is pure paradise for honeymooners, photographers and bird watching enthusiasts. Titilaka has managed to seamlessly merge the rich influences of the surrounding Andean community with an idyllic upscale experience, while respecting its undisturbed natural beauty as a carbon-neutral property. About half the hotel's staff was hired from the local villages and their warm Andean hospitality is evident.

The 18-room boutique property is situated at 12,500 ft. The lobby feels more like a comfortable, yet chic living room, where guests engage in easy conversation, imbibe daily at a very civilized cocktail hour, or make use the hotel's Mac computer and free Wi-Fi. Whether you opt for room service or to dine in the restaurant, there will always be a creative Andean cuisine paired with wines of varying caliber from Chile, Argentina and Peru.

Rooms are modern, airy and bright; decor is punctuated with fuchsia hues, which is the color of the Incan Kantu flower. Sweet-dream-inducing king-sized beds kitted in crisp white linens face floor to ceiling windows. These have spectacular lake views, with the rooms aptly dubbed dusk or dawn, depending upon the direction the room faces. Complimentary mini bars boast red, white and sparkling wines, as well as an assortment of sodas and snacks. Some rooms have bathtubs, others are shower-only.
