Magri Turismo's delightful adobe cottages are set above pre-Inca terraces facing
snow-capped Illampu. They are authentically ecological with solar-powered showers, sun-
powered hot-boxes for heaters and Aymará thatched roofs. La Estancia is a 15-minute
walk from Yumani.

About 300m
north of Yumani proper, this top choice has lovely grounds, simple (but workable) rooms
- we like
número
3 the best - funky carved-wood bedstands and remarkably low ceilings.
Work is underway to build new larger huts. The solar-heated water is good all night long.
The restaurant is highly recommended.

Perched on the hill leading into town from the dock, these
simple adobe bungalows afford great views and have 24-hour hot water. The beds are nice
and soft.

On the promontory on top of the hill, this friendly option has good views from most
rooms (number 14 is awesome), clean sheets and a nice terrace. The rooms with bath-
rooms are much better, and the Andean textiles add a nice touch. Passive solar heating in
the cabins helps keep you warm at night. They have a serious bug problem in the garden
areas.
