Casa de Jake: Private Pool, A Hikers Dream.

EmilioRating, 5 stars1 month ago
It was one of the most beautiful and relaxing weekends we had. In the large bed you sleep very well and this shower is a dream. Everything is very clean and you feel very comfortable and safe. The best part is the private pool. It is such a luxury and we were able to recharge a lot and recover. A really nice house with lots of details and a great host. I'm sure we'll be back. Thank you

Gorgeous Cozy House inside a Condo

Gabriella BriaRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Ana has a beautiful home which has been accessible for my wheelchair based father and elderly mother, with all flat entrances and accessible showers and no stairs which can be a rarity in Mexico especially Ajijic. This is the third occasion my parents have stayed with her due to their comfort with the space. It is well decorated, modern and comfortable. Ana was proactive in providing entry instructions making it easy for my folks with their early AM arrival. We had a few miscommunications due to myself personally not having the airbnb app installed during the stay and some linguistic overlaps, but she resolved any of our concerns promptly and was very reasonable with any solutions or accommodations. It is on the pricier side for Ajijic, but offered unique value for our situation and needs. It is not a central location to downtown but peaceful, welcoming and comfortable especially if you spend more time at the Airbnb. Bring your own streaming logins for movies etc Recommend overall

Casa Cuba - Spectacular lake and mountain view

DannyRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Casa Cuba was beautiful. The view is incredible and pool is so refreshing. The house is huge, had a great grill and kitchen. The upstairs refrigerator made hanging out all day in the pool so easy. Elsa and her team recommended so many good things and were so friendly. Our whole group had the best time.

Stunning Lake View Condo Ajijic

Leticia PaulinaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
The apartment is beautiful, it has everything you need to have an amazing time, very clean. I liked the location. The only thing is that the pool is freezing, it's not used to the fullest, but there is a jacuzzi that helped balance it out because there were almost no people. When all the apartments are occupied, I hope they put heating in the pool to take advantage of it.

Enjoy A/C in the Queen's Suite at Inn Ajijic

HollyRating, 5 stars9 months ago
"The Queen's Suite" is well named. It featured the most spectacular looking and one of the most comfortable beds I've ever slept on, beautiful brick detailing in the walls and ceiling, and a striking chandelier and artwork. And thanks to the tall balcony windows--architecturally interesting in their own right--I woke to lush greenery every morning and could listen to birdsong every late afternoon. I stayed a week during the wet season, so I relaxed to the nightly sound of rainstorms. (Make sure you close the windows!) I also appreciated the A/C, given the humid August weather. I would definitely stay there again. And Harold was a great host. Ask him about the mural on the exterior wall!

Beautiful view of Lake Chapala. Private rooftop.

PaulinaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
The place is super quiet, ideal for relaxing. It was clean, it had everything you needed to avoid leaving the place. The internet reception was a bit slow but it's understandable for the area, we never ran out of internet, it was just a bit slow. From then on, everything was excellent, the local workers were super friendly and Viviana was very attentive. I would definitely come back 🙌🏼

Casa Maria

The only thing I can say is that we had to pay extra to park in the premises and there was no a/c. It was pretty hot so that was uncomfortable at night to sleep.

Your guide to Ajijic

All About Ajijic

Set on the north shore of Lake Chapala and nestled in the Sierra Madre Mountains, Ajijic is known for its low-key atmosphere and rustic scenery. Given distinction as a Pueblos Magicos or “Magic Town” by Mexico’s Ministry of Tourism, Ajijic’s uniqueness is felt walking its cobblestone streets lined with colorful buildings, murals, and gardens. To the north, Sierra de San Juan Cosala Park offers hiking trails and waterfall views. Vistas of Lake Chapala, Mexico’s largest body of fresh water, can be taken in while walking the Malecon de Chapala promenade, and be sure not to miss the Danza de la Voladores, a traditional aerial performance, along the way. Boutiques, malls, and markets abound, and many locals congregate at the Lake Chapala Farmers Market every Wednesday for fresh produce. Known for its mix of locals and expats, the area exhibits an array of dining, including taquerias, tequila bars, pizza shops, French restaurants, and Thai cuisine.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Ajijic

While Ajijic is located at a tropical latitude, its mountain elevation gives it a moderate climate with mild temperatures, making it a comfortable destination year-round. The region is warmest between April and June and the rainy season usually lasts from June to October. Ajijic offers an abundance of fiestas and events annually. Carnaval and the Fiesta de San Sebastian are popular events held in January, both of which include traditional parades. The area’s most popular event by far is the National Chili Cookoff, which usually occurs in late February. The annual hot air balloon festival is another local favorite that takes place in November. Teams of participants sponsored by local businesses prepare paper balloons weeks before the event where they are released amid food and beverage vendors.


Top things to do in Ajijic

Ajijic Farmer’s Market

Ajijic’s weekly farmer’s market, still known by its ancient Nahuatl name, tianguis, is filled with vendors selling fresh produce, fish, groceries, and flowers along with stands of prepared food. Taking place every Wednesday morning, the market also features a mix of craft vendors selling local artwork, curios, and jewelry.

Tepalo Waterfalls Hike

Lace up your hiking boots and hit the trail to see the waterfalls at El Tepalo and encounter Ajijic’s namesake — “the place of water.” Along the way, bask in the stunning views of Ajijic and the spectacular Lake Chapala below. The best time to view the waterfalls is during the rainy season, after a few days of heavy rain, as El Tepalo is dry until the rain makes the water flow.

Boardwalk

All the beauty and vibrancy of Ajijic can be found on a stroll along its seaside boardwalk. Dotted with shops, restaurants, and ice cream vendors along with musicians, exercise equipment, and spots to catch golden sunset views, this charming promenade has it all. Visit at different times of day to catch the changing light on the lake.
