Casa del Sol Inn

Very nice and clean hotel in Ajijic. Excellent service with very good breakfast/brunch. The bread is so good, also the Bloody Mary's. Prices are decent. Hotel has just 9 rooms. One pool, couple of terraces and a bar. Coupl of blocks from the main Ajijic plaza.

Casa del Sol Inn is a beautiful and cozy Inn, adorned with wonderful artwork. Elizabeth and her staff were wonderful, so friendly and accommodating. Breakfast is included with your stay and everything was delicious and filling! The rooms are beautifully decorated and comfortable. The only minor inconvenience was the water from the shower. Most times it was fine, but once in a while the water would trickle. The Inn has a couple areas where we could gather with our friends. We also met other people staying at the Inn and quickly became friends. The pool was a nice size and always at a comfortable temperature. It was also nice to be centrally located in the town of Ajijic, with a short walk to many restaurants, bars, stores, the plaza, and the Malecon along Lake Chapala. The staff would arrange rides or excursions for us.

Well-situated in this charming and quiet town, the art of and the colorful plantings in this hotel echo what you will see as you stroll the cobblestone streets. Breakfasts change daily. The kindness of the staff is perfect. You are in the center of the town, a few minutes walk to the lake, and near many excellent restaurants and blocks from the plaza. I love church bells, and thrilled to hear them from the church of Saint Andrew every morning. I visited over Thanksgiving, which is the festival for this saint. Processions! and fireworks!

High touch service in a beautiful and relaxing boutique inn is what you get at Casa del Sol Inn. From the moment we arrived everything was taken care of including private round trip transfers from the airport. Elizabeth arranged for us to go horseback riding and we were picked up at the front door with the horses ready for our ride. The sumptuous breakfast will energize you for your daily exploration and activities. The portions were ample and we never needed lunch, just an early dinner. The hotel showcases artists’ paintings and sculptures. Another artist is Efra, the bartender, who makes a killer margarita and great conversation. The rooms have a huge shower, comfy beds and pillows, TV and WiFi. Just outside our room was a courtyard with a pool and beautiful wall of flowers attracting hummingbirds. You’ll feel like you’ve escaped to an oasis with lush tropical plants indoors and out. The rooftop terraces gave stunning views and quiet places to read, journal and nap. From pampering services including a rooftop massage and a lay down mani-pedi it was no problem. Elizabeth made appointments on our behalf. Like to golf? 5 minutes away is Chula Vista Country Club which is an experience not to be missed. The town of Ajijic is very walkable in sneakers and supportive sandals. Heels, including wedges aren’t recommended as the streets are literally made from stones. The trailhead to el Tepalo is nearby. Stroll lakeside on the malecón only about a 5 minute walk from the hotel. If you’re a foodie, appreciate peace and quiet and like art this is an excellent hotel for you!

I went to Casa Del Sol in Ajijic for Sunday brunch after meeting the lovely manager a couple of days prior. The brunch was fabulous and far exceeded expectations. Not only was the food delicious, but the live musicians provided such a lovely atmosphere. The sculptures, art, and light fixtures were breathtaking. An extra bonus was taking a tour of the property. It is very cosmopolitan. I am returning at the end of May and have reservations to stay here for a week.

Both my wife and I loved staying at Casa del Sol. Loved the breakfast which as more than we could eat, the pool was very comfortable and there was ice in the community freezer. The staff was friendly and we felt very welcomed. Our room #2 was on the street but was very quiet and away from the afternoon sun. It is close to the Jardin and several good quality restaurants just a few blocks away. I am very observant when visiting BnB's as I have one in Mexico that has been rated in the top 1% "Best of the Best" for 5 years so do trust my review as someone with expiernce in BnB's.
