ANANA San Rafael | Lake Chapala Home with Terrace & Pool

Summary:

The villa greets you with a serene lakeside setting. The living area opens to terraces overlooking the water—morning light, mountain air, the sound of roosters calling across the shore. Your alberca sits centerpiece to the grounds, framed by mature trees and that perfect view. Four recámaras spread throughout, each with comfort and storage. Four-and-a-half bathrooms with essentials provided. The kitchen is ready: cookware, dishes, coffee maker, everything to gather and cook together. Free parking on premises. Enhanced cleaning practices keep everything fresh. You're steps from a mountain trail that climbs right behind the house, yet the center of Ajijic—restaurants, galleries, shops—is a short walk away. This is where families come to slow down, breathe, and be together by the lake.

Getting Around:

Getting around Ribera de Chapala is straightforward and relaxed. Free parking on the property means your car stays put while you explore. Ajijic center is walkable, a pleasant 10-15 minute stroll that takes you through neighborhood streets lined with bougainvillea and local life. For broader exploration of Lake Chapala region, having a car is helpful—mountain towns like San Antonio Tlayacapan and Jocotepec are short drives. Guadalajara International Airport (Miguel Hidalgo) is approximately 90 minutes away by car via highway 200, the main route connecting the Chapala shoreline to the city. Local colectivos (shared vans) run regularly along the main road if you prefer not to drive. Taxis are available and reasonably priced for trips into Ajijic or surrounding areas. The property's caretaker and staff can arrange transportation assistance and provide guidance on the best routes and timing for local exploration.



Other Things to Note:

Laundry Service (additional cost)
