3 Bedroom Villa in Ajijic
Summary:
Perched at the highest point in Ajijic, San Rafael 3BD offers sweeping Lake Chapala views—you're not on the lakeshore, but above it with the best vantage in town. The living area opens to your private terrace; shared outdoor areas (pool, gardens, hot tub) may be used alongside Galeana, our guest suite for up to two people. Morning light, mountain air, roosters calling from the valley below. Three bedrooms with fresh linens and storage. Three-and-a-half bathrooms with essentials provided. Full indoor kitchen plus outdoor grill kitchen. Free parking on premises. Enhanced cleaning practices keep everything fresh. A mountain trail climbs right behind the house; Ajijic center—restaurants, galleries, shops—is a short walk downhill. This is where families slow down, breathe, and take in the lake from above.
The Space:
The living room and dining area flow onto your private terrace with lake views. Three bedrooms spread across two levels—fresh linens, hangers, and storage in each. Three-and-a-half bathrooms with hot water, essentials, and hair dryers. Full indoor kitchen with cookware, dishes, coffee maker, and gas grill in the outdoor kitchen.

The Neighborhood:
Ajijic / Lake Chapala — San Rafael sits at the town's highest point above the shore, not on the lakeshore. Walk downhill to village restaurants, gallery strolls, and the malecón; mountain trails start half a block behind the house. Lake and Sierra Madre views from the property.

Getting around is effortless. The property is walkable to central Ajijic in 10-15 minutes on foot, where you'll find local buses, taxis, and ride-shares readily available. Secure parking is provided on the grounds if you're driving. The nearest major airport is Guadalajara International Airport, approximately 90 minutes away by car, offering connections throughout Mexico and beyond.
