Love Casa Felicidad

We had a fantastic time in Casa Felicidad! The home was perfect for our stay. We had everything we needed and more. The location is great for exploring around the Lake Chapala area. The property owner, Rex, was very thoughtful with providing information about the home and was quick to respond to our questions. Thank you!

We enjoyed this well appointed home!

Loved it!! The property manager was responsive to our arrival timeframe. The house was spotless on arrival and the maid service was an added plus! The house is well laid out, comfortable and secure. Off-street parking and garage door opener! The kitchen has everything needed for meal prep! Thank you for having dishwashing, laundry and miscellaneous cleaning supplies available. Plenty of room for extended family. Nice roof top decks and courtyard for enjoying Ajijic's eternal spring! We will return!

8/10 Good

Spacious bedrooms, small living room

This house was built as a vacation rental and it mostly works as such. The two second floor bedrooms with balconies and shared bath are fine. There's also a rooftop "mirador." Downstairs MBR and bath also fine. Large dining room table will accommodate 6 guests, but the screened in veranda-like TV room is cramped (can seat 3-4 people at most) and quite chilly in January. Owner says he will glass it in. There are several chimneys but they were not hooked up and would have been most welcome evenings and/or mornings. The kitchen is modern and user-friendly, but the glass hood is dangerous for anyone over 5ft 10. It's almost invisible walking by and I bumped into it several times, That was most irritating. Communication with owner was good. Took a little longer to reach the property manager

Thank you for your review. We have owned this property for a short time and continue to upgrade it. Ajijic can be chilly at times and we have recently installed gas lines to the chimneys and we will be installing gas logs in the fireplaces. We will be adding a rubber bumper to the glass stove vent hood. We are in the process of glassing in the outdoor screened veranda, and new furniture will easily accommodate 6 people. We have also offered to swap furniture by having the kitchen table in the veranda and the veranda furniture/TV in a larger area off of the kitchen. Our goal is to offer a great experience in an outstanding Lakeside location in Ajijic and your comments will help us to do just that. Thank you! Rex

Nicer than the current pics

When we checked in we were surprised that the listing pics (when we booked) seemed to have been taken prior to a major downstairs remodel. We were very pleased with what we saw. A wall has been removed to open up the main rooms downstairs and the kitchen has been remodeled. It makes for a comfortable, spacious, light, open floor plan as you enter. The furniture is comfortable and the unit is well stocked with whatever you need during your stay. The downstairs bed is comfortable, that is the only bedroom with A/C in case you need it. We did not use the 2 upstairs bedrooms, but beware that they do not have window coverings so you are not able to keep the morning light out. You might need an eye mask if that bothers you. Security is good and communication with managers/owner is good as well. The home is located in a neighborhood that is close to the central part of town, walking distance to everything you might need during your stay....restaurants, shops, market etc. It is a quiet neighborhood, but keep in mind that it still is Mexico so you will hear some barking dogs, roosters, music etc. It did not bother us at all, that is just the culture in Mexico. Internet was excellent as was TV reception. All in all we loved the convenience of the home's location and we were very comfortable during our 2 week stay. We would recommend it to others.

Lovely property; easy to work with owner.Enjoyed privacy. Fantastic amenities.Had a bit of an ant problem.Air conditioning or cross ventilation might be good - got stuffy. We understand electricity is expensive, but ac might be cheaper than the fans??Great location for walking in Ajijic. So close to Wednesday market (what a wonderful experience.)Last day, power flicked on and off - water went out - could not even flush toilets.Unit clean, private, easy to access.

Thank you for your review! We enjoy our location close to everything in Ajijic. Ants can be a problem but our property is treated regularly. Many properties do not have air conditioning yet we have AC in the downstairs bedroom to keep our guests comfortable. The issue with the power and water when you departed was due to a tree that fell during the storm the prior evening and crews were repairing the damage. All working now.

Heaven

This place had everything you would need. There was nothing you had to buy. The owners were so friendly and helpful, all the information was there including taxi numbers and places to eat. The pictures did not show how nice it was. Thank you so much for all your help we had so much fun in Ajijic.

Casa Felicidad made our family very happy

From the time we arrived, and through our stay, our 6 person family were comfortable. There was plenty of room for all of us, and the accommodations were pleasant. Having a washer and dryer were a plus, as was the view from the mirador,(upstairs balconey) and the near vicinity to the tinguas (market) and other amenities. As a big group, we were challlenged by the water pressure (take only 1 shower at a time). It was comfortable sleeping under the fans, and we had lots of storage space too. The full kitchen allowed us to prepare meals, and it was a wonderful stay.

Fantastic home and location

We loved, loved, loved everything about this home! It is located in a beautiful neighborhood, close enough to town to enjoy the walk to the plaza and just a few blocks away from the weekly farmers market. We enjoyed the rooftop patios with gorgeous vistas and the enclose patios off of each bedroom. The kitchen was well stocked and fun to cook in! It even has a walk in pantry! The bedrooms had huge built in closets that I am envious of! In short, we lived this home and would love to rent it again! Tricia

Excellent property in a good location, a block from the beach and eight blocks from Colon Street!

Newly painted and decorated with all the modern appliances. Nice courtyard to sit outside and read. Secured and locked entrance from the street for you and your vehicle. Great view from the third floor decks. We recommend this property to any one who requires a 3 bedroom, 2 bath home for a vacation. We had the opportunity to meet the owners who were a very dedicated couple who really cared about our comfort and needs.
