Question
How hot is it in Ajijic during the Easter season? How difficult is it to get accomodation  in a bed and breakfast or hotel for a week at that time?

Answer
Hola Peter, temperatures usually in low 80s at Easter time, in the sun. Cross the street to the shade and the temperature drops and the humidity is low.

Ajijic has a Passion Play every Easter and thousands come to the village to partake. I would book early.

Recommendations:

The Nuevo Posada  http://www.mexconnect.com/MEX/rest/nueva/posada.html

and Hotel Real de Chapala are nice
hotels, within walking distance of the village.

B&Bs give more personal service and the owners can answer a lot of your questions.

I recommend:

Villa Eucaliptos, Ajijic-email mrram@laguna.com.mx  Wonderful rooms, garden and pool. Close to centre of village. Mike and Ralph know everything about this area.

Swan Inn, Ajijic -email  swaninnajijic@hotmail.com
       -website  www.mexconnect.com/amex/swab
Wonderful rooms,quiet restful gardens,pool. Next door to Lake Chapala Society.Close to centre of Ajijic.

El Sueno Guest Suites, San Antonio Tlayacapan (short 20 min walk to Ajijic)-email connie@laguna.com.mx website www.elsueno.ca  Finished suites, rv parking.

Los Artistas, Ajijic owned by former Sec'y of Treasury for Alaska. email Kent at artistas@laguna.com.mx


Hope that helps,

I lived full time in the Chapala-Ajijic area for 7 years, and other areas 5 years. During that time I provided information (health care, working papers, immigration, driving, cost of living, insurance, culture, divorce in Mexico, trusts vs direct deed,etc) to help people make the decision about whether the area was right for them, either full or part-time. I live legally in Mexico.
