Reviews of Casa Del Sol Inn
"I spent 7 weeks in this beautiful place, and the level of service I received was outstanding. The day always started with a wonderful breakfast, and on Sundays, a fabulous brunch is served, complete with live music. I stayed in room 5, which I highly recommend. The bed was great, the bathroom large and luxurious. And you will have access to a communal kitchen! Elizabeth the innkeeper has assembled a great staff, who are helpful and responsive. They go out of their way to accommodate personal needs, and I felt pampered, to say the least. Plus, there are frequent events here: wine tastings, dance and music performances, even receptions for local artists. Treat yourself to this beautiful place: you won't regret it!" - Patricia W.

"Elizabeth and the staff go above and beyond to ensure each of their guests have a great time. The food is prepared fresh daily by their own chef, and the gardens professionally manicured. Wonderful place to stay while on business or get away, or anytime while in Ajijic. Will be back there again, soon." - Vic M.

"My husband and I stayed here for 1 1/2 months in November/December. We loved everything about Casa del Sol. The breakfasts were delicious and Sunday brunch was special. The staff went out of their way to make our stay comfortable and were always so friendly and accommodating. Elizabeth, the owner, and Alysia, the administrator, made us feel like family. Happy hour at the bar gave us the opportunity to meet other guests and neighbours. There were also special meals and events at the hotel while we were there to keep things interesting. The comment I heard most often when new people would come through was “what a beautiful hotel!” or as I overheard a little girl of about 7 say, 'muy buena casa!'" - Lydia K.
