| We had an enormous time in this beautiful place!! The house is so tastefully furnished, the view is amazing and relaxing and there is a great variety of restaurants, shops and galleries closed by. The owner is very kind and helpful and we didn't have to do much to enjoy our vacation - just arrive and seat on the terrace with a good drink looking at the sunset. we'll be back!!! |

We had a fabulous stay in the lovely Mexico Sunrise home in Ajijic. The comfortable home is decorated nicely, great colors and all the creature comforts one desires.The home is well appointed and very clean. We especially enjoyed the patio area to relax and read, or to enjoy a meal outside. The view from the upstairs bedroom is quite nice and the grounds are attractive and restful. We especially liked that it was such a short jaunt to downtown.
A great place to relax and enjoy the Mexican way of life.

We have just returned home from an enjoyable 2 1/2 months of warmth and comfort in Ajijic and Sunrise House. We can only echo the positive comments submitted by previous guests. The house and garden provided an oasis in the midst of a truly "Mexican" experience.
Thanks to Leo, the maids and gardeners, all aspects of our stay earned top marks. It is easy to have a "smile on your face" while there. |

We have been to Mexico several times
and stayed at resorts. After spending
one week in Ajijic in 2008, we decided to return for a longer period and were fortunate to secure the Sunrise House for over a month. What a pleasant experience!
The welcome goodies, the warm greeting from our knowledgeable host Leo, all the valuable information about the village, the fully equipped kitchen,and the beautifully designed and decorated house guaranteed a most enjoyable vacation. The location was perfect and enabled us to actually walk around the village and discover how the Mexicans conduct their everyday lives without all the luxuries that we have become accustomed to and demand. I must say that I felt safer in that little village than I do at home in a very secure condo development.
If you enjoy pets, then you can share Leo's while living at the Sunrise House!
Bogart is a wonderfully gentle and friendly "mutt" and his daily visits provided much enjoyment. Be careful not to get attached to him.
We will be back. Thanks, Leo. |

We have been to Ajijic many times, but this visit was our best yet due in large part by the graciousness of our host and the ambiance of the Sunrise House. Having a bottle of wine waiting at our arrival and a refrigerator stocked with first day supplies were but two of many touches that made this stay unique and memorable.
Deciding where to eat can be one of the most stressful decisions you have to make while on vacation. Leo's compiled listing of area eateries was, in and of itself, worth the price of admission. Encouraged by his comments and recommendations, we now have a new list of favorite places to eat in Lakeside.
Waking at the first light of dawn (this home is accurately called the Sunrise House) at the insistence of the neighborhood chorus of roosters, you are assured of maximizing your time in this most wonderful environment. You really don't want to oversleep!
Thanks, Leo, for an unforgettable experience.

What a dynamite place to kick back, relax, shop,
walk, and actually enjoy a vacation - Thank you,
Leo! We met with old friends and thanks to Leo's
local connections met several new ones. Leo's
friendly pooch, Mr. Bogart, was a welcome visitor.
Ajijic is a wonderful and most amiable community.
We shopped locally and prepared most of our meals
in the well-furnished kitchen. The Sunrise House
was just lovely and very comfortable and that made
our week most enjoyable. We will be back!

| I had a wonderful trip to Ajijic thanks to our gracious host Leo. The Sunrise House is more than you can imagine. Beautifully decorated, superb setting, great weather and perfectly situated near the town with it's small markets for seafood, produce, bakery (pan) and anything you might need. The kitchen is totally complete to prepare your gourmet meals or walk a few blocks and dine at one their many excellent and affordable restaurants in town. I am already planning my next trip to Ajijic and my stay at the Sunrise or Jewel House. |

Our winter stay here was wonderful from the moment we arrived. Our hosts were gracious with food in the frig,a welcome wine and cheese, and lots of answers to our questions.
This is an ideal location to explore the area of Ajijic without a car. We were in the midst of real Mexico with all the sights and sounds of a village community.
Fresh fruit and veggies were purchased at the local fruit market or Wednesday market and we became familiar with numerous small business owners within a block of the house. A daily visit to the bakery for fresh croissants and bolillos was a delight, and our Mexican neighbours were friendly. With limited Spanish, we communicated using universal gestures, and befriended several families and children. Each day brought special moments for both of us.
The house is a home, with all the nicities, including a great maid and gardeners.
This home was a perfect choice for us as newcomers to Ajijic, and managing without a car trimmed waistlines, and gave us the experience of riding local buses, and becoming quite efficient getting around the community. We give this vacation full marks. |

| Our stay at your casita was lovely. The softly lit concave ceiling in the bedroom, the high-count bedding and perfect mattress made for sweet dreams. Your house instructions and town suggestions were very helpful. The casita was a comfortable and beautiful sanctuary during our stay in Mexico. Thank you for the bug spray and all the little details. |

| Awakened each morning by the soft pink and gold sky , we felt perfectly at home in a foreign country. Our host and hostess made every attempt to exemplify that feeling. We were in old Mexico , but in a new Mexican home--secure, cozy and comfortable. We were able to be as involved in the village as we wished and walk everywhere. A perfect home away from home. |
