They really know the ins and outs of living in Mexico, have built their own homes, speak Spanish and have traveled extensively through out Mexico. The Gutman's can answer your questions about life in 'the village' and really understand why so many North Americans call this slice of paradise- home. National Geographic rates Ajijic as one of the finest climates in the world!

The Mexican Jewel House and The Mexican Sunrise House are beautiful homes built by Mexican architects and designed by Mexican artists. Both homes are located on Angel Flores Street in the prestigious Las Salvias area. Every paint color, all the Mexican tiles, each stained glass window and the fountains were detailed by local 'maestros'. The gardens are lovingly cared for and the homes are kept impeccably clean and fresh. The beauty of these homes is that they will delight you with Mexican flair: arches throughout, high ceilings, terraces, hand painted furniture and lots of space to enjoy your days..

The Pan (bakery) is just 3 minutes from your door and you can smell the breads and rolls baking as you walk up the little alley. Folks drive for miles for his freshly baked goods, but our guests just pop over every morning for warm goodies - location, location, location!
