Very nice old school resort located in a quiet area of Aciiji on Lake Chapala. Great view of the lake. Two clean swimming pools. Two neighborhoods in opposite directions to explore each with a plaza and one with a Malecon. Meals at the hotel took quite a while to get after ordering but that was the only downside. Return trip to the airport only took a half an hour. Made contact with the taxi driver the evening before departure at the Plaza and he was at the hotel right on time...only $37.00 U.S. to the terminal.
