La Nueva Posada
In every community there is a place that everyone feels comfortable, familiar and safe. Our community is no different and we have La Nueva Posada on Donato Guerra # 9 in Ajijic. Tel. (376) 766-1444 and 766-1344. Email: nuevaposada@prodigy.net.mx and web site: www.hotelnuevaposada.com
The Eager family has been in Ajijic for over 35 years and they ran the Old Posada for over 15 years before they built and opened La Nueva Posada in August of 1992.
La Nueva Posada is home to many Ajijic residents because they trust the consistency of the food, service and Colonial charm of the accommodations. La Nueva Posada has been part of our lives since we moved here 18 years ago from Toronto and for my husband even before that. Recently our son was married at La Nueva Posada and we had many comments saying it was the best wedding they had ever attended. There was unusual rain for February and so the decision was made to have the ceremony and dinner in the beautiful formal dining room.
Michael Eager Jr. and the staff turned the dining room into a magical candlelit wonderland and the bride and groom were thrilled as were the guests. Everything was perfect and it will be a cherished memory for all who attended forever.
We have spent many Thanksgivings (Canadian and American) there along with Christmas Dinners and Gala New Year’s parties. My father, who attended, one such New Year’s Party, said it was the best party he had ever attended.
We have attended weddings, birthday parties, Christenings, quinceaneras (15th birthday parties for girls) and many other occasions which have always been enjoyed by all.
You have your choice of eating in the dining room or the beautiful garden overlooking Lake Chapala and the menu changes often and has an array of Continental and Mexican dishes.
Private parties are also welcomed and catering in your own home is also available. The Executive Chef Lorrain Russo will create a truly delicious gourmet dinner for your guests.
This is a family that is truly inn keeps. There are now three generations running La Nueva Posada from Judy Eager to Michael and Maria Elena Eager to Michael Jr., Wendy, Kristina, and even young Melissa has been pressed into service as an efficiency expert for room inspection.
They have a number of lake view and pool view rooms as well as 4 one and two bedroom villas across the road for longer term guests. Go to their website to find out more about rates and accommodations.
You will be warmly welcomed by the staff and any questions you may have about the area will be deftly and cheerfully answered.
La Nueva Posada will always be our “go to” place. Make it yours too.
Buen Provecho!
