Colibri Orange

Colibri Orange is a small senior living residence in Ajijic, Jalisco, located on a cobblestone street in a hillside neighbourhood surrounded by family homes. Operated by Colibri Residences, the same family-run organisation behind Colibri Blue in San Juan Cosalá, the home accommodates a maximum of five residents. Designed for older adults who remain largely independent, it offers a residential setting with personalised support, private rooms, a swimming pool and opportunities for residents to maintain their existing routines and activities outside the home.

Independent Living and Personalised Care

Colibri Orange accommodates older adults who remain largely independent but prefer to have meals and additional support available within a residential environment.

The home focuses on helping residents maintain their usual routines rather than organising daily life around a fixed institutional schedule.

Residents can continue taking part in activities outside the property. One resident keeps a car at the residence and continues driving around Ajijic independently, while another receives transportation to a sporting activity three times a week.

With a maximum capacity of five residents, Colibri Orange operates as a small residential home, with care adapted to individual preferences and levels of independence.

Habitaciones y alojamiento

Colibri Orange has resident rooms spread across two levels, accessible by a staircase and an elevator.

Three rooms are located on the ground floor, providing easier access for residents with mobility needs. These rooms overlook the swimming pool and surrounding mountains.

Upstairs rooms have views that include glimpses of Lake Chapala.

Rooms are spacious, with individual bathrooms and walk-in closets.

The residence also has a garage available for residents who continue driving independently.

Communal Areas and Facilities

The property resembles a private family home, with a front building containing the kitchen, dining area and living room.

The living room includes two couches, a television and a small library.

Large glass surfaces and an open interior layout allow natural light into the communal spaces and provide views of the swimming pool.

The kitchen has a large central island where a staff cook prepares residents’ meals.

Swimming Pool and Outdoor Spaces

A swimming pool occupies much of the property’s outdoor area and is visible from the main communal spaces.

A gentle ramp connects the common area to the pool, while a shaded table provides outdoor seating.

The property also offers views of the surrounding mountains, with some upstairs rooms overlooking parts of Lake Chapala.

Alimentos y vida cotidiana

Meals are prepared on-site by a staff cook in the residence’s shared kitchen.

Residents have access to a communal dining area and living room, while retaining their independence and individual daily routines.

The residence’s approach allows older adults to continue activities beyond the property, with personal support incorporated into their everyday lives.

Mobility and Accessibility

Colibri Orange has an elevator and staircase connecting its two residential levels.

Three ground-floor rooms provide easier access for residents with mobility needs, while a gentle ramp leads from the main communal area to the swimming pool.

The garage is available for residents who continue to drive.

Alojamiento apto para mascotas

Colibri Orange is pet-friendly, allowing residents to bring a longtime animal companion when moving into the residence.

This forms part of the home’s approach to maintaining familiar routines and personal independence.
