Casa Dragonfly

Casa Dragonfly is a boutique assisted living home for four residents in Riberas del Pilar, a Lakeside town sitting between Chapala and San Antonio Tlayacapan, a short drive from Ajijic. What sets it apart is serious, professional care in a small, warm home, with real medical peace of mind close by.

The property itself is easy to live in. There are ramps throughout, handrails in the bathrooms, and other accessibility features that let residents move safely and hold on to their independence. Three home-cooked meals are served each day, and residents can spend their time in the gardens or by the pool, which give the home a calm, green, lakeside feel. There is on-site parking for residents and visiting family.

A licensed nurse on the team oversees the care of every resident, and the home is fully compliant with Civil Protection (Protección Civil) requirements and holds its COFEPRIS health license, with ongoing training for the staff. Not every home in the area can say the same, and for families moving a loved one from abroad, that documentation and oversight matter. Should anything happen, hospitals are less than ten minutes away.

Residents who want their own space can choose a suite-style room with a separate living area and its own kitchen, so they can keep their routines, cook when they like, and feel genuinely at home. Those who prefer something simpler can settle into a private room with an ensuite bathroom.

One small thing says a lot about the people who run Casa Dragonfly. When a resident passed away, they did not send her dog away. They kept him, out of respect for her and the life she had lived here, and he remains part of the household. He is not the only reminder. Around the home you will find small keepsakes left behind by residents who have since passed, kept with care so they are not forgotten. It is a home that honors the people it cares for, long after they are gone.

Casa Dragonfly is a good fit for a retiree or a loved one who needs real assisted living or nursing care but still wants privacy, dignity, and a space of their own, in a warm, professionally run home.
