geeser Posted September 24, 2016 Report Share Posted September 24, 2016 The Newer pool in Riberas is on the Caraterra just past S&S and the chicken place on the N. side. There is a great, huge water play complex at Villa Corona. If you check your map you'll see if you go to the Colima highway through Jocotepec and then jog slightly and take the highway to Barra Navadid. It is just a few miles down on the left. The name is Parque Acuatico Agua Caliente Directions 1 hour, 54k 1 h (54.4 km) via México 23 and Guadalajara-Morelia/Morelia-Guadalajara/México 15 N 53 min without traffic Ajijic, Jalisco Take Hidalgo to Carr Jocotepec-chapala/Poniente/México 23 2 min (400 m) Follow México 23, Guadalajara-Morelia/Morelia-Guadalajara/México 15 N and México 80 O toHidalgo in Villa Corona 53 min (53.3 km) Continue on Hidalgo.

Carolina Posted September 24, 2016 Report Share Posted September 24, 2016 I have always heard positive comments about swimming at the Hotel Monte Carlo. Reasonable fees, I have heard. The hotel is on the lake side of the Carretera, just before you enter Chapala proper coming in from Ajijic. I think Farmacia Guadalajara is across the small side street from it, also on the south side of the highway. There is a restaurant at the hotel as well.

Hud Posted September 24, 2016 Report Share Posted September 24, 2016 No one knows any prices? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
virgogirl Posted September 25, 2016 Report Share Posted September 25, 2016 I spoke to my neighbors and they said the price of Monte Carlo is about 450 pesos a month pass which is about what you pay for one day at the San Juan Cosala Hotsprings. We are going on Monday so I will report daily prices later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
