About Los Olivos. Los Olivos is a secure gated community nestled in the hills of Upper Ajijic, just above (north) of La Floresta. It's a friendly neighborhood of 20 homes, and boasts a community pool and clubhouse area. It's extremely quiet, but is within walkiing distance of Ajijic centro (the central core and plaza).

Raising your heart rate for at least an hour a day can help ward off weight gain and even help you lose weight (STOP THE PRESS!).
