" Confianza "
"Trust" - As business and personal connections in Mexico are based primarily
on personal relationships, the trust factor needs to be especially high
for people to make commitments and to follow through on them.

Terri & Garry Kurchirka
Buying a beachfront vacation home, in Mexico was a big leap of faith for this couple from the prairies of Canada. A leap of faith, that they are happy they took. Terri and Garry say that they have met many, wonderful, sincere people in the community of Los Ayala, who they are proud to call friends.

Bos & Margaret
Meet Los Ayala Local Folks, Margaret and Bos who came to Los Ayala for a two week holiday, vowing to each other that, even though their friends were building a home in Los Ayala, that they were here for a holiday and that they would not even look at property.

Elaine & Morris Smith
Elaine and Morris first visited Los Ayala in the early 1970s. At that time Los Ayala had no streets, electricity, potable water, or telephones, and the elementary school was just a small square cleared in the jungle with a chicken wire fence enclosing a few desks for the students. They bought a home in 1995 and have lived their dream for seventeen years. Since that time, Elaine has established a very successful Learning Center and Library in Los Ayala.

Lori Schneider-Wood
Lori is known as "Los Ayala's Pippi Longstocking," a fitting description since adventure always seems to find her wherever she goes - whether she seeks it or not! She first visited Jaltemba Bay in 2007 and while on vacation, became enamoured of Los Ayala, because as an avid hiker and paddler it resembled a huge playground, so much so that before she returned home to Canada she bought a small lot, and left a piece of her heart behind.
