About Villa de los Frailes
Living in Villa de los Frailes
Villa de los Frailes, usually just called Los Frailes, is an established residential development south of San Miguel de Allende near the Presa Allende reservoir. It was laid out with larger lots and wider streets than the colonias near Centro, and it has the feel of a quiet, gated-style suburb.
The housing is varied: original homes from the development’s early years, remodeled houses, newer builds and a number of vacant lots. Prices span a wide range as a result, from land and modest homes to large estates with pools and gardens.
Los Frailes works well for buyers who prioritize space, a garden and a car-friendly layout, and who are happy to drive into Centro rather than walk.
