Has anything changed significantly since then? Any other suggestions? There's Playa San Diego. I stayed at Rancho Brisas 3 nights last month. I've stayed at Playa Tunco at Layback Hostel. The Mopelia place looked good but was full. I walked around the point to Sunzal to find a dump and was offered a prostitute. The place was totally dead. Another day I checked out Zonte, is more low key than Tunco.
Horizonte surf camp looked pretty cool. I wouldnt stay at essencia nativa, it was too busy and touristy. I swung over to the east to check out Tortuga Verde near playa el Cuco which was a disappointment. Several times I sat at the bar and couldnt get service.
I waited 30 minutes. The bartenders waited on others promptly, diddled around acting busy, pecked on their phones, etc. They even made eye contact with me several times, but kept on ignoring me. It was boring, a square family place full of stiffs and little kids running around screaming.
People come there for the weekend from San Miguel I heard. Try for a weekend in Juayua and the food festival, a whole lot of fun and excellent cheap street food. Can spend days in that town just hanging out. Stayed at Hotel Anahuac, nice place, people and location. Easy to set up trip to 7 Waterfalls.
