There's a good selection of mid-range hotels with river access on the south side of the highway on the western approach to town and a few more between town and the beach. More inexpensive hotels can be found in town. At the beach, several places rent primitive cabañas on Punta Piedra, on the southern end by the lighthouse.
Hotel San Juan
A good midrange hotel about $400-500 per night about half a kilometer west of town. family friendly, with a well-kept pool, a boat dock, air conditioning in each room, and grills and cooking equipment you can use to cook your catch at the end of day. they also sell fish and other seafood for the less lucky fishermen. look for the peach colored buildings on your right as you arrive in la pesca.
La Quinta Huachinango
Nice and private place. la quinta huachinango has 3 vacation apartments for rent, two 2-bedroom and one 1-bedroom, with private bathrooms, sky-tv, air-conditioning, and personal barbeque pitts. up to 30 people. outside there's a nice swimming pool surrounded by stone walkways, a pier, 50 meters of waterfront, and 3 palapa-covered picnic areas with barbeque grills. it's located at the edge of the "estero," to your left on highway 70 before you enter town, about 100 yards after you pass the costa lora turtle monument in front of the public dock.
Hotel Tropicana
This is a hotel known for it's hospitality, and is actually the last hotel on your drive towards the beach, which makes it the closest. it is a great place to stay for a different experience from the rest of the hotels, because they offer clean and pretty tropical cabins painted in bright colours, with kitchenette, t.v., bbq pitt, pool, fishing pier, and a convenience store on the property, which is great for all the people that forget to bring stuff with them. in the store they offer everything from soft drinks, meat, t-shirts, all sorts of beach balls, and practically anything you should need. they also have a nice camping area, for all the people who want to stay in a tent because they either don't want to pay that much or just for the fun of it. another advantage is that they have cabins from 2 to 4 persons, 5-6, 7-8 or 9-10, which is great if your traveling with a big family. the price ranges are also acceptable about $700-1300 per night which if you compare to having to get 3 or 4 hotel rooms to fit a 10 person family, is actually cheap. while visiting la pesca, look for the bright cabins on your right hand side, heading towards the beach.
