We have attempted to compile a list of all hotels, resorts, restaurants, bars, and services in this community or area.  It is a certainty that we have missed some (or that some we have listed have closed or changed their names).  We would appreciate your help in keeping this list up-to-date.  If you know of any errors or omissions, please write to us at info@gringoflamingo.com.  If any business listed here would like to have their listing linked to their Web site, or would like to advertise on this page, please contact sales@gringoflamingo.com.  (If any business listed does not yet have a Web site (shame on you!), but would like to have one, contact info@egfwebservices.com and we’ll get you fixed up).  Thank you.

Playa Junquillal is a long, windswept beach that, for much of its length, is backed by grasslands.  There is really no village to speak of here, and the road is rough, so it’s a good place to “get away from it all” and enjoy a nearly deserted beach.  When the waves are big, Playa Junquillal is great for surfing, but can be a little dangerous for swimming.  When the sea is calm, however, the beach is good for swimming.  Frommer’s calls this place “a nearly undiscovered gem”.
