Where you sleep will depend on your priorities: lazy beach vacationers will prefer a base on the coast, either north or south of town, but San Miguel’s accommodations are less expensive and right in the middle of the action. Bare-bones beds can be had for under $90 nightly, while anything over $200 is considered “expensive” (luxury resorts here rarely top $300 per night).
