I completely agree: according to one of the girls; HDR also screens the girls who are allowed to work there and they then get tested by the HDR doctor to get a clean bill of health at the cost pay $400 each quarter which I also felt is too much.I hope you don't actually believe that. Some of the things those girls say to guys cracks me up.

I just got back from SJ this weekend. Prior to my trip I booked the Hotel Presidente. I asked if I could have a guest and they said yes and mentioned a dress code and that they look guests up in a computer system. I got a copy of the dress code prior to going to del ray. Once I got to del ray I mentioned to 1 or 2 girls where I was staying and they said hotel presidente not letting anyone in regardless of dress code. I called hotel presidente from the del ray and spoke to manager of hotel presidente and she said I could have a guest. So I picked out a knock out, yes, there are knock outs there, and told her she needed to change for dress code. She had a friend bring a change of clothes. When she came out of the bathroom she told me 2 or 3 other ticas said hotel presidente won't let anyone in. We went back to hotel presidente and the computer screen said "denied". My tica said she never had a problem there and I believe her. I think the screen is either bogus, or they got a data dump of all of the registered ticas.

I told the manager that I booked under the agreement I could have a guest and I would dispute the charges. She said I could have my money back. We walked less than 50 feet over to the ballamore and they were so nice and booked a room on the spot. I can't believe the hotel presidente rather give me my money back then let a guest up to my room. My tica was super hot and in regular clothes she looked like a future trophy wife for some lucky guy that had no idea about her past. Or didn't care.

I was at the del ray thur night between 7. 9. Out of 100 plus girls there were at least 5 hotties. I was luckly to not have any real competition and the hotties came to straight to me. The hottest girl however was a bar tender and I blew off a few ticas because I was enjoying my conversation with the bartender so much. Unfortunately I was only in town for that night and the bar tender worked until 1:00 am and I knew it was a long shot. So I went with the sure thing for 4 hours. Had I been in town longer I would have blown off all of the ticas for one shot with that bartender! Wowowowwowow

I have had two different girls who "work" at SL tell me that the SL owners screen which girls they allow to hang qround and solicit business. I don't see how this would violate any law, since the girls don't actually work for the establishment. They are true independents and set their own prices. However, any hotel has the right to decide who they allow on their premises.I can back you up here. The owner does screen the girls for a couple of reasons.

He doesn't want to have the place filled with girls hot or not taking up all the seating in his bar and not buying anything. It keeps the quality higher too.

And he wants to protect his customers from bad apples that are known to steal, flip out etc.

I don't know for certain but I would be surprised if there is any kickbacks to ownership at the SL.

Its good to know from"Honest " mongerers, that the SL and the HDR are protecting their clientelle. Costa Rica is not for everyone, but "Honest" reporting is much appreciated. For the record I'm not a serial CR basher, I actually liked hanging with the guys, shooting the shit at SL and HDR.

I don't know for certain but I would be surprised if there is any kickbacks to ownership at the SL.According to the girls, there are no kickbacks. The girls have to pay for everything they eat or drink, so this is how the house makes money from the girls.

Mr. Go Go, what Jetsetter posted is right on. It is no use saying that in DR they do things differently. In CR the clubs and bars cannot control the girls, they can only screen them to make sure they are not thieves or druggies etc. Like any legitamate place of business.

Regarding "honest" posters I think Mr. Jetsetter gave you an opinion of what things are like and if you do not wish to believe him that is your right. As I mentioned in my post earlier you need to meet expats at the gulch bars and get their advice on how to operate in CR or get an expat to give you a tour of places that are not rip offs.

As Jetsetter says CR has a learning curve unlike DR and Thailand where it is easier for a newbie to operate. The fact that Samata61 believes what some bar girl told him about the HDR having the girls checked for HIV etc. Shows how naive he is and the advise being given to him is take the trouble to learn the scene in CR rather than write it off.

Be aware that no bars have the girls checked and make sure you check the ID of a girl who looks under 18. You are on your own in CR and there is no bar or hotel that can save you from trouble with the law.

If all this makes you feel that CR is not for you so be it but be aware that many many mongers have found it a great place to enjoy themselves.

Good Luck!

Good Luck! I think you jumped in to defend your buddy Jetsetter without really reading the previous posts. Normally I would take offense at someone who defends someone that is wrong, but you seem like a classy guy so I will stay on that level.

Your buddy Jettsetter said anyone that tries to screen girls who comes in would be shut down, and that I'm ignorant of realities for not knowing this. Now we find out from some veterans, Mr Weebist and lorenzo that they do screen the girls and haven't been shut down. That leads me to believe Jettsetter either misstated, or doesn't know what he is talking about. Hopefully its the first.

I also stated Costa Rica isn't for everyone, we agree on that. I also stated that the SL and HDR are great guy hangouts We all agree guys need to branch out. But I also stated for me CR was a waste of time and money (compared to the DR and Medelli) and I will never return. But to just go away and not be active on this board would be doing a newbie a disservice. Guys need to understand fully what they are getting into. To hear from the same two or three guys how great CR is would be a crime. With me you get the good and bad.

Respectfully yours Gogo.

BlackBeards (owned by foreigners) in the Dominican Republic shoots down your whole first paragraph. The Dominican Republic has laws that forbid pimping. The resort is set up for male single travelers. The girls are tested, are encouraged to smile and be receptive, and are supposed to respect the resorts guests. From having lunch, to a walk on the beach, to spending all night (independent girls can do these things not ask for 100usd for an hour then run off) , to off the resort dates (no sex) to see the Dominican experience. Black beards is not in any way involved in profitting from sex (you pay the girl not them). They make sure the guests are NOT ripped off basically. Maybe they deal with the once a year police checkup (payoff). But if your telling me an establishment doesn't reserve the right to decide who gets allowed on the property and who is not, maybe I'm not the only one "that reflects a complete ignorance". I know your going to say CR and the DR are different places, but its the same model.

I will agree with you that most of the Mongerers stay in the Del Rey, and vacinity and never branch out. But last time I checked there werent alot of other reports about different areas. First outside destination we hear are Jaco, and the Beatle bar. Please don't get me started on that place. So 'Honest Samata61" comes to this board and goes by what he has read, and ends up in Del Rey. I respect his HONEST reporting about over paying more than some guy that "knows the game", has friends there, and states he overpays (50usd) at Hotel Del ray.

Maybe what this board needs is an HONEST person who "has connections" and" knows the game" to educate us about their experiences outside of the Del Rey area. Are you willing to help us overpaying Del Rey Junkies?

FYI in my forum"Mr Gogo in the DR", I do trip reports (and pics) from all over the island and try to distribute all the HONEST info a newbie or veteran would need to know before traveling. Being no info is on this board like this, I have two assumptions: 1). Either everyone is keeping their secrets. 2). Only a few who selectively sanitize CR, really like it. I think its the second choice.

Respectfully yours as always, Gogo. Last time I checked, the Dominican Republic and Costa Rica are two separate countries operating in entirely different contexts, and it is NOT the "same model." FYI, a number of MPs, including HLH, have been shut down from time to time by the authorities for supposedly violating these pimping laws. Believe me, the owner of the SL in particular is very conscious about not crossing this line. Yes, as my "buddy" Soft Bob mentioned, Billl and other owners can and should bar ladies for bad public behaviour, but that is as far as it goes. They can't and won't involve themselves with mongering transactions in any way, such as arranging price structures. Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't the guys at Blackbeards pay a set, or similar price for sessions? At least short-time ones?

Myself and numerous others have contributed a ton of HONEST trip reports relating to our experiences, warts and all,"outside of the Del Rey area." It doesn't seem like you or Samata61 spent much time perusing them. I find it kind of amusing that you feel so many of us are just lying, ignorant shills for the CR mongering scene. I have no problem with people who post negatively of their mongering experiences in Costa Rica. In fact, I have done so myself, a number of times. But when a complete "know it all" newbie shows up and spends virtually his entire time in one venue and then makes sweeping generalizations about the CR scene in general, I can't help but call him on it. Yes, Samata61 wrote an HONEST report of his days sampling the Blue Marlin bar and Key Largo. I never challenged him on the veracity of his report. I did challenge him on the legitimacy of his summary conclusions about the entire scene. I wonder how many people realize that there are over 100 MPs in the San Jose area that offer full service?

Enough said on my part. Maybe too much! Once again, I strongly advise first-time visitors to perform due dilligence. This includes extending their research beyond perusing the ISG CR board. I strongly recommend becoming a member of CRT as well.

Respectfully yours as always, Gogo. Mr Gogo I can only imagine that along with working girl mongering you are crack mongering too. I can't make sense out of anything you are saying, you keep talking about a totally different country. You also seem to not read what other people are writing because your responses make no sense. Perhaps it's a mistake and you just got in the wrong country and didn't realize it, please make sure where you are posting is correct. If I want to hear about what happens in DR I would go to that forum.

WowowowwowowA good friend of mine who owns a hotel in San Jose was told flatout by one of the owners of the Presidente that they don't want the monger buiness. They are much more interested in soliciting business travellers, families and ecotourists. And their dress code is selectively enforced. And they don't allow more than one lady at a time. There are obviuosly much better options! Glad you ditched them!

Don't plan your trip around a forum."don't plan your trip around a forum"? Damn you say some stupid ass shit. No wonder you can't understand anything I say your mind is closed and one sided. Jettsetter, softbob, lorenzo, Mr weebist and I were having a healthy intelligent debate, then you jump in late with stupid ass comments (a smart person wouldve said nothing verse what you said). Stay out of grown folks conversations if you can't jump in with some intelligent views.

Also Jettsetter, I like your last post even though I don't agree with some of your points. We have both stated what we believe, so lets leave it at that. Atleast you put some thought into what say instead of dumbasses who just post stupid shit that doesn't make sense.

No trip reports, no pics but he gets angry at guys who block the faces in their pics. These forums are an asset as long as people contribute good or bad. But as he says"he only shoots the shit here'.

I come here for an intelligent exchange of ideas regarding travel. Where to stay, how much, girls, taxis, food, and safety. I don't come here to waste anybodys time with chit chat. Just my 2 cents.

Otherwise, why are you on THIS forum? Just to "shoot the shit?"

I plan on visiting CR for this first time in early May. I've extensively traveled Asia and Europe but will a complete newbie to Costa Rica / Central America.

Based on my RTFF and reviewing Trip Advisor, I decided to stay at the SL for my first time in CR.

Sorry for this stupid question, but here it is:

Does anyone here have familiarity with the "Junior Suite" in the clubhouse wing? Is it much different from the standard rooms, aside from the price? (Actually, these are two stupid questions.)

I'm up for splurging on some beer if any of you seasoned CR veterans are up to helping a CR newbie.

In advance, thanks for any help.

Absulute, total BS.I am just reporting but it appears correct. It seem that it is the way HDR can charge the girls for medical test to make sure that they are clean and make some money on the side.

Check it out. It seems logical and correct.

Why are we mixing screening girls with Pimping? There is no questions that HDR screens and tests the girls and have all the right to do it to protect their client but I am also certain that they overcharge the girls for the medical tests which is a way to make more money. As a matter of fact, I requested HDR to send me a driver to the airport and he explained to me that the girls are tested every month but in reality they are tested every 3 months for $400 each. I have no way to verify this but the girl had already spent 2 days with me and was already paid $500 so she will gain nothing extra for the information.

I went to HDR and Beetle Bar based on the information posted in ISG that they are the 2 best places to hit and now after posting my negative report I am hearing that I should have done it differently. So I completely agree with Mr. Gogo that some members are hiding the good places for their own use.

My conclusion was clear. CR is a beautiful country but equally beautiful places have hotter and better looking girls for equal or less money.

MR. Gogo, I've been to DR 3 times with a Russian or Ukrainian GF since they don't need a visa but your form entices me to go to DR and taste the local talent.

Older section, its been a while since I stayed there or went back there but I think bill renovated it recently by these fotos. It faces out the front of the hotel but stays pretty quiet. Used to be real small and share showers with other rooms. But I don't think you can beat it for the price.

In advance, thanks for any help. I stayed in the junior suite my last stay at SL. It is a spacious room with a separate lounge area with sofa and chairs and a small bathroom. Spacious kin size bed, very clean. The one drawback is that it is very noisy at night. The floor outside is not carpeted, so you can hear the heels of everyone who comes in during the night clacking on the floor. It kept me awake several nights. If you are a sound sleeper, this may not be a problem.

MrWeebist
04-22-11, 04:43
Didn't even think about high heels on the floor at night. That could wake you up. But compared to the courtyard noise I would guess it is still substantially less.

Then again why sleep?

I would suggest maybe giving CR another try being you now know your mistakes. With Brazil and Sosua the mongering"fuckfest" is over. Low key is the menu of the year. I also have spots that I keep for myself. But I'm afraid your spending habits wouldn't blend well there. Get a comfort zone at a fair price and lay low for now. Thats my advise to you.

Costa Rica runs on discounts and referrals, it's not like here everything is negotiable. I think one forum is enough, at some point it's just too much.

"don't plan your trip around a forum"? Damn you say some stupid ass shit. No wonder you can't understand anything I say your mind is closed and one sided. Jettsetter, softbob, lorenzo, Mr weebist and I were having a healthy intelligent debate, then you jump in late with stupid ass comments (a smart person wouldve said nothing verse what you said). Stay out of grown folks conversations if you can't jump in with some intelligent views.

Also Jettsetter, I like your last post even though I don't agree with some of your points. We have both stated what we believe, so lets leave it at that. Atleast you put some thought into what say instead of dumbasses who just post stupid shit that doesn't make sense. You must be one of those really old guys with the mind partially going. You were not debating you were speaking stupid non-sense, and I wasn't the only one to point it out. Planning your trip on a forum is more close minded than just going with the flow and experiencing so again you prove your stupidity. There's always a couple guys on these forums that it's obvious they monger because of need and not because of desire, you are one of those needy mongers. I pity you.

Besides no one said anything about not"going with the flow"or "experiencing", your comment was "don't plan shit around a forum". In fact we plan around the forum and go with the flow and experience naturally.

Hi Guys

Seems like a great forum with helpful reports and people. I will be visiting SJ in mid may. Staying at La Amistad. It appears to be GF from the reports I have read. Any comments on this.

One question please: is "overnight" possible with the ladies and at what cost.

Hope to get some advice

Regards,

Actually the DR is presently experiencing a crackdown, and it might be awhile before we know the outcome. I would suggest maybe giving CR another try being you now know your mistakes. With Brazil and Sosua the mongering"fuckfest" is over. Low key is the menu of the year. I also have spots that I keep for myself. But I'm afraid your spending habits wouldn't blend well there. Get a comfort zone at a fair price and lay low for now. Thats my advise to you.I appreciate the input regarding Brazil & Sosua. I can understand what is happening in Brazil with the world cup in 2014 and the Olympic in 2016; the same happened in China. Why is DR cracking down is unexpected!

Spending habits can be controlled and I seldom spend over a $100 for LT in BKK but each situation is different.

Anyway, I will stick with Europe and SE Asia for the time being but if I travel close to home, it will likely be Curacao or St. Maarten. Any thought on these places?

The DR party is over, unless you have previous established connections, or want to hang at BlackBeards. They are promoting tourism for the families, possibly to get the jump on Cuba openning up in a few years. I read last week that they started shutting down the casas in Santo Domingo.

My comment about your spending habits, was that to me you seem to like the upscale girls. Especially since you like to travel with Russian and ukrain women (expensive) , wasnt trying to offend you.

Curacao has campos, which are compounds where the women work and live away from the tourist spots.

It is unlike any other place I have been on earth, a vast campground devoted to pussy. Only problem is that the vast majority of girls are low quality Colombians. However, if you look diligently and are patient you can find some gems, and it is cheap. Definitely worth checking out at least once.

I disagree, don't waste your money CRT is pricey and you're not going to anything more in my opinion. My best times in CR were from stumbling into something new, never have I benefited from something written in a forum, forums are great for shooting the shit. Don't plan your trip around a forum.Wow, this is really not useful information. While it is true that CRT has become more filled with pissing wars (which a few people here seem to have down to an art) , there are many people who still do provide good information. You have never read anything on a forum that you can use? Wow, that is some arrogance!

Besides, the discounts on hotels that are CRT sponsors make up for the membership feel very quickly.

Also, Madisonguy, the racist comment (eubonics) was just useless, foolish and low class.

CRT happens to have some great guys who have become good pals of mine throughout the years- it also has some boneheads. It is what you make of it, but certainly not useless.

I believe forums should be free. If you believed CRT has saved you money from being a member. Well I'm sorry that you haven't figured out how Costa Rica works yet. Before I was a CRT member I was in a couple places that were in the CRT discount and trust me they honored the discount for me even though I was not a member. Do you really think they would love business over a tiny discount. Most places pay a commission for bringing someone to their establishment. I will have to take back one thing though, I did use one piece of information in the CRT forum. I got Karens phone number off there when she was independant. But in general I look at forums as a great way to shoot the shit about your trips. But it doesn't take a forum to learn about the Delrey, and once you are there you can find out the scoop on everything. Not to mention security at your hotel. I think you're a lot better off shooting the shit with someone over a game of black jack and finding what's new and hot. Of the CRT members I met there they all had a little missing upstairs it seemed, I'm sure the whole group isn't like that but it seems pretty normal. The cost of having a forum is next to nothing, I hopefully in the future will have time to try to start one that is free and if it takes off great if not well that's life. I guess I find something wrong for charging a bunch of guys to shoot the shit online about their sexual sexcapades. I think forums are great for that, but planning a trip around one is a little too much.

But out of your 30+ posts. You give NO relevant Information about ANYTHING.

You say of the CRT members you met, they ALL had a little missing upstairs. Could it be YOU are the one missing something. Judging by the MAJORITY of replies to your Idiotic rants, TAKE A LOOK IN THE MIRROR buddy.

Most of the CRT, ISG, and other BM I have met, we all had something in common and I learned something from everyone I met, and made alot of friends along the way. Even planned trips after reading info from the Boards.

I think forums are great for that, but planning a trip around one is a little too much.You say that if you beleive CRT has saved you money then you haven't figured out CR yet. Thus you have figured out CR but 100's of CRT members haven't. Boy does that sound cool. (sic) You must really think you are impressing people. Yet you won't even tell us what you know that CRT members don't.

I am a CRT member. I know every time I stay at SL for 4 days or more, my CRT discount gives me back the amount of my CRT membership for one year. I am also certain that I would not get this discount if I was not a CRT member. Also as a CRT member on just one trip I can get enough discounts to cover a life membership.

It's simple math. You don't have to be a genius to figure it out. I know Einstein flunked math, but from what you have posted I can't beleive you are another Einstein. There might be some places that won't card you if you say you are a CRT member. But these are likely to be small amounts. You yourself said they were TINY discounts. For any major cost such as your hotel stay they card you. These costs aren't tiny.

Then you say that all CRT members have a little missing upstairs. You like generalizations, don't you.

I admit I have met some CRT members that are a-holes. But through CRT I have also met many great friends, and the range of CRT members is no different than any other random group of people. Anyone who says that all CRT members have a little missing upstairs, has a little missing upstairs. You just seem to be an arrogant, very naive guy, with a chip on his shoulder, to show everyone that he knows more that a large group of people who are satified with the purchase of a CRT membership. And you tell us nothing except some very bad information, and then give us a generalized pathetic insult. You are not cool Madguy.

I never said all CRT members are a little fruity, but the majority I have met are. Maybe I met all the bad apples, either way I don't think it's worth while to have a CRT membership especially on top of this one. And Mr Weebist obivously knows how easy it is to get discounts, I mean they have the gringo rate posted anyway locals don't pay the same thing. I have shot the shit with owners of establishments that give the CRT discount and we laughed at the fact that it really means nothing. And I have been told point blank by one of them don't listen to those guys on that forum they don't know what they're talking about. Not out of the blue it was because of something that happened. So you can call me names, but if I save one person from getting brain washed from that forum it's worth it. At the end of the day to plan a trip you only need to know about the Del Rey, the rest will fall in place as it always does. If you're a shy type that doesn't talk to people then perhaps the forum is for you because you aren't going to find the best places with out asking and adventuring. My funnest nights happened in the local joints, places that aren't posted on any forums like Puebla but even a little seedier at times. The general concensus on CRT is stay at Del Rey, hop in a cab to ZB, hop in cab to idem, like there's no exploring no stories are going to be that different. One of my buddies there runs a body guard service / transportation, I met him just by shooting the shit with hotel security and he took me to places that were awesome, that I will always have images of my head because of the uniqueness of the clubs. So sorry but I would never recommend anyone to become CRT, this forum is great because it's world wide and you can check things out quick. Everyone on that forum thinks that San Jose is this dangerous place and you're going to get mugged if you start exploring or turn into a pumpkin if you're walking the streets past 12. It's ridiculous! It is no different there than any major city in the US. You can bash me all you want on here, honestly it means nothing to me because it's obvious that it's CRT guys defending there cult. Hey guys CRT is meeting here tonight and doing a walk about to all these places. Ha ha ridiculous. There is a limit to the number of wingmen you can have and work it.

I am also certain that I would not get this discount if I was not a CRT member. Also as a CRT member on just one trip I can get enough discounts to cover a life membership.How much is a lifetime membership? Also, what else do you use your CRT card on other than the Sportsmen`s Lodge? What you say makes perfect sense if you are staying at the SL plus eating and drinking there a lot. As full as they stay, and as closely tied to CRT as they are, it`s makes sense that one would strike out there edging for a discount without the CRT card. A lot of offer places though one could ask for a cash in advance discount and might do quite well. Last I was there most didn`t like dealing with credit cards, and didn`t want to take Mastercard at all.

If the old Zona Blue has improved as some report, it might be worth it to get any discounts they have there.

I just scanned over the list of CRT sponsors, and best I see the only one I use is Idem, and all they offer is the second drink free. As a rule though, when there, I just have one drink anyway, pick a girl, and leave when I`m finished.

While I agree with things you say I think you have some pre conceived contempt also. Maybe just straight up contempt. No se.

There is definitely a group of guys that thinks they know everything thats for sure.

But they do save a lot of newbie mongers a lot of grief. Not all guys that head to san jose are ready for the type of woman they meet there.

They women are fending for themselves and play the game really well. Sounds like you know that game and can avoid the pitfalls. Many don't and crt provides that info in spades.

The maps and tours are great if you haven't been around.

And there are absolutely dangerous places you should avoid.

That said most of the horror stories are guys drunk and alone doing stupid shit.

I have met a lot of good guys through crt but admit I do not seek them out and feel quite comfortable touring the country by myself.

Speaking at least some spanish is a must.

But brainwashing? I think it is well intended sharing of info that sometimes comes across as preachy. But if as a newbie you choose to just ignore it the chances are you end up paying a price.

There are some pretty common parallels to these stories. At least thats what I have witnessed.

A lot of offer places though one could ask for a cash in advance discount and might do quite well. Last I was there most didn`t like dealing with credit cards, and didn`t want to take Mastercard at all.A life membership is a C-note. Since I usually stay at SL for more than 4 days it's usually paid for on one trip. Outside of SL I use it when I can. Some of these places might not card everyone. But that's not the point.

The point is that there are many people that the CRT card pays off for. But Madguy said he knows his way around and he knows better ways without telling us what they are. Then he made stereotypes about CRT members as if CRT was a private exclusive club or fraternity. But CRT membership is open to everyone. There are no stereotypes of CRT members. So these comments were just insults. Perhaps Madguy does not want stay at a place that gives CRT discounts. Then a CRT card would probably not be worthwile for him. But I find that many of the places that I prefer to stay at in SJ take CRT. And if they do it can easily pay for itself. So do many other people and until somebody shows us that it is not worthwhile, which he has yet to do, we are going to be most satisfied with our membership.

And since thare are no stereotypes of CRT members all these generalizations and attacks on it's members are immature cheap shots.

Just for the record, I had no interest at all in taking a side in this dispute you have going with MadisonGuy, however some of your remarks raised some thoughts and questions regarding whom it might or might not benefit, so I aired them.

A life membership is a C-note. Since I usually stay at SL for more than 4 days it's usually paid for on one trip. Outside of SL I use it when I can. Some of these places might not card everyone. But that's not the point.

The point is that there are many people that the CRT card pays off for. But Madguy said he knows his way around and he knows better ways without telling us what they are. Then he made stereotypes about CRT members as if CRT was a private exclusive club or fraternity. But CRT membership is open to everyone. There are no stereotypes of CRT members. So these comments were just insults. Perhaps Madguy does not want stay at a place that gives CRT discounts. Then a CRT card would probably not be worthwile for him. But I find that many of the places that I prefer to stay at in SJ take CRT. And if they do it can easily pay for itself. So do many other people and until somebody shows us that it is not worthwhile, which he has yet to do, we are going to be most satisfied with our membership.

And since thare are no stereotypes of CRT members all these generalizations and attacks on it's members are immature cheap shots. Now you're putting words in my mouth. There is no secret to getting discounts in CR. I'm not trying to hide the fact that every where I have been I have gotten a discount simply by asking for one usually by paying cash, sometimes by saying I run a tourist agency and am scouting new destinations. Simple bullshit anybody can make up I do the same thing in the US, who doesn't want a discount? I stay at the same places on the list and have gotten the CRT member just by saying I'm a member, do you honestly think they need to see the card? There's a ton of CRT members so obvisouly some of them are great guys, I just think from what I've seen and who I've met it's definetely not my cup of tea. It's kind of like a frat house, I wouldn't join a frat house because to me it feels like paying for friends. If CRT were free that alone would change my attitude a little. The ticas already charge for their services, I don't want to get charged from fellow mongers. I have dozens of websites and know that the advertising alone more than pays for the cost of the site. Somebody is kicking back getting a life time supply of chicas on other mongers accounts. This forum has more than enough info, no need to have CRT also and here you get to explore a little more. My only quam is that they exclude the US, backpage is a mess of scams and busts waiting to happen.

Can anybody tell me the the name of the main strip and hot spots in San Jose and recommend some chica friendly hotels that are walking distance.

ThanksSThe Gringo Gulch is the main strip for mongering. If you haven't been down before and have limited Spanish, you can't go wrong by staying at the Hotel Del Rey or the Sportsmens Lounge.

Arguably, there are other places nearby that may cost less, so if you are adventurous and speak some Spanish, I'd encourage some exploration.

Some people really like the convenience of HDR, it's completely self-contained; Chicas, Bar, casino, restaurant. And some guys never leave. (Actually, they do have a Tourism Desk there, so you could book a sight-seeing trip).

Without knowing much about what kind of experince your looking for, spend some time reading this board to sort out what appeals to you.

Have a fun trip, puro vida.

Has anybody stayed at the Europa, if so how was it. How much is the chicas on the street.Yes, but ST only. I pulled two girls from the Hotel Del Rey, one Tica and one Colombian. We went for a room at HDR, but they were full. They called Europa, reserved a room ST, and had a taxi take us at no cost. Then started an hour of extasy!

I remember the hotel being a little run down for a regular stay hotel, but fine for ST. Don't know if I'd stay there overnight. Alot of mongers coming and going, although it would be limited to certain floors.

Stay away from the chicas on the street. Too risky. Either druggies, TVs, or just plain hardcore. Not worth the trouble and added cost if you get robbed or injured. Good luck.

MCruddyI have stayed there in the presidential suite. The presidential suite is better than presidente. The normal rooms aren't that great. The staff is awesome and they don't charge girls. I love the walk to Del Rey and ZB from Europa it brings me to life. Most girls won't walk back to it though they want a taxi, I don't recommend telling them they could use the exercise either I lost a girl with that one. I love to wonder in San Jose it's so interesting and to me it seems very safe compared to other places in the world. I've actually went out on dates with the front desk girl at Europa every time I've stayed, always was a different girl working day shift and I always got caught bringing a girl back from Del Rey eventually but I love those girls that server ie. Front desk, mcdonalds, shoe sales. Next time I'm hiring a maid and hopefully working out some fantasies. My wife owns a cleaning company and when a cute girl cleans our home I'm always like damn I'd like to bend that piece of ass over. But don't know if I want to get a tongue lashing for it.

Had another good trip April 13-20. Wasn't sure what to expect so close to Easter. I was out before Holy Thursday when alcohol is not supposed to be served and there were plenty of chicas including a wide variety as usual. Highlights included Camila at Relax. She is a 19 year old Nica. The best way I can describe her is yummy. Had her twice for a one hour session each time. She wears a school girls outfit, man did that take me back, and she took a good pounding each session. Adriana from the Sportsmans (pictured in the pink sweater) has an incredible body (plastic boobs for sure and possibly ass implants). The sex was as good as I made it because I did most of the work, but what can I say you get that alot with the hot girls. Nevertheless, she let me take control in terms of positions, although anal and BBBJ were off the menu, as were nude photos. She was cool, we BS'd for a while at a table and she took $80 US. Afterwards, she wanted to cuddle and feel asleep. I must admit, her naked body felt like heaven against my and I kept squeezing her firm tits and ass while she was asleep like I would never feel either on a girl again. When she wook up we fooled around again. She called my room the next night but I declined to repeat. I usually don't repeat unless the sex is off the charts and/or BBBJ or anal is on the menu.

The Del Rey had a great selection as usual. Due to the holiday, on a few nights there were more girls than guys and deals were to be had. Also visited some tico strip clubs. Le Grillion usually has a nice selection but I found the girls were a lot less friendly this time around. In any event, I had a good quickie by taking the initiative and going up to the one I wanted, a cute nica. Had a nice dance prior to our session, which is my usual practice to feel the chica out, or up, to try and determine how the session will turn out. Lots of grouping and ass in my face. I also recommend Pantera and Alcasar.

Also tried some discos outside of the gulch this time around with a bunch of guys, including a few in San Pedro, and Castro's in barrio Mexico. The bars and discos were just like home, but therein lies the problem. Hit on a few ticas and asked them to dance but no luck, so I left with another guys and hit Le Grillion and Del Rey, after downing two Bacardi shots. Two of the other guys I was with brought working girls with them (Nica sisters from the Del Rey) and stayed behind to party. Still want to try El Pueblo, but other than that I will likely avoid the conventional discos / bars going forward. A few of the girls wanted to take me to Vertigo, in Paseo Colon I believe, but the intel on that place was not good and included a drug scene (although I can't say from personal experience).

Besides Relax, Muses had a few cuties, including a 19 year old tica who goes by Paola. Paola was my first on this trip. She is short, with black hair, and fair skin. More importantly she had an extremely tight funhole. Didn't allow photos, but was a good time. Krysis had a few nice ones as well. Stopped by Muses, but was told they don't have chicas there anymore. Also stopped by HLH for the April 16 Havana throwback party, but there were only a few girls around who were not to my liking. Spoke with Boyd (who moved from Dunn Inn to HLH) and he said some of the girls were occupied and that turnout was lower due to the holiday week. I did arrive about a half hour late so it is possible that some guys pulled the trigger early. In any event, for me HLH has not been good for a while now. I poked my head into New Fantasy a couple of times but was not impressed with the selection and the upselling always make my joystick go limp. On other trips they have hada few cuties, so its always worth a stop, however here it is essential to talk to the girl prior if you want to avoid the upselling. Take the girl to one of the couches where the fishbowl use to be and talk to her prior to pulling the trigger.

Made a conscious effort to do at least three girls a day this trip. I achieved that goal more times than not this trip and was able to climax thrice daily but by the end of the night I was beat. Oh well, might as well go hard when you are in town because unless you are a porn actor, you are not having this experience on a daily basis. Bunda.

I got here Monday and found the DR very scarce for days and early evenings, but I did manage to meet a couple of new ones, a Tica and a Nica. Both very nice, so I haven't visited NF yet. Tourism is way down from years past, even from last year. Nights may be better. I'll check it out Saturday.

Had a follow-up visit with Dentist Dr. Chen and we'll do some more serious, but inexpensive work when I come back in July. I walked to his office twice about 10 a. m. The new Prez seems true to her word about beefing up security. I passed at least a half dozen pairs of policio on the two pedestrian streets to the office. They have been out more in the evening, also.

About the most exciting thing so far was the 6. 0 earthquake near Alajuelo today, Friday just before 5 pmabout 17 miles from downtown. Felt quite well in the Morazan Hotel downtown San Jose, felt like something was coming through the floor, then the room swayed considerably from side to side. I hadn't read the "Drop, Cover, Hold" earthquate response and run into the hall with pants in hand, only to meet other panicked guests and chicas. Scary. I didn't go outside, but many did. I could imagine that 12 ft. Dish toppling over, but it didn't.

Been a while since we've had a stronger one here.Here's a note about doorways during an earthquake. Unless the doorway is known to be supported and loadbearing, it does not provide additional safety.

Here's a quote from the following link:

An enduring earthquake image of California is a collapsed adobe home with the door frame as the only standing part. From this came our belief that a doorway is the safest place to be during an earthquake. True—if you live in an old, unreinforced adobe house. In modern houses, doorways are no stronger than any other part of the house. You are safer taking cover under a sturdy table or desk.

I hope that I can post this link without upsetting Jackson. Stay safe.

http://www.scec.org/education/public/espfocus/June_06.pdfNot sure if you're familiar with the construction of a Tico home, but it's definitely not modern, and I am definitely not hiding under a table. Door frames are easy to brace yourself in when your house feels like it is twisting off of the ground. It's more about peace of mind than anything, there are 5. X earthquakes semi regularly and never any damage but it still gets your heart racing even after a few years.

What are the options in San Jose, I bought Viagra, Valium, and weed on the street there in March. In particular I was sitting either outdoors or maybe it was just in an open air corner, at a famous hotel right downtown (not the Del Rey, a fancier one that is right on the corner, can't remember the name but might recognize it) , and several guys came up selling jewelry or whatever and I asked them for weed and they countered with Viagra and Valium. This was during broad daylight with tons of people around so I don't think it is overly risky. The weed they seemed moderately concerned about and wanted me to go somewhere with them but I said "No, we do it here or we don't do it at all."

If you stay at Del Rey or Sportsman's your fellow mongers will doubtless have some extra Viagra so unless you are a real putz you should not have any problem.

But don't buy any jewelry, ha ha.

In the world of sex tourism, each destination has it's hot spots that rise and fall over time. Rio had HELP, Medellin has the Mansion, Havana has La Cecelia, Costa Rica had Zona Blue. Each of these represents a piece of time that the winds of chance or fortune made one particular place better than the others.

In Costa Rica, from about 2005, to the middle of 2008, Zona Blue had a hands down advantage over it's competitors regarding talent and the quality of girls available in that establishment. So clear was the advantage that Zona Blue became the default place in San Jose to find the best looking women with the best service. So much so, that ZB management built a hotel around the 'Pension' in an effort to capitalize on the momentum. Prices gradually went up, and not many people complained. As the talent made the increase tolerable.

Something happened in Mid 2008 that affected Zona Blue's stable of talent. Be it a labor dispute between management and the girls, or how disagreements were handled, that caused an exodus of the most desired girls for a time. Efforts were made to resolve the dispute, but the damage was done.

Zona Blue never completely recovered. Changes to the name and a few superficial changes were made, but the window of prominence never reopened. Years later, the talent never has made it back to 2008 levels, but the pricing remains at a premium.

Relax tried to fill the void for a time, as did Idem, but nothing has equaled the abundance of talent once available. Until recently.

The Pirate Club, a theme bar / pension on Avenida 10 has consistently held the level of talent and reasonable pricing once sought after in Barrio Amon. A $2 taxi ride from the Del Rey, drinks are reasonable, pricing is modest, and the combination of beauty and service is consistently available.

One of my favorite things about the Pirate Club, besides beautiful girls delivering stellar service, is the hours of operation. Opening in the late morning, and closing after midnight most days gives the Pirate Club an advantage over most pensions that close at 8:00pm.

My experience in the hobby tells me that their sun will rise and set like everyone else before them, but I plan to enjoy this anomaly as long as it lasts, which I hope for them and all of us, is a long time.

Thanks for the update and photos. The esteemed Don Gordo has recently praised the Pirate Club as well. I'm looking forward to checking it out when I hit San Jose on July 1st. BTW, I've encountered some positive feedback on HLH (formerly Zona Blue) as well. They did a very wise thing and took on Boyd as their director of sales and marketing, and I've heard he has been assembling a much-improved lineup that is beginning to rival the "goood old days." Boyd is a true professional and a class act. He used to run the poker room at the Clarion and helped the Dunn Inn renovate and construct its new casino. Looking forward to checking out HLH as well.

I've been by to say Hi a couple times a week, and the girls are ok, but they are nowhere near the calibur of Pirate Club or the old Zona Blue. Just my 2 cents.

San Jose Costa Rica Mongering Summary.

Took my nephew with me on my first trip to Costa Rica. Was a treat as he recently done his first tour of duty in Afghanistan having recently joined the army. I was paying for the travel and accommodation he was to bring his own spending money. We were booked up for 9 nights and was budgeting around £1000.

ESTA Visa.

It was not possible to get a direct flight to San Jose Costa Rica so had to go via USA Newark airport. At London Heathrow we then had a problem as needed a visa even for transit in the USA. We could apply for an ESTA on the internet terminals at the airport.

https://esta.cbp.dhs.gov/esta/

We frantically done this but then learned the ESTA system had gone down and now there was a backlog. We were going to miss our flight now. Alls we could do was book it for the same time the next day. Once I got home checked on the internet and authorization was now approved. When booking up the flight there was no warning anywhere. At the airport there were dozens of people facing the same problem. The ESTA lasts two years from date of approval.

Hotel Del Rey.

The next day everything goes to plan and we arrive in San Jose on schedule, was a long journey though and was feeling jet-lagged. We checkin to the hotel del rey and then hit the lobby and blue marlin bar it being about 10pm.

I split with my younger wingman in the Blue marlin after meeting my first chica a girl from the Dominican republic. She started at a $100 but got her down as low as she would go at $80. She wanted paying up front but just showed her I had the cash and we got down to business. She was a good time girl and after sex I fell into a deep sleep in her arms with her stroking my head. Sometime later she woke me up and I paid her and she left.

Later my wingman knocks on my door he had been with some Tica and heading over to the Key Largo. Later I head over there but can't find him, its not that busy in there whereas the lobby and blue marlin were heaving with ticas.

As you may know the Del Rey has working girls freelancers from all over south and central America and many girls from the Dominican too with a few Russians thrown in too. Spoilt for choice really.

Second Dominican Girl.

I was sat at the Lobby bar nursing my beer and this very sexy Dominican girl joins me, She got very sexy short dress on, hugging her super fit body. I run my hand up her leg and she not got any panties on. She wants to do toda la noche or all night for $300, too much! I mean its early hours of the morning now.

She drops to $150 but won't go lower, she won't take no for an answer and sits with me at the bar for nearly an hour, in the end I agree and to the room we go. Before you can take a girl to your room, you have to register with reception in the Del Rey and they have a guest fee of $10. I have a good time with this girl, she loves watching herself being fucked from behind in the mirror. In the morning we do more of the same and I rub KY jelly into her ass and try a little anal!

Later meet up with my wingman, he had got seriously drunk went off to some other nightclub with the Tica he had met and was now minus his IPod. He returned to the Del Rey around 7am and took his first black girl who he had met standing outside the hotel, she was high on drugs. So he broke alot of mongering rules and I was worried.

No money no honey.

We then try to get some cash out of an ATM in San Jose, his card although Visa was not working. Turns out on Visa alone cannot draw out cash on international ATMs needs to be on the Visa Plus network. Can be bills like hotels and restaurants. With MasterCard needs to be on the Cirrus network. We got round it as he could pay the hotel bill at the Del Rey with his Visa and then I could give him the cash equivalent.

My first Tica. Porn star.

Del Rey daytime has quite a few girls working and some don't do the nighttime had two mature ticas offering BBBJ and CIM ANAL for $50 each, was tempted. The next girl I meet was a Tica in the lobby bar, She was pretty with a porn star body and that nerdy look with glasses. Again got her down to $80 and in the room she was a good girl giving BBBJ I had to fuck those tits and thats where eventually I shot my load.

That afternoon I'm sitting in my hotel room on the 5th floor and the room starts shaking, bloody earthquake never experienced, it was quite strong at 6. 0 magnitude and I thought for a moment that it was game over.

The next morning we were heading for the resort town of Jaco on the pacific coast.

Really enjoyed my stay at the Del Rey has to rate as one of the world top mongering hotspots. I had a room at the front of the hotel and in the early hours of the morning gets very noisy outside and kept me awake. Best to ask for a quiet room if you must stay there. Should be experienced at least once. Great to go down in that lift. Girls were mostly pro, no kissing

I have numerous non pros that want to see me again while I'm there tomorrow. I want a hotel that isn't sleezy but also won't harrass my girls at the door and charge me fees. Last time I stayed in a hotel in sabana and they didn't charge me fees but they gave me dirty looks and weren't very nice by the second day! IS the royal dutch still around. Also someone these. Hoteles en San José te recomiendo Hotel Balmoral. Hotel Presidente o Casa 69. Son muy buenos.

Anyone had any experience with these and do they charge fees or will they give me dirty looks for non pros?If you want to be downtown I would stay at Hotel La Amistad.

Yes the Royal Dutch is still there on the main drag. Think it is 2nd Ave. Their rooms run about $ 45-50. 00 a night and are nice. You should not have any problems there with bringing chicas up to your room. There is also a full casino on the bottom floor and an elevator up to the rooms. Restaurant on the 2nd floor has a pretty good inexpensive lunch at noon too.

If you will go there in the evening and see the 'night guy' at the front desk he will give you a discount on your room for cash. During the daytime there are girls on the front desk. They will charge you full price. So go by there around - 7 PM till around 10 PM and see the 'night guy" for a deal on the rooms.

If you do not get into the Royal Dutch Hotel then the Hotel Castillo or the La Amastad Hotel in Barro Ammon - near the Zoo are good choices also.

Perhaps the best place is the Sportsman's Lodge...$ 50.00 and up.........but you will need advance reservations there.

To meet non-pros.....you need 'game' and need to be able to speak reasonably good Spanish.............then try going to the supermarkets, the shopping malls, and literally pick them out and introduce yourself, chat them up, offer to buy them a Coca Cola at the food spots there.......and you will be surprised how well that will work for getting you some "dates with non P4P young gals."

I am entirely too old for that at 66 years...but it works well for the younger guys who can hustle around a bit.

Having spent a few very chilled out days in Jaco.

http://www.internationalsexguide.info/forum/showthread.php?345-Jaco-Jaco-Beach&p=1165006&viewfull=1#post1165006

Return to San Jose from Jaco in a minivan we book in Claritas bar for $100. For our last two nights in Costa Rica.

Staying at the Sportsman Lodge. Checkin and I'm staying in the Pura Vida room and my wingman is next door. Very comfy rooms with a packed fridge, room safe etc. Its around 3pm and we relax in the Sportsman lodge bar for an hour and have something to eat. Alot quieter than the Del Rey. A dozen or so girls around, seems to be popular with the more senior USA guys.

We head into town we look in a few bars including the Morazan hotel and they are all completely empty. Eventually we make our way back to the Blue Marlin bar in the hotel del Rey. We just cannot stay away. There are some lovely barmaids in the hotel del rey. It not long before we got two girls we are both happy with and take them back to the Sportsman lodge, take taxi from outside the Del Rey. Cost 800CRC.

My girl is pretty young tica, long black hair, olive skin, big brown eyes, curvacious figure and shaved pussy.

The service was not bad and paid her the agreed 40, 000 CRC. We spend the remainder of our time in the Sportsman lodge playing some pool. More girls about in the evening and a few are really cute. But we shot our load so not biting. Seems the girls freelancing in the Sportsman require some sort of membership to be able to ply their trade their. Were Dominicans, Ticas and Nicas. At midnight the bar closes and the Sportsman lodge goes completely quiet, another big difference to the Del Rey, over there the night is just beginning.

On my last day in San Jose, I try to find a couple of massage places using this map,

http://adultcostarica.net/

But can't locate them. Eventually I take a normal massage in the hotel Diana. Get some sovenirs and make my way back to the Blue Marlin bar hotel del rey as I'm on the lookout for a girl in particular who only works an afternoon shift in the Del Rey.

A few minutes I notice her and buy her a drink. She won't come down from a $100 unless her friend joins us too and then can have both for $150. But not interested. Just want flower and so we take another taxi back to the Sportsman. A doorman checks the girls identity and signs her in but there is no joiner fee at the Sportsman for when you bring a girl back or when you take one working inside.

Flower is a nice girl, got lovely tits and a tight pussy. She friendly girl too but young the experience neither girlfriend or pornstar.

That evening we pay our departure tax in the Sportsman for $28. My wingman wants to get drunk and go over to the Hotel Del Rey but we got an early flight and need to check out at 5:30AM. Eventually he takes two girls in the Sportsman lodge one looking like a supermodel, the best looking I had seen.

In the morning we have a room call and my wingman not look good, been hitting that minibar. We make it to the airport OK and as have an hour to spare he falls asleep. When its time to board the plane I wake him up and he is not looking any better. As we are about to board the plane he collapses and then he cannot fly. He had to much to drink. I warned him against this and not prepared to wait at the airport for another 24 hours nursing his hangover so leave him there. He makes it home the next day minis his luggage.

Where do you find rooms at SL for $50. 00 unless there is a special discount that you get? Their website shows $59. 00 a night as the cheapest room and that's the small room next to the bar that's really noisy. The next cheapest room is $69. 00 a night. Where do you find the $50. 00 price that you stated? Just asking for future reference. Thanks.You see Bill the owner of SL, and tell him you want a nice room for 3-4-5 nights and you will pay cash. He should take care of you.

http://mongerplanet.com/2011/05/17/mongering-in-san-jose-costa-rica/You are paying too much for your transportation in a mini van from San Jose to Jaco or vice a versa. The standard rate for the one way trip should be right at $ 30. 00 per person. Either way with pickup at your hotel. You will need to call Greyline or Interbus for reservations in advance.

You can also join Costa Rica Ticas and that will get you I believe it is a 15% discount which turns $59 into $50. You then get 15% (I think) off your food and bar tab there too.

I had done it at Presidente hotel a while back same way. Depending on the occupancy rate or reservations they will do it.

Generally I never book online. Always call the hotel directly and talk to whoever in charge. Most important is to tell them you had stayed there frequently and always got a good deal.

If you are going with friends and need more than one room it is good also.

You need to pretend as big gambler for the hotels with connected casinoes. They usually lower the price.

I'm not exactly sure why this is a re-occuring theme here talking about CRT discounts. Every place discounts, you do not need a wonder club badge to get a discount. It is a normal lifestyle in CR to get discounts, that's why taxis recommend places and when they drop you off they stick around to try to get a kick back for dropping you off. Not to mention the best places to go are the ones off the beat and path that aren't included on CRT discounts. With a little bit of research and exploring you can wonder into some pretty amazing things at amazing rates. Or you can get gringo fucked and live in gringo town. If you want to know a good way to spend the $30 or so money it would cost to sign up for CRT. Hire a translator, for 30 you could probably get someone for close to 2 full days. I speak enough spanish now to get around but on my first trip didn't speak a lick and luckily met up with a guy who lived there and showed me around and got me super discounts. There more than enough info in this forum don't waste your money going to another more expensive one. These forums should be free, the money they make of advertising would probably astonish some. I own a forum and I'm quite happy with the ad dollars.

Ok. I am not a cheerleader or a troll for crt. I like the ISG for other places I might visit DR or Thailand. But the facts are. ISG has become little to very weak on the on goings in san jose.

Now what you will get with the crt card. If staying at the sportmens for the next few months, you will receive a 20% discount on rooms and anything bought in the bar and restaurant. If you stay more than 4 nights. All other times of the year its 10%

If you are going for the 1st time or go 5 times a year (like myself) why would you not have it. Keeps you up dated on everything going on. Photos and trip reports of girls and the members.

I look and read the site everyday and would truly miss it, trolls and good old boys. Yes they are on there (I might be one of the people the Pirate is writing about. Who cares!

Trust me some of the friendships I have are due to this site and the crt. As they have kept me in contact with guys I have met on my trips.

I am not one that pisses away money but the crt membership is money well spent. The owner of the site reads the posts and posts himself. Hell I even met him once and we went to srtip clubs together. Nice guy. Just like the other 99% of the members you will meet

I don't know the Pissed off Pirate (Dirty Pirate) but maybe he has some reason not to care for crt but that's his problem.

Facts are. If your going to san jose. Join CRT you will have a better trip. I am "chilimike" on that site as well. You can ask me any question and I will answer it. Either here or on crt. After 35 trips I know the area and girls pretty well.

After 35 trips I know the area and girls pretty well. Facts are? That's a huge opinion, one I highly disagree with. You will have a worst trip if you join CRT and listen in my opinion. You might even spend more. Now if you don't like to negotiate and don't like to search for the fountain of youth, then yeah go to the same old places and get a 10-20% discount. But if you want to pay half and find hidden little gems, well CRT and ISG are not going to help you. Go to Del Rey, Beatle Bar, HLH, Sporstmen Lounge all the normal places, but explore! CRT will tell you exploration will get you killed or mugged, which you probably have a great chance of that happening in Chicago or New York than in San Jose. If I go to a hotel and they only give me 20% off I walk out, but I don't look for hotels I look for house rentals on the beach or something. Everything in Costa Rica is negotiable except maybe Hotel Del Rey which I myself have never and will never stay in just because I do look for that fountain of youth, that pot of gold. My best times have been at the places everyone told me not to go to. I have literally sat down with the owner of an establishment that is signed up with CRT for a discount and we laughed at the fact that anyone who asks will get a discount if it's possible at that time. This particular owner was not a big fan of CRT either and he was a member atleast when I was a member on CRT. I won't say all CRT members are wack jobs, but there are a high number of wack jobs on that site. I think in my trips there I met maybe 1 out of 15 guys from that site that didn't seem a little odd to me. I go alone and every trip I make friends and even on one trip I had some loaded guys pay for everything just to have me hang around with them, this included hotel, girls, drinks and flight back to US. I get along with most people, but if I have a weird feeling about someone then I normally just go with that gut reaction. For instance one CRT member I met took a bite out of some tica's pussy after sniffin a little too much coke, although I find it hilarious it is still really screwed up. At the end of the day my belief is that forums are great for chit chat, but you really aren't going to learn that much on a forum. Maybe pre select a girl to screw or something but if you really want to have an amazing trip scouting new places is the best way and has always worked for me on every trip. You don't need a forum to tell you Del Rey is the place in San Jose, or Beatle bar is in jaco, you could read that all over the internet. In my eyes CRT is more like a really screwed up fraternity that likes to take mass walk abouts with large groups, which to me seems very dumb because I'd rather have the number of guys low and girls high if I go somewhere to get a better deal. Fact, you will save money if you do not join CRT and have no problem asking a hotel or person in general if they can give you a better rate. If you don't speak spanish use the $30 on a translator, you walk in with a CRT card and they will say we got this gringo monger now. Walk in with a local and you will get local prices.

06-25-11, 18:21
I think all 3 of you (Madisonguy, Dirty Pirate and Chilimike) are right in your own way.

If you are a seasoned monger especially in Latin America then you will not need the advice or hand holding provided by membership in CRT. But most people who have never left home before and have little or no knowledge of Spanish can greatly benefit from a place like CRT. For instance the discounts at hotels. It does not occur to Newbies to even ask for that nor do they realize that they get a better rate when they pay cash. They are so geared to paying with credit cards and not negotiating for any thing. This is why the girls at the DR love the newbies who find their price of 'cien' a good deal and go for it.

To me membership has been a boon and even though I do not need it now I have found it very helpful.

Trust in the Tico way, LOL. There is no need for a CRT membership in Costa Rica.You are correct but I belong to CRT to support the site and its invaluable information, not so much for the discounts. The CRT site like here also has great info about mongering venues around the world.

Mr Jetsetter
06-26-11, 02:43
I think part of the problem some people have with CRT is that it appears that some of the posts here seem to be commercials for the site and not advice or recommendations from members of CRT to help others. There's a big difference in recommending something because it really helps you and / or others and recommending a site because someone has a financial interest in it or knows someone that does have a financial interest. Most people know who runs / operates ISG and they know it's a legitimate website that is truly out to help people. Does anyone know who owns / runs CRT and do they have their site to make money or to help other people interested in the same thing. I think some of the distrust in CRT is that it appears they are nothing more then a telemarketer trying to get you to purchase their service and don't really care about helping people. I'm only asking because that seems to be what's causing the arguments here and it's always nice to know who owns / runs these sites. I don't belong to CRT because I travel all over the world and not just to CR so it's not feasible to me. Also my work covers all the cost of my food, hotel, entertainment, transfers, etc so I'm not worried about the discounts. Just a thought.

As a proud member of both the ISG and CRT who peruses both boards on a regular basis, I'm fairly certain I have NEVER encountered a post on this board submitted by a "shill" for CRT. This includes my posts on this subject, which have been motivated by the desire to share the fact that CRT membership has literally saved me close to a thousand dollars over my dozen or so trips and provided valuable info and contacts. While I have never met Tomas, the owner / administrator of CRT, I can assure you he is well-known and highly reputable, just as Jackson is, who also charges a membership fee. You can actually peruse CRT without purchasing a membership and glean a ton of valuable info. And if you were actually to take the time to do so, you would quickly realize the error of your assumptions:e.g.,"nothing more than a telemarketer trying to get you to purchase their service and don't really care about helping people."

I'm glad you are financially secure enough not to worry about discounts. But the offered discounts aren't the full story. As an information resource, CRT is VASTLY superior to this board.

Enough said. Got to email CRT and demand my $20 for my positive posts!

I'm sorry, this CRT argument is like a bunch of mice running on a wheel. A couple of us have already mentioned that if you ask for a discount in CR you will get one in 99% of the places. So the argument that a noob wouldn't know that is out the window, because in reading this thread he learned. Also the being said if CRT were such a strong forum don't you think they would teach people where to go and what discounts to get without needing to be in a club. To me that's a much more valuable forum. I don't really like the idea that this forum charges, but it's a little less which is a step in the right direction. As I said before in advertising alone a forum makes a good amount of money. The only reason I can see charging is so that it keeps wives / girlfriends out of the picture area or something like that. I myself could care less and post my pictures on facebook anyway, but some may not be as secure with being a Charlie Sheen. To me forums should be a free place for people to learn or chat about a subject. The whole paid part is a little exploit, it's like a higher priced drink for a stripper, you don't want to buy them but at the same time you sometimes can't help yourself just to learn just a little more about her and how good she may be. Also someone wrote that CRT was informational about other countries also, that's a really far fetched remark. I personally like this forum better because it does give me some insight to other places I have on my monger wish list, CRT didn't do much of that at all.

I'll try and make this simple for you since you obviously didn't get the content of my last post. There is a big difference between an "assumption" and an "opinion" about a subject. I don't have a dog in this fight but apparently some people do. I really could care less about CRT and what it offers. I highly doubt that it's contents are far superior to ISG unless your whole life is spent in CR and your views are limited to one country. Since my report was talking in general, and you took it personally, it sounds like you may have ulterior motives for being so defensive about CRT. If you want to use it, use it. No one here cares including myself. I also find it interesting that you can vouch for someone's integrity and reputation when you have never met them. That's careless and reckless for a whole number or reasons. I was simply stating why I thought people were negative toward CRT on this forum, it wasn't a personal opinion at all. You need to read slower and comprehend what you read before trying to make an intelligent argument. No need for personal attacks, it just shows your immaturity. If you want to be a sheep, go ahead and be one. I won't begrudge you that. But please don't tell me what my "assumptions" are when there wasn't an "assumption" in the post.

I did not take your post personally, and I challenge you to cite a "personal attack" in my post. Perhaps you need to read slower and comprehend what you read before trying to make an intelligent argument! Yes, maybe I could have done a better job of constructing my post. BTW, I can readily discern a couple of "personal attacks" in yours: e.g., my "immaturity" and being a "sheep." And you did question the credibility of a number of ISG members, myself included, who have honestly submitted positive feedback re CRT IN ORDER TO BE HELPFUL to members of this board. And yes, I can "carelessly" and "recklessly" vouch for the owner and chief administrator of CRT because I'm a longtime member, a number of my expat friends in San Jose know him personally, and he is a frequent moderator and contributor on his own board.

Jousting aside, I truly hope you have a good time on your upcoming trip, and I hope you provide us with a trip report, including your impressions of your stay at the Del Rey. Some guys love it there, others bash it big time.

I personally like this forum better because it does give me some insight to other places I have on my monger wish list, CRT didn't do much of that at all.CRT is indeed somewhat informational on other countries as well, mainly due to the contributions of a few hall-of-fame posters. However, in this regard, it does not remotely compare to the ISG. Believe it or not, I frequently refer CRT members to the ISG when responding to their queries about other destinations. IMHO, the ISG rocks! It has been an invaluable resource in supporting my previous trips to Thailand, the Philipinnes, Curacao, Argentina, Peru, and Prague.

I promise, my LAST comment on this subject!

Ok. I am not a cheerleader or a troll for crt. I like the ISG for other places I might visit DR or Thailand. But the facts are. ISG has become little to very weak on the on goings in san jose.

Now what you will get with the crt card. If staying at the sportmens for the next few months, you will receive a 20% discount on rooms and anything bought in the bar and restaurant. If you stay more than 4 nights. All other times of the year its 10%

If you are going for the 1st time or go 5 times a year (like myself) why would you not have it. Keeps you up dated on everything going on. Photos and trip reports of girls and the members.

I look and read the site everyday and would truly miss it, trolls and good old boys. Yes they are on there (I might be one of the people the Pirate is writing about. Who cares!

Trust me some of the friendships I have are due to this site and the crt. As they have kept me in contact with guys I have met on my trips.

I am not one that pisses away money but the crt membership is money well spent. The owner of the site reads the posts and posts himself. Hell I even met him once and we went to srtip clubs together. Nice guy. Just like the other 99% of the members you will meet

I don't know the Pissed off Pirate (Dirty Pirate) but maybe he has some reason not to care for crt but that's his problem.

Facts are. If your going to san jose. Join CRT you will have a better trip. I am "chilimike" on that site as well. You can ask me any question and I will answer it. Either here or on crt. After 35 trips I know the area and girls pretty well. ChiliMike is one of the more knowledgable posters I have encountered on this or any other board. Want some heads-up info on "out-of-the-way" MPs in San Jose (e.g., the Calle 6 area)? He's the man.

CRT has its merits. And you do get the money back very quick with all the discounts.

I travel to Costa Rica all the time. So factor that.

You do not have to join this fourm or CRT to get lots of good info.

Yes I have got discounts above and behond CRT level. Due to paying cash. I would never learned that one can haggle over the price, until I read about it on CRT (Ticos fovorite past time)

Lots of the Ex-Pats have a card. And that says something.

As far as Tomas, I have met him and he puts alot of work into the site, and puts up with alot of BS. If he can make a few bucks, great. Does Jackson do this for the fun of it?

All fourms have the supper monger know it alls, Relax and get some tail where ever you like to visit.

BTW Chillimike told a great story about getting a BJ in the bushes on Calle 6 on the other site.

Hasta Pronto amigos.

You know what CRT and this forum lack. Non gringo deals around the world. You know some guys out there have some sweet deals on vacation rentals. Craigslist is gringo priced and it's hard to find that awesome deal on a beach house or up scale vacation rental. I'm hoping that I can find one in jaco my next visit, I've heard direct through the caretakers are the best deal if the house is vacant, hopefully I can swing something like that.

Hotel Little Havana is having a holiday "Leather & Lace" party this coming Saturday, July 2nd, from 3-8pm. Guests dressed in bathrobes or smoking jackets will receive $40 worth of raffle tickets. Not sure what the prizes are, but I'll use my imagination. Should be an interesting time. I will be in San Jose from July 1-9.

Thank you Dr Howard and Mr Jetsetter. My feelings are, if I was to run into either of you in san jose we would have a great time and hit the DR and would enjoy our vacation time, as for madisonguy. I will say it again (and I love this site. But the last 3 years. As far as san jose. IT SUCKS, the photo area for this month has one photo in it. (1) and that girl looks more asian then spanish, if not for Bundaman (a respected crt member who always posts his photos in crt) and his photos were in may. Next photos. You can find were in March.

So I am am looking to make a trip to san jose. This isn't a good site, for photos or updated info. Crt just has more. And you can view crt for free just not everthing. Again my point. (and I have a lifetime membership) if I stay at sportmens for my next trip 7 nights it saves me over $150. And the item I feel is worth more than the $$$ savings. I am sitting eating lunch in the sportmens. A girl I"ve have talking to, ask's. The same lines. Whats your name. Are you staying here. Lets go for sexo. I get her name and when she goes to the bano. I can do a search on her on crt. You can see a review of her services, a photo and what a member might have paid. Just that alone can save you $$$ by either not picking her or. Taking her. Try doing that here!

Madisonguy. You said crt is bad on information about other places. I gain more info on my next trip to granda on crt then I did here. And for sosusa D. R its split. Both sites have good true info

Any new guys or others who have been to san jose but never left the DR and Keylargo. You have alot more to see and do in san jose. If I am in town any and everyone is welcome to go on a mp tour I take daily and and info I can share about girls you might be interested in the DR or Kl (or sportmens)

Dirty Pirate I might of had you mixed up with madisonguy post. Sorry I made those comments. About being angry. If were in town during the same time. First drink on me.

Hey all, I have to go back to San Jose for work in July, from the 21st through the 25th. I sent the Del Rey an email asking for the room prices for those dates. I was originally told that the rooms were $83. 00 a night for a standard room with a king or queen bed and window. This was their Green Season rate. When I sent them my credit card information and travel information they responded by telling me that they were having a special on the standard rooms for only $55. 00 a night during those dates. I called just to verify that it wasn't a joke but it was true. My room with a king / queen bed and window will be $55. 00 a night for the 4 nights I'll be there. Also, I booked a hotel transfer with Interbus and it was only $12. 50 each way. Never used them before but reviews seemed to be mostly good. Beats the $25. 00 the taxi's charge. I'll let you all know how they are when I get there.Wielendank, vielendank.

You know what CRT and this forum lack. Non gringo deals around the world.Factually untrue. If you read the VIP reports, for example, there are dozens of reports of mongering venues and bars on Calle 6, along with many discussion of the food in Mercado Central and out of the way Sodas. Yes, most of the information is posted on the same places. Also, take a look at some of the trip reports on classes like Lima, for example. A few of us have posted a great deal of info about the Troc, which is about as ungringo as you get (I do think it has gone up to 10 bucks a session, however). Many rip reports from other countries tend to be very extensive when they are posted on CRT. But, you would have to pay to find out.

If you want to respond, stick the facts please and non- disrespectful critiques- I saw you already have a pretty extensive pissing context with someone on the Tijuana board-that type of acrimony is what often discourages the best posters.

Try the Pirate, but also the Sportsman's for freelancers, Hotel Little Havana for a good MP, and try one or two of the mid level MPs off Paseo Colon. I don't knowhat they charge these days. But ONLY tip for out of the world service. I suggest, if you intent on tiping, telling the chica what your idea of killer servcie is, so she can work toward the tip. Mentioning the posiblity before hand provides insentive. Again, only tip if it is great.

Howdy,

I just booked a flight on American Airlines for $486 from SFO to SJO through Dalls with a 1 hour 15 min. Layover on the way down and goes through Miami with a 3 hour 50 min layover on the way back. Not bad, I thought. I'd been watching for a few months and mostly the fares had been in the upper 600s.

So, anyone down there who wants to hang out during that time PM me and let's do it!

BTW, the CRT membership is a great deal and I'll be utilizing it again. I don't know what all the negative press is for regarding the card. It easily pays for itself in a few days or even in a day. Plus the CRT site is awesome for info and I met a lot of the brothers down there last time.

And paraphrasing with some liberties the words of Forrest Gump,"and that's about all I"m going to 'say" about that."

My fourth trip to SJ, looks like only a few things have changed. Love using ISG, I have mongered much of the world using only this website. Please keep it clean and useful, I have wasted alot of time reading these irrelevant posts and I'm sure those people know who they are.

Anyway, I will be there the 18th. 21st, just a little over a hour out of Miami.

I found a dentist wanted $350, offered cash and getting porcelain crowns for $300. Each! Savings pay for the trip!

I will be at the Sportsman if anyone cares to wing or have a drink.

Take Care All.

It's only my second trip to CR, but been all over Asia. I can't recall if the SI has a pickup service from the airport or not and what it costs. Anyone know?

RedRed, the SL stopped arranging for pick up at the airport for a while now. I was last there in April and as far as I know this had not changed. You can get market price and a safe ride by using the window which is to the left through the last set of doors before you exit to the street. Do not stop at the taxi windows along the way since you are likely to be ripped off. You may be quoted $25US, but should be able to get them down to $20. 00 easily. Pura vida. Bunda.

Bunda.Not sure if $25US is the going rate anymore. I have seen prices at the inside window continue to increase. I was here in May and they ran the meter to Hotel Morazan, (next to HDR). Cost me $30. Just returned here yesterday and when the inside taxis bombarded me (AeroPuerto Taxi, they have to charge for that prime space), I told them that I had a driver. Went outside and took one of the white shirt taxi to Morazan for $22, with no problem. Not sure about all of their crosschecks, but they put your name on a log before leaving the airport. Only drawback was i had to wait about five minutes with the driver while they bring the car around.

Weather was cloudy yesterday at midday, but started raining in the afternoon through the night. This morning was clear, but another light and steady rain now.

Good luck.

Go to the shuttlebus web site and book your ticket. They use Pay Pal so it is safe. Should cost $11:40 to $12. 50 from the airport to your hotel. The driver will wait for you at the arrivals gate. Collect your bags and walk out the door and look for a driver holding a sign with your name.

Taxis are between $25 to $30 now.

Thanks for the taxi / transportation advice. I have another question.

Ok, I booked the standard regular room-Courtyard in the SL for four nights in Sept. (on waiting list for the fifth night. $60 a

Night with the CRT discount, I believe). However, now I'm wondering if it's going to be too noisy for me. At what time does it get quiet and when does the noise pick up again? (Does it pick up when the bar / restaurant opens up again. And when does that happen? In the morning?)

Thanks for the info. Do I have to jump to the standard deluxe room deluxe room at $100 in order to ensure a quiet time? I'm just trying to figure out how noisy it's going to be or if I should just stay somewhere else that's quieter.

Thanks for any info. I've been trying to contact the Castillo, but can't reach them. Poor customer service from that hotel. No way that should happen.

Thanks!

I always catch a taxi on the departure level after exchanging money at the bank on the same level, near where you pay your departure tax. I simply offer them $20 or 10, 000 colones, and I have never been turned down.

I have used Interbus as well on a couple of trips, with mixed results. One time things went quickly and smoothly, another time we sat around the airport for over an hour waiting for a couple whose plane was late.

Thanks!The 3-4 rooms on the 'courtyard' at the Sportsmans Lodge are not too noisy. But if you retire early. Don't expect to get a good rest until the courtyard closed down- at 12 Midnight. After that, the bar is shut down and everyone leaves and it is quiet.

If you can 'live with that' then you should be fairly comfortable in your room there. If not then go for one of the other rooms on the interior of the hotel. Where the noise will not be a problem.

Contact Darin the hotel manager at the Castillo. I have stayed there a number of times, and it is my favorite hotel in all of SJ. The Castillo has a website, and you should be able to book a room thru the site....they are very popular as is the Sportsman's Lodge...so reservations are pretty much mandatory at both hotels.

If you do not get into either of the above then try the La Amastad Hotel...it is only about 3-4 more blocks up from the Sportsman's Lodge is very nice and comfortable, chica friendly, and a good place to stay.

If you do not get into either of the above hotels...then try the La Amistad Hotel...it is only about 3-4 blocks on up from the Sportsmans Lodge...and is a very good place to stay...rooms run about $ 50-60.00 a night....also 100 % chica friendly to bring your gals back to your room. Search Google for the web site of La Amistad San Jose, CR.

Hey watcher,

A few points, for the taxi just walk out to the street and stand on the sidewalk and look. A driver will come upto you. Just say where you are going and tell them what you want to pay, I say sportmens for $20. The driver will cry but will take it. If he is cool (good driver not trying to kill us) I will give him $25. Works everytime to the point now I have guys come up to me and say ok. We go for $20

Not sure if you are a crt guy but you would of know that the pres is off the hotel list for our hobby. It started with the dress code. Then who they liked or didn't like and now to this. You need to get out of there asap. Same thing happen to me on my first trip 6 years ago staying across the street. They would let me bring in a girl but charge me $20 a shot. Day 1 my extra bill was more than my hotel. I checked out the next day.

Sorry to hear about your experience. Things may have changed since April. I've never had a problem quickly finding a driver standing around in that area willing to take me for $20-25 flat. Returning home one of the drivers sitting outside the SL would always take me for the same price. Prices may be going up since April. I am going in Sept. and will post a report. Hopefully the debt ceiling issue gets worked out in time otherwise the Dollar's exchange rate is going to suffer. Bunda.

Another friend arrived today and he did just as you stated above and he got a flat rate of $25.My last two experiences have found that the taxi's at the arrival exit are all metered and you pay the meter fare, non-negotiable. Coming back, you can negotiate any price with a local taxi. That said, in Panama, the trick is to exit the terminal, go up to where arriving passengers are being dropped off and negotiate a fare to go back to the city. Sometimes you can grab a taxi for half the normal fare (they have to go back to the city anyway, right?).

They stayed here last year and had no problems with girls. I guess they changed the rules.I have had very good experiences staying at Presidente numerous times over the years. I remember when they had beds which move all over the floor during sex. They were not bolted down. Once they re-modelled everything went downhill for hobbyists. I do not know if they still have whirpool and sauna on top floor. Previously you need to reserve it for one hour, take a chica and enjoy.

They never bothered about girls coming in. Ofcourse if you want to bring more than one, bring one girl first wait for half hour and go and bring another girl. They would generally register all girls but they had no way of knowing when the first girl left.

Best thing is sitting at included breakfast at the restaurent and watching all the passersbye. Sometimes if I recognised a girl I had, all I had to do was nod her over. These are the girls who did not earn any money and will gladly stay with you for $30 sometimes a whole day.

CR is relatively speaking on the pricier side but there are still deals to be had if you take the time to visit the tico MPs, the sodas for meals, and if you really have time on your hands, the public bus from the airport to your hotel (I've never dared to do this one but my friends have and they ended up walking blocks to the Sportsmans with their luggage).

I remember one time sitting there with some guys talking about the previous nights fun, and these two American girls walked by and recognized me and stopped to say Hi, we had been on the same river rafting trip a couple days before, I kept thinking the whole time they'd figure out the "real" reason I was in CR.

I am having "Costa Rica withdrawal symptoms". That's right. Usually I am able to go down to CR at least once a year, sometimes 2-3 times, but right now it's been about 3 years and I'm jonesing! I'm a long-time member here but just have not had time to pursue my "hobby" in the past few years.

What I want to know is: How have things changed during the past 3 years? Any new restrictions or laws? Any new policies regarding mongering? Any new clubs, massage parlors or bars I should know about? I am of course very familiar with the DR, KL and SL, Little Havana and New Fantasy (? Not sure I am recalling that name right. The other mp down the street from Little Havana. Is New Fantasy still there? I quit going there due to lack of hot chicks but when it first opened, it was excellent!)

What with the US economy being in the dumper, I am guessing that prices have not risen at the Del Rey, Little Havana etc. Am I right?

What's the current price at Little Havana for 1 girl / 1 hour?

What's the going rate for a Spanish speaking gringo who knows how to get a good price, at the Del Rey?

Any other news? Any closures, crackdowns, changes I should know about, during the past 3 years?

Just want to keep abreast and find out what to expect if I am lucky enough to finally get to go down there in the near future.

Thanks for answering any or all of the above questions!

Thanks for answering any or all of the above questions!Hey there Johnny Sax! I feel your pain. I haven't been down there in 5 years, but I'm going to be going back down early next month for a few days. One thing I know is new is the president. It's a chick and she was coming down hard on the fun, but as usual the business eventually wins out. How can you stop the oldest profession? I heard the old ZB is under new ownership and doing well. Prices $50 for the hour. More than I want to pay so I'll just keep hitting the little dives in Paseo Colon. From what I've gathered prices are still approximately the same. I heard one of my old faves is still at her locale. Guess she'll stay there till retirement.

Two things I need to know is if the exit tax is still $26 and what the orange taxis are charging for a lift downtown.

My hotel is still the same rate, and the dollar exchange is still approximately the same. My favorite pharmacy has closed, so I guess I'll have to pay what the street pharmacies charge. I used to use Farmacia Alvarez out of Alajuela, but no more. Good prices. Good service. Delivery to my hotel and all kinds of drugs too, not just the boner one.

Will post a report when I get back.

Exit tax is $26 still and airport taxi costs have skyrocketed in my opinion. I have never had an issue using any of the pirate taxis outside, though I am sure many will disagree on using them. The price is always 5. 10 bucks cheaper though.

30, 000 colones for an hour at Hotel Little Havana.

30, 000 colones for an hour at New Fantasy.

Girls at both places will be all over you for tips.

If you know where IDEM is, Relax is across the street, white building, can't miss it. 18, 000 for an hour there and hit or miss on the chicas for sure.

No real issues regarding any sort of crackdowns, still chicas all over the place.

You can PM me with any sort of specific questions if you like.

I went to CR after 2 years and found that there is a creeping up of prices for the girls / food / hotels.

Taxis from the airport going from $25 to $30.

DelRey girls usually agreeing to $80 rather than $60 like in 2008.

Hotel Little Havana $50 / hour and New Fantasy $45 / hour.

Idem girls very nice looking $60 / hour and 42 for condom if you do not have your own.

Relax across the street $38 / hour and $20 / half hour.

Calle 6 houses around $20 / hour. Girl quality varies.

Girls at SL also want around $80 / hour.

These are my presonal experiences YMMV.

Good hotel deals at Sportsman and HLH if a CRT member. Get one day free stay if you stay 4 days. Check the CRT site.

Also avoid the Presidante Hotel it is not girl friendly any more. The New York Bar is closed and opened under another name. I do not know any thing about strip clubs but some people say The Pirate Club is interesting with Lezzy shows etc.

Hey all, just got to CR today and flew into San Jose. I booked my shuttle on Interbus prior to leaving home as has been discussed previously on this forum. As soon as I walked out of the door there was a gentleman there with a sign in his hand with my name on it. No wait at all. He called the bus and it was there in under 2 minutes. I noticed that under my name was the flight number and airline I was on. There were no other passengers he had to wait on so left right away. It's a typical bus, nice bus, that would hold probably 7 adults with luggage. Rode into town and dropped off right at the front door of the Del Rey. Total cost was $12. 00 USD. Much better then any taxi that I used and also a little more then 1/2 the cost. Forgot to mention that there were at least 10 girls in the lobby when I arrived at 1pm that were easily 9's/10's. I was kind of shocked since when I was here two months ago the afternoon girls were not that great. I didn't indulge. Flew from China, to LAX, to ATL, to SJO and had to get some sleep. I'll report later on the ones I find tonight.Thanks a million Vielendank but I'm not giving my cc information to any cr company just to save $12. The price is right. The website nice, but I never use my cc away from home. Just a superstition if you get my drift.

someone correct me if i am wrong in my assumption. i will be in san jose in a couple of weeks, and i might just give it a shot. i usually do not, because there are so many other cheaper options around town during the day.

from my observations, for the most part the stunners save it for the evening usually starting between 8pm and on and most usually dissapear by midnight after one or more dates. however, as everyone knows at the del rey the price shoots up at night and is not necessariy commensurate with the service you will receive. during the day and into early evening you can usually find a nice chica for 50-70us. service is still hit or miss but screen them well or repeat with past quality performers and you will do well for the price. some of my most memorable sessions have been $50-60 del rey day time deals. surely the price contributes to making it great, but i've had numerous quality sessions for that price range.


during the day the girls will still give you the $80-$100 bs starting bid, but walk away and they will quickly come down. when i am feeling particularly porn starish my m / o (and that of some of my friends) is to hit relax, krysis or another low end mp at 10 or 11am to hopefully session with a diamond in the rough, after which we get lunch and then head over to the del rey. after being drained at the mp, i really get my money's worth with the dr chica (s). will be back for labor day weekend, can't wait. bunda.

Thanks Bunda that just made my up my mind for me, looks live Thailand in December.Levan:

I posted the link for infomational purposes only as I do not feel that the San Jose forum gets updated as often and expediently as it should be, especially in light of the incident (s) described in the article. Each of us must of course take our saftey and best interest into consideration when choosing a mongering destination. I will be staying at the Sportsmans the entirety of my Labor Day weekend trip despite the incidents. IMHO the SL is as safe and secure as it can be under the circumstances. The guards are armed, the iron fence is locked at midnight when the bar closes and the rooms have electronic safes. Of course, even these precautions can be circumvented by an inside job / employee involvement, which is apparently what occured with the incident at the SL described in the article. Whenver I noticed the armed guards at the SL I always imagined the possibility that some or all could turn. Also, I always figured that showing your key to the guard to gain access after Midnight obviously wasn't foolproof. I am most grateful that the causalities were limited to computer equipment.


I understand the Bill (the owner of SL) is implementing remedial measures in light of the incident which include guest lists which must be checked by the guards at the door before anyone will be allowed entry, restrictions on the guards, and credit card encryption software. Bill has been posting on CRT almost daily with updates and responding to questions and concerns.


I have a friend / client who lives in Pattaya, Thailand. I havn't been to Thailand or Asia for that matter yet because of the distance but from what he says and what I read it's not a beacon for non-violence and that's putting it mildly. Bottom line is that as much as we like to let loose on these trips we always have to maintain our wits and keep our safety in mind, or a have sober wingman to impose on. Best of luck, Bunda man.

OK Got in to town today. Mucho calor. Took somebody else's advice to make a $20 offer to an orange taxi on the second level and it worked like a charm. Very exhausted after the flight and all the traveling broo ha ha. Did make it to Oasis. 12k for half, and 16k for an hour. Five girls that I could see. I would do them all. They were all young and semi good looking at least. I had a very good session. It's good to be back.

Best of luck, Bunda man.Having been to both SJ and Pattaya; these are the differences I've noticed:

1. Security Guards in SJ are a joke. Minimum wage earners and give them a gun. Police in SJ are only slightly higher on the food chain, but don't expect to see any near the Del Rey or Key largo.

I once took a girl up to my room at the HDR that I met in the Blue Marlin. When I came out of the shower I found her searching under my mattress. I kicked her ass out before I had given her any money. Security at the HDR told me it was my problem because I chose the girl, LOL.

2. The crime in Pattaya, from what I've read, because I didn't see any on my first trip last year, comes when you get too drunk and act a fool. There are reported news stories I have read of girls slipping drugs into an unsuspecting saps drink, then the sap wakes up and money and jewelry. All gone. There is a story posted in the Pattaya forum today of a guy describing how his pocket was picked by a ladyboy on Walking Street as she was grabbing his cock. Where it happened appears suspect because he said it was on Walking Street at 3 a. M. The reason I say suspect is because Walking Street at 3 a. M. Is still very lively. The fact of the matter is that the guy appears to have been drunk as a skunk.

The correlation between the two areas is that there is very little police presence in both places.

Both locations offer places you should not walk at night.

You can gather a lot of information on this site on the do's and don't's of all the mongering locations.

Bottom line is don't get drunk, don't carry a lot of money or flashy jewlery and draw attention to yourself.

Sometimes venturing into sketchy areas to find the cheapest pussy, can cost you in the long run.

Know your wherabouts and respect the locals.

Back to Pattatya in three weeks!

The Corobici Hotel is about 6-7 miles from downtown San Jose. About half way to the airport. I had a friend stay there, and he said they would not let him bring two girl at a time up to his room. Plus they have a chica charge to boot. I would avoid this place and stay somewhere else.

I would recommend the Hotel Castillo, the Sportsmans Lodge, or the Amistad Hotel.

Cristina. 26, big ol natural D cups and a raspy voice / big laugh is wonderful. Fun attitude, spectacular BBBJ skills, great kisser and just loads of fun to smash while watching those big floppy titties bounce.

Nicol, a friend of hers, is a petite little thing with a cute smile and an ass that won't quit. She is so short and it's so big that the surface heat from it alone is something to behold. She won't let you stick it in there (many have tried many ways) but you can have a great time with it anyway. She is sweet, has a nice attitude, great for 2on1s with Cristina.

Her sister also works there, Monica (these are all their working names). She has kind of a cute little body and if you buy her a couple drinks and treat her OK she is up for anything. PM for more details if you want, these girls are not hard to find though.

Lastly, if you've been to the Peruvian place over by the Hotel Castillo and seen a cute mixed Tica / English bartender (Chiqui or Veronica) , chat her up and let her know you're available. She worked at Sportsman and Key Largo for a while, really fun girl. Great attitude and fun in the sack.

Secondly what's going rate for 2 hour incall in my hotel room?

Is it possible to monger without a word of Spanish and without going to bars?

Will appreciate any reply. Thanks.

speedstick.i would say right now the hot places are le grillion and las margaritas at night. they are on the blush map under parque central.

in the area of the inca real check the map for barrio amon. the best places there are krysis, muses and of course hotel little havana, but the later is higher priced $50 and i have not seen as much turn over with the girls. muses used to be bad, but its good now.

i think the most consistently good daytime place is relax, and its on the blush / sexguide map for soledad.

Thanks in advance.Picked the following up from their web site.


The Condominium Suite Hotel “Cristina” is designed to accommodate families, especially those during relocation, business executives, as well as all other individuals or groups that are visiting Costa Rica.Sounds like a nice place to bring along your mother on your next to Costa Rica. Sounds like a bad place for a bunch of guys with a covoy of hookers from the Del Rey.

My guess is that you might get away with it once, but afterwards will be asked to find another hotel. If the security is at least adequate, then no chance, especially late at night.

Also, that area over by Sabana Park is not known for hotels that like sex tourists.

I haven't read back through the years of posts since I was there, but don't seem to see much mention of it. Is it gone? Or just gone downhill enough no one is talking about it?

A Tale of Two Mongers.

There are two primary types of mongers. Some, like me for example, enjoy the chase. Nothing is more exciting to me than crouching through a third world alleyway in search of a hidden gem. Finding that rarely tapped hottie for pocket change, knowing I've pushed the bounds of safety and sanity to find what few others have access to.

Others, like my friend Fletch, prefer putting the same amount of time into earning money so they don't have to troll through grungy brothels to find the same number of gems.

Whether it be walking through the crumbled streets of San Jose, or slaving away in the glass towers of Manhattan, our hobby has something for everyone.

Prelude & Planning.

It all started while reading his trip report a while back from a high priced all inclusive. Some members criticized him for paying what he did, while others tipped their hat. I was more curious than anything else. I wondered what justified the pricing involved in these high end resorts charging what they did. I also wondered what mind frame the market for these resorts were coming from. Was it limited knowledge of the mongering world that led them to pay the asking price, or the desire for a hassle-free vacation?

I wrote down on a note pad what my average mongering trip to Havana, Medellin, or San Jose normally costs. Then I compared it to what he had paid. I traded emails with Fletch a few times and one thing led to another.

I told him I thought the trip for his group could be done for quite a bit less than what he was paying. So we agreed to explore the options.

Some are probably thinking about now, 'Is there money to be made in this'? Well, yes and no. If you take out the R&D budget, yes. But while R&D is in my opinion the most fun part of the job, trust me, it's still a job.

First, you need a decent resort that holds the group, then you have to break the news to them that half of your group will be prostitutes. Then you need to explain that there will be some nudity and debauchery taking place in some of the common areas.

Panning for nuggets through the river of rocks takes time and effort. You need to filter out the trouble-makers, mercenaries, bad performers, flakes, and up-sellers. Then you have to convince 15 traditionally unreliable people to show up on time for a bus trip to the resort.

All of this while emphasizing that the transactions would be handled directly, so as to avoid "facilitating" prostitution laws.

There were so many moving pieces, it turned what I thought would be an effortless endeavor into an actual event planner's job.

In the end, it somehow worked out.

The Roster.

Fielding a roster of this size takes work. As I explained, the R&D had to be successful to make the trip worth the ticket price.

This is the most fun part of the job. I spent up any money I made long before completing the selection process. But I can live with that.

Karen: 158089

Flor: 158090

Ruth: 158091

Gabriella: 158092

Dayanna: 158093

Julie: 158094

Vanessa: 158095

Tatianna: 158096

The Council.

This is a group that has some outstanding personalities. Most of the council has been on at least one of these trips before. In my opinion, this group would have had a good time anywhere they went.

It starts with Fletch, the catalyst. Then to the core of Thunder Dan, Mr. Sinister, Matty the Horse, One Day Al, the Young American, and onto Frankencock, DNA, Hammer Time, Gran Torino, Doobs, and a few others.

Some of the group have limited vacation time, so it was important to us they have the most fun they could have in the time we had. Some of the antics from this trip still have me laughing.

There is an MVP award, so the stunts a few of the guys pulled to make themselves stand out were hilarious. DNA with his masks and outfits have burned their way into my memory.

Frankencock is a character out of a cartoon. A 6'5 prostate cancer survivor who's non-functioning hydraulics force him to use an injection to induce erections. The side effects, or in this case, primary effect, is that he's stuck with a 4 hour erection. Traumatizing his hostesses into hiding.

I'll get into some of this as the story unfolds.

Away Team.

Among the Council, there was an away team, or executive members. These are Fletch, Thunder Dan, Mr. Sinister, Matty the Horse, and Frankencock.

All but Frankencock, I had met in New York while I was there on business and had the pleasure of a few dinners, cigars, and excellent company.

The away team had arrived several days early. Originally, it was a pre-resort Cuba trip, but airlines schedule changes forced a change of plans.

I had a great time showing the away team around San Jose before the bulk of the council arrived. Also introducing some of our roster to them for the interview process.

First Day. Madness and Stress.

When guys have paid deposits, rented an entire resort, and bought airline tickets. The day everyone needs to show up is extra stressful to the guy charged with making everything happen. I figured the only way to get 15 girls to show up on a Saturday afternoon, was to invite 30. Which I did. I figured if a couple extra showed up, I'd give them $50 and apologize. But it never came to that. Most of the quality showed up with luggage ready and I happily escorted them to the vans for their trip to the beach. A sense of relief came over me when they left.

First Night: Careful what you ask for.

Once we arrived at the resort, more relief came when I saw the guys faces. It seemed they were satisfied with the personnel I had acquired for the trip.

We settled in and prepared for a reception where the guys would pick their girlfriends for the day.

One council member, Doobs, felt he had a special connection with one of the hostesses that warranted overriding the picking order. The decision to tolerate this exception was made. Thankfully, none of the other council members felt this "special connection" and chaos was averted.

First Night: Moving to Defcon 4.

As the first evening got underway, there was a sense that things were going to unfold the way we had planned, or even better. Thunder Dan mentioned this was the best group to date.

I took this as a sign that my work here was done, or at least for the night. So I went to bed to get some badly needed rest.

I was awakened a couple hours later to the news several of the roster members had called it a night as well, without saying good night or asking if their "boyfriends" wanted them to.

I got up and listened to the council member's grievance. One of the hostesses claimed migraine, I'll never know if it was real or not. Another claimed boredom. She mentioned that she had already entertained him earlier, and under no circumstances was she getting out of bed just because he wanted her to. Folks, this is what's known as the other "girlfriend experience".

I informed her she needed to get out of bed, not because he wanted her to, but because I wanted her to. And while she was getting out of bed, she could gather her things for the bus ride back to San Jose. She pouted and agreed that maybe her man did deserve just a little more affection tonight.

Once in the rancho, the guys had arranged a swap of their girls. Hammer was over her, but Mr. Sinister wanted to "punish" her. So a quick discussion with the girls, and the deal was made.

Back to bed.

Second Day: Execution and Reconciliation.

In the morning, Fletch knocked on my door and informed me that not only had Dayana made a stink the night before, but Doob's "special connection" had been replaced by his wanting her dead.

Apparently, she had asked for more money than the agreement and refused to live up to the special connection he believed they had. According to her, the "special connection" involved several pops without a condom.

The whole thing was turning into a he said / she said mess. It was obvious both of them could not stay in the resort at the same time. So we had to ask ourselves "Who in this dispute is paying to be here, and who is being paid to be here"?

So a managerial decision was made by Fletch and I to vote Lianora off the island and have a conversation with the remaining roster to avoid any further confusion.

The expulsion went somewhat smoothly. I gave our lovely mercenary a ride into Jaco to the bus station.

As we called the ladies in for reviews, we explained what the girlfriend experience was according to the council.

This seemed to work for the time being. There was a visible change in the energy the rest of the night. Many of the ladies dressed up for dinner.

Off to bed.

About an hour into my slumber, Thunder Dan and Mr. Sinister wanted to check out the beetle bar in Jaco. So knock on my door they did.

Once I was awake, I drove them into Jaco and showed them around the very slow Beetle Bar, then the slowly picking up Monkey Bar.

Then back to bed.

Third Day: FrankenCock.

I woke up the third day and went to have breakfast.

Apparently while I was asleep, Frankencock had injected himself and was ready for his four hours of fury. But after a bruising first round, his hostess slipped out wanting to "brush her teeth". This set off a round of hide and seek. With Frankencock walking Cock-First around the resort interrogating passers-by as to the whereabouts of his intended victim.

Unable to find his prey during the remaining 3 hours of his erection, he informed Fletch in the morning of his intention to leave early.

This would complicate the numbers / ratio a little, further complicating things, was another council member's decision to bring in a girl he had met in San Jose before the trip.

As Frankencock's taxi arrived, the Frankencock impersonations began.

Fourth Day. Pura Vida.

The literal translation for Pura Vida is Pure Living. But the actual meaning in Costa Rica is "We don't give a shit".

Despite very specific instructions, I had to remind several of our hostesses of the duties they had agreed to. I had to threaten to expel several of them to prompt action. Costa Ricans are lazy as a culture. Many will spend 20 minutes of work to avoid 15 minutes of productive work.

This being said, day 4 went relatively smooth. The weather was very pleasant, and there were no major issues to resolve.

Several of the guys wanted to see the Beetle Bar and Monkey Bar in Jaco at night, so we arranged to get everyone over, and managed to have a decent time.

Last Night: Breaking Out the Pimp Hand.

After returning from Jaco on our last night, the Young American decided to bring a Beetle Bar / Monkey Bar girl home to spice things up.

I knew Pamela from San Jose. She was once a nice girl who would gamble away her money at the Del Rey Casino between clients and go home broke. Now she was doing coke on a regular basis.

In the mongering sport, many guys will eat poison and fight off the anecdote. So I rarely intervene as long as things don't get out of hand.

As Pamela was leaving the Young American's room, she was in a hurry. I told her to have a seat and relax with us while she waited for a taxi. She declined and said she needed to go. I got out of the jaccuzi and told her she wasn't going anywhere until he came out and said everything was ok. Blocking her exit in the process.

Eventually, the Young American came out 3-sheets to the wind and said things were ok.

Who knows what really happened.

Overview and Conclusions:

The all inclusive mongering model is a decent idea for guys with the money, who don't want the hit and miss adventure. My inexperience at this model allowed a little of this in anyway.

There are variations of it in many locations. Places like Oxygen and Viking offer a turnkey solution at a premium. While the Medellin Mansion / Casa Blanca offers a hybrid model.

Guys like me will always be drawn to the wild frontiers of mongering. But I have an honest respect for guys who want to enjoy a nice vacation without the full-contact experience of dealing with hardened putas and scam artists that exist, or learning an entire language for a week long vacation.

I'm grateful for the chance to learn about this other aspect to mongering. The guys were a blast, and the resort was amazing.

I realize there will be some who don't care for this model. It's not something I myself would be a client in, as I like the adventure. But I've learned to see the mongering world through other eyes.

I know you could likely organize an event like that at the Cocpacabana in Jaco or perhaps White House in Escazu.

Then he sold the hotel. I'm absolutely certain we would have lost our deposit in the process. I looked at the Copacabana, but it was too big for our group. Having an all inclusive group of mongers mixing with average guests would have been a recipe for disaster and discord.

GREAT REPORT! I did almost the same thing on a smaller scale last Nov. Only 4 guys. We used Jaco VIP and ended up getting upgraded to a totally private mansion on the beach with 6 bedrooms, private pool, cabana, WiFi, maid service, etc for only $400 a night, which works out to only $100 a person per night. We use to get the hottest Beetle Bar girls numbers at night (usually the Colombians) and call them over for huge 5-6 hour sessions during the day. Always agreed on the $100 per girl plus taxi. Best value of my life.

Has anybody stayed at the Apartotel Suites Cristina? Is is chica friendly? I am going with a couple of friends and this looks like a good place.

Thanks in advance.I stayed there once. I rented 2 suites one for me and my novia and another for her mom and kids. Its close to the airport near Park Sabana. It was nice, a nice little pool and free breakfast. HOWEVER. They have some sort of agreement with the Hospital nearby that does stem cell transplants and there are many paraplegics in wheel chairs who stay there with family's. It was depressing watching all this suffering. If you like this area a better pick would be the Real right around the corner from the Christina and there is a casino attached.

Is this hotel Chica Friendly?

The Morazon hotel is very Chica friendly. Not sure if they have a 'Chica fee' or not. But you can usually find a P4P type gal in the bar upstairs on the 2nd floor or some down on the casino floor playing the slots.

If you are 'looking' just trol around some, and you will probably find what you are looking for.

And it is only about a half block away (on the same street) as the epicenter of P4P action. The Hotel Del Ray and the Key Largo night club.

It is not a bad place to headquarter. Especially for 1st timers or newbys.

The old hands usually know of a few better hotel choices though. But all in all it an OK place to stay. Rooms run about $ 45-50. 00 a night. Unless you can get an online special price........by reservation - in advance of your actual stay.

It's been a while since I've been to SJO. A couple of newbies want to experience the life, but are afraid to venture any further south than CR so I've agreed to return after a five year absence. Used to stay at the Presidente and usually stayed in the Master Suite. I kinda remember hearing somewhere that the hotel is no longer chica friendly, is this true? Remembering my last trip, they had a dress code for chicas that was kinda a pain in the ass, but still manageable.

If they are no longer on the monger list, what other hotels or accommodations would you recommend that have the same type of set up as the Master Suite and still located near ground Zero? Sportsmans? Amistad? Others? Pluses and minuses of a recommendation would be greatly appreciated.

Also, in monger life, five years is a long time-a lifetime actually! Knowing that there will be changes, are there any that we should be aware of? Glad to hear Idem is still around, and HLH is still there as well, but what about el Pueblo, Jazz Club, etc.. Has the Park Hotel (Liquor in the front poker in the rear) been replicated or will it remain a memory?

Thanks to all in advance for your help and responses.

Thanks to all in advance for your help and responses.I also was a huge Presidente fan- stayed there for several years. The answer is No, not chica friendly- numerous reports of issues. The Sportsman's has a very nice 2 person suite with 2 jaccuzzis, La Amistad also has a good sized penthouse with a seperate room that can be rented that opens to it. I think there are a couple of suites there. Both are great places to say, with the Amistad being a more "normal" hotel, and Sportsman's being more of a boys club / brothel (well, that sounds harsh, it is great as well).

Idem now is 65 bucks a session- far too much for an MP if you ask me. Park Hotel is long gone.

Hey Gents;

I'm coming to the CR on Saturday and had previously stayed at presidente because it was a nicer and chica friendly. I booked it again to be told by the front desk they now have a list with 6000 names on it and if the girls name is on it she can't come in? WTF?

It's too late to change the reservation now so can someone tell me if I can get a room at the sportsman, or del Rey just for an hour or two? Or is there away to to get the chicas upstairs at the presidente?

Any intel would be appreciated thanks Gents! Pura Vida!

Anyone willing to recommend a good place to find black chicas in San Jose?I am intimately familiar with San Jose, and I would have to say what you are looking for does not exist in San Jose. While there may occasionally be a black girl among the line up anywhere there is no place they congregate as a group. You could go to Limon, and see plenty of black women, but its not famous for pay to play.

I would suggest the Dominican Republic as a choice of destination if you are like dark skinned women.

Couldn't tell you the ST prices though since I was staying there for a week. But, I saw a couple of people walk from the Del Rey and rented the room for an hour.

For anybody else looking for a decent hotel with good location, good prices and very friendly staff. I highly recommend Hotel Morazan. I just came back from a week in there. I couldn't have picked a better place to stay for our hobby. No chica fees. Don't need a taxi from Del Rey. They keep the Chica's I'd at the reception and confirm with you before she leaves. Free breakfast, Very reliable Wi-Fi internet all over the hotel. I have never met friendlier staff. Every single person renting the rooms there is Gringo. I met a few people there as well. One time, I was hanging out at the reception and I noticed a stack of atleast 20 IDs. At night, There are girls coming and going all the time. Also, within 5 min. Walk to IDEM, HLH and NF.

IDEM is the best MP. Great girls, amazing service. I had memorable sex here numerous times last week. Disappointed with NF and HLH was so-so.

I had an amazing time in San Jose. I am Brazil fan but this trip was up there with Rio and Buenos aires. Much better than DR.

PRELIM.

Had another good trip. This one wasn't the best I've had but I had a good time, hooked up with some nice chicas, and hung with some good people. Arrived Thursday night September 1 via the Continental / United direct flight out of Newark, NJ. Used my miles for a complimentary flight so no need for connecting flights to find a more reasonable fare. Arrived 8:30pm CR time and went through immigration pretty quick except for the female agent who gave me a dirty look when I advised I would be staying in barrio amon in response to her question after she saw how many CR stamps I have in my Passport. Next time will say I'm staying at Best Western Escazu or somewhere similar!

THURSDAY NIGHT.

Negotiated a taxi to the Sportsmans for $20. 00 plus a $5. 00 tip with a uniformed driver upon exiting the airport. Settled in and was sitting at the Sportsman's bar by 10:00pm. First girl I encountered was Rebecca. She has red hair tan skin and a nice body, at least what I could tell with her clothes on. I make eye contact with her and her first words are, 'let's go fuck. ' Beautiful girl but I've never had good experiences with working girls who are so forward, plus I've read mixed reviews about her. Saw hera lot the remainder of the trip, but she was always about the business. Daniella, friend / sister of HLH nica Christina came up to me with an older Colombian girl to sell me on a threesome, but I also wasn't buying. Daniella has a nice face and caboose but has put on a lot of weight. Her Colombian friend showed tits and invited me to touch which was nice. Bought them both a drink in the interest of keeping good relations but then moved one. Had a few more Bavaria lights at closing time headed off to the Del Rey with a guy from Houston I met at the SL bar.

Selection wasn't bad and I would come to find out unfortunately was the best it would be the remainder of the trip. Ran into Yani at the bar which is right beyond the main entrance. Actually, my Texan acquaintance pointed her out. He had already had three girls for the day and was only there for the drinking. Yani (not her real name, surprise, surprise) said she is 19. Nice personality and a natural beauty in my eyes. Agreed on $80US and headed back to the SL at about 2am with my Texan wingman, who was also staying at the SL. My wing was supposed to wake up early Fri. Morning to head to Jaco for one day and night. Don't know how he made it with little sleep and a hangover. Yani was to be my first and only for Thursday so I was worried I would fire off that first leche too quick. Usually I like to arrive earlier and hit a low end MP for the first one. In any event maybe it was the liquor, but I was able to hold out for about a half hour for some decent covered head and a solid pounding in missionary, doggy, cowgirl, reverse CG and orgasms for both of us. Took two pictures and gave her $80 US as agreed. Yani didn't bother me for any Taxi fare, which was nice. (When asked I usually give 2 mil colones) since I figure they are heading back to the DL or KL.

FRIDAY.

Woke up around Noon, had lunch at the SL, and made an MP run. Walked to Relax but nothing to my liking. Asked the girls about Camilla. 19 yr. Old Nica in a school girl outfit I had twice during my April trip, but they said she doesn't work there anymore. Walked back towards Avenue 7 and passed some muy linda chicas on the way, including a nice thick one I would see coming to the Sportsmans with a guy (presumably from the Del Rey) the next day. As I walked down Avenue 7 Muses is always first on my stop. However, this time a newscrew is outside with cameras going and the policia grandstanding in front of them. Such hipocracy. Didn't want to risk a raid at any of the other Ave. 7 pensions so I went back to the SL. Didn't like the selection and it started to rain pretty steady (as it did for the remainder of the day) as I walked to Ave. 7 so I took a taxi to the Del Rey.

Daytime selection was not as good as prior trips. A guy from Florida decked in Yankee gear from head to toe saw my Yankee cap and asked if I was a real Yankee fan. Told him probably not as much a fanatic as you. Spoke to him for a bit but also wanted to find a girl. Found Cynthia sitting at a table near the Blue Marlin bar. Noticed her pretty face, and the pretty things she had up top for a skinny girl. Said she is Nica but her complexion seemed more Tica to me. She did have a Nicaraguan passport as I would notice back at the SL. Spoke to her for about a half hour and bought a Baileys on the rocks for her. Cynthia says she goes to cooking school. She hopes to come to the US (California) to work as a hotel chef. No kids for her yet, she says. Offered $50 US and she countered with $70. 00. I hesitated, a moment, looked around, and seeing no other appetizing options, agreed. Back in the room her big natural tatas were fun and her funhole was very tight (had a hard time fitting two fingers in). Had a good hour and a half session with her with orgasms for both of us. It was about 5:30pm at this point and a wingman from Minnesota I met on a prior trip was getting in at 8:30pm so I took a nap to rest up for the evening.

Woke up and headed out to the bar to meet my wing, T as he is referred to in Jacoret's report. He eventually appeared with Danny, Nicaraguan handy man who works for the Hotel Castillo. The SL was crowded and I had to wait to pay my check so we make plans to leave later in the evening. Give one last look over of the SL talent after paying my check and was off to the Del Rey and Key Largo. Run into T and Danny there who were returning from Taberna VIPs near Avenida 7. T says there were a few nice girls but Danny was observing the Ticos and thinking a fight was going to break out so they left. We hung for the remainder of the night until I hooked up with Veronica around 2:30am. Prior to that I danced bachatta with Andrea, a 19 year old Nica who I would hook up with the next night. Andrea seemed shy when I first met her and when I tried to negotiate off $100 she didn't respond so I walked that night. Anyway that story is for the next day. Back to Veronica. If you love thick girls Veronica has it for days and looks a bit like Snookie from Jersey Shore to me, not that I watch that show much. She speaks almost perfect English as well. Back at the room she was not as passionate as the other girls but I was doing my thing with those curves. Finished in a hard pounding doggy while squeezing those cheeks together for leverage. Gave her $80. 00 as negotiated and she gave me her phone number and e-mail. Didn't give her taxi money since I knew she was going back to the Del Rey. Fri. Night in the books.

SATURDAY.

Slept till 11am. T called my room from the Sportsman's front desk to get me up. Quick shower and off for an MP run and lunch at a Soda. Checked out Muses, Jet Set, Flamingo, and Krysis. Muses had a cute flaca and Jet Set a few nice thick girls but we decided to check out Relax and Mansion. Fabiola and Jenny were in but been there done that. Checked out mansion, about 4 or 5 girls but only one looked like she had been through the ringer a few less times than the other women. There is also a pension next to Mansion which had 2 girls who didn't do it for me. We circle back to Relax where T picks Jenny. Guess she was in the mood to work this day as he got sex in addition to the BBBJ, which she always gives, and two pops. Most everyone knows Jenny but lately she had been getting lazy in my opinion by trying to dust guys off without intercourse. Danny went with Sharon whose body looks better coming off a pregnancy. I went around the corner a small food stand up the street from the Mansion and snacked on two pastel con carne and a coke while I waited. Returned to Relax and half hour later and T was still not done. Turns out he paid for a half hour but got 40 minutes. T apologizes for making us wait, but with me as a wing never have to apologize for having a good time.

The three of us walk back towards Ave. 7 for lunch and to see if there were any cute chicas in the rooms which we missed at Jet Set and Muses. I have plans for Nicole, bubble butt tica with hazel eyes formerly of Zona Blue to come to the Sportsmans at 5pm. I usually don't make dates because I don't like to be tied down and the girls aren't reliable but I had such a good time with Nicole back in November of 2009 and I havn't seen her around on subsequent trips. She called me 8:30 the morning of in the room so I figured she was serious about showing up. After lunch I still have two hours before Nicole arrives and I want to give her my all so we head back to Jet Set. Two nice thick chicas are sitting around so I select one for a half hour. As we pass a dark skin chica who looked like she could play D-line in the NFL was sitting there looking bored. I know the Ticos supposedly like them big but damn. Good covered head, as good as covered head can be, and pounding in missionary and doggy. Back to the hotel to get ready for Nicole. The SL CRT / Labor Day is also tonight. I didn't know it yet, but Saturday would end up being my best day and night.

Stand outside the SL waiting for Nicole. See the nice thick chica with the pretty face I saw when I was walking to Relax on Fri. She enters with a guy (probably coming from the Del Rey). Nicole's taxi pulls up only about 10 minutes late. She pays for her taxi and gives me a big hug and kiss on the cheek on the way in. I offer food and drink at the bar, but she sees how many people are gathering for the party and says it's up to me but she rather order room service because she doesn't want word getting back to anyone at her school about being at the SL. I'm cool with that, just want to be with her anyway so we order the nachos con carne plate, which is plenty big for two, a Johnny Walker Red for her, and a beer for me. I mentioned how I've been coming to CR a lot lately but never see her. She says she's sticking with school where she study's business management and working at a call center. She told me she was sitting at the SL bar one day and had an epiphany that she didn't want to be a middle age working girl. Nicole is a real sweet girl. She never mentioned money and was in my room for about 3 hours eating, drinking, and sexing. We finish eating, drinking, and small talk then it's down to business. She comes out of the bathroom in a towel briefly but that fantastic bubble butt is popping out and exposed.

I was ready to dive in before I laid eyes on that ass but after seeing it I was raring to go. She wants to give me a massage but neither of us have oil. She always gives a massage so told me to bring massage oil next time. She goes ahead with the massage anyway, which is very relaxing. She turns me over and proceeds with a BBBJ. Her tongue goes up and down my shaft sideways, flicks her tongue on the tip tip, and then goes up and down quickly then stops to deep throat. I lay her down for DATY where she has her first orgasm. Strap up with the ultra thin condom and take her in missionary. Pin her legs back and she has a second O. She gets on top and then we finish with me pounding her in doggy. The bed moved almost halfway across the room. We collapse together and rest for about 15 minutes. She showers up and I leave $100. 00 near her purse next to the TV. While I'm showering she finds the money and expresses her happiness with same. She asks me to e-mail or call her anytime I am in CR.

Head out to the SL bar for the CRT anniversary / Labor Day party and the place is packed. Run into Jacoret whom I had planned to meet. He was at a table with a very cute Tica / Jamaican chica who was fun to hang out with. I had the spaghetti and meat sauce dinner, which was pretty good, and a few beers while hanging out with Jacoret and his novia. Eventually T dropped by from the Castillo and the Samba dancers arrived. The Samba show was very nice, but the drums were blaring. I am posting some pictures of the dancers. T, Jac and his girl, and I taxi over to El Pueblo.

The first bar we hit has a cover of 1, 500 Colones if memory serves me, but you get a ticket for a beer or mixed drink. The place was packed shoulder to shoulder. A few ticos looked at us but nothing to worry about. Saw two chicas that were at the SL earlier in the night. Jacoret's girl introduces us to some Nicaraguan muchachas (nonpros) at a table near the stage. They are fun to dance with until Jac's girl tells them we are American, after which they started asking for drinks. I danced merengue with one of the Nicas and Jac's girl who was a lot of fun and was cool with dancing with us (no grinding of course, have to be respect to Jac). T bought them a round, and after a bit more dancing I suggested that we move on. Went to another bar in the Puebla complex which was less crowded and hung there for a bit, after which we got some pizza, also in the Puebla complex.

Taxied to the DR and KL and went on the hunt. Jac and his girl decided to retire since he was leaving the next morning and she was wasted. I looked around the Key Largo and went back and forth between the KL and DR with T for what felt like forever looking for the one. At about 3am I was walking past the slots and saw Andrea. 19 yr. Old Nica, from the night before. There were more chewbaccas around than princess Leias so I figured she would have the upper hand in negotiations. At the same time Andrea looked scrumptious so I wasn't about to [CodeWord140] (http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord140) her off by offering less than she's worth. Got right down to business and offered $80 US for two hours, first and final offer, which she accepted right away. She was very shy and didn't say much, so on the way back to the SL I was wondering about how this was going to work out. She was holding my hand in the taxi and cuddling so at least that was a good sign.

Back at the SL she was still quiet but relaxed. I turn on the music video channel and there is some good reggaeton playing. I start to kiss her neck and give her the patented tongue whip which I would later apply to her puss and take off her top. She is breathing heavy. Man those titties were something straight from NASA the way they defied gravity. Her caramel nips were standing at attention and I applied my tongue to those as well with a circular motion followed by my patented nibble, suck and lick which she loved. I ripped off my jeans, laid down, and she positioned her self sideways while she went down on my jewels and I fingered her tight (claims no kids) soaking wet funhole. I strapped up with the ultra thin and she proceeded with head with pretty good skills for a 19 yr. Old. After about 10 minutes of head, I laid her down for DATY. She had her first O after about 15 minutes (took longer than usual) after which I flipped her over for 69. Man that puss was as good as an ice cream Sunday, for me. Flipped her back over for missionary after which I did her every which way with the bed moving half way across the room once again. I was taking a while to nut since I had two girls not too far apart already today. Turned her over to doggy that tight ass and was really pounding her while rimming her two hole with my index finger. Turned her back over for mish since I ran out of positions to think of and still couldn't cum. I pulled out, flung off the condom and started to jerk it. She moved in closer and I even closer until I got near her face. After a few minutes it happened finally and she let me finish all over her gorgeous face, with a small amount ending up in her hair. Gave her $80. 00 when she was ready to go, took a few pictures, and she kissed me on the cheek and left at about 5:30am. Man, with Nicole, Andrea, and the Jet Set girl in between I have to say it was a great day, one of the most memorable out of all of my trips.

SUNDAY.

Did an MP run with T and Danny. Check out Jet Set and Muses but not much of a selection. Head to Relax and I pick Andrea, flaca Nica with curly black hair and a pretty face formerly of Hotel Marruecos. Take her for a half hour and have a decent session. She is very tight and gives great head. She offered BBBJ for 5, 000 Cs tip but I declined.

Later in the evening we hit the tico strip clubs. Not much appetizing in Taberna Vips so we taxi to Molino Rojo and Arcadas. Driver tries to convince us to go to Hollywood, Tango India, Atlantis and every other rip off joint you can think of but I know better. A couple of diamonds in the rough at Rojo. 1,500. 00 Cs for entrance, which is more than 2 times cheaper than Alcasar and Pantara Rosa, and a drink is included. Its earlier in the evening around 10 and after finishing my beer go up to a tall older Tica with a tight body hoping to get her while she's still fresh, which is a relative term at these places. Pay the 12, 000Cs and she finds the cleanest room, again relative on the cleanliness, with a bed. She's a cool girl. No romance at these places. I drop my pants for head and she gets on her knees, puts on the condom and obliges. The sheet on the bed looks wet so I get her to assume doggy on the edge of the bed and I pound her standing up. Having trouble finishing again so I pound her for about 20 minutes in doggy until I come while listening to the sounds of snorting in the adjoining room. Did I mention these lower end tico joints are gangsta! I finish up and come out to T and Danny. T is trying to decide between getting sloppy 2nds or who knows how many with the chica I just had and a light skin Nica that approached him after scoping us out for bit. He goes with the Nica and says he had a good time when he returns. Nothing for Danny tonight.

We taxi back to the Del Rey. It's about 12:30 but not much of a selection and I'm not sure I have another session in me so we retire for the evening after a few beers.

MONDAY.

Woke up and did another MP run with T and Danny. Took a thick light skin girl at Relax whose name I forget. She gave great covered head and crazy thing is she came within the first two minutes of sex. Who knows maybe some other guy started her up and I finished the job but I'll take the credit! Wasn't sure a half hour would be enough but I focus and finished the job in doggy, pulling out and spraying that fat ass.

We walk over to pension Bella Mansion which is really a night spot and had no talent in the day (but is open for some reason) as well as Pension Lilliam and the two adjoining brothels. Lilliam and the other two remind me of the Buenos Aires 85 and Uriguianna 21 in the Centro area of Rio in that they are in structures that look like apartment buildings from the outside and are packed with girls and guys. All three had a few diamonds in the rough and for 6, 000 Cs for a half hour you can't go wrong. Lilliam had a really cute blond and I was kicking myself for having sessioned a half hour earlier. Oh well, there's always next time or hopefully another diamond in the rough.

T wants to go back to Castillo for a nap (he's here for 9 days but today's my last day) and Danny has to work. Since it's my last day I want to go out with a bang so I head back to the SL on the hunt. Nothing too appetizing and its starting to pour so I taxi to the Del Rey where I find Maggial. Not the most attractive but she agrees to $60. 00 so for that price I'll give her a try despite her admitting to three kids during my screening. Apparently she was shacked up with the same Tico for a few years and he fathered the children before deciding to take off. Maggial had a great attitude and her body was actually nice despite 3 kids. Her vag wasn't all that tight but she took a solid pounding and let me finish on her face.

Have Dinner at the SL and scope the talent. Spoke to a guy who attended the HLH Labor Day / CRT party on Sun. And he showed me video on his cell phone of some sibian action which looked good. Danny is in for the night but T and I make another strip club run, Alcasar, Taberna VIPS, Rojo, and Arcadas, but nothing appetizing tonight. Back to Key Largo where I see this flaca tica I've been craving since list trip who I didn't get to pull the trigger on. She's tied up with a gringo who genuinely seems to be into her. She's hanging with Maggial who I had earlier in the evening and another blond tica who is even more flaca. The blond is cute but nothing to go gaga over. The blond parts her mini skirt to flash her puss to me while sitting on a stool and it looks pretty appetizing. I have an 8am flight so I offer $60. 00 US for an hour but she counters with $100. 00. I walked away ready to leave all together. T is about to go with Maggial since I told him she'the go for $60. 00 but Maggial stops to talk to the Blond. The flaca blond comes back and says ok for $70. 00. I'm pissed at this point but's it's Monday and not much around so I figure I'll give her a good banging for the trouble. Back at the SL she is cool, way too skinny on the body for me but she had a fat juicy puss. After covered head went right to doggy and pounded her for about 25 minutes stopping to apply lube intermittingly. Gave her $70US, took a shower, packed, and got 2 hours of sleep before my wake up call and the taxi pulled up.

CLOSING REMARKS.

Not my best trip by far, but I always have a great time and manage to find some great girls. A combination of low season, raids, and lack of sex tourists were all attributable to the bad turnout of chicas. I didn't get to make it to the HLH party but heard it was good. I figured for the $40. 00 general cover and $10. 00 cover to enter the sibian room, I could get a Sportsman's or Del Rey girl and in fact did. Not sure about my next trip, wanted to do Halloween but it's too soon. Will probably do something in the Spring, but maybe Dominican Republic (although Sosua is experiencing crackdowns) or Colombia. Happy hunting, Bunda.

Thanks for the Outstanding trip report. It is detailed and loaded with pertinent info.

I was deciding between the DR and CR. I have been to the DR once, so now I have decided to check out CR. I'm making my first trip there this month. Attached is a some delicious booty from the past.

Thanks, Pipe

This is my first trip to San Jose.

Is the Hotel Del Rey chica friendly with no joiner fee?

(I'm assuming it is but I want to be sure)

I have read a ton of posts on here about the hotels and many guys seem to go to the Sportsmen's Lodge, Hotel Morazan, and La Amistad.

I'm wondering why I haven't read any posts about people staying at the Del Rey?

Is it because it is an obvious choice or is the hotel not a good place to stay?

I'm thinking if I stays there I would be right in the action.

Any intel will be appreciated. Pipe

Any intel will be appreciated. PipeThe Del Rey charges $10 per chica visit, and has done so for more than a decade. Also, until recently the rooms were very much in need of a remodeling and Internet access was poor. I have lived on the other side of the Rey from Morazan park for four years and can tell you there is not much activity upstairs.

Had the Del Rey got their act together and eliminated the fee back in 97, then they would have eliminated the market for other downtown hotels popular with sex tourists. Basically, their very short sighted approach to customer service hurt them badly in the business of hotel rooms.

Personally, I do not think it is a bad option, but you can not book securely online and have to negotiate to get a better rate, because it is not worth $100 a night. I understand that now they are offering the discount more frequently.

The hotel Del Rey is 'ground zero' for the (P4P). "pay for play' venue in San

Jose CR.

Everyone goes there to find girls. If not to find them, at least to oggle all of them. It is like Disneyland for grown up boys. Aka Mongers. Guys who have come to CR to "get laid".

Who want to partake in sex with the young ladies. Who hang out at the Del Rey.

They have a couple of nice bars, a small casino. And usually about 30-40 +.

Sometimes as many as 80-90 gals. All at one time . Hanging out in order to secure a date with a fellow.

There are those guys who stay upstairs at the Del Rey Hotel. I am not one of them. As I would much prefer to stay at: the Hotel Castillo, the Sportsmans Lodge, the La Amistad, or even the Morazon Hotel. In order for my preference.

The Hotel Del Rey is 'way chica friendly' but charges you $ 10. 00 each and every time you take a gal upstairs to your room. That can add up. Plus I think their rooms are overpriced.

You can go to the Hotel Del Rey. For free . And see all the gals-pick one up and then take her to your other hotel.

You should find yourself spending about 2-3 hours a day (on average) in the confines of the HDRey. So why stay there when there are much better hotel options available.

There are guys who go to San Jose. Who stay at the HDRey. Eat all their overpriced meals there, drink all their drinks there, lay with all their gals there. Check in. Check out. And then straight back to the airport for their return flight. Home. They do not go anywhere else except the Hotel Del Rey. But what a waste. Get out and see some of the country.

Be a little adventuring. Stay somewhere else. Just my 2 centavos worth.

PS I have stayed darn near at all the better monger hotels in San Jose.

But in about 12-15 trips there. 5-6 years and running. I have never stayed at the Del Rey. Except to spend some time there checking out the ladies. And occasionally finding one there to take back to my other hotel.

PipeThe Del Rey is an overpriced dump that is very loud from the Casino that goes all the way to the top floor thru the "atrium", the thin walls so you can hear all the drunks rambling to their rooms and everything else, and the traffic noise. It's old. And, just imagine if they put the blue light in those room to see what was all over the floor, the bed spreads which they wash only occasionally, the door knobs, the light switches and on and on. Plus, zero customer service. I wouldn't stay there even if were $10 a night.

Went to San Jose for the first time in 2 years and made the mistake of staying at the presidente! Do not, I repeat do not stay there unless you have no interest in having visitors. They have turned into a LGBT hotel policy only. Why is that acceptable but normal visitors aren't? They will never get another dollar from me. Additionally, what idiot there decided to close the news cafe on the central avenida! WTF! They are idiots!

Now to the mongering it was awesome as usual! I went to the DR and the girls were of high quality as usual. There were a few Nicas that just blew away the competition the pricing point was high value for service. I really enjoyed myself there.

Wasn't so sure about the SL went on 3 occasions and was disappointed by the quality of the girls there. Clearly not the caliber of the DR but I would definitely recommend going to the SL for the experience and the club sandwich. The owners and management at SL are good guys and will definitely take care of you!

Also the new fantasy is still a bargain and highly recommended for your trip. I also heard some great reviews on the Oasis from a wingman. Overall San Jose is still awesome for me and I can't allow 2 years to pass before I get back down there again. Next time I'll stay at the morazon or sleep inn or even the balmoral.

Be safe

Hello,

Thank you for the brief report.

You left out some vaulable information. What were the ladies asking for at the DR?

Since you really enjoyed yourself, and what did you negotiate?

What about SL. Were the ladies behaving and asking reasonable compensation?

How was NF?

Girls, service, attitude, etc.

Come on man, inquiring minds want to know.

Steve you can't be serious? Bunda Man gives a well detailed report and he usually provides pics, and you want to ***** to the administrator? If you haven't noticed there isn't alot of activity in the CR forum, but you want to slap the one dude who is proactive? Damn. Unless you are willing to provide a better report and show us some of your pictures please sit back and just enjoy it. Thats like the State the objecting to a witness who is helping his case. Let me help you out, a thank you would have been more in order as other members have done. Save your objections to Jackson for when you have a real beef. Good report Bunda man and keep them coming.

Good report Bunda man and keep them coming.Hola,

Perhaps you misunderstood what I as aiming for in my comment about Bunda Mans report. I have no problem with his last report, or any of his reports. For that matter.

I do not personally know him. But we have corresponded via this forum. And he seems a very straight forward type of fellow. One of the good guys. And his reports and photos are usually very excellent.

What I was asking for. Was for Mr Jackson. The administrator to change the style of the reports some. So they did not appear in 'skinny columns'. Which for me are hard to read.

There is a whole page to use. So why not use it instead of making the 'skinny columns' snake all the way down the page.

So I was asking for was a 'style change' of the reports on this forum. And I was not being critical of anyone's reports. OK.

I agree with you. BundaMan's reports are always 1st rate. So I have no 'beef' with him or anyone else. Just a simple request. To change the style of the 'thin columns used' to use more of the page. So we do not have to keep going down the page. To read the rest of the reports.

PS

I did not delete my previous post....guess Mr Jackson did delete it.....perhaps he did not like my comments about the style of the reports......and "I am not trying to make waves" or "rock the boat"....just voicing my opinion on something that I think could be improved.

To read the rest of the reports.I, for one, have no idea what you are talking about. What "skinny columns" are you referring to? I looked at Bunda Man's lengthy report (which I agree is excellent) and it covered the most of entire width of entire width of the page, minus the column on the left that contains the poster's name and number of posts. So please explain what you are referring to.

Hola,

Perhaps you misunderstood what I as aiming for in my comment about Bunda Mans report. I have no problem with his last report, or any of his reports. For that matter.

I do not personally know him. But we have corresponded via this forum. And he seems a very straight forward type of fellow. One of the good guys. And his reports and photos are usually very excellent.

What I was asking for. Was for Mr Jackson. The administrator to change the style of the reports some. So they did not appear in 'skinny columns'. Which for me are hard to read.

There is a whole page to use. So why not use it instead of making the 'skinny columns' snake all the way down the page.

So I was asking for was a 'style change' of the reports on this forum. And I was not being critical of anyone's reports. OK.

I agree with you. BundaMan's reports are always 1st rate. So I have no 'beef' with him or anyone else. Just a simple request. To change the style of the 'thin columns used' to use more of the page. So we do not have to keep going down the page. To read the rest of the reports.

PS.

I did not delete my previous post. Guess Mr Jackson did delete it. Perhaps he did not like my comments about the style of the reports. And "I am not trying to make waves" or "rock the boat". Just voicing my opinion on something that I think could be improved.I am going to go out on a limb and say that Jackson probably deleted it because it had nothing to do with Costa Rica. There is a "proposed site improvement" thread where you can make suggestions pertaining to the site itself. I personally like the "skinny columns".

This is my first trip to San Jose.

Is the Hotel Del Rey chica friendly with no joiner fee?

(I'm assuming it is but I want to be sure)

I have read a ton of posts on here about the hotels and many guys seem to go to the Sportsmen's Lodge, Hotel Morazan, and La Amistad.

I'm wondering why I haven't read any posts about people staying at the Del Rey?

Is it because it is an obvious choice or is the hotel not a good place to stay?

I'm thinking if I stays there I would be right in the action.

Any intel will be appreciated. PipeI've stayed at the Del Rey three times in the past two years. Some rooms are better than others, based on what you're willing to pay. To the extreme are the top floor rooms with a balcony (which isn't private) , those are more in the $150 range. I pay for the $100 room and ask for the outer rooms as high as I can get, like the 5th floor, minimum. Used to stay at the Balmoral,

But they're in the $80s range and have a guest fee of about $15. I stayed at the Morazan once, and thought it was a dump.

Why the HDR? Because I can get my drink on, charge it to my room and not worry about walking around with a lot of cash.

Just get on the elevator, go take a quick nap, go back down and get right back in the game. Some people go there to find the cheapest hotel, cheapest pussy. I'm not one of them, not in the 1% either, LOL.

I took a room at Morazan. The room is ok. Nothing special. I chose this place mainly because I got a good deal with the flight / hotel package. The room ended up costing only $40 a night (including taxes). It was all built into the package.

The HDR looks ok. One-stop shopping. Room upstairs, girls downstairs. I asked about their guest policy. Its $11 per girl to take up. Thats the second reason I chose the other hotel.

The girls were ok last night. Something for everyone. All shapes and sizes. Almost too a girl from he DR. But I was there in June, so I took her number for later. She started at $100 and came down to $70 for 1. 5 hours. I took her number for later in the week. Ended up grabbing a library looking 30 someting chica. It was about 3. 30am when she came over to talk to me. She offered her services for $50. I asked her what she likes to do in the room. Told her what I like. She agreed and off we went. Decent time had by all. Looking for something better today.

There were some hotties the the HDL last night also. They wanted $100, I told them that was too caro (expensive) for only one hour. They were cool for the most part, but I could tell a few of them thought they were worth it. Not in my book.

In the past I found that it was not chica friendly. Anyone have any recent experiences there?

I called and they said the allow chicas but there is a $30 fee. The Del Rey and others are all booked for when I want to go so I have no choice. Has anyone actually stayed there recently?

Has anyone actually stayed there recently?The Balmoral Hotel (which is across the street from the Presidente Hotel. Does not cater to mongers. It is an upscale type of hotel for business travelers, and families. You would perhaps be the only monger type fellow there. And pretty much 'out of place'.

The Presidente no longer wants any monger business also. They enacted a dress code for women recently. A few months ago. Which pretty much rules out a guy taking a hooker up to his room. They too have gone family and business traveler friendly but not chica friendly.

I would recommend a couple of hotels for you where you would be 'right at home'. First the Castillo Hotel, the Sportsmans Lodge, or the La Amastad Hotel.

Check them out. They have web sites. And they are all chica friendly and none of them has any extra 'chica fee'. Which by the way is just another way for the hotels to put the $$$$$ screws to their guests.

%20DRESS%20CODE. PdfOK. The Balmoral must also have a dress code just like the Presidente. And they do that for a specific reason. To keep the hookers out.

So simply find another 'more chica friendly hotel' that does not charge a $ 30. 00 "guest fee". Which by the way......is totally stupid, to begin with. For every "two guests you take up to your room:. You be getting a free 'pop' at a hotel which did not have a 'guest fee'. Think about that...........

There are lots of pretty good hotels in San Jose. You do not need to stay where they will frown upon your activities and charge you extra.

They carry bags big enough to slip out of that short dress and put on a pair of jeans. Problem solved.

Just got back from a week or so in san jose. Weather basically sucked. Rained every single day. Outside the city wasn't as bad. Jaco was pretty empty during the day.

For action the Del Ray was the usual scene. Chicas asking for 100 but quickly negotiating down to 60, 70, or 80 depending on looks. Pretty much a buyers market down there. Lot of desperate girls looking for a quick score.

Sportsman's we found to be more fun in general than the fish bowl scene at the del ray. Good spot to grab a bite, watch some games, and pick up a fun girl.

Spent some decent time at hotel little havana and it's under new ownership. We actually chatted with the old owner who was on his way back to chicago having sold the business. Rooms at the HLH look pretty decent and you get a good discount on chicas if you stay there. They also have a nice cigar area setup run independantly by an expat. Very friendly gentleman and he gets some fine quality products in to sell. Good spot to waste some time and relax. Girls at HLH were decent and fun and the place in general had a very fun sort of feel to it. If that's your thing I'd reccomend. The only downside I saw to HLH was if you want food you need to order out. But that didn't seem to be a problem as when we were there delivery people were constantly stopping in to drop off Chinese or pizza or whatever. They have a full bar and tv's for sports so that would be the only missing item, a kitchen.

I read somewhere there was a little police raid on HLH, that was on the massage / short time side I guess, not the actual hotel part where people stay. Is that correct?

What is the latest on these police interference. Putting their nose where it not belongs! I guess it' a fact of life and it happens occasionally to every place.

So I would say yes, you can have the full breakfast. They are actually running a special. If you show up before 11am and book a "short term room rental" you get a free American breakfast cooked to order. I am not aware of any recent police interference.

Quick report on the Del Rey. Two of us Sat at the bar ordered 3 tequila shots and 3 beers each. We were there about an hour or so. Asked for the bill and it had Jager shots, beers, margaritas. 17 tequila shots 2 red bulls and bottle water. Total $255. We called this to the attention of the Bartender who snapped at us and said I'm not dealing with this and yelled for Security. 5 Security guards came over and we explained that this bill was completely wrong. They did not care and forced us to pay. I used my Credit Card so I will try to dispute. There is no way we could have had that many shots and drinks in a one hour period and we didn't buy drinks for girls or anyone else. This was a complete rip off and scam. Just be carefull and pay for each drink when you order.

It's often a chaotic scene there, especially at the Blue Marlin Bar. The bartenders take a tally when you run a tab but when it's crazy I wouldn't trust their accuracy. Not to mention people who walk out on their bill (unintentionally due to their drunken state or otherwise) and chicas trying to stick you with a month's supply of cigarettes and booze! Some guys who stay there charge everything to their room out of convenience but then have to spend the time combing through the grocery list of charges towards the end of the trip. It's tough to maintain your wits when you are downing shots, have both hands on a girl (s), and the hands of a chica or two in your lap or your pockets!

You will probably win with the credit card dispute. Even though they may have your credit card signature, you can claim that you signed it under duress. At the very least you can get it negotiated down to what you really drank.
