I guess this report is a bit outdated now, but may be helpful nevertheless. Made a short trip to CR during around Christmas (last year. Yes! Wasn't really 'supposed' to be a mongering trip. Was roaming around the city on Christmas day. It was completely dead. Ended up in HDR since that was the only place that seemed to have some activity. There were a few girls roaming around, maybe 1-2 worth doing takeout. But there seemed enough 'seniors' engaging them already. Based on the past reports on the forum, this was quite expected. Sat down peacefully sipping my beer. There were a bunch of guys just sitting at the bar, snickering away at anybody who was coming in or talking to the girls. Definitely not local. Kind of awkward weirdos. Not really what I'd expect for this place.

I'm rather new to the game, so I guess its easy for the girls to smell fresh blood. Got approached by a Nico, gave me her name as Elie. Bought here a beer and chatted up a bit. She was definitely showing age. Sagging tits and lets just say a bit rounded around the edges. But hey, its just a beer and talk right! I guess after about 30 minutes of badgering, I finally gave in. Agreed for 60 for 2 hours, which I figures cannot be bad. I was staying in what I presumed was non girl-friendly hotel. Didn't want to risk taking her back. So just decided to take her across the street. It was 6000 for 2 hours and 1000 each for 2 covers. Advice. Don't do this. If you're partaking. Stay at a good place. My eye literally caught baby roaches during the session. Not really a comforting feeling.

The service was awesome. Truly meant to please. Started with mutual showering followed by everything I literally asked. It was really great. If only the body supported the service, would have been out of this world. Started with DFK, BBBJ, DATY. Quick pop. It smelled nice down there, so didn't mind. Cuddled for some time. Another round. And this is where my mistake begins. Was offered BBFS. Started it. And then realized that its probably not a good idea. Went and washed up. Did the covered service again. 2 hours went by really quickly. Overall, I was quite pleased. Gave 80 instead of the agreed amount. I believe in rewarding good effort.

Next day had gone to a local club on the main street. Met a non-pro I suppose (maybe she was just taking a day off). She was dressed normally, so took her back to my hotel (had moved to a new one) that I had shifted to. Got weird looks from the lobby manager. But no complaints. Girl had a cute face, but large handles to grab on to. Did 70 for 90 minutes. Nothing extraordinary. BBBJ and the rest all covered. I preferred the previous one (minus the body of course). I had had enough. Spent the next day at Arenal and then back home. Short and sweet. I definitely want to go back and explore this.

Not a Nico, rather a Nica! Keep those reports coming. Thanks.

New Fantasy seems to be closed! I was there this morning and though a number of girls waved to me from the Pension, the doors were locked and the guard kept insisting 'No Chicas' and 'Closed'. Not sure what the hell is going on. I suggest mongers avoid this establishment and not waste their time.It is alive and kicking, I hear the owner is the problem. Has some nice chicas.

Back in Costa Rica for work and in and out of San Jose for a few weeks. I didn't have time to shop around and pretty much just wanted to get laid the few times I was free. Went to Relax on a Thursday afternoon. About ten girls working with an ok lineup. Went with Monica, a Tica with a nice curvy figure and great smile. 20 k for the hour plus a tip for BBBJ. Certainly not the best I've had in San Jose but she was pretty good, and I was more than satisfied.

Friday afternoon went to New Fantasy. 6 girls working. Went with a large breasted and very petite Tica named Candy. Perhaps not gorgeous by most standards, but she was cute, had a nice body, great smile, gave off a great vibe, and had the long black hair I like. Good choice as she was very sexy and enthusiastic. 15 k for the room and 15 k for the hour. Oddly, at first she gave me this story about it being her first day working there and that she was a little nervous, and then she proceeds to do this very wet BBBJ and is a sexy dynamo and great performer in the sack. I only mention this because I had another similarly sexy girl at the same place give me the same story a few years ago. Whatever.

On a Monday afternoon, I went back to New Fantasy and repeated with Candy who was even better the second time around. Cute and sexy as all get out. I wanted to take her home. I saw several very attractive girls on my way out.

On my last free night, about 8:30 PM, went to Relax, Idem, Pension 69 and Crisis, finding slim pickings, but I finally found a girl I liked at Crisis. Valeria had a few extra pounds around the tummy and hips but was still reasonably firm. All smiles with a great attitude, nice but small tits, and the long silky and shiny dark hair that I'm a sucker for. Holy shit. She turned out to be amazingly sexy with lots of smiles, eye contact, body rubbing, very good BBBJ, lots of foreplay in the mirror, and enthusiastic sex. MISH, CG, RCG, doggy, standing doggy, etc. Her big round ass in doggy and RCG was spectacular and she could wiggle, twerk, rotate, and grind her hips like a sexy but very sweet pro. Seeing her gorgeous hair trailing down her back in standing doggy and seeing her sexy smile looking at me in the mirror was a sight I won't soon forget. I've enjoyed some great sex in San Jose, but she was surely one of the best. I was totally spent after the hour. 20 k plus 5 k tip for the BBBJ.

Of course, YMMV, but Candy and Valeria, while not the "hottest girls in the room" were, for me, the "hottest girls in the room". Spanish speaking only.

Hi,

Will likely be in town weekend of April 28th and 29th 2017 (Friday and Saturday), my first time in San Jose. What would be best bar for older (53) polite professional guy? Does any bar have a reputation for the best gals? Seems like Sportsman Lounge has the friendliest staff, which is important, but can it be a dead night there? If its dead, I suppose I could go to Del Rey and just taxi back to Sportsmans, will the gals do that? Everyone, thank you!

It is a good place to watch a ballgame or other sporting event and that's about it. The chicas, at the Sportsmen, are average to below average and certainly not worth a trip to Central America for. The food is mediocre. La Amistad, right down the street from Sportsmen, is a way better value for your money and the food is superior there. For ladies go the Del Rey. It is the best game in town.

I was recently there and will tell you age doesn't matter. If you want to connect with another wingman or two go have a drink at Sportsmen or Amistad and many of the guys there will know the ropes. Sportsmen actually has anywhere from 3-6 girls there depending on the time of day. My last trip I actually came across one who was a solid 8 or 9 which was surprising but some of the guys have been saying some new "talent" has been coming by. If you pay in dollars she started at the $100 spot but easily negotiated her down $80 as it was early evening. As always can save more money by paying in Colones. I then later saw the same girl at the Del Rey who came smiling but wasn't interested.

You can go to Sportsmen and have a drink and grab some food check out the talent and head to Del Rey for a short walk with another wingman you find or grab taxi for a couple bucks. Sportsmen will call a taxi but usually has one or two guys waiting there. Del Rey is literally a 3-5 minute taxi ride from Sportsmen's. Amistad is a 3 minute walk from Sporstmens. Personally, I like Amistad bar better but others like Sportsmen. Just depends.

Del Rey will have a solid 20 or more girls during day time then as the weekend night progresses later upwards of 30-40 or more of all shapes, sizes, and looks (for good and bad). Best place at night to go is Del Rey due to the selection available and ability to sit at any one of the 3 bars and watch the girls walk by and eventually flag one down and have a drink and chat and go from there and play the game. You will have Nicas (Nicaraguan), Dominicans, Colombians, and Ticas (Costa Rican) girls walking around.

If you arrive for the day time, there are a number of Massage Parlors (MP) that are also about a 10-15 minute walk from Sportsmen. Pricing is $25-$40 for 30 minutes depending on which one you end up going to and what more you want to negotiate. From my experience, much rather the Del Rey route and if a Sportsmen girl happens to just pop out of the blue like my last trip.

Sportsmen and Amistad have a "homey" kind of feel since they're smaller properties and easy to find another guy to hit the ground running with. Del Rey, you're in the middle of all the action and go downstairs and back up to your room. Can still run into other fellas to connect with. But there is a chica fee for every time you do. Something under $10 I believe nothing outrageous.

First thank you for taking the time to post such informative replies. What is the deal with some of the reviews on trip advisor, area seems to be scary, with muggings, drug deals, girls slipping you sedatives, etc. How true is this now? If I stick to cabs, am I fine? The Del Rey looks pretty upscale from the youtube videos, seems like a must see place. Take care, and thanks again.

The owner knows what his clientele wants and delivers it. That's simple but not easy to do. Sportsman's is like a taste of home in Latin America which is actually hard to find. They have good sandwiches with Heinz ketchup and mustard. The staff is typically super attentive. Problem girls are banned with little hesitation. And though some go back and forth between the Sportman's and Del Rey, your usual Sportsman's girl will be easier to handle than the worst of the Del Rey sharks, and some nights there are a lot of good choices.

I've never stayed there but if you are good with a room at about $100 or so a night I'the bet you get quality service. Word is the cheaper rooms out near the bar area aren't so quiet.

It might get quiet soon after, assuming there isn't much late-night traffic from guys and their dates noisily strolling by on their way to the rooms in the modern and mansion wings. Or these dates leaving the premises an hour or two later. And the bar opens back up at 7 am along with the nearby breakfast table, frequently attracting a host of early-risers dispensing their "good mornings" and plans for the day. Bottom line: if you are even remotely concerned about the noise factor, avoid these courtyard rooms like the plague.

Avoid those rooms not only because of noise from the bar, but noises you might be making, and general privacy issues. Strictly for rookies and nose pickers. If those are the only rooms available, stay elsewhere. You can still fish in the pond without staying there.

I'll add that the among the early am Breakfast club there are often a few that feel their plans for the days or recounts from the night before are so important that everyone in Barrio Amon needs to hear about them.

First time down in Costa Rica. Spending today in San Jose before heading down to Jaco. First a shout out. Whoever created or sourced that Google map (a few pages prior)- genius. Got here early AM, room wasn't ready (staying at a non-Chica friendly hotel), so strolled around the neighborhood to locate the various spots mentioned in the past reports and on the map.

Partook twice today. First was Krysis spa (Ave 7 and Calle 2)- not worth it. Poor selection and the rooms were run down and did not smell good. Got a half hour session that was one of the lamest in a long while.

Next went to Zona 2. About 5 or 6 girls there and the place was fairly empty. Smoked a Cuban, checked out the girls and got the good vibes from one of them. A short little Nica named Vanessa. Told her I'd be back after I freshened up at my hotel. Came back and she was still around. Bought her a drink and then went up to the room. A very very good session. Total GFE, with BBBJ on her knees and then on the bed, and then with her head hanging of the bed. Fucked in multiple positions. Had my finger in asshole a few times. Think anal is on the cards, but didn't partake.

Hope to hit up one more place before heading to Jaco where I won't be able to hobby.

What is the preferred hotel these days in San Jose? Not interested in the Del Rey or the Sportsmans. I have been to Costa Rica 23 times and am fluent in Spanish just haven't been in almost 5 years.

Kooper
04-01-17, 16:15
Several options I know that are common:

Next best in my opinion would be La Amistad and then Hotel El Castillo which is also managed by the same people and recently opened right down the street. They also do an all-inclusive deal which makes it easy for food and drinks.

You have Hotel Taormina which has a mini-casino and is also nice. Hotel Little Havana. Zona 2 actually has 4 large suites and it's also a massage parlor so you just walk downstairs daily for convenience. Hotel Morazan. Some of the main ones that I can think of off the top of my head but I know there are others that some regular vets can probably elaborate on.

Probably want move to "hotel" thread as well some info there.

Only once have I ever seen one there who I seriously considered going with, most of them are 7's at best IMHO.

And really the food isn't that good either to me, but my wingman likes to eat there so I go along. As long as the music isn't too loud. Which it used to be, was better last time. It is an okay place to eat but overpriced.

The Lodge is the place for guys who can't handle the Del Rey where the real action is, but you got to play it right and know how to negotiate and it helps if you speak Spanish. IMHO. The Lodge has a lot of fans but they're guys who can't handle the DR IMHO.

Personally, I like Amistad bar better but others like Sportsmen. Just depends.

I am pretty brave and have walked from the SL to the DR because I know the ropes and I usually carry a switchblade or pepper spray in my pocket, in my hand.

BUT, that said, I would not really advise anyone to walk from the Sportsman's to the Del Rey. It's dark, if you go the wrong way you can get accosted by trannies who might roll you or worse, and it's a bit confusing even if you know the way to the DR.

Better to just bite the bullet and take a cab.

Sometimes what we do is walk down the street to the next block to get a cab, to save a couple bucks. But. Not really worth it.

Always ask the cabbie if he's using his "maria" (meter) - a lot of the cabbies around there are piratas and they'll gouge you which is one reason I hate using them. If they don't have or use a maria at least agree on the price. And if they have a maria note if they go out of their way and tell them you know what's up. I've seen guys go 6 blocks out of their way to run up the bill.

Agreed to not walk to DR at night from SL. We only do during day time if have a wingman or two. If we feel like walking and there's no rain.

Difference is the SL screens out the problem girls while the Del Rey could give a fuck. The bartenders also aren't trying to fuck you at every turn, so though many of us can "handle" the De Rey, we prefer the more relaxed atmosphere of the SL. Food also is quite good at the SL IF you know what to order, and prices are lower than the Del Rey.

But it isn't an either / or proposition. Sportman's starts to wind down around 11 so afterwards many go to the Del Rey or a strip club.

LOL Old news. You can take a cab if you want, but keep in mind if you deal with the vultures sitting out front, Sportsman's or Del Rey, the price will be double what you'the pay if you walk to the corner and catch a cab driving by. Your vacation. Your choice.

You can take a cab if you want, but keep in mind if you deal with the vultures sitting out front, Sportsman's or Del Rey, the price will be double what you'the pay if you walk to the corner and catch a cab driving by. Your vacation. Your choice.I agree. If you really must walk from SL to HDR, stay alongside the Yellow House and then stay alongside the Culture Center and then use the underpass to walk to Ave 1. Turn right on Ave 1 and go past Colonial Casino to HDR\Blue Marlin entrance. If you must.

It gets dark at like 6 pm. At what time do you consider it not safe to walk at night. As soon as it gets dark or 10 pm?

Look at it as cheap insurance. I agree with the others who advise not to take a cab that sits directly outside the Del Rey or Sportsmen's they are ripoffs.

And addresses are useless if you provide streets, even on business cards, as most think in terms of landmarks. Is true that they all know where the Del Rey is, as well as the Holiday Inn. But other spots in the Gringo Gulch, good luck. To avoid the nonsense I often walk up until about 10 pm. Life involves risks, but they are minimal if you avoid the park.

Is a must.They're hawking on street corners, not hiding out waiting to jump people. Plus they aren't going to do much effective running in high heels. Lolol There are plenty of walkers in the Gulch and nearby areas during the early evening and they aren't all fools.

That said, it is best that newbies and other guys that don't know their way around to cab it.

Arrived at New Fantasy and picked Jimena. I did not see any change from the last time I visited five years ago, so it appears business as usual. A beautiful half Tican half Italian knockout. I did the half hour, but blew too quickly from her BBJ, so I added another half hour and had a good full service session. Total damage was $100.00 USD. 40 $ for each half hour and $20.00 for the BBJ. The only turn off was she was a little dirty. I gave her a massage afterward and noticed she had dirty feet, which indicated she did not shower before the session. She was wearing shoes, so it is not like it happened walking down to the room. I did DATY on her and she tasted fine, but I showered right before coming and expect ladies in the business to do the same.

The Lodge is the place for guys who can't handle the Del Rey where the real action is, but you got to play it right and know how to negotiate and it helps if you speak Spanish. IMHO. The Lodge has a lot of fans but they're guys who can't handle the DR IMHO.What exactly is there to handle? It's not rocket science.

Hello. I have been to Panama 4 times in the past two years and have found the women are very hot! The prices are right around $100-$125 USD. Food is pretty good. It's a pretty active scene at Habanos and Veneto is amusing. My question for those who have been to both CR and PTY. Is CR better or worse in terms of overall selection of women? It seems the price point is about the same. I don't really know why, but I get the impression just from RTFF that Costa Rica just is that good any more. Can some of you guys with experience in both places help me make my decision. Do I return to PTY again or do I pop my CR cherry?? Thank you all! H1.

H1.Having lived in both countries, I find Costa Rica superior for both mongering and non-mongering pursuits. You have considerably more venues to choose from in San José than you do in PC, and that's not even taking into consideration the beach towns in CR. Furthermore, you have a lot more free-lancers in SJ, where you can go to many regular bars and find hookers. I have never paid $100 in either country. I pay $80 at Hábanos. In CR, many of the places have fixed prices. There are few like that in Panamá as well, but not as many. Panamá City is much too hot and humid for me. In Panamá, the cabs do not have meters and even though there are set prices in PC, it's a big argument getting them. Panamá has too many colombianas with fake tits, fake asses, and fake smiles. CR is mostly ticas and nicas, especially if you stay out of the Del Rey. Nicas are a lot more down-to-earth than colombianas. It's illegal to walk down the street with a beer in PC whereas in SJ, as long as it's not glass, you are okay. CR has better hiking and birding and the volcanoes and such are closer to the capital than in Panamá. It's a lot easier to get weed in Costa Rica.

In SJ you have some choices like Sportsman's Lodge, Mónica's, New Fantasy and Bar Malibu that don't quite have panamanian equivalents. So I would say there is a bit more variety of venues, as well as more venues, in Costa Rica. Food and booze in the grocery store is a bit more expensive in Costa Rica, though, and the fact that Panamá uses the US dollar is convenient. The airport in SJ is quicker and cheaper to get to and from than PTY is, although PTY is a better airport overall. I would say somewhat more English is probably spoken in Panamá, although I am not the best judge of that since I don't use it in either country.

So, personally I much prefer Costa Rica and only find myself in Panamá City because of flight connections. Boquete in Panamá is very nice, that is where I lived, but there is not a hell of a lot going on there other than one venue in David that is also full of colombianas.

I was in Quepos and it about killed me. You do know that is the exact middle of the monsoon season, right?

I'd be staying in SJ if it were my first trip and I only had five days. Others may feel differently. But others may not look like a pomegranate after 45 minutes in the sun.

Good afternoon,

I am heading to San Jose for the first time next month and this board has provided a wealth of information. I do have a couple questions if someone has time to answer.

I am considering a condo rental for my 3 night stay, in the vicinity of hotel del Rey and the park. I am iffy on it because I am not sure if the working girls would come back to a condo or do they prefer to stay in the establishments where they are working? Would it be better to find "freelancers" to come back to the condo and if so where would the best place be to scout for them in that area? I guess I am looking for a GFE where the girls will party with us and then head back to the condo.

Sorry for the newbie question.

Thanks for any advice.

I think the gals at Del Rey would be happy to accompany you to your condo; I had no problem getting take-out. I just left CR; was staying elsewhere but went by Del Rey 2 days ago on Monday night. I've stayed there before, but this was work trip and hotel was about 15 - 20 minutes away this trip, so no way I was bringing them back or getting $100+ room at Del Rey. My new friend was happy to leave, but didn't know of a short time hotel nearby. She got directions from security, and a $2 cab ride took us to "Hotel The Office" about 5 blocks from Del Rey for $16 (plus $4 for condoms and her toothpaste). We had a good time, and got a cab to drop her off at Del Rey on my way back to hotel in Pinares (no action out that way).

Monday nights are not very lively, so I picked the best I saw, but nothing there as good as I had met on a Friday / Saturday trip a few months back. I couldn't hear her name, but she was a short blond (fake hair) with moderate fake tits and ass implants that I didn't notice until I grabbed her. She had a problem with her throat and couldn't talk above a whisper, but worth listening to her. I wasn't in the mood to negotiate and she was worth the $100, especially since a hand job happy ending at home is about $150. Kinda reverse. Instead of traditional massage, the happy came first then came a facial massage that was alone worth the price of admission.

Have a good time, and hope the advice on this forum helps; it has certainly changed the way I travel.

Thanks Dickhead. You always come thru for me. I appreciate your insights now and in the past. What are your feelings on Jaco? Is it worth the drive or should I just stay in SJ? I am planning on 5 nights (Weds. Sun.) in August.Mr. D. Head had some good insights about the difference; so I will add mine to this trove of info. After many years of visiting the chicas in CR, I now go to Panama City. Mr. Head is right on the girls; in PTY most are sharks from Colombia and Venezuela who watch the clock (altho I did get very lucky with a regular from Colombia who was fun) while the Ticas in CR are more like party girls you have known in your past (high school, college, etc.). So there's that. Price? Well, 100 will get you a good time in either place. So the reason I will pass on CR now is simply this preference: I just got tired of the poverty in CR. For many years I could look away because the action is so great; but I just reached a point where I need a more upscale environment, and PTY has many attributes of Miami minus the beach: fancy restaurants, nice condos and malls, etc. No poverty unless you search for it; no need to step over people sleeping on the sidewalk (CR) no pushing through touts, bums, etc (the delray). It's easy to look the other way when the chicas are so fun, but after a while it got to me. I'm a world traveler, and I know poverty is a fact of life, I simply got tired of the the decay that is San Jose. And Jaco? Yikes what a dump. Dirt streets, nothing other than the Cocal to interest me, dirty beaches, etc. I had a blast in San Jose for many years, I just can't get past the decay, the poverty now. Anyway, both places are fun. YMMV! Bat.

Dickhead
05-11-17, 16:29
Well, I certainly have been to many countries with way, way more obvious poverty than CR, which has one of the highest per capita incomes in all of Latin America. Although, Panamá does have a higher one than CR. I lived right in downtown San José, in the same block as Zona II, and I never saw any touts. That must be a Del Rey thing; I hate that place. But then again, I never paid $100 for any hookers in either CR or Panamá; the hookers are cheaper in Costa Rica in my experience than in PTY.

I notice that people who go to the Del Rey can't usually spell it correctly so that probably explains why they pay $100; they can't speak Spanish. If I did not speak Spanish I would probably rate PTY more highly as compared to San José, I think. A lot of times people, including mongers, ask me questions like where should I go if I can't speak Spanish. I can't really answer those questions. In any Spanish speaking country, if a hooker comes up to me and starts speaking English, I turn around and walk away. I do the same thing if they are speaking Spanish and start talking about dollars. Gone. My favorite place in CR these days is Pensióand Mónica and even though the owner is a gringo, none of his chicas speak any English that I ever heard. I also like to fish in Bar Málibu, which is owned by a Canadian who can't speak much Spanish, and I don't hear English from any of the hookers in there either. So for those who think $100 is too much and can speak Spanish, those might be good choices. I normally pay 20 k colones to freelancers in San José.

I also notice a lot more hookers from Venezuela now. There are a lot of them in Spain. I guess that reflects the terrible situation that country is in. Ten years ago venezolanas were pretty rare in Spain. I like them better than colombianas for sure.

05-12-17, 14:26
1. I speak Spanish and English FYI. 2. The girls are cheaper in CR because a. They live there, they don't have travel expenses from Colombia, etc. And be. The cost of living is much cheaper in CR than Panama City. I have had hookers in PTY complain to me about living expenses, cost of daily items, etc. So yes you can pay less in CR for the girls, and often you will get girls on the 'nicer' side, less sharks, simply because they live there and have less pressure to churn through clients. I can spell Del Rey. See! CR is NOT a bombed out really poor place like other countries I read about in the news; just in comparison it seems poorer to me and has less first class places then in Panama. For example, you won't find a place that looks like the Panama joints Trump or Hard Rock or Marriott downtown in CR. I guess I just like nice looking places these days. Silly, perhaps. The action is great in CR. I just got tired of the surroundings. Have fun. Bat.

H1.I have been to both PTY and CR over the past 10-years. PTY was much nice before Habanos was remodeled. The traffic in Panama is terrible, all around PC. The quality in the Veneto has gone down since they control what girls can get in. As noted already, the CR girls like to party and don't press you for their time. I prefer to get to know the girl and her personality before doing the transaction. If you stay at the Del Rey, you can't go wrong. I'm not into taking cabs to outlying hotels, which is the norm in PC. The quality of girls in the CR is hit and miss. Many shapes, sizes and nationalities. I'll take CR over PTY any day now.

What are your feelings on Jaco? Is it worth the drive or should I just stay in SJ? I am planning on 5 nights (Weds. Sun.) in August.Jaco is best during the weekend, Friday and Saturday nights at the Hotel Cocal are good. I would only do that drive if I wanted some time at the beach in addition to mongering. There is a good selection at the Cocal but I think the variety of places in San Jose make it a better selection overall.

Greetings fellows,

I am headed to San Jose June 15 for a quick Thursday to Sunday trip. I am a bit confused about something. I have read a lot of info on this forum and it appears that "pensions" offer FS at a way cheaper price than going to the places like sportsmanship lodge. With that being said, why would guys go to the more expensive places? Why not just go to a pension?

This will be my first trip to San Jose so I am just trying to figure out the basics.

Thanks.

Pensions are just a massage parlor with a set group of girls, anywhere from 5-15 generally, typically more 5-10 range depending on day or time and the pension. It's at the place you go to, not at your hotel room. It's point and click with set pricing where you pay for any extras the girl allows.

The lodge and the Rey are places will you will have girls hanging around at different times during the day, more at night of course, for you to decide what you would like to do based on what you two decide together. No set pricing and would be at your choice of place or hotel room. And the Rey will generally have twice as many girls or more in the evening and is open 24 hours since it's a hotel, casino, bar, all rolled into one.

Depends on what you like or prefer basically. Pensions are generally great options for day time action and the other two for evening if you have no contact list to draw from.

Thanks.I have the idea that will be your first trip to any mongering destination. At a pension, you pick a lady and go to the room with her, with very little, if any, conversation beforehand. At the Sportsmans Lodge and the Hotel Del Rey, you can usually spend some time with a lady at the bar to get to know her a little, before making the decision to go to the room. Also, you may be the first customer of the day for the lady at the SL or the HDL; you may be the fifth customer of the day at the pension. For many mongers, at a pension, it's just a mechanical exercise; at the SL, it can feel like you have a relationship with the lady, even if the relationship only lasts for an hour or two.

Dickhead
05-26-17, 16:01
An excellent description of the difference between the two venues. I would add, however, that one can develop relationships with the gals in the pensiones over time. That usually requires living there and being fluent in Spanish. I developed relationships with two ladies from Mónica's when I lived there. Took 4-8 visits but then I got their digits and they would come to my place for a couple of hours on their days off, for a meal, some drinks, and several rounds of fucking. I would give them 30 k, a good payday for them, plus of course the F & be they got. I did this with numerous privado gals in Buenos Aires as well.

With that being said, why would guys go to the more expensive places? Why not just go to a pension?

This will be my first trip to San Jose so I am just trying to figure out the basics.

Thanks.Generally speaking. the pensiones provide very mechanical sex with girls who are clock watchers and really don't like sex and probably don't like you. This is, again, a generalization, and you can get lucky and find a hot girl who is into sex at a pension but it's much more likely to find a girl who's actually into having a good time, at the Del Rey or Key Largo or Sportsman's Lodge.

The last few times I've been into massage parlors I see girls who are sitting there playing with their phones and have the attitude "Gee I hope he doesn't bother me. " Maybe they only need to make x amount of money per day but are required to be there for a whole shift, so they made their quota and they don't want to be bothered. (No it's not ME, I speak Spanish, am fairly attractive, not overweight, not too old, have hair etc. At the Del Rey I have many girls who want to repeat with me and word has gotten around that I am a nice guy who shows respect and kindness to the girls and will give them an orgasm if they are up for it.).

If you do call one over to you at a pension she may talk you up like she's going to show you a good time then you get her back to a room and her m.o. is just to get you off quickly and get back to her phone. Or if it's a full hour you're buying. Like at Zona II, she may want to spend time giving you a lousy massage or whatever but then still get you off quickly and though you have an hour you may release her early after you orgasm. The point is they're just doing a JOB. Working for a place where they take a split of the money. Whereas at the Del Rey the girls keep all the money they make with you, so their independence works in your favor IMHO. They don't HAVE to be there, they can go home any time they want, they can sorta choose the guy they wanna be with at least sometimes, and they don't have to be with anyone they don't like.

So yeah, to me picking up a girl at the Del Rey or Key Largo (I'm not a big fan of Sportsman's Lodge, not enough girls to choose from) is worth the extra money.

A) you have a lot more to choose from.

B) you can talk to them for awhile if you speak Spanish and try to establish some rapport. This helps back in the bedroom!

C) after talking to her awhile you can still decide not to go with her if she wants too much $ or she just doesn't seem like a good choice. She may be bummed if you don't go with her after she's put in some time but there's no rule you have to so I don't unless she convinces me she's going to be good in the bedroom!

D) you can negotiate your own price and some guys prefer to lay out exactly what they want (kissing, anal, BBBJ, etc) and establish a price. Me, I prefer to just negotiate a price and then if I've chosen well she'll do what I want her to do (nothing crazy). To me what's important isn't so much WHAT we do but that we both enjoy doing it (or at least she's damn good at pretending!

Back in the old days I did love Zona Blue because the girls there seemed to want to have fun, some were actually into sex and fun there! But the last few times I've been to the Zona II it's gotten more like all the other places like Idem, New Fantasy, where the girls are just into wham-bam quickie sex, get you off and get back to their phone OR they're just not into the sex or not good at it. Too bad, it used to be one of my favorite places. I keep going to check it out hoping it will improve but every time I go I just see bored girls who don't inspire me to get a room with them. Also the girls at Idem etc will often want to nickel and dime you: 5 mil more for this, 10 mil more for that. UGH. I hate that crap.

The thing about the Del Rey is you can sit there and look at hundreds of girls over the course of an evening and just wait for one who really turns you on, then have some fun at the bar with her, then negotiate a good price, then take her to your own room. And often they're not big clock watchers though increasingly there are more of that type to weed out. That's why you talk to them for awhile. If the girls wants to get you to go with her right away and not sit and have a beer, or two, then forget it, she's just looking to churn out another john, money money money, fun isn't in the equation.

If you play your cards right you can find an amateur type at the Del Rey, a girl who likes sex but just does this once a week for some extra money. To me those girls are the gold standard. You just have to vet them to make sure they aren't con artists which is why you sit and talk for awhile. Sometimes it's hard to tell how they'll be in bed because they're not the type to grab you all over in the bar, they're shy. So it's a bit of an art to figure out if they're going to be good in bed or not. But it pays off BIG if you find an amateur who is into sex. IMHO.

The Blue Marlin (Del Rey Bar) is aptly named to me because it IS like fishing. You angle for the best deal, you do what you think is going to work to catch a "big one" (good one), and in the end there's no guarantee but it's fun to try! And the more experience you get the better your chances are of landing a good one. On the other hand beginners luck can also apply! The Del Rey is just more fun! Going to a pension is just going in to get off and get out quickly and on the cheap.

Mr. D. Head had some good insights about the difference; so I will add mine to this trove of info. After many years of visiting the chicas in CR, I now go to Panama City. Mr. Head is right on the girls; in PTY most are sharks from Colombia and Venezuela who watch the clock (altho I did get very lucky with a regular from Colombia who was fun) while the Ticas in CR are more like party girls you have known in your past (high school, college, etc.). So there's that. Price? Well, 100 will get you a good time in either place. So the reason I will pass on CR now is simply this preference: I just got tired of the poverty in CR. For many years I could look away because the action is so great; but I just reached a point where I need a more upscale environment, and PTY has many attributes of Miami minus the beach: fancy restaurants, nice condos and malls, etc. No poverty unless you search for it; no need to step over people sleeping on the sidewalk (CR) no pushing through touts, bums, etc (the delray). It's easy to look the other way when the chicas are so fun, but after a while it got to me. I'm a world traveler, and I know poverty is a fact of life, I simply got tired of the the decay that is San Jose. And Jaco? Yikes what a dump. Dirt streets, nothing other than the Cocal to interest me, dirty beaches, etc. I had a blast in San Jose for many years, I just can't get past the decay, the poverty now. Anyway, both places are fun. YMMV! Bat.Any website I can look at to pick some good girls?, I had a great time in Panama using the Website there.

I agree with most of what Johnny says although I seem to have relatively better luck than he does in the pensiones and relatively worse luck in Key Largo. I'd add Bar Poá and Bar Málibu to the list of where you can find the once a week types, although caution is needed because not every woman in those venues is a prostitute. But if she comes over and starts talking to you, she is a hooker. Unless, of course, you are irresistibly handsome.

My issue with the Del Rey is the dishonest bartenders.

I've been to CR once before. It was a lot of fun, I paid between $60-$100 an hour depending on what I got, and $200 for an overnight once.

I'm going to head back for the first week in July. What rate should I expect if I just want to keep one girl all week? I booked a room in La Fortuna and want to just go relax. I'm fairly young (28), so I hope I don't get weird looks. Is it best to just pick up a girl at SL or HDR, or are there agencies?

Just got back from a 3 day trip to San Jose and it was great fun. Stayed at the Sportsman (anyone going for the first time, it is a perfect). Some of my observations from the trip:

*Chics were not as hot as they were when I went two years back. Having said that, there were plenty of 7's and 8's.

* Had 4 sessions at Monica's (avenida 8 / calle 4). The host Robert is a really nice dude, very relaxed and easy to talk to. He had a pretty nice line up of 18-20 year olds. Damage: 14000 c / 30 minutes. All the chics had a great attitude and we're up for anything with suffient propina!

* Got and a very good rate at the bcr ATM (next to del Rey) of 569. Big issue is you can draw only 60,000 c / day (approx 100 usd).

* Had a very good dinner at Don Carlos. The Chilean sea bass is a must.

* No change with Del Rey. Lots of chics there. Take your time to make a pick. I barely speak any Spanish but every effort made is well appreciated and can be very rewarding!

* Took one chic, Nataly from SL. She was hot (learns martial arts, jujitsu, etc). Ton of fun, loves dancing and having a good time. She was expensive but worth it.

Overall, despite some negative comments on sjo, I for one, really enjoy my time. The ticas are a lively, fun bunch and can give you a great time, if you are up for the adventure.

Cheers.

You will not find too many women who will think too much of the idea of going someplace for a week with someone they don't know. Also, have you ever considered what you will do if you don't like her after a day or two and she starts to get on your nerves? Because you may not be aware of this, but women can really get on a person's nerves after a while. That is why mongering was invented.

Thanks for your SJO report. Do you mind clarifying the fee at Monica's? Was it 14000 Colons inclusive of full service or did you have to pay extra and if so, what was the total damage on average per girl at Monicas? I gather similar price structure in place at other pensions?

Also as far as expensive goes -what was it like for the martial arts girl from SL?

World Travel 69,

Thank you for the information about the rates. I checked their website but in the FAQ it mentioned that chicas are independent contractors and best to discuss rates with them. My plan was to only visit the place if it falls in my affordability index (it seems it does based on your info so thanks).

I followed the WT 69's map -my observations from last week:

Closed Pensions: Following 3 Pensions are permanently closed or moved elsewhere:

1. Pension Miramar (Calle 2, between Avenidas 10 and 12) -there is a yellow building as in WT's photo on the map but besides a mechanic shop and restaurant on either side of the yellow building, saw no signs of Pension, no sign saying Abierto and no shady staircase. Everything was shuttered up.

2. Sala Venus (Avenida 10 at Central) -couldn't find any Pension. As mentioned on WT's map, yes on the corner of Ave 10 and Central there is a parking lot. It was not clear to me if WT's info indicated Pension being inside the parking lot or outside. Either way, looked both inside the parking lot, only saw dentist office and sign for Banos. I didn't see any red gate. Nor there was anything across the street or adjacent to the parking lot.

3. Tangas Pension and Bar (next to Pension 360 and Josephine night club on same block) -the house looked deserted and if not mistaken had a sign on the door with phone number.

OPEN Pensions:

1. Pension Erotico (Calle 4, between Avenidas 8 and 10, across from Pension Monica) -WT's map indicates may be it is closed but it is not as of last week. I went there after walking out of Monica's for which I had higher expectations based on a recent report. There were 5 girls, no one bothered to say Hello, smile or get up. Fuck that shit and I left as they were busy finger fucking their phones. Walked across the street to Pension Erotico -10 K Colon for 30 minutes, picked the slim chica with nice tetas who made an effort to strike conversation. Very hot in room as no AC or fan -so be warned.

Spent time with chica in following Pensions -my mission was get laid on blue collar budget and Colones:

1. VIP's Tavern / bar / night club -fucked a nerdy MILF looking with hot body and tetas naturales. 12 K Colones / 30 minutes.

2. Pension Jet Set -next to VIP -I think I boned that Nica with jet black hair that someone on this forum has the hots for. 12 K Colones / 30 minutes -saw her 2 x.

3. Krysis - 2 chicas for 30 K / hour -good solid quatro manos massage and sex with both. Made me pop 2 x in one hour. Tipped 10 K for extras and to one girl only. Names escape my memory. Went there 2 x.

4. Pension 360 -weird pricing system and my limited Spanish didn't help. It was 12 K for 30 min but I had to pay 7 K at the counter (was it for the room? Then the girl in room asked for 7 K again -WTF? Someone please explain. But the girl had a hot body and perfect for my taste kind of Senos -we had agreed on 20 K for all extras minus backdoor and she delivered. My total was 20 K + 7 K +7 K -didn't break my bank, had a good experience but wish I understood the pricing model. At Krysis, no hidden charges.

5. IDEM -best looking girls over all but $$. Girls don't arrive till 5 PM. It seems you are obliged to buy at least one pricey drink for chica -the manager was cool, he asked me to wait for 30 minutes and he was right, the girls started coming after 5 PM. Went upstairs with a girl that had happy positive attitude and smiles. I think my total bill minus the drinks was around 32 K Colones. Recommended.

Went to following Pensions but didn't partake for one reason or another:

1. Musas: poor selection, only 2-3 chicas and you better run before they grab you.

2. Malibu: Read 1.

3. Pension Jet Set: Read 1.

4. Bella Mansion (same block as 360 and Josephine): went there in late afternoon, was empty but you could hear the music down the block. The bartender chica said that chicas don't arrive till 5 PM -never returned due to other options.

5. Pension Monica: Walked out due to sour attitude of the girls that were too busy on their phones or too rich to be needing any more money. Good for them.

6. Lipstick night club- cover charge? Sorry not interested, didn't go upstairs and wasn't sure if it is only a strip club or have rooms. Dealing with a guy in suit at an underbelly joint telling you there is a cover charge, go fuck yourself.

7. Zona II: went 2 x, both times closed. Closes at 8 PM -never saw the inside. Note to self: read the operating hours DUH.

8. Havana club next to Zona II: also closes at 8 or 9 PM -never saw the inside. Note to self: read the operating hours DUH x 2.

9. Pension 69: Read 1 -went to IDEM after walking out of here.

All in a day's work? Cerebero if you are reading this, I think we share same modus operandi.

Never, yes never put foot in Del Ray, Sportsman or New Fantasy and no regrets.

I speak Spanish so they appreciate that and it does make it easier to connect on a personal level. My #1 tip if you are serious about mongering in Costa Rica is to learn Spanish. The girls really appreciate it and prefer guys who speak their language when it comes to just having a good time with you.Great report, thanks. I'll be visiting CR in September and the information you gave is very helpful.

I speak some Spanish--I'm not fluent, but it's well past "żDonde está el bańo?" stage--and I think I can talk up the chicas fairly well (trying hard gets sympathy points, as I learned on earlier trips to Latin America) but I can't really get into mongering Spanish with my instructor here, for obvious reasons! I'm trying to work out negotiating a BBBJ at a pensión, and all I have is, "Por favor, tú puedes chuparme sin el condón? żTe gusta? żQue es el precio?" which seems really stilted and formal. Would the understand "el servicio completo" as FS? I'm guessing there is mongering slang in CR, like here.

I'm very good with numbers in Spanish--I learned it for my trip to Argentina and Chile in 2015--so I'm not worried about starting with "cuarenta mil" as my opening bid in colones (thank you RTFF).

Back to RTFF, but wanted to jump on this when I found it.

Thanks in advance!

A couple questions as I might be coming by later this month.

1. Is the action still centered at the HDR and Sportsman's? I assume yes.

2. Prices still try for 60-80 when the girls always ask for 100 or more?

3. Any poker rooms that are better than the HDR?

As I first stepped into the Hotel Del Rey, I was impressed by the sheer size of the place. Two bars, a casino & hotel reception were all mixed into one - chicas everywhere. Quite a contrast to tiny, crowded Habano's Café in Panama City, where I was rudely awakened by my alarm after a single hour of sleep this morning. The HDR seemed a much more comfortable & convivial hunting ground, and the beers (Imperial; 2000 CRC) were cheaper.

As I feasted my eyes on the talent, I soon spotted an exquisite blonde. I didn't need to look any further. She'd be the perfect poster girl to put Costa Rica on the map. If only she weren't talking to some wanker. :p When he didn't close the deal, I hurried over to introduce myself. My attempt at speaking grammarless Spanish prompted her to reply in perfect English. I was suitably impressed! Her father, who emigrated to Canada, thought her English. Great job, dad! :cool:

Kimberly Diamond sounded like a porn star nom d'artiste. Would the performance match? Kissing? Yes, but no tongue. BJ? With condom. Pictures? Yes, but not naked. Not quite porn star material, but I simply had to have this Tica Barbie. Vamos!

Wearing a white dress showing ample cleavage, Kimberly was a photogenic model. She had a 2yo son, but her B-cup titties were hardly affected & she only had very light stretch marks, so she still looked great naked. I wanted to devour her, but Kimberly wouldn't risk any collateral damage - no licking pussy & no nibbling on her tits!

After donning a condom, Kimberly went to work on me instead. She sucked my dick hard & fast. While she pumped & grinded my dick in cowgirl, I just admired the breath-taking view. Kimberley didn't exhibit any real passion, but her clinical & workmanlike performance got the job done.

Costa Rica added. Country #75.

After my date with Kimberly, most of the pretty birds had flown. A fat & older Colombian chica hit on me. She was dead drunk & eventually passed out in the chair next to mine. When I spotted a petite blonde doll, she was talking to some dude. Once again, his loss would turn out to be my gain. :)

As I walked towards my Tica muńeca, Katherine gave me the sweetest smile. She wouldn't allow pictures at first, but soon caved in. Kissing was allowed, on both pairs of lips. :) She wouldn't budge on the CBJ. Vamos!

Katherine had a baby, but her super-skinny body was totally unmarked. Her small titties were slightly sagging. When I licked her sweet pussy, Katherine went wild & got super wet. When I kissed her, Katherine rammed her tongue inside and passionately French kissed me. Wow! :)

Apart from the standard bumping & grinding, Katherine shook her loins in a circular motion, which was visually very appealing. She leaned back, controlling the angle for maximum pleasure. After getting me to sit down on a chair, this tiny creature fucked me standing up. :eek: As she sat down in my lap, she was making circular movements again. Katherine looked like a little angel, but turned out to be a little devil in bed, performing an imaginative & inspired circus act on my dick. Hooray for Katherine! :D

By the time I'd processed Katherine's pictures & updated my trip notes, it was almost 6 AM. Time to sample the hotel breakfast. Living la vida loca! :cool:

The next evening, both of yesterday's blondes were in attendance again. I had the hots for Katherine's best friend, a brown-skinned girl with an exquisite face & lotsa curly hair. When Katherine was off with another punter, I was quick to approach her BFF. Like Katherine, Tatiana was a weekend-only puta from Limón.

Tatiana's wild curls were extremely photogenic. Even though she had 3 kids, she looked splendid naked. Even though I made her cum while licking her pussy, there was no sparkle. Oh well. They can't all be sex artists.

When I returned to the HDR, Katherine was sitting all by her lonesome, waiting for her friend. Tatiana must have found a new admirer very quickly. Whoever the guy was, he picked the wrong girl & missed out on a great lay. ;)

Not impressed with the leftover talent, I started chatting with a grey-haired gentleman from Texas who was a regular visitor to San Jose. It was refreshing to be able to speak English instead of struggling in bloody Spanish. After popping beers until 6 AM, it was breakfast time again. :D

The next evening, I hooked up with last night's compadre again, then watched the talent making their entrance. When I spotted my #1 target walking in, I literally went chasing after her. Jimena was tall & super-skinny, with a lock of pitch black hair draped over her forehead, often covering one eye. This mysterious beauty looked down-right spectacular! I was happy to catch her before another guy beat me to it. :)

My 3 previous HDR girls had wasted very little time before getting to the point, all wanting to go ST ASAP. Since conversing in Spanish requires a serious effort for me, a quick negotiation & vamos suited me just fine. ;) Jimena was different. Even when I urged her to head to my room, she wasn't interested. Jimena was a party girl. So party we did! :D

When my compadre & his Panamanian date headed for Key Largo across the street, Jimena & I followed suit. I'd peeked into Key Largo the night before. Even on a Saturday night, it was almost deserted. I'd only checked the main room, featuring a huge dance floor with some go-go poles, surrounded by mirrors. Little did I know that Key Largo is in fact a huge complex, with different music played in different rooms. Live salsa music was played in a back room. Being European, I'm not exactly in tune with Latin culture. I love to dance, but I don't do dances with names you're supposed to know the steps to. Jimena & I escaped to the main dance floor, where we were all alone. Jimena swung her sexy body around a dance pole, and watched us dance together in the mirror.

With enough liquor inside her, Jimena was finally ready to take the party to my hotel room. I was very surprised when Jimena expected me to have drugs in my room. :eek: I don't do drugs & never gave Jimena any indication I had a proclivity towards substance abuse.

Having caressed Jimena's rock hard body as we were dancing, I couldn't wait to get her out of her tight-fitting dress. Tall & slender, unmarred by childbirth, Jimena had the most superb body, albeit with tiny titties. As I wanted to feast on my nubile sex goddess, I was soon stopped in my tracks. I wasn't allowed to lick her pussy, which was suspicious.

Jimena's snatch was super tight. When I pulled her on top, I had the most spectacular view. Unfortunately, Jimena had little stamina. After banging Jimena long & hard, there was a foul stench emanating from the condom. Though there was no blood, I suspect Jimena had her period. Or something much worse! ;)

Returning to the HDR around 1 AM, the talent pool had been seriously depleted. A chica my compadre had pointed out as a Jennifer Lawrence lookalike was still available. I didn't see the resemblance, but she was pretty. Carolina was in no hurry to leave either, so we chatted over a drink.

After she modeled my tiger bikini, I made Carolina squeal with joy by licking her sweet pussy. I was surprised when Carolina wrapped her luscious lips around my dick… without a condom. :D We boinked each other silly, but the cum shot remained elusive. Partying with Jimena, I'd skipped dinner and wasn't running on full throttle.

It would be much easier to shoot my load without a bloody condom. I urged Carolina to suck my dick again. She wanted a propina. I offered her a 10000 CRC CIM bonus. Even though she sucked great dick, it took an eternity. But Carolina never relented and mercilessly sucked & sucked until she had a mouth full of cum. Hallelujah! :D

My final day in San Jose, I arrived at the HDR early, but wasn't impressed with the quality of the day shift. My eyes lit up when I spotted an exotic cutie in a sexy red dress, but she vanished into thin air. When the lady in red & her girlfriend suddenly sat across the bar from me, I was quick to join them. While most of the HDR girls are white-skinned, Alexia had a much darker complexion. Her long, curly hair gave her a true Latina look. I was smitten!

Alexia claimed she wasn't a regular in the Del Rey. I definitely hadn't spotted her the 3 previous days. She had a tattoo of a garter belt just below her dress. Childbirth had done very little damage to her milk chocolate body.

Alexia loved having her pussy licked. Strangely, she wouldn't allow me to nibble on, or even touch her boobs, though she enjoyed fondling her own boobs. Maybe she was still lactating. To my surprise, I got another BBBJ. :D Alexia was also an excellent cowgirl: grinding, leaning back & squatting. Great girl! :)

I returned to the HDR late on a Monday night to find my final chica. Even though my window of opportunity was closing, I was undecided. I finally went for a gorgeous face with green eyes & vampire teeth. Rereca was a little chubby, though.

No kissing whatsoever. No BJ whatsoever. Rereca's exquisite face & superb tits (no kids) were great assets, but they were trumped by her horrible attitude. In short, my final HDR girl was a total dud. :(

Ticas & Nicas are available at the Del Rey, supplemented by the odd Panamanian or Colombiana. All of my 7 girls were local chicas. I guess I like Ticas.

The pricing seemed to be universal. All the girls started off asking for 100 USD. In local currency, that becomes 50000 CRC (already a 15% discount). Though they'll push hard for 50000 CRC, they should accept 40000 CRC.

There are some damn hot chicas at the HDR. :) In my eyes, the quality was higher than at Habano's Café in Panama, with more variety. And, unlike in Habano's, none of the chicas exhibited a diva attitude. I wonder why there aren't any Ticas in Panama. They can definitely compete with the Colombianas, except for silicone-lovers.

The service ranged from total dud to sheer ecstasy. On average, the service was... average. ;) The HDR girls were very picture-friendly. With a large US customer base, I suppose they're used to punters wanting pictures of their trophy fucks. :D

Smoking is not allowed inside the HDR. Vaping, however, is allowed! ;)

I stayed at the Hotel Costa Rica Morazán, making my reservation through the hotel website, as it offers the lowest rates. I was shown my room by the famous Ricardo, giving him a 1 USD tip. After check-in, Ricardo never bothered me.

After reading the laminated hotel chica policy, I was a bit worried. Officially, I could only have 1 chica per day, who could stay for maximum 4 hours. If I had multiple girls in a single day, or if a chica stayed longer than 4 hours, there was a 25 USD chica fee. Luckily, the aforementioned policy is not enforced. I had 7 visitors in 4 days, and paid no chica fees whatsoever. :)

LosoTicas don't need to go to Panama for a couple reasons:

1. Panama is very controlling over sex workers. For instance, a Colombiana has to pay $300 USD for a "sex worker" visa in Panama. That's why they ask for $150 - $200 a pop. In the old days, Habano's was raided regularly, looking for undocumented sex workers.

2. Places like the Veneto Hotel / Casino have come to regulate what girls are admitted entrance. Odds are you're more likely to meet a local Panamanian in the Veneto Casino, which is why all the Colombiana's go to Habanos.

3. The Ticas in CR have a good enough home base that they don't need to go outside their country. The HDR has to be the biggest brothel in Central and South America.

JMHO.

I just had my 2nd trip to Costa Rica this year this past extended weekend. I arrived on 8/17. As usual I stayed at the Hotel Del Rey. I was located on the 2nd floor which may bother some, but I'm a fairly hard sleeper anyways. I actually didn't hear any noise in my room anyways, but my room was above the registration area as opposed to being directly over the casino or bar areas. The room I got this time was different in that I had tiled floors and not the dingy old carpet. I'm not sure if that room was recently remodeled or what, but in my few stays at the HDR including having stayed on the 2nd floor 2 other times I never had a tiled room floor. In all I spent 4 nights at the HDR. This trip wasn't as wild as some past trips since I was more tame in my selections. I ended up seeing 2 girls on this trip I've seen on past visits. One a Nica I've seen on a few of my past visits (I guess you can say she's my CR regular at this point LOL) and one a Tica I've seen once before. She seems to recall me good since I saw her last Dec and I skipped seeing her on my last trip although I saw her and she came up to me then (I was just in new booty mode on that trip LOL). The other finds were a MILF Tica with some decent natural boobs. She tried talking me into a threesome, but I don't really do those in P2P situations. I also sampled a black Colombian chick. She wasn't too high on my last, but she was ok and I did do some greek action on her which was a first for me in Costa Rica. The final chick this trip (I did sample a few of the previous ones multiple times by the way) was this young, skinny Tica. She was by far the worst experience I've had in CR. I should have known better as I generally try to stay away from the younger looking chicks, but on that night I was looking for a petite, thin, spinner type and she fit the bill and caught my eye in that little tight red dress she had on. Needless to say she couldn't suck dick worth a damn or take dick worth a damn. I should have known when we got to the area where they check ids and etc she had to ask if I had condoms. To top it off after she had left I found out the chick had used my entire new bottle of body wash, used almost all of an 8 oz bottle of mouthwash that was like 80% full, and she took little lip gloss balm LOL.

A few tidbits.

Anyone not new to the HDR can see how certain girls seems to swarm to the old guys rather than some of us younger guys. I know why know they must think they can scam them. While I was sitting at one of the bars like 1 seat over from this older guy. He had a chica sitting next to him. I saw her whipping out her cell presumably to show him the google translation of things since she was limited or spoke no English. Well after a while this chica I had 0 interest came up and set in the seat to the left of me. After she realized I wasn't going to bite she then moved over to the seat to the right of me putting her between me and the older guy whom still had that other chica sitting to his right. Since the girl who set between us spoke English the old guy all of a sudden says hey how much is 100,000 colones cause this is how much she's trying to charge me (he was referring to the other chica sitting to his right) . She's trying to rip me off. I almost burst out laughing because the chica sitting to his right wasn't even hot like that. She was a bit chubby although I had seen her and even thought about checking her out although I was already chatting with some other chica every time I saw her. Anyhow just goes to show the crazy stuff some of these chicks try.

The other tidbit is that I now know why HDR is pats down the Ticos. Well on Saturday night / Sunday morning around 3:30 am'ish a Tico busted a glass bottle up against a Chica's head at the bar in the backside of the HDR. I just happen to walk pass the cashier area pass the phones when right when I turned the corner I saw it real time. Needless to say the Chica went bezerk and some other chicas had to restrain her and the HDR security quickly grabbed the Tico guy in a choke hold. I had no idea what transpired prior to then, but it was crazy. The chica must have manged to lessen the blow with her hand since her face seemed undamaged, but her had was cut and dripping blood. In the end no police were called and they got the guy to get out of them an into a cab then they took the chica someplace in back or something. She was dripping blood all over the place since I later as I was checking in with a girl to go up to my room saw one of the cleaning guys mopping up blood spots right by the elevator area where you check the chicas in to go up to your room.

I also heard a few girls talking about HDR was turning into a family friendly hotel. I can't believe that though, but I at least heard more than 1 girl say it.

Staying at HDR and got the deluxe room this time for 110 as opposed to 65 standard for it is a higher floor. The thin walls and insulation makes it tough to block out noise. So I learned my lesson. Also the Wifi on the ends IMO isn't good so we shall see what happens with that. I really am thinking of going for the 65 standard because the 45 buck premium isn't worth it unless you need the quiet which I'll see how it is.

I like the Sheraton closer to the airport for their beds and rooms are very nice for about the same price as deluxe rooms at HDR but the transport to and from is a PITA.

Looking forward to hitting some hot hoe pussy.

4 weeks ago visited Monica's on Calle 4 between avenidas 8 and 10. Easy to find.

In the afternoon on a weekday found 4 or 5 pretty girls, all not too slim. They are sitting around and don't approach you until you take a step. One smiled at me which made me pick her. Was good choice. Host offered something to drink to give you time to make your selection. Full hour 20 k including 2 pops, everything protected. Nice attitude, good experience. Left happy.

This Saturday second visit around 2 pm. Good selection of 7 or 8, all doable. Picked a slim pretty 19 yo. Very nice body. Not so good attitude, possibly caused by my bad Spanish skills. However, left happy. When I left, no girls were available and several clients were waiting.

Clean room with shower. They change beds after each use. Host is a nice English speaking Gringo.

Monica's is open on Sundays as well.

Long time monger (but newbie in this forum) in Costa Rica. I also heard about the Del Rey converting into a family type of establishment. Heard a general rumor that the Hotel Del Rey will allegedly change their business model and become a family type of hotel and will no longer allow the ladies to loiter around for business. I first heard this rumor around a couple of months ago but its gaining steam. Initially the plan was to make this conversion after their next annual super bowl party in 2018 but now this has supposedly changed. Quite a few girls who work there have told me that the change will now be effective after Halloween this year. Not sure if others can chime in or have heard anything related to this. The girls say that after these supposed changes take effect then only the Key Largo across the street will allow the girls to work their stuff. Dunno.

I'll have to continue to monitor this situation, and possibly switch to Sportsmans? That's what I gather is a good second option from researching the forum. My other thought is just to stay at a nicer hotel and visit the bars and pensions. Hopefully things are still good at HDR, though. Thanks to everyone who posts on this board.

One OK girl at the bar. Empty otherwise.Some of the ladies might actually have been in the rooms, earning some colones! Actually, Saturday can be pretty slow at Idem, for some reason I've never really understood. The more establshed ladies frequently work Monday thru Friday. I have spent plenty of time there over the last 10 years or so, but haven't visited for six months or so. I regularly see one of their stars at my hotel when in town, and she told me just the other day she's now a part-timer due to business not being that good.

Dunno.Just got back from a 10-day stay, and something is definitely up. I say this after talking to some highly reputable sources, both tico and expat. The current owner on the way out. Still an open question what actually will happen, however. Might be converted into a "family-oriented" place after extensive renovations (likely), or, perhaps, new ownership might opt to continue the existing model.

Costa Rica visit from 8/7 through 8/16 in San Jose with 4 days in Dominical +.

Outbound: Aviancia flight from SFO, San Francisco to SJO, Costa Rica left on time at 1. 30 am. Flight first to El Salvador and then a connecting flight to SJO. Strangest thing I saw on the flight to El Salvador. The plane was full of older people. They seemed weathered and old. It must be about 90% of the passengers. I have never seen a plane so full of older people. Majority of the passengers seem to be from El Salvador and they disembarked in El Salvador. The five-hour flight arrives on time and by the time, I got to gate in El Salvador for the connecting flight; all passengers were on board except me. It was a short connection time. I was praying my luggage was transferred. The flight left on time and arrived in SJO on time. What a cattle market the SJO Costa Rica airport is. Lines and lines of people waiting to get through immigration. After a long wait, went to the baggage area. Surprise, luggage was waiting for me. Transportation man from Sportsman lodge was there to take me to the hotel. USD $30.00 charge. Arrived early in the day and room was not ready. Went to bank and a walk around and ate some food. Returned and room was ready when I got back. As the flight was overnight red eye flight, I decided to take a nap.

Hotel Sportsman Lodge: Good enough. Bar food was very tasty and cheap. Stayed 6 days 4+2.

I think the bar area is old and tired looking and could do with a revamp. The hotel does NOT charge a Tica fee. The Reception folks are helpful. The rooms are also decent and good price. In addition, the Hotel has a decent FREE breakfast.

Most of the time, I found the barmaids to be decent looking and better than most of the WG's. I liked Lily from the Reception area. I am sure that if one spent some time with barmaids and front desk talking, they will not refuse some extra money. I talked a lot with Lily but could not get her to some place private and make a proposition.

Ticas: Report on Ticas will not be for each one separate posts but a combined single post. The Ticas ask in USD dollar.

The girls start coming to the bar from about 10.00 AM. Not many but some. Around 5. 00 PM, happy hour, quite a few around.

I found that the majority of the working women were average looking. I saw a granny too, way past due. Over the six days, I saw about maybe half dozen 8-9's. Now the bad part. Even the 3-4's were asking $100.00. I honestly could not have sex with some of these scarecrows. There were some 7's who were doable. I do not mind paying $100.00 but the girl has to be 9 -10. The Ticas ask a lot more for anal and some just do not do it. The top ones were always taken over by the gringos who spend their whole day at the bar whenever I got to the bar in the evenings. I am not a big drinker and visited the bar area only for breakfast and later in the evening. Two days later, I did have this almost 9 sitting close to me and started talking to her. She said that she had seen me last few days and I had seen her with an older man who bought everything for her too. She was quite pleasant and pretty. She mentioned $130.00. I thought that was high. Propositioned $100.00. I asked for a smoking discount, as I could smell cigarette smell from her breath. She would not come down. I can understand that. Last couple of days I had seen her with an older gringo drinking bubbly and I bet he paid her whatever she asked. I am sure she will find a sucker who will pay whatever she asks.

The Ticas make a beeline for the oldest looking gringos. Not the youngest or good looking. They can get better money from older men and spend a lot less time for it.

Overall, you can pay lesser than Cien. Just talk to the girls, be jovial and funny and they start liking you.

I paid $80.00 to one girl for full service including anal and two pops. This was during the day after breakfast. While we were doing anal for some minutes, I split her ass and she was bleeding. She said it was too thick and big. This has happened to me before and not much, I can do about it. Maybe screw some hardcore anal girl with a well-used hole. Decided not to hurt her and stopped anal. She said I can CIM (Come in the Mouth) after the virginal sex without even asking. I fucked her different positions and she gave a BBBJ. When I came, off came the condom and she started giving BJ and got a mouthful of milky stuff. After swallowing, we hugged and kisses and then later she gave a BBBJ with me coming again but less leche.

In the evening, I would go to the bar, have a drink and then go to the back bar and have dinner. After dinner, I would come back to the front bar, have a drink, and talk to Ticas. Ticas ask minimum $100.00 without anal and some ask even more. I decided to play the game and see if I could pay less. Just talked to Ticas and getting to know them. Later discussed and just stated prices are a lot lesser in some countries I just visited. Stated I liked her and would like to have to have sex but at a reasonable rate. After some long discussions, I was able to come down to usd $70.00 for an hour and two pops, including BBBJ and no anal.

All other girls I paid $70.00 for two pops and CIM (Come In the Mouth) without even asking. Is CIM (Come In the Mouth) standard with chicks in Costa Rican? What is the case with other punters? Do the Ticas ask extra for it? The girls not only CIM but also swallowed the cum without any problem. I had BBBJ with all the girls and Covered Vaginal sex. The girls were very friendly like in GF and a lot of fore play. They enjoyed the fore play a lot and some mentioned that Latin men is just boom boom. The girls allowed any position I desired without question. I fucked them in the mouth and they opened their mouths without hesitation. I ask them to go down on me and they would get up and start sucking the cock with such desire until I ask them to stop as they brought me to boiling points many times and I wanted to fuck them also than just come in their mouth. Blowjobs were all BBBJ, enjoyed 69 and the girls licking my balls and anal rim. The women loved having their pussy licked and pushed my mouth hard into it. They were all into having their own orgasms, be riding on the top, missionary, doggy or tit fucking. There was no clock watching. You get your full hours' worth. In addition, the girls are from different countries. I wanted to try, as many different nationalities women as I could find but majority were Ticas. One girl told me that she had sex with a Chinese man and his penis was as small as her little finger. I noticed that the girls did rounds of other bars and spent a lot of their time on their phones while at the bar. They do too use the phone numbers also from prior customers.

I must say, these working girls must be some highest paid people in Costa Rica. One girl showed me pictures of her on vacation in one of the Central American Caribbean country. Life must be good being a working girl charging minimum $100.00 per trick.

I did not go to HDR and cannot say anything about the women in that place. I was getting candy at Sportsman's bar and did not need to go elsewhere.

Overall, in my opinion, Costa Rica was OK but nothing to write home. The Ticas will continue to get business, as there is a constant supply of gringos coming to Costa Rica for sex.

Gringos:

Majority of the gringos in the bar seemed similar. They seemed thickset and out of shape. Heavy drinkers even starting drinking earlier in the day. I saw one go through two bottles of whiskey in the evening by himself. Another older man was having the time of his life with two Ticas buying them everything and himself drinking heavily. He could not even stand straight. Eventually, the two babes held him upright and dragged him to his room to separate him from his money. Wonder how many hundreds of dollars partied? However, it is his life and he was living it. Can't take the money with you? Maybe I will be doing the same when I can no longer have a woody.

I saw one gringo heavily spending on three girls and after a while, they departed to his room. It did not take more than 15 minutes for them all to return and restart the drinking and playing pool. Another minimum $300.00 for a 15-minute act.

The girls got their act all worked up. Ignore the young and good looking and make the money off the older men more quickly.

Every Day Cost Rican Women (not Pros):

Visited SJO downtown many times. What I noticed that majority of the women were pretty fat and out of shape. Occasionally saw a decent looking one. In my opinion, I think that majority of the Costa Rican women are fat, average looking and a small percentage decent looking. While I was in Panama in the Second part of my trip, I ran into a retired gringo from Costa Rica. He said that 10 years ago, Costa Rica Ticas where slim with nice bodies, then American fast food and coke came to Costa Rica, and the women got fat.

Domical:

Visited this place as a possible retirement destination. Stayed 4 days. It poured like hell every day.

One day, I decided to walk to restaurants and then go to a bar for some music. Rain had stopped when I went. Therefore, it was the shirt and shorts and off I went. Good Thai food and while eating, the rain returned. After dinner, I had to cancel trip to the bar / music as rain was not relenting and it was pitch dark. The roads are not paved and big puddles on and off the roads. Without light, you can fall into these big puddles and a good chance hurt yourself. I had no light nor umbrella. On top of that, the streets are not well light. Guess what, I fell a few times off the road into the deep puddles and luckily did not break anything. At one time, I even banged into a tree so hard that my glasses fell off. Imagine me looking for my glasses in pitch dark. I was not sure if they were in one piece or broken. I looked and looked, scraping the mud and as I turned around after some minutes, I found them behind me. There was mud on one lens and the lens had dislodged a little but not broken. Decided to head back to the nearest bar and the bar tender sent a guy with a light to assist me to the hotel it was only a couple of minutes away but without a light, a major problem. From then on, I wore a rain jacket and an umbrella plus my phone with flashlight apps all the time. What a night.

Beaches: I went to the beach and found that it was a pebbles beach. Big pebbles and definitely not a sunbathing beach. It is for surfers and I did find quite a few white folks around this very small town, heavily out numbering the few locals.

Dominical has sand underneath the pebbles and could be a sunbathing beach if the city clears the pebbles. Not an easy task. An improvement on the street lighting should help and fill out the large puddles on the roads. Cannot see it happening. Also, found that eating out was more expensive than SJO.

As you go further south of this 3-4 street city to Uvita and Ojochal, it becomes more gringo and no locals to be seen.

All this talk there about eco this and that is all BS. It's all talk, as you need to rent a car to get anywhere, as transportation is very expensive. Therefore, with all those rental cars using gasoline and gas fumes is not much eco. In many places, you need a 4 x4 SUV, as roads are not paved. Costa Rica is a big fraud. I found eating out to the normal run if the mill restaurants was more costly than in California. Let us not even talk about the more expensive restaurants. A total fraud. Do not understand why it is so expensive. The gringo's effect? It is more like the gringos buying property and then fleecing gringo visitors.

I am looking for a sunbathing destination and less touristy. Hence, Costa Rica is not the place.

Communication:

In Costa Rica, I did not buy a local sim card. In addition, my USA carrier H2 O does not work here. I found that the Ticas use WhatsApp. In addition, I can look up and send emails by using just Wi-Fi. I can call or text both via WhatsApp. However, this is limited to WhatsApp recipients only. Point I am making is that, in countries where people use WhatsApp or WeChat, the need to buy local sim card does not exist. WhatsApp does not need a sim card once you have verified a number on some phone.

So far, I have been using WhatsApp for all communication.

Overall opinion on Costa Rica:

There will always be gringos from places in USA making the short trip to Costa Rica to full fill their sexual needs as $100.00 is not too bad compared to what they'll have to pay back home. Personally, I found Costa Rica to be a very expensive and over rated country. It is the most taxed and expensive Central American country. Many gringos everywhere. Maybe that created the price explosion. Nature wise, nothing that is not present in many other countries. Nothing exceptional. Ticas mostly fat and out of shape with a few decent looking. As for me, I have seen a lot better countries both nature wise and women. Moreover, women are better looking and prices are much lesser elsewhere. SJO is an average looking city. Went on city tour to learn about the city.

Costa Rica would not be a country to make a second visit for me. I did not find it exciting at all. This is my opinion and not a recommendation. Gracias. Keep hunting.

Costa Rica visit from 8/7 through 8/16 in San Jose with 4 days in Dominical +.

Outbound: Aviancia flight from SFO, San Francisco to SJO, Costa Rica left on time at 1. 30 am....Really appreciate this lengthy post. I will be staying at Sportsmens in November. This helped me a lot.

Really appreciate this lengthy post. I will be staying at Sportsmens in November. This helped me a lot.I am glad you got helped. The staff at the Lodge go out of their way to help the guests. The setup is good at the Lodge. Hit the front or back bar when you want, play pool, watch games and the bar daily special food is very delicious and also cheap. Talk to girls and most are not pushy for lady drinks. It's up to you. Once you have agreed your deeds for a price, take the girl (s) to your room and take your alcohol with you. Return afterwards to the bar and do what ever you. The rooms are cleaned daily. There is also a some weights and weight machines plus cardio bicycles if you feel like exercising. Walk to the downtown is short. Taxi from airport is $30.00 and back to airport is $25.00. Free hot breakfast from 8. 00 AM and otherwise breads / fruits only from 5. 00 AM. The City Bus tour is $70.00. Worth it as I saw a lot and learnt a lot about Costa Rica and San Jose. Includes lunch. Hotel has other tours too.
When I sent to Dominical after 4 days, the Lodge let me keep my suitcase in their storage for no charge as I was coming back after visiting Dominical.
Enjoy your stay.

Yes, there were a ton, pun attended, of fat gringos in the SL. All of the girls wanted 100 US.

I'm glad that I experienced the place. I enjoyed the white water rafting more than my stay at the SL; sad huh?

They said that what I feel about CR, they heard the same from some friends who were visiting them and they also said that CR was over rated and expensive, They were on their way to Spain and it was cheaper for them to fly to Panama and buy the tickets there than in Costa Rica.

When I first walked in I immediately regretted my decision to stay there. I had a room in the mansion wing, nothing luxurious about it. The carpet was in dire need of deep steam cleaning. The Cocal in Jaco was much more to my liking. In the end, I made the best of my time in CR, had several good sessions, but I won't be returning. I had a much better time in Panama.

Long time monger (but newbie in this forum) in Costa Rica. I also heard about the Del Rey converting into a family type of establishment. Heard a general rumor that the Hotel Del Rey will allegedly change their business model and become a family type of hotel and will no longer allow the ladies to loiter around for business. I first heard this rumor around a couple of months ago but its gaining steam. Initially the plan was to make this conversion after their next annual super bowl party in 2018 but now this has supposedly changed. Quite a few girls who work there have told me that the change will now be effective after Halloween this year. Not sure if others can chime in or have heard anything related to this. The girls say that after these supposed changes take effect then only the Key Largo across the street will allow the girls to work their stuff. Dunno.I'm going to be visiting CR again in December. Even though I've brought the flight already I will wait until sometime in November before I book the hotel and I'll probably contact the hotel directly so I don't end up with any surprises LOL.

I've always thought it would be great if they put a pool in for both the Gringos and the "ladies". To that end, they could tear down the Key Largo and put a pool in there, ha ha. I don't doubt though, that the revenue at the HDR has been going down year after year (much like the quality of girls). But, I plan to ride the HDR to the very end.

San Jose is not as bad as some of you may think. I've been to Costa Rica nearly 20 times. I live in Florida and the flight on spirit airlines is dirt cheap. The HDR is legendary. It will never be a family hotel in my view. It will always be known as the pink pussy palace. I've had incredible experiences in HDR with some of the most beautiful ticas on the planet!

Have met countless monger's who I'm still close with til this very day at HDR. I personally know the entire staff and have always been treated good. The one complaint I have is the charging to take a chica up to your room. Absolutely ridiculous.

Costa Rica is a beautiful country with beautiful people. The Ticas are some of the best in bed that I've ever experienced.

OK, and website for Sportsmans makes the rooms look really nice. Thanks for the advice.In my opinion the SL is not a good place to stay. Why?

1) very few girls in comparison to the del rey / key largo scene.

2) most rooms at the SL are noisy (but then I guess they are at the DR too).

3) SL is mostly older guys. In their 60's, which is okay but I like more of a mixed crowd.

4) SL hand picks the girls which to me is too limiting; I like the variety and mass quantity of the Del Rey.

5) SL is too much like a sports bar (thus the name I guess).

6) SL is a place you can't walk to and from like the Del Rey is and the taxi drivers overcharge especially at night.

C5.It is hard to believe any new owner would stop the mongering at the DR. Why would they take a hotel that is always full, always has a full bar, and trade it for a family place where there will be little or no bar business (I would guess)?

I'm not sure but I don't see the Holiday Inn as being all that busy most of the time. So why compete with that?

Hopefully Key Largo will take up the slack! Back in the day, it was the only game in town, and things were just fine over there. BUT.

Does anyone else think that KL goes way overboard on the super-LOUD music? Jeez, that place gives me a headache!

IF they take up the slack of the DR being shut down to mongering, (IF it is shut down, that is), I hope to god the Key Largo will stop playing that head-splittingly loud music over there, at least in ONE of the bars.

Problem is they have the live band in the middle so that's bad enough. But then that other super loud room in the entrance area at the rear. It's insanely loud and obnoxious.

I'd like to petition the management there to consider turning the music volume down! Surely I'm not the only one who finds it unbearable!?

Not going to happen. There will be zero revenue coming in. Zero! The pink pussy palace will forever be known as the pink pussy palace.

The booze and the chicas is what keeps the customers constantly going there. This situation reminds me of Club Help In Rio de Janeiro. The owners sold the building that Help was located in. Thus putting a lot of people there out of work. It changed Copacabana forever. No more tourists!

The incomprehensible thinking in some of these business owner's mind is mind boggling! Key Largo I do believe can and will pick up the slack. The Delmar restaurant will be shut down to make room for the girls and the monger's.

The music in Key Largo sucks ass!! I'm a young guy and whenever I walk thru there I have both my hands covering both my ears! LOL! The live band is horrible!! The worst band I've ever seen!

C5.The version I heard is that management wants to get the girls out of the hotel lobby and force them to work out of the Key Largo, which really makes sense to me. The Key Largo could use the boost. Once you've made your selection, you take her over to the Del Rey. It's a win-win as I see it. The Veneto in Panama City works much the same way by limiting the number of girls allowed in the casino, then they need to be accompanied back in when the "date" is done.

I know there aren't that many chicas there anyways during the early daytime, but that would be even worse if they cut off all chica access before 8 pm every day.

Absolutely it could be open 24 hour's and then if a guy has a room in the Delrey, he simply takes her across the street. However in my opinion, It will never be the same. The Rey is legendary for monger's all around the world. Supposedly after this Halloween, we will know more about the status of the DR.

Monger venues change, and places shift and change with the time. I am in my early 50's (one of the old guys, perhaps, as a few of our younger brothers are seeming to focus on), and first mongered in San Jose in 2003. At that time, the favorite mongering hotel was the Presidente. Each morning, guys would meet by the rail of the resteraunt, and swap stories over a buffet breakfast, or hang out with their date- it was a nice way to end a TLN. A few years later, it began to become less monger friendly, and at that point, everyone predicted the death of the hotel. What they did not understand is that mongers are only a very, very small part of the tourist scene that comes through San Jose. Many are also very, very cheap (not all). The Presidente soon became a family freindly place, only two blocks from the Del Rey, and has thrived.

There is a lot we don't know about the financial picture or the Del Rey.

1) Is it really always full?

2) What type of payoffs to they need to pay in order to keep open? I would not minimize this.

3) How much does the bar really make? So many mongers are so cheap!!

4) How much revenue comes from gambling?

5) Have they been told by the city / government that the gig is up? Perhaps that is signaling the change? We just can't know.

Every scene has shifted and changed. Good freinds say that Ermita in Manila was the best mongering venue ever (the 80's). It shut down, Subic declined, and then Angeles City took off.

And with the internet, mongers move around, change their style, how where and how they go. Some guys don't even bother with "venues" anymore, and stick to facebook, tinder, seeking arrangements, badoo, ect ect ect.

I have no idea of the DR is going to close, but it could, and at some point, most likley will. Just like Help (Rio). Just like Tequila Rock (Lima). Just like the origional Zona Blue, which really never recaptured the magic of its early years.

The good ol' days come and go. We create new ones.

E. The "big three" strip clubs of el centro). Still a great place, but with the internet and other means of accessing chicas, other towns are starting to have their pull, at least for me (after, say, six or seven trips to Medellin).

I have been living in Costa Rica for the last 30 years, I am therefore one of those whiteheads.

Maybe the newcomers think the HDR is full and active may I throw some cold water on their parade.

I was there again two weeks ago, and here is my take.

Whereas some 10 years ago you could literally not walk through the bar area it was so full of girls and punters today there is no problem walking amongst the patrons no pushing. The girls were everywhere and the quality was at its best. (ahhh good memories).

The casino was busy with all the tables having gamblers with piles of chips in front of them. Today there was only 3 tables open and many seats were empty.

Then 2008 happened. The dollar lost its exchange superiority. Slowly I have noticed the decline in the number of customers, and those that showed up were more careful with their capital. The girls started raising their prices to maintain their standard of living or / and the quality of service declined gradually.

Let's face it. The dollar decline has impacted enormously on the trade down here, and I might add throughout Latin America, as I note that Panama since the end of the construction of the second canal (and where I also spend nearly half of my calendar now) tourism in our field of endeavour is way down as Habanos is lacking patrons on many nights and the Veneto is in my eyes empty.

I am afraid the golden years have gone. The HDR closing down and becoming family friendly would not surprise me in the least.

Put me down as a 'no' vote on that one. SJ would be much better without the HDR and with all those chicas dispersed throughout other venues. And more of the dominicanas would leave, which would be another plus.

It's one thing to sell the Delrey and simply just change ownership, it's a whole another thing to sell it and transform it to a family friendly hotel. Not going to happen. There will be zero revenue coming in. Zero! The pink pussy palace will forever be known as the pink pussy palace.

The booze and the chicas is what keeps the customers constantly going there. This situation reminds me of Club Help In Rio de Janeiro. The owners sold the building that Help was located in. Thus putting a lot of people there out of work. It changed Copacabana forever. No more tourists!

The incomprehensible thinking in some of these business owner's mind is mind boggling! Key Largo I do believe can and will pick up the slack. The Delmar restaurant will be shut down to make room for the girls and the monger's.

The music in Key Largo sucks ass!! I'm a young guy and whenever I walk thru there I have both my hands covering both my ears! LOL! The live band is horrible!! The worst band I've ever seen!

C5.I totally agree with what you said. It is unfathomable to me that any business owner would be stupid enough to get rid of a bar that is full of 50-200 (drinking customers EVERY single night of the week! You'd have to be stupid!

So glad you agree with me about the Key Largo music and glad to know it's not just because I'm "an old fogie". I love rock music, I love some Latino music, I love blues, jazz. And loud is okay too. But not SO LOUD it gives me an immediate headache! It does seem that first bar when you come in tends to attract the Ticos and many many Ticos love music so loud it can be heard for miles. Literally. So hopefully if they move everything over to KL if enough of us complain about the loud music and horrible bands they might change it?? Don't know but it's worth a try. I for one will be complaining as high up the chain as I can get because I literally cannot stand being in that place for more than 3 minutes with the music not only too loud but also lousy!

I have been living in Costa Rica for the last 30 years, I am therefore one of those whiteheads.

Maybe the newcomers think the HDR is full and active may I throw some cold water on their parade.

I was there again two weeks ago, and here is my take.

Whereas some 10 years ago you could literally not walk through the bar area it was so full of girls and punters today there is no problem walking amongst the patrons no pushing. The girls were everywhere and the quality was at its best. (ahhh good memories).

The casino was busy with all the tables having gamblers with piles of chips in front of them. Today there was only 3 tables open and many seats were empty.

Then 2008 happened. The dollar lost its exchange superiority. Slowly I have noticed the decline in the number of customers, and those that showed up were more careful with their capital. The girls started raising their prices to maintain their standard of living or / and the quality of service declined gradually.

Let's face it. The dollar decline has impacted enormously on the trade down here, and I might add throughout Latin America, as I note that Panama since the end of the construction of the second canal (and where I also spend nearly half of my calendar now) tourism in our field of endeavour is way down as Habanos is lacking patrons on many nights and the Veneto is in my eyes empty.

I am afraid the golden years have gone. The HDR closing down and becoming family friendly would not surprise me in the least.
Mellow.Mellow, I don't know what you are talking about! Dollar decline? Canadian dollar yes! The US Dollar is the best it's been in years! I live here and I know.

I was at the Del Rey 6 months ago and it was so full it was like sardines packed in a can. That was a Fri or Sat night. Were you there on a Mon or Tue or something?

Also the quality of the girls was great. True, a few more fatties but also 50 - 100 decent to great looking ones to choose from. Let's put it this way: if you couldn't find someone to go with the nights I was there, you've got a personal problem!

I live here, the dollar is STRONG, and I can almost guarantee you that at least on weekends the Del Rey is full. However right now is the worst of the rainy season here so it is POSSIBLE tourism is down but it'll be back up in December.

This is based on hearsay but having been attending KL and DR for 25 years or so this is my take on it:

People are saying if you call the DR and make reservations for Nov and ask if the bar will be operating "as usual" with girls, the answer is YES.

I've heard 3 reports that people in the know at the hotel are saying there is no change to business as usual.

Admittedly this is hearsay and I don't really KNOW but I would almost be willing to bet money at this time, that the Del Rey will certainly be open and do "business as usual" in November. Beyond that who knows?

But if the rumors are wrong about Nov they may well be wrong about the future as well.

As I've said in other posts, it just wouldn't make sense to close down the mongering business associated with the Rey. MAYBE they might move the girls over to KL or the restaurant, that is a possibility.
But while things might be slow now, over the past year in general the business has been about the same as always. 6 months or so ago when I was there the Del Rey was packed one night, and suitably busy the other night. Why would any business owner shut that down when selling drinks is a very profitable business and you've got guys who sit there for 4-6 hours at a time and buy drinks for girls too!
Just wouldn't make sense on any level to shut down that business. They don't even pay the girls, who are the main attraction! That's a "dream" of a deal for a bar!

I believe the business is down in DelRay since it's hay days. When I went last year it was half dead. Those girls who were there half way decent had a chip on their shoulder. No more GFE types who would love to be with you long time. I remember the days when part timers used to come there and I had kept them for couple of days and had fun taking them everywhere. I never stayed there so do not know the condition of the rooms.

Unlike hotel presidente whose transition to family friendly hotel was evidently successful, with Del Ray it is anybody's guess. They certainly cannot close down Casino and the bar which is in your face if it becomes family destination.

The Del Rey area is still a tourist location ;) There are museums and stuff like that around. But there are girls, bars, and brothels around too.
So it's mainly for another type of tourist. Just a different type of tourist spot. :D

' Then there was the Cuba Dave fiasco, as you mention, which attracted a lot of unwanted attention. Costa Rica is a pretty unique Latin country in that it was never really fully conquered or colonized, and no one really cared because they have no extractable metals to speak of. So the whole virgin / working girl thing and the whole mestizo thing were way less influential and thus way less ingrained in CR, and that is probably why prostitution developed somewhat more openly in CR than in other places. It's not hard to see why the powers that be would want to tone it down some.

Gents,

Was in HDR on Tuesday of last week and had no issues with either the numbers or looks with the working girls in attendance. Beautiful women outnumbered the mongers even though there were some women that were either on the heavier side or not as attractive as I desired. Had a fabulous time with a slim 28 year old that went for well over an hour. She was talkative, funny, and a complete hottie in the room. There are few things better than seeing a genuine smile and feeling genuine multiple orgasms from the woman I'm nailing, and it was awesome. Her humor culminated in saying at the end when she is covered in sweat and nearly breathless "Wow, you were so good that next time I might do you for free". Of course I don't believe her, but it certainly made us both laugh.

What was the cost?

C5.Sorry for not posting previously. It was $150 for two hours, which I was fine with. I ended up giving her an extra $40 because it was literally an absolutely awesome time. I don't quite know how to describe it otherwise. Other than to say that it was the best time in the sack that I can ever remember due to her smiles, enjoyment, actions and enthusiasm mixed with sensuality.

As another data point, when I returned to the HDR to re-hydrate I was approached by another slim beauty that wasn't there when I'd been in the bar earlier so she didn't know that I'd already been thru one of the best sex experiences of my life. I kept being very polite and saying "No, gracias" so she kept lowering her price. At her offer of $60 for an hour I just bought her a drink and left. I would have done her in a heartbeat if I'd not been drained.

Data point #3: About a month ago I took 2 chicas to the hotel around the corner for an hour. I'd never done that before so wanted to get a check in the block. They were not inexperienced with this and knew how to maneuver around to make everyone happy. I ended up really liking one, and the other figured it out and wasn't put off at all. She just slapped my butt and said "Have fun" and went to rinse off. Paid them $80 each.

I've only been in town on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings so am hoping that at some point in the future I can actually be there on a Friday or Saturday to see what it is like.

Best of luck to all,

Chris.

There is a hotel across the street from HDR but if the chicas get seem by HDR management, they will get banned, so many will not want to go there.

I recently used WorldTravel69's list in San Jose and have the following info:

1) Centro de Masajes does not exist.

2) Pension Monica increased the rate for 1/2 HR to 14,000 colones but kept the hourly rate the same at 20,000 see (FS). BBBJ is usually available at a 5 K C. Surcharge.

I highly recommend you go for the hourly rate. This place has about 20 girls in rotation and usually about a dozen at any one time. Hours are 7 days / wk, 9 am to 7 pm. The hours are deliberately designed to cater to businessmen and tourists, as they avoid the drunken crowd that comes out later. The manager's focus is on Customer Service, a rare commodity in this business. He selects the girls for no drug use, no fake tits, and great attitude. Believe me, it works. I will dream of Diana for a long time. Because of the place's good reputation they get both local businessmen and referrals from several hotels. It is located on Calle 4 between Avenida 8 and 10, near the pedestrian streets in downtown.

ATM is your best friend. Been said many times on these pages, avoid exchange offices especially ones in the airport. The only country you most likely won't get screwed (or screwed badly) for exchanging currency is China as the government strictly controls the exchange regime. But still, always use your ATM and notify your bank ahead of time of your travel plans so they won't block your card if used outside of your home country.

Thanks.Since the SL quotes the room rates in dollars, you should use dollars to pay that. Everything else, use colonies. It is not easier in pay in dollars anywhere you go in SJ, unless the price is quoted only in dollars. Some of the ladies know the exchange rate, and may insist on dollars; but most will accept colonies at 500/1. Make sure you negotiate with them in colonies. You don't want a scene with them demanding dollars because that is what you offered them.

All you need is your passport and the address of where you are staying.

One of the problems is that most banks have a low withdrawal amount. If you want more than a couple hundred dollars in colonies, you will probably have to go to more than one bank's ATM. The banks and the Colonial Casino will give you good exchange rates. In the airport, on the departure side, there is a Bank of San Jose that will give you a good rate. Walk in to the departure area and turn left. Go all the way to the checkpoints. The Bank of San Jose is on your left. There are money exchange booths in that area also.

First of all you naysayers who say there is no more GFE and no more big crowds of girls have apparently gone on bad nights. Both still exist and not that rare at all.

Maybe the GFE is a little harder to get than it used to be but you can still get it.

As to crowds last time I went (last July or so) the place was PACKED like sardines. And I've heard reports of the same thing since then, in the past several months.

I absolutely cannot believe the HDR will close or kick out the girls. They are business men, not stupid idiots. Why would they kill the goose that lays the golden eggs?

DO NOT bring $100 or $50 bills, people are afraid of them, there have been many counterfeits. Maybe it's better than it used to be but use $20s or even $10s to avoid problems.

Get a Capitol One 360 account in the USA. No ATM charges and good exchange rates without exchange fees. I closed my Chase account quickly and use CapOne which is awesome. No need to bring much money to CR just use your Cap One debit card in most any machine in Costa Rica. Occasionally an old machine won't accept the new Chip cards but not hard to find ones that will like at Scotia Bank or BCR. I live here and use Cap One exclusively so I never pay an ATM fee nor ridiculous exchange fees.

No one should ever pay over $100 to a girl, they will think you're a sucker and you'll drive up the rate to the rest of us. I try to pay 40 mil which is about $70 and I never pay more than 50 mil which is around $87. You need to negotiate a little! If you're in love with her and she refuses to go that low then okay give her the $100 but try not to. $100 is a cr*p load of money here!

As others have said, using ATM's is a good idea. One of the problems is that most banks have a low withdrawal amount. If you want more than a couple hundred dollars in colonies, you will probably have to go to more than one bank's ATM. The banks and the Colonial Casino will give you good exchange rates. In the airport, on the departure side, there is a Bank of San Jose that will give you a good rate. Walk in to the departure area and turn left. Go all the way to the checkpoints. The Bank of San Jose is on your left. There are money exchange booths in that area also. Ignore them and go to the bank.I have pulled $1000 a day from Scotia Bank in 2 withdrawals back to back. Haven't pulled that much since last year so maybe it has changed but I doubt it. I pulled $450 recently in one pull at the Scotia ATM. Pretty sure you can still do 2 back to back at Scotia.

At BCR the limit might be around $200 but you can do 2 back to back, I did it the other day. It said "You've reached your limit" and so I put my card back in for another limit!

At Davivienda you can also get quite a bit, maybe $500, I forget.

It's always possible. Like most things in CR. That different cities have different rules, or different branches do (though I doubt different branches do). So bring 2-3 cards just in case one doesn't work.

But I do use my Cap one card exclusively and have yet to have a problem and I use it every week and have for 2 years here.

First of all you naysayers who say there is no more GFE and no more big crowds of girls have apparently gone on bad nights. Both still exist and not that rare at all.

Maybe the GFE is a little harder to get than it used to be but you can still get it.

As to crowds last time I went (last July or so) the place was PACKED like sardines. And I've heard reports of the same thing since then, in the past several months.

I absolutely cannot believe the HDR will close or kick out the girls. They are business men, not stupid idiots. Why would they kill the goose that lays the golden eggs?

This Thursday, the imminent sale and remodeling of the Del Rey Hotel in San José was confirmed on an unofficial basis, which will give way to a new establishment aimed at family, tourism and business, without the well-known sex workers who have given such fame to the site for years.

According to sources close to the hotel, which can not be revealed, but full credibility, the property will undergo a total renovation, in the coming days and after the famous Halloween parties.

"The sale is still in that, what is completely certain is that it will be remodeled to move the girls (sex-servants) to Key Largo. Before the start of the remodeling, the famous Halloween parties that are traditionally held on Friday, Saturday and Sunday will be held. Where many people come from outside and the hotel is full, "said the source.

MUNICIPALITY.

Asked about it, Johnny Araya, mayor of San José, said he knows nothing about the sale or remodeling of this well-known property in the capital. "I still do not know anything, nor do I have knowledge," he said.

DIARIO EXTRA investigated that to date, no permits have been processed or documentation submitted for any remodeling of the property. We will continue informing.

Key Largo is a joke. Yes the girls will still go there but it won't be the same as the infamous DR. I have been going to the DR for the past decade and have many many many beautiful memories there. I met my best wingman ever right there in the DR, and we still travel the world together mongering til this day.

DR will never be a family oriented hotel. Especially with all the hookers right across the street at Key Largo.

Thanks for letting us know.

Called reservations at the Del Rey to book my January trip and the girl emphatically stated that the Del Rey is NOT closing. She said that they are aware of these rumors and that's all they are - just rumors and that they are tired of them. She said that there will be systematic remodeling going on but that's it. She seemed rather annoyed by the whole situation. She also said the newspaper article is false.


Worst case scenario is that the girls would very probably move on to Key Largo, Sportsmans, Taormina, etc.

Paddy from Prague.I will be down there in 10 days, so will report to all what I can find out from asking around as well. I am certainly not well connected to anyone there, but will write a note on what I can find from conversations in both English and Spanish.

My best experience in decades was from there so am also hoping for rumors to be false. Cheers!

I will be staying at Sportsmens Lounge. I heard it's a good idea to bring USD to pay the bill in cash. What about the girls, and in SJ in General? It it easier to pay in dollars, or could I gain a little something on the informal exchange rate of 500 colones / dollar? And while I'm asking questions, I have one of the all time dumbest questions, but I'm going to ask it anyways- I have a passport, there's nothing else I need to do, right? Just fly on down there with my passport? I don't need any visa?

Thanks.Best exchange rate is with a credit or debit card. 500 to the dollar is a scam. A dollar is normally worth 570 +-colones.

Or just try to talk them up downstairs, and if they aren't mercenary-acting, does that suggest GFE as a possibility?I would think that most of them. But probably not all. Know what "trato tipo novia" means. If they don't seem to understand the term, tell them you want "bay-so's cone leng-wa" (besos con lengua) or kisses with tongue, ah-bra-so's (abrasos) hugs, etcetera. And that they don't hurry or "sin prisa" (seen pree-sa).

But I seldom ask for it though I will probably ask if they kiss.

Considering where their mouths have been though, I won't ask for kisses unless I know they just arrived to work and I'll be the first of the night!

First off "Diaro" is not a reputable source of news so the "newspaper report" is questionable.

What I have heard is that the Del Rey will be remodeled after the Super Bowl and that some of the girls will be allowed at Key Largo but not all.

Even this makes no sense to me. Why, if you are operating a bar, would you want to limit the number of drinking customers?

And even if the girls are not drinking, the men who are there to SEE them ARE drinking!

I have high hopes and would almost bet money that Key Largo will indeed take up the slack and the same girls will go there as went to the Del Rey UNLESS they have been previously banned from KL.

My only worry is not that the girls will go away but that Key Largo will continue to BLAST that horrible music in the entrance room to the point of making your ears bleed, and those horrible bands will continue to play live. If that is the case, honestly, I may retire from mongering in Gringo Gulch and stick to the SL, Zona and etc.

That would be disappointing but do-able. The SL will be picking up a LOT of customers I think if the KL is the new place for the girls, because I'm sure a lot of older gringos like me can't take that super loud music. Earlier this year when I was in the KL it gave me a f'in headache within 5 minutes! I will be asking them to turn it down but doubt they'll care about my request.

Yes I could wear ear plugs but that would just make it all the harder to talk to the girls, now, wouldn't it?

Anyway, I'll be there next week and will report back. I will ask around to all the girls and bartenders and door men and hotel clerks and etc to see what I hear.

I really find it hard to believe that the Del Rey would permanently close their doors to the working girls! I just can't see that being economically viable. More like economic suicide!

C5.Well, before you began going to the Del Rey, when I began coming here to Costa Rica, the Key Largo was THE place, the ONLY Place (aside from massage parlors and strip clubs) to pick up working girls! It was just like the Del Rey back then, in that there were tons of girls and it was busy and they didn't play super loud annoying music, and it was GREAT!

So there is hope. If only they'll manage it different, allow people to talk instead of blasting music, it could be just like the DR like it used to be years ago.

You are right about one thing: The DR will never be a family hotel. At least not for long. They might try but if they do they're stupid.

Keep it the same, just remodel it; maybe put some carpet in the halls and sound proofing in the ceilings and walls etc.

I'm optimistic that it will work out fine, either soon, or later. If they try to change it they will fail and it will somehow return to what it was.

Shit this is bad news even for rumors. I always stay there and love the convenience. If they alter the game we will have to adjust. Was trying to stay there this Christmas / new years. But we shall see now.

All you boots on the ground please keep us updated with the latest.Was at the HDR Friday night, my 1st weekend night instead of the normal mid-week that I drop by. More than 3 x as many women as I've seen before, and many of them quite beautiful. Many were quite a bit younger than I'd seen on my normal midweek visits (early 20's or late teens) as well. One of the two that I enjoyed in a duo about 2 months ago walked by, stopped, and said "Hey, didn't I fuck you a while ago?" I laughed and told her she was part of a 2 on 1 visit. She did attempt to get me to be an instant customer again but I said I was still looking around. Don't get me wrong, she hot and all but there were just so many women there.

Anyway, I politely said no thanks to several advances before seeing an alluring, in shape, attractive lady in her 30's or so (I don't think I can push down into the teens or 20's. Just not me) so I sat down to chat. We had a great talk for at least 40-45 minutes (all in Spanish BTW even though she could speak some English) and she finally was simply all over me at the bar. We made the payment plans and went around the corner to one of the really cheap places (like $7 for a room) and went in. This is when somehow she was abducted by aliens and replaced by a monster, LOL.

1st this she did was drop a duece in the toilet and somehow forgot to flush. Big yuck. Then let out an amazing burp (I would have been proud if around my buddies) and peeled off her jeans (kind gross #2). As I was leaning down to start kissing her tits and removing her bra she says "Money now. " I quite nicely say that I'm happy to pay at the end, and even maybe more than that what we agreed on if it is a great time. It's almost like she grew horns, and started spitting out nasty "you pay me now! Stuff, so much that I just backed up and repeated (quite nicely I might add) that I've always paid at the end. And to be honest, the personality switch was such a downer that I kind of hoped that she would still demand to be paid immediately. I said no, and she started getting dressed, so I said that it was nice meeting her and walked out. I'm actually glad that I didn't fork out $75 plus the chica fee at the HDR to have such a weird turn of events occur in the room there. So I win there! Never saw her again.

Question to the forum: Am I wrong for assuming payment at the end? It's all I've ever done there.

Gents,

Was in HDR on Tuesday of last week and had no issues with either the numbers or looks with the working girls in attendance. Beautiful women outnumbered the mongers even though there were some women that were either on the heavier side or not as attractive as I desired. Had a fabulous time with a slim 28 year old that went for well over an hour. She was talkative, funny, and a complete hottie in the room. There are few things better than seeing a genuine smile and feeling genuine multiple orgasms from the woman I'm nailing, and it was awesome. Her humor culminated in saying at the end when she is covered in sweat and nearly breathless "Wow, you were so good that next time I might do you for free". Of course I don't believe her, but it certainly made us both laugh.

Chris.Nice to see a positive post, in place of all the whining & cry babies here that do nothing but complaining

If you don't pay in advance she runs the risk of you banging her and then not paying her or shorting her. I say do not pay in advance unless you know the girl well enough to risk it.

Just got back from an amazing 2-weekend trip to Costa Rica. Stayed at the Sportsmen's Lodge. Great food, nice rooms! Most of the girls I saw were from the bar at Sportsmen's and I was never disappointed. Went to HDR Sunday night when things were a little slow at SL. It's true, there are more girls there, and things are alive and well at HDR. Also tried out one of the Pensions, and I ended up finding the hottest girl of the whole trip for only 12,000 colones for half hour, plus tip. This was at Pension Exotica at Calle 11 and Avenida 14. I played golf at 2 different golf courses-- Valle del Sol, and Cariari. Stayed out in the countryside during the week, and it was beautiful. Wanted to report on my trip, as all the advice I got on this board beforehand was very helpful. I look forward to going back soon!

" I quite nicely say that I'm happy to pay at the end, and even maybe more than that what we agreed on if it is a great time. It's almost like she grew horns, and started spitting out nasty "you pay me now! Stuff, so much that I just backed up and repeated (quite nicely I might add) that I've always paid at the end. And to be honest, the personality switch was such a downer that I kind of hoped that she would still demand to be paid immediately. I said no, and she started getting dressed, so I said that it was nice meeting her and walked out. I'm actually glad that I didn't fork out $75 plus the chica fee at the HDR to have such a weird turn of events occur in the room there. So I win there! Never saw her again.

Question to the forum: Am I wrong for assuming payment at the end? It's all I've ever done there.You were absolutely right not to pay upfront and you did exactly the right thing.

I've been mongering at DR / KL for 25+ years and only recently was I ever even asked to pay up front. Letting my little head do the thinking with this gorgeous little piece of a- I agreed. Well after that she started in with "don't do this"don't do that" kind of crapola and to make a long story short (I think I posted it here earlier in the year), I did what I had to do then told her how she was really asking for trouble acting like that and some day she'd get into trouble with some guy who wasn't as nice as me. I didn't want any hassle so I let her go but did report her to the desk at the Morazan and hopefully she's persona non grata there now. But who knows? If you want to find out who she is look up my post around Feb or March of last year.

Even a super experienced monger can get too drunk and let his little head do the thinking! LOL.

But it will never happen again! As soon as girl asks for money up front I'll be saying, "Okay, see ya. Wouldn't want to be ya!

Okay, some background: been coming to SJ for over 25 years. Began to come when Key Largo was THE place before the Del Rey became the place. As to the Sportsmans Lodge I have been there numerous times, never found more than one girl who I was actually interested in doing but I much prefer the gringo gulch so I didn't even go to SL this time around and usually only go to SL to eat once in a blue moon but really even their food isn't that good IMHO. To me the whole Sl scene reeks of amateur mongers. No offense to any of you who like it, I'm sure there must be a few mongers who do (but it's not for me. I'm just not a fan of SL, to me the Del Rey is the Big Show.

I'm sure most of you want to know what the status of the DR is.

It's open, it's booming, and I found no real evidence. Not even testimonial. That it is going to close its doe 's to ho' s.

I asked numerous people like the desk folks at the Morazan, and various girls and only one girl seemed to think there was any truth to it but her info was very sketchy. She said one of the 3 owners of the DR was sick and that was why they were closing. I don't know if that's even true, that there are 3 owners or that one is sick but that was her supposedly inside info. Anyway it seems to be shakey logic that just because one is sick that they'd close a gold mine down and turn it into a family hotel that will fail for sure in that area! Just makes no sense to me at all! So I don't buy the idea that the DR will close to the monger business at all.

Anyway, the DR was really great. I went on a Thur and Fri night and both nights were very good in terms of lots of selection and a Good selection!

Last time I was there was in Feb 2017 and that was very good! But this time was even better in terms of selection. I don't know what happened or if it was just the luck of the night, but I saw much fewer fat chicks and ugly chicks this time! Last time there were the most fat chicks and ugly chicks I'd ever seen but it didn't bother me because there were also plenty of attractive ones. But this time lots of attractive ones and much fewer unattractive ones.

But the first night was kind of a fail for me but so it goes. In the end it wasn't the worst time I've had. Just wasn't what I wanted nor expected in terms of my choice.

Met a girl right off the bat who was very personable and that's important to me. We hit it off with conversation (in espanol) and she had a pleasant if not great face and what looked like a very nice thin and fit body but she was not showing off her stomach or anything. That should have been my clue to be wary. But I liked her anyway so decided to take the chance after talking to her for almost an hour and only buying her a couple drinks.

I negotiated her to 40 mil, probably coulda gotten her for less, and we went back to my room and she jumped in the shower and came out while I waited in bed. I had already showered just an hour or so before and this was my first of the night.

Well she came out of the bathroom and.

UGH!

Saggy belly, kinda floppy tits, and a huge effing scar on her belly! NOT a pretty sight!

Needless to say I was very disappointed. She WAS thin! But obviously had lost a lot of weight from having had a child via Cesarian in the past. I have heard that surgeons in Costa Rica often leave ugly scars and sure enough here was an example!

Well we did some mota and she blew me and hey I closed my eyes and felt what was going on and she was very good at her job at least! And the mota helped me get into the sex and forget about her looks.

So then she got on top of me and I just layed back and closed my eyes and she was such a little spinner that I was able to grab her around the waist and move her how I wanted her to move, and I had a really great finish that way.

So although I would never choose her again and would not recommend her, the sex itself was not half bad. The only negative aside from her body was that she told me she'd kiss but she was reluctant to do it so I let it go. But I do hate it when they say they'll kiss then don't. But on the other hand I don't like to make everything a "you must do this, you have to do that" kind of negotiation and I prefer to just see what happens and make the best of it. If you do want something for SURE then you really do need to get them to commit to it and hope they don't lie, but I usually just ask for it or not ask and just try it, and if they say no, so be it.

So anyway then I went back the Del Rey and just wanted to watch the girls and have a few more drinks before bed.

As usual I was approached by numerous girls and I politely told them I wasn't interested but if I saw one I liked I told her to check me tomorrow.

Then I went and stood along the wall in the back behind the bar because the place was full and there were no good seats, and I saw two very cute girls. One blond and one brown haired girl. Both working a guy at the bar, one on each side. He seemed super shy or something and I was watching and laughing. They saw me smiling / laughing and soon he left and they invited me to take his place. 3 somes are my thing so I had to go for it but right away I told them I wasn't looking for company tonight but maybe tomorrow.

Well they kept working me anyway and they were both very cute and had nice bodies and nice faces and were really good at seducing me, touching me, telling me what they wanted to do to me. I kind of played around with them, laughing and joking and we had a good time and they kept asking me to go with them but honestly I didn't want to spend the money, I wanted to wait for the next night so finally after half hour or so I told them that if they meet me tomorrow between 9 and 10 pm it'll be a sure thing! They said they'd be there and got up and started working some other guy. I really thought they'd be there because some of the girls had said it had been slow lately and they'd had trouble getting clients. If it had been slow it must have been Sunday through Wed. Because Thur and Fri. Were both very good while I was there.

I went back to my room with only that one girl for the night. Usually I go two times but am on a budget these days.

Next night I went back around 8:45 and began watching for my threesome girls and meanwhile after only a few minutes, as luck would have it 2 other girls walked in and came over to me and started working me and they were apparently into going with a guy together. They weren't lesbians but wanted to do a 3 some anyway.

I told them I was waiting for these other 2 but if the other 2 didn't show I'd go with them. They were also both very cute, maybe even better bodies but not as cute faces IMHO. Only slightly less cute then the 2 from the previous night though.

So I bought them a drink or two and we talked and they were touching me and being seductive at the bar and they were with me close to an hour when I decided two birds in hand were better than two in the Bush, so I negotiated for 40 mil each (about $75 each) and we went back to my room at the Morazan.

The one girl. A blonde. Seemed very amateur and my guess was the other one was teaching her the ropes and that's why they wanted to go together. The newbie was super cute and BOTH had great bodies! The other one, a brunette. Who let me take a few pics. Was not as cute but did have a nice thin body.

Well the brunette started blowing me then came up and let me suck her tits a while and she was getting into that. All of a sudden the cute young blonde just slipped my unit right in and she was wet and willing and started riding me cowgirl style. That was very hot to have her just start riding me like that. BUT the one thing was that her amateurism showed because she was obviously just trying to get herself off with no regard for me. I finally had to tell her to slow down and be a little less rambunctious. LOL. Honestly I like it slow at least at first and she was riding me so hard I thought she might break it. But that said, it was still very hot to have her so into it and wet and all.

But the other one picked up on my not being in rhythm with the blonde so she kinda took control, and mounted me and the other one took her place with her tits in my face.

Well the brunette really knew her job and really did a fine job of effing me but in the end I told her I wanted to be blown some more so she did that to completion and I was a very happy client. The blonde had really great perky tits and I really enjoyed looking at and playing with her while the one rode me just right.

I gave them both a nice tip, they were both happy and I got the brunette's number though ID much rather do the blonde again IF she would learn to put the customer first and go a little slower at least at first. We'll see if I ever see them again.

So I went back to the bar just to hang out and drink some more and man! It was maybe 11 pm and there were several super hot girls = better than those 2! - who I really wanted but I was on a budget so had to say no, BUT I got their phone numbers. One was model material, just gorgeous and young and I'd never seen any of them before. So if all else fails I have their numbers if it's slow next time I go into San Jose.

So that was that. All in all I had a very good time, and I will affirm that the Del Rey is alive and well and I for one can NOT believe there is any truth to the rumors they will close it down to professional ladies of the night and their admirers.

They ARE probably going to renovate, that I believe. And maybe for a short time during renovation they will move the party over to Key Largo. See my review of Key Largo and my review of Zona Blue in separate posts.

Key Largo sucks. Has sucked for the past few years and it's so bad now I can't believe they can even keep it open. Must be a money laundering type situation.

The only reason I can imagine they keep it open otherwise, is if they do plan to move the girls over there for awhile while the Del Rey renovates. I am not even sure they are both owned by the same owner (s) but think maybe they are.

I hate the super loud music at the back entrance from the parking lot. It gives me a headache and I talked to several other mongers who agree. After about 1 min. My head begins to hurt from it.

The live bands also suck! I mean they are just the worst, and it's a shame because a few years ago the bands were pretty good and I passed a few nights dancing there and having a very good time.

But now no one goes in there (there were maybe 10 or 15 girls and about the same # of guys. And that was at midnight when the place should be hopping.

Both nights I walked through a couple times, every time it was dead, and every time they were blaring that annoyingly loud music.

My theory is that the mongers hate that music and that's why they don't go in there and thus the girls also don't go in because even If they like the loud music there are few mongers in there to pick them up.

I'm done going in there except for a quick walk through now and again and If they move the girls over there I honestly won't be able to stand being in there more than long enough to grab someone and take her somewhere else to talk, maybe outside in the parking lot, because that noise in there gives me a headache every time.

I hope you guys will join me in complaining to the management via the bartenders or whatever, about the annoying too-loud music!

11-23-17, 03:32
Zona II. I used to LOVE that place back in the days of Pamela and her lezbo fave of the day. Long time ago.

Since then it has just gone increasingly downhill in terms of talent, and the girls seem uninterested for the most part and most are not even very attractive. AND there are often very few to choose from as well.

I've now gone in there once every year or two under several owners and it's never gotten good since years ago. I'm almost to the point of thinking it's not even worth it to walk in. I had hope with the recently-new owner but these owners and / or managers just don't seem to know how to hire the right girls and get them to perform. There was a time when the girls in there really seemed to like their jobs or at least were very good at pretending. In the case of Pamela, man! There was no doubt she enjoyed her 3 somes! But I had others in there back then that were great, too!

The last 3 times I've gone in it was bad, with a lousy selection of girls, girls who seem to be there like a 9-5 job (or 2-5 as the case may be).

So okay I walked in around 6 pm on Thur and there were literally only TWO girls in the entire bar. One was talking to a guy and not very attractive IMHO, and the other was sitting 2 seats away from me. She tried to get my attention but honestly I just wasn't interested in her looks so I just ignored her and was waiting to see if someone else showed up.

After 20 min or so I asked the bartender if there were any other girls and she said no just these 2. I said "well what about tomorrow (Fri)? What are the hours for girls?" She said the girls tend to come in around 2 and leave around 5 or 6 pm.

I remember back in the day there were like maybe 10 girls and they even had a shift change or two with new talent throughout the day.

Now the last time I went in there, in Feb or so I did find about 5 girls on hand BUT most were not very good looking, only a couple seemed truly interested in working, and the one I might have been interested in sat over at the wall playing with her phone and wouldn't even look my way, so after a beer I left.

I may not even ever go back in there. Seems useless now.

Things have sure changed. 7-10 years ago I loved going in there and always had a great time there!

By the way the last time I did get a girl in there was maybe 3 years ago and she was lousy in bed, totally mechanical.

II bad.

Okay, the Morazan has always been my favorite hotel because it's cheap, right in the heart of the gulch, and the people have always been nice. And let's not forget our favorite: Ricky Ricardo, the World's Greatest Bell Boy! LOL.

So okay I was told the new owners took it over about 8 months ago and have renovated. New tv's, new curtains and a few other things here and there. "That's nice" I thought.

I called earlier in the week to make my reservation and the girl who answered the phone said there were plenty of rooms for Thur and Fri and I didn't need one. I thought that seemed odd because I've often seen it full on Fri's in the past so I said "Well let me make a reservation anyway. ".

She insisted I didn't need one so I said okay and g'bye and hung up the phone.

On 2nd thought I decided to go ahead and make one anyway, via expedia. Good thing I did because the place WAS FULL and I might not have gotten a room had I not made my reservation via Expedia. Strike one. Some idiot desk clerk who was apparently too lazy to make a reservation for me!

So I showed up around noon on Thur and check in technically isn't until 3 pm but they usually accommodate me and get me in by 1 or so. I had asked for an interior room because they're quieter and they said they'd try so he said to come back in an hour or so.

I did and they checked me in to a room on the 4th floor, NOT an interior room but I didn't complain, I just wanted to lay down for a while, I was tired from the long trip in to San Jose.

Well as soon as Ricky walked out, I noticed the room stunk from sewage. I went down to the desk and the guy said "Oh. Okay, yeah sometimes it does. But you'll have to wait a while for another room. Here, go up and check this one and he gave me a key and I went up but the new room was still dirty but at least did not stink.

The maid was there and looked at me like what are you doing, didn't you just check into the other room?" I told her it stunk and she went in and said it didn't. I said "Well then there's something wrong with your nose because it definitely does smell and I showed her it was coming from the toilet but the toilet was clean, it was the sewer. She said no and was obviously pissed because I didn't want to take the room.

I said "Well the guy downstairs said yes it does sometimes smell and no I don't want to smell sewer. " I was actually very nice to her but she was starting to make me mad insisting it didn't smell when it obviously did.

In fact soon her manager came up and checked and she confirmed that it smelled and said they'd get me the other room soon.

Long story short it took about 45 min for the maid to get my new room clean because instead of jumping ahead down the line to my room she just went down the hall in order while I sat by the elevator so tired I could barely sit up! WTF?! All she had to do was clean my new room first, but noooooo!

So: yes they renovated the rooms to some degree but.

-the faucet still dripped.

-the lamp had loose wiring to the point it made me think it might catch on fire, and.

-the door key-card didn't work right.

I complained about the key because I didn't want to come up with my girls and have trouble getting into my room at night when there's no staff around to fix it. They said they'd send someone up but never did. Surprise surprise.

I also.

-didn't get a floor towel, and.

-there was no hot water the next morning when I wanted to shower.

Okay so the next day I asked for a floor towel and she gave me one but when I came back I noticed.

-there was no hand towel this time.

I usually get the little chubby maid and she's great but this one really sucked at her job.

I gave her a good tip the first day anyway because I wanted an extra bath towel in case I brought 2 girls back (which I did). She said she'd give me one but I had to wait for some reason. Well.

-she never did bring it so I was short a towel that night.

Meanwhile when I brought back my 2 girls the guy at the desk told me I'd have to pay $25 extra for the extra girl. I said "What? I've been coming here 25 years and never been charged for an extra girl!" New owner, new policy he says. I said I'd pay it for now but would talk to him later.

After the girls left (see my report on that below) I asked him if they could waive the $25 extra charge because I never have been charged that and after all since the room is only $50 a night.

-how do they figure $25 for only one extra girl for one hour, and hell I couldn't even get an extra towel so where is the justification for more money for an extra girl? Where is the added expense?

He said I could take it up with the manager tomorrow so I said I would do that.

On check out the girl at the desk had printed out the fine print policy which did state there was a $25 extra charge but what good is that written policy if they don't tell you that or even show you the paper when you check in?

I said that I didn't mind paying a reasonable extra fee but $25 extra is a gouge and I don't like being gouged. I'm sure someone here will say I'm being too uptight and complaining too much but I disagree. I think it's just unreasonable to charge $25 for one extra guest for one dammed hour! And not even an extra towel.

So while in spite of the lack of towels, the refusal to fix my door key, the lousy lamp, no good place to charge my phone, no hot water in the morning. And now no fruit with breakfast either (now THAT's cutting corners! Fruit is cheap in Costa Rica! I would still stay at the Morazan but for the $25 extra charge. 3 somes are my thing and so that basically increases my room rent 50%! I think $10 extra would be fair.

So. I will now probably go to a different hotel even if it's the same or more money just out of not wanting to be gouged that way.

Things are certainly changing in the Gulch!

She was very good at sex but no kissing. Great body though and her "friend" who was the other half of the team was super cute though not as good at sex, at least wasn't my style. But I'd give this one an 8 at sex and would do her again though I seldom go back to the same girl twice so probably won't do her again unless I were to have trouble finding a new one that tickled my fancy so to speak.

The so called live band in Key Largo is by far the worst band I've ever seen or heard in my life! I've been all over south and central America, they are the worse band ever!

I'm a fairly young guy and I leave key largo with a pounding headache!! Who the fuck hired these clowns!! What's funny is if you notice, they are playing and singing there heart's out, yet no one is in the fucking room listening to them! LOL!

The monger's hate them. Yes I know they are only doing their job, but they fucking suck ass!

The worst band ever!

Okay, I'm planning to visit SJ and it is my first time, really need advice the place to stay. It seems like there are two best options.

HDR is $104 (including tax) + $12 charge for a girl. Hotel Taormina $71 (including tax + free breakfast) + $ for taxi back to hotel from HDR (no charge for chica?

I'm staying Thursdays thru Monday. I don't think I will bring chicas every night to my room.

The Morazan is a shit-hole; always has been. The room you waited for may have been used as a short-time room until you booked it; that's how they roll!I've been in here for 5 days now and it isn't bad. Now, some rooms are indeed short term rooms, but they don't want to put you in those, unless you just want a room for short term. The location is excellent to explore for women, or walk around the city. The internet has been 59 Mbps download and 5 Mbps upload which is quite fine with me. They also have good Air conditioning If you pay in person it is $59 a night. But I've booked it on Orbitz with the 15% coupon codes and my final price is only $46 a night, plus I get some Orbitz credit also. Also, no chica fee if the girl stays less than 4 hours. My only complaint is the music from Key Largo can be loud for sure. But, I actually don't go to sleep til about when they turn off the music anyways. If you like to sleep early, then it probably isn't the place for you. Perhaps a room on the other side of the hotel will be more quiet. My friend negociated a $60 a night price at the Amistad. Normal price was $89 a night. They have very fast internet. I tested the Internet at Amistad at 103 Mbps download and 6 Mbps upload. But my friends room had no desk or table.

So while in spite of the lack of towels, the refusal to fix my door key, the lousy lamp, no good place to charge my phone, no hot water in the morning. And now no fruit with breakfast either (now THAT's cutting corners! Fruit is cheap in Costa Rica! I would still stay at the Morazan but for the $25 extra charge. 3 somes are my thing and so that basically increases my room rent 50%! I think $10 extra would be fair.

So. I will now probably go to a different hotel even if it's the same or more money just out of not wanting to be gouged that way.

Things are certainly changing in the Gulch!It was explained to me a few days ago that 1 girl is free per day, or maybe if you give it a few hours you can bring another girl in for free. But if you bring in 2 girls at once they will charge $25 for the 2nd girl. The guy I see most of the time seems cool and easy to talk to. You might talk to him before hand, and slip him 10 bucks or something. Maybe you go to the restaurant on the 2nd floor for a little bit, then go to your room. Out of about 8 showers so far it was fine except one time it took about 5 minutes to get hot water. My complaints are only about the noise from Key Largo and my room has no refrigerator. My room has a desk, but some don't. I was upgraded for free to a room with a balcony, but it had no desk. So, I chose a room with a desk. Book it on Orbitz. If you are a member at Orbitz, lately I get the room for $46 a night final price, just use the 15% coupon codes they always have. Also if you use an Orbitz credit card and use a phone or tablet to book you will get 10% in Orbucks. True price will be about $42 a night. That's the current price though. I'm sure it fluctuates.

Last time I heard that the ownership of del Ray changed and the new owner, lady, wants to make it a family place. No more girls. Can someone confirm this with me?I've been going there once or twice a day for 5 days now. It all seems normal to me. A couple days ago one of the rooms had a fire though. A chica told me one of the air conditioning units caught on fire. She told me she happened to be in the next room. LOL She said a lot of people panicked. Anyways, the bar was open the same night when I went. A different girl told me about the fire and said she went home for the rest of the day. I will go to the DR tonight and ask the front desk about this rumor of closing.

I asked a guy at the front desk about if they will close down. He strongly said that is not true. He didn't seem to want to talk about it anymore than that. I have some more to write about the other places, but I just got here to Medellin today and I need to take a nap.

I went to Pension Monica yesterday. I want to say that the fee was $30 for a half hour. The girl that opened the door was tall with a nice figure. I would say she was her early 20's. I paid the fee to the owner behind the cage and he said pick one. There were about 4 women there so I picked the one who opened the door. Again, she was in her early 20's and had a nice rack and a full back. Got to the room and she started with an amateurish HJ. I had to tell her to put some lube on it. The she said "blow job com condom" and I said yes. The BJ was actually very good. A lot of deep throating. She stopped to ask me if I liked it. The FS was pretty good. At the end I tipped her another 20,000 Colones and she could not stop thanking me which means I over tipped her. Before I leave I will come back, all of the other women were attractive and sexy.

I went to Casa Portuguese yesterday. It is on Calle 6 between Ave 3 and 5 I believe. There are three "massage" place in a row on this street and I poked my head in each one. One first glance I thought I had wasted my time. There were at least 50 women in the three places but none that I would find appealing. Also, these places were full of geriatric gringos pumped up on Viagra and Geritole. There was a bar underneath one of the Pensions so I had a couple of beers there. I also went to a bar called the Viking bar around the corner and had a few beers there to. As I loosened up I decided to go back to Casa Portuguese because there was one woman there with a very large chest. I went back and she was not there I met a smaller slightly chunky woman said let's go in Spanish so I went. She gave a very good BJ and was very enthusiastic. I paid 7000 colones and tipped her 10,000 colones. She was very happy. Some details about the place. The room was dirty, the bed seemed dirty and the place itself was dirty. I would not repeat.

12-08-17, 18:52
So let me get this straight- it was $30 for half hour and you tipped her $35 because the covered BJ was the best you ever had? Wow.

I'd rather say nothing more because what I am about to say does not include nice words for this kind of behavior.

I last visited San Jose in 2012. It seems that very little has changed about the city. No construction or new buildings. The economy seems stable. This trip report is primarily for people who have never been to San Jose or haven't been there in a long time. Day 1, I went to my regular spots to see if everything was the same.

Little Havana. Went there Friday afternoon. Only 3 girls working and all were 5 or below. 2 chicas were sitting down and stared at the wall when I entered, while one acted like she wanted to earn pesos. 1 HR /$60 damage on site seems a little much these days for a 5 and below, but who cares. Her skills were a 9. I returned Saturday night to Little Havana at 8 pm. 2 chicas inside and both were 4's. I left for better options.

Sportsmen Lodge. What a shit show. Full of Ticas with bad breath and high prices. Aggressive chicks looking for 1 HR /100 rate. Not worth it. I tried the breakfast there. It was decent with rice and eggs, toast and pineapple. The one good thing about the S. Lodge is they don't charge for guest. The fucking hotel rooms are a shit show too. Similar to a Motel 8 in the USA Cost $65/ per night + tax. Walls are thin and you can here noise outside. However, you can save on the cost of the guest fee.

Hotel del Rey. What the fuck has happen to the quality of women in the Del Rey? Most mongers come to Costa Rica to bang blanca Colombian mujeres. For the first time the majority of women I saw in the Del Rey were Ticas. Almost 100% of the women have kids with bad see-section scars or stretch marks. I banged 2 of the best Ticas I could find in the Del Rey and they both had mediocre to bad service. None of them can take dick bigger than 5' repeatedly. They say you have un hora sexo, but they can only really fuck for 20 minutes and try to spend the rest of the time sucking dick thru a condom. Then they have the nerve to tell you it cost $20 more to suck dick without a condom. Ironically, I spent the majority of my time banging Dominican women, which I find them to be more athletic in the bedroom. But I did not fly to Costa Rica to fuck Dominicanas LOL. Every chica in the Del Rey approached me with the $100 usd for una hora and I talked each one down to $60. Usd.

Since I was not impressed with my usual spots: the Del Rey, Little Havana and Sportsmen Lodge I decided to go unconventional and try the non-pro game.

I downloaded Tinder and began to swipe right every chica. Surprisingly I had 10 matches of non-pros and 1 pro. The 1 pro was from Venezuela with a decent body. I rate her a 8. She asked for 100 usd and I offered 60 usd for 1 HR. She refused and said 80 for 1 HR. She wouldn't move from 80, so I swept left. Next, I came across a Colombian who lives 10 km outside the city and has a baby with a local rich Tico. She agreed to meet if I download the app Snapchat, to see if my pic was real on tinder. My pic wasn't real but she still couldn't tell the difference LOL. She drove the car her ex bought her to my hotel. Once, I told her where I staying he was in an uproar, as she was a non-pro and offended I was staying at a quasi-brothel. I slowly calmed her down and told her I didn't know. It's my first time in San Jose (a lie). She said OK and entered. 2 hours of hot passion and she didn't even ask for gas money. I had 3 other tinder dates that same day. Most of the women lived far outside the city and did not think highly of San Jose. They complained about the Hotel Del Rey is an embarrassment to the city. Gringos only come here to fuck pros etc. If I had more time I could have banged completely free on tinder instead of the p4 p game. But, I did take these chicas out to eat or starbucks, so some money was spent. The P4P game has gone to the shits in San Jose. All the top quality women must be gone for the holidays because it's a complete shit show with 5's and 6's asking for 100 usd.

Apparently women aged 18 to 29 are fond of using snapchat to communicate. Most chicks from tinder used that show some tits and ass before they visited. One even sent me a pic of her pussy saying welcome to snapchat baby. LOL.

I say all this to say. If you are looking for higher quality women that are non-pros who just want to go on a date and fuck. It's possible in San Jose, but you have to be there for longer than 3 days to reap the benefits. I also decided to find non-pros at McDonalds near the plaza. Surprisingly, I was successfully with one negrita walking up to get an ice cream cone. I spoke in broken Spanish enough to get the number and she was interested. We went out the next day. She was also turned off that I was staying in a quasi-brothel. She said it's embarrassing for her to go there. Shit! I didn't plan for this from non-pros. I began to tell her how it was a mistake and she took the bait. 2 hours of fucking no cash involved. You got to love being a gringo.

Part 3 coming soon: I will visit the casas.

For perspective, I have been coming to CR since 1999 and have made probably 11 trips, the last being in 2011.

Here I am again in 2017 for affordable dental work & I was soon reminded why I stopped coming here back in 2011 for fun: it's all the fat chicks. So much fat! (newspaper article in 2016 says 67% of Costa Ricans are overweight. https://thecostaricanews.com/more-than-3-million-costa-ricans-are-overweight-or-obese/).

I got in on a Saturday (Travel tip from someone who has come here a lot: take the Bus from the airport. Costs maybe $1.00 and you can either push the button if it drives by your stop downtown, or take it to the city center and catch an Uber, or taxi. You will of course need coins "monedas" because the bus fare is so low, so I went to trade in $100 at the money exchange in the airport. Be sure to ask the person to be sure to give you monedas para el autobus). So, on a Saturday, I checked into the apartamento I found on AirBnB, then went hunting. (Another travel tip: apartamentos give you a key and don't care who you bring back, although best to get an "entire place" rental, not just a room, if using AirBnB and also confirm with host that no problem if I bring a novia back with me, as some places on AirBnB specifically say they do not allow the ladies in).

Monica's. I had never been but read great reviews here. It was like 4-5 pm on a Saturday. There were two chicas available, both stout, but I found the 18 yr old Emma to have a cute face. The place was fine for 14 k colones ($24) but even Emma had a belly and arm fat.

Del Rey. Ok, so later that night, after some food at Tin Jo (great Asian place on same street as Idem why Relax) I decided to go to ground zero, the Blue Marlin bar. In the past, say '99 through '09, that place was always a sure bet. There would be dozens if not a hundred ladies there. And even then you could find several to pick from. The hotties outnumbered the fatties. Times have certainly changed. It may have been early, only 7-8 pm, but was I disappointed. I sat through several beers trying to figure out which was the "least fat", and there were only like 15-20 ladies in the whole place. I was about to leave when I met a 23 yr old tica Angie. Her legs looked good in her jeans and her shirt was tight and seemed to show no belly fat. 40 k and we were off (note: there was a snotty bartender in that place, at the main bar, she was a real *****. She made sure to act like she really hated giving out beers or something. Must be bc tips are included in the price. Also, one of the DelRey security guard guys actually said I should tip the security guards after I asked him when Key Largo was going to open up). Again, very surprised that Key Largo wasn't even open yet at like 7 pm on a Saturday.

Anyways, that Angie chick from DelRey? Yep, she was fat, too. Soon as the clothes came off, I realized she had some kind of magical jeans on which disguised her fat. And she must've been wearing a tight elastic shirt, too, bc she had a beer belly!

Sunday. New Fantasy & the Havana place (I knew it as Zona Blue long time ago) and it used to be good, but there were 2 ladies on that day. Yes, both thick, one was very thick. So I walked up to New Fantasy. Back then all the ladies were in that one room and you could see them through the window. Now they have it set up like a club with loud music. There were 4 or 5 ladies available at the time I walked in. Each was very fat! I decided to go with the least fat, she called herself Estephanie. Very nice, friendly. She tried to upsell me on things like kissing, or no condom, but I just needed to busta nut. It wasn't easy busting a nut to a chica that weighed more than me and had nasty c-section scar looking at me, but I somehow managed.

What is it with New Fantasy now? Aside from the ladies I saw all being overweight, and a couple even obese, the place has gone downhill big time: the sheets and towels were nasty (torn and war-stained) and only cold water in the shower. And that dank carpeting all over the place is likely full of odd stuff. Not pleasing to walk on with bare feet.

Anyways, I'll report back after this week is out, and let you know if I just ran into some bad luck. But one thing seems certain: the ladies here in CR are getting really fat.

It's been quite a while since I visited SJO and it seems to have deteriorated into a haven for overpriced CBJs from overweight ticas. Higher prices aside is Jaco any better?

Doing my first trip in 2004 I ended up pulling two strippers out of a club (I can't remember which). One was an experienced tigress but the other was brand new and I was her first salida. I ended up sending the other away after a couple hours and had one of the best GFEs of my life.

The downside was the way overpriced drinks I had to keep buying while making my selection. But if I do make it back to SJO next month I think that's the way I'll go because it sounds like the mainstays have gone way down hill.

Yes, chica friendly. $20. You can walk through the casino and across the street to the Del Rey. Quick and easy. Dollar exchange is reasonable. If you don't want to spend $20 and just want to get off, there's a hotel across the street from the DR that charges $7 for two hours that is very clean also.

Sunday. New Fantasy & the Havana place (I knew it as Zona Blue long time ago)Zona II is now called Bar & Pension 506. I was there a couple weeks ago and banged a nice Nica, my friend banged a nice Nica there also. I went there 3 times though and we only saw those girls once. The two Nicas we took were really good looking and pretty good. There was a Tica there on my last visit there, she was really good looking, but I was just observing too long and someone took her. I happened to sit next to the owner on my last trip there. His name is Mark and he said he used to be a manager or assistant manager there or something when it was Zona II. He admits it was much better a long time ago. He also owns other businesses and says most of the people he knew moved to Medellin. After talking to him, he seems like he is going to start catering to the local Tico men, not gringos. He said the new name is better for the local men. I guess the name 'Pension' lets the locals know what's up. He did say that in the future he might start calling it Zona II again. He has some nice rooms above that are quite nice. He is renovating them though. One of them was just finished. The first room he showed me actually had a sex dungeon with sex sling or whatever you call that, and whips, and sex toys and stuff. I forgot the prices he told me. But he said if you take a girl from the bar you don't have to pay a room fee anymore which means the girls are about half price. I think we paid $40 to fuck there girls there. I should report sooner, I forget more than I remember these days. Anyways, if you pay $40 to take the girl, $20 went to the bar for a 'room rental'. If you stay at his apartment you would just pay the girl $20. He talked about the laws and legalities and all that stuff. A bonus tip. The owner told me that for every drink you buy, you get to roll 2 dice. And if your number is 7, you will get a free drink or a free room fee. He said the bar girls always forget though. You have to ask them. I didn't get my 7 though. Attached are a couple pictures of the former Zona II. The Zona II sign is still there though. Also they have a punch card there. I think it was you take a girl 4 times, the 5th time is free. The card is not labeled with the clubs name though. It has a fake coffee shop name. I guess if you rent his room upstairs, and you used the punch card. You could bang 5 times for $80. I have to say I always went kind of late and there was not a good choice. I suggest trying earlier than I went, try like 2-4 PM or something.

Also has anyone tried "a sex dungeon with sex sling or whatever you call that, and whips, and sex toys and stuff?" If so how much do you need to pay to the girl and if this requires much convincing -- I understand everything depends on the girl, but I wondered if anyone had a real experience in this place or a similar (are there better places: this this the first time I see it mentioned and my fantasy takes the better of me), so how much should I expect overall cost and experience to be?

Hotel Little Havana should be slightly more South on Google Maps. Zona II has a new name of Bar & Pension 506 for the local men, and I think it will probably keep the name Zona II for the gringos or old timers. If you took a taxi you would probably be better off calling it Zona II.

I have pounded that pavement-Zona II, now Pension 506 is on the corner of Ave 9 and Calle 3 A. Since physical addresses and numbers mean jack in Costa Rica, it doesn't matter what the 'official' address is -Ave 9 or Calle 3 A, but it is hard to miss on the corner! And Little Havana is adjacent to it on 3 A as well.

Dollar exchange is reasonable. If you don't want to spend $20 and just want to get off, there's a hotel across the street from the DR that charges $7 for two hours that is very clean also.

Holiday Inn. Not chica friendly.Thank you. Finally, someone with good information! I will make sure to book an extra person on my reservation.

Hey all,

Heading to SJO on Thursday and will spend 2 days in San Jose then 2 days in Jaco. I've been mongering for years but taking a friend who didn't have a greencard and wasn't able to leave the states for a decade.

Hit up the HDR in the past. A bit annoyingly mechanical but will try again.

Accommodations. Anyone know if the Sheraton is chica friendly?

Also will be going to Santa Teresa / Malpais. Any scene there?

Thanks all.

Thank you. Finally, someone with good information! I will make sure to book an extra person on my reservation.When you check in, tell them you want a room on the side of the hotel facing the parking lot, not the Parque Morazon. There's a ton of traffic on the park side at all hours and the noise will keep you up unless you can sleep through anything.

Also, late at night if walking back to the Sleep Inn through the Parque Morazon, beware of the "chica bananas. " If you're returning from the Sportsmen's late, it's best to take a cab.

Zona II is now called Bar & Pension 506. I was there a couple weeks ago and banged a nice Nica, my friend banged a nice Nica there also. I went there 3 times though and we only saw those girls once. The two Nicas we took were really good looking and pretty good. There was a Tica there on my last visit there, she was really good looking, but I was just observing too long and someone took her. I happened to sit next to the owner on my last trip there. His name is Mark and he said he used to be a manager or assistant manager there or something when it was Zona II. He admits it was much better a long time ago. He also owns other businesses and says most of the people he knew moved to Medellin. After talking to him, he seems like he is going to start catering to the local Tico men, not gringos. He said the new name is better for the local men. I guess the name 'Pension' lets the locals know what's up. He did say that in the future he might start calling it Zona II again. He has some nice rooms above that are quite nice. He is renovating them though. One of them was just finished. The first room he showed me actually had a sex dungeon with sex sling or whatever you call that, and whips, and sex toys and stuff. I forgot the prices he told me. But he said if you take a girl from the bar you don't have to pay a room fee anymore which means the girls are about half price. I think we paid $40 to fuck there girls there..I felt the same, I have been there few times, but the choices were not good, I even tried with the Colombian bar tender, asked her for dinner, she speaks more English, replied me with "her husband won't allow it", got her number though, but never called back.

However it is still one of the good place to go.

Got some (very unexpected) time off of work and thought about redeeming some airline miles for a short-ish trip to San Jose. Was there in March 2016 and had a great time. Planning to arrive mid-day on New Year's Day (Monday) and leave mid-day on Thursday.

Question though: Is this a slow time of year for mongering, given the proximity to the holiday? Might just save my time and money if there are a lot fewer girls around than normal. I know this is an issue around Easter.

Thanks!

Club Pantera Rosa, there were about 10-15 girls there and 3 girls that were pretty hot. I picked a tight body girl with blonde hair and tattoos named Lucy from Nicaragua. She would not go for the half hour and made a lot of promises at a really high rate. I took the bait and went to the room with her. Services was barely ok so I left and spoke to management. They give me a different girl for a half hour and I had a much better time. I finished and left the club quickly, luckily I parked close because as I was driving away a few guys come out of the club looking for me and pointed as I drove off.

Cost was about 6 colón to get in and gets you 2 drinks. Dances were also 6 colón or 12 if you get a lady drink also. Saw a question in forum about bringing dates. I saw a few couples there and even a lesbian couple. 1 girl mentioned 1/2 hour for 37 colón. The skinny younger girls did not show up till after 12 and were scooped up fast and stayed busy.

Thanks.Based on my experience over the past few years, the quality is always better in Jaco. And if the Del Rey is closed now, that will only accelerate the trend.
