Was in San Jose last week and every night in Taormina.

The price for most of girls was 100 usd, some very cute asked for 200 usd I declined, you can really find decent girls in Taormina.

One told me that in Jaco all girls want 200 usd.

If you have a room in Taormina you must pay 20 usd to bring girls in your room.

You can come in Taormina at 7 pm no need to come later I think, no need to drink, (of course except if you want) just talk with the girl and move with her.

Hope this information will help you.The word is that if you agree to pay an extra $10 a night for your room at the Taormina, then you don't have to pay extra every time you bring a girl up. This is important for all CR mongers to remember. On the other hand, I understand that there are no chica fees at the Cocal in Jaco whatsoever. But then again, the nightly room rates there are higher too than at the Taormina. A starting asking price from the girls of $200 is disheartening, and I'm not inclined to pay that. I understand that it is possible to negotiate, and that many girls will accept less. We shall see!

She is meeting me at the hotel when I arrive. I'll give her one night to see how things go. I don't have a contract with her for the week. I can say no at any time.

I have experience with multiple women in Brazil but this is the first time in Costa Rica. We have been chatting on Whatsapp for at least a month. She seems legit.

I'll give an update afterward.Sounds like a good plan. Hope things work out!

At Cocal, its 200, and settle on 150.

It was my first time at Tao. The ladies there exuded desperation and were not my cup of tea. But what WAS notable was the quality of the rooms. Very nice for what you pay. The bed was fantastic -- definitely made with their clientele in mind. With the casino and town nearby, I would definitely stay there again.

Also beware, there seems to be a new pact at Cocal that the girls have "agreed to" amongst themselves. Take their clothes off, lie on the bed, and ask for the advance. It happened with every girl I met there. It was really annoying and a mood killer. Then they later ask you for a 50 tip.

Fellas, before you start the walk to the room, be sure to specify and agree that the donation is made AFTER.

After the experience on that trip, I won't be going back. SJ just isn't what it was. It all just seemed played out. Going to check out new frontiers.

I wish this was required reading for all dudes going to SJ and Jaco. But reality is many go without ever researching online and pay insane amounts because they are on a bachelor party and think any attractive woman willing is worth whatever they ask. Sad but true. The dudes that visit once will inflate costs. Do not give in, discounts present themselves with patience.

I was introduced by a forum member to a lady who helps in reservations, transportation including girls for long stay. I have booked through her Taormina and first chica is free. I have booked through her at cocal also. She quotes competetive prices. And service is top notch. It is with her permission I am posting here. She wants more business. If anyone wants her contact info I can share with you her contact info by PM.

My schedule to go there in May. After my trip I can post a report in detail and it will be your choice to use her or not.

I'm trying to figure this one out what's the purpose of paying a hundred bucks for something that's should be cheaper in a 3rd world nation. Most of the locals I meet pay no more than $25 for a chick in Latin America. You can get the same kinda chick in Seattle WA, LA, Oakland or Houston Texas for the same price.

Who knows.The HDR started going downhill when they let Ticos into the Blue Marlin bar; same thing is happening here. What used to be a sports bar that was predominantly visiting Gringos, it's now predominantly Ticos. One of them may be the boyfriend of one of the many girls, who knows. I met one girl in the Taormina who had a 9 mm tattoo on the thigh with the word "Gangsta" above it. Yes, there are gang elements that go in the Taormina. Another, older woman I met in the bar, her sone was killed in a gang shootout. Last, there are drugs sold every night on the street outside the Taormina. I know of American's who go out and make buys.

Loss of Gringo revenue will put that place out of business.

As long as visiting Gringos keep paying foolish prices, nothing will change. And $200 for a girl at Cocal to just stare at the ceiling, that's even more foolish!

But. 10-12 years ago this would happen on occasion at the Del Rey. Anywhere you have prostitution you're going to have drugs. Anyplace you have drugs you're going to have thugs.

These stories come up at least once or twice a year in Jaco, anywhere in the DR, Medellin.

But Taoromina has good security inside the hotel, bar, casino, poker room. It's impossible for them to control every pissed off thug with a gun and a motorcycle that thinks they're in an episode of Narcos.

When I go on a cruise or tropical vacation that is the first thing I buy. It is the ambience of what we call exotic locations. You spend more to have a good time. Yes you can have a delicious steak cooked and eat at home but the restaurant steak tastes better for quadruple the price.

When you are on vacation you let loose with money. Yes staying home is cheaper. For one thing In America prostitution is supposedly illegal leave few counties in Nevada. In Costa Rica it is legal for legal age girls. I have had best of times in Costa Rica when DelRay was the go to place. Hundreds of very pretty girls. Even though the going rate at that time was below $100 I am guilty of paying more for the GFE company I like.

Yes, there are local places in shantytowns all over the world where locals get sex cheap. We can afford to splurge and above all we are on vacation.

There are multiple murders every day in San Jose right now, many with this style. The reason there are drugs and drug dealers there is that there are customers there. Not just the prostitutes. So your prediction that it will never happen again. BS my friend. There is no way to predict that shit. At least they don't have that part of town under a 10 oclock curfew like they have had in parts of the city to try to stop the nightly murder rampage. A couple of weeks ago there were 5 in one night in Hatillo and Alajeulita.

I don't know where you live but where I live, there are no $25 working girls. Now, in Costa Rica, for $25, you can have sex with an attractive girl in the casas.

Who knows.The girl who arranges my reservations at the Taormina tells me the dude who was gunned down was stealing money from a gang of Colombians. He used the money to provide night interest loans for working girls, cab drivers, etc and wasn't paying the money back. The gang encountered the dead dude up nears Sportsman's and he took off running. The gang caught up with him on the street outside the Taormina. It was a happenstance; not related to the hotel itself.

But that isn't going to prevent me or anyone else here from visiting or staying at the Taoromina. Although I never witnessed any shootings at the Del Rey, etc dating back to about 2010 when I first came to CR. I'm sure there were plenty. And, I certainly remember walking out of the Del Rey at the cab stand entrance and there being a wide variety of Pharmaceuticals products offered by the local vendors at that time.

Although maybe I just ignore it now. I've never been offered anything at the Taoromina aside from a Cialis tablet. Ha. Maybe others have different experiences but I don't look for anything beyond a good poker hand, a cocktail and a great blow job!

Been since before covid I have been to SJO. Coming back and obviously disappointed HDR is no more. Will be pitching my tent at Taormina next week for 5 days. Will hit the casino and have fun.

When does the poker room start at Taormina? Blackjack 24 hours or?

I booked 2 guests so I think I get the first "guest" free. Then start paying fees for visitors. Thansk.

You know I'll hate to say this but this is coming from an Latino man price and service goes in the opposite direction. As price increase the quality of the service goes down from what I've seen the chicas in Latin America charge gringo prices $100-200 for a rushed visit. And charge the locals on the average $25 but sometimes low as $10. Then again the cartel sets the price and it determined by what you pay in America. In Seattle WA you can pay up to $300 for a rushed full service visit but the average price is $200. I can't see myself paying that type of money for shitty service nor for a one time short visit.


Guys started paying $100 back when the HDR was at the top of its game. Since the Taormina has taken over, the quality has gone down, but the price keeps going up, for shit service and asking for tips.

Well right about now most chicks won't take $25 off the streets and I'm talking about drug addicts. Traditional whatever drug free people charge is what drug addicts want divided by 2. So in the city I live in the dope heads want roughly $100. I stated $25 is what the local women charge there men for sex and these girls are not on drugs. Then again the cartel sets the price on what the girls charges to tourists and etc.

I see where you're coming from there's a stigma associated with prostitution and unfortunately people need to push back against this nonsense! In Florida plenty of politicians and police officers from out of state get busted all the time in prostitution stings. Since it happens so much most go to the Pacific Northwest for action. I really don't know how a man dominated society got to crave in with fear to women's rights groups whom are also Lesbians in. From what I'm seeing they're trying to eradicate prostitution all around the world and to be honest they just need to go suck a dick and choke on some cum a little.

I booked 2 guests so I think I get the first "guest" free. Then start paying fees for visitors. Thansk.I was there 3 days, Thursday thru Sunday morning the weekend after Super Bowl. The place was very booked although the restaurant was surprisingly empty in the evenings except for the free breakfast in the morning which was very good IMHO. Much better than the buffet that the SL was throwing at you.

I played poker from 8 pm till about 2 am a couple of nights. It is my understanding the game gets going around 6 ish. The language at the table was Spanish though some of the dealers did speak English and the table was polite to the non or minimal Spanish speaking players (me). Game was good and I won a little bit of money. There were 2 tables running every night and Friday they had 3 tables going. It is basically a 1-2 game although many pots were in the hundreds of dollars (they are playing with Colonies chips BTW). I did inquire about tournaments but they did not have any. There were jackpots for high hands etc. When I left at 2 am, there were still games running. I assume the game will run as long as there are players playing. Maybe somebody who plays more can weigh in if the game closes at a specific time? It was a very well run and friendly game when I played. Several chicas wondered in and out. One sat down at the table bought in for $200 and proceeded to get her clocked cleaned in about 30 minutes and left in a bit of huff. It was actually comical to watch. She was a well endowed bleach blonde who rolled in with two other girls. I'm sure she made it back in a couple of hours upstairs.

The "free quest" is based on the rate you paid. There is a mark up in room rates to get you the free daily guest. After the free one, the fee is $12.

It is crazy that no one notices that. They should fire that sheriff instead of applaud his fundamental incompetence. And no not all prostitutes have pimps in the western hemisphere. That comes from the same people that say all crime starts with marijuana, etc. They are paid state sanctioned criminals trying to justify their stupidity.

Might be true in a ghetto in the US, but to say "always linked to organized crime" is silly. It is the excuse given for draconian laws against prostitution, but when it is made to not be a crime all of a sudden most criminal elements have no interest in it.

When I was there in February and checked out, there was a $12 charge for every girl I brought to the room during my stay. And, every time you brought a girl to the room, you had to bring her to the front desk. She showed her cedula and filled out the book and then I would have to sign below her name agreeing to the charge.

It is actually not a terrible system. I guess if there is a problem in your room at least they know who really was with you. Although it can be a bit cumbersome.

Does anyone have experience with towns outside the major places in CR? I have to do a last minute work trip to Canas, Guanacaste. It's a small town so not sure my prospects are good. I may try to book a night in SJ but not sure if I'll be able to. I'll of course post a report of what I find, I travel to random places and post reports.

In fact, if you opt for the higher room rate, it explicitly says on your reservation that the first one is free. It's not that you're going to get a free girl multiple times to the room. Only yhe first one is free.

You got me there, I only been to Mexico, Columbia but only partaken in activities in Mexico which I no longer do. I travel there for work every other month but that still doesn't mean that people never discussed the situation with me there and I literally mean the natives or the folks who come other countries in Latin America that visited there before.

This is my first trip to CR.Generally better using colones. They have to get the dollars converted otherwise, plus they will try to play you more with dollar quotes. I think. However all that being said they will almost always quote in dollars, as in 100,150, etc. So know your exchange rates and you can say. But I only have colones will 45 mil work for you. For example. There is no advantage to them to actually get dollars, unless you give them an advantage. There is no black market where they get more for US dollars for example. They have to trot off to the bank to do the best, or they use the dollars to buy something in a gringo hotel or club. But they know that the exchange process is costing them something.

You got me there, I only been to Mexico, Columbia but only partaken in activities in Mexico which I no longer do. I travel there for work every other month but that still doesn't mean that people never discussed the situation with me there and I literally mean the natives or the folks who come other countries in Latin America that visited there before.So you are here and you don't visit prostitutes. Why is that? There is a thing called cognitive dissonance and confirmation bias. You are the one that said all prostitutes in the western hemisphere have a pimp. That is easy to refute in absolute terms.

After RTFF I've decided to just stay in San Jose at the Taormina, I'll post a report on my experience. Will be there tonight. Question, do the girls at Tao want Colones or do they just take dollars? This is my first trip to CR.Was in Taormina 3 weeks ago you can pay in USD or Colones, I paid 50 000 colones for 1 hour, my friend paid in Usd 100 usd maximum for 1 hour, no problem.

Don't pay more.

Well I made it to the Taormina last night and here is my adventures so far. Thanks Frenchie and Zeos for the tips on currency. I bring cash with me on these trips. I stopped by the currency exchange at the San Jose airport and their rate was terrible I would have lost 20% value so I declined.

Got here at around 10 pm Saturday night and got checked in, then went to explore the hotel. There was some sketchy things happening out front and the police were involved, so I stayed inside. Note that there is no smoking indoors here which is a bummer since I like to have a cigar and watch the ladies till I pick one. Casino is relatively small but has all the things. I exchanged a litte USD for Colones in the casino, not a favorable rate but I said eff it and went ahead. There were quite a few girls all over the Tao and they ranged from a 0 to about a 7. My preference is the girl-next-door type, thin with small naturals. There were a few of those here that were prospects. I ended up chatting with a girl named V, she asked for 150 and I switched to Colones and offered 50 K, she countered with 70 K and I said fine. Dong the math later I think I would have been better off sticking with dollars since I got nailed on the exchange and paid full price in Colones. Took her to the room and had a good experience, she had a smoking body and did all that I asked. Her enthusiasm level was a medium though so probably wouldn't repeat with her, but I got her number.

Sunday morning I went on an adventure that was against good judgement but worked out okay. I had played around on Tinder before coming and chatted with a 24 year old that looked good in pictures. Turned out she was pretty far away, almost an hour drive so I initially told her no. But I didn't have anything to do this morning so I drove over and we had brunch. Luckily she was a total GND type and I really wanted to do her. She then proceeded to come up with an elaborate plan to take a bus to meet me later after arranging for her friend to watch her baby and asked me to give her money first. I declined and said we go find a room now and I will give you money, so that's what we did. It was a good time, but several hours invested in what ended up being a quick session in an hourly hotel. 25 for the hotel and gave her 100.

Now back at Tao after a good nap this afternoon and deciding if I want to go downstairs and pick from tonight's menu offerings.

What can I say, senor, it's a beautiful country. We're paying for the background.

On a side note, can imagine what you'd get for $25 in the States.And get caught doing it in TX is a felony!

Don't pay more.Given that you'll get a lower exchange rate for $100 in the casino, or any ATM; paying 50,000 C is a cheaper spend than paying $100 American. I would think the girls would rather be pain in colones rather than take a reduced amount in the exchange to their currency.

I always spend two nights in San Jose before heading to my favorite chica Airbnb in Jaco. (PM me for info) Of course Taormina and Sportsmans are the go tos. How about Del rey and CAstillo? Any updates?

Ill be there last 2 weeks of June. Mostly in Jaco. If anyone wants a stuttering wingman, ready for howard stern, PM me.

Castillo is liked by many for the all inclusive option for meals and drinks. It is a lot smaller than the Taormina however and will only have a few girls at most at any time. Typically at most around half a dozen.

And get caught doing it in TX is a felony!Is it really a felony in Texas? The reason I ask is some people don't draw a distinction between a felony and a misdemeanor.

Is it really a felony in Texas? The reason I ask is some people don't draw a distinction between a felony and a misdemeanor.First offense is considered a state jail felony. Lowest level of felonies in Texas. Punishable up to $10,000 in fines and between 180 days and 2 years in jail. Also carries the typical collateral penalties of a felony, such as loss of the right to vote, loss of the right to own a handgun, etc.

I like the indecent proposal tactic police use with ugly people. Hello homeless drug addict, I will give you a million dollars to sleep with your wife with no teeth. Did I hear a yes? Put your hands behind your back. That one is hilarious. It is even funnier when they incite violence that way and act like they had no hand in it. Anyone with half a brain has to shake their head at that.

It's closed for good.Name is changed to Luxhigh and it is trying to be a general tourist hotel. They were not allowing and hooker types in the door unless they were with a hotel guest, but those policies may or may not last. Whether the hotel lasts or not is an open question, but there has not been anything going on like in the past when it was Del Rey.

I had planned to stop by for a drink just for old time's sake. I know I wouldn't be able to keep the smile off my face. Man, all the fun I had fucking all those pretty Colombianas and Ticas with a Venezolana or a Salvadorena or some other type thrown in here and there. What a time it was! What a place! Sigh!

I know I wouldn't be able to keep the smile off my face.The new hotel, LuxHigh, is open. I walked through there yesterday afternoon. The Marlin bar is still there, the lobby bar is still there, the casino is gone. There were no girls in there however, one girl I sessioned with said that she was in the old Delrey / the new LuxHigh Saturday night and there were about 10 girls in there. The lobby bar was open and there were four guy sitting at the bar having a drink. So you will be able to reminisce when you get down here.

Do us a favor get into a serious dispute with them and report back in full detail my friend.They call the police, not a pimp. In all my time in Costa Rica and Colombia I have never met anyone that had an interaction with a pimp. But many that have had disagreements with girls and ended up talking to the police. And they often side with the girl. Often that is the correct side, but sometimes not.

Do us a favor get into a serious dispute with them and report back in full detail my friend.If I got in a serious dispute with your wife, girlfriend, mother, daughter or a complete stranger that is female, you would come to their aid if you are a man. Does that make you a pimp? I didn't understand your question until the other guy deciphered it for me.

I know a good number of prostitutes in the USA have pimps. Whatever efforts they put in place to prevent that must be creating it. I don't partake in that because it stinks like cow manure.

The western hemisphere is a big place. I think that is half the globe. I'm a bit paranoid. If you were actually male you would know random males come to the aid of random females.

I have not been to BB but SL is only vaguely similar to 'Casa Blanca' in MDE. Both are houses somewhat awkwardly cut up into rooms. In both places, the rooms vary in quality and selection is pretty important. This is reflected in the price much more at SL than at Casa Blanca, where last I heard, all rooms were the same price and the better rooms were first come, first serve. A couple of the rooms at the mansion are shared bathroom situations but none at SL.

The mansion serves breakfast, but has no restaurant, an important difference. SL serves food all day, decent food in fact, has a pool table, a crappy gym, a reading room, etc. The mansion has a bar with ever changing policies that is operated as a separate business.

Also, SL is located in a hood with other nearby venues and the mansion is a bit isolated. So, a plus factor for the SL is that chicas circulate more as opposed to showing up for the day and sitting around bored waiting for something to happen.

Hotel Taormina has a somewhat similar setup to SL, plus a casino if that appeals, and lots of reports say it's a bit better than SL right now. I observe that at SL, I can be gone for two or three years and when I come back, a lot of the same hookers are there. That can be good, or bad.Sorry for my ignorance but could you help me out and let me know what SL, Casa Blanca are? I am planning a trip to Medellin, it's not my first trip, however the last time a went was 10 years ago and I am outdated, I am looking for places to stay and your comments are very helpful.
