For all of you regulars of the Blue Marlin Bar there was a big shake up last weekend. A new management team came in and turned it upside down. Blonde Jessica (had been there 14+ years & was the bar manager) got side ways with the new manager and quit.

From there the new management proceeded to fire 90% of the regular bartender girls from Fernanda on down, they are all gone now (report from my buddy who just returned yesterday). Seems there was way to much money missing from the cash registers after their shifts & had been going on for awhile.

Now there is no more drinking behind the bar, no doing shots with the customers, its going to be boring as hell, they were half the fun of being there. Of course it will probably decrease my bar bill by $750.00 for a 3 night stay.

Wow, too bad for Jessica. She made sitting at the bar during the day a pleasurable experience. I can imagine there was a lot of money going out the door though, just the nature of the beast. Times are tight down there now, for everyone. I never felt like I was being ripped off, except a few incidents when a couple bartenders had to be reminded that I had change coming. If they ripoff the hotel that's one thing, ripping me off is another.........

But I do demand they do bring my change back to me. One time a stupid but hot one gave me one hot and one cold Imperial. I called her over explained. She just handed over the cold beer and said nothing. I pulled the tip back and put it in my pocket. One time another one forgot to take the cap off the beer. Just bad service with good looking Ladies. But in return I did meet a real nice one over in Key Largo.

Great serive and dam friendly.

All depends on your negotiation skills. Most will say 2-hours, some offer lower rates for an hour. TLN can be as low as the girl is willing to go. Factors that weigh in: if she's been drinking and enjoys your company, lives outside the city and doesn't want to leave until morning, needs a roof over head, etc.
I've paid $60 and the girl spent the night. There is no hard and fast rule.


Thanks for the info. Just one more question: is one hour also one shot or as many as you can manage? Is BBBJ the standard?

That's one reason it pays to stay at the HDR. They give you a card when you check in, just have to show that to run a tab. No cash to be lost or forgotten on the bar.......I'll be heading down in three weeks, will report back on the new talent behind the bar (and on my side of the bar:)

Can you remember how much you drank and ate on a week trip? Also a nice little fee added to your account everytime you take a Lady up. Another thing about staying in the belly of the beast. Most Ladies will be out the door as some as you nut. They know more money is down stairs.

I always stay at the Sportsman or now La Amistad a $1 ride in a cab ride to the HDR. Durung the day a nice 10 min walk. Close to the Massage places.

Fantasy,

Fernanda emailed my back last night also, you are correct, she said she is still there. You know how 3rd hand information usually is. I will be there for the Thanksgiving weekend. I will let everyone know who is gone and who is still there.

Also received and email from Viviana, no info, just her digets, I will call her this weekend.

Just a reminder to all who may not be aware, you can go to the Hotel Del Rey web site and tune into the Blue Marlin Bar's webcam. Of course you can only see the girls who are working behind the bar and some times are better than others for clarity, but it brings back memories for those who have been there before. Or those like me who'll be down there in two weeks........

There are also a couple short video clips on You Tube, just browse under "Blue Marlin Bar, Costa Rica"

Just an FYI

Opinions are what make the world go round. I have been going to San Jose for 10 years and I have never stayed anywhere else but the Hotel Del Rey. I love it, I have the ease of being able to be neck deep in pussy in less than 60 seconds. When I want to fuck I want to fuck, I don’t want to wait, get a cab go to another hotel, check her in, have her ask me for cab fare home etc, etc..

I love the ability of being able to charge anything/everything to my room, less cash to have to deal with. I have never had any problems with my tab being padded, the bartenders/room service/restaurant let you keep it right in front of you, you sign it and close it out each time your done.

A girl is going to run out the door no matter what hotel you are staying at, they are there to make money, besides I have never ever paid for sex, I pay them to leave. The party is over after I cum, why would I want them to hang around? I have nothing in common with them, ¾’s of them can’t hold a conversation and barely speak English. Plus after am done I am looking for my next piece of ass, & do not want this bimbo to hanging around.

Just my 2 cents

Things must be really quiet in SJ, lol. Never seen this long of a span without an update. Will be staying at the HDR in a week and a half. Plan on stopping in BM, KL, New York Bar, Sportman's Lodge and Habanos to get a feel for the action at those places. Sorry, not a massage parlor type of guy.

you can find everything about anything on the internet:
taken from an article dated 9/3/2009:

when the new fantasy opened it doors in 2004 it was a rarity in the costa rica sex scenes offering a selection of girls asian-style behind smoked glass.

legal reasons require the business to operates as a pension of motel, however it is the mother of all full service massage parlours. the facilities are clean and simple, and include a romanesque steam room and either massage table or bed in the rooms, depending on which you prefer.

the upshot is that it’s still a great place to get your pipes cleaned and and then soak in the steam room for $40. if half and half with a nineteen year old girl is your speed then new fantasy is your place. it’s also one of the most upscale places in barrio amon open on sunday and until 9pm every night of the week.

many of the girls offer “extras” like a blow job sans condom for a little extra tip, but as usual your mileage can vary. it’s certainly a place where you can negotiate any special fetishes for a price.

the best time to hit new fantasy is just before lunch when the chicas are fresh or after 5pm when the selection is at its height for the afternoon commute. of course the san jose classic is to roll out of bed around 10am, eat breakfast, and then stop by new fantasy noonish on the way to a liquid lunch. that’s the life of pura vida.

private me if you need the link, but it's searchable on google.

Very close to Hotel Little Havana/Zona Blue. Assuming you have been to HLH, you would take a right upon leaving, another immediate right when you quickly hit Calle 9, head up the hill a block or two toward the Sportsmens Lodge, and its on the left. There is a pink light above the entrance if I remember correctly, and usually a security guy or two hanging out in front. Been in a few times but never saw anything to my liking. Nevertheless, a few of my friends have had great luck there from time to time and its probably worth checking out. I'd be happy to check it out with you as we will both be in San Jose at the same time and were thinking of hooking up for a drink at the BM on Thanksgiving afternoon.

The New Fantasy is a massage parlor and is located roughly between the old Zona Blue MP now called Hotel Little Havana and the Don Carlos Hotel....on - 9th Ave. & 7th Street (approx) - in Barrio Amon close to the Zoo in San Jose, Costa Rica.

It is about 6-7 blocks from the Morazon or Del Rey Hotels. And would be about a $ 1.50 taxi ride away from those hotels. You can safely walk it during daylight hours but would be advised to take a taxi after dark.

If you walked straight North from the Morazon Hotel through Morazon Park for about 6 blocks you would run into it...or be very close anyway.

Here is a link to info about it:


http://www.sextourcostarica.com/new-fantasy-spa/

I was there for a session about two weeks ago, and the price is right around $ 44.00 USD......up a few bucks from the last couple of years. My first trip there in 2004 it was only $ 32.00....but things do go up in price.

New Fantasy is open until about 9 PM....so plan accordingly as it is not a late night place for P4P. I have found that many of the girls working here are of the semi-pro type...usually young mothers who do not want to work or be seen at other venues like the Hotel Del Rey. This might be an excellent place to meet an attractive young gal, with whom you could build a casual relationship for a girlfriend experience, as many of them would surely come to your hotel for sessions after hours.

On my last trip two weeks ago, I met a nice 21 year old gal here, and she came by my hotel a couple of times later, for a lesser price than $ 44.00....as she was able to keep all that money for herself then instead of having to give half of it back to the MP. I paid only $ 30.00 plus a few dollars ( $ 2.00 - 3.00) for taxi fare for the girl when she came to my hotel......and the session in my room was more relaxed much less hurried.

When you enter, the girls will be sitting in a small room where they wait for customers, and will usually stand up so you can bet a better look at them.....which is usually the case at almost all of the MP's there.

Everything is very professional and on the up and up here.....I have never had any problems with losing anything - theft ,or disagreements with the girls, or any other problems here.

Any taxi driver will know where this place is and will take you there without any cuts or tips....they will simply drop you off at the entrance.

You might also enjoy going to the Oasis Massage Parlor which will require a taxi ride or you go on the bus.....take the Sabana Cementario Bus .....this bus also goes right by the side door of the Del Rey Hotel...but ususlly it will will not stop to pick up passengers there.....instead catch it around the corner & across the street from the Asia Hotel or from almost anywhere along 2nd Ave. - which is two blocks from the Del Rey.

You will need to know where to get off the bus for this trip though when the bus crosses the the Paso Colon Avenue - very near the Toyota Dealership.
Then two blocks up to KFC, Kentucky Fried Chicken - turn left then 3 blocks and you will find the Osasis MP directly across the street from the Machu Pichu Restaurant.
There are no markings on the Oasis MP and it is only noted by the security guard standing out front..again they will close around 6 or 7 PM...so it too is not a late night place.

Take a taxi and tell them you want to go to the Machu Pichu Restaurant....the Peruvian one....as there are two with this same name is San Jose. ( See above ).

Pura Vida, Steve

just completed another pretty good trip to san jose.

my trip was for eight (8) full days so i will just touch on the best highlights of the trip and omit the average performances.

arrived 10/31 at3:45pm for the halloween festivities. flight only 2/3 full so customs was a breeze. grapped taxi $18.00, use to be $22.00 just a few months ago (july) when i was here last.

anyways get to my hotel dunn inn, but room is not ready yet. there is some remodeling taking place so the first night they placed me in a nice suite room #2 for the night, with living room area, jacuzzi and a bar. now that's how you make a guest feel welcome.

after unpacking i make my way to the del rey where i run into many of my female acquaintances to let them know that i am back in town. the del rey is also where i use the atm to get colones for food and drinks. i always pay us$ to the ladies, as my calculation is not that good after several vodka and cranberries.

i see many mujeres dressed in costumes and many of the fellas as well. mia the barmaid, two words smoking hot! perhaps the best azz in cr, but i hear it's not real. so sad!

anyways, head down to the sl for the halloween bash there where there was a large crowd pretty much everyone dressed in costumes getting ready for the contest. made my way to an empty seat at the new front bar and commenced to getting hammered. i spot a cute, thick nica i believe her name was mary, sorry i was too sf to really remember her name. anyways i will refer to her as mary in this episode. we begin chatting and i ordered her drinks. she had 4 vodka and cranberry which is what i was drinking. a few hours later (12:35am) we were back at the dunn inn.

mary, came out of the bathroom and joined me on the bed. we begin to kiss and caress as though we were boyfriend / girlfriend. mary had a nice natural rack which i began to attack, she loved having her breasts sucked and boy did i go to town. sucked on those milk juggs for nearly 20 minutes. i then made my way down to her belly and played around her honeypot. i could tell she was hot and ready to play ball. we started cg where she rode me for nearly 30 minutes non-stop. they way she was bouncing and grinding i knew she was working to get her orgasm, that's where getting her liquored up pays off. due to the alcohol i was not quite ready to end this sesssion yet. i flipped mary over and begin to give her the hammer. it was like i was banging my real girlfiend. i rode her for about 30 minutes when i could not hold back no longer. i roll over and basically collapsed only to find myself being shaken by mary letting me know she was going to get up and leave now. i guessed she fell alseep too. as she entered the bathroom, i glanced at the clock and it was now 5:30am. i went to the safe and pulled out a cien and grabbed about 6 mini-chocolates from the bag i brought down and placed them on the dresser for mary. she came out dressed and gave me a big kiss. i pointed to the money and candy and she was very happy and so i was i. feeling the effects of our night, i walked her to the door and let her out. shucks, i forgot to get her number. no luck finding her again at the sl. i may recall her saying something about the key largo bar. anyways, only one session with mary. damn it man!

my second best encounter came on day 2 as i went to the key largo bar after a great steak dinner at the del mar. it was slow as the band had not started playing just before 10:00pm. i ordered a vodka/cranberry and found a seat in the area just ouside the main bar where you can see everyone come in. as i sat looking around, i was approached by two lovely ticas (fanny and jessica). they begin to basically molest me right there in the kl. seemed to like grabbing and rubbing my dick. fanny asked if i wanted 2 girls, i told her i could not afford them both. i asked how much, they quoted $60 each. back at the dunn inn (no further explanation required here), the three of us was on the bed. before i could hardly place my glasses on the night stand, i had 4 lovely breasts in my face. man, i was trying to knock myself silly bouncing those nice natural tits all my face. a few minutes later one set was gone and i could feel my balls being licked and my dick being sucked. lots of slurping and spitting going on down there. next went jessica to join fanny, gicing me the 2 girl blow job as promised. this was freaking awesome. i grabbed the condom off the dresser as i did not want this experience to end like this. again, fanny goes first, rcg. she has a nice plump ass and i see it out of the corner of my eye bouncing up and down taking it balls deep. jessica is again working those tits in my face. fanny stops and says now it's my turn to fuck her. i love a woman who knows how to take charge. she gets on all 4's as it's time to walk the doggie. i commence to giving fanny what she asked for, a good home-style banging. jessica now says it's her turn. fanny pussy was so good i almost did not want to stop. but again, i want to get what i paid for. i switch codoms and begin to bang jessica missionary. fanny is rubbing my ass and ball sack as i enter and exit jessica's honeypot. fanny now lays on the bed and begain to finger herself right in front of me. not shortly after all 3 of us are moaning and i of course finish. i lay there between 2 naked bodies breathing heavily as the girls massage me down using the massage oil i brought with me. after they finish, shower and get dressed, i give them the $60.00, plus $20.00 tip and of course the 5 pieces of chocolate each. it's only about 1:00am, but i am done for the evening. fanny and jessica leave there number so that we could perhaps arrange another 3-some and off to sleep i go.

day 3, 4 and 5 are just average sessions with some of my regulars (elizabeth a nica, sandra a colombiana, valery a tica, and cinthia a tica. nothing or no one special to write home about. although, one of the girls cinthia a friend of arlyn's gives me arlyn's cell number after i session with her. i call aryn and make a date for day 6.

day 6, arlyn shows up at the dunn inn wearing a short black and white striped mini. the security guard and the gentlemen performing the construction were mesmerized. arlyn (wow). hey baby, how are you? doing good sweetie, but am about to be doing much better. up to the room we hug and kiss. arlyn tells me how much she missed me (my wallet) and i tell her the same bullshit. she goes in the bathroom and comes out in nothing but a very thin thong. i gave her the massage oil and let her do her thing. her massages are average at best, but i tell her she muy buena. arlyn's real talents i will get to exprience very soon. i roll over already standing at attention and she takes me in her mouth. arlyn loved to look into your eyes while she is swallowing your cock. she is very good at giving head. likes to spits, use right amount of hand and lciks the balls nicely. unless you tell her to stop, she just keeps on blowing you. i reach for the condom and she puts it on. she then says those 4 words we all love to hear. whatever you like baby!

i start her off in cg and let her ride me a bit. i love grabbing her ass and bouncing it up and down. i next flip arlyn over to missionary where i pound away. feeling the moment is nearing i switch to doggie so i can watch us in the mirror. arlyn sees me peeking in the mirros and tells me ay papi muy caliente. not albe to handle much more of this hot chica i finish and lay back on the bed. arlyn goes to get the wet towel removes the condom and cleans me off. she spoons with me for another 20 minutes as we just talk and relax. she asks me if i want more massage or anything else? wish i had it in me, but i do not and respond, no gracias sweetie, yo contento. i will see you tomorrow and make a date for 10am.

day 7 arlyn arrives at 9:56am. what a tica actually on time! anyways i tell the receptionist to let her up. a knock on the door and there's my favorita. wearing a halter top and white mini-skirt. i bet she stops traffic everywhere she goes. arlyn has nice long legs and an almost perfect azz. she tells me her grandfather was half black and that's where she gets her nice ass from. anyhow, her performance is the same as also, top notch. she asks what time i leave tomorrow and i tell her 5:40pm, she asks me if i want loving tomorrow, i tell her absolutamente. same bat time, same bat channel.

here's the most interesting session of this trip. interesting to me as it was the first time ever that i had to train a del rey girl how to do her job.

ventured down to del rey about 5:30pm and say this tall, light tan-brown tica named dianna who is just 20 years old she tells me. dianna looks like alyssa keys the r&b singer. she wearing a white mini-dress that's clinging to that juicy ass of hers. dianna does not speak very much english, but she is by far one of the hottest ladies in the del rey. she standing near the blue marlin bar stairs, looking a little nervous. i decided to go over and chat her up. my spanish is very limited so conversation is very challenging to say the least. i motion her to join me at the bar for a drink and she gets a corona. soon after we finish our drinks, i say vamos mi hotel. she answers si.

get to the dunn inn and go to the room. dianna sits on the bed, i turn on the tv music videos to entertain her, while i grab a quick shower. i hate smelling like cigarettes when doing my business. anyways, i exit the bathroom and dianna is still sitting on the bed as i had left her. she gets up and goes to the bathroom and comes out a few minutes later still fully dressed. i see now that she is not a professional yet and needs some tutoring and i am just one to help her out. she lays on the bed very timidly, i tell her tranquilo mi amor (relax my love). she smiles and says okay. i slowly begin to kiss her, making my way down her neck, shoulders and slowly down to her belly while she is still dressed. i can feel her start to relax some, but is still timid. i caress her body and slowly remove her dress. she has a lovely body, stretch mark free as she has no ninos. her breasts are small, but she has one hell of an ass and beautiful long sexy legs. i begin to kiss her again working my way down to her inner thighs, outer thighs and pelvis areas. i finally got her where i want her, completely relaxed, after 20 minutes of foreplay. i grab the condom and i am ready for action. i take it easy with her as though i am with a virgin. i do not enter her completely at first, just half-way to get her wet. i can now feel her legs tighten around me as i enter her all the way. her breathing deepens as i rock back and forth. i stop to see how she is responding and she is now rocking her hips in concert with mine. i begin to kiss her again as i continue to pound her a little harder and faster. we are now in rhythm and it feels as though we are truly making love. i now flip dianna over into the cg position, letting her ride me like there's no tomorrow. i also want to see that gorgeous face of hers. suddenly she begins to grind on me really hard. i gran her hips and follow her lead. i can now feel it's time for me to finsh, so i flip her over again, and begin thrusting real hard and fast until i blow. we are both panting, as i continue to lay there on top of her. she begins to caress my face and says tu eres caballero (you are a gentleman) or something like that. we lay on the bed for about 10 minutes watching music videos when she asks, puedes ir (can i go). i answer si. i let her up to go to the bano to shower and get dressed. i get the $80.00 as negotiated from the safe, 10 colones tip and 5 pieces of chocolates and place them on the table. dianna comes out i point to the money and candy and she asks, para mi. i tell her yes. i walk her to the door and give her a kiss and big hug. i then tell her proximo vez calmate (next time relax). she smiles and says si.

day 8 arlyn came by wearing a pink top and jean shorts, showing every inch of thoses long sexy legs. as she walked in there was 4 guys still having breakfast at the dunn inn, all of a sudden there was a moment of silence as arlyn walked to the reception desk. i escorted her to our love nest, where i saw bktuna on the internet, he could not help to grab a quick peek at arlyn as we walked up the stairs. sorry about that bktuna.

what can i say about her that i have not already said. another awesome session. to my surprise my little tica favorita brought me a card and a gift (some type of candle dish. guess she is putting my money to good use (smile).

i already made a reservation at the dunn inn for the thanksgiving day weekend, 26-29 november.

will be definitely looking foe mary, dianna to hopefully repeat.

Quality report. I will be at the Sportsmans Nov. 27 through Dec. 5 if you would like to meet up for some beer(s). Where can Arlyn be found?

I'll be down Thanksgiving weekend as well and am already planning on hooking up for a drink or two with LK and Bunda Man, and I'd be delighted to meet Iamsmooth as well, author of a truly great trip report. Yes, I've looked out for Arlyn at the BM during a couple of previous trips this year but have never had the good fortune of hooking up with her. Maybe LK, Bunda Man and me could have an arm wrestling contest, the winner rewarded with the right to bribe Iamsmooth for her contact info!

Perhaps a small but robust party is in order. The first round of drinks on me...

Nice report. You had me until the dreaded "cien" word. If I hear one girl say 'I got cien last week", I'm gonna track you down. Just kiddin, Bro. Will be in BM and KL tomorrow, finally!!!


Cien is a very good price-for Todo la noche. Its not what you pay, but what you get for what you pay. I much prefer to give the lady what she asks (say 80 or 100), but negotiate for a few hours, multiple pops, todo la noche, ect ect. When you think about it, giving a chica 80 bucks for an hour is a rip, but a cien for three or four hours is a pretty good deal....I agree 100%, never pay a cien for an hour, but giving her what she wants and getting what you want can turn it into a win win, and in truth, saves you money over the course of a trip (i.e. a ripping todo la noche means I am less likley to need to run for an MP in the morning)....plus, NOT spending the extra 20 bucks for a chica you really want means that you lose out on what YOU want, and perhaps save a total of 100 bucks over the course of a trip. Now, factor in airfare, hotel, food, chicas, what percentage of your trip is a cien?

Will be at the SL after T day with wingman, hope to see you cats around the bar. This is trip mabye 8 or 9 so for me over the course of many years, y es claro que hablo espanol.

I Saw photos of a chica identified as Arlyn on CRT. This chica had reddish hair and pale skin. Photo of her doggy style on a bed in bra and panties posted on 11/13 and spread eagle with transparent panties on 11/8. Post noted that she works days at HDR. Is this the same Arlyn in IAmSmooth's Halloween report? The poster of the photo and other CRTers also wrote favorable comments about her performance.

I wonder the same on that Arlyn. If so, she's getting some good press from our friends. For my tastes from the waist up she's just average. I think, however, I shall explore below the belly button should I be so fortunate.

Pretty sure this is the same Arlyn, although Iamsmooth would be the definitive source. BTW, myself and Iamsmooth are CRTers as well.

Hola! I am a newbie in the CR forum. Most of my mongering has been in DR but I am now looking for a change of scenery.

I was wondering if anyone could report on what the mongering atmosphere is like in SJO during January. Is it still live and kicking? Or is the place dead coming off the Holidays?

Also, can anyone update on which strip clubs are good right now (I'm only interested in the ones in where the strippers are available to bang either on site or for takeout)? I heard a few people say Pantera Rose, but is this still the case?

How much out of date is the CR, San Jose PDF guide? (see attatchment)

Any info would be much appreciate and I will reward the board with the pics I end up getting based on your help (see my Sosua and Puerto Plata reports and photos to see that I am a man of my word :)

Thanks in advance!

Hola Amigo,

Your attatched pdf file is fairly representitive of the 'going rates' in San Jose.

I suspect that the 'price list' is a little dated, and perhaps some of the prices have gone up slightly. The list is fairly comprehensive and there are several places on it that I have not yet visited - although I have been going regularly to San Jose for about 5-6 years....and have seen some changes in things over that time frame.

One change is that with the economy more or less depressed there are fewer mongers in San Jose now than say 1 - 1 1/2 years ago, so some of the prices have adjusted with less competition ......fewer guys....but basically the same amount of P4P gals working the venues.

I just got back from a 2 week trip to San Jose about 3 weeks ago, and the status quo is about the same as it has always been.

Ground zero for mongering in San Jose is still the Hotel Del Rey, but the Sportsmans Lodge is gain in popularity with both the guys and the gals.....it is fairly difficult to get a room there now as a walk-in.....reservations are advised. The Gringo owner Bill is doing some real good things there - business-wise to attract clientele.

There are several good hotels close in to the "Gulch"....the area around the Del Rey Hotel, and you should be able to find one with little trouble for your January trip. But do make some reservations to be on the safe side. All the major hotels have websites with online reservations.

My personal recomendation for a hotel would be: Sportsmans Lodge, or La Amastad Hotel, or the Castillo Hotel....all in Barrio Amon (very near the Zoo) within 6-8 blocks of the Gulch, and all very Chica friendly with no extra fees to bring your gals back to the hotel.

For my own personal tastes I do spend time at the Del Rey Hotel but mostly for meeting friends, window shopping the gals, and having an occasional drink.

For myself when it comes time to get laid I usually go to one of the massage parlors - Osasis, Veronicas, 747 or the like. I also like to do a little dancing and go right next door to the Del Rey at Key Largo for that.

I have eaten often also in Del Rey's restaurant (right next door) but although the food is top quality, it is still a little pricey for my tastes. Instead I have several small Chinese restaurants around where I like to eat to get the Chinese cooking and or some reasonably priced seafood.

Strip Clubs - I do not usually go to these, but ask around....and you will find a couple good ones that should prove to be good for you.
I have heard for years about Pantera Rosa, but as yet have not been there.
Also there is the Hollywood Club nearby, which looks OK, and the old standby D'Pulifeos (sp) Strip Club out near San Pedro Mall - where I have been.
Most of yout strip clubs will not get going until around 11 PM or later - so plan accordingly.

I sincerely hope you have a very good trip, and January is a pretty good time to be there, although do not plan on going during Christmas or over News Years, and you will no doubt be disappointed - because the gals will be with their families then and will not be out working as usual.

Try to hit San Jose anytime after Jan 2nd - which should be a very good time to be there. It will be the high season.....the non-rainy - dry season, and everything should be in full swing.

There are many good spots outside of San Jose also....do a little homework and you will no doubt find most of them - Jaco Beach, the mountain areas, Manual Antonio - Quepos for great beaches, and fishing is good almost everywhere there is saltwater - if you are into that scene.

Pura Vida, Steve

Just returned from a 4-day jaunt to SJO, stayed at HDR.

Not much has changed, though on this trip I encountered less Columbianas and more Chicas which was a definite change from my earlier visits this year. Not sure why that is though. I had heard that one of the owners had a beef with a Columbian and went on to ban them for a while just recently. Also, noted more darker complected girls than in years past. A lot of the girls dress it up now in tight/short dresses, which is a sight to behold. Also, there seems to be a better looking selection earlier in the day, before the stunners come out to play in the evening.

Good news for long-time Blue Marlin bartender, Jessica (blond hair, parrot tat on back of shoulder) admirers. She managed the bar up until a couple months ago. She's now working at a bar called Chubbs down the street from HDR, across from Parque Morazan. She works 11 am - 7 pm and the girls in HDR don't bring it up for fear of getting fired or banned. Chubbs if a great place to catch sports action, at least 10 big screen TVs throughout the place on sattelite and a decent menu too. Plus, if you want a break from the girl hounding, this is a nice refuge where you can actually watch a game.

One turn-off was that the bar girls in BM and KL are not shy about asking for shots. Not sure what the incentive is, but this is counter to an earlier note that the bar girls are no longer allowed to drink behind the bar. However, it may be because business is down and they've been told to get their sales up, or their asses out.

Used the ATM in the HDR (BofA debit card) and got a decent rate of CR $562 to the dollar.

SP321, long time no speak! No need to worry, sex in the Champagne Room is the norm in San Jose. Pantera Rosa (Pink Panther) is my favorite at the moment because of their prices and the quality of the dancers (See my post in this thread for more details on Pantera). I suppose Pantera is considered low end but the facilities are nice enough for my taste and there are a number of great girls to suit all tastes working there.

Another low end club is VIPS Taberna, Ave. 11, between Calles 1 and 3, which technically is a strip club but you probably will not see much dancing on the stage. I dropped by a few times around 7pm after finishing sessions at the nearby nearby massage joints (pensions) Muses and Krysis. There was not much of a selection but I have been told that the selection gets better as the night goes on. This place truely looked and felt low end from the few minutes I spent inside each visit. Beers were about $2 U.S. and a half hour of full service was about $20 U.S.

Two upper scale strip clubs are Club Monaco, Ave. 9, Calle 6 and D'Pelufo, Alejuela(near SJO). Monaco has been said to have some nice talent but a gringo tax has also been reported(locals pay 15,000 Colones for full service while gringos are quoted $50.00 U.S., about 28,000 Colones).

D'Pelufo has another location in San Pedro as well. I have heard great things about D'Pelufo and the chicas on their website look great. However, I am hearing widely contradicting accounts of the price for full service. I have been told as low as $20.00 U.S. and as high as $100.00 U.S for one hour. This place is considered high end by San Jose standards so my guess is that the price is higher than Pantera. Hope to make it over to Monaco and D'Pelufo during my upcoming trip and I will report back.

There are many other similar types of set-ups throughout San Jose, the above are just what I have experienced and heard about. Strip clubs Hollywood and Atlantis are to be avoided at all costs as they are well known rip-off joints.

Alcasar and Lipstick, which are on the list you attached, have been around for a while and from what I have read and have been told are on the higher end in terms of the cost of full service($100 U.S.). Havn't had the chance to drop into these either since I usually finish up at nearby Krysis and Muses late afternoon while both clubs are still closed.

Let us know how your January trip goes. As you know, like you I visited the Dominican Republic a few times and turned to CR for a new landscape.

PLEASE LET ME KNOW how D'Pelufo goes!! They used to have some very nice pictures of their babes on their website but it doesn't seem to be functional anymore.

FYI: If anyone is planning to stay at SL between the 14th-16th don't get your hopes up (like I did) because they are BOOKED SOLID!! I would like to shake the shit out of whoever got lucky enough to get a room (just kidding, lol).

Thanks again for the great info bro. I am definitely going to check out some of those spots, but I am first going to have to be able to pull myself away from HDR, SL, and Key Largo! I know in fact I do plan to check out HLH, Relax, and New Fantasy.

If they are going to be open....some days they are not open.....they typically do not have anyone at the door ( doorman) until around 11 PM, and it may not actually open until around 11:30-12 AM.
It is a late night place which goes to around 4-5 AM.

This is going to be my first time making a trip to CR. I am planning to be there in Mid-December. I am giong to stay in San Jose and from reading all the reports it seems like there is just sex and casinos. I have a few questions hopefully one of you will be kind in answering.

1. Is there anything else to do in the day time besides sex/casinos?

2. Also, can anyone recommend a beach in Costa Rica with the same type of night life.

3. I would like to do scuba diving while staying in San Jose. Is that possible?

Last question. Is 10-12 nights too many nights in San Jose?

I was in San Jose last week Wed and Thurs nights -- and have been there several times before. Stayed in various hotels, so here is the update:

Crowne Plaza Coribici Hotel -- chica friendly only if you pre-register your guest (and you need the correct name because she will more than likely be asked for her ID card). However, I got away with it because I was a late night check-in and my GFE was sitting in the lobby waiting for me. But I did mention "2 guests" when making the reservation -- that is half the battle won ! There was no additional charge for the guest.

There is a strong hotel security presence (front door and right by the elevators on the first floor). Some polite greeting "hola amigo" every time you see them will help wonders.

San Palacio -- last time I stayed there I had to pay an additional $20.00 for the guest. ID was required.

Presidente (Downtown) -- this last trip was a first time stay at this hotel. They have implemented a strict dress policy for the chicas (no mini skirts, now shorts etc). I discussed this with the night manager and he told me that they have done this now for about a year -- just trying to keep it that way. Chica friendly in the sense that you do not pay additional room charges but ID is necessary. I had an OK room -- internet is available in all rooms but wifi only in some of them (so ask first). Flat screen TV has more english channels than you care to have ! Not sure if I would stay there again (all depends on what the rest of my time is about doing). Location is good for a stroll up and down the boulevard after a working day. It is in walking distance to the Del Ray Hotel.

Del Ray Update -- knowing a few insiders there (regulars), by all accounts and their reports, business is "bad" (for them). That means negotiation is easier than before, but the opening bid is $100.00 -- I had a one that opened at $120.00 but she dropped to $100.00 -- an 8 out of 10 Colombian lady, who was well prepared with slip on leg-ins to deal with the Presidente dress code !! Quite a few ladies have this accessory in their purses.

So, my selection was restricted to those dress appropriately, and actually had a great conversation with a young blonde Tica, who spoke perfect English, fitted my criteria, but admitted that she would encounter problems at the Presidente. So, for those staying at that Hotel, be aware of this real code in place and select accordingly.

Del Ray and Key Largo was overflowing -- and this can become a bit annoying especially as you navigate to the restroom.

The live music at Key Largo was so-so -- heard better bands there previously. Interesting that both places empty out quickly after 10pm or so -- either the chicas go home or relocate to other places (not sure where).

I did take a C1000 taxi from the Del Ray to the Presidente (with my regular GFE who wanted to go there to chat to a friend).

The selection at both places covers just about any size, shape, hair color, breast size, culo size, that anyone will need or like !! Seems like breast enhancements are a full craze because it was hard to find any natural ones!!

Enjoy and be safe !!

Phillyman -- 10 to 12 nights in San Jose (on vacation) is LONG time, especially if you are travelling on your own (without a buddy or wingman).

My suggestion would be to spend 2 or 3 nights in the beginning, then head for the coast and one of the beach areas (I am not a specialist on beach locations) but would keep it to Jaco or Manuel Antonio areas.

The 2 or 3 nights upfront will give you time to acclimate to the scene, and you might even find a lady that you will invite to join you at the beach. I am one who prefers to do the GFE experience rather than flipping every morning, noon and night -- it all depends on your choice of what to do. Then go to the beach, but leave yourself the option of staying there till you depart, or come back to San Jose for 1 or 2 nights at the end. If you are a beach vacation person, I am sure you will really enjoy the Pacific coast of Costa Rica

There is not much to do in San Jose during the day -- besides hanging out at one of the malls, and having a nice lunch somewhere different. I usually am working during the day, so really other guys on this board might assist with daytime activities in a little more detail. But 10 to 12 days sounds a bit much to me.

The usual monger routine is to hit one of the massage houses late morning, then a sportsbar or HDRey for beers in the afternoon, nap, and then night scene.

Scuba Diving -- cannot comment on that, but any concierge will assist.

1. Not much
2. Jaco, READ The Forum.
3. No
4. Yes

To Scuba you will need to go to the coast. The Panama/C.R. Caribbean Coast is most likely the best bet.
I did snorkel on the Pacific in the north, Tamarindo and in the South near Quepos, Manual Antonio Park.



This is going to be my first time making a trip to CR. I am planning to be there in Mid-December. I am giong to stay in San Jose and from reading all the reports it seems like there is just sex and casinos. I have a few questions hopefully one of you will be kind in answering


1. Is there anything else to do in the day time besides sex/casinos?

2. Also, can anyone recommend a beach in Costa Rica with the same type of night life.

3. I would like to do scuba diving while staying in San Jose. Is that possible?

Last question. Is 10-12 nights too many nights in San Jose?

Hy guys,

I'm coming to S. Josè December the 24th after a long time out of Costa Rica. Based on your experiences, during the Christmas days (24-26 dec) the town will be totally closed (especially considering the night)? Do you suggest me to go directly to Jaco in these days? Furthermore, can somebody suggest me a good hotel with nice pool and chica friendly? Wich is best casino to play hold'them? Finally, Jaco is only beach town with a good night activity in Costa Rica? Thank a lot in advance, hope to see some of yours in SJ having the chance to offer a drink!

1. Is there anything else to do in the day time besides sex/casinos? There are many language schools, where you can find classes to meet any level of language profeciency (or lack of). If you plan to travel more to Latin America, the more you speak, the more GFE and semi pro experiences are posible.

Check out the local markets (mercado central). Go to a museam. Take a bus to Cartago and walk around. Pay a cab to take you around on a tour all day.

It also depends on how much you like to chill and read a book, and have time away from the grind.

2. Also, can anyone recommend a beach in Costa Rica with the same type of night life.

None "the same." As others have said, Jaco has some.

3. I would like to do scuba diving while staying in San Jose. Is that possible? DK

Last question. Is 10-12 nights too many nights in San Jose?

See one..

24 December XMAS EVE is when most if not all Tico families celebrate Xmas. the HDL is quite all the MPs are down (no pun intended) in staff.

If you have a GFE who has no kids and is not Tica you are in great shape for a cheap TLN.

26 December is the TOPE in SJ Pasao Colon and Ave Segundo are closed for 3000 horse parade. Not to be missed.

Girls get back to work for a few days before 1 january celebration again with family at the beach.

If you want great holiday try MPs and look for a girl who is Not Tico, has her kids outside the county, and then arrange a beach holiday for her ,with yourself.

$50.00 - $100.00 per day plus meals, travel and food. If she turns out to be ungratefull put her on the next bus back to SJ

Thank you member for your suggestions. A little further help: not knowing the SJ scene do you know where I can find that special no Tica girl with no kids? Any web site? Or u suggest me to go directly to Jaco.

Thanks Daniele

Hola Daniele56

You will be doing yourself a huge favor if you postpone your CR trip a few days.

Here is why......during Christmas week and on into the NewYears - say for 7-8-9 days the working girls well just don't feel much like working. That is BIG family time.....they will be home with their kids and Madre and Padre. You won't see many of them. This would be for the local Tica girls as Member suggests below.

Jaco Beach will be much the same - there are a few local gilrs who live full time in Jaco working.....a few....but the rest of them are from San Jose, or from one of the close in foreign countries.....and they too will be on " holiday " and will leave Jaco and go back to their homes - for about 8-10 days during Christmas/News Years.

Now for the foreign working girls...the ones from the Dominican, Colombia, Panama, etc - who come to CR to work....guess where they will be.....they will be going back home to their countries to be with family during the Christmas/New Years holidays.

I spent Christmas 2008 working in San Jose, and I had a regular girlfriend who I had been seeing for several months. Guess where she went----without as much as even telling me about it until the day before she left - she took her two kids and went home to spend about 10 days with Mom and Pop in the country near San Isidiro. I was not invited to go.....so I sat around doing nothing all during that time.

You might find a few gals who will be working during that time....but likely they won't be worth your effort or money. They will simply be the very desperate, lower type of gal who has to work everday just to feed their kids.

So take our advice and don't go for your CR vacation until later........

I would recommend that you try to arrive in CR on or about Jan. 2nd or after.............

Also on the " good hotel with a pool".....there are very few hotels with swimming pools in San Jose. SJ is in the central valley at about 4000 ft elevation ( I believe that is correct), and it stays pretty cool there much of the time - year round - so there are not that many real warm days for swimming - and there are few pools around.

I was in SJ from Sept. 15th until Jan 15th......basically summertime in CR - and was at a large home with a great pool. I was only able to get into that pool one time because it was always too cool for swimming.

(((( Now Panama City is a whole different deal - lots and lots of places with pools there and it is hot, hot, hot there most of the time - so the weather is perfect for swimming - everyday !!!!!! )))))

I would recommend that you forget the pool, and just look for a nice hotel with reasonable rates.....maybe something in the $ 40-50.00 that you would be comfortable staying in.

Look on the board for hotel recommendations - there are several nice hotels in that category......to mention a couple - Hotel Castillo, Morazon Hotel, La Amastad Hoten, Dunn Inn, and or my first choice would be Sportsmans Lodge - but you will need a reservation to stay there, and their rooms start around $ 59.00 a nite. Sportsman's also has P4P girls coming there to work too, which is a plus in my opinion.

But again most of the working gals will take a big break from work over the Christmas/New Years holiday. They will be going to church, and staying home with their familes for the most part during that period.

Costa Rica Marriott Hotel San Jose

Residence Inn San Jose Escazu

SAMARA SANTA = Easter Holiday week

Feliz Navidad = Xmas

Feliz Ano Nuevo = New Years

I spend xmas and new years at the beach fishing.

Hola Amigo,

I have never stayed at any of the Marriott hotels that you have on your list ( all of them would be out of my moderate price range I am afraid.....but I have a considerable amount of experience with being in San Jose CR, so here is what I would do if I were you.

Of the 4 hotels you mention only one of them is half way close to the action in downtown San Jose - and that is your first one - the Costa Rica Marriott Hotel - San Jose.

The two hotels that are in Escazu are approx. 15 miles from downtown San Jose. They are out in the suburbs, which is too far to have to commute to enjoy yourself in San Jose with the ladies.

The other hotel listed in Los Suenos is over right on the beach just North of Jaco Beach. So it is around 125 miles from San Jose.

Of your choices - I would pick the CR Marriott Hotel to stay in the San Jose area, then I would arrange to go over to Jaco Beach for a few days and would then stay at your hotel at Los Suenos. This hotel is top - top 5 Star quality, and you will no doubt love the Los Suenos area. Only thing is that it about 9-10 miles from the action in Jaco Beach......so you can plan on taking a taxi when you want to go into Jaco...or better yet plan of having a rental car for your trips into town - Jaco.

If you did not get the good discount you mention then I would not recommend that you stay at any of these Marriott hotels.....because they are just not very close in or convienent......but with your discount - which I can only surmise might be around 40 to 50 % off....then I would go as advised above.

If you wanted to forgo your discount and just stay at a nice hotel for a reasonable price - then I would look into staying at one of these in San Jose:

Morazon Hotel, Castillo Hotel, La Amastad Hotel, or Sportsman's Lodge - any of these are much closer to the heart of the action in San Jose......but then again you would have to pay regular price.....and all of these are in the $ 45 to 60.00 area for nightly rates.

This is of course is just my opinion - and others might see it differently, and advise you to take a different course.


If I were you I would find a map of San Jose - online - and plot out just exactly where these hotels are located......then locate the Del Rey Hotel in downtown San Jose - which will be the general area where you no doubt will spend the majority of your time while in San Jose. Most mongers will spend perhaps 90 % of all their time in San Jose within just a few blocks of the location of the Del Rey Hotel......so plan accordingly.

11-29-09, 14:56
Dima25...I have stayed in 3 of the 4 hotels so here in a nut shell are the basics. PM me if you want more info. I love Marriotts!

Res. Inn by Marriott...new never stayed there...sorry.

CR Marriott: This is on an old coffee plantation. It has a nice golf course and beautiful views. I have been there 10 times for 5-8 nights each trip in the past 4 years. It is not for anyone on a limited budget. It is up scale and I have brought in various dates each day. Not multiple dates each day. I have even brought 2 dates in at the same time. At night they need to check in at the Front Desk with ID. This is a first class hotel. It is very far from the San Jose action. Taxis at the hotel can help you find what you are looking for. I always stay on the Executive levels so you have access to the private lounge etc. Free transportation to and from the airport.

*From this CR Marriott there is a free shuttle (at least it was a year ago) to the Los Suenos Marriott.

Los Suenos Marriott: Wow....just wow! This place is one the ocean with an amazing pool and a nice walk to the Marina. The Beach is black sand and not that nice. Everything about the hotel is of course first class. I checked in with my date for 3 nights. I meet her at Zona Blue while staying at the CR Marriott. What a great time. I do not know how it would be if you brought in dates each day.

Courtyard: Yes it is girl friendly with ID. It is typical of a Courtyard anywhere. It is right off the highway and there are restaurants close by. Not even close to the level of the other two Marriotts. Far from the action in San Jose so you will need a cab to go anywhere. There was a report a while back on this hotel.

My recommendation is to do the following if your budget allows:
2 nights in CR Marriott, 2-3 nights in Jaco Los Suenos Marriott, and 1-2 nights back at the CR Marriott.

DO NOT GO TO COSTA RICA FROM 12/24 TO 1/2. I have been there and can tell you that it was a MISTAKE!

Dima25
11-29-09, 17:35
Thanks guys for the valuable info. Much appreciated. Of the 4 hotels below which one is the best? Morazon Hotel, Castillo Hotel, La Amastad Hotel, or Sportsman's Lodge. OR are there any other ones close to the action? I'm probably going with 3 friends so was thinking of getting like a 3 bedroom sweet if they even have that.

Flights were a breeze, through customs to the Del Rey only 45 mins. Checked in headed to the elevator to put away the luggage, low and behold heading there I pass right by Melissa, light skin pretty D.R. girl, older I think she is 33, but in as good of shape as any 25 year old there. She has nice 36D natural tits with NO sag and a butt to die for. She only works days as does not like the crowds at night.

She see’s me, I stop, peck a kiss on her cheek and tell her I will be back down in a little bit, she says she will wait, no doubt, I did her last time when I was here in July. Upstairs, put the clothes away and head down to the bar, there Melissa waits.

We have a drink, chit chat about this and that, she went back to D.R. for 2 months in August. I tell her looks like her tits got bigger and she said yes. Anyway the deal is cut, upstairs we go. I love Costa Rica, in less than 3 hours of arriving I am in the bed with a pretty, sexy lady getting my dick sucked bare back.

She sucks for a little while and asks if I have a condom, I tell her no rapido, take your time, I want more blowjob, she said no problem and went right back to sucking. She has a sweet bald pussy that I love to suck also, so we go to 69 with her on top. I lick her from her clit to her asshole, tongue fucking her ass, then back to her clit. It did not take long before I was to receive the fruits of my labor, yep she gives me a good load of her leche, cumming nicely in my mouth.

Now it’s time I tell her, grab the condom, lay her on her back, put her heels on my shoulders & let the fucking begin. She says it’s been a while since she has had good sex and needs to be fucked good, my pleasure I tell her. I pound her for awhile in shoulder/legs mish, then it’s time to switch to scissors, I like it cause it’s a lazy position to rest after mish. We go at that for awhile then time to switch to spoons, I call this the lazy man’s doggy.

Now it’s time to put her on her knees and take the pounding I brought her upstairs for. It’s my first piece of the day so I am horny as hell and have lots of energy. I pound her, spank her fine little ass & she loves it. After a bit she starts to moan loudly & clenches her pussy on my dick, yep here she goes again another nice stream of leche for papi. Now I am getting tired time to switch again, my turn to lay back and get taken care of.

She climbs on board and rides Sally rides doing a good cowgirl, after a bit I pull her down and begin to fuck her back, sure enough here comes the third cum of the day for her, wow she was not kidding she needed to be fucked good. I am worn out not, time for the condom to come off and have her titty fuck me for a bit then finish me off with bbbj cum on her tits. Life is good boys and girls. Man I love this place.

It’s about 6:00 PM now, my buddy and I are at the bar having a grand time. All the bartenders are still here except Jessica & Christy, they are working not even a block away down on the corner at a new sports bar called Chubb’s.

I turn to my left just looking around and there is another of my favorites just walking in. It’s my little 23 year old spinner Jerlyn (a local Tica) and she is looking good as usual. She sees me and immediately comes over, gives me a big kiss and hug. She sits down we catch up on old times, have a drink and agree to meet back at the bar at 10:00 PM. I want to check out more of the action first before I decide to go with her.

The place is starting to heat up, lots of girls coming in now, lots of the same ones I have seen for years & lots of new one’s I have not seen before. Thursday’s & Friday’s still seem to be the best nights. I see allot of possibilities but decide to wait on Jerlyn. Its 10:00 now and here she comes right on time.

We sit, have another drink and then head upstairs. Off come the clothes, both of us take a quick shower then hit the bed. She has nice 36D natural tits also, I love to play with them & she does not mind, I start sucking them right off, kissing her neck and getting her warmed up. She grabs for my cock and starts to stroke me while I kiss and suck her. Once she is warmed up she knows what I want and goes right down for a bbbj, sucking deep and long just like I like it.

I really like her because she is never in a rush, takes her time and never asks for my leche. She sucks me for a good 10 minutes never stopping, by then I am ready to start returning the favor and tell her to turn around to 69 I want to eat her pussy. I spread her wide open, lick & suck her from her clit to her asshole we are both having a good time. We carry on for another 10 minutes or so and she finally cums for me. Now it’s time to start the rodeo.

I grab for the condom and she gets on top for some good cowgirl riding, I let her ride the bronco for a while then pull her down to me where I can fuck her back real good, she loves it and lets me know by her moans & groans. Time to move now, I lay her on her back and pull her little legs up (I have to laugh she is barely 5’ tall so her legs almost do not reach my shoulders) she is a trooper and lets me fuck her as hard as I want.

Time to move again, next to scissors, then lazy doggy (as you can tell I have my routine) getting ready for the finale. Perrito I tell her and she jumps to her knees never asking any questions. Such a cute little ass she has as it stares me in the face while I fuck her and slap her ass in full doggy. I bang her hard for about 10 minutes then once again I am worn out, time for her to do me now. I pull out, lay back take off the condom and tell her to finish me off with bbbj.

But this time I want to try something different with her, I tell her I want to cum in your mouth, she looks kind of surprised and says she has never done that before. I ask her how much, she says I do not know and throws a figure out, I counter with half, she agrees and off to the races she goes determined to have my leche for her desert.

She is a trooper, I had allot to drink so it’s taking me awhile, she never stops, never complains just keeps sucking. Finally, must have been at least 15 minutes nonstop that I can feel the eruption coming. I tell her its coming and do not stop, not only does she not stop she starts sucking more feverishly that ever. I bust a big load in her mouth, finally she can’t take anymore and heads to the bathroom to spit out all the little bambino’s.

She comes back and laughs, asks me if I saw the face she made as the cum started shooting in her mouth, I told her yea it was a nice expression and I wanted to see it again tomorrow. We agree to meet tomorrow afternoon at 6:00 PM so I am not so drunk. That’s another story boys & girls so stay tuned.

Hola Daniele56

You will be doing yourself a huge favor if you postpone your CR trip a few days.

Here is why. During Christmas week and on into the NewYears. Say for 7-8-9 days the working girls well just don't feel much like working. That is BIG family time. They will be home with their kids and Madre and Padre. You won't see many of them. This would be for the local Tica girls as Member suggests below.

Jaco Beach will be much the same. There are a few local gilrs who live full time in Jaco working. A few. But the rest of them are from San Jose, or from one of the close in foreign countries. And they too will be on " holiday " and will leave Jaco and go back to their homes. For about 8-10 days during Christmas/News Years.

Now for the foreign working girls. The ones from the Dominican, Colombia, Panama, etc. Who come to CR to work. Guess where they will B. They will be going back home to their countries to be with family during the Christmas/New Years holidays.

I spent Christmas 2008 working in San Jose, and I had a regular girlfriend who I had been seeing for several months. Guess where she went-without as much as even telling me about it until the day before she left. She took her two kids and went home to spend about 10 days with Mom and Pop in the country near San Isidiro. I was not invited to go. So I sat around doing nothing all during that time.

You might find a few gals who will be working during that time. But likely they won't be worth your effort or money. They will simply be the very desperate, lower type of gal who has to work everday just to feed their kids.

So take our advice and don't go for your CR vacation until later.

I would recommend that you try to arrive in CR on or about Jan. 2nd or after.

Also on the " good hotel with a pool". There are very few hotels with swimming pools in San Jose. SJ is in the central valley at about 4000 ft elevation (I believe that is correct), and it stays pretty cool there much of the time. Year round. So there are not that many real warm days for swimming. And there are few pools around.

I was in SJ from Sept. 15th until Jan 15th. Basically summertime in CR. And was at a large home with a great pool. I was only able to get into that pool one time because it was always too cool for swimming.

((Now Panama City is a whole different deal. Lots and lots of places with pools there and it is hot, hot, hot there most of the time. So the weather is perfect for swimming. Everyday!)

I would recommend that you forget the pool, and just look for a nice hotel with reasonable rates. Maybe something in the $ 40-50. 00 that you would be comfortable staying in.

Look on the board for hotel recommendations. There are several nice hotels in that category. To mention a couple. Hotel Castillo, Morazon Hotel, La Amastad Hoten, Dunn Inn, and or my first choice would be Sportsmans Lodge. But you will need a reservation to stay there, and their rooms start around $ 59. 00 a nite. Sportsman's also has P4P girls coming there to work too, which is a plus in my opinion.

But again most of the working gals will take a big break from work over the Christmas/New Years holiday. They will be going to church, and staying home with their familes for the most part during that period.

The cost depends on allot of factors, but to give you an idea, it runs from $60.00 to $100.00 depends on what you want. If you just want covered blow job and straight covered sex it you can find for the $60.00. You start adding bare back blow job, cum in mouth and the price goes up.

Also depends on the girl, the one I reported on is a regular of mine, I have know her for over a year so, she will do it all for $100.00 (excluding anal) so it just depens on what you want, who she is and how well you know them, as always YMMV, hope this helps

I would have sent you a private message - but because you are a Newbie - you can not receive them yet.......

..............................................

If I were going to go to Panama from Costa Rica......I do not think I would try to to go to Jaco Beach first.

It will probably prove difficult to get to Panama leaving from Jaco Beach.

I am not sure how you will want to travel to Panama....but if you leave from Jaco on the bus it is a long and somewhat difficult trip. You will need to first go from Jaco to Dominical....and there is about 50 miles of unpaved dirt road on that part of the trip. It is a killer in a bus and would even be worse in a car.

You may find that you will need to go to Jaco and then probably return to San Jose to get a bus or to fly to Panama.

The Tica Bus to Panama is not too bad. It is cheap and you can stop off in David Panama for a day or so on your way to break up the trip.....if going by bus.

If you will be flying - you can fly to Panama City leaving from San Jose which will stop in David. Then continue on to Panama City or stay overnight in David....which is what I would do. No extra charge for that.

Check your trip against other advice on this forum from other travelers or do a search on Google for traveling between Costa Rica and Panama.

Jaco Beach is no big deal....even if you missed it you would not be missing that much.

I think I might opt instead of going by Interbus or Greyline from San Jose to Quepos and see the beach at Manual Antonio....that beach is lots and lots better than the beach in Jaco.
Then I would get another Greyline or Interbus to the border at Paso Canoas (Panama/CR border) then go on into David spend a day or two there and then fly out on Air Panama or Aero Pealis (sp) on to Panama City.

Or you can fly back from Quepos to San Jose on Nature Air - then go on to David and or Panama City.

I have been on the regular bus from Jaco Beach to Panama City.....and it is a very long and fairly uncomfortable trip.....best to avoid if possible.....
I would plan to take an alternative route.

One other thing.......I think Jaco Beach will be very quiet - mongerwise over Christmas.....ditto in San Jose....but Panama City may well have much more going on during that time.

The reason is that there are several very large casinos in Panama City and I have always found that they were always fairly well loaded with working girls.

There are lots of P4P girls from Colombia working in Panama City....lots of them - so you may well find that they will not be going home to family over Christmas and New Years. Some of them will of course plan their working around return home from the holidays - but there should still be enough of them who will not be going back home to Colombia to make your trip still interesting at that time of the year.

I have not been in Panama City over Christmas but I will bet that is probably going to be better there for that time period that it would be to be in San Jose or Jaco.

The big casinos in PTY should be ' jumping ' on New Years with some great FREE floor shows and probably plenty of gals to go around for everyone.

If I were you - I would plan on being in PTY over New Year's Eve........

Just adding my "two colones" for Daniele56!

Columbian SPs (and, for that matter, generally, all SPs!) in Panama City are usually expensive(compared to the prices of other Central American p4p venues) and, from what I have read in the Panama/Panama City thread, I would guess that Panama has the "destinction" of having the most expensive p4p of any country in Central America at ANY time of the year!).

With this as a "given", I don't think it would be too unreasonable to predict that prices during the holiday season will increase, especially since the Panama City SPs, probably, know full-well that San Jose(and probably other major Central American cities, as well!) is/are working on (a) "skeleton crew(s)"!

Daniele56, in case you have not read reports on Panama City, just be aware of this as a real possibility and plan accordingly!

After my little Tica CIM last night I was sitting at the bar smiling and relaxing when a dark skinned D.R. girl (her name was Jessie) came over and sat down. I bought her a drink, we talked, her English was very good, she was cute and again another 36D natural titty girl, wow. She asked to fuck, I told her I was done for the night but if she liked she could meet me here at the bar 11:00 AM tomorrow morning, deal she said and was gone.

I had planned on meeting Bunda Man & Mr Jetsetter at the Sportsman Lodge between 2:00 & 3:00 PM so I wanted to make sure I was finished by then. It’s 11:00 AM and I head down stairs, grab a seat, my buddy is already there, we talk about each other’s adventures last night, low & behold she arrives on time.

She sits down we chat some, introduce her to my buddy as I tell him my breakfast is here so I gotta go. Off we go zoom upstairs, waste no time, get undressed and hit the bed. I had already done the negotiations last night so right away she went down on me with a bbbj (btw that is a prerequisite for me, no bbbj no deal) She is good at sucking and actually acts like she enjoys it. I am in love again. They all ask the same question, you have condom’s, like I am going to Costa Rica without any condom’s.

I tell her yes, but despacio I want more blowjob, no problem she says and goes right back to sucking. It is morning time so I know her pussy is fresh, I tell her to turn around and let’s do 69, she had already talked to the girl I fucked yesterday morning and new I liked to eat pussy, so she was happy when I told her that. We sucked and licked for another 10 or 15 minutes, now its time to fuck I told her.

On goes the condom & she climbs on top, she does a bone crushing cowgirl, taking me all the way inside her and grinding me deep when she hits bottom, wow good pussy I say to myself. You know the routine from here, scissors, lazy doggy, doggy (spank her ass she loves it) off comes the condom and finish cum on tits. Its gonna be a good day, I love this place man.

OK I am done, send her home, down stairs for a real breakfast, I am starving now. Eat, go back up shower and off to the Sportsman. Get there I find Bunda Man, Mr Jetsetter seems to be late. We talk about our war stories, have a few drinks, then Mr Jetsetter shows up, he had some complication at the airport. We have a couple more drinks and agree to meet tomorrow afternoon at the Del Rey Blue Marlin at 5:00 PM for some more drinking and pussy chasing. But that is another story boys & girls, stay tuned.

All professions go down there. Just need to have a little play money when you get there. Even met a city police officer on my last trip, go figure. There is an element of secrecy that abounds down in SJ, kind of like Vegas. Interestingly enough, I overheard a woman in my office not too long ago commenting that guys just go to Costa Rica for the hookers. So I tend to stay hushed up about my long weekend adventures.

LK, had a blast. Thanks for sharing in great times. Great reports so far. Remember the guy from Hawaii that you introduced me to on Friday night at the Key Largo? Ended up hanging with him until he left on Thursday. Real cool guy. I'm here until Sunday. Went to Relax MP today and had a fabulous Nica. Heading to Pantera Rosa followed by Del Rey and Key Largo tonight. My report(s) with pictures will follow shortly upon my return. Still want to hook up for Curacao. BM.

If you read my earlier reports you know this romp was already set up yesterday. Its another date with my little Tica spinner Jerlyn. I told her to meet me at 6:00 PM in the bar. I came down right at 6:00 and she was there waiting on me, I liked that. We sit at the bar she has a couple of drinks, I stay on the water. We chit chat, no need for negotiations, that was already set up last night.

She finishes her drinks and away we go. Head upstairs, strip the clothes, no need to shower we are both fresh & clean. I lay back and she never hesitates, goes right down on me with a bbbj. She really can suck a dick and likes to do it, but again I have know her for a year now and been with her probably 8 times. She sucks away never stopping to ask this time if I have a condom.

A good ten minutes pass and I have to tell her to turn for me so I once again can return the favor. She has a nice pussy and really responds when you eat it by sucking that much more. We continue licking and sucking for another good 10 minutes then its time to rodeo again. On goes the condom and up on top of me she goes just like clock work riding me like a true pro rodeo girl. Same ol same ol, scissors, lazy doggy, doggy, spank that ass then time to finish. I pull out lay back, take off the condom and never have to even tell her anything, she know what her job is tonight.

She moves right down on me and begins a very good bbbj once again. I am not drunk but I want this to last as long as it can. Just something about laying back, a pillow under your head and watching a cute girl suck your dick. Did I tell you before, man I love this place. She continues on, never complaining or asking for my leche, she just keeps on sucking. Must be at least 15 mins now and its time, I can feel the eruption coming and tell her so. She responds and starts to suck more rapidly, I tell her its cumming baby do not stop keep sucking. She does what she is told and sucks at a rapid pace. Now I am cumming shooting a big load in her mouth, she is a trooper never stopping till I tell her its ok.

Then something happens I have not had happen since I was a young guy, she pulls off and I get a 2nd orgasm and shoot another small load while she is off to the bathroom to spit out all he little babies. Fuck I came good, damn, best cum of the trip. She comes back, brings me a warm towel and laughs telling me she swallowed some, we laughed and I told her next time she need to swallow it all.

We clean up, kiss, go down stairs and have another drink. She has made her money for the night and goes home after the drink. Life is good boys & girls, tomorrow is another day.

Steve, you've been so helpful! Thank you for the informations. I know that Jaco, specially in Christmas time, will not be very exciting but I think that for a couple of beach days will not be so bad. After will head to Manuel Antonio, possibly Dominical and then back to SJ. We'll drpo the rented car there and then. Right to Panama! I'll write you back when we are heading to SJ so, if it is possibile, I'll be glad to invite you for a drink or a dinner. Thanks you a lot again!

I have an extensive experience in South america, SE Asia, and DR, but this will be my first time in Costa Rica. Was hoping on some advice:

1) Seems like there are tons of places to have sex with women, but are there places where I can get a reasonable massage for an hour and then a handjob at the end? What is the cost of this usually and is this widely available? I am looking for someone who specializes in this preferably, and is has a good technique

2) My trip will be 3 weeks. Could you recommend a good itinerary? (possibly including a trip to Panama?

3) Any recommendations on 1 on 1 spanish instructors? I speak decent spanish but would like to perfect it

Thank you in advance

Hola Amigo,

Almost any of the massage parlors in San Jose should be OK for the type of massage you are wanting. There is an extensive list of the massage parlors in San Jose elsewhere on thisf forum. Search for it and you will see .

Also I could lay out a nice intnerary for you for a 3 week trip to Costa Rica and Panama - but you can easily find all that in other reports that have already been written here on the forum - search for them - I have several reports on my trips to San Jose and also Panama under my handle of - stevewxly - I think if you find them and read them over you will find the answers to most of your trip related questions.

Just in general - and quickly - I would recommend you get into San Jose and stay for perhaps 1 week - then go on to some of the other destinations in Costa Rica - say Jaco Beach for a couple of days - then Quepos - Manual Antonio for 2-3 days, then perhaps a trip up into the highlands of CR to see some of the mountain and volcano areas. Then depending upon if you want to fly to Panama or go by land.....
fly out of San Jose to David Panama - stay a day or so- it is a nice little town with some interesting places to see - then fly on to Panama City and see things there.

You will probably want to divide your time equally between CR and Panama with perhaps 10 days covering each.

If you want to go overland - then the Tica Bus is OK to take to Panama. It will stop at the frontier at Paso Canoas, and you can stay on the bus and go on into Panama City or you can get off and then get onto another small mini type bus and go into David Panama to stay a couple of days (and this is what I would recommend) it breaks up the bus trip into two segments and allows for some rest in between.

Then perhaps you might want to fly on Air Panama or Aeroperlas on your return to San Jose. Last time I did that I got a $ 99.00 one way ticket for that trip - from Panama City to David to San Jose.

A nice side trip from Panama City - try Bocas del Toro on the Atlantic. Great ocean views, nice beaches and such. More for couples and honeymooners than single mongers - but an interesting destination none-the-less.

Spanish schools are everywhere......instead of spending time couped up in a classroom - I might opt to get a private instructor - one that would be easy to look at while she instructs you in "espanol", you could move around seeing some of the local sights and she could also act as your local guide too.

Good luck - have fun, Steve

I advise against. If you leave it on, you will rack up all kinds of international charges for any downloads (email, text, etc) while it's on. I recommend you buy into Skype to use on your laptop or rent a phone while you're there.

I was thinking more in terms of if I purchased a sim card from the local carrier there and had it installed. In DR you can take your phone to the Claro or Orange store and have it activated with the sim card they install in your phone. I was just wondering if the same could be done with your phone in CR.

2)Any recommended one on one spanish instructors? I saw one spanish school online that is close to centro that charges 20 dollars an hour for 1 on 1 instruction. Sounds a bit expensive for central america (1 on 1 instruction in Ecuador was 4 dollars.

Seems every time I turn around I see another girl I did on one of my previous trips, well this is the fourth time this year I have been here so why should I wonder right. Anyway later on that night after I finished with Jerlyn my little CIM Tica, I am sitting at the bar, turn to my left and there is Karla, another little Tica spinner, my guess is probably 22 to 25 years old. I did her in July when I was here last. She was good, deep throat and CIM also, damn this is a good trip I say to myself.

I call her name she looks over at me and squeals, hollering papi, papi why you did not call me papi? I tell her I tried but could not get through, it worked and she sat in my lap hugging and kissing her new walking ATM. She says right away lets go fuck papi, I tell her I already have 2 girls today and I am done, she pouts and asks me another 20 times, let’s go papi I am so horney for u papi, I just laugh and finally convince her to meet me here tomorrow morning at 10:00 AM, she reluctantly agrees, we have a drink and poof off she goes.

I am in my room now its 10:00 AM, no Karla, but by 10:15 the phone rings it’s her telling me she is running late, imagine that, and would be here in 15 minutes. 15 minutes pass and the phone rings right on time it’s her. I go down sign her in and upstairs we go. We waste no time we both know the negotiations and what is expected. She goes right down on me with a good bbbj, but this time she is not taking her time as before and I can already feel what is coming next. She comes up for a breath and says we fuck a little bit papi and then u cum in my mouth ok? I told her no rapido, despacio, but she does not hear a word I said.

Maybe because it’s the morning time I don’t know but she continues to be in a hurry, after only about 5 minutes of sucking she says you have condom, and gets up to look around, I keep them by the night stand and she remembers seeing them and grabs for one. I know it’s to late now to slow her down so I will just make the best of it. On goes the condom and she gets on top actually doing a good cowgirl, but only for about 5 minutes. We switch to scissors and again about another 5 minutes she begins to aks for my leche.
She says she cum already and is ready for my leche in her mouth, damn girl it’s only been 15 minutes and she is ready to go. What the fuck I say I will just cum in her mouth and kick her out never to do her again. Off goes the condom and she goes right down on me sucking really good but with every third breath she says leche papi leche. It’s getting old now hearing her say leche papi leche, so I concentrate and pop my load in her mouth, she takes it all, gets up, heads to the bathroom, spits and jumps in the shower not even bringing me a towel, wow, her walking/talking ATM just closed its doors for any repeat business.

Anyway a not so good fuck and suck is better than no fuck at all, hard to beat a CIM but way to rushed. I will remind her of that next time I see her when she is begging me for another trip upstairs. She did mention to me that she had a passport and visa if I wanted her to come to the states with me and take care of me for awhile, I wonder how much that would cost me, lol. Oh well its only 11:00 am in the morning, lots of time left on my last and final night. Stay tuned boys & girls there is one more adventure to go.

I've done that buy purchasing a cheap phone when I go to Panama and the Dominican, can't see that CR would be any different. But I only use for local calls. I imagine if you use the international code, it could be done. Not sure who the national carrier is, can probably google it.

I can't help you with the first two, unfortunately, but on your third question regarding masajista Marisol, I can. I used her services recently on the recommendation of a friend. I love massages and have had them all over the place and can say that this was one of the best I've had anywhere. I thought the price of 25, 000 colones was very reasonable, given that this was a professional massage for about an hour and a half, not a hack job. The HJ at the end was the icing on the cake. She remained clothed throughout the massage, but this girl has such a beautiful face and sparkling eyes, that was enough. I'd guess she's low to mid-thirties, but obviously takes very good care of herself. She came to my hotel. I'm not sure if she has a fixed place she does massages.

Hope this helps.

Of your destinations before. I use to stay at Maho Beach Resort on the dutch side, "in the day", before they became all inclusive and non girl friendly! I did enjoy the Seamans club there where all the Colombianas hang, And the "White House" on the border where you find the Dominican Population. As for CUR, I know the GM at Holiday Beach Resort, Same owners as the Veneto Hotel in Panama City. They just remodeled the property and he has been asking me to come down, but I just can't get into the scene on that Island. Some love it, I clearly do not. If you have not booked a room there yet, i good probably help you out with a good rate.

Got back from what I think was my 12th trip to CR a week ago. Enjoyed 3 sessions my first two days in town before getting really, REALLY sick with the flu, essentially bed-ridden for four days before crawling back home. The swine flu, perhaps, and I'm still not 100%.

I sessioned with a major-league, 20-year-old hottie at Bar Idem my first night in town. Her name is Tracie, and she's definitely worth a test drive. Saw a couple of other hotties as well, ladies I haven't seen before. BTW, a good friend of mine also works there, a 30-year-old Nica named Cheri. Idem is a little over-priced, but I definitely think it's worth checking out. Upstairs rooms are 31,000 colones all-inclusive, downstairs rooms with shower acces (hot water, even) run 36,000.

The next afternoon, I sessioned with the VERY popular Emily at Hotel Little Havana. Well worth it, but a CBJ. Not sure why, but I didn't request a BBBJ. I know for a fact she would have gone for it, based on inside info from friends who have done her. I normally insure that this service will be offered beforehand. Anyway, she slipped on the condom with her mouth and did a damn good job anyway. A great kisser with a nice body and good attitude.

My last session that night was with my new favorita, a very slender 29-year-old Tica who could pass for a fashion model. Sorry, she does not want her name or contact info made public. I could easily fall in love with her. She is a real sweetheart who speaks decent English, owns her own car and has a good, if somewhat low-paying, job in the advertising industry.

It was a pleasure to briefly run into Lion Killer and Bunda Man at the Sportsmens Lodge. Guys, I'm sorry I didn't make it over to the BM the next day to buy you that promised drink, but, believe me, you were lucky I wasn't around. My flu bug might have hopped onto you!

Well it’s my last night & I want to keep the string going, so far I am 5 for 5 in bbbj’s & 3 cim’s its been a good trip. Its early afternoon now, my buddy & I head down the block to see blonde Jessica, she is bartending during the day at Chubb’s. We have a few drinks with her chat and head back to the Del Rey where we are supposed to meet up with Bunda Man & Mr Jetsetter at 5:00 PM.

We run into Bunda Man in the lobby, Mr Jetsetter is a no show, (found out he was sick) catch you next time Jetsetter. We head to the bar grab a chair and let the drinking begin while we all 3 survey the crowd for our next trophy. Things are not bad, but it’s a little slower tonight than it was on Thursday & Friday nights. But none the less it’s still a pretty good safari.

Bunda & I travel the area, checking out the lobby, restaurant, casino & back around to the bar, still not much, so back to drinking. On more time around with Bunda this time we stop in the walk way from the bar to the lobby, hang out there and interview a few girls. I talked to 3 of them, all of them wanted “cien” and it was a no go on any bbbj, so I kindly laughted at them to told them to leave. Its 10:00 PM now so Bunda, my buddy & I head to Key Lago to see what is available there.

Its not bad, I interview a few prospects but still no bbbj, damn I can’t strike out now, but its getting late and I have to be up by 5:00 AM to catch my flight. Finally it’s freaking midnight and I have to just take a chance. I concentrate on this slim girl, mid to late 20’s I think, her name is Lucy, Bunda know’s her, says she is from D.R., she is dancing all around in an area off the center bar. I cut in and rub a little against her, she rubs back then dances some more. Bunda says if she is as good in bed as she is dancing then it would be worth it. So I take the chance, ask her if she is ready to go to the hotel and she says yes.

Off we go zoom, up the elevator to the room. I never asked her about a bbbj, thought I would just take my chances when we are together. It’s to freaking late to look for anything else now. Off come the clothes, quick shower for both of us & in the bed. Start off hugging, kissing, petting, trying to get her warmed up. I immediately go daty in the 69 position, not wanting to give her a chance to ask for a condom, if she is going to give me bbbj then it will be in this position for sure. I start licking away and she is enjoying it, but she does not respond back to me by sucking my dick, damn I think to myself she is not going to do it.

Then I just take the chance while I am eating her pussy I grab my dick and basically rub it in her face, wow she takes the bait and slips it in her mouth. She just has the head in and holds it in her mouth not going down on it but I do not care, she is still sucking away on it, success at last. We continue licking and sucking for a good 10 minutes more, then it time to fuck. All the usual positions, cowgirl, scissors, spoons (lazy doggy) doggy and as usual, when I am done with doggy I lay back and ask her for another bbbj. This time she does not hesitate, she goes right down on me sucking good and deep this time like there was no tomorrow. I can feel the eruption coming now and she knows it, just before I cum she pulls off and jacks me off to finish with cum on tits.

As I lay there enjoying my efforts, she gets a warm towel, comes back, cleans me up and says I really like you & gives me her phone number to call her next time I am here. I tell her sure I will. She gets dressed and I walk her to the elevator, kiss her & say goodbye, man I love this place. Now it’s freaking 2:00 AM, I have only 3 hours to sleep before I have to get up, but it was worth the pain I will feel tomorrow. Well that’s it boys & girls, a happy ending to a very successful trip.

I am off to the Philippines (Angeles City) for 2 weeks in January, I already have 5 girls lines up from the web, all do bbbjcim & 4 do anal, all from 18 to 22 years old, the best thing about it, it's only $30.00 TLN (all night) I hope they do not kill me before I get the chance to do them all. Have fun in whatever you do. We only live once.

Flight and Airport

Purchased my flight on American Airlines in early October for $277, round trip, connecting in Miami, out of Newark Airport. I left for Newark Airport under cover of darkness early morning the day after Thanksgiving for my 6am flight. There was no air-conditioning on the flight from MIA to SJO. The pilot announced the system was broken. The Gringas and Ticas stripped down to their wife-beaters and halter tops so at least I had that for entertainment while we were waiting to take off.

Upon arrival at SJO, the immigration line was long but moved quickly. I stood at the conveyor belt to pick up the one bag I checked for 20 minutes until I did not spot it and no further bags were popping out. I looked off to the side where unclaimed bags were placed on the ground, but it wasn’t there. The possibility that someone mistook my bag for theirs came to mind. I usually strive to limit my baggage to carry-ons but this trip would last 9 days so that was not possible. I went to the AA counter to inquire. The rep. opened a claim for me and said that if my bag was not returned within 24 hours, AA would reimburse me. I had visions of wearing AA gear for most of my trip. As the rep. was taking the claim, a security rep. brought my bag over and I claimed it, although I was not asked for identification.

After that 40 minute inconvenience, I hop in a cab to Sportsman’s Lodge for $20.00 U.S. In the past I reserved a ride from the hotel but it rarely worked out because I was usually late due to flight delays. In any event, I understand that the SL does not arrange for airport pickup and/or drop-off any more. Apparently, it wasn’t worth it for them financially. I was told by someone staying at the Sleep Inn(near the Del Rey) that the hotel offers free airport pick-up and drop-off but I was also told that you have to pay a fee for guests.

Sportsman’s Lodge

Arrived at the SL mid afternoon in time to shower, shave, and meet up with Lion Killer and Mr. Jetsetter at the SL bar. LK arrived with his buddy followed by Mr. Jetsetter a bit later. LK and his buddy were extremely generous with buying drinks. I tried to keep up in returning the favor but I am sure I owe them a few rounds next trip. Overall, the quality of the chicas as the SL was down, looks-wise, compared to prior trips. Don’t get me wrong though, there were still plenty of great girls and a few stunners. Nicole and Cristina, of Zona Blue fame, can now be found at the SL, although Cristina is there on a less frequent basis. Nicole is a Tica(from what she told me) with a gorgeous face, hazel-colored eyes, caramel colored skin, and a magnificent bubble butt. If you are an ass man such as myself, she is a must do. During the 9 days I was there, she arrived at the SL by early afternoon and left by 5 or 6pm almost every day. She has a great personality. The session was top notch as well and included a nice massage, BBBJ, and a doggy style pounding of that grade A ass to Ja Rule music on my laptop per her request. She has outdated taste in hip hop music! No pictures allowed as she said she had a prior issue with photos. Had her for about 2 hours(unrushed) for $80.00 US.

Cristina was great as well. Very enthusiastic and a tight body. She has a pierced tongue which she made great use of during my BBBJ. She was hanging with Jackie(also formerly of Zona Blue) who she claimed is her sister, although they look nothing alike. Minor drama ensued prior to our session when Cristina explained that they might have to leave at any time because they were guests of another gringo(San Jose stalwart BangBang57 on CRT) and did not have an SL identification card. The SL cedula looks like their business card but has an unique identification number on it permitting the chica access to the SL upon showing it to the guard at the front gate. As previously reported this is a fairly recent policy and apparently as long as the chica looks decent and is not a trouble maker she will be granted a card. Bill(SL owner) was around and gave the girls a card the same night upon my request. I took some great nude photos of Cristina, which I will be posting.

Also hooked up with Tamara of the SL. Tamara is a short brunette Tica with a nice booty. I came to find out a few days after my sessions with her that she has a twin sister. I intended to session with both but it never quite worked out because one of us was always occupied when I saw them together. Tamara also frequents the Key Largo. Tamara was fun in bed and her service included a nice BBBJ. Hope to hook up with her and Sis in February.

Also sessioned with SL chica Rachel once again. I posted a picture of her from previous trips. This time I saw her at Key Largo on a Thursday night with another SL girl. She explained that it was a slow night at the SL for the other girl so she asked Rachel to accompany her to the KL. Rachel did it as a favor because I imagine she has few slow nights given that she is gorgeous and is a great performer. I negotiated $60US for an hour. Ended up giving her $80US(although she did not request more) because we went well over an hour and the BBBJ was once again heavenly. Rachel was telling me that she is studying medicine and is planning for a career as a physician. Says she has 2 years of school remaining.

I’ve stayed at the SL for all 4 trips and will continue to do so as long as rooms are available. I enjoy the atmosphere. Always a party, although not as overwhelming as the Del Rey. Bill, the owner, is very hands-on. He was there every day, for at least a few hours, making sure all of the guests were happy and that everything was running smoothly. My room was Alegria in the clubhouse. With the CRT discount, the price for a 9 day stay was extremely reasonable. Nice new additions include 3 new bartenders, caramel skin cuties with tight little booties. Melissa is still there and is always pleasant. The tall Russian red headed bartender is now at the La Amistad bar and restaurant and yet another former SL bartender is working nights at the Del Rey.

MPS

Checked out Relax, Muses, Krysis, 747, Cha, Cha, Cha, Crisis, Illusiones, Jet Set, Flamingo, New Fantasy and Hotel Little Havana. Also checked out hotel/MP Hotel Marruecos with Member 2964. Standouts included Allison from Relax. She is an 18yr. old Nica and sister of another well known Relax chica, Carolina, who I was with in previous trips. Allison has a great body, nice and tight, just like her sister. Apparently they also have a hot cousin who works at Relax, although I did not run into her. Man, what a gene pool. Allison was a very enthusiastic performer. Gave a great BBBJ and is nice and tight downstairs. Had to get a couple of photos to capture her beauty, which she was kind enough to allow, con ropa. Also had Jenny, who is considered by many to be the Superstar of the low-end Mps. Her work ethic is legendary. On the afternoon I saw her I was coming off a late night, early morning session with a Del Rey girl I took Jenny for an hour (which is now 18,000 Cs) knowing that it was going to take a while to make me pop, if at all. Jenny bobbed her head up and down for a BBBJ that lasted at least a half hour. She did not stop except for a second to answer her cell phone to tell the person she would call them back. I was cracking up because she was switching her mouth back and forth between me and the phone. The only drawbacks is that lately she always asks you to do two girls. She isn’t pushy about it though and you can simply tell her that you are not in the mood for that, although she does put on a great show. Additionally, sometimes I have found that she will try to end the session after the BJ if you do not mention that you want sex. Again, no big deal, just let her know your desire and she will take care of you.

Carolina at Muses was also very good. Caramel skin Tica with long brown hair. Wore a mini skirt the few times I saw her. Fabulous body including natural breasts that I believe are DD. No photos allowed and BJ was covered but the performance was great and did I mention her body? For 10,000 Colones for a half hour you can’t go wrong.

Also had a very enthusiastic bleached-blond Nica at Jet Set named Isis. Cute girl and very sweet. Not the best body but good performer and once again, for 10,000 Cs, she exceeded my expectations. I have photos of her as well. She also gave me her phone number and said she would come to the hotel for 15,000Cs. Claims she works at the Del Rey at night. I thought I saw her walk in the DR one night but I didn’t see her again that night and I’m not sure if it was her.

The selection at 747 and Cha, Cha, Cha was actually pretty bad the two times I went. I was disappointed because for 8,000 C for a half hour the value is certainly there if you can find a diamond in the rough. If you go, venture with a wingman as the area is seedy. Hotel Marruecos had about three cuties but for 18,000Cs for an hour there were better options in the area so I declined. The girls were fun though and had no problem “playing” with Member 2964, who conducted an impromptu Boob contest in the lobby!

New Fantasy and Hotel Little Havana havn’t been on my to do list for several trips now. After visiting a few times this trip this has not changed. In fact, an hour at NF is up to 37,000 Cs!for gringos. Ticos still pay about 12,000Cs. The two times I went they were not using the “fish bowl”. Instead the girls(about 10-15) came out into the lobby. I didn’t see any girl I was interested in for 37,000 Cs. HLH is still about 27,000 Cs for an hour, but the selection was bad when I went. I did see Laura, who looked great with her black tights and tight shirt showing her new breasts. Didn’t bother sticking around HLH for more than a round as the drink prices are expensive (almost 5,000 Cs for two Imperials) and I was told by the Asian bartender that the CRT discount on drinks is only honored if you take a girl to the room. One of the guys I meet had a room at HLH, which he let me see. It was actually pretty nice. He got a kick out of looking through the glass partition separating the bedroom and the shower while the girls were washing up. All of the doors for unoccupied rooms were left open so that perspective guests can take a look. Guests of the hotel pay $25US for the girls so when they have a decent selection this place is a good value.

Del Rey and Key Largo

The new ownership is apparently invoking theme nights which involve the bartenders wearing sexy outfits. It was hard to concentrate on the working girls with all of the bartenders showcasing their flawless bodies. As for the talent, it was typical Del Rey/Key Largo except that Friday and Saturday nights I noticed a decline in girls. In fact, on Lion Killers last night, I commented that there were actually more guys than girls sitting at the Blue Marlin bar. With the bad economy, I also observed even some of the hotties "sharking". In the past they would just stand along the bar or near a slot machine and wait to be handed $100 US. Now I lost count of how my times my ass and cock were grabbed and I heard hey papi.

On LKs last night, the facial expressions of many of the hotties in response to his request for a BBBJ were priceless. So many of these girls were spoiled in the past by guys throwing their money around without having to do much in return. Luckily LK did not have to spend his last night empty handed thanks to the Dominican chica from the Key Largo.

I also have the Key Largo to thank for my first ever squirter, who I hooked up with my first night. We danced the night away without any talk of going back to my hotel. For the two hours or so we danced she only requested a water or two for herself and one beer for each of her friends. Once we get back to the room, man, best way to describe it is that I had to sleep on the side of my bed that didn’t have a puddle.

Strip Clubs

Didn't have any luck at the Strip Clubs this trip. The selection at Pantera Rosa was not as good as past trips. Went to Dpelufo(San Pedro location) on a Sunday night at around 9:45pm but it was closed. From what I was told though, this place won't appeal to me anyway. Apparently the dancers are hot but they want $100 U.S. to session on the premises. A lot of guys go for the lesbian show and to get the girls' phone number to hook up outside the club for less $. If any of this appeals to you check it out and write a report.

Next voyage is February 11-15 2010. Looking forward to it. Happy Hunting, Bunda Man.

Does anyone know if the bartenders at DL are on the hunt like the other girls? I couldn't walk away from the main bar with a hard on one night watching the gal with the long dark hair and boobs to die for. She was so busy I didn't have the opportunity to converse with her. Smoking bod and I think, but most likely wrong, that the boobs are implants

I would like to "second" the comment made by SavePros321!

Your reports are articulate, insightful and "to the point"!

For myself, ss a future resident of the Central Valley area, being aware of the subjects you write about is invaluable as they include places, names, prices and services(however, without drifting into some distracting, Penthouse Forum-like description of how different parts of sexual activity are performed and/or at what intensity level!).

I am "text booking" different reports that will be of value to me when I begin to monger in San Jose and, thus far, your reports make up about 80% of its content!

Thank you for your efforts and keep up the good work!

Thank-you Bunda Man and Lion Killer for you TRs filled with useful information. Too many TRs are just a lot of bragging about how good the guy is in bed and how the girls were cumming all the time !

Good practical information is much appriciated.

Regarding picking up bartenders I personally would forget about it. I have heard that they are considered very high class and usually have very rich boy friends. An average monger would just be spinning his wheels trying to get to first base.

I would think it is like trying to find pornstars for sex in the US. They are there but cost an arm and a leg. For the money you could do 10 really hot girls. Just my opinion though.

Fuddzie,

I think you will find that the bartenders at the Del Rey/Blue Marlin have perhaps been instructed by the management not to encourage or get involved with the customers (mongers).

Maybe if you could meet one of them off-hours then you might be able to do some good with them - but from my experience I have not seen any of them wanting to hook up with any of the customers.
They may have specific orders from management for this - or it may be sort of an unofficial attitude on their part - but in any rate - usually they seemingly do not fraternize with the customers.

You will do better to set your sights on the regular P4P gals and forget about having sexual sessions with any of the bartenters in the Del Rey - BM or Key Largo......although if a "shot was possible" then I think you might have better luck trying to persuade one of the Key Largo bar gals to cozy up with you......in my experience - at least they seem a little more approachable.

Maybe there are others who have more information on this - and if so - perhaps you would care to weigh in on this subject ...........

Just to throw in my two cents.........The particular bartender you are probably talking about does not f**k guys for money. Thats according to your description and who I am thinking about. Not to say that no bartender in the history of the BM hasn't. But its usually the exception.

As far as dating one of them, a buddy of mine's dated one a couple of years ago ( this includes going back to her pad, banging and sleeping over in her townhouse ). She insisted that it is not the norm for her or the majority of the bartenders to do that. But he dated her during a couple of different trips before tagging that ass. So don't think its as simple as showing up and and throwing one liners, and she's good to go. For the record, she does not work there anymore.

As for me, I have have dated one as well, and I will be seeing her in the near future, as I plan to head to CR soon. Don't know if its a factor or not, but maybe the fact that my buddy and I are hispanic....helps a bit in influencing the ladies down south.

But again, anything is possible in any bar, any city, and in any country. Go figure, never did I ever think that I would be hooking up with one of the bartenders when walking into the BM.

* Please don't be a dumbass, and PM me to ask who are the ladies I just mentioned. I am true to my word, and promised to keep it under raps. I would be shooting myself in the foot by mentioning names.

Last time I was there, I heard the bartenders commenting about "how good looking he is". Of course, they weren't talking about me :-) I looked around and noticed that the object of their attention was a very young, good looking Latino. One of the bartenders said "he's just what the doctor ordered", and another bartender told her "if you go with him for free, I'm sure it could arranged". The bartender in lust replied "oh no, asi de ninguna manera". That's like our "no phucking way Jose".

Personally, if I see any of those bartenders in the streets, I wouldn't recognize them. To me, they are just there to hand me the drinks. There's enough available attractive ladies on the other side of the bar for me to choose from. Most of the time it's our excesive attention what makes them almost unattainable, like in giving them big tips (even when the price of the drink already includes the tip!) trying to impress them. It won't work. The most we give them, the least they need us!

That wouldn't work. Chances are that she wouldn't go with the dude anyway and you could kiss a repeat with her good bye. And yes, being a Latino gave you the edge. We are irresistible, aren't we? :-)

I take profit once again of your knowledge for one more question: in Costarica (and Panama) for us europeans is better to carry euro or dollar? Frequently in Latin America (but not in Brazil and Argentina) the euro is undervalued by the casas de cambio or banks and underpaid vs dollar or local currency. Your suggestion?

Many Thanks Daniele56

Look at the way some are dressed. Don't tell me they aren't advertizing if the price is right. I know the bartenders in the Dom Rep can be had, so what makes these girls different? Higher class perhaps? "They" must know they are being watched and evaluated for the hunt.

If you had that body like the one you've been drooling over, maybe you'd dress like that too. Like they say, "if you got it, flaunt it." Just because they may dress provocatively doesn't mean anything. However, it it makes you sit at the bar, drink and make the bar money, then maybe it has served it has purpose. Try this, throw $300 - $400 down on the bar at the one you want and you may get lucky, then again, you may get slapped, lol.

Bartenders (specially in the Blue Marlin) make way more money than those in the Dominican Republic, as a matter of fact, most of the time they are tipped twice as tips are included in the tab.

As for the provocative dresses, come on man, you should know the reason. They're not advertising, that's bait so you, me and the rest go there to drink...a lot. Also, like any woman in CR, they all have a partners, and most of the time, their partners are dudes higher up and close by. Of course they're allowed to flirt, that would keep the money flowing from your wallet to their purse (which it's transitory, it will end up in the partners' pocket), but the only way it could go beyond that, it would be if the partner really needs a thousand dollars, in that case she'll be allowed to go with the higher bidder, which it will never be me.

Why overpay when you can have same or better at a cheaper price? By the way, if you wait long enough, she will have (for various reasons) to cross to the other side and work as a hooker. It's happened in the past already, and guess what? Once on the other side, they tend to lose the attractiveness very fast.

We men are always trying to complicate matters!

About 5 years ago I was finally able to get one of the more attractive Del Rey Casino waitress' to meet me after work. She would not go to my hotel, I believe I was staying at the Morazon at the time and it had to be after midnight. I had to wait for her in front of the National theatre at like 1am by myself. We then went to a love motel< I think it was Eden. This took place after 3 or 4 prior trips of big tips and working her pretty good. I had to pay for the hotel and the taxis back and forth, the wine we had sent to the room ect ect. Bottom line its just not worth it. The actual deed never measures up to the level of the fantasy we create in our minds. Your money and your TIME can be better spent when in CR.

I know what you mean. I was at Key Largo on one of my trips and the two bartending ladies had asses to die for. I was looking at it all the time, eventhough there was plenty of women in Key Largo :(

One great sales tactic used is the take away. If you make someone think a product or service is not available anymore they want it even more. NOW.. if we could use that logic and apply it to dealing with the Ticas we might really get somewhere.

I just wonder how many of you folk have ever marketed yourselves as a good product for the price you offer and not budge? On my first trip last week, I set a firm price of $50 and manipulated a $10 tip or a vibrator. 100% sucess if I stood my ground. A couple were pleased with the dildo and never mentioned a monetary tip. Maybe I'm just lucky.

I was in the block of Idem and Eros and only find a third massage place called Extasis. I walked up and down the blocks on Calle 11 and did not find any other things. The guide from World Traveler seems to say they are all on Calle 11. Any direction would be appreciated.

On another note, I tried both Idem and Extasis. In the afternoon there are a few girls with 8 and above looking and body. Melina (Tica) was tall, ample, soft body, loved to laugh, and had no kids. Service was not bad at all. The price is see 31, 000 and bring your condom to avoid another c1000 charge. If you are interested in college looking girls with decent service, that seems to be the only place that I find in SJO. You should definitely go if that is what you want even if it is a little pricey among massage parlors. In the evening, it is more similar to other massage places. Girls are a little older. In comparison, I do not find girls in HLH as attractive and I find girls in New Fantasy to be a bit more restrictive even if they could have a couple of good looking ones.

Extasis was a regular massage parlor, nothing exciting in terms of looks. I left quickly the first time I entered in the afternoon. In the evening, I sat on the sofa for a few minutes because they say they might have some girls good looking with customers. Then I met Jenny (Nica). Her looks was average and not bad, with a thin and ultra soft body. She had one kid. I do not want to divulge too much information, but it was my best experience with any massage girls in the whole Latin world! If you are in SJO, you should all give her a try. The price is c18, 000 and I gave her a c3, 000 tip.

As to Key Largo and Del Rey, I brought two TLN back for two nights respectively for cien each. Both are good service. One who is really good actually was a waitress at Key Largo before (related to some of the recent talks in CR section) and was a strip dancer too. She has a pretty face and firm body. I do not think she does this kind of trade often at all. In fact, I may be her first sex in the last few months. But I was too tired to perform well and she has to leave early in the morning to take care of her kids. The other told me she has a 5 year old in DR. But I saw leche when we went back to hotel. Turns out the kid is only 5 month old. She wet my bed sheet with her leche.

As to KL and DR, I think I was just lucky to bring the two back (especially the ex-KL waitress), and they also liked me somewhat. I am a little above average looking and relaxed when talking to them. But I know only very little spanish (self learned a bit but never got enough time to do it). There are many choices in KL and DR, most I do not like (maybe I just have an artificially high standard). There are good looking ones, but most does not budge from cien/hour. If you are really interested, and are charming enough, I think it is possible to bring it down to $60, or $80 per hour at least.

Good hunting.

From your description of Jenny, sounds like Extasis and Relax are one in the same. I've never heard it called Extasis, but then again the people who work at Relax do not call it Relax. Relax has purple lights in the window, is across the street from Idem and next door to Eros, but has no sign. There are other MPs in the area(i.e. Illusiones, Las Gatitas, La Mansion, 1071, Crisis, and Bonita) but none, that I know of, called Extasis.

Sounds like you were the recipient of Jenny's world class BBBJ. Welcome to the club. I am posting a picture of Jenny in the Photo Gallery. Let me know if it is the same chica.

Relax and Extasis are not the same. Extasis is a little bit away fron the gulch in Paseo Colon and around calle 28/30 area. It's turned into a swingers club on Friday and Saturday nights. It seems that the price is 12000/half hour and 16000/hour.
I've never been in the place (I don't like hourly places), I just got the information in another forum those who had been there.

Glad that you posted such a great pic so quickly. That is the same Jenny and she told me that her place is called Extasis. Yes, this place is right across Idem beside Eros, with a neon Santa boot on the window right now.

For the rest of guys, you should all experience once the top notch service that she provides. She has a tongue wring, BTW.

I did a 4 weeks trip in Central America. The main focus was not mongering, but I prepared myself anyway in reading WSG about Central America. Here a short report about my time in San José.

Spend some time in Del Rey and talked to the chicas there. There are some really pretty ones. But I was not in the mode to take one.

Went towards noon to New Fantasy which is recommended here a lot. Pretty nice welcome with a lineup of about 10 girls. Choosed Stefanie for 1 hour. Cost is 45 UDS, quite steep compared to other countries in Central America. They have nice rooms with lockers, so it is very safe. Stefanie didn't look as good when the clothes came down as when she is dressed. The service is only CBJ and 2 Positions - she didn't allow doggy. Overall ok, but I was not impressed.

Went the next day to Siboney Massaje at about 11am. When I arrived, the selection was not that great, only some chubby chicas. But then Anna arrived, she was by far the best looking, even though she is at least 30 years old. The "Fee" was 10K or 20USD for media hora. The rooms are upstairs and quite ok, but no shower. So Anna came, undressed and went right to business. Even without requesting from me she started a very good BBBJ and went very deep. She used her tongue a lot. Then we did several positions until I came. She then went with me to the shower outside the room and cleaned me up. Very good service, recommended!

A couple of months ago I went to Eros. There was one stunner that I would rate a 9. I have had bad luck with 9s or 10s so I stick to the 6 to 8 group. She didn't seem too friendly so I went next door to Relax.

Has any one tried that stunner at Eros? If so, how would you rate her and her name.

I hear its better to take a taxi from place to place. What is the cost for a small run from say Del Ray to Sportsman Lounge? I think thats about a mile. I know in Tijuana its spose to be 5 bucks to run from one place to another downtown. ALso. What is the cost in CRC? Is there a better price using CRC or dollars? Same thing with the girls. I know the conversion is not perfect but just curious if you save a few dollars.

How much to pay for a taxi from the Del Rey Hotel to the Sportsmans Lodge ???



A taxi ride from say the Hotel Del Rey to the Sportsmans Lodge ( which is approx. 7-8 blocks) should not run you any more than about $ 2.00. That would convert to approx. 1,000 colones.

Your best bet will be to ask the taxi driver to turn on and run his meter - called the Maria in Spanish - pronounced exactly like the womans name.

I believe it will be easier for you to use colones in San Jose for small fees like taxi's and such - than dollars. And it will perhaps be cheaper too, as some people in CR will not readily be able to do the money conversion - as quickly as you would be able to do.

Taxi fare from Del Rey to Sportsman Lodge normally runs from 1,000 to 1,500 colones ($2 to $3 US). Of course, they tend to charge the 1,500 after dark because they know you will not be walking back, especially at night.

But as you mentioned, a few extra colones makes everyone happy.

I do know a couple of girls I met elsewhere that now work the streets, but even if they are ok, the girl next to her probably isn't. They SWs in San Jose are avoiding the gringos or looking to rip them off. If they want to meet gringos, they don't work the streets. If you want a cheap thrill, check out Calle 6.

Soon it will be 3,000 colones to the Castillo or Sportsman.

Guys its approximately 300-400 colones to Barrio Ammon from the Del Rey.

Most of the taxi drivers that cruise the Del Rey at night are scam artists and do not deserve a "tip".

All you have to do is make certain they turn the meter on, if not get out. Also make sure you flag down a moving taxi and NEVER one that is parked outside the Del Rey. Your lady in tow might even get a little wet over your new found assertiveness!!

This is the taxi story in a 'nutshell'. I cringed when I read about the guy who flipped the taxi driver a 5 dollar bill for the ride from the Del Rey to the Sportsmans Lodge.

That is about three times what it should be for that short ride in San Jose.

Like the women who want and demand 'Cien" - just smile and say "NO"- same with a taxi driver - don't overpay or they will get used to it and then demand that much from their next fare.

The price of gasoline is high....but one does not need to pay 2-3 times what you should be paying.

And one wonders why the area around the Del Rey is over-run with scum. Its like lions waiting/hunting around a watering hole in Africa.

I cant count how many taxis I've gotten out of in different countries where the driver wouldn't turn on the meter.

Listen, I know one or two dollars is not much money, but I will not allow myself to be taken advantage of. Whats so hard about paying what it costs? Just round up to the nearest 100 and that's the "tip".

When leaveing the HDR or NYB walk down 1st ave to the next corner; stand across from the dos gringos resturant and hale a taxi. Or try to hale one on the walk down the ave. The cost to the Sportsmans bar is 510 colon'e on the MARIA {meter}.

I always try to have the correct change; I give the driver 600. Ifs its late and their is a load with multible stops 1MIL.

600 will get you to relax, eros, idem, Hotel royle dutch, club moneco. Hope you are getting the point.

The bus to the airport is 475 colon's. Less then a buck. Its fast dependable and the express buses to the airport leave every 15 min's.

Allways ask for the Maria. ITS THE LAW.

If you are hiring a car and driver for day trips $8-$10 is about right. Example SJ to Jaco 5-6 RT hours same for Punturanous. {they are both about a 2 hour drive at best depending on trafic} The driver has to get home after he drops you off. So unless you are keeping the driver and car for a day trip to the beach with that special gal.

Stay safe and think twice about walking in certain areas alone after 9PM

Member 2964 is exactly right in his advise. I will take it further. When you exit locations like the Del Rey or Sportsman's Lodge the first thing you hear is "Taxi Sir". At this point someone will direct you to a pirate taxi that will take you where you ask. They do not have meters and the usually charge a minimum of $4 2000 colones. Even liscened cabs get in on this action and pick up tourists and fail to run the meter. Cabs will try any scam they can to rip you off. Common is the reply, I don't have change, so it is best to have low denomination bills in colones at all times (1000 and 2000). Many cab drivers do not know the location of the Sportsman's Lodge. You may need to direct them. Their business card has a map on the back. The cab drivers get a commission for taking you to certain locations. The strip clubs, Tango India, Hollywood and Elite give them finders fees for gringos. Be careful going to these locations unless you are prepared to spend a lot of money. There are better clubs to frequent. Taxis receive a commission of 5000 colones to take you to New Fantasy, a massage parlor. I am not a great fan of mps. I prefer long sessions in the luxury of a delux room in the Sportsman's Lodge, L'Amistad, Hotel M, or Hotel Little Havana. MPs are good for a quick pop or to meet girls you may want to invite out later. New Fantasy does no favors for me. I bring more clients to them than any taxi and receive no commission. I bring them there because it provides the best value to my clients. There is a steam bath, dry sauna, secure clean rooms, very good lineup of beautiful young ladies. It is full service. You have to request a massage. The cost is $45 for Gringos $30 for locals. The owner is reputed not to like Gringos. The girls receive $15 for an hour session. Some provide extra services like BBBJ without extra charge others request additional money. There are numerous other mps in San Jose but this is a great service for the money.

I am glad I had bought my exit ticket before going out to the airport. After checking in for my flight I was directed to the longest security line I have ever experianced on any trip in the last 6 years.

Do you know Central Park between ave 2 and ave 4?

standing on the walking Ave 4 with your back to the park and ave 2 between calle 6 & 8 you will see a bank. go up the stairs entering the bank turn right after going through the metal detector. You will see a sign directing you to the correct line; don't take a number or a seat.

Bring your passport and american money $26.00 If you use colones you will be assesed the higher sell rate.

You can buy this any time after entering the country and keep it with your passport in the safe.

I like haveing it filled out before getting to the airport; Its one less line to wait in and the less thing to do before leaving.

I have a picture of the bank that I will post in the near furture.

This is an area with many bars and clubs frequented by younger ticos and ticas. Short cab ride from Sportsmans. Very few if any working girls here. If you go, go with a wingman or group of guys. Don't go alone. This place in not monger friendly and a gringo will most likely stick out in the crowd. Fighting, shootings, and stabbings are not uncommon.

In the 90s it was a set of upscale resturants and bars that opened in an open mall area with sovenir and cigar shops that operated in the day. The problem is that it got out of hand a few years ago because the nightlife grew quite a bit.

Most of the problems were cleaned up a few years ago when the landlord ditched the private securiuty company and hired his own guards. They do a pretty good search for weapons at the front entrance, San Francisco night club style with seperate lines for males and females.

It's a nice place to pickup latin women, but be careful the boys usually outnumber the girls. Just move fast, be polite, make alot of offers and always be closing. Get out early, and once on the outside avoid the parked taxis and hail one on the main street.

Example SJ to Jaco 5-6 RT hours same for Punturanous. {they are both about a 2 hour drive at best depending on trafic} The driver has to get home after he drops you off. So unless you are keeping the driver and car for a day trip to the beach with that special gal.

Stay safe and think twice about walking in certain areas alone after 9PM

here's a thing to remember. I foolishly didn't didn't agree the price from my hotel back to the airport. Assuming it would be roughly the same as the inward journey. On arrival, the driver. Having gone all round the houses on the most indirect route, demanded some exorbitant sum. I felt I could keep arguing as I know the correct price from my inward experience. He then refused to return my bag from the trunk. I got a policeman who wasn't in the least interested and I had to pay up.

Nevertheless. I had a reasonable time there with a couple of decent shags from Del ray and various strip clubs and newspaper ads. Am an old man now after a lifetime of travelling and shagging and searching for the perfect ten. Never found. And I have to swallow 100mg of viagra. Which works wonderfully, but the after effects put me out of business for at last a day afterwards with stomach upset. Muzziness and headache etc. The price of pleasure.

Fudds,

Bus questions -
If you want to take the bus from the airport to downtown San Jose - no problem.

It costs less than $ 1.00 - you need to leave the airport and walk down the hill to the street. You will see a bus stop there on the street - and every bus that stops there will be going to downtown San Jose.

The airport is at the end of the line for the bus - so the buses almost all simply go there - turn around - and then go back to town. The exception would be the bus that is going on to Alajuela, or going on to Jaco Beach.....but it is difficult to spot this bus or to try to get on it from the airport - in my experience.

When taking buses - look on the front to see where it goes - there will be names there where it stops - then also ask the driver - you can simply say,
" San Jose " and if the bus goes to downtown San Jose - he will say " Si " or " Yes." Then get on that bus.

When coming into San Jose....you will be on 2nd Ave. and will go by the Hospital Mexico ( a well know landmark)....keep going for about another 4-5 blocks....you will see on your left the National Theater....next to Papa John's Pizza and Burger King ( on your left) .....keep going another 3-4 blocks......not sure what the crossing street here is...but just get off the bus after you have gone about 3 blocks past the restaurants named above.

You will then be about 4-5 blocks due South of the Del Rey Hotel. Get off the bus and began walking North. Ask anyone for El Presidente Hotel....two blocks North of 2nd Ave.....once you get there walk North another 3 blocks to the Morazon Hotel - turn right - one more block to the Del Rey.

If you want to - you can take a taxi from almost anywhere you get off the bus on 2nd Ave to the Del Rey - and it should be about 700 colones - or about $ 1.50 US.

Bus From Airport To Jaco Beach -

You will be hard pressed to catch a bus for the airport from anywhere near the Del Rey Hotel. It's not the route...

You will need to go to the bus station that has the buses going to Alajuela,- which is a town about 15-20 miles from SJ on the Airport route. This bus station is located about 1 mile from the Del Rey Hotel - and will be on or very near 2nd Ave. - you may have to take a taxi there - cost you a couple of dollars.

Then you get on the Aul bus which goes to the airport...get off at airport and walk up the hill to the airport terminal.

Bus from San Jose Airport to Jaco - somewhat difficult if not fairly impossible - I have never attempted to do this....instead you will need to travel from the airport to downtown San Jose ( and by all means take the regular bus for this from the airport....and they will all be going downtown from the airport).

Then when you get into what you think is the center of town....and it would be a good idea to get off the bus near either of the two big hospitals in downtown.....that would be a good jumping off point for you - or if you ask someone on the bus - tell them you want to get off at the Parke Nicaragua on 2nd Ave......or tell the driver you want to get off there - he should tell when you have gotten there.....also if you can remember the Talamanca Hotel on 2nd Ave...that would be a good spot to get off your airport bus.

Then you will need to make your way from there (somewhere on 2nd Ave. to the Coca Cola Bus Station - which will be over about another 7-8 blocks. If you ask for directions - ask anyone on the street - simply say - " Donde es Coca Cola Bus Terminal - Where is the Coca Cola Bus Station - they will tell you what direction to walk and how far.....one block is una block-ee - rimes with Hockey. So if they point you in a direction and tell you Ocho blockee - then go that way for 8 blocks....then ask again. Donde es Coca Cola.....there is only one Coca Cola....and it's the bus station.

Has really nothing to do with Coca Cola - except that years ago there was supposed to be a Coca Cola bottling plant there - that burned down ....at least that is the story I've heard.

The bus going to Jaco Beach will leave perhaps about every couple of hours....probably about 4-5 buses a day going to Jaco .

Hope this answers your bus questions......

When you reach the guys asking if you want a taxi as you exit; turn left and walk against the traffic; when you reach the main road turn right you can see the bus stop. and cross the street ; walk about 100 feet and you will see the benches in front of the airports parking garage that is the bus stop. There is a bus manager at this stop. Ask him or anyone waiting for a bus for the direct bus into SJ. I like the red R.A.S.C.A bus the best it is cleaner and faster. All the buses stop at this point to pick up or drop off.

Fuddzie, If you WALK down Central Ave going past the clock and Calle 4, 6,8,10 you make the last left before Paseo Colon, .; you can see it directly in front of you. you will be walking against the traffic as this is a one way street; The Bus station is in the middle of the block on the right. stay to your right and walk down past the soda till you see a sign that says DIRECT, the bus is red R.A.S.C.A is the name and you want the direct bus. This is the bus to Alajuala and its first stop will be the airport. Be alert as you near the airpot as the last driver I had a week ago called out to see if anyone was getting off at the airport. There is a porter to load your bags under the bus and when you get to the airport another bus stop tender to unload your bags. walk up the ramp to the departure area.

When leaving from the airport always ask for the R.A.S.C.A. DIRECT bus back to SJ. The bus will come down 2nd Ave and the station is across the Ave from Parke Nicaragua on 2nd Ave......Taxis are everywhere around the bus station and you should not pay more then 510 for the ride to the Ray; anyway less then a mil for the Ray or Sportsmans. depending on the time of day and traffic. Always make sure the Maria is on. and always make sure you get a taxi on 2nd AveIf you are staying at the Royle Dutch it is only a 4 block walk east, up 2nd Ave. Stay on the right hand side of the Ave.

Personally, I don't understand why everybody raves about CR. Really most of the chicas I see at HDR and Key Largo are overweight, old and or ugly. Yes there are diamonds in the rough but then there are diamonds everywhere else too. Then there is the insecurity around HDR and in the area. SL is nice but when I was there a few weeks back there were almost no girls or customers and the ones that were there just looked like they came out of HDR. In fact, I saw them there later in the evening. Same experience at Little Havana or the massage place across the street.

In conclusion my personal and limited experience of CR, where I have had about a dozen chicas, is that it is not as good as other mongering places in Latin America or Asia. Granted it is convenient and the flights from the US are cheap and you can find chicas easily, but that is about it.

But it is all personal preference, I was talking to a guy at SL who was telling me he thought the chicas there looked great, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. By the way, really liked hotel La Amistad (There were 5 Cialis and 3 Levitra samples in a drawer) and really disliked Lifestlyle superfine condoms which I bought in a pharmacy near the Balmoral, 2 out of 6 broke.

Do you know Central Park between ave 2 and ave 4?

standing on the walking Ave 4 with your back to the park and ave 2 between calle 6 & 8 you will see a bank. go up the stairs entering the bank turn right after going through the metal detector. You will see a sign directing you to the correct line; don't take a number or a seat.

Bring your passport and american money $26.00 If you use colones you will be assesed the higher sell rate.

You can buy this any time after entering the country and keep it with your passport in the safe.

I like haveing it filled out before getting to the airport; Its one less line to wait in and the less thing to do before leaving.

I have a picture of the bank that I will post in the near furture.
If you pay the airport tax with a US credit card it is considered a cash withdrawal by your bank and you pay all kinds of fees, always pay cash.

In order to experience the true "essence" of San Jose you have going to have to get out of the "Gluth" or tourist zone and live a bit.

For you mongers that say "What about safety when you leave the zone? " What about robbery or murder or kidnapping?

I say relax. YOU are not that important.

I have a history of mondering in a few Mexican cities, both tourist traps and off the beaten trails. This past year, I made several trips to the Dom. Rep to sample the fruits. The Dom Rep and Mex and venue in San Jose are apples, oranges and pears. On many fronts. I feel much safer in in San Jose...Del Rey etc., the girls are cleaner and better educated and refined. As for looks...yes in the eye of the monger, however there is a larger pool of girls who fall into the same physical presentation than in Dom. Rep. or Mex. In closing,a monger shouldn't go to McDonalds expecting eggrolls and wonton.

One of the unique traits about the BM and KL, and to some extent the SL (I've presonally never been) is that you get a smorgassboard of girls in one locale. All sizes, shapes and textures. If you can't get laid there, you didn't bring enough money, lol. Last time I stayed at the DR, I only set foot outside the hotel to cross the street to KL and/or walk down the street to Chubbs sports bar. I didn't have to take a cab anywhere. When I first started going to CR about seven years ago, the majority of the girls were from CR. Now you have a wide variety of nationalities that bring their own personal traits from their respective countries. What's not to like about that? In addition, it used to be that during the day it was just dogs out before 5 pm. Now the daytime talent is actually pretty nice, if you're looking for an afternoon pop. I too have been to the Dominican Republic and Panama many times. There are no real places that operate under one roof with the talent that SJ had to offer. In addition, you pretty much have to take taxis to get to the hot spots in those countries. One of my friends swears by Panama, I say CR, hands down for my likes.

Trust me, "everybody" doesn't "rave" about Costa Rica -- you are a prime example, along with a bunch of others. Even fans like myself (I've been a dozen times or so) generally consider it a solid to good mongering option that can't begin to compare to such spots as Rio, Buenos Aires, Bangkok/Pattaya, etc. Like you said, it is an easy and convenient and relatively cheap destination. Having said that, many mongers like myself who travel to Costa Rica repeatedly manage over time to learn the lay of the land and to develop a network of lady friends. I have been lucky enough to meet and spend time with a handful of very classy and attractive ladies who would rank highly on most anybody's scale. My current favorita could pass for a fashion model. She is educated, owns her own car, does photography and web design for an advertising agency.

I'm sorry you found the Sportsmens Lodge to be so slow and uninspiring. Bad timing, I guess. I have generally had pretty good luck there, probably pulling a couple dozen or so ladies out of there over the last 4 years. You can show up at 5pm say, and things are pretty slow. A couple of beers later, the place is loaded with options. The same goes for the Del Rey & Key Largo. The talent pool can shrink or expand in a minute. Even in San Jose, a little persistence can really pay off.

IMO, Hotel Little Havana has really gone downhill. The management has done a very thorough job of sucking all of the fun out of the place. Unlike the old days, the hotties don't work there for very long. In this case, maybe I'm the victim of bad timing, but I have only sessioned there once in the last year or so, out of a dozen or so visits. I've had MUCH better luck at Bar Idem, even though it is somewhat overpriced.

Oh well, starting to ramble. Time for another glass of vino...

J Europe, Fuddzie, Nixon BD and Mr, Jetsetter,

Thank you for your comments. I don’t disagree with you, just wanted to clarify that as Fuddzie put it “a monger shouldn't go to McDonalds expecting eggrolls and wonton” and that in my view Costa Rica is a Mc Donalds in a not-so safe neighborhood. By safe I don’t mean “I am so important someone is going to kidnap me” I mean “I am so visible someone is going to attempt to rob me (not that I am wearing gold chains in public, just because I am a foreigner)”. But yes, given the options in the area I see where CR is better than Mexico, DR or Panama. And yes if I were on vacation I would get out of the tourist spots but unfortunately usually I don’t have time and can only monger within immediate proximity of my hotel.

BTW I am sending this from Brazil where mongering is great but horribly expensive!

OK------- I forgive you. I know my Spanish skills are not too good - but they are good enough for me to ask directions, get the general drift of what people are telling me in Spanish, and for me to get along fairly well in all the Central American countries.

The main reason I sent you that message was that I noticed that you had all of 3 posts on this forum....meaning that you are pretty much a Newbie here....and being a Newbie - what could you know of how far it would be from the DR to the Royal Dutch....so it was sort of a trick question.

But now I see that you have lived for 10 years in Panama ( and I am an old PTY devotee too - been there quite a few times) - so I guess the joke is on me - your Spanish is no doubt impeccable and you are not really a Newbie after all......so I guess I should not try to 'judge a book by it's cover".

You should think of going to CR to check it out. Lots of neat stuff to do there, as well as a pretty good mongering scene. If you don't mind being on a bus for several hours, the Tica Bus between Panama City and San Jose is not too bad, and it's a cheap trip to make. Otherwise you could get on either Air Panama or Aeropearlas out of PTY for around $ 100.00 one way.

Last time I did it in 2008 it ran me $ 99.00 -one way.

If I ever get back to Cen. America - and I am kind of burnt out on it all right now - then perhaps we should get together for that drink. I buy you one - you buy me one- and first thing you know we will be 'happy as a couple of kids in a candy store".

Duh - don't you remember seeing the gaming tables and slot machines in the Hotel Del Rey all those times you were there? I guess you only had 'eyes for the ladies' at the time.

But now I see that you have lived for 10 years in Panama (and I am an old PTY devotee too. Been there quite a few times). So I guess the joke is on me. Your Spanish is no doubt impeccable and you are not really a Newbie after all. So I guess I should not try to 'judge a book by it's cover".

You should think of going to CR to check it out. Lots of neat stuff to do there, as well as a pretty good mongering scene. If you don't mind being on a bus for several hours, the Tica Bus between Panama City and San Jose is not too bad, and it's a cheap trip to make. Otherwise you could get on either Air Panama or Aeropearlas out of PTY for around $ 100. 00 one way.

Last time I did it in 2008 it ran me $ 99. 00.one way.

If I ever get back to Cen. America. And I am kind of burnt out on it all right now. Then perhaps we should get together for that drink. I buy you one. You buy me one- and first thing you know we will be 'happy as a couple of kids in a candy store".Hey Stevewxly,

I'm glad we're cool! I am definitely a newbie to these forums but I been lurking for a very long time, even back when it was another forum. I've also been a long time practitioner and fortunately my work takes me all over the world but sometimes to some pretty seedy port cities. Even so, lots of fun to be had out there!

As I mentioned, it has been awhile since I've been in CR but I have travelled quite extensively there in the past. I also have sampled the goods at the Del Rey and Key Largo and a few mp's. I remember chatting to a real stunner at KL (remember, this was well over a decade ago) and she quoted me cien, well I just about blew my drink out of my nose all over her. I'd never heard a chica quote a price like that before! Needless to say that I took out another beauty for $30 TLN and this was quite late and the stunner was still alone! Now this seems to be the norm and here in Panama I'm always hearing ciento cincuenta but you can usually negotiate a much better price. Fortunately, I have a couple of local jovens who take care of my needs but I think that a trip to CR is definitely in order.

By the way, my spanish is very good but I wouldn't say that it is impeccable. I'm not even sure that I could say that my english is impeccable, if you know what I mean!.

Definitely check me out when you get down this way again as I like your attitude about the drinks thing and oh ya, the kids in the candy store thing as well! Just keep in mind that I can't guarantee when I'll be here as when I'm working, I could be away for months at a time.

Cheers!

If I decide to go back to Panama it would be pleasure to meet you and make your acquaintance .
I am sure you could show me lots of new places and things to do in PTY, that I do not know about. Steve

Sundays during the football season don't attract San Jose's best talent. The Sportsman's Lodge being the prime sportsbar in San Jose had a ratio of about 5 guys per chica. The Del Rey had about 1 to 1 but the selection was awful. Most of the ordinary looking chicas brought their ugly sister. The hot ones were few and far between. The guys were more interested in the playoff games anyway. Mondays are usually the slowest day of the week with the action building to its most intensity on Fridays and Saturdays. Most of the mps are open on Sundays but close early. There were good selections at New Fantasy and Hotel Little Havana. I checked out the upstairs rooms at the Hotel Little Havana and they are some of the best in San Jose. The prices are similar to the Sportsman's Lodge, L'Amistad, and Dunn Inn with more delux rooms for the money and the additional benefit of all the in house girls you want for $25 per hour. That is a great deal! The Hotel Little Havana has the best cigar bar in Costa Rica with the owner Eddie being the in house expert. Great place to watch a game, enjoy a beer, smoke a cigar and flirt with the girls.

Gentlemen my apologies, I have read the last 4 pages of reports and none of them have actual chica reports. Although taxi, hotel and other venue fees are important I beleive this forum is lacking info on the talent available and current rates girls charge do you have any of that vital information available to post?

As you have surmised, actual trip reports from San Jose and CR in general are not exactly flowing freely out of the country at this time. I know that things are seemingly a little slow in CR right now - as far as mongering goes - with the present economy - mongering travel to Costa Rica is down quite a bit over what it was previously from a year or two ago.

With all due respect - if you will take the time to do some research by going back to earlier reports I believe you will be able to ascertain what you are looking for from what guys have said about the talent available and the going prices in past reports.

Even with the present economy here and there - the mongering places have not changed, and the prevailing prices have not fluctuated much one way or the other.

FYI- In a nutshell - lots of P4P gals are currently available at the following venues:

Del Rey Hotel, Sportsman's Lodge, Hotel Little Havana, New York Bar, New Fantasy MP, Oasis MP, and many, many other spots throughout San Jose.

There is a fairly comprehensive list (elsewhere on this forum) compiled by Don Gordo on the massage parlors - with names and locations & prevailing prices - and the rest of the gals are available where you can find them - but like strawberries in season - once you find the field - then there are lots and lots of berries to pick.

On their prices - most of the gals at the Del Rey Hotel ,Sportsman's Lodge , or Key Largo club ( across from the Del Rey) will ask for $ 100.00 a pop - but this is just their asking price and can most always be negoiated down to a more realistic figure.
I would think that $ 60-70.00 would work for most of the gals right now at the Del Rey or Sportsman's. I have personally paid as little as $ 40.00 ( Oct. 2009) for a session with a gal from the Del Rey Hotel - granted she was not the 'best berry in the field' - being slightly overweight and less desirable than some of the other hotties - but her price was fair I thought, and worked for me at the time. We went down the street to the Hotel Asia and got a 'short time' room with bath for only $ 8.00 plus the $ 40.00 for her - total was $ 48.00.

You will pay close to that amount for a one hour session with a gal at the New Fantasy massage parlor ( at last check I believe the price for a full service massage was around $ 42.00) , and a little more for the same at Hotel Little Havana. Last time I was there - last October - Oasis MP out near the Machu Pichu resturant just off Paso Calon, was charging $ 22-23.00 for a one hour session.

So that should give you a fairly good idea of what is available in San Jose CR, the prevailing rates, and where to find the action.

Hey guys,

Does anybody know what the current going rate here is? Also, is there any negotiation involved at the strip clubs, ie, BBBJ, or just get what the girl gives? Same question with a place like Idem.

I went to NF last August twice and had two completely different results. When you arrive the front desk gal rings a bell and all the girls come pouring out. They are all looking at you, you at them of course, and then you point and pick. The girl I chose on my first visit did everything. I remember The Righteous Brothers playing on the radio in the cabin, and righteous it was. Everything! The second visit was not as fortunate. Maybe it was because I went 30 minutes before closing. Maybe it was because it was my 3rd session that day. The girl's name began with a B, can't remember it exactly. She was a very short, black haired girl, with a bit of a belly. First thing she did was ask for a $10 tip for BBBJ. The entire session was mechanical. Nyea. The place has nice facilities though and I do plan on giving it a try again on my upcoming visit.

As of my early December trip, the rate for bringing a girl to the rooms located at the front of the club(the booths along the stage are no longer there) was 14,500 Colones. A chicas drink, which includes a full contact lap dance in the club, not private, was 4,500 Cs. As reported on the CRT website, the CRT card is once again being honored and includes free entrance but no drinks. Apparently the PR Manager observed that many gringos were taking advantage of the free entrance and drinks which were a part of the discount and not spending on girls or drinks.

I noticed that the quality of girls was down from previous trips, but the numbers were still there(saw 30-40 girls at 11pm). Certainly with the right girl you can negotiate extras (i.e. BBBJ) for a nominal tip. Best to ask prior to agreeing to go to the room. Same thing goes for all San Jose strip clubs but avoid the notorious rip-off spots(Atlantis, Centerfolds, Lipstick, Alcasar, etc.).

I usually avoid IDEM due to the cost of sessioning there (about $70US, which I would rather spend on a hottie from other venues where I can negotiate multiple hours, etc.) but same goes there as well for extras.

As for NF, I usually stop by every trip but the recent price increase(up to about $45 US for an hour now for gringos, plus the tip the girls usually asks for) and the premium gringos pay for being a gringo(Ticos pay about $20) turns me off. I stopped twice in December and observed that the selection was not very appetizing IMHO.

I plan on visiting all of these locations during my February trip and will post an updated report. Pura Vida, Bunda Man.

Spent a weekend in SJ, hadn't been there in a while. Things still about the same, but SJ is like a woman who is not ageing gracefully, she is starting to look a little rough around the edges, but that is just my opinion.

I was dissapointed in the deameanor of the chicas in the Del Rey and did not session, nor was I tempted to, with any of them there. There were some good lookers, not as many as before but enough. I imagine that there were some nice ones there also, but I did not run across them. I talked to several and did not like their come ons and views. I speak fluent Spanish, but I don't look like I do and in talking to a couple of these chicas I heard the comments they would make to their winggirls or amigas or whatever and that was not a turn on at all. It is one thing to be mechanical and business like, but another to rude and cynical. I did talk to one Nica that got freindly at the end, she was saying that the quality of the clients had really decreased in the last couple of years, from what I saw this I believe.

I saw two dudes get rooked by the chicas they were with, they carried them around for an afternoon and night, wined and dined them and then when they went back to the rooms the chicas sprung some big fees on the dudes and it all got sideways.

I was highly dissapointed with the gambling at the Del Rey. I play quite a bit of black jack and in the past have done fine with rummy there. But good lord this trip it was terrible. I noticed that the pit boss had the dealers shorten the shoe when the table would start to do well, actually I heard him tell him to go shorter in Spanish. The VIP black jack table is only VIP for the Del Rey, the rules are terrible and the size of shoe in play basically gives the house a huge, and I mean huge advantage. I was there two days in a row and saw nobody win, including me. I lost big time there. Yet I was able to go over to the Casino at the Clarion and win pretty substantially. Something is surely out of kilter when playing the same way you do well in one location and poorly in another. I am done playing at the Del Rey and most of the casinos around there.

Looked up a chica I knew through a friend in CR (not available to share) and had a great time saturday night. She was surely a pro/am, and much like many of the chicas in SJ used to be. Went over to NF for a rub and a tug, and it was fine, but much higher in price than in the past. I though the selection was OK. Patty, a cute little Nica was very friendly and I always enjoy their steam room, but man I wish they would circulate the steam or put it lower.

All in all things are what they are in SJ. I imagine that there are some good ones in the DR and for the most part still in SJ, but I don't think the overall quality is once what it was.

Sportsmans Lodge - right in the heart of Barro Amon has a nice bar, working girls, and several large screen TV's. I would check them out for watching some of the Olympic games.

Not sure of a good gym....look that up in the phone book when you get there and you should see several of them.

Have no idea where Barrio Amon is, but for great sports viewing, I recommend Chubbs Sports Bar at Parque Morazan. At least eight big screen TVs all with individual satelite boxes. Plus Jessica bartends during the day, can always watch her too, lol. Wish I had thought about booking over Super Bowl weekend, damn. Will have to wait til the week after.

Barrio Amon is where the following is located: Sportsman's Lodge, Castillo Hotel, Dunn Inn, New Fantasy MP, Hotel Liittle Havana, Holiday Inn, and the San Jose Zoo - just to name a few places there.

Barrio Amon is a suburb (more or less) of San Jose and is located just 3-4 blocks North of the Hotel Del Rey. I suppose it starts just North of Parque Morazon which is the park adjacent to Morazon Hotel, Key Largo and the Del Rey.

Anyway if I wanted to kick back and have a comfortable place to watch the Super Bowl or the Olympics..... that is where I would go, as they cater 100 % to mongering Gringos.

Some buddies and I are planning a trip somewhere quick (i.e. short direct flight) for 4/5/10 to 4/10/10. We are thinking about CR.

Noticed that April 4th is when Easter falls this year. One of the guys can only go these dates. I know it will be dead during Semana Santa but wondering if the talent will be back on the job the Monday after Easter? Do the Colombianas return a couple of days after Easter after being home? I could not find a specific post that addressed this.

Also thinking about Sportmens Lodge? Seems like pretty good reviews here. I think they have a 3br setup. We rent a 3br condo in Rio every time we go there. Thanks.

Start using the "Search this thread" function to get tons of useful info. Re a good gym near Barrio Amon, go to the "General Info" thread (where you should have posted this query in the first place) and enter the word "gym" under the 'Search this Thread" prompt at the top righthand corner of the page.

1. Are there any decent shopping malls in the area to walk around during the day?

2. Best resturaunt in the area, maybe to take a chica for dinner?

3. Strip clubs that don't nickle and dime you to death with drink prices, to sit back, watch the show and maybe negotiate a meet the next day or evening?

I can help you with a couple of your questions-

Shopping Malls - Yes the San Pedro Mall is very nice, fairly new, and should work well for you. It has some nice shops, a very nice food court with just about anything you would care to eat, and a good movie theater with about 6 screens.

It is located approx. 3 miles due East of the Del Rey Hotel. You can take a taxi the first time you visit (should run you about $ 2.50-3.00 for a taxi)and see where it is...then you can take the bus on your next trip - if you are comfortable doing this. I take buses everywhere in San Jose....good, cheap, safe, and fairly quick transportation.

Bus will be marked on the front with San Pedro Mall and other names. Make sure you get on the right bus. The bus stop to use in on 2nd Ave. ( walk out the main door of the Del Rey (towards Key Largo), turn left, cross the street, walk past the New York Bar on your left, keep walking abut another 2 blocks till you get to 2nd Ave. , cross the street, turn left, walk up about another 1 block until you are in front of an outside flower shop.
That is where you would catch the San Pedro Mall bus. bus ride should be about 35 cents or 110-150 colones.

Ride the bus until you see the Burger King on your right and the Mall will be directly across the street. Ring your bell for the bus there....and then you will go around the Rotunda with the fountain in the middle, and the bus should stop and let you off on the other side. You will then need to walk about 1 block back down the hill to the Mall. Or you can get off before hitting the Mall-if you time it correctly.

On your return to San Jose...the buses stop out in front of the Mall and all of them go into town (San Jose). Ask the driver, " San Jose"...he will say Si...get on and go back to town.

More than likely you will get off at the Mas y Menos Supermarket. Then it's a 2-3 block walk back up to the Del Rey. One of the buses goes a different route and will go to the Morazon Park - which is about 100 yards from the Del Rey.....within sight.
After a couple of bus trips out to the Mall and back - you will figure out which bus to take to get you closer your destination - on the return trip.

Best Restaurant -

This is like asking what is the best car - there will be several answers depending upon the person who answers....but for my money I like to take gals out to the Lukas Restaurant. It is very nice, with good waiters, good food that is reasonably priced - moderate - like $ 6.00 - $ 7.00 US for a steak dinner- drinks, wine, and all the trimmings.

It is North from the gulch about 3-4 miles, and should run you about $ 3-4.00 by taxi. There are lots of other fine restaurants...but I will let you discover them or ask others what their opinion on that is.

Strip Club -

There's De Pulufio's - just a few blocks East from the San Pedro Mall...does not open until about 11 PM. There was a small cover charge-like $ 3.00 -$ 4.00- which included 2 drinks- and they did not hassel you to purchase more drinks and also the ladies do not bother you at all.

Another club - Pantera Rosa....have not been there in a long time, but it used to be good.

The only place I know is JR Ribs. Never been myself but lots of fellow mongers seem to like it, though most say to stay away from the coleslaw for health reasons. Cost wise I think it's comparable to what you would pay in the states.

As for restaurants near the gulch. I've always liked taking chicas to La Esquina de Buenos Aires for some really good Argentine beef. Kinda pricey ($40 for two to get stuffed with filet, wine, coffee and dessert). A block down the street is Tin Jo and Don Wang, both highly recommended asian food places. I also like the menu at Cafe Mundo near La Amistad. Also, don't forget about the restaurant at la Amistad. The food is awesome. The chicas sometime like to go dancing at El Pueblo. I once took a few to Papa Pez seafood place there and they really liked it. Not too expensive.

As for strip clubs. I stay out of them. But thats just me.

I don't believe that I could say that I have ever been to Alajuela - except I have come and gone from the International Airport many times.

Action or P4P gals will be where you find them. That is - there may be a few who live out near Alajuela, and there may actually be a masage parlor or two out in that area of town - but for the most part you will find the "action" in other parts of town (San Jose).

Mainly downtown - near the what is called the gulch - adjacent to the Del Rey Hotel - within 4-5 blocks. Now there are little bars all over town where one can find some action even in the outlaying areas. Mostly these bars will be what I would call Tico places - spots where Tico guys hang out and maybe a couple ot Tica gals- who - for a price- will session for sex for money.

Also there are massage parlors located in different sections of town for action, and of course places like the Del Rey Hotel - which I think could safely be called "the P4P action capital of Costa Rica".

If you have been there you know what I mean - if not - then you need to check it out - and then don't worry to much about going out to Alajuela - unless you just want to enjoy a taxi or bus ride out there and back.

I just came back from San Jose and I had a great time, mainly by doing my homework. I have a lot of thanks to Jackson and the members of this website.

I would love to monger more, but this sorry city I live in (Las Vegas) doesn't have a lot of nonstop destinations and most of the people here are trapped behind slot machines.
It takes me 2 flights (10 hours) each way, when I could get there in 4 hours non-stop. I would travel more on my days off, but 20 hours in travelling time?

I booked through expedia ($600) for three nights. I flew with AA and I stayed at the Hotel Parque Del Lago (HPDL). I know, its not P-central. I stayed there, partly to report back what they have to offer and not offer.

I was actually intrigued when I saw they were offering in-room massages. I went to the Philippines one time and my hotel had in-room service as well as a place in the hotel to go. Needless to say, 80% of my mongering was in my room, the other 20 was around the city. I never went to the place inside of the hotel. It was $20 for full service, btw.

As it turns out, their (HPDL) service is on the up and up. It cost me $50 for a deep tissue massage-which was great. I got the feeling it was going to be legit when I read their sign at the F/D that said, it will cost you $150 to bring in a chica. This is if you don't register her at check-in.

HPDL is my kind of hotel. I like hotels like Marriotts and Hiltons when I travel. I don't care if they are not chica friendly, I like to be comfortable at the end of the day.
Besides, I am in my late 40's and I am not trying to conquer (the ladies) in any city I visit.

I read the report on MP's and I saw that the "Oasis" was close by. I decided to take a look at the place and area, the day before. Its easy to get to from the hotel. Only about 4 blocks east on Paseo Colon (at the corner is a KFC) turn at the kfc,one block north!

Thanks to the member who stated that the Oasis is directly across the street from the Machu Picchu Restaurant. When I got to the area, there are no signs of Oasis.
I saw this guy who looked like the "Gatekeeper" and figured that must be the place. The "hood" looked okay and it is within walking distance, so I was set.

I like to go to MP's early. My theory is that, 1. she is fresh. 2. She is not in a bad mood from a bad customer. So, I went about 11am. When I got there, a woman began to explain the prices and times. She started to call for the other girls (4 were there) but I told her it was okay. I looked over and saw exactly who I wanted-Faviola. (damn).

Faviola-young (maybe 21) tica. She looked exactly like a girl I had in the Dominican. Both wore a body hugging black dress, model body (symmetrical) I don't like fat asses or big hips, I like them slim. Both women have long black hair and with their white skin against their black dresses-forget about it.

I did the 1/2 hour for 12k colons (about $25). In vegas terms, that's a bargain. Faviola was all GFE. I loved the way she would say "mi amor" when she asked me questions. Not to brag, but I have did (all I want to do), so the things that interest me at my age are threesome's or 9's and 10's if it is solo. When I go back, I will do a 3 some.

I almost nutted just watching her strip. I feel I have got to get a 9/10 if going solo, so that if she turns out to be a dud, I can just look at her beauty and get a pop. In the end, I did mish and she kept grabbing my ass to pull me deeper? I don't know, but we both enjoyed it.

I speak fluent spanish, but I try to do things that a member could do if he didn't speak the language. I don't try to tell anyone what to do or not do. I write about my experience and let members decide what can help them in their journeys. For me, I just want to experience the women (natives) in each country. I want to get in and get out. I don't want to go someplace that I have to worry about my safety.

There is a bank across the street from HPDL, Bank of Costa Rica, you can pay your exit tax and they gave an exchange rate of c556 compared to the hotels' c545. There are alot of restaurants nearby, the hotel has complimentary breakfast (full) and free wifi in your room.

I am a senior member on the vegas boards, if you have any questions, just let me know.

Does anyone know of any university's/education centers that are close enough to monger locations yet isolated enough to where the students or school officials would not notice. I have been given the opportunity to set up a summer study abroad program in economics. My employer will pay for me to take two weeks for exploratory set up and then it would be a summer program every year after that. This seems like a great opportunity to combine both work and pleasure while my trip cost and stay would be paid for by my employer. Any information on education centers in San Jose or any of the other monger locations would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

i've read alot of her statements made over the past 10 yrs. as a mental health professional, she is very concerned about child prostitution and families in crisis. she is not for gay marriage or abortion, not unlike many in the us. she won with 47 percent of the vote because people feel she is best for the economic problems costa rica is having. as we know, politicians don't like to be caught with their pants down, especially republicians, which we could lable her as. with a quarter and more of the tourist trade coming from our adventures, and desires; i don't believe she is going to change anything except close the mp's and strip clubs. my guess is thst establishments like the dr and sl, are self controlled for ****d and drug trafficing woman.
with this all said, i'm not worried. as a matter of fact, i would expect additional placed like the dr and sl to pop up

but how do you think others more "connected" with the costa rican sex trade than you are dealing with the possibility that your predictions will come true!


i don't believe she is going to change anything except close the mp's and strip clubs. my guess is thst establishments like the dr and sl, are self controlled for ****d and drug trafficing woman.

with this all said, i'm not worried. as a matter of fact, i would expect additional placed like the dr and sl to pop upthese three sizable groups of people may not be in the your "don't worry, be happy" mode of thinking regarding the election of the new president and are deeply concerned about the possibility that closure of all/part of the costa rican sex trade will affect them adversely!

to be sure, the "outlawing" of mps and strip clubs is eliminating the affordability/convenience of sex that most "users" have become accustomed to(and, for a good many ex-pats, especially the single males, imo, the affordability/convenience of sex played a significant role in their decision to move to costa rica to begin with!) and is their "worse nightmare"! to whit:

group i-the gringo ex-pats(many being pensioners/retirees) who live on a limited budget or fixed income and can not afford to spend the $60. 00+/hour for a "roll in the hay" with an sp from the bmb, kl and sl(the "gringo bars", so to speak)! add to this, if they have no choice(assuming the mps and strip clubs are closed down) but to go to the gringo bars to seek sex; they don't live in a "gringo gulch" hotel so they would have the added expense of using a local "hot sheet"(st) hotel!

group ii-the sex workers themselves who work in mps and strip clubs who would lose their livelyhood and (because of looks, age, competition, "working" hour requirements, etc.), have very little chance of moving into the gringo bar "arena" to resume "making a living"! in addition, imo, but i'm fairly certain of this, the sp populations of the mps combined with the strip bars far exceeds those of the gringo bars!

lastly, group iii-the tico men themslves, who can, imo, for the most part, barely afford the reduced tico pricing of either/or of the mps and the strip bars as, for most, buying "company" at a gringo bar, is even beyond a "pipe dream"!

so fuddzie, some groups are worried as, if the mps and/or the strip bars are closed down, their quality of life will "take a direct hit"!

good points, fuddzie....is this election why the hdr has reportedly been on the selling block for the past several years? i would imagine when the economy was booming was their best opportunity to sell. any new owner would have to spend mucho dinero as all the rooms are showing the wear, tear and dna stains. however, the newly elected pres is the one responsible for shutting down gambling in the early am hours. all that did was eliminate income for city workers. it didn't impact prostitution.

Who knows what's going to happen..to be sure sex ain't going anywhere regardless of who does what. I believe the new pres is a psychologist, and as a mental health professional myself, I can appreciate where she is coming from why she wants to do away with our sport. It's difficult for me to disagree with her reasoning. On the other hand, there needs to be other choices for the woman than dealing with us mongers. We do show care and concern. We do respect the woman, city and country. Her job will be to show the woman a better life than what we have to provide them. Until that time, we will continue to be a good employer. Otherwise if she takes our license to hunt, crime and abuse and drugs will rule as never before. We do have a positive role to play for the well being of Costa Rica

had a great trip mid december – mid january.

hung out in san josé for a week, then off to the beach for xmas and new years
.
tried out a couple mps: masajes oasis, veronica massge terapeuta profesional, new fantasy, calle 6, hostel marruecos, idem, relax to name a few; the del ray, key largo, sportsman’s; was so occupied i did not have a moment to step into havana cigar bar (prices are high and girls have not been as good as in the past).

i found the prices to be the same if not a little cheaper. the most i paid for a del ray or key largo session was 20 mil. i even paid 15 mil for an afternoon session out of the del ray. all the girls from the mp’s were willing to come back to the hotel for 15 – 20 mil. for 1.5 – 3 hours session’s. this was true the week before xmas and the week after new years. look for pics in photo section

had a few great meals at hotel la amistad and restaurante lamma fortune and the friday / saturday night buffet at the colonial is a great deal: free if your playing at the tables or slots and get a ticket.

i had taken the bus out of coco cola last november and it worked well so i thought i’d give it another try. i arrived at coca cola at 5:45 am to find the bus already loading and a line that i was now at the end of. needless to say the bus; people standing and sitting in the aisles left without me and three other chica’s (american & english) at 6. after a brief conversation i got on the phone and called a friend who has a van / taxi (he works the airport and is available for trips to jaco /puntarenas etc. pm me for contact info) he showed up 20 min’s later and we were off to puntarenas, we made a stop for gas and coffee and were on the same boat as the bus that had left without us. i had called a friend at the beach during the ride and he hooked me up with another taxi who met us at the ferry and helped carry the bags. after stopping to shop for groceries we arrived 45 min’s ahead of the bus, merry xmas.

i returned to san jose after the new years via the new high way (it was only opened to orintina) but what a fast ride ( taking bets as to how long it will take to totally litter the sides of the highway and when the first pot hole will appear). i like the ride up and over the mountain from orintina and when the buses & trucks start to use the new autopista i will consider using the old route’s as well as the new, less buses and trucks means a faster / safer trip; especially at night.

the new president has her hands full with structurally obsolete infrastructures, attacking new jobs in this global recession, crime on the streets as well as in the governmental offices, drugs and i for one will not waste my or anyone’s time speculating as to when she will shut down the trade. or why a guy in his 80’s is trying to sell his pink hotel / bar / casino. i will and have bought future plane tickets for 2010 thru november and i am looking for that affordable ticket for xmas / new years but so far they want $1100.00 +/- and pricing like that and $100.00 punta’s will do more to shut me out & shut down the cr / san jose trade then laura ever will.

"with a quarter and more of the tourist trade coming from our adventures, and desires"

In reference to the new election and its possible implications for life in The Gulch, we can only speculate. I tend to agree with people who believe that nothing of a substantive nature will transpire. The president and her administration have a lot bigger issues to deal with than closing down the Del Rey. Also, if she went after the Del Rey and other places she would be putting an enormous number of people out of work. Hotel workers, bartenders, waiters, technicians, etc. not to mention a lot of girls who depend on P4P to support themselves, their children and mothers.

On the other hand, local governments have very recently shut down famous venues like Help Disco in Rio and the Riviera Club in Barcelona and it could happen here, too. So, it can and does happen! Chinchilla has also specifically singled out the Del Rey I've heard. If any actions can be taken to PREVENT this from happening it would be wise to enact them now and be proactive.

I am wondering how much money we pump( seem like a good word to use ) into San Jose; Airport and hotel taxes, food, taxis, site seeing, alcohol and stuff we take back home for friends and family. And thats just from our trips, howabout the thousands of dollars each day that the girl puts into the system. We are very important people and Mrs. Pres. would be ill advised to screw ( seems like a good word to use too) with us.

Paddy, it seems interesting that you choose both of those venues closing to illustrate you point, since my "fun times" where negatively impacted on each occasion. The Riv in Barcelona was a great place, but the closing of Help was a little like a death in the family......lol The one thing I am sure of, it a rare, enlightened gov't official that will look at the economic impact before taking action in this arena, let's hope it happens in this case!

It's hard to predict what will eventually happen, if anything, to the sex trade in Costa Rica with the election of Laura Chinchilla as president!

This forum, from what I have been reading, seems to contain two "camps" of thought; that either nothing will happen and the "status quo" will be maintained or that there will be some negative intervention, but, to what extent, only questions and speculation!

These comments are directed to the posters that have voiced their opinion and believe that the new president will leave the sex trade "as is" as she MUST know that, if the sex trade suffers, the general Costa Rican economy will suffer and it is really not a good time for this to happen!

Guys, with all my heart and soul, I hope you are correct but, I believe, that social conservatism(I perceive Ms. Chinchilla to be a social consevative) and tolerance of a sex trade are, usually, mutually exclusive!

Unfortunately, it is an emotional "thing", and "logical" thinking, usually, takes a "back seat" as to get rid of a sex trade, labeling is as a "national shame" and/or against "family/religious values", usually becomes a "slogan of action"!(I welcome any information regarding ANY major city and/or country that openly encourages sex tourism in their of Dept./Ministry of Tourism's official literature!).

Ms. Chinchilla, I believe, was, in part, elected because of her perceived high "ethical" and "moral" standards and her political "base"/constituency, as well, is conservative and is expecting her to "do the right thing" and close down the Costa Rican sex trade, "once and for all"!.(Unfortunately, I believe, she knows that those who work in the sex trade, directly or indirectly, could and can not be counted as part of her "base"!).

Unfortunately, on many levels, the sex trade numbers are too small relative to the general Costa Rican population(and many of this group are legal/non-legal foreigners with a non-voting status) and just doesn't "give credence" to the fact that this is group she needs to maintain her power base!

Unfortunately, the argument that countless jobs will be lost is often "countered" by the opinion that these "sex workers" were employed in a "disgraceful manner"(in strip/p4p bars and MPs) and do not deserve the same consideration that people in "normal" jobs receive!

What may be acknowledged, however, depending on how strong the downtown San Juan hotels and restaurants are "politically connected", is the loss of revenue that they will suffer as a result of the lack of sex tourists. But, then again, I don't believe many social conservatives will "shed many tears" for them. either!

So, it's a real "crap shoot" and we can only hope that "cooler heads prevail" and our beloved opportunities for mongering remain the same as they have been since 1894(the year prostitution was legalized in Costa Rica!).

02-18-10, 04:53
Many goods points have been rendered by Lexb, Fuddzie, Sky Rider, etc. I could not disagree with any of the points they have made.

So, OK, this may be the key issue. Does Chinchilla or do people in her administration have the ACTUAL legal or constitutional power to simply shut down a private enterprise without due process??? I mean, does she have the legal authority to issue an executive order to shut down a privately owned business like Del Rey on a whim??? If you tried a stunt like that in the US the corporation would fight back and hang the government in court for 5 years minimum. I fully understand that we're talking about CR here and due process may be a novel concept.

Also, I have read that prositution has been LEGAL in CR since 1895. How can you shut down a private enterprise for allegedly doing something that has been legal and acceptable for over a hundred years???

Any CR legal scholars out there???

I mean, does she have the legal authority to issue an executive order to shut down a privately owned business like Del Rey on a whim?Don't believe the Costa Rican president can do this as the procedure is initiated and carried through by votes of the Cost Rican legistature(probably by the president's own political party either with legistation initiated at the president's request or just from within her party, with the full knowledge of the president's position).


Also, I have read that prositution has been LEGAL in CR since 1895. How can you shut down a private enterprise for allegedly doing something that has been legal and acceptable for over a hundred years?Simply stated, YES, by changing the law to make what was legal, illegal!

I'm sure it is general knowledge that elected representitives, in a democratic republic form of government, have the ability and power to make, eliminate and change laws(even those that have been "in place" for many years!). It is no secret that this is done, in most situations, it is perceived to be "in the public's best interest" and/or as a reaction to "public pressure"!).

As, I stated in my previous report, outlawing the Costa Rican sex trade, full or in part, would effect countless individuals economically(the workers) and socially(those who find enjoyment patronizing it) and serves no logical purpose except to attempt to regulate morality!

Very true, Fuddzie, but, IMO the sex industry will probably move "underground" to be less visible to law enforcement.

Many of the foreign sex workers will return to their native countries or "give it a go" by moving their trade to other countries and, for the SPs that remain in Costa Rica, will move to the streets or set up "sex apartments" and advertise on "Craigslist"!, LOL

I read on the Costaricablush.com website that the Margaritas Night Club (a well known strip joint) in San Jose was raided and closed by the Costa Rican Investigative Police (OIJ)two days ago. The owner was allegedly "pimping".

This could be interpreted in many ways I guess. Perhaps it's just a random occurance unrelated to the new Presidente. On the other hand, it may be the shape of things to come now that Laura Chinchilla is coming on board. Regardless, it's an ominous sign and I, for one, will be watching developments very closely before I buy plane tickets to SJ.

I don't know why so many of you find it unlikely that "She" will try to put a stop to the sex industry. She is a hardcore feminist!

I see it as a very likely scenario in an attempt to remove the stigma associated with Costa Rica as a sex haven. As someone else suggested, the game will be played underground, but who the hell wants to go to Costa Rica if places like the del rey, new fantasy and S. L. Close down. I don't want the hassle of having to worry about walking the streets with a girl at my side.
