View Full Version : Sosua Reports
The key point here is respect. Respect the culture, your foreign environment and you will reap rewards. When I started mongering, I was fortunate to meet some cool guys who basically taught me the basics, then I discovered ISG. There are members on this board (Jao) and other forums who will bend over backwards to help and provide information to newbies. Sosua, (never been) from what I've heard and read, is a very small mongering oasis in DR, where there are no secrets. So yes, unlike a big city like Rio word travels very fast. Again never been to Sosua but we all know what happened to HELP.
I might get flamed for the next point but I am not hearing anyone / old school mongers trying to reach out to these newbies. Why not simply introduce yourself buy him a presidente and explain to him the benefit of respecting the girls and being discreet? If rebuffed, come here and flame away but there are some who will take your advice and pass it along, then voila! Everyone wins! Just my two pesos gents
Happy mongering.
Have anyone seen the prices to SDQ lately? Geez! Taxes and fees are 20-30 percent of the costs.
Key lessons learned early in my mongering travels
Be discreet and don't attract attention (no flashy clothes/jewelry)
Learn the language and the culture
Tip the locals and treat people well (doormen/security guys and little kids)
Treat the women with respect unless they act like hoodrats

I am planning to monger in Sosua for the first time in August for first time with bunch of friends. Is it still safe and fun for a newbie to enjoy his first trip (like Pattaya in Thailand)? Thanks for the advice.

Just sayin, there's quiet restaurants next door to NG. Who in their right mind would take his family to the NG for dinner, with all those mongers and putas carrying on?I'm not trying to start an argument and forgive me if my post came of "nasty." But I think you should go back and read Manizales911's original posting. No one is talking about taking their family to dinner at NG. Mani was talking about his experience while staying at NG (as a monger). But I still do not agree with you; as a paying guest I should not have to go to a "quiet restaurant next door" just because some asshole wants to blare his music in the dining area while I am eating breakfast at the hotel I am paying my money to stay at (as if I didn't get enough of blaring music the night before at Classicos or passing by El Flow). But maybe it's not the idiots fault; I blame the management there for not making him go back to his room with that crap or else pack his shit and find someplace else to stay. Terra Linda would never put up with that bullshit and I don't believe Wilfred would have either if he was still at NG.
And why should I have to go to another restaurant when breakfast is free at NG (and damn good too!)?

This is live from the front-line within the last hour from a newbie in Sosúa (1. 30 am Thursday morning) :
"At classicos now with XXXX and the bunch. God, Sosúa sucks, only 30 girls to each guy. Dear God, I'm glad it's cleaned up, if this is what you call 'cleaned up', because I'd be dead of a heart attack if it was any better".
Only one guy's view (and to be honest he is prone to exaggerate) but it illustrates the point I have been making about not discouraging newbies from coming. How far Sosúa has fallen from real or imagined better times is irrelevant for them. This guy has been having a ball all week and is already planning his next trip. He couldn't care less about when High Caribe was open or when chicas were 500 for TLN, etc, etc.

Headed down soon with three ex Brazil guy's I met in CR, with a BBL guest appearance. Summertime party. The Miami, ex Brazil guy's are rough, strickly sport fucker's. Nothing like watching a newbie get loose.

Terra Linda would never put up with that bullshit and I don't believe Wilfred would have either if he was still at NG.
And why should I have to go to another restaurant when breakfast is free at NG (and damn good too!)?I can understand Manizale's perspective and his experience is not unique. The last time I stayed at New Garden there was a group who came down to breakfast every morning and every other word was a curse, bragging about what they did with a chica, the night before. After a while I simply did not come down to eat breakfast. They played the music so loud that after several days I started complaining and before I could even open my mouth management knew what I was about to say (I guess I was not the only one complaining).
I was hanging around the Black Box, at the beach, and bumped into Willifried. I described what happened, and my hangout buddy added to the conversation. Willifried responded that this was a problem when he was at New Garden and in the morning he would approach the guys, suggesting that they should keep it down. The guys were pretty cool about it and they listened. Savepro is right—it is about the management. This was an issue with Terra Linda and they made it a point of keeping the noise level down. They go out of their way to discourage this type of clientele from staying at their hotel.
Lorenzo's own friends (and by this I mean his personal friends from Italy) were complaining to me about the noise!
This has been an issue not only at New Garden and Terra Linda but also Seabreeze, Europa, and Casa Valeria (just to name a few of the places!).
These guys are like everyone else in that they are having a good time. I can understand. I would be more concerned if these rebel rousers were violent but to my recollection I have yet to see these guys pick a fight with anyone! Violence, over noise, would be more of a concern to me.
I agree that most of these guys are African American with some Puerto Ricans in there, yet I still find this to be a small group considering most of the guys I hang around with are hard working people who just like to relax and search out chicas. These rebel rousers make up less than 50% (It probably would be more accurate to say less than 25%). They might stand out more because of the noise but so would a clown in a group of priests. It does not mean all the priests are clowns! Let us face it guys, most of the blacks and Puerto Ricans who go to Sosua are pretty laid back and great guys to hang out with. Most of the mongers, no matter what race, are great guys to hang out with. They go there, have a couple of drinks, enjoy the sights, and pick up a chica! It is only a small, but noticeable number who are loud.
I have seen an Indian act out (at Blackbeards) , some Turkish guys acting ridiculous (at El Candil in Boca Chica. It was funny since they were driving the staff insane and the old owner, and his assistant, could not stand them!) and a Caucasian or two acting loud (at Rockys, while eating with a group of guys) and the list goes on and on. They come in all shades and colors but most noticeable are the small number of Blacks and Latinos in the states who decide to stand out.
This is why we go on vacation—guys. We mess with the chicas and in between we hang out at the beach, have a good meal, and sleep well at night. If it was just about screwing chicas, while everything else was bad (loud music while eating and one cannot sleep because people are yelling all night!) than it would not be much of a vacation! I don't know about you guys but if I do not get a good sleep at night I am not a happy camper when it comes to dealing with chicas.
Loud music has it's place (the discos, the beach) but sometimes we all want some peace and quiet.

and why should i have to go to another restaurant when breakfast is free at ng (and damn good too!)?you and mani got me all wrong.
i'm a very quiet conservative older white guy, with a regular novia. except for the first night or so where we let off a bit of harmless steam catching up with friends and family, we're usually in bed by 10 pm. we are known as a stable couple and always welcomed in hotels and condos that usually frown on the chica / monger scene. we respect our hosts, and they respect us, and treat us like old friends. to use gg's expression, we fly as far under the radar as a obvious gringo / chica possibly can.
now to the point.
we go to the bars when we want a little action, loud music, dancing, whatever. we go to the quieter places to eat. there's a choice for every mood.
last time in sosua, we bumped into the "boyz" in classicos. they took over the club and eventually we moved on. we bumped into another "crew" at the casa cayenna bikini contest. same thing, they took over the whole scene (and the chica contestants). now that is not my style, but they were having a good time, paying their way, and never, ever did i or my novia feel in anyway threatened, they're all laughing and smiling and too busy doing their thing to worry about anybody else.
the only hassles i've ever had (and reported here) came from newbie mongers (white) who see us well connected, having a great time, and me with a beautiful devoted chica and her amigas, and want to hang with us. they feel because we stay at the same hotel sometimes, they can pull up a chair and join us. same old, same old, we find out that they are assholes, cannot take a hint, so eventually the only way to get rid of them is to leave the table, or even worse eventually tell them to fuck off. i don't need to spend my precious time down there avoiding some asshole who now doesn't like me, becuase he thinks that i think we are better than him. i don't even have that problem with the local dominicano hustlers, we smile, chat briefly, they move on.
bottom line is sosua is the place to do your thing, whatever it is. you're not a prisoner in some club or bar, move on to the next.
folks here complain about everything. too many hookers. not enough hookers. town too quiet. town too noisy.
some folks spend too much of their valuable time worrying about what other peeople are doing, than getting on with their own business.
everybody wants to make sosua over in their own ideas of what it should be.
it is what it is. enjoy it and don't complain if someone else's idea of a good time is not exactly yours. we're all visitors and don't make the rules, so leave that to the owners. let them figure it out.

I have been enjoying the animated discussion: it is quite interesting to note that the "circumscribed" world of this forum is as much part of the bigger world reflecting all that passes in the outside world. It is very nice to see most people here are truly sensible. They can ignore an occasional transgression and are kind and accepting of others. I remember going to Asia a decade ago and have a steely blue-eyed older Northern German as my companion (but better, Guru) in Jakarta and Bangkok and hearing about tree-lined streets in Bangkok in the seventies. When he started visiting, if you can imagine that. Which I am sorry I missed out on. I guess change is inevitable. I personally lament the crassness I see in the media that then becomes fashionable which the older viewers will lament. The newer ones will not know that the lament is all about and life will go on.
On a practical note: I am trying to fix a hotel in Sosua. Here is the present bunch offer per night after I wrote to them. Please comment based on your experience of the place / s, the value proposition including the NOISE factor.
Casa valeria $45
Terra Linda $60

TempoI presume you left the obvious one, the New Garden, off your list because you don't fancy the frat party environment there? If so, you might want to consider D'Piero, which is chica friendly but is also used by families so everyone is more discreet than at, say, the New Garden. Note that recently, guests there have complained about the noise from the construction work going on at Passions (which D'Piero backs onto), so you if you want quiet check that is over and done with before you book.
Another popular hotel is Seabreeze. They all have their advantages and disadvantages.

First two trips I stayed at the New Garden which had a frat party atmosphere.
Last two trips stayed at D'Piero's. In late June there was construction going on at the hotel and behind it. Not very quiet

Well, we can just agree to differ. I urge newbies to read all the threads on all the boards and make up their own minds whether they can get better value (taking all their outlay into consideration) anywhere else. If they think they can, let them go there and report back to us.
I have no personal interest in encouraging people to visit Sosúa. Quite the opposite. I don't run a business there and I own no property there. There is still the same number of chicas needing or wanting to make money. Sure, the haitianas were thinned out for a bit, but have been coming back in numbers for some weeks, and the dominicanas haven't gone anywhere. They are just hungrier. So with the same number of chicas but far less tourists (because of the purge and the usual seasonal factors) , it follows that prices will drop. And that is indeed what is happening. And if the trend continued, the same would apply to bars and restaurants eventually. My close friends either live here or will regularly return. So, taking a selfish view, if the number of mongers visiting greatly declined, it would be to my personal advantage. But I would hate to discourage any newbie hesitating to come and stop them having the time of their life as is being reported by guys week after week. And they don't have to pay Passions or Blackbeards prices either.
I like your use of the word "pontificating".In late June the normal responses to my offers of 1000 pesos for ST and 2000 for TLN was 'let's go'. Only a few made a counter offer I'm not a negotiator. I would simply respond with 'you have been standing / sitting here for over an hour and I'm the only one to show any interest. The competition will grow as it gets later. I offered a fair price'. In the end ALL accepted my original offer.

one pretty nice, newer, if quiet, place you left out is the el rancho, which is around the corner from seabreeze. i started out my last trip at seabreeze and was looking to move into something better. el rancho would have been my 2nd choice, but i got offered a good deal at terra linda since they had available rooms right at the time. i was also looking for something more laid back than the new garden.

TempoYou will not go wrong with Terra Linda. Awesome restaurant and food, the bartenders know how to mix drinks very well, nice rooms and quiet atmosphere. At 5pm they have (or did have)"happy hour" in where chicas could come lounge by the pool if they buy a drink. Don't bother with the King-sized rooms unless you don't mind lugging your shit up three flights of stairs.
Sometimes the "weekend crew" take over the sound system around the pool towards the end of the week, but I never minded it because the play pure Old Skool Hip Hop, but they usually shut it down around 8pm. No frat-type atmosphere and you can also have your food delivered to your room (menus are in everyroom and you can order by phone). Wi-Fi was sporadic last time I stayed, but may have improved since then.

There are any number of places, many of which are never discussed on this board. It all depends on what you are looking for. At a place like Terra Linda with a full service restaurant and bar, you might end up spending a lot of money on site, which is fine, especially if you want to entertain chicas, and all that. This, of course, is what makes Blackbeard's resort profitable. On the other hand, if you get a place with a kitchen and fix your own food, then that is another story altogether.
Other factors you might consider are the general ambience, type of pool if you like swimming, noiseness and traffic depending on whether you enjoy the sound of racing motorbikes at 3 a. M. Or the sound of music, your fellow hotel guests, proximity to places of ill repute or the beach, closeness to supermercado or liquor store, Wi Fi, Internet availability, and a few other factors. There is no need to book ahead at this time of year. I would take a look at a place first and suss out the general ambience before you plonks down your money.
PM me if you wish, I am in Sosua or nearby for several weeks and could give you a tour of Ye Olde Towne.

TempoI was looking at the Terra Linda last night for my stay in August. These are the prices off their Web site:
Our guestroom rates are as follow:
King: $89US (1 adult).
King: $99US (2 adults).
1 Queen: $69US (1 adult).
1 Queen: $89US (2 adults).
2 Queen: $99US (2 adults).
So if I get a King for $89 (1 adult) , does it change to the (2 adults) price if I have a girl stay over?
Feel free to chime in, because I'm curious.

Sosua Bay is one of best values, right on water, across from After One Disco, free breakfast. Not sure if the 55 a night cash rate is still going.
Stay away from El Rancho it sucks!
Girlfriendlyness aside, each of us looks for different attributes in a hotel: quite a few want a pool, most need wi-fi, some can't do without a Jacuzzi.
My own 2 requirement are:
- as close as possible to the prime location for nighttime action without being noisy.
- a private in-room safe.
I've only been to Sosua once before, and Casa Valeria (considering the cost) did it for me big time.
You never see it mentioned here, possibly because those mongers who stay there like to keep it under the radar.
With this said, I just made reservations for what will be my second trip to the north cost: Sosua, I'm coming!

Feel free to chime in, because I'm curious.They won't charge you unless you are checking the girl in with you, like as if you were a couple (say for instance she came with her luggage also). The King (2 adults) and Queen (2 adults) is what that is referring to.
The 2 Queen (2 adults) are actually two twin Queen-sized beds in one room, but damn, $99 dollars? I never remember it being that expensive!
The 1 Queen 1 adult should be perfect for most mongers. Just tell your wing man to get his own damn room, LOL. And no, they will not charge you for bringing guest (chicas) even if she spends the night. If you show up at the check-in counter upon arrival to Sosua with a chica (like if she was waiting for you at the airport) just be sure to let them know that she is not staying with you (not your girlfriend or wife) and you should be fine.

Can't thank you all enough, for giving so much time to a complete stranger! Had a lot of feedback on all sorts of hotels in that neck of the woods.
Well I am a cheapskate and will settle when I see a value proposition. Unfortunately of course, until you have stayed at a place, you do not get to see the true picture-in good and in bad. Well!
Some of the usual places like New Garden will be a no-no. College days are long, long gone. Sadly! . I love music (no hip hop though. Love reggaeton. In the discos. Great grinding music if you know what I mean) but not first thing in the morning either. (smiley).
So, beach, beer, book but the most important one starts with a "C" and, give me a "h" and.
Un saludo!

You just paid for our next trip. So I would like to say thanks. LMAO.

They won't charge you unless you are checking the girl in with you, like as if you were a couple (say for instance she came with her luggage also). The King (2 adults) and Queen (2 adults) is what that is referring to.
The 2 Queen (2 adults) are actually two twin Queen-sized beds in one room, but damn, $99 dollars? I never remember it being that expensive!
The 1 Queen 1 adult should be perfect for most mongers. Just tell your wing man to get his own damn room, LOL. And no, they will not charge you for bringing guest (chicas) even if she spends the night. If you show up at the check-in counter upon arrival to Sosua with a chica (like if she was waiting for you at the airport) just be sure to let them know that she is not staying with you (not your girlfriend or wife) and you should be fine.Keep in mind the rooms vary in quality at the Terra Linda big time! First time stayed there had ground floor near the stairs a double queen, room was awesome. 2nd time had room on 2nd floor room sucked, paint falling off walls, a / see worked but only on or off no temperature control, a king bed not even Sea Breeze quality. Check your room before you pay if possible.
That's a very "passive" way at looking at things, but maybe it is because I am an American. If we happen to be in town at the same time I'll be sure to let others know that it is perfectly okay (with you) to crank the shit out of their music at your table during breakfast, LOL.
Carry on.Yeah, but I won't be sitting there listening to it. If passive is leaving them to it, and moving on, then that's me.
I don't condone bad behaviour, and I don't put up with it either. But I always leave the complaining to the guys that are experts at it. Besides, its the owners who make the rules (and the money) If they can't figure it out, why should I care?
But get in my face or mess with Princessa, and even at my advanced age, I won't hesitate to throw a punch (if there's a good chance somebody will rush in and seperate us before I get hurt. LOL)
Life's too short to spend my vacation getting myself all worked up about bad puta service, hustlers, bar tab ripoffs, taxi ripoffs, bad car rentals, poor wi fi, bad behaviour around a hotel full of mongers and putas, crooked cops and lack of sleep, which are reported here regularly.
Funny, none of that stuff ever happens to me.
Wonder why?
But stick to your "American" ideals, good buddy, You just might be able to change the world, even Sosua. LOL
You guessed right! I want to be "invisible": relax, do my own thing at my own pace and not have to deal with aggravating factors if I can help it. (smiley) .Sounds like me a couple of years ago, when I first came here.
As you see there's lots if good info and advice from the guys here. I spent my first few nights at the Casa Valeria, and it's exactly as described in the other posts. The big advantage is that it is good value (Dutch) clean and only around the corner from all the action. No transportation required.
Its a good base for checking out what Sosua has to offer, and a short walk will take you past the other hotels mentioned here, so you can check them out for your next trip. (I'm betting there will be another trip)
The 1 Queen 1 adult should be perfect for most mongers. Just tell your wing man to get his own damn room, LOL.

I always travel solo, so the wing man won't be an issue. I thank you for clearing that up. Last trip in April, Jenny at the NG gave my reserved room to someone else. Yes, I was pissed, but Jenny is too fucking cute to slap around.

(smiley).I've stayed at the NG three times within the last year, and did not have any trouble with the noise, frat parties, and such not. I did have a problem once with room reservations, but it was corrected as necessary. I do like the staff and the service has always been excellent. So I personally would not write off NG on the hotel list. But it is your list, so have at it.

But it is your list, so have at it.Also, depending on where you stay, you might want to check your balcony doors and make sure they lock correctly. This may not be an issue for everyone, but I changed rooms one time because the lock was broken and I saw that someone could enter my room through the balcony. The balconies are connected so a person could get on my balcony from another room. In general, I've been happy with the rooms and the service there. There were guys in the morning that would come down to brag about their escapades, but I just blocked out the noise. The breakfast is good, although I don't consider it free but rather built into the cost of the room, so I try to make every breakfast and each as much s possible.
My first time contemplating a trip to Sosua. Is Labor Day weekend worth the trip? Or hurricane season kills the atmosphere?

LexLabor day weekend is definitely worth the trip! Never had weather issues during Sept but keep an eye on the weather patters in case anything big happens. Due to weather patterns any Tropical Storms and things like this seem to hit the South Coast when they come. Read the forum, have a good time, don't overpay just because you're on vacation during labor day. haha Many "rainmakers" in Sosua during labor day weekend! lol

The breakfast that is included with the price of your room@NG, is it a buffet? Do you order off a menu? Thanks!Good breakfast and included in your room rate. There's a menu if you want more than the basics.
When I stayed next door at Casa Valeria, their waiter would always come in late and not get the coffee going till 8. 20, so I would walk up to NG. For those who need that early java fix the NG is definitely the place to get a good, cheap breakfast. Had to remind them though that I was not staying there, otherwise they'd never bring me a bill.
Circa 2009 anyways.

Eggs.
French toast.
Omelet.
Pancakes.
Homefries.
Fruit.
Juice.
Coffee.
Bacon.
Sausage.

LexHurricanes almost never hit the north coast, I think there has been one in thirty years. If you think about it a hurricane would have to pass to the north of the island and then turn and go south, hurricanes don't do that as a general rule.

Usually I leave a 50 to 100 peso tip. But the last two trips I started tipping an American dollar. We have a tendecy to not realize that 50 pesos is more than a dollar because it looks like monopoly money. Being I paid 640usd for my flight last week, my very generous tipping habits will be more reasonable from now on.
Hello, dear friends,
I am thinking of coming to DR this September for a week.
I am a first timer in DR and in need of information.
I am a single male (36yo) coming to have some fun get some sun etc'
Like most single males that comes to DR I am looking to practice safe sex with some lovely beautiful Dominican ladies (I prefer quality over numbers and I am willing to pay a little extra to get it).
I am not a party guy so I rather not hang around bars and disco for long than I have to find what I came for.
If I can do some scuba diving it can be cool (but not a must)
I speak basic + Spanish and can handle myself.
Location; I am thinking Sausa but after the police action I don't know.
How is Puerto Plata? I can arrange a 24 USD per night at the "Be live " not including food.
Or. Santo domingo, but am opened to other suggestions.
Thanks
Sun is shining. Maybe someone will make it rain later.

I always received excellent service and never tipped. In general, I don't tip in the DR because I found that most places I've eaten at include a service charge of 10% in the price of the items, or this charge was added onto my final bill. Since the cost of breakfast is already built into the cost of the room, I assumed the service charge was as well.
For newbies, IMO, if you receive good service and you feel like providing something extra, it will certainly be appreciated by the person (s) who provide you with the particular service. A dollar or two US, or about 10% of the cost of the service, is the norm, depending on the service you are provided.

Once you write that, there are only two options, Blackbeards and Sosúa. I don't think there is any scuba near to Blackbeards (someone please correct this if wrong) and you have basic plus Spanish so it's a no brainer.
Why do you think what you call "the police action" would negatively impact your holiday? (I assume you are not planning to indulge in drugs or under-age girls?)
I note that you don't want to spend time in bars and discos hunting chicas (to many here the chase is a large part of the enjoyment, but each to his own). You are not on a strict budget so you can afford point-and-click at Passions. Plenty of choice there unless you are fixated on fair-skin chicas (ugh!) in which case you might be better off in Colombia.

Your servers in the DR make about $200. A month woking six days a week so quit being such a cheap f*k and tip a little, WTF.
This is live from the front-line within the last hour from a newbie in Sosúa (1. 30 am Thursday morning) :
"At classicos now with XXXX and the bunch. God, Sosúa sucks, only 30 girls to each guy. Dear God, I'm glad it's cleaned up, if this is what you call 'cleaned up', because I'd be dead of a heart attack if it was any better".
Only one guy's view (and to be honest he is prone to exaggerate) but it illustrates the point I have been making about not discouraging newbies from coming. How far Sosúa has fallen from real or imagined better times is irrelevant for them. This guy has been having a ball all week and is already planning his next trip. He couldn't care less about when High Caribe was open or when chicas were 500 for TLN, etc, etc.Was in Sosua for July 4 holiday. All is well. Classicos was an absolute zoo Saturday night. During day, plenty of talent walking around. Rumba full. El Flow full. Sosua Life and D'Latinos packed late at night.
The rumors are pre-mature. You can find anything you want. Sadly Shark Bar has been closed for months. Dust on floor, bar and seats. Seacrets gone. Heard PJs and Happy Bar going.

I just walked my ass to Bailey's most mornings, LOL.I have stayed at both places. I like a glass of milk with my breakfast. The girls at the TL did not charge me (45 pesos) , so I started leaving a 100 peso tip. The breakfasts seem the same. Hot and decent.
Again as cheap as food is, I cannot believe that anyone would cook in while they were there. However, I really think everyone should do what they want. That is doubly so while on vacation in Sosua.

Hot and decent.Thank you for your opinion on the matter. If they seem the same to you, that's great! But (judging by the title of your original post) I think I am entitled to my opinion as well; they don't "seem" the same to me. Sorry. To me it just seems that the cook at NG puts more time and effort into making the breakfast. The breakfast at TL seems like something you would get from the drive-thru at McDonald's.

Gentlemen! My apologies for taking so long to respond to some of yaw comments. Been trying to talk to God aka Jackson the past few days about why my last post was flag but I guess Gods a busy man cus my prayers of a presidente chillin on a beach with a big titty dominicana sitting on my lap nor questions about specifically why my post was flag never got answered. In any case I'm going to repost my last post and hope that God see that I wasn't argumentive at all to anyone and hopefully he doesn't strike me down for a sin that I didn't commit.
Sir Coolie,
Though I agree that the "make it rain" crews that roll through Sosua doesn't hurt anyone's chances to get pussy it can make one uncomfortable and annoyed. I am caucasion and far from racist but I will in fact categorize that certain group of guys that go to Sosua and act like assholes, it just happens that these guys for whatever reason happen to always be African American, why that is I don't know. Believe me I have seen plenty of gringos from all parts of the world show up and act like idiots but that doesn't mean that the "make it rain" crowd doesn't exist, it does and we all know it.
For example, on my last trip to Sosua I was sitting in the restaurant in Sosua enjoying my dinner when a young man with his hat on crooked, wife beater and pants hanging down to his knees came into the restaurant area with a boombox set it on a table and cranked the shit out of it, making every patron in the place extremely uncomfortable including Lorenzo who was having dinner with his wife, child and some of his friends. He and his friends proceeded to sit there and shoot their filthy mouths off about all the things that they did with different girls that day. Now I know the NG is a mongers hotel but there are times where a person should know to close their fucking piehole and not put a boombox on a dinner table. At the NG it is obvious when it is considered dinnertime in the restaurant area because they put linens on the table but this clown could have given a shit. The whole time this was going on I was hoping Lorenzo would grow a set of balls and tell this mofo to pack up and get lost but he didn't and this assbag did the same thing the following night.
Just my 2 pesosManizales911,
No doubt the make it rain crowd does exist and it's not goin anywhere no time soon. I see it all the time here in Vegas where people from all races, and culture come to the club spend 10 thousand dollars on a table and start throwing money in the air but just like anywhere I go when I see these catz make it rain I pay it no nevermind. Let them over pay for pussy and be the suckers. If they want to pretend like money isn't important then so be that but I like yourself know the value of a dollar and I be damn if I go and just throw it in the air just to impress some hoes. I rather spend my dollars on a broad getting on her knees serving me while I'm in my Captain Morgan pose LOL.
And as far as the guy with the boombox I would've went up to dude and ask him nicely to turn off that boombox. If he refused then I would've cut it off myself and if dude wanted to bust a move then so be it BUT either way that boombox is turning off. In any case that should've been the owner or managers job to tell him to turn that bullshit off and stop being a jack ass.
You are guys are not appreciating the big picture. Its not about you, but about Sosua's continued existence as a monger destination.
There are many many forces at work from feminist do gooders, to politicians, to general haters, to higher end investors, who would love nothing more than to shut Sosua down as a monger destination.
In an ideal world, we can all walk around and say that race doesn't matter, that one guy's "gettin' pussy" and acting up doesn't affect the next man's ability to do so. But in Sosua, that is not the case. Each and every monger should take it upon himself to respect the people, the ladies, and the place. By doing so, we ensure that the place stays viable for everyone for a long time.
Don't be selfish. Just because there is prostitution doesn't mean one can disregards all basic decorum and "home training" as we used to say. Take care of Sosua, and it will take care of you. Treat it like a cum dump and shithole, and the forces of evil will shut it down eventually. Do not make the place an open air brothel.
To those Black guys out there who offended, don't be. Just try and understand that some of the nonsense that some engage in is seriously offensive to many. I actually remember when NG was a decent place to stay. Now its been turned to an open air brothel. Not a good look. Go out, have fun, handle our biz but a little respect and discretion go along way.
No body is hating on race specifically, but on behavior as well. Are some judged more harshly than others? Sure, but that's not anything we are new to. Be aware and have some respect.Drlawyer,
Very good valid points! We all have to do our part, the little things like having home training etc to ensure the grown mans Disneyland we call Sosua endures. But we can't worry about the next mans action as well. Other then these young catz living out there long time fantasy of being in a rap videos no one has yet (knock on wood) said that they've done anything bad (I. E. Fighting, murder etc) other then having their pants sag halfway off their ass and playing music in an inappropriate time. If you see a kid doing something that's putting salt to the game pull him aside and talk to him. You'll be amazed how these young catz will listen.
Hell I have a couple young catz right now about to hit Sosua this upcoming week asking me about the dos and donts of mongering. And sure enough they wanted to rock and give away the ed hardys shirts, be flashy with the rings and watches while chillen in the VIP throwing money in the air 'BUT' after I told them that's not cool and explained to them the reasons they decided to tone it down. Now at first site you would think here we go again with some more make it rain fellas but these catz are nothing more then hardworking, good people that's been saving up there money for the past year and is ready to live out there fantasy. All was needed was some proper guidance so they don't put salt in the game. And in essence that's what this board is about. Knowledge on proper mongering. Cus I sure didn't learn threw osmosis. All the senior OG's that's been posting for years are the reason why my past couple trips been fun and enjoyable. I shudder to think how things would turn out in Sosua if it wasn't for this board. I probably be another Western Union statistic LOL.
I hope that we don't end up spending weeks going on and on about race gents. But here is something we can all agree on:
In the mongering world, there is only one color that really matters: GREEN. It doesn't matter what race you are; if you don't have those Ben Franklin's then you don't get any pussy. Period! If you spend you all of your money on airfare and hotel and show up to Sosua broke, then you will be standing on the sidelines holding your dick while I, Coolie High, and others parade chicas in and out of Classicos for the duration of your stay.
(Note: I was not being "color-sensitive" as to money. Your country's currency color may vary, LOL) AMEN! Its all about the money! 'AT ALL' times.
Hey, where's the love why'all?
Folks, sounds like Coolie's gettin a little, shall we say, tensed up?
That's what being too long away from pussy paradise does to us all Coolie!
Get yer ass down there soon or we be reading about you in the papers LOL.
We need your reports!Oakie,
This what happens when you have to deal with american woman for a year LOL. A brother gets tense LOL. Less then 30 days before I'm back in the promise land.
I was mearly pointing out a well-establish fact. You elected to draw the race card, not me.
This "element" didn't (note past-tense)"hurt my chances of getting pussy in Sosua" because we were never chasing the same shade of skin.
Thanks for the warning about making it rain in Aug, but why bother. We ALL knew it was going to happen!
You tell me. I'm not the one with a dedicated thread here.My man! Right on Q for another smart ass but uninformative comment. Mr. Gogo I think where done here.
I might get flamed for the next point but I am not hearing anyone / old school mongers trying to reach out to these newbies. Why not simply introduce yourself buy him a presidente and explain to him the benefit of respecting the girls and being discreet? If rebuffed, come here and flame away but there are some who will take your advice and pass it along, then voila! Everyone wins! Just my two pesos gents
Happy mongering.My point exactly. Like Chief told me, 'Each one, Teach one'.
And on that note gents ill be in Haiti from Aug 5th-9th and then from there ima travel to Sosua and chill to the 12th. If any one wants to get up with me for some drinks hit me up. Shout-outs to Sovereign, DeepMmpactt and TomJackin.

My man! Right on Q for another smart ass but uninformative comment. Mr. Gogo I think where done here.
My point exactly. Like Chief told me, 'Each one, Teach one'.
And on that note gents ill be in Haiti from Aug 5th-9th and then from there ima travel to Sosua and chill to the 12th. If any one wants to get up with me for some drinks hit me up. Shout-outs to Sovereign, DeepMmpactt and TomJackin.
PeaceMani you kill me because you are so real. Right now the real racist's are calling you a sellout but they will never understand that it's not about race but respect due. I'm there when you are, but we don't make it rain. I got secrets that you will enjoy. Like my personal after hours strip club (naked). You are going to have a ball, summertime party, check for pm later this month.

I am a first timer in DR
Why do you think what you call "the police action" would negatively impact your holiday? (I assume you are not planning to indulge in drugs or under-age girls?) Love your wry humor, Charles. So tongue in cheek! (smiley). Oh, by the way, thanks to Frannie, came to know of the character Pooter and "pooterism".
Gentlemen! My apologies for taking so long to respond to some of yaw comments.
PeaceCoolie you are a great guy, you are my hermano, anytime you want to hang, mi casa es tu casa.
Again as cheap as food is, I cannot believe that anyone would cook in while they were there. However, I really think everyone should do what they want. That is doubly so while on vacation in Sosua.I agree that everyone should do what they want on vacation, which is why I didn't respond to a childish comment below.
I like Baileys and Susanna's on occasion but if I'm there for a long time that gets old to me after awhile. There is also a restaurant in Puerto Plata that I will stop by on every trip for various reasons as well as a place I use to go to in Cabarete for the paella but I think it closed down. La Roca also has good buffets and the fish soap used to be a favorite but I didn't get a chance to get any on my last trip. I have a friend that works at Terra Linda and she told me the food is good, but I never made it by for lunch or dinner so that is a must on my next trip.
As far as "cook in" I actually prefer to rent an apartment or villa and have some chicas cook for me than eat at most of the places in Sosua.
Again, I've attached a few pics. One is a pic of a typical dish at Susana's. I like the food at her place. She has moved around over the years and the price of the food has gone up, but the consistency and quality has always been there for me. If you like comida tipica, this is the spot IMO in Sosua.
Another is of the breakfast at Colibri, which, as you can see, pales in comparison to NG. However, I always prefer a hotel that offers breakfast for those lazy days.
Lastly, an example of why I do like to "cook in." One of my regulars cooking in the penthouse that I rent on occasion. I think this particular night pollo guisado and bacalao con papas was on the menu.

And on that note gents ill be in Haiti from Aug 5th-9th...Will very much be looking forward to that trip report! The Haiti forum is too quiet for it; the Sosua board may not welcome it; but I am certain that it will definitely be welcome in Gogo's forum!
Here is some motivation as a friendly reminder of what those Haitianas are capable of (sorry, no "plate-of-food pics" in this post). As you can tell from the background(s) I've had breakfast at NG and TL more than a little bit, so I figure myself an expert on the subject (a "smiley" would be inserted here if they were still allowed, lol).
Peace and Chicken Grease!
It was also announced that the famous PJ's restaurant has closed its doors today, also within a few days even Restaurant La Roca and Happy Bar will cease their activities (temporary?). Since last week, the RIU Mambo in Puerto Plata is closed.

Where is Susana's, I have never heard of it though I've probably walked by it a thousand times.Susanas is well hidden. Suppose you are walking in front of hotel Europa toward Classicos. Across the street still walking toward Classicos, you have Domino bar then 4 Roses bar. Walk another 30 steps and you will see a driveway going to the rear. Turn in that driveway and its about 30 yards on the right.
Good Chicken, beans, and rice for 300 pesos. But before U-turn in the driveway is Ollies new spot. He doesn't set up till late look for the white food truck in the lot. Pulled chicken sandwich, with melted cheese, tomatoe, lettuce, onions and yes hot sauce. All for 200 pesos. And Ollie speaks perfect english. Frannie you are there, please give us your review.

Heading to sosua on aug 4 for two weeks. Can anybody tell me if passions still has hot girls. Ad who would you guys recomend at passions. Thanks!Check out their web site for pictures. Don't know how current they are. Can anybody comment, or suggest specific chicas?
PJ's closed? WTF is going on down there? For real?There is just a lot of unemployment and business is very slow. I spoke to my sister in law this evening, who works at one of Sosua's best known restaurants, and she said that on Monday coming there is a general strike and protest March, which is a fairly common phenomenon here when people are pissed off and want a day off work. I will try to get some pictures on Monday. Not sure if the ladies of the night will be participating or if the bars and restaurants will be closed. I doubt it.

I will try to get some pictures on Monday. Not sure if the ladies of the night will be participating or if the bars and restaurants will be closed. I doubt it.Maybe I'm wrong but this seems a bit counter intuitive. If business is slow and businesses are closing and laying people off, why would folks be protesting for a day off? People talk about the so-called "crackdown" but high airfare prices and less flights to POP might be as much to blame, if not more, especially if you consider that businesses in POP are being affected as well. I'm interested to see what the local press says about the protest. Thanks for the update.
OK, I was able to find this which might make more sense:
Insisting on the call to strike.
Government and business organizations have expressed their opposition, but Foro Social Alternativo, a group best known for its organization of national protest strikes, said the call for a 24-hour nationwide strike on Mon. 11 July is on. The organization demands the government reduce electricity tariffs, increase public employee wages by 30, and change the petrol law that is pegged to petrol increases worldwide. It comes after Congress approved a taxation package that would generate an additional Road$9. 4 billion to the government so it can compensate its fiscal deficit.
Superintendent of banks Ng Cortinas estimates each day of strike costs the economy Road$1 billion. Luis Abinader, vice presidential candidate for the PRD, said the strike is a call by citizens to the government to stop wasteful spending of government resources.
This would be the first strike call for this year. Strike calls had lost their attraction after becoming so common, the general public began to ignore them.

Gentlemen! My apologies for taking so long to respond to some of yaw comments. Been trying to talk to God aka Jackson the past few days about why my last post was flag but I guess Gods a busy man cus my prayers of a presidente chillin on a beach with a big titty dominicana sitting on my lap nor questions about specifically why my post was flag never got answered. In any case I'm going to repost my last post and hope that God see that I wasn't argumentive at all to anyone and hopefully he doesn't strike me down for a sin that I didn't commit.
Manizales911,
No doubt the make it rain crowd does exist and it's not goin anywhere no time soon. I see it all the time here in Vegas where people from all races, and culture come to the club spend 10 thousand dollars on a table and start throwing money in the air but just like anywhere I go when I see these catz make it rain I pay it no nevermind. Let them over pay for pussy and be the suckers. If they want to pretend like money isn't important then so be that but I like yourself know the value of a dollar and I be damn if I go and just throw it in the air just to impress some hoes. I rather spend my dollars on a broad getting on her knees serving me while I'm in my Captain Morgan pose LOL.
And as far as the guy with the boombox I would've went up to dude and ask him nicely to turn off that boombox. If he refused then I would've cut it off myself and if dude wanted to bust a move then so be it BUT either way that boombox is turning off. In any case that should've been the owner or managers job to tell him to turn that bullshit off and stop being a jack ass.
Drlawyer,
Very good valid points! We all have to do our part, the little things like having home training etc to ensure the grown mans Disneyland we call Sosua endures. But we can't worry about the next mans action as well. Other then these young catz living out there long time fantasy of being in a rap videos no one has yet (knock on wood) said that they've done anything bad (I. E. Fighting, murder etc) other then having their pants sag halfway off their ass and playing music in an inappropriate time. If you see a kid doing something that's putting salt to the game pull him aside and talk to him. You'll be amazed how these young catz will listen.
Hell I have a couple young catz right now about to hit Sosua this upcoming week asking me about the dos and donts of mongering. And sure enough they wanted to rock and give away the ed hardys shirts, be flashy with the rings and watches while chillen in the VIP throwing money in the air 'BUT' after I told them that's not cool and explained to them the reasons they decided to tone it down. Now at first site you would think here we go again with some more make it rain fellas but these catz are nothing more then hardworking, good people that's been saving up there money for the past year and is ready to live out there fantasy. All was needed was some proper guidance so they don't put salt in the game. And in essence that's what this board is about. Knowledge on proper mongering. Cus I sure didn't learn threw osmosis. All the senior OG's that's been posting for years are the reason why my past couple trips been fun and enjoyable. I shudder to think how things would turn out in Sosua if it wasn't for this board. I probably be another Western Union statistic LOL.
AMEN! Its all about the money! 'AT ALL' times.

You have to brave it.My stomach is not that robust. I have eaten at Susana's maybe eight times, never a problem and reasonably priced. At PJ's twice and upset stomach both times. Third time I just sat and watched my friend eat. Yes, he felt bad afterwards, too. Good riddance to that dump.

Bottom line is Sosua is the place to do YOUR thing, whatever it is. You're not a prisoner in some club or bar, move on to the next.Are you talking about the Sosua in the DR, or some other Sosua? Because the Sosua in the DR is nothing more than a little 2 trick-pony town. Let's see, you basically have Classicos and Passions. What's left? Ok, if you're at Classico's then I suppose you can "move" to Latino's, or if you're at Passions then you can "move" to CMP, but then what? What's your next "move" because "they" are going to be there too. I guess you can troll some of the smaller bars that are either empty or are full of European men and NO women, or try something dominican like el flow and deal with the pistols and fist fights, or shoot for a haitan "rub and tug" at one of the smaller "salons" if even still open. Sounds Lovely, doesn't it?
You want the real bottom line? Here it is, those that travel to and stay in Sosua are more or less "prisoners" to the same clubs, pubs and *houses if they are looking for women. And the more people like you that run away from the problem, the more they take over the town. Which sadly, has already happened.

Aye yi yi! What's getting into everybody? All this negativity!
I can only relate my own positive experiences here. I'm not trying to sell Sosua to anybody, but I'm obviously not alone in looking foward to my next trip there.
Research this board, like I did, and you'll find a wealth of good info on how to get the most out of Sosua and the surrounding area.
Of course, if it's not for you, I'm sure you can find other options.
But don't cry in my beer, pal.

But don't cry in my beer, pal.No need to research anything as I've lived it all there. As you are older,"wifed-up" and (apparently) newer to Sosua than I, perhaps you can't fully appreciate the situation. Nevertheless, one man's vomit is another man's meal, so far be it for me to put anymore "tears in your beer", er ah pal.

I've spent shitloads of nights partying in El Flow and I've only seen one fight, a big one but only one. Shit happens in there no doubt but it's not quite the wild west. The bouncers have baseball bats hidden up in the roll up door and aren't afraid to use 'them, they don't let people misbehave in there. I love it there so please UkTraveler stay the fuck out and leave all the fun for me.

I never knew it was named Susana's until Mr. Gogo gave directions. I've also eaten at PJ's a lot because they were open real late and never got sick but their food was AWFUL.

Frannie you are there, please give us your review.I have eaten at Susannah's a few times. At one time a good friend of my sister in law worked there. The food is OK. I am not really crazy about Dominican food as I get to eat it every day at home! How many ways can you fix plantains, chicken, beans, and rice?
The trouble with the Dominican restaurants is that the food is cheap enough, but it is just school cafeteria food cooked up in large batches without much attention to any kind of sublety in flavor or texture. As I am a pretty good cook myself I tend to think about how dishes in restaurants could be improved.
Actually I quite like the German restaurants of which there are plenty in Sosua with some good dishes on the menu. Had spicy meatballs and potato salad tonight. Anybody could make it, but it hit the spot.
I also like the excellent bread that is available from the German bakeries in Sosua, which you can find at the large Playero supermercado.

But don't cry in my beer, pal.I agree. Sosua has quite a lot to offer other than chica bars, including a beach, diving, fishing expeditions, tours, a variety of accommodations, a wide selection of restaurants. You can find a different attractive woman to sleep with every night if you wish or get a girl for the week, or sample lots of different flavor of sex. Like many things, mongering can get boring very quickly if you overdo it. Like any place, to some extent Sosua is what you make it.

Casa Valeria has an excellent German cook, and like you say it digest's well. I was a cook in the Navy, so how food digest's say's alot to me. Dominican food is very bland and basic. I never understood people who say it's great. Their is an older Cuban guy in my neighbor hood, that I alway's have cook for me if I'm not feeling well. I don't know if it's the spice's or what, but I alway's feel better when I eat it.

Your"Girl for a week" quote. It's not as prevalent as before. Maybe because the girl's don't feel comfortable walking around during the day. Maybe it's the ex Brazil guy's who just want a quickie and not a date. Maybe the girl's feel they can make more money doing hourly rates. Maybe it's because guy's now don't care about learning the language or culture.
Before girl's would lock in for your whole trip regardless of how much you were paying initially, because they didn't want to share your deniro. Monger's and chica's walking around holding hand's. Guy's going to the airport lovesick and crying, going to Western union getting the Gold card. Meeting the family. Girl's trying to get you to go bareback to show their commitment. Sosua is buisiness and fast money now. Girl's from outter town's aren't getting dressed up to find a boyfriend at Classico's. Just pro chica's looking for a fast trick. Fake love was the norm before.

The only reason I raised it is because its the only Dominican food that I feel comfortable with on the strip so its a convenient way to eat comida criolla, which I love but admit its not the best at Susana's, and also a good way to meet random chicas eating there at lunch time, and also support a local Dominican business, which I like to do when I'm in Sosua.
There is another similar place by the colmado but I don't feel comfortable with that place, although I've heard from chicas that the food is cheaper. Food is something that I'm careful about in the DR cause one bad meal can ruin a trip, and I've had friends that have spent several days with "the runs" while on vacation, which is not fun.
I've attached a stock foto for newbies that may be trying to find Susana.

Maybe it's the ex Brazil guy's who just want a quickie and not a date. Maybe the girl's feel they can make more money doing hourly rates. Maybe it's because guy's now don't care about learning the language or culture.
Before girl's would lock in for your whole trip regardless of how much you were paying initially, because they didn't want to share your deniro. Monger's and chica's walking around holding hand's. Guy's going to the airport lovesick and crying, going to Western union getting the Gold card. Meeting the family. Girl's trying to get you to go bareback to show their commitment. Sosua is buisiness and fast money now. Girl's from outter town's aren't getting dressed up to find a boyfriend at Classico's. Just pro chica's looking for a fast trick. Fake love was the norm before.Yes you are right on the money concerning girls trying to get you to go bareback. This has happened to me in almost every country that I have visited. This trick has worked well as I have repeated with these girls many times. The main factor is now that you have barebacked them you are not free (in their eyes) to take other girls. Funny in that your point on this matter is never really talked about on ISG. There are many warnings on (take cabs don't walk, Guard your drink, don't wear gold chains, etc.) , but this warning of the bareback trick is IMHO more important that most of the others.
Keep up the good work, and maybe I'll see you in Sept. In MDE. I'm dying to return to Sosua, but Spirit will not use POP. The Santiago connection just does not work for me. I guess I'm a spoiled Monger.

Possibly the novio seeking girls are more inclined to target local residents than casual visitors.
I will post more on this topic in a week or two, but at the present time reasons of confidentiality are a factor.
DAMAGE:
70 pesos for entrance.
110 pesos for her drink.
110 pesos for one hour in hotel.
300 pesos for her propina-
Converted, this is about $150. I'm gettin the same thing in Sosua for $27. Any doubts on a major reason for leaving BA?

The fact of the matter is, there are dozens of Privados in BA where a perfectly nice roll in the sack can be had for 100 pesos. Or under $30 US. Even a top drawer experience shouldn't run more than 300 pesos, which is around $80 US And in BA, you can also get a superb steak dinner for under $15 US all over the place, and you're in one of the more cosmopolitan cities on the planet, not a shithole dump like Sosua. Other than beach, and proximity to the USA, Sosua has nothing on Buenos Aires, and it's silly to claim otherwise.

SIM cards are cheap to toss and replace. It's only in a little tiny backwater like Sosua where there are only a few venues right near each other, and everyone knows everyone else's business that the chicas can actually get their hooks into you and keep you from playing the rest of the field.

Actually I quite like the German restaurants of which there are plenty in Sosua with some good dishes on the menu. Had spicy meatballs and potato salad tonight. Anybody could make it, but it hit the spot.
I also like the excellent bread that is available from the German bakeries in Sosua, which you can find at the large Playero supermercado.Speaking of German places, I would love to have a Schokolade croissant with a cup of capuccino for breakfast at a genuine German bakery. It would make my day.
On another note, This Susanna's seem to be an interesting meeting point. As someone on the forum said it, to learn about creole food which would be true for me. At least for once and then to support a viable local business. The fact that chicas congregate there, could be the other draw.
and you're in one of the more cosmopolitan cities on the planetProve your claims, and I'll return on the next plane to my home of 6 years. Strange, I never met you there. We will meet and enjoy the opera, symphony, plays in Spanish, art shows, jazz, soccer, parks, mas. Are you related to Jackson? And dine on beef and Malbec wine.
No need to research anything as I've lived it all there. As you are older,"wifed-up" and (apparently) newer to Sosua than I, perhaps you can't fully appreciate the situation. Nevertheless, one man's vomit is another man's meal, so far be it for me to put anymore "tears in your beer", er ah pal."One man's vomit is another man's meal"?
Yuk! Maybe it should be one man's junk is another man's treasure?
I may be wifed up, but I'm always looking at Sosua through a mongers eye, specially since I've been down with my single buddy the last three times, and we hang out on the main drag at night. He's never seen the "old" Sosua, and thinks it's great. Novia brings in a couple of out of towners to meet him, and he has Classicos as a fallback.
But we all know its not what it used to be. There used to be a freshness, an excictement, a real vibe in the air, with new chicas rolling through in waves, newbies gigling with their amigas, not quite sure of themselves, as they tested their pussy power for the first time as pros. Now you see mostly seasoned pros.
But old Sosua didn't disappear, it just dispersed, and the spirit is still alive and well in the good old DR. A couple of weekdays in Boca, and the weekend in Sosua would still do it for me.

Any thoughts on the difference in chica quality and numbers in Sosua vs Boca Chica these days. I haven't been to BC in years.This was the same question I had. Haven't been to BC in years either (like 10) and was recently looking at some of the current pics on DR1 of the "Boathouse". Wow, it looks nothing like it was when I was there. If nothing else, the proximity to SD makes this a definite consideration.
Any thoughts on the difference in chica quality and numbers in Sosua vs Boca Chica these days. I haven't been to BC in years.I was in Boca Chica, for about two weeks, in June. I will post some reports when I have the time (now that this topic is brought up I will start posting this weekend). Sosua still has better looking chicas. One gets tired, real fast, of the lack of quality chicas in Bocas Chica (maybe I was there during the wrong part of the year?). I would not recommend more than four days there (and even this is too long). I noticed more casas in Boca Chica and if you are willing to overpay than you will get better quality than the chicas in the streets. Greater police presence, with Politur and Policia Nacional, constantly monitoring the strip. More pickpockets, hustlers, and even younger action. Again, I will start posting on the Boca Chica thread some of my experiences. Again, Sosua still has the better action.

Sit in front of Coca Playa Hotel [ check the google map, I had the webmaster correct the name of the hotel] in beach chair. The girls have to walk right past you and its not like they say no. The girls are mostly from Santo Domingo.
All giddy and stuff about hitting Blackbeards! TbcWe were really looking forward to reading about Kiti's adventures at Blackbeard's.
But the report never seemed to make it there. Kitie, can you take us there?
Any thoughts on the difference in chica quality and numbers in Sosua vs Boca Chica these days. I haven't been to BC in years.While I've travelled all over DR, I've only seen Monger Disnyland in Boca and Sosua.
I was in Boca in March from Tuesday to Friday, and I don't know whether it was because I was new, but I found it as intoxicating as my first trip to Sosua. They had closed off Duarte to traffic and it was party time. There were lots of seriously beautiful chicas and only a few mongers. Some chicas we met had moved down there as a result of the hassle in Sosua, but were complaining about the lack of gringos.
That's not my problem, I thought, and made a mental note to put Boca on a future solo trip, if I ever got the chance.

We will meet and enjoy the opera, symphony, plays in Spanish, art shows, jazz, soccer, parks, mas. Are you related to Jackson? And dine on beef and Malbec wine.I was in BsAs in March of 2009. So yes, it was a bit more than 2 years ago. I rented an apartment for a week that was on Corrientes, between Callao and Riobamba. About 2 blocks from the apartment I rented, on Corrientes and Junin, there was a small neighborhood Parilla that opened up about 8 PM every night except Sunday. It looked like a real hole in the wall, but the smell emanating from his woodfired oven was sublime as you walked down the block. At the time, it cost 40 Pesos for about a 300 gram cut of steak, a small salad, and a soft drink. He grilled right in front of you on his wood-fired oven, and his wife handled all of the serving, and preparing the salad and drinks. Yes, $15 US did not include a malbec, but it did include a coke and a small salad. I liked the place and it's value proposition so much, I ate dinner there 4 times in the week that I stayed in that neighborhood. While I don't remember which Privados that I mainly frequented, there were several in the general area between where I was staying and the Plaza de Republica, or possibly slightly past the Plaze down to say, Maipu or Esmeralda, typically between Corrientes and Lavalle or Sarmiento. At the time, I was typically paying 60-70 pesos for a half hour, or 90-100 pesos for an hour. At that time, the Peso was at slightly over 3. 2 to a dollar Now, it's over 4 to a dollar.
Now if you want to tell me that prices have doubled or more in the last 2 years,. In USA dollar terms, I won't argue, because I haven't been there since the first half of 2009, but I was paying $20-25 US for most of my sessions in privados in Buenos Aires '09.
And no, I have no affiliation with Jackson, other than that I use his websites.

StradA Pro massage, no sex, = Keka, $14. Many others for $14 offer minimal massage, HJ's and BBBJ's. There is 1 lousy strip club= Bananas = not advised! Better places offering in-house sex are Carribean Men's Paradise and Passion's (watch out for being short-changed here). The best places for fine, young chicas after 10pm are: Merengue Bar, Classico's disco and Latino's. I'll show you guys around.

Better places offering in-house sex are . Passion's (watch out for being short-changed here).I am no great enthusiast for Passions, especially in its new and sterile format with hiked pricing. But I think it is fair to say that if Sidney was short-changed then he is one of the relatively few that have been. I have read hundreds of reports from customers of Passions over the past six years and it is something that I don't remember having come up before. Short-changing is widespread across the DR from stores, taxis, restaurants, etc, often by intent, but sometimes through incompetence. The people are generally innumerate and have to use calculators to work out (for example) ten items@20 Pesos each. I have even had too much change given back on occasion. So "watch out for being short-changed" everywhere you go! Passions is no worse than anywhere else, perhaps better.
I have read plenty of posts complaining about Passions (usually about poor service given by their over-priced putas) so I am sure if anyone else had that problem they would not have hesitated to report it. Stressing over that 200 pesos (?) will shorten your life, Sidney. Guys of our age need to chill out!

With the cash register thief! My great life continues irregardless of Passion's suk-ups! I find them rather amusing!There is a chronic shortage of small bills here and people will do anything to avoid having to give up their valuable change so as to make change for you. They will pretend they have no change and hope you will tell them to forget it. This is one reason why I hardly ever use a motoconcho. 30 pesos for a short ride is fine and convenient, but when you have to have negotiations every single time over a 100 peso bill it is not convenient, and frankly I prefer to walk and save the aggravation and the money.
If it is a chica or a massage parlor, or La Passion, here is what you do. You tell them that since they do not have change, you will go away with your money, visit a change bureau, and return later with the correct change. They will suddenly, miraculously find a way to change your 500 peso bill.
They hope that you will hand over a 500 pesos bill when you owe 400 pesos and that you will give them an extra 100 propina if there is no change available and you can't be bothered to wait. Don't let them do it.
As CP says, Dominicans are not very good at mental arithmetic, and you may have to tell them how much is the correct change if they cannot calculate it correctly.

Or visit very frequently? Why don't you do what I do and ask for smaller bills and / or coins at the teller counter? Very occasionally they might run short on one denomination so I just take another. I never run out of change these days once I learned how easy that is.

I never run out of change these days once I learned how easy that is.The other thing that you do is use your largest bills at the supermarket and like places. Even if I have all the change I need, I will hand the supermarket my absolutely largest bills. I do this even if I only buy a bottle of soda or bag of chips. In fact, I may later give the chips to a little person outside the supermarket. This goes in ANY country, including home. When the cashier asks if I have anything smaller, I say no. I put the bills in a buttoned pocket after counting it. Later, while in a bathroom or private place, I rearrange my bills and move money to and from the money belt. This has helped me manage my money.

Some casinos will also give you cash like an ATM machine at the caja (cashier window) , I was told the fee is something like $4US for every $100US. I didn't try it yet at the casino, but if my thieving bank Chase, doesn't charge an additional $5US on a casino transaction, then getting money from a cashier at a casino in DR, might be cheaper than using an ATM machine.

Instead of using your bank card in the ATM, draw cash at the teller counter. You will need your passport. I typically draw 15, 000 because I don't want to be walking round with too much cash, but if you only draw 10, 000 they groan and ask you to use the ATM next time. You have to sign a chit. I always ask for 1000 in 100s. 1000 in 50s and (very occasionally) 1000 in coins. Now I never run out of change and this saves me money in the long run. Also it's safer to draw cash inside the bank and stash it away in your inside or zipped pockets than doing it on the street.

Not sure where you are getting the $5 from. I did leave the DR 3 weeks ago so it could have changed since I left but I don't think so.

Stressing over that 200 pesos (?) will shorten your life, Sidney. Guys of our age need to chill out!
Sidney's experience is not unique and I have made a complaint to management about being shortchanged in Passions. From my experience this happens when management is not paying attention or is not around. I do not see it often, though, but it does happen.
Guys go to a place, they drink, and sometimes, as stated earlier, they are shortchanged intentionally. Other times, as already stated, the chicas do not know how to count. Still other times the guys are plain drunk and do not recall how much they gave or got back. Sometimes it is hard to tell which.
As a rule of thumb whenever I have large bills I use them during the day to buy and eat food and at night I use small bills to buy drinks. While one is drinking, being distracted by the chicas, and interacting at nighttime (or on a dark dance floor) it is easy for one to make mistakes or be cheated out of money! I use small bills so if mistakes are made the loss will not be that great.
I remember while at Merengue Bar I gave one of the chicas money for a beer. I had asked her several times for my change and she said that she would give it to me. Another monger said for me not to worry because she would eventually come back with my money since Merengue bar was pretty honest. She continued serving others, while ignoring me, and the only way I was able to get my money back was by complaining to the head cashier (who happened to be a friend of mine!). It looked like the typical game of not giving back the change and it being so little that I would simply walk away and she would pocket it as a tip!
Sydney needs to complain since, like the experience just mentioned, one learns to lessen if not totally avoid losing money unnecessarily!
I remember while at Blackbeards one of the complaints was that the chicas were skimming money off the top. If they owed you 60 DOP they would only pay you 50 DOP, if not less. Hey, these chicas know when the guys are paying attention or not; when they are drunk or not. 10 DOP here. 20 DOP there (sometimes much more) , and it all adds up! The typical guy would not know since the sum lost is so low. Blackbeards has had problems with chicas stealing but they always try to address this. If Blackbeards did not have these problems they would not need to fine the chica, suspend, or even expel them from the place! Overall, though, Blackbeards is a good place and I am not trying to knock it down since they do try to create a good environment for the monger!
The truth of the matter is that these chicas come from bad neighborhoods so what does one expect. They are not all thieves but the incidence of thievery is much higher.
As for receiving too much change I find that to be even more rare than being cheated out of money in Passions! The people in that country might not know how to count but, heck, giving too much change back! I have yet to read a report on that topic. Anyone out there who knows of a place in the DR that gives too much change back can you please PM me. That is a place I would like to give all my business to!

The ATM's charge 112 pesos for withdrawals on foreign accounts, that is $ 3. Not sure where you are getting the $5 from. I did leave the DR 3 weeks ago so it could have changed since I left but I don't think so.Therefore is it more advantageous to change money at "casa de cambio" or to withdrawal money from ATM?
Therefore is it more advantageous to change money at "casa de cambio" or to withdrawal money from ATM?If you don't mind walking around with a thousand or more dollars or euros, you will not lose money by exchanging euros or dollars to pesos at a cambio. For me, ATM fees when I withdraw money in DR is $10US per transaction. If you have a Scotia Bank account or a Bank of America account, you can save on the fees by using Scotia Bank ATM machines.
Some guys use Charles Scwab or Paypal cards to save on some fees. Some guys open bank accounts in DR and use the card from their DR bank to save on fees.
The ATM's charge 112 pesos for withdrawals on foreign accounts, that is $ 3. Not sure where you are getting the $5 from. I did leave the DR 3 weeks ago so it could have changed since I left but I don't think so.I stand corrected the slightly less thieving incompetent DR banks are receiving a little over $3US per ATM withdrawal and the more greedy thieving Chase Bank is receiving $5US per ATM withdrawal in the DR (for me $8US per transaction not $10). Would be nice if Chase could teach the DR banks how to program their ATM machines to function in multiple languages. Chase ATM machines in New York have the option to chose from about 8 different languages. In the DR, most ATM machines will not give you cash if you choose English, incompetence. The US taxpayer bailed out the big banks and the financial industry (US taxpayer assumed all the burden and guys who run the banks reaped all the reward, and this is how the favor is returned by charging outrageous fees and the politicians do nothing to protect the consumer, call chase and you will speak with someone at a call center in India).
There is a reason my DR nickname is "tacaño." Basically, this is me in the DR:
http://youtu.be/KNQRqAoT-2cWe must be related since I've had taxi drivers, chicas, souvenir dealers, and eveyone else in between call me "tacaño." The only people who call me this are those who are trying to hustle me out of money (and do not succeed!). I remember I was once at the beach and I asked one of the workers at the booth the cost of a drink. She told me and I said that it was much too expensive. She had the audacity to say that that was the price of the same drink in New York. I had to remind her that we were not in New York but in the Dominican Republic! An old ruse, expecting tourists not to know the prices, since many tourist have only as a reference point the cost in their own country!
Also, and it has happened to me, you order a drink, and the chica at the booth will get you (and herself!) a drink; expecting you to pay for her. I am careful about getting anything along the beach.
Then there is the chica who hangs out with you. You ask her what she wants and she orders the most expensive drink in the house. I try to be weary about this and suggest a presidente so the chica does not drive me bankrupt.
My favorite one is when a drink has one price at Merengue Bar, a higher price at Classicos, and two different prices at the bars at the opposite ends of Classicos! We had to complain to the bouncer about this.

Good and fair-minded survey of the whole issue, Boriman.
Sidney's experience is not unique and I have made a complaint to management about being shortchanged in Passions. From my experience this happens when management is not paying attention or is not around. I do not see it often, though, but it does happen.!Of course it wouldn't be unique. It can happen anywhere, even in Walmart. The reason I suggested it might be less common at Passions than in other working girl bars is that management does "pay attention" more there than in most other places because it is run by a European, not by a local. As I say, I hold no brief for Passions and if is closed down so we could all enjoy the same chicas at half the price I wouldn't be complaining (but that ain't going to happen!)
Sydney needs to complain since, like the experience just mentioned, one learns to lessen if not totally avoid losing money unnecessarily!Yes, he was right to complain, and right to report it in a post, just as you did. (But then forget about it!). That way we can see if a consensus builds up. If we get a slew of posts saying that they were short-changed at Passions I might believe there is a general problem. But if that happened, Peter, who reads all the boards, would jump on the problem before it got out of hand. He is not some dumbass Dominican.
As for receiving too much change I find that to be even more rare than being cheated out of money in Passions! The people in that country might not know how to count but, heck, giving too much change back! I have yet to read a report on that topic. Anyone out there who knows of a place in the DR that gives too much change back can you please PM me. That is a place I would like to give all my business to!I have given surplus change back a couple of times, but in normal local shops rather than in tourist bars. Although once, surprisingly, was at the ticket window for Caribe Tours. In the humidity here notes can get stuck together. I mentioned that simply to illustrate that some short-changing might be down to innumeracy among honest people rather than intentional cheating. You are not going to find repeated instances of it at any one place, sorry!

The inflation of the last 2 years is incomprehensible! The 3rd highest in the world, only behind Zambia and Venezuela!I just did a Google search and inflation here is less than 6, I have been living here for 2 years and I my pension income hasn't changed much insofar as my dollars to pesos are stretched. There is no income tax on moderate incomes, just a VAT tax. The government puts a lid on wages so working classes and poor are tense because of rising prices and stagnant wages. Sound familiiar? The same is happening in the USA.

I think 6% p.a. Sounds about right for the DR, but that is unacceptable economically. Usual guidelines in normal times are 2 to 3 per cent but these are not normal times so inflation should be nearer 0%.
Inflation at 6% means prices increase by over a third in five years and there is no way wages in the DR are keeping pace with that. Many have gone down. (Not in the same jobs, but where people have lost their jobs and been forced to take a new one elsewhere at less money).
Still, so long as the people have baseball, television and music, and can sit in their doorways staring into space all day they will go on voting for the same gang of crooks as they have for decades. The party labels don't mean shit because they are all inter-married and co-operate on the same rackets, and the parties have no real programs or ideology anyway.
I don't know fellas. If I don't like a set price for something, I just move on. Why complain to a Dominican about a Dominican because you want to argue about their pricing structure. Protest by taking your money else where.You give good advice. I now ask for the price up front when I am upstairs at Classicos, to avoid being overcharged. I did not order the New York priced drink and now do not give that chica business. Everytime she sees me on the beach she recalls what happened and tries to play it off. My opinion is that if one cheats me I'll simply not go there again. They cheat me the first time shame on them. They cheat me the second time shame on me (I should have known better).

When you go into an establishment and the girls are rushing you, and everything is happening fast, ask for a menu. It gives you time to slow everything down and allows you to figure out if you should be there. If they continue to rush you and don't have a menu, then maybe you shouldn't be there.

If there is not one available then of course I ask the price of what I am interested in. 8 years ago me and two wingmen were in a cabaret in Nice, France. As soon as we walked in they ordered drinks, while I asked for a menu. As they started to sip their drinks I showed them that the cheapest thing in the menu was water at 35 euro. The price of their drinks was 40 euro each.
A Pro massage, no sex, = Keka, $14. Many others for $14 offer minimal massage, HJ's and BBBJ's. There is 1 lousy strip club= Bananas = not advised! Better places offering in-house sex are Carribean Men's Paradise and Passion's (watch out for being short-changed here). The best places for fine, young chicas after 10pm are: Merengue Bar, Classico's disco and Latino's. I'll show you guys around.Thanks Sidney. Will stay at Hotel Voramar just like you have recommended? $14 for pro massage is good price, where is Keka located? If you are in Sosua or near by, definitely, I buy you a beer! PM me if you want to.

ThanksSosua generally has been the town in the DR with the highest percentage of freelancers that could be found in a very small area. Boca Chica would be second. Puerto Plata has Blackbeards which has set prices and Puerto Plata has El Bohen and Crystals, which I have read are not cheap. I have read in the past that Puerto Plata had some bars where freelancers hung out, but those bars could be hit or miss.
With freelancers you have the ability to negotiate prices, some freelancers will try to rip off guys.

Hi, in Sosua there is much tourism and may be it has become a little more expensive than other small towns like Puerto Plata, La Romana, etc. I mean for living and fucking. Some info please? ThanksI can only speak for Puerto Plata. Rents here are mabe 20% to 25% cheaper than similar places in Sosúa but it is hard to compare the intangibles. There are fewer gringo style dwellings here and you don't have the advantage of lots of tourist type bars, restaurants and hotels concentrated within a small area if that is what you want (I don't). The supermarkets are maybe 5% cheaper here for the same goods. Impossible to compare for fucking because there is not the same selection of middle-price chicas immediately on offer that there is in Sosúa. You have Cristal and El Bohen at the expensive end of the range and many cheap Dominican bars where you have to hunt for diamonds in the rough, and often there are none.
I wouldn't have thought La Romana would be cheap because that is where a lot of wealthy Americans holiday.
All other towns (outside SD and Santiago) are going to be a lot cheaper for rents, a bit cheaper for food, and much cheaper for putas, but you then have to consider the expenses of finding your way around and being safe.

She says (todo via estoy enbarazada solo tengo 6 meses)If you want the experience with a preggie I guess this would be a good opportunity.
The common sense advice is to just cut her loose since you do not want to be caught by her novio. On the other hand maybe he skipped town and she could now seriously use the money! Cutting her loose will avoid all this guesswork!
I could be wrong because there are more experienced people on this board but this looks like an opportunity to milk you for more money ('. Mi bambino vas a necesitar leche ['my bambino will need milk]. Gasto de medico para mi nuevo bambino [medical expenses for my newborn baby]). Also, if you did not know until know that she had a husband or another boyfriend than she has been lying to you all along (which is expected! It is quite obvious, to her at least, that you are not the only fish in the sea!)
Also, if she is pregnant she cannot work the streets like she normally would. She is not making the amount of money she would usually earn.
I recall every time I went to DR I would bump into this chica named China. One time as we were coming out of the Europa some big Dominican guy pulls up on a motoconcho. He started yelling at her as I glued myself to the wall, saying nothing. The guy was pretty cool in that he did not once bother me. After this I did the chica maybe once and afterwards did not want to bother with her since I did not want to deal with the headache of her man. Sometimes it is difficult to detach ourselves but we have to sometimes because the situation has become more complicated. One feels sorry but these chicas will survive, with or without you. It is quite obvious that even if you are Western Unioning them they will still not depend just on you for money (just in case you cut the supply line)
Again, common sense advice is to cut her loose but if you do not it is understandable. Sometimes it is hard just to let a good thing go. Even with the best of us as detached as we want to be every so often we become attached to someone. I hope this advice helps and I have not offended you in any way!

She says (todo via estoy enbarazada solo tengo 6 meses)Long time ago, I fucked a half colombian, half dominican stripper in new york, who was about 6 months pregnant. It was fun, titties were big from the pregnancy. I read somewhere that some doctors suggest a pregnant woman should have sex, to help keep the vagina limber, which would help during a vaginal birth.
I remember meeting some chicas in Sosua a long time ago and one of them was pregnant and they were joking that if I went with the pregnant one, it would be like having sex with two people. They were vulgar in the jokes they were making.
In the DR, with so many chicas available, not sure if I would want to be hanging out with a six month pregnant chica for all of my vacation. Morning sickness and vomiting, some pregnant women get. People who see you with her, will assume you are the father. If you want to pop her a few times, fine, but to spend your whole vacation with her, I don't think I would do it, unless she was some magical lay.

Hi, I'd like to know if October low-season or high-season for Sosua. Are prices for fucking the same during all year?
ThanksOctober is neither high nor low season. In all countries October is a school month, so families are not on the move much. From the point of view of weather, it is still hot in October in the DR, but the weather is unpredictable as this is the tail end of the hurricane season and it is possible to see tropical storms and heavy rains or fine sunny weather.
You do not understand at all. Fucking is not a commodity like oil that undergoes seasonal price variations. If you go to a place iwth a set price menu like La Passion, the prices do not adjust seasonally.
The amount that you might pay for sex with a freelancer would depend on numerous factors like the attractiveness of the girl, how attractive she finds you, what her financial needs are, how good a negotiator she is, how good a negotiator you are, and a host of other factors. You are dealing with individual human beings selling their only commercial asset for survival. Any theoretical price variations related to seasonality will be swamped by other factors. If this is too hard to understand, you may be better off staying at home.
CUT HER LOOSE. The only one who stands to lose under these circumstances is you.For seiko about the pregnant girl?
How many months? I have fucked pregnant girls and have absolutely enjoyed it.
But you may be better to cut her loose as her life is much more complicated now
And yes you can lose in so many ways with her situation.
But if she is good and not too many months pregnant and you know the risks with her life? And situation?
Then it might be fun to try it out?
...Now this is my problem, I have never had sex with pragnent women, will sex be enjoyeble or just forgget about it and move on to other chica? She says (todo via estoy enbarazada solo tengo 6 meses)One of my most memorable DR experiences was back in early 2005, when I let a good friend sleep over because she was having family problems. She was about 7-months pregnant at the time. Because it was a studio apartment, with only one bed, we shared it. I wasn't that interested in banging a 19-year old pregnant Dominican girl, but I knew my "morning wood" might say something different, so I created a sleeping arrangement. She could stay the night free of charge, no freebies for me (excluding gropes grabs and hugs) and if I got horny and hard, I would pay her for her services ($RD500 for f/s and $RD300 for a blow-job, CIM). Well, for 5-7 mornings straight, she would either wake-up with a dick in her mouth or a dick in her pussy (spoon and/or doggie). Afterward, I would make breakfast, then we would go our separate ways until about 11pm every evening.
I wouldn't want to spend a whole day with a pregnant woman, but all my sleeping nights and waking mornings, HELL YES!!!!!
BTW, I briefly refer to the arrangement with Yennifer in this trip report. New Years in Boca (Great Day! a.k.a. the Gap-Toothed Girl) (http://www.internationalsexguide.info/forum/showthread.php?501-Boca-Chica&p=338429&viewfull=1#post338429)

What happens on alternate Thursdays?Western Union day!
Reading your writing I understand in October mongering is better at Santo Domingo instead of Sosua. Is it right? Could Sousa be disappointing in October?The only time mongering might be a little light is during the holidays when chicas spend time with their families, mongering is otherwise a 365/24/7 activity. Oh, rain sometimes slows down the flow of pussy since chicas generally frown upon wetting their hair. But a propina for the salon works, and it that does not mean an extra $RD2, 000!

Helpmann,
Jennifer looks SOOO familiar. Looks like a pregnant girl I met at a church picnic in Costambar. She was staying with her aunt and uncle. Very nice girl.
The only advantage now that she's pregnant is that you can go bareback and cum in her.The only advantage is not knocking a prego up, otherwise BUYER BEWARE as always!
Thanks for all responses. She wants to take 8hour bus ride to come and stay with me in boca chica but I have to cut her loose and let the hunt begin for new vacation chica.Nice looking chica.
There was a discussion a while back about renting motorcycles in DR. I wouldn't do it. I had one one dog run into the side of the car, that dog hurt his leg and continued his mad dash to get to the other side of the road. I have had dogs at night try to attack my car and chase after my car and I have seen dogs chase after and try to bite people on scooters and motorcycles. Various different types of debris on some roads, some stuff that falls off other vehicles. I got two flat tires on the same day my last trip, v shaped gouges in the sidewalls, the tires seemed liked they could not be repaired. Driving a motorcycle, usually no spare tire or tools, with the numerous road hazards in DR, I would not do it.
Apart from beautiful weather, a fine beach, charming lanes lined with fragrant poinciana, jacaranda, bougainvillea, and hibiscus, fine restaurants with a variety of cuisines, German bakeries, bars with native Dominican musics such as bachata and merengue, cheap but comfortable hotels, Sosua really doesn't have much going for it these days compared to the joys of suburbia in the US, Walmart and Oprah Winfrey reruns.
Except for the nymphomaniacs.
My amigo tempocorto now has his boots on the ground in Sosua, or maybe that should be his pants on the ground, and after I introduced him to his first four or five women, and negotiated his first 800 peso fuckfest, he has picked up Spanish like a native and is now scouting his own talent at a prodigious rate, with a steady stream of Internet cuties reporting for duty at his lodgings.
Badoo. Com seems to play host to numerous small business located in the Dominican Republic in which whole families of young women provide private massage therapy to jaded visitors and tourists for a modest copayment.
Even for an old codger like me, it is alarming how difficult it is to avoid sexual excess. For example, this afternoon after 45 minutes of vigorous lap swimming I was just lying down on my sofa to recuperate, when there is a tap on the door and one of the most delightful and beautful women I have EVER met insists on putting me through a course of exercises that include tongue wrestling and pelvic thrusting, before continuing on her milk round happily clutching two freshly printed 500 peso bills. Fortunately I didn't have to tell her that I had barely recovered from a workout the previous night with a young female private trainer who conveniently resides in the same complex as myself and had decided to stop by for a loosener before dancing the night away at a local disco.
You can run, but you can't hide, and they will eventually hunt you down and strip away your defenses. This is why so many of the male residents of Sosua appear decrepit and exhausted and have a bottle of Presidente permanently available so that the smell of beer can mask the overwhelming scent of heated pussy and burning latex that hangs over the town like a pall of smoke and can easily cause PTSD flashbacks to the vulnerable.
I strongly recommend that ISG members stay away from this town, because of the dangers of becoming addicted to pleasure. It is far healthier to stay at home, watch some Internet porn, and use the hand of choice in the appropriate location than to waste your money in this hellhole where you may be at the mercy of sex hungry young women.

What a lot of BS, Frannie. Everyone knows Sosúa is dead. We have been assured of that by experts, some of whom have spend as long as two weeks there without finding any fairly-priced pussy and without even setting eyes on a Haitian.
What a lot of BS, Frannie. Everyone knows Sosúa is dead.

A small laser beam flashlight such as can be obtained at Walmart for about $2 may be a useful piece of equipment under the circumstances.
I have to admit that the 800 peso pussy may have been towards the end of its depreciable life, but it was reported to me that it was still very serviceable and appeared to have been regularly lubricated and maintained. Yesterday I was able to examine a 19 year old 1000 peso Haitian export model that appeared to be in original mint condition and the owner confirmed that it had only been used for joyriding and not for delivery purposes.

Continue to scare away the masses, leaves more for me and you.

I find your post rather evasive! You have yet to answer key questions. Did she have a nice set of headlights? Was she like a small compact car with all the options or was she the size of an SUV? I assume that she is a front entry model and not one that allows rear entry? How were her shocks and did she absorb well the good bump and grind of the road?
Was she on automatic when you did her or did she have to handle you dickshift. Er. Ahh. I mean your stickshift? (excuse the original misspelling of the word! Believe me it was unintentional!). Did she purr like a kitten when you rode her or was her muffler backfiring everytime you revved up her engine?
Perhaps the actual "summary" eluded you, but when you're sober enough to drill down thru the lofty rhetoric and into the actual substance of what he wrote (such that it is) all you're left with is Badoo and his apt complex for any action.
Yeah, you guys are really getting over on us!
Signed, the scared massesI don't know. I think everything is moving to the Internet these days.
Here's an interesting story. A young lady I have spent some time with came to Sosua with a female friend and rented a room for a month in the hope of striking it rich. Both of them went two weeks before they were able to score a paid sex date. They were both cock a hoop and high fiving, if you will pardon the expression, when they finally scored. Both of them are quite attractive.
The interesting point, to me, was that she and the other girl had not known each other before, but had met on Facebook and decided to team up for the Big Sosua Adventure. The other girl who is 19 had been to Germany last November to visit a novio, but didn't like it due to the cold, lack of Dominicans, etc.
It was reported to me that Sunday night the disco was pretty busy and that there were five girls for every boy.
Actually I quite like the new Sosua. I was out tonight for a meal at an excellent Italian restaurant with a couple of companions and able to enjoy a leisurely dinner at a sidewalk table under the stars without once being solicited while eating. The beach was moderately busy on Sunday with many Dominican families picknicking and listening to bachata music and little overt evidence of the sex trade on show.
You can look at it from both sides. You have girls saying they can't find enough single male tourists, and you have some single male tourists saying they can't meet enough girls. There is no doubt that the tourism business overall is slow, but certainly if you are on the ground here, you will probably be more hunted than hunting.
My amigo, as well as calling up girls from Badoo, has been taking numbers at the disco at night, and then booty calling the next day with great success.
As far as prices. 1000 to 1200 pesos will nearly always do the trick. I did have one quote of 2000 pesos, but this was a rather attractive girl of 25 with no kids who states that she has never done sex with a foreigner before, and never for money, only with a couple of Dominican boyfriends, and has turned down many offers, but now will let me do the deed because she needs the money. Of course with these scenarios you never exactly know the truth of the matter, but she seems to have been candid in the discussions I have had with her. So far I have her in a holding pattern as there are many other options on the table involving established performers with a proven track record, and while the idea has its attractions, it might not be money well spent if she didn't feel good about what she was doing.
Apart from beautiful weather, a fine beach, charming lanes lined with fragrant poinciana, jacaranda, bougainvillea, and hibiscus, fine restaurants with a variety of cuisines, German bakeries, bars with native Dominican musics such as bachata and merengue, cheap but comfortable hotels, Sosua really doesn't have much going for it these days compared to the joys of suburbia in the US, Walmart and Oprah Winfrey reruns.

Signed, the scared massesI wouldn't down play the power of the internet whether it be DIA, Badoo, etc. I think we all got your point from your many posts that Sosua no longer has anything to offer to you. Ok, that's fine, move on to another location and stop worry about other's decisions. If Sosua is a bad choice for Mongering everyone will make their own opinion about that. Every locations have its pros & cons. We all realize that. Cheers!

I was just about to post the same thought. But I would include "The sky is falling UKtraveler" to the list. I will be back there for the 4th time within a year in August and I really hope there is a ounce of pussy left for this monger. Hell, I might have to cross the border to Haiti to get some ass, if so; so be it!

Any cuties?CMP sucks in my opinion, the girls aren't that great and they are extremely pushy. I was in La Passion a few times last week and they had a ton of girls early but on Friday by about 1:00 am they were almost "sold out". The talent quality was very very good, I don't pull from there often but my friends do.

And yes theres so much sex in Sosua, that both your left and right hands will be bored!Sosua might not be the same as in the old days but action is always to be had. When I was last there, around February, there was never a problem finding chicas (I did a report when I returned!).
While in Sosua I would sometimes return at about 6:30 in the morning and there was action still to be had at the late night club at the end of Clisante (if there was no action why would I be up so late at night!)
I found less beggars, less motoconchos harasssing me, less chicas bothering me, and it seemed much more pleasant. I loved the old days but the new days are not all that bad. I read all the reports about Sosua before going in February and expected a real struggle finding action but I still found chicas to mess with (this is not even counting Passions and CMP!). It might not be the glory days but, heck, it is also not a cemetery. Between the bars on Sosua, Passions, CMP, the cheap massage places with happy endings (Belkis, for example) , the chicas on the beach (if you cannot find any just ask the guy who rent you the chairs. He'll call some over) , and the chicas you spend time with who can call other chicas, there should never be a shortage. I was there for two weeks and half the time I found some chica action. The other half I spent doing everything else (drinking, eating, going to other towns, etc.). I will say that two weeks is much too long of a time to be in Sosua but I liked my stay there and regret coming back home.
I find much less action walking in the streets nowadays but the irony is that when I first arrived in Sosua, several months ago, the very first chica that I bumped into was at about 3:30 PM, in front of Latinos! She was walking with some cuties. I felt her friends were overcharging so I did not bother.
Rumors of Sosua's death have been greatly exagerrated!

Thanks for the reply, how do I copy and past for a google map with markings of best hotels, girl locations, and clubs, etc for Sosua and Santo Domingo. I just keep getting routes with no intel.With the google map on your computer screen, hit the "print screen" button on your keyboard. Then open microsoft paint (usually comes installed on most computers). Once paint is open, look at the toolbar, click "edit" then "paste".
You can write words or make markings on the google map you copied. You can then save it into JPEG file format and thereafter open it with a photo editing program, to crop out the parts you don't want.
To post on the ISG the pic can be no larger than 640 pixels by 640 pixels. I use microsoft office picture manager to resize photos. You can also right click over the pic, click properties, then details, then click "remove properties and personal information", select all, then ok.

Hi I am new to this site and I wanted to ask experienced members if they have had any problems posting pictures of people who did not know their pics were posted and complained about it. What I am saying is has it ever got back to anyone? I know this is probably the wrong way to send out a message but I wil figure it out later. Someone told me that another site named Takemebacktososua. Com which is brand new had the ability to hide pics from being seen from the DR. I have been told not to worry about it because everyone is anonymous and the web is so big it does not matter. I have not seen anyone talking about having a problem so I guess I am just being paranoid and any pic I post of someone here won't reveal my identity, right? I don't want a girl I like to bop me on the head the next time I see her.

Well, actually it is more like. I came, saw and lost!
Acknowledgments first: I have to formally thank Frannie – who was both extremely kind and generous with his time, advice and hand holding (actually even spoon-feeding my initial forays). I even discussed Toynbee and Gibbon with him not to speak of Jane Austen – an amazing coincidence. I also need to thank Charles Pooter (who I unfortunately could not meet during my short 6 night stay) for his critical and helpful comments at the planning phase.
Finally, I would like to thank and I do not know who (as I cannot find the report). Someone on this DR forum laid out a plan as to how to get contacts on the web prior to arrival and the modus operandi thereafter. Now, while I did amass a lot of such contacts – many came to see me from Puerto Plata.some of which worked wonderfully and some not, I do think it is perfectly okay not to have any game plan whatsoever –which probably is the beauty of the place.
Veni: I landed at Puerto Plata – rode a public taxi (driver +six passengers in a Toyota Corolla) along with Frannie who was kind enough to come to the airport to alleviate the beginner's blues. For 50 peso, I got a ride to Sosua and there on walked to the hotel. It was perfectly okay for me, even on a hot sunny summer day.
Stay: I stayed at a hotel called Romanoff. This is an apartment hotel. People can pay a little more for the apartments as compared to the room which is what I had. I also settled for a non-A / C room and indeed barring the late afternoons, the temperature was almost always pleasant with low humidity and with a fan going, I had no trouble sleeping.
I understand the hotel does not have a website but you should be able to google the contact details.
Chica- friendly: I see this coming out as a regular topic of concern. One afternoon, I was sitting outside chatting with a group of guys (English, Dutch, German, French Canadian, Italian and indeed Russian –the owner) and of all ages as we also watched games walking by. Personally, I enjoyed shooting the breeze with these guys in as many languages as chasing the women. I was speaking with the owner when my appointment (from the Disco contact) arrived. The owner, a 70 year old with an immaculate English accent, looked at me and said: 'well, I see that we will have to postpone our discussion for later', with a wink. Hopefully that tells you what the place is like in terms of the relaxed mood that prevails. It is a quiet place – no partying or bragging rights game. There are many long term residents who live in this quiet, tree covered / adorned apartments which are probably not as sleek as newly renovated properties but it did it for me (I am also a cheapskate!).
I paid $30 for the room per day and it was clean. I do want to warn you that if you fancy extra comfort or a glitzy environment, this is not it. I found it to be a place, which is extremely non-judgmental, clean with all the basic amenities we take for granted in the western world and very much a fraternal environment with respect for all. Located in a quiet street (City Hall is on the same street) with very little noise, I loved the idea of walking to Clissante.Main street – a 10 minutes walk perhaps to the Merengue bar, as I discovered avocado, mango, lime and numerous other fruit trees with fruits hanging, pointed out to me by a 20 year old who was very knowledgeable on these as she hailed from the country.
Vidi: This was my first trip to Sosua (and D. R) and so I did not know what to expect. Nonetheless, here is my impression:
1. The Main street – I liked it because it came across as quaint to me – tree lined, not much noise when I visited, one way and full of European restaurants. We dined at an Austrian place, and an Italian place. Food quality was excellent (I lived in EU for long and am used to the real European food). By the way, there is an Italian restaurant called Bologna. Which is as genuine as one can get. In addition to two dinners, I had a fine chocolate croissant and café con leche breakfast one morning –kindly offered by one newly made friend there.
2. Women on the street: Most restaurants had sun umbrellas out and eating in the evening was rather pleasant as we saw the world go by. Close to Latino's or Merenque, there were indeed women but I was neither solicited nor harassed. I found it pleasant in that if I wished to, I could approach anyone but not the other way around which is what I like personally. Prior to getting there, I was worried that this is a place like the Reeparbahn in Hamburg. Garish neon signs and noise. I was pleasantly surprised to see an almost European style, tree lined, not very wide 'rue' where most of the time you could even walk with your children.
3. Disco: I spent two nights at the 'Classico' and at the bar below. Got to know the two managers – both of whom are Italians and am told the owner as well. I also went for a short stint to the Latino for good meringue music –dragged by two women I was with. The ratio of women to men at the disco was perhaps even 10 to 1. I cannot say what it was like before but I never felt there was any shortage of game if you are a beast of prey! The first night, I walked with two women to the disco and they made my day (or night) – what with the beautiful Bachata music (it sounds as soft and pleasing to me as Reggae is ). The Reggeton music represents the other end – full of energy (Tutta la gasolina. If you know what I am referring to). The two women grinded against me with complete and gay abandon and there were others who showed much interest in doing lo mismo! In general, I will say this, because I tried this on the second night. If you want to go alone and just dance by yourself, very soon you will find women rubbing their butt against you. I know most of it is driven by business interest – nonetheless, it is a rather pleasant exercise, at least it was for me as the line between the hunter and the hunted gets blurry.
4. Women at large: I cannot say enough good things about them. They are probably the most pleasant of women I have seen. Mostly docile, women have to do the heavy lifting with all the child raising they do (which of course is the reason why they are so plentiful) but I have seen many other place where women wear a scowl. Not here – they came to the hotel at all odd hours and despite the fact they barely knew me, they were always nice and decent. Most women always have a smile and that is indeed quite an achievement given the roughness life has dealt them. They reminded me of creepers who are always looking for trees around them, to latch on to so they can flourish.
5. Gifts: I had brought gifts for them from the US (mostly aeropostale T-shirts) which always were appreciated – especially as it was a surprise.
6. Connections: Thanks to Frannie, I started with a massage the afternoon of my arrival and again the first evening (the airline lost my luggage and so the first night was somewhat stressful without fresh / clean clothes in the heat) , with a smart, beautiful Haitian woman – again thanks to Frannie. By the way, there were plenty of Haitian women (who seem to be a big hit with many – especially the francophone) all around not including the massage parlors.
7. Second day onwards, I started touching base with my online contacts with my new local phone number (BTW, I took my US phone and at a local Orange store, was able to 'rent' a local sim card for a 500 peso deposit plus minutes with additional money. It worked like a charm). On a side note, I did not but some of you may try the smart and English speaking woman at that store – close to Bailey's restaurant. She looks feisty, with a nice set of mammary that are put well on display as indeed by most local women.
8. I liked 4 women at the disco good for my taste but I never brought anyone back to hotel at 4 AM – always walked back alone. I like to sleep by myself, my libido is not too strong at the wee hour of the morning and I do not like to pay a huge sum for the 'night', I got the phone numbers and next day set up time – mostly in the late afternoons as before that, their phones seem to be dead / turned off.
9. Passions etc. I did not go there – actually do not know where it is either but did not see any need whatsoever to go fish as someone said here from a 'fishbowl'. The whole place is waiting to be fished and you do not have to be no Tom Cruise, to finagle yours.
10. I also found women that did have qualms about coming to the hotel. Indeed, I struck up conversation with a woman who works at a store. I invited her but she came back on the back seat of a motor bike driven by her brother at the end of her work day. She explained that people will talk, wanted me to go to her house and excused herself. I was perfectly fine with that as of course, I do not want to do anything against a woman's will. The interesting part was that she called back in the evening and asked if I was mad at her (she used the word –"furioso" which I could not quite figure out until a Spanish speaking friend intervened to speak to her to understand what she was trying to say). In the same vein, there was another young woman who I found to be high maintenance – probably justifiably.she came all the way from Puerto Plata (like a few others I met online) and so I specifically cut the cord and she came back with the same question – if I am mad. Go figure!
11. I think the most interesting aspect of the country is this. Not only you have people who work in this specific trade but you have a good chance of striking gold with the rest as well. This possibility, coupled with the fact that they somehow prefer to hang out with older men (they gave many reasons for this and some were as specific as "no more Dominican men" which true or not, I find somewhat tragic) and that they are extremely friendly (we had situations in which sexual banters were hurled at them and it did not frazzle them at all. They took it, laughed at it as much as the white men did. An interesting exercise in contrast to other women elsewhere who would probably be very offended!) – made Sosua an extremely interesting experience for me.
12. At a personal level, when I used to travel to Asia, I never thought of conversing with the locals – being on business travel, I did not have time to learn Thai or Bahasa to be an insider. The fact that I can actually speak the language with the DR women (everyone- males and females were gracious even if I made terrible errors) makes it for me a very atypical exercise and perhaps sets the place apart from the others.
Vici: As I said, I actually lost (smiley).
Lost money. Paid between 1000-1500 (and at times lower amount).depending on my mood, friendliness and other calculations. Lost much leche. BTW, I tried some medications but it just did not do it for me.
I also lost (and left) a bit of my heart there. It is weird to have a young 24 year old woman leaning against you in bed, completely nude, checking something on her beautiful breast in complete and absolute trust. On another occasion, I could not produce 'leche' for a woman and she was disappointed. I tried to be candid (as stupid as I still am) but she did not take the truth of my being with others earlier well (God, sometimes, it is better to lie to a woman!). For someone like me, no longer in his prime, it made me look back at life gone by wistfully.

Glad you enjoyed your visit and sorry I missed you when you left. Later that day the two ladies who took you to the disco showed up knocking on my door and looking for you. I had to inform them that you had fled the country, and they were rather triste so I attempted to console them both with a threesome in your memory. I think they felt a bit better after a good therapy session, but they said something about coming back again today, so maybe they are not fully over you yet. I will do my best to stand in for you.
By the way, a hint to the unwary on the subject of photographs. If a chica says that she wants to take a photo of your penis so that she can use it in the future ¨para masturbarme¨ do not believe a word of this nonsense. It is more likely that your sexual organ will end up as a trophy shared with her friends on Facebook. Tragically, the innocence of these girls has been destroyed by the Internet. So do not allow them to take intimate photos.

CMP sucks in my opinion, the girls aren't that great and they are extremely pushy. I was in La Passion a few times last week and they had a ton of girls early but on Friday by about 1:00 am they were almost "sold out". The talent quality was very very good, I don't pull from there often but my friends do.I second that, some of the best looking girls can be found in la Passion. Yesterday there were still round about 25 girls left when I arrived at 9:30 pm. I was really in trouble choosing a girl because almost all of them were very good looking.
Anybody going to be at La passion tonight.
This week thuesday was very slow, Wednesday better and yesterday there were alot of girls available in all the discos.
I will be in Sosua Aug 16. 24. Which hotels are chica friendly and have the best amenities? Also, which ones are a good deal. What are the going rates for ST, TLN whith the chicas and Belky's Massage? But most of all what is the cost of a meal down there. I like chiken and steak and lemonade. If anyone has any insight please share.

If anyone has any insight please share.The cost of a meal is your most important question? Let me answer it this way, what does a meal cost where you live?
Bet you say, That depends".
Well, actually it is more like. I came, saw and lost!
Acknowledgments first: I have to formally thank Frannie – who was both extremely kind and generous with his time, advice and hand holding (actually even spoon-feeding my initial forays). I even discussed Toynbee and Gibbon with him not to speak of Jane Austen – an amazing coincidence. I also need to thank Charles Pooter (who I unfortunately could not meet during my short 6 night stay) for his critical and helpful comments at the planning phase.
Finally, I would like to thank and I do not know who (as I cannot find the report). Someone on this DR forum laid out a plan as to how to get contacts on the web prior to arrival and the modus operandi thereafter. Now, while I did amass a lot of such contacts – many came to see me from Puerto Plata. Some of which worked wonderfully and some not, I do think it is perfectly okay not to have any game plan whatsoever –which probably is the beauty of the place.
Veni: I landed at Puerto Plata – rode a public taxi (driver +six passengers in a Toyota Corolla) along with Frannie who was kind enough to come to the airport to alleviate the beginner's blues. For 50 peso, I got a ride to Sosua and there on walked to the hotel. It was perfectly okay for me, even on a hot sunny summer day.
Stay: I stayed at a hotel called Romanoff. This is an apartment hotel. People can pay a little more for the apartments as compared to the room which is what I had. I also settled for a non-A / C room and indeed barring the late afternoons, the temperature was almost always pleasant with low humidity and with a fan going, I had no trouble sleeping.
I understand the hotel does not have a website but you should be able to google the contact details.
Chica- friendly: I see this coming out as a regular topic of concern. One afternoon, I was sitting outside chatting with a group of guys (English, Dutch, German, French Canadian, Italian and indeed Russian –the owner) and of all ages as we also watched games walking by. Personally, I enjoyed shooting the breeze with these guys in as many languages as chasing the women. I was speaking with the owner when my appointment (from the Disco contact) arrived. The owner, a 70 year old with an immaculate English accent, looked at me and said: 'well, I see that we will have to postpone our discussion for later', with a wink. Hopefully that tells you what the place is like in terms of the relaxed mood that prevails. It is a quiet place – no partying or bragging rights game. There are many long term residents who live in this quiet, tree covered / adorned apartments which are probably not as sleek as newly renovated properties but it did it for me (I am also a cheapskate!).
I paid $30 for the room per day and it was clean. I do want to warn you that if you fancy extra comfort or a glitzy environment, this is not it. I found it to be a place, which is extremely non-judgmental, clean with all the basic amenities we take for granted in the western world and very much a fraternal environment with respect for all. Located in a quiet street (City Hall is on the same street) with very little noise, I loved the idea of walking to Clissante. Main street – a 10 minutes walk perhaps to the Merengue bar, as I discovered avocado, mango, lime and numerous other fruit trees with fruits hanging, pointed out to me by a 20 year old who was very knowledgeable on these as she hailed from the country.
Vidi: This was my first trip to Sosua (and D. R) and so I did not know what to expect. Nonetheless, here is my impression:
1. The Main street – I liked it because it came across as quaint to me – tree lined, not much noise when I visited, one way and full of European restaurants. We dined at an Austrian place, and an Italian place. Food quality was excellent (I lived in EU for long and am used to the real European food). By the way, there is an Italian restaurant called Bologna. Which is as genuine as one can get. In addition to two dinners, I had a fine chocolate croissant and café con leche breakfast one morning –kindly offered by one newly made friend there.
2. Women on the street: Most restaurants had sun umbrellas out and eating in the evening was rather pleasant as we saw the world go by. Close to Latino's or Merenque, there were indeed women but I was neither solicited nor harassed. I found it pleasant in that if I wished to, I could approach anyone but not the other way around which is what I like personally. Prior to getting there, I was worried that this is a place like the Reeparbahn in Hamburg. Garish neon signs and noise. I was pleasantly surprised to see an almost European style, tree lined, not very wide 'rue' where most of the time you could even walk with your children.
3. Disco: I spent two nights at the 'Classico' and at the bar below. Got to know the two managers – both of whom are Italians and am told the owner as well. I also went for a short stint to the Latino for good meringue music –dragged by two women I was with. The ratio of women to men at the disco was perhaps even 10 to 1. I cannot say what it was like before but I never felt there was any shortage of game if you are a beast of prey! The first night, I walked with two women to the disco and they made my day (or night) – what with the beautiful Bachata music (it sounds as soft and pleasing to me as Reggae is ). The Reggeton music represents the other end – full of energy (Tutta la gasolina. If you know what I am referring to). The two women grinded against me with complete and gay abandon and there were others who showed much interest in doing lo mismo! In general, I will say this, because I tried this on the second night. If you want to go alone and just dance by yourself, very soon you will find women rubbing their butt against you. I know most of it is driven by business interest – nonetheless, it is a rather pleasant exercise, at least it was for me as the line between the hunter and the hunted gets blurry.
4. Women at large: I cannot say enough good things about them. They are probably the most pleasant of women I have seen. Mostly docile, women have to do the heavy lifting with all the child raising they do (which of course is the reason why they are so plentiful) but I have seen many other place where women wear a scowl. Not here – they came to the hotel at all odd hours and despite the fact they barely knew me, they were always nice and decent. Most women always have a smile and that is indeed quite an achievement given the roughness life has dealt them. They reminded me of creepers who are always looking for trees around them, to latch on to so they can flourish.
5. Gifts: I had brought gifts for them from the US (mostly aeropostale T-shirts) which always were appreciated – especially as it was a surprise.
6.

I visited hotel romanoff years ago, two pros were sharing an apartment there, seemed like a nice place (Azul blonde wig sometimes, half colombian-half dominican chica, very pleasant and her roommate was a brunette). Years ago there was a bar / restaurant called Capirinha, across the street from the hotel romanoff, that stayed open 24/7, not sure if that place is still there.
Bologna bar and restaurant years ago was a nice quiet place, good to see that it is still open.
One question, you "rented" a Sim card from Orange? I knew a chica who used to work for Orange and I asked her about a year ago, the cost of a Sim card at Orange to Buy and she told me 200 pesos. The cell phone companies make their money on the minutes you purchase, they could give some equipment away for free and still make money. I am not sure how Orange is in Sosua. There is a Claro shop in Sosua, near the antenna, they should Sell sim cards with minutes for under 500 pesos.

I will be in Sosua Aug 16. 24. Which hotels are chica friendly and have the best amenities? Also, which ones are a good deal. What are the going rates for ST, TLN whith the chicas and Belky's Massage? But most of all what is the cost of a meal down there. I like chiken and steak and lemonade. If anyone has any insight please share.Almost all hotels are chica friendly to some extent or other, except for all inclusive resorts which are definitely not. Regarding the best amenities, many people say Terra Linda, but it all depends on what amenities matter to you.
Going rates for short time are generally $1500 to $1000 pesos, but it may depend to some extent on the situation and your negotiating skills. If you are prepared to walk if you don't get your way, then expect to pay at the lower range. The moral is obviously to negotiate on price before you get to the point of no return, meaning the point at which it would be difficult to get another girl.
I have paid 2000 pesos to two girls for a threesome, but this might be overpaying as usually one girl most of the work while the other slacks off unles you really keep both on task. Probably 750 each would still make them both happy.
I usually pay 600 pesos for massage plus happy ending. The basic is 300 pesos for half an hour of massage, plus 300 tip for so-called extras. Girls will ask for as much as they think they can get. Again the trick in negotiating is to say that you don't want the happy ending and that another girl offered it for less anyway, or you can say that you only have x pesos, and she can take it or leave it. So basically just tell them what you will pay and leave it at that.
I don't know why I am telling you these tricks. A lot of the girls are really hurting now as there are not many customers around. Also some of the girls are a bit choosy regarding age and ethnicity of customers, which may further narrow their options. I was talking to one of my favorite massage girls an hour or two ago, who is wonderfully talented, and whom I am quite fond of and she told me she has not had a single customer today and I know she is hurting for money. I arranged to see her on Sunday.
As far as all night, I really would not recommend this unless you already know the girl and have a good rapport, in which case you will already know how much you want to pay her. If you want sex in the morning it may be better to meet a girl at night and arrange to see her in the morning. You could then have another girl for nightcap sex.
Although prices can be bargained and it is stupid to overpay as a display of conspicuous consumption, I would not encourage guys to try to bargain girls into the ground just for the hell of it. They probably need the money more than you do, so pay a reasonable price. On the other hand, if you grossly overpay, they may head straight for the lottery ticket booth with your money. It depends on the girl.
For prices you can also look at the menu for la Passion which you can find online. Usually you would expect to pay a freelancer less money than you would pay to take a girl out of la Passion, so that may be a helpful guideline.
Cost of a meal varies quite a bit. For my lunch today I had a fresh avocado and a mango bought from a Haitian woman for about US$1 fir both, with some bread and butter and ice tea. Overall cost about US$1. 50. Prices go up from there.
To buy a plate of grilled chicken and side order from a Dominican restaurant is pretty cheap, cheaper than Kentucky Fried Chicken, but to eat steak in a nice restaurant like Baileys will be rather more pricey, though I recommend the Churrascuro steak. At a pricier restaurant you will also pay more for the drinks, coffee, desserts, taxes, tips, etc. You can get hamburgers and fries any place, though of variable quality, though even the worst will be better than McD or Burger King.
On the other hand there are plenty of very reasonable priced restaurants where you can get excellent food.
Schnitzel Paradise has excellent Schnitzel and I had a wonderful beefy goulash soup there the other day. Not expensive.
Elefante Rojo is an Italian place that has great pasta dishes, spaghetti, etc. At very reasonable prices.
Bologna Restaurant and Pizzeria is an excellent Italian restaurant. You can get pizza to go. I had an excellent small pizza Napolitano today for 250 pesos. The very large ones are double the price and are world class pizza, not Dominos garbage.
There are several German restaurants, some of which have some excellent sausage or salami and potato dishes.
Anyway, all these places are close together and you can just walk around until you see something you like the look of. Mostly prices are posted outside.
Fruit can often be bought in the street. In the supermarket I recommend the bottles of liquid drinking yoghurt, about $1, various kinds of German bread and pastries, including sumptous chocolate croissants and Danish pastries, various kinds of salami, which they will slice for you.
Local beer such as Presidente or Bohemia is good. Expect to pay 40 pesos for a small cold beer in a convenience store (colmado) , but 100 pesos and up in a bar or restaurant. Drink prices are highest in disco or night club as you might expect.
Lemonade? To be honest, yo do not see a lot of lemons here, and just to cause confusion the word limon means lime not lemon. You can get bottles of Minute Maid lemonade in the stores, but that stuff is crap and expensive. You can probably get lemonade in a more expensive restaurant like Bailey's and you may be able to get a bottle of lemon juice concentrate and sugar in the supermarket, if you want to make it yourself. Personally I brought enough tea bags to make 25 gallons, as that is my favorite tipple. You can buy a gallon pitcher here for a dollar or two.
Overall food is very good and prices are very reasonable if you try to stick to local produce and manufactures. Imported stuff is very expensive, as you would expect.
Have fun.
I second that, some of the best looking girls can be found in la Passion. Yesterday there were still round about 25 girls left when I arrived at 9:30 pm. I was really in trouble choosing a girl because almost all of them were very good looking.No doubt, however the prettiest faces do not always make the best bed partners. Chemistry is everything.
I will not be able to make it to la Passion tonight as I am already totally shagged, as usual.
It should be 'disculpame'.Disculpame, Perdoname, Lo siento (I am sorry).
When the chicas say their sob stories, I'll reply "Que pena" (what a pain). La vida es muy dificil aveces (The life is very difficult sometimes).

The Orange store by the Texaco in Sosua I bought a phone with minutes for under 500 pesos. Keep an eye out for the cheap phones street vendors sell for around 200 pesos with minutes, I only ran into them once and passed like a idiot, I should have bought a half dozen.
Good lenthy report Fannie. One thing I would not agree with, is regularly eating from local vendors. I don't skimp when it comes to good food, the last thing I need is to be sick on vacation because I wanted to save 3usd. Mauri Mauri, Baileys etc are worth the 10usd investment, if it digest correctly. The two vendors I eat from are Ollies and the grill that used to be in front of four roses. If you are a newbie and arent sure which street vendors are good, just watch a few minutes to see if they have alot of gringo clientelle. Don't just eat food strangers walk around selling. Just my. 02.

Just as a friendly monger reminder, this is exactly the reason you do not want to be going down to Sosua (or any mongering destination for that matter) and be falling in love with these chicas:
Glad you enjoyed your visit and sorry I missed you when you left. Later that day the two ladies who took you to the disco showed up knocking on my door and looking for you. I had to inform them that you had fled the country, and they were rather triste so I attempted to console them both with a threesome in your memory. I think they felt a bit better after a good therapy session, but they said something about coming back again today, so maybe they are not fully over you yet. I will do my best to stand in for you.A weaker (spirited) person would probably attempt to do bodily harm to themselves upon this discovery, especially if that person had been sending weekly or monthly "retainer fees" (Western Union) to said chica with whom he's discovered love all over again with.
Treat the game like Six Flags: You show up (Sosua) , ride the rides (chicas) , take pictures, and go home (to Sex Prison) happy and plan for the next outing. No need to send Six Flags (chicas in Sosua / the DR) a monthly stipend once you've left the theme park (via Western Union).
If you find yourself thinking otherwise and still believe you may have been bitten by a love bug, let the Temptations remind you that it's probably "Just My Imagination":

Keep an eye out for the cheap phones street vendors sell for around 200 pesos with minutes, I only ran into them once and passed like a idiot, I should have bought a half dozen.Yes, I went to the Orange store in Sosua with Tempoecorto and he didn't have his passport with him, but they said there was some kind of deal for tourists that you paid a deposit but didn't need to show a passport. The multilingual girl in Orange is seriously cute, but must have dozens of long distance novios in love with her.
Anyway, they put the SIM into the phone he provided and he was in business. On the day he left he went back to the Orange store to return the SIM and collect his deposit. Unfortunately I missed him as he was diverted into a preflight massage therapy session, as often happens when you are trying hard to get from A to B in Sosua, but end up with your pants round your ankles.
Disculpame, Perdoname, Lo siento (I am sorry).
When the chicas say their sob stories, I'll reply "Que pena" (what a pain). La vida es muy dificil aveces (The life is very difficult sometimes).I say exactly the same thing. Lo siento mucho. I feel your pain.

Because I only use it or have it used towards me as Que Pena or Que pena contigo: How embarrassing, what a shame, In that context. Never as "I feel your pain"Yes, I know that, but if you translate lo siento literally into English it means 'I feel it', although of course as an idiom it means 'I am sorry'. So lo siento mucho por ti could also translate as I feel very much for you or as I feel your pain.

Very nice report, thanks for posting.
I visited hotel romanoff years ago, two pros were sharing an apartment there, seemed like a nice place (Azul blonde wig sometimes, half colombian-half dominican chica, very pleasant and her roommate was a brunette). Years ago there was a bar / restaurant called Capirinha, across the street from the hotel romanoff, that stayed open 24/7, not sure if that place is still there.
Bologna bar and restaurant years ago was a nice quiet place, good to see that it is still open.
One question, you "rented" a Sim card from Orange? I knew a chica who used to work for Orange and I asked her about a year ago, the cost of a Sim card at Orange to Buy and she told me 200 pesos. The cell phone companies make their money on the minutes you purchase, they could give some equipment away for free and still make money. I am not sure how Orange is in Sosua. There is a Claro shop in Sosua, near the antenna, they should Sell sim cards with minutes for under 500 pesos.Thanks for reading my thoughts. I read yours with much pleasure as well.
All I can say for Romanoff is that, it is not a fancy place but it is a very friendly and strongly laissez-faire environment. No one is going to bust someone's family jewels if one is circumspect and maintains low profile. I enjoyed the bonhomie with the residents as much as I liked my time with the women.
Capirinha is very much there. 24/7 and as you mentioned, almost across the hotel but I did not go there as I was told it is DR food. Personally, I do not care for chiecken or beans. My problem!
Bologna is now a big fancy building which too is just across. The owner is an Italian (Edoardo).introduced to me by another Italian. I had two dinners. Enjoying a truly first class meal but relative to the local standard, it is pricey. I paid 1300+ for a fish / meat main course, plus an appetizer, wine and a dessert. Espresso was offered by the boss. People frequenting the place are typically those who can afford or who want to impress. Service was particularly good and one girl and one garcon, understood Italian very well.
As Frannie already explained, I was not spoken about the SIM card purchase option. Renting essentially meant keeping a deposit of 500 pesos which I got back and I used about 700 pesos worth of minutes. The Orange woman was notably efficient, even by our standards, not to speak about her linguistic acumen.

Just as a friendly monger reminder, this is exactly the reason you do not want to be going down to Sosua (or any mongering destination for that matter) and be falling in love with these chicas:
A weaker (spirited) person would probably attempt to do bodily harm to themselves upon this discovery, especially if that person had been sending weekly or monthly "retainer fees" (Western Union) to said chica with whom he's discovered love all over again with.
Treat the game like Six Flags: You show up (Sosua) , ride the rides (chicas) , take pictures, and go home (to Sex Prison) happy and plan for the next outing. No need to send Six Flags (chicas in Sosua / the DR) a monthly stipend once you've left the theme park (via Western Union).
If you find yourself thinking otherwise and still believe you may have been bitten by a love bug, let the Temptations remind you that it's probably "Just My Imagination":

SPThis is very sensible counsel except the "taking pictures thing". I have a philosophical issue with taking pictures as I feel it is objectification of a person; Besides, the risks of exposure. Whatever goes around, comes around after all.
But on the big picture, as far as I am concerned, I have left a piece of my heart with too many people across the world. Some knew and some were not even aware of it. Most of them were not pros (so Western Union has no role) and even if some are pros, their heart beats exactly like mine. I just cannot forget the face of this person this time when she gets to discover that I visited a massage parlor earlier. All she could say is, 'why didn't you call me'. Perhaps I am naive but I felt her feelings were genuine and I thought I was unbelievably crass and insensible.
No matter where, I think we all keep doing this. Bump into someone out of the thousands and suddenly magic happens and we wish time will stop moving but of course, it does not and we keep this sadness within us as we traverse life.

Whatever goes around, comes around after all.Not all pictures have to be butt-naked pictures, LOL. I have taken pictures of the beach, my hotel room, photos while riding around the island, and of fully-clothed chicas. Don't think there's much harm in that. But I understand where you are coming from.
If I post any naked photos of chicas on this forum I usually leave their faces out of them (especially if they are very recent photos). Most members on here will tell you that posting "full-face" photos of chicas immediately after your trip does not turn out well for them (especially if you told said chica you'd be back in a month or two) because the "network" has their spies (and snitches) everywhere!
I've also never taken photos of chicas (fully clothed or not) without their consent.

Don't think there's much harm in that. But I understand where you are coming from.Apologies, I was only referring to women's nude photos. The irony is that the face is the most riveting feature (I would argue. Arousing) of a picture. This time in the Classico? Disco I was dancing with two women and there was one woman who was trying to catch my attention. Her glances captivated me. She later told me laughingly that she was slightly tipsy.
To me, other body parts do not quite convey what a single smile or a pair of eyes can and so when I have to obliterate the face, to me it becomes something that have gone down in value so I just plain decided it is not worth the effort. But that is me and thanks for understanding what I am trying to say.

Thanks for your posts.
We have similar views on DR and Sosua. Where else can an older guy go for a week and connect not only with beautiful girls, but also with the locals. Whatever their motivations, to me it's the downright friendliest place on earth.
As for leaving a piece of your heart, there are as many types of chicas as there are types of mongers (us). They have a short window in their ives to make a little money and improve their circumstances. For the most part they do NOT, and can not, with a few obvious sad exceptions, continue in the trade.
The less intelligent ones, like the SW's will go back to their impoverished lives, but a few smart ones, pros and part timers alike are living well, driving SUVs in some cases, and supporting their families rather well, with schools, uniforms, educational and trade courses etc. Some have jobs in banks, government and major stores and restaurants.
The smart ones know how to dress and behave in polite company and get invited to the Home country of their novios where they meet family and pass rather well. They also have perfected the art of making their Novio feel comfortable and secure in the relationship, especially in public places and with friends and family. No flirting, a healthy and normal relationship with other males, in which you are included. She will have the respect of her family and friends, male and female alike.
My point is, if you are lucky enough to connect with one, it can be a beautiful thing indeed, and you don't necesarily have to leave your heart behind.
In fact, to take issue with what my buddy SavePro says, a little Werte Yunior to keep it cooking, is no big investment, compared to the lifetime of money you can waste on unnapreciative and spoiled women from developed countries.
Just like panning for gold, you can occasionally fing a nugget.
I know, I found one.

No matter where, I think we all keep doing this. Bump into someone out of the thousands and suddenly magic happens and we wish time will stop moving but of course, it does not and we keep this sadness within us as we traverse life.I first visited Sosua a year and a half ago.
In preparation for my second trip, I read every single post from back then up until today. At first, it was impossible for me to fathom how, in the same span of time, Sosua got more reports than either Pattaya, Angeles City, Rio or Medellin. Even accounting all the US weekend-mongers, it just didn't make sense.
Then upon reading 275 pages, I found out that 99% of the post were about:
-the death of Sosua.
-Sosua is alive and well.
-black people are ruining it.
-countless lazy brothers asking the same newbie questions over and over again.
So thanks Tempoecorto for sharing your thoughts and experiences about Sosua, and even more so for gracing us with something soulful, instead of the all-too-common dissertation about the value of the peso in relation to the pussy diameter and gyno pics.

Frannie, next time you in passions. Let me know if lorena still works there. I would like to plan a trip back. ThankyouAs politicians say, I have no current plans to visit la Passion, and in any case with a place like that there is new merchandise arriving every day, so it is best to go in person and see what fresh produce has just come in.
I don't think I would plan a trip around the presence of one chica at la Passion.
I would like to see how the new Sosua looks, maybe Frannie can take some pics on Clisante.Not much to see really. Here are a couple. Sosua is a popular venue for preseason training, and you will see many groups of large men with names and numbers on their shirts trying to be anonymous.
I agree about posting pictures of chicas. I cannot see the point of posting (or even taking) pictures of body parts. That is middle school stuff. And unless you are a professional photographer, it is almost imposssible to capture the smile, the expression, the focus of the eyes that makes Dom Republican chicas so attractive, and even if you do, then you don't want to post them for confidentiality reasons. If anyone wants to know what Dom Rep chicas look like, they can go to the Web site of la Passion to see a good selection, but again these are amateur snapshots and in no way capture the true spirit of the girls.

I guess it's my fault for falsely assuming that when I post "decapitated" pics that guys would just use their imagination. Anytime I've posted photos of chicas with their faces in them I get a ton of PM's asking me for contact info (which I do not keep) , which leaves me to believe that there are a lot of guys that do in fact try to plan their trips around a chica that may or may not be on the block when they arrive.
But you cannot ignore the consensus; everyone seems to agree that photos of chicas with their faces in them are the best. But since I only post photos sin la cara, I just won't bother posting them anymore. If you frequent the DR often though, posting photos con la cara is probably not good practice (unless the photos are so old that the chica in them has probably retired and is collecting pension).
Anyone else that decides to post decapitated pics, let me be the first to tell you that ole SavePros still knows how to use his imagination, LOL. I've been to the DR enough time to know what the face of a Dominicana and Haitiana looks like, and have been living long enough to know what the face of a woman looks like (they all seem to be different for some apparent reason).

I think guy who have not been to the DR see a picture of a girl they like, and they hope to meet her, not realising that there are dozens just like her whom they will like just as much. Actually I did the same many years ago and the chica in question became a sort of temporary novia for a couple of days until I ended up throwing her out in the middle of the night. Once guys actually arrive here, they realise that all they have to do is follow the direction their dick is pointing.
People will always post whatever pictures they want, but you have to think about the needs of your viewers. Are they looking for pictures to masturbate over, or are they just wanting to know what the average Dominicana looks like, or do you really have a picture of outstanding aethetic quality that is charming or interesting, or reveals some unusual aspect of Dominican life? As I look through my camera, most of the best pictures seem to involve children or animals or family domestic scenes, so not really suitable for posting here as I would not want to expose innocent animals to the leering gaze of ISG.

Why? Most dudes on these boards cannot be trusted. And I have a hard time trusting anybody who I have not personally met. I'll be down next month. I will be taking a shit load of pics. If I do decide to put up pics, they will be of inanimate objects like buildings and food.

Besides faces, I think we all know what a pvssy looks like, or should by now. Bottomline is I encourage all to post whatever they want.

I decided long ago that pictures do not quite convey what the photographer is trying to do. A two dimensional icon is no substitute for the three dimensional (you being there) and perhaps even a forth dimension (you being there at a certain point of time). I do not carry a camera any longer (of course, my smart phone by definition is now a still and a video camera). What I see in my mind's eye is nothing I can transfer to an image capturing device.
Strangely, a girl (working in a shop) took my face picture with her blackberry this time. She too wants the ephemeral to be permanent!

I know, I found one.I am so pleased to hear you found a nugget. I have no doubt you can get lucky. I met a 26 year old who finished 8th grade only and another 21 year old, who works at a law firm as an Assistant and goes to Law School at night and as you rightly pointed out, depending on what I can only describe as "fate", some will make some hay while the sun shines and some will do much better. No matter what, I only wish them well and am grateful to them for having allowed me a little glimpse into them.
I also think the same of any woman I have been with. Not only from the DR. Of course, it was so much more different trying to strike up a conversation in Asia (or with a East European woman in Germany) with my poor grasp of their language vis a vis theirs of English. DR, personally is interesting because, I can speak to them plus it is not that I am speaking to a specific subset, as in Asia or Europe. Here, literally, the "world". Correction, the island, is your oyster.
As a final reflection, I do not want to belittle the women from the Western world either. Yes, their expectations are different, a man of my age would not draw the attention of a 20 year old but no matter where in the world they are from and whether they are 20 or 40, women are the kindest, the most patient and the most flexible while I am such a pain in the neck! No wonder Nature saddled them with the responsibility of re-creating and nurturing life while I as a man can only show my long face and it gets worse as I get older. I thank God every day s / he created women and I would bet all members on this forum think the same! (smiley).

Ah, well!I agree that women can take you to hell but we contribute to that. I know I did. But I ascribe this eternal fiasco primarily to raising children. The job of parenting sucks all the energy of the adults. All other emotions completely squeezed out. Despite all our intellectualizing about love and passion, re-creating and sustaining life is the one and only ever-repeating game in town played from primordial times and we play along what Nature have us playing, blissfully ignorant.
I think anyone who gets married more than once is a true romantic. Seriously! So, Kudos. Here is one who is trying to re-create the miasma of state of bliss one is in at the outset.
I can quite understand the skepticism of your friends but what the heck, we only live once and so feel free to make all the mistakes we can. NOW is all we have.

According to recent information, the tourist police (Politur) adjusted it's policy the last few days. The Politur seems to be more cautious and quiet than before. What happened?
Last week a committee of the Ministry of Tourism of Santo Domingo and the Ministry of Health (Salud Público) visited Sosúa. They do this almost every year, they check the local restaurants and bars if they live up to the hygiene rules. They also check the tax payments and permits.
Politur cautious lately?
During the inspection tour, the committee members were overwhelmed with complaints from the owners. The complaints were primarily about the aggressive arrests by the Politur of street vendors and women walking alone and the negative impression this makes on the tourists. These arrests were frequently filmed by tourists and put on YouTube and this led to a wave of negative news about Sosúa. Moreover, the committee itself found out that many bars and restaurants were closed and in other places there was little clientele. They decided to suspend their tour of inspection and to go in consultation with the Mayor Ilana Neumann and the commander of the Politur. What they exactly discussed in the consultation and what the findings are is not yet disclosed. It seemed that the mayor was very upset by the decline of the restaurants and bars in business. Now we see that the last few days the Politur is more cautious and quiet.
It looks like and we hope that Sosúa will regain its valued conviviality

Is there any daytime action other than Passions. I see from thier website it is 2500 pesos for full service. I am hoping to pay between 1000 and 1500 pesos.
JayhighfiveSure there is. Almost any chica at a massage parlor will offer a BJ or FS. You can pick up chicas on the beach. You can pick up most chicas you walk past on the street. And you can get the phone number of any chica you pick up at night and have her come over during the daytime.

JayhighfiveYes, there is lots, and you can pay whatever you want, because you offer and they either accept or decline. You can find girls at massage parlors and do it on site, or get a masaje domicilario, which means she comes to your hotel to give you a massage (sex). Alternatively you can meet ladies at night and arrange to see them next day at given time or place. You will also see the same girls who are out at night walking around in the daytime (not before midday) and if you stop and chat with them, they will often be up for a little after lunch or predinner hanky panky.
Also any girl who returns your smile in the street may be worth furthering a discussion. You can't just ask How Much for ficky ficky to a civilian girl, but you can tell her that a girl as pretty as her must have many novios and let her come back at you. If she says she has no novio, but is looking, that may be considered a come on.
I just had a girl at 10 am this morning. I had been flirting with her for over a week as she had never had sex with a foreigner before, only with Dominican boyfriends, and has no children but she really needed money. Having established this fact, I let the whole matter cool for several days, and didn't mention the matter again until today although I saw her a few times at her workplace, to allow some tension to build.
Today, the deed was done and OMG that was one of most perfect ever. She was a little nervous, but as wet as the Rio Grande in the rainy season, and although I have enjoyed many Dominicanas, this was one of the sweetest and hottest sessions ever, like having sex for the first time.
I am not a great fan of condoms, as if they are tight they tend to squeeze the blood out of you, and you can't feel a thing, but today with this girl there was so much lubrication it felt like bareback and it was all pure pleasure and not the tedious chore that sex can easily become.
Of course my real motive was to take one for the team, because if she found her first encounter with a gringo pleasurable, then surely it would only be a matter of time before others would have the chance to follow suit.
However, she swore me to secrecy, so I cannot give a name, phone number, or GPS location, but relay this information purely for entertainment purposes and so that anyone planning to visit Sosua may contemplate what may be possible even if you are elderly, ugly, and overweight, and just got out of bed.
