Here's a Throwback Tuesday post of my very first trip to BB's in 2009. Anybody elese?
My first visit to BB was in 2005 and India was an icon there.
She just about retired the Bikini Contest prize when she competed.
Not hard to see why.
She's a "civilian" now in Puerto Plata.
She is gorgeous and can certainly work a couple more years at BB.
What is the average tenure at BB? Most girls told me it is 4 years. But I am sure it is longer than that.

I'm not an expert but 4-5 years sounds about right. The only chica I still recognize on their newsletters is Hilda. She's been there about 4-5 years now.
Its a combination of "burn out" and lack of desire to continue, or making enough money for their needs, or losing their looks.
For some, sitting around all day, with daily intake of beer / drinks, etc, takes its toll.

For some reasons I do not understand, many chicas at BB ad FOD use their real names rather than fake working names.
So you can find them on facebooks by searching their real names. And you can see their aging process. It is amazing how fast they can lose their looks. In just four years, A "ten" chica can age to "six" and gain 40 pounds.
It is shocking that beauty is so fragile. It is equally shocking that they do not hide that they are working at BB and FOD. Their families and friends can easily find out from their facebook postings. It is really a different culture.

Seems to be a different culture now.

Chicas think that everyone can become Western Union novio and / or repeat customer. And maybe even a ticket from the island.

Most of them would use real name if it was not for unwritten rule not to have 2 chicas with same name to avoid confusion.
They may not like if you post nude or not so good (in their opinion) photos on your page. Yet, they post many of their photos shot at BB. Shocked me at first too.

I can just see it, "Daddy, who's this lady on your Facebook page? Why does she call you Papi?
I have a fake facebook account. Only chicas are my friends for that account. It really just takes 1 min before my friends find out the professions of these chicas if they are added as friends of my main facebook account.

I told them I was in North Korea where no Western Union can be found. But it was kind of interesting to see their lives through their FB postings.
How often do we know a pro's life in Canada or USA? We do not even know their real life. It is also amazing that how fast they lose their looks.
For example, Chantal just downgrades from 9 to 6 in just two years judging from her FB timeline (she had her second baby in this time frame).
Another chica is saving money to buy a 2008 Honda CRV as per her FB posting. I would imagine she is the richest chica there.

If you want to hang or party with other guys, the weekends are Animal House with women, but chilling during the week with a laptop, book, free cup of coffee and / or a cigar (with women) has a lot to be said for it.
Pick a chica you can enjoy spending some non-bed time with, walk to the Costambar beach (usually deserted on weekdays) buy a couple of beers, and you can have a very enjoyable, leisurely time.

I have booked my first trip to Blackbeards mid June, and I am really looking forward to it. I know the German FKK scene reasonably well now (I live in Germany), plus I have been to Thailand and the Philippines quite a few times, but this will be my first experience of mongering in the Americas. Loads of great info on this forum has given me a reasonable insight into how Blackbeards work and the pricing system. One question I do have however. Is it kind of normal and expected to buy the girls drinks throughout your stay (in a similar way to how it is normal to buy Thai and Philippino girls drinks before a bar fine)? If yes, should I budget a reasonable amount for this?

They also don't get the a commission on drinks so there is no up charge. I by the chic I am with or one I have known for awhile the occasional drink..but nothing like I spend on drinks in Asia.
If you stay there for a week, many chicas will ask you to buy them drinks because you probably have already booked appointments with more than 10 chicas. I even bought drinks for Marmasan a few times because we chit chat a lot. But, there is really not much pressure at all.
But the real problem is that BB is a very small place. It becomes quite boring quickly. There is not much going on during the day. So you have nothing to do but to drink. I barely drink at home, and drank quite a lot at BB. I will bring work to BB. It is not because I want to work that hard. It is more about I need to something to occupy my mind.
Unless you can deal with the boredom, you need to budget more for your own drinks.

I work for myself, so I always have something I can be doing, as long as I have my laptop. So I don't expect to get bored. Plus I am hoping to spend some of the time chatting to the other guests, just as it is always fun to chat to fellow mongers in the FKK's, swapping stories and experiences of practicing our hobby around the world. If anyone of you are going to be at BB the week 17th June to 24th June please PM me and let me know.
One other question. I do not speak Spanish, so I am expecting communication with most of the girls will unfortunately be somewhat limited. I do speak pretty good French, but I am guessing there are very few girls, if any, at BB from Haiti? (where at least with these girls I could have a longer and more detailed conversation). Hopefully some of the girls will be able to speak at least some English.

Whether it be BB's or FOD, one has to remember that the gate isn't locking you in the place. Guys that say they are bored there are only bored there because they are either afraid to leave, lazy or cheap. There is a beach within walking distance of BB's with some small beach bars and restaurants and there is a golf course nearby also. It is very expensive to take a taxi out of there but if you get a couple other guys to share a cab it isn't. If you have some spanish skills you can take a moto out to the highway and take the local means of transportation that is dirt cheap. And if money is no object take a girl with you, she'll know her way around. But again, if you are like most guys that stay at these places you, not you personally, are too cheap or scared or lazy and then blame it on the establishment. What are they supposed to do, have freeking donkey shows every afternoon?

[QUOTE=Manizales911;1574380]But again, if you are like most guys that stay at these places you, not you personally, are too cheap or scared or lazy and then blame it on the establishment. [/QUOTE]I traveled extensively in Asia (Korea was a strange place where I thought the locals were really crude with the women) but because of lack of time and total unfamiliarity with the languages, almost always, went with paid companionship. Whether it is the ubiquitous massage or dance bar or whatever. My experience in Koln, Frankfurt, Hamburg, London, Glasgow, Milan, Lyon, Zurich, Sydney, Auckland, heck, Tahiti are the same. Pay as you go. It is only in the DR (and I have not done South America), I first ran into regular locals (granted they may not, by some definition be that regular but I pay always sometimes under the subterfuge of a "girlfriend"thanks partly to the language but in general to a different attitude. Indeed, I cannot quite fathom as to why the DR women give "it" away so easily, despite all the issues not excluding the catholic prudishness and lack of access to birth control. It is in the DR where despite my age, I have been able to say " Hello, I love you. Won't you tell me your name" when I was lucky enough to get into the pants of a girl fished direct from the Uni. Someone I have never seen in my life half an hour before or since.
But thanks to that, I have very little time to get bored as I have to chase skirts and because it is not guaranteed, for a week or so it is fun. Moral of the story, knock on wood, so far, I have not seen the insides of BLACKBEARD or a casa. Long live the DR women!

They have grown up with the facility to push a switch and instantly make something happen, so they cannot function without external stimulation. Older guys have more internal resources. They have also probably been through enough in their lives to know that lying next to the pool in the warm sunshine with a cold drink at hand, and surrounded by attractive, half-naked girls who are immediately available at a modest price, is not the worse place to be.
My first visit to Blackbeards (and the DR, and the Americas) was eight years ago. I was there for two weeks and was not bored for a second. I could have stayed another month, no problem. Talking to the other guys was a big part of the experience, especially as it was all new to me.
I have never stayed there since, because once you know your way around there is better value to be had, but I would never knock the place. It is a great introduction to the island. Maybe it would take it to close down for guys to really appreciate the great facility it was. Let's hope that never happens.
At that time there were five Haitians working there, Nadine, Rosaline, Felicia, and I forget the others' names. They all shared a bungalow nearby. Felicia was working at FoD recently, maybe still is. Sweet girl and still attractive, but now 27 so way past my age-range.
I imagine the fact that there are none now is down to labor regulations rather than any prejudice on BB's part.
As Manizales states, the cost or inconvenience of getting out of Blackbeards (and, more importantly, of getting back there after dark) is the one big minus point there. If you have itchy feet and a tight budget, stay somewhere else like FoD. A lesser point is that the beach, though pleasant to walk along, is not great to swim from, but I have not noticed that sea-swimming is that important to many mongers.

I see you only have two weeks before travelling. I urge you to learn just the basic greetings, please / thank you, excuse me, etc and numerals. Even that little helps. The girls will enjoy teaching you names of body parts in Spanish. And start thinking in pesos now, not in your currency.

[QUOTE=Qw123;1574740]OK, this I did not realise. I was hoping it would be easy for me in Haiti, but it would appear not to be the case.[/QUOTE]I was writing of the DR. Haiti would be somewhat different. You would have a bigger range of people to talk to, so more French speakers among them. You would be dealing with officials, shop owners, taxi drivers, police, bank staff, and those in the hospitality business who would all have to know good French. Haitians in DR are mainly from the underclass with little or no education.
Even so, Haitian putas in the DR have more education on the whole than Dominican putas. Because in the DR anyone who wants to work can get at least some sort of job, however shitty, whereas in Haiti there are millions without work who are glad to work for a pittance, which is why they risk a lot (and pay a lot by their standards) to come to the DR.

They have a few weapons, items, from the period in a couple of displays. A local guy gives a history of the place for a buck or so. You can buy a cold beer from a vendor outside on the malecon.
Additionally, for the more bored / ambitious, (its a drive that takes a few hours) but on the western end of the north coast is a place called La Isabela; (check on the internet).
It was a settlement founded in 1493 by Christopher Columbus. The foundation to his home is available for viewing. A small museum has items from the period. Very overlooked. If it was in the states, they would have made it a theme park...

Okay, its pretty obvious I have time on my hands.
Attaching a few pics of BB Chicas from "back in the day".
Louisa / Mueca / Barbi. The chica with the mind-blowing tetas. Any old-timers know how she is these days?
Annie. Extremely cute, but definitely a hard-core hooker. Last I heard, she was working in a local Dominican brothel.
Yuri. A Santo Domingo native, was a sweetie, and a Halle Berry look-alike to boot.
India. A BB icon.

[QUOTE=Manny51;1578136]Now this is what I am talking about. This girl Billy is MUCH prettier than any photo I have seen of any BB girl for years. Why are guys so high on BB and so down on FOD?[/QUOTE]I think the problem is more related to management / customer service than the girls.
Many girls have worked at both BB and FOD. The girls change over time, but the quality of girls at FOD has improved and is on a par with BB.
I have had very good times with girls at both places.
Since it started under "Dominican Billy" back in 2004/5, FOD has had problems with effective management.
BB has evolved over the same time, and has managed to work out most of the bugs, though problems surface from time to time. Its business model is working pretty efficiently, and is well above the typical DR. Difference is, BB usually makes a good effort at fixing the problem.
Unless it has changed, the food was very good and reasonably priced.
With respect, most DR businesses will provide poor or half-assed service, and thinking all tourists are rich (by DR standards they are) they will overcharge.
Look at the taxi Mafia in Costambar. Their prices probably scare off a lot of business, but they refuse to charge a reasonable price.
They intimidate any cabbies from outside from picking up fares in Costambar.
Another example, at Playa Dorada, I felt like having a cigar. I asked a vendor selling from a table outside for a cigar for one dollar. He said he had none.
Trust me, he had cigars comparable to the shopping plaza next door, and there were cigars worth less than a dollar.
Damn, I would have bought a lousy cigarillo, a small cigar, - but not for over a dollar. He insisted he had no cigar for only one dollar, regardless of size.
Fine. So I bought none. He made no sale at all.
That is the perfect example of the Dominican business model, and why so many fail.
FOD has struggled through a series of owners / managers, and always seems to take the wrong direction just when you think they have finally gotten it right.
FOD has a lot of factors in its favor, chiefly being proximity to Playa Dorada. It has the potential to replace Cristal's as the "sneak away" place servicing Playa Dorada guests. Unfortunately, given its track record, it will find a way to screw it up.

I'll refrain from any comments about it being some sort of genetic trait, and I usually try to back up any assertions I make with evidence.
God, I really root for these people. They are burdened with incompetent / corrupt government at every level, and the only thing cheap in the DR is the labor of its people.
As you know, prices in the DR are not cheap, and how can a person raise a family on a $200 US per month salary? (Typical sales / office worker).
I wish I could see more working for themselves versus some exploitive boss / company.
Don't know if what I have seen is only reserved for the gringos, or whether they use it on their fellow Dominicanos.
When business is bad, raise the prices. Don't offer a temporary discount to draw new customers.
Unfortunately, if revenues drop by half, doubling the prices to make up the difference won't work.
Saw a Dominican lemonade stand just outside an all-inclusive resort.
Sign said: "Lemonade, One Glass $100,000 US Dollars".
Told the owner, "You won't sell many glasses of lemonade at that price".
He replied, "No, but I only have to sell one. "
Ba-dump-bump!

While I am confident his opinions on the matter largely coincide with mine, and his posts in this thread support that, I should have left it to him to chip in as and when he wished.
I also apologize for using the word "genetic" so loosely if it offends you. Of course, it takes thousands of years for genes to mutate. However this is a misuse which is widely employed and normally attracts no comment. If you look on the BBC sports pages you will see a reference to soccer ability being in Brazilians' genes which, if taken literally, is equally nonsense. Unless someone is a genetic scientist I wouldn't expect them to get their knickers in a twist about it.
I used "genetic" as sloppy shorthand for "endemic social practice".
But I invite you in turn to apologize for your pathetically early use of the race card. A flame war usually runs for quite a few posts before someone sinks that low. For one thing, Dominicans are not a "race", by any of the many possible definitions of that word. And the majority are guilty of the practices which I criticize, black, brown, white and all other mixtures and variations. 95% of the posters here who who have spent any time on the island, and ex-pats most of all, are familiar with the malpractices I described.
I hate the fault, not the defaulter. Like Yanqui69, I am aware of the historical reasons things are like this and how difficult it is for more than a few to break free from brainwashing by the ruling class, the church, and the military.
Almost all my spare time, and more of my money than I can afford, is spent working to help the most desperate strata of society here. I spend a lot of time in the poorest barrios and I travel by moto and carrito publico. Although a gringo will never be privy to all that goes on, I have got a better education doing that for five years than someone who has made two or three visits and stays at Oxygen and drives around in a rental. That does not qualify you to become an expert on the real DR.

I had advised the guy to email BB to inquire about vacancies on the days he had in mind.
Thanks for the price as well.
Got back from BB's Tuesday night. Overall a great few days. Saturday night was kind of strange, some local guy came in, bought a bottle of JW Black and held court at one of the patio tables. A handful of chicas decided to get drunk with him instead of "mingling" with the guests. However, Sunday was a great beach day and "encounters" over the next couple of days made me forget all about it. The food was great (try the sancocho), got to hang with some good guys and didn't think about work once. I still have a touch of "Montezuma's Revenge", no big deal.
And for the record: Mamasan Crystal, who is eight and a half months pregnant is the most beautiful woman on the face of the planet.
Cheers
She is one of my favourites. She found a German guy and moved to Santiago today to live with her family. She will be missed by many.
Sheila left today to work in St. Maartin for 6 months.
I think both of them have been there almost four years. It is time to retire. Sheila was very slim girl about two years ago, but gain some weight since last 12 mth.

The first time I met her at BB's she was fantastic, but after she realized that dudes liked her exotic looks she went downhill in my opinion. But good for her.
Her English is better than other girls. So for guys who know nothing about Spanish, she has an competitive advantage over other girls (I am one of the guys who cannot speak Spanish at all). She is intelligent enough to have interesting conversation in English, but super aggressive pushing for tips and appointments. However, if you spent time to know her, she is actually a quite good girl (not a good sex worker though). I heard Sheila, amber, and another girl (spinner type, very very good English, forget her name) are good friends.

Her face is a little fuller but in the newsletter photos she still has a killer body.
Went to Blackbeards on a Saturday. Was in PP and decided since I was so close, might as well check it out.
Didn't even realize I was walking into the Bikini Contest.
Roughly 20 girls. And about I would rank roughly 1/3 of them as 8 and above.
Girls were amazing. There were other girls not participating. Easily half of them were 7's and above.
Once the contest was over, about 2/3 of the guys there were gone. Here I thought the spectators were staying at BB's!
Got a few numbers, and left.
Returned few days later. Probably 3/4 of the same crew of girls, and just a handful of guys.
This time most of the girls were sitting by the bar chatting with each other. They of course gave smiles and winks etc. When I walked in, but the clique made it a little difficult for me to interview prospective partners.
All in all though, I think it's well worth the effort to make the short trek to BB.
Hey folks!
I'm planning a trip to DR for early next year. It will also be my first time mongering internationlly. I'm experienced here in Canada, but expect things to be quite different once abroad. I've read through most threads concerning DR and I think I have decent picture of things on the ground.
My question is, would you consider BB the best place to stay for a first timer in DR?
Is there anything I should know about the place and it's "modus operandi" that's not explicitely covered on the website or thread?
Are there any good erotic massage parlors in Constanbar or Puerto Plata?
Any other pointers you guys would care to share with a DR newbie?
Thanks a lot for your help!
[QUOTE=PyroPyotr;1603890]

[/QUOTE]If you have little or no Spanish, "yes".
If you have some Spanish, other options are open, though a matter of personal taste whether they are any better. If you have read as widely as you claim, you should have formed a good picture by now how we all have different preferences and priorities.
[QUOTE=PyroPyotr;1603890]

[/QUOTE]No nasty surprises or hidden downsides. The odd thing can go wrong there (this is a Third World country and putas are humans, not robots) but probably less often there than anywhere else. They have been going about 12 years under the same gringo owner (a rarity in the DR) and have ironed out most of the problems by now.
You do not say how long you will be staying. Some guys might get bored if there for more than a week and it is not the most convenient place to get out of and back to at night except by taxi, which can get expensive. But for a week or less, on your first DR trip, there will be plenty to keep you amused.
[QUOTE=PyroPyotr;1603890]
Are there any good erotic massage parlors in Constambar or Puerto Plata?
[/QUOTE]None.
Sex on the North Coast of the DR does not favor erotic massage parlors. If you want sex, pay for sex. If you want a professional massage, pay for that. Trying to get both in one session usually results in inferior service.
Once you have some experience in the DR, you will probably find the best results from picking up freelance chicas, whether full-time or part-time hookers or non-pros. Most prostitution here is from independents, who are legal, rather than organzed by pimps, who are not (though they do exist). But Blackbeards is a safe option to learn the ropes.

BB's does have a ton of new talent since I was there in May. I could not believe the turnover.

Not sure the turn-over is a good thing though. Some buddies told me the quality of talents dropped. Not sure whether it is true.

I am fairly certain the girl in the picture was not there when I was there. She does not look familiar at all. Nor was the name familiar.
I think the talent turnover was great for Blackbeards. Personally, I was tired of seeing the same girls there time and time again, and appreciate the new variety. Also, overall they are better looking, IMHO. Performance wise I would say there was no change.

They look bigger because she has dropped some weight and her body and face are thinner. The overall talent at BB is on the upswing. Lots of new tall thin girls there now. In fact a couple guys complained too many flaccas, not enough big booty type girls. I actually had hot water and decent water pressure, no electricity problems that I have had in the past. Fantastic overall experience at BB as well as FOD. Talent at both places improved.
I already purchased my tickets for a two week trip in March, and I'm trying to get all my info in order. I read this entire thread and the only thing about price that I seen was 800 dop for the room, what's the price for s / t or tln. My Spanish is good and I'm going to rent a car and hit up bc sd Sosua and other locations, I realize this probably isn't the best place for P4P in DR but I want to hit up BB and FOD just to say I've been there. Any info would help on BB or FOD.
Thanks
HI guys,
I was strongly considering going to BB for Halloween, but it turns out its full. But I heard that there are some nearby housing options, namely Jazmin and Atlantic One. Do people ever stay nearby, attend the party, and do takeout? Is that practical? Are these other places girl friendly?
Thanks!

The place Husker is talking about is an apartment building that has places to rent by the night, week, month etc. Very reasonable rates. I know people that have stayed there in the past when BB has been full.
There is a Cafe there in front called Rick's Cafe. It is no more then 2 block walk from BB.

Hey,
Recently did a week+ visit to Blackbeards and really enjoyed it. Second time I've visited, and I really tried to embrace it this time. My first trip was fun, but I didn't circulate much with the girls or with the other guests. I'd go to the bar, pull a girl for short time, have fun, then go back to relaxing. This time I was much more immersive. Spent a lot of time with the chicas. Wifed up for overnights quite a bit, spent a lot of time in the bar, drinking, buying drinks for whatever girl I was with and her friends, etc. Also met a lot of like-minded guys, shared beers and conversation.
The girls are spectacular. There are many, many beautiful girls there. Runs the entire gambit: sexy, sweet, fun, cute, stunningly beautiful, etc. I was just as impressed as I was last time. I spent time with old friends, and met plenty of new girls. All enjoyable.
Food was great, as before. I purposely hit as many dishes as I could and was never really disappointed. I'm not saying it's all 4 star, but good and well prepared. Pool was great. One of my favorite things about BB, really. You can't beat a good pool, IMO. I love to read by the pool, jumping in cooling off every 30-40 minutes. Customer service was excellent, from upper management on down to the wait staff.
The only negative was my room. Specifically, the bathroom. I had the jacuzzi suite. Room was nice. A / see worked well, plenty of space, TV worked with plenty of English channels, huge bed. But the jacuzzi sucked. Didn't look good, and the water pressure wasn't up to filling it. Next time, I'll stick with the deluxe single. I DID like that the room was right next to the disco when it was open. Very cool to be 3 feet away from the action.
If you're not a hard-charging partier, jumping off the plane and ready to party until 4:00 am, Blackbeards is a perfect alternative. Everything is cookie cutter, and laid back. You can set your own speed. Some guys like that, I know I do. Henley.
As the Dominican peso continues it's gradual slide against the USD a trusted source tells me the current BB's pricing is as follows: ST=1,800 pesos, LT (overnight) at 3,300 (note the 300 peso discount.) Currently no discount offered for their daily "happy hour" attraction. That used to cost 3,000 for two chicas instead of 3,200 if pounded out separately. No word yet if their jacuzzi BBBJ (no leche) for 500 pesos is still at that price. Current exchange rate at Jenny's market hovering near 45 pesos to the USD. Therefore, a ST session will set you back about $40 USD and LT=$73.33 give or take 50 cents. At BB's previous ST / LT pricing of 1,600/3,000 the chicas would earn ST=$35.55 and LT=$66.66 at today's exchange rate. I'm sure most of you guys can afford this modest increase. After all, they're human and have to eat, pay their babysitters, and get their hair done. Guests will be briefed on arrival at the front desk about the new pricing in effect. Here's a few pics from previous trips to set the mood. Enjoy. P.S. Note all box pics were taken immediate post blowout.

I was lucky to be there with some hard partying New York dudes, that had a party in their suite. That made it so much more fun, otherwise it felt like a prison sort of- besides fucking the chicas of course. LT then was 2000. I see the prices have raised. I hear LaRomana is much nicer than Sosua.

Eight years ago Blackbeards' prices were 1300 for ST. That would be 1820 by today's exchange rate.
Eight years ago Blackbeards' prices were 2400 for TLN. That would be 3350 by today's exchange rate.
So ST has remained the same in real terms and TLN is cheaper.
We were only discussing Blackbeards but a similar justification could be made for chica price increases generally in the DR (and probably for Blackbeards' room and food prices). Just harder to compare apples with apples because of the range of chicas and variable pricing away from Blackbeards.
From living here over that period I can confirm that prices generally for food, rent and other necessities have risen by about 40%, that is to say, have remained roughly stable in comparison to the dollar.

I've been back from my recent trip for a couple of weeks now. I don't now what to write, that hasn't been written already about BlackBeards. The food menu is still the same it has been since the dawn of time. I rarely eat a meal other than breakfast there nowadays. Not because the food isn't good, but after 20+ trips I am pretty much tired of everything on their menu.
As soon as I walked in Tim informed me of the price increase with girls, not sure I really agree with there rationale, but whatever, can't change it so I didn't really have any choice but to deal with. Still paying less than $40 for a session.
I saw a lot of the same faces from previous trips. Some that had come back after some time away. I. e. Roni, Betty Boop, Angela. Just to name a few. My favorite, Anise, was still there thankfully. Several session with her, 2 with Viance as well.
The weirdest part of the trip was my last night, I took a girl that had started that night, she didn't really speak any English, but what the hell. Well, she may have been new to BB's, but it wasn't her first rodeo. Things were going along well, and then out of nowhere she became possessed. No other way to describe it, she was stark raving mad, ushered her out of my room finally. No leech on my final night. I grabbed Anise in the morning for one final send off, and was off to the airport, and back to the states.
All in all it was a good trip.

She is a Bruja or "brooha" (witch in Spanish). I hope you told Tim about this so they can schedule an exorcism to drive out the evil spirits or just get rid of her. Maybe a Vodoo or Santeria ritual could fix her problem. I once met a Bruja on a trip to Sosua. I managed to nut the demonesa anyway, then I ushered her out after she tried to climb inside my minibar naked laughing all crazy and shit. You must sit cross legged in a circle of burning Mamajuana soaked incense for 3 hours while watching vile porn drinking some of Tim's favorite rot gut rum and spitting some out on a freshly killed chicken every 3rd sip to be thoroughly cleansed of her evil spell. See you soon on our next trip. You got this man! Here's my Bruja's pic.

I'm heading to Santo Domingo today after 2 days at Blackbeard's. Except for a cold that has kept me in my room, I've enjoyed my stay. Feeling I'll was probably a good thing. It's very easy to go over budget here.
Room was nice and comfortable with no real problems. Food was good, plenty of menu options in the 225 - 375 peso range. Prices are inflated a bit. Presidentes are 150 pesos, small bottle of water 50 pesos. With tax added to everything it's not a cheap alternative, but it does have an appeal.
After checking in, took a girl to my room. She spoke good English. In particular she was good at saying "I don't like that. " Went back down for dinner and after dinner brought another one up. She was better, and I had a good time. Later on I went to the jacuzzi with 2 who took turns on me. One did a very good DT. Had another good time and decided to call it a night.
Yesterday I was feeling good for a few hours. Took 2 more to the jacuzzi for some fun, but wasn't interested in bringing either of them to the room. Instead brought DT girl from day before up. She left me worn out. Turned down quite a few offers when I went down for dinner and decided I wasn't feeling well enough to bother.
Prices: ST 1800
TLN. 3300

CIM-discuss in advance, otherwise she'll avoid it at a last second. Never paid for CIM myself, happened a few times with couple of favorites.

At BB the staff will sometimes do whatever they can to "slow walk" your paying of the bill after a meal or a round of drinks.

First this is a much tougher a business to run then most realize, just look at FOD or the mansion in Colombia. Second too many times in the DR the next guy has no plan, no money, alternative motives, which leads to the raising of prices. Third these types of businesses are getting tougher to run and own in the DR, especially with that Carnival port being close by.

Latin American Economics 101:
1) You think your business is "worth" $2. 5 million BUT.
2) You know no one HAS $2. 5 million SO.
3) You make an agreement with someone who has $25 thousand and agrees to pay the rest over time while giving you a share of the profits in the meantime, THEN.
4) This asshole lies about the profits, and refuses to give you agreed-upon profit share anyway, BECAUSE.
5) You lied to him in the first place about how much money you were making and how much money you owed suppliers, repair people, and so forth (contractors' liens), THUS.
6) The business goes downhill due to infighting, deferred maintenance, supplier problems, etc. , HENCE.
7) The business closes down due to lack of supplies, licensing issues, failure to bribe the right people, etc. , and EVENTUALLY.
8) The original seller regains the business after a protracted legal battle, by which time the property is in way worse condition, the clientele has been lost, etc. , and FINALLY.
9) The original and now again owner finally DIES and the business gets tied up in a protracted pissing contest among all his legitimate and illegitimate offspring, WHEREAS.
10) It again remains vacant, deteriorates, etc. , until no value is left and the government, lawyers, greedy relatives, and corrupt police have extirpated all possible liquid value.
Any questions?
[QUOTE=Manny51;1739697]What? 2. 5 million US dollars! Seriously? The prior owner made out like a bandit.[/QUOTE]I've never been to BB, but I was curious to see if US $2. 5 million is an outrageous amount. So I did some quick math.
I'm guessing the sales price would include the land, hotel, furniture, inventory, etc. For a hotel with quite a bit of amenities (pool, restaurant, bar) and its size, I'm lowballing all the "hard assets" at US $900,000. Again, not an expert in DR real estate, so that's just a guess.
That'd leave a business value at US $1,550,000. Normally businesses are sold between 2 and 3 times their annual revenue. Not an expert in the hospitality industry either, so I'm guessing a 2. 5 multiple, which would be fair for an established business that's still in its prime.
That means the business has to have an annual revenue of US $620,000 - break that down to 365 days per year, equals to US $1,698.63 daily. Lowballing an average daily room plus food and drinks sold at US $80, the place has to have a minimum of 22 guests per day, to justify the sales price. (I'm pretty sure they make more than $80 per guest per day, the guys there are captive and spend loads on alcohol. Also BB might take a cut from the chicas' take?
So I think while US $2. 5 million sounds like a lot for a business in DR, it can make sense. The previous owner may be doing some seller-financing, allowing the buyer to pay back a portion in installments. Assuming the seller bought the place a while back at a much lower price, he may have recouped all his investment from the buyer's down payment, and then the monthly installment the buyer pays him back is nice gravy.
How many rooms does the place have? Generally on any given day how many are filled?

Stop thinking everybody is dumb. Business people examine the books before they buy anything. Have you heard of profit-and-loss statements? Cash-flow analysis? Not everyone gets by with "lying" nor everyone buys into lies.

A hotel in Caberete is listed at US $2. 7 mill. Sea Breeze (my spot haha Grownman) in Sosua just sold for US $1,175,000.
BB as a business has a unique value (girls on site) that other hotels don't.
I spent ten years in the hotel industry, have been a CPA for twenty years, and know not to trust any financial statements emitted in the Dominican Republic, or anywhere else in Latin America. I also understand the difference between revenue and profit.
Watch this and then think what is worth what in Dom Rep:

About 10 years ago it was a very up and coming location but now there is crime, the properties have gone into despair, and the folks who invested years ago have either died off or moved on.
I have a condo there that I don't even go to that is basically a storage. My one bedroom condo that I purchased several years ago for 60 k peaked in 2009 when I probably could have sold it then for about 140 k. Now I would be lucky to get 50 k for it.
My understanding was that BB was created years ago to cater to the emerging ex pat community that mostly purchased property back then and wanted a secret spot to bang hot Dominicanas without having to go hunting in Puerto Plata. BB was able to survive back then through secrecy and reliable ex pats and few of their closest friends. The Internet eventually exposed BB thus enabling BB to replace the dwindling ex pat community with new travelers. With the Sosua explosion and a dwindling ex pat community it's amazing BB survived at all, maybe they lasted because of John and the good customer service at this one stop location.

You forget one major outgoing. For a decade Blackbeards has been carrying on a business which is blatantly illegal, namely pimping.

Also, those girls are not on contract and, even if they were, contracts for pimping cannot be upheld in law. It would only take one scare with the police or the health department and all the chicas would vanish overnight. It happened at Field of Dreams and Passions in different circumstances.

There are many customers in their restaurant from all over Costambar.[/QUOTE]Sometimes, yes. But I have been there twice this year to meet and chat with friends.

[QUOTE=Bliadun;1740098]There are many empty lots and houses in Costambar, many of those are on sale for many years.[/QUOTE]True. Costambar was created as a gated estate for rich Dominicans and for gringos. It has steadily deteriorated. There are reasons why it has failed. It's "off the map" location and the scruffy beach must be among them and one constantly reads completes about the electric, water and garbage services on DR1.
Don't get me wrong. It is still one of the better areas to live on the North Coast, but that is not saying a lot. I think the new money is going to the Cabarete area.
To be fair, in listing its good points, Frannie omitted the 9-hole golf course. Though of mediocre quality, it must still count as a real attraction to have a golf course on your doorstep.
Sometimes in the day time place looks empty for hours, and in the evening you may need to wait for table to become available and you can see waitresses carrying another box of beer every few minutes.
I don't know what kind of sales volume they have, but beer truck re supplying the stock is one of indicators.

Anywhere else (Sosua, Cabarete, Fields of Dreams, etc) you just get in a publico, 25 to 50 pesos.
The real problem at Blackbeards is not getting out. That can be achieved with a combination of walking, moto and publico. The problem is getting back after dark once the publicos stop running.
[QUOTE=Frannie;1740385]And how do the chicas get to and from Blackbeards if they are held to ransom by the taxi mafia.[/QUOTE]Anyone who has spent any time there knows the answer to that one. Their pimps / husbands / boyfriends bring them at the start of their shift and take them home afterwards. Or, as regular customers and Dominicans, they cut deals with the taxi-drivers which are not available to gringos, paying them in cash or in services rendered.
[QUOTE=Frannie;1740405]You might be right about Costambar going the way of Detroit. I must admit I have not been to Costambar for years. It used to be rather lovely. But with the exception of Casa Marina I cannot think of an all-inclusive type resort that is not a bit isolated in one way or another. It certainly applies to most if not all in the Punta Cana region.
And why would you sit on a dirty beach when you have a nice pool and outdoor whirlpool with refreshments on hand? Much of the year it is too hot to sit on the beach anyway.[/QUOTE]Most people would disagree with you, there is a reason why ALL of the all inclusives are beach front properties. I myself very much enjoy sitting in the shade at Sosua beach, have lunch, a few beers and a swim. I will be spending my October, November and December on that beach almost every day before returning to Colombia. While I am here in the states I am almost an hour away from the beach and make the journey at least once a week.

Parkinson did a great job in terms of analyzing scenarios and various possibilities, which made sense. However, the biggest element is the unspoken of elephant in the room. The real assets are one thing and seller financing notwithstanding, the unaccounted for "asset" may also be the real liability, more so these days with the Big dog asking the smaller dogs to clean up.
On my last trip to the DR, my Santiago civie wanted to go to the beach, naturally she invited everyone she could think of. So I packed my rental Kia full. With her, her sister, sister's 2 girlfriends and a 16-year old girl cousin and off we went to Puerto Plata. The 16-year old was the only one who knew where to go, and we ended up at this beach. I only realized where I was after passing a compound with the word "Blackbeards" outside.
After sunset we went into this bar, a pretty nice one. Forgot the name but if I remember correctly was owed by a Dominican guy and his Dutch wife. Mostly expats there; a few Canadian retirees who obviously tire of Blackbeards (or Blackbeards price) were very happy that I rolled up with these girls. Excellent for me because these dudes were trying to get into the girls' pants and therefore, I didn't have to pick up the bar tab! The bar was doing pretty good business on a night that wasn't Friday or Saturday. I remember distinctly because the Canadian dudes were begging us to rent a place for the night, however the 16-year old had school the next day. Imagine their disappointment / frustration when, after rounds and rounds of drinks for the girls, I herded them into my limo, back to Santiago!
[QUOTE=Bliadun;1740317]This can happen tomorrow or 10 years from now.
I would hate to see any of these places going down. Damn politicians can fuck up any business, even if it's beneficial to everyone-hotel, chicas and customers. BB creates directly or indirectly over a 100 jobs.[/QUOTE]Whoa. Why all the discussion on BB getting closed down? I went back a few pages. Did I miss something?
If there is some bribing and palm greasing machinery that needs to be tended to, I am sure the new owner is either familiar with it or will get all the info from the previous owner. That's just the cost of doing business. I see the taxi mafia as the bigger problem, slowly choking the life out of people's interest in staying there. That plus the water / plumbing problem. Its actually the latter that bothered me the most.

Gentlelapper[/QUOTE]Hi GL.
I remember you prompted an exchange of posts about the relative merits of BB and FoD a couple of years ago. At that time I recommended FoD (perhaps because you were staying at Playa or Costa Dorada?) Since the latest changes of management I have heard nothing good about the place and would no longer recommend it.
As none of us go there, there has been no recent feedback. I will try and find out if they are still limping along.
Why did you not post in the Field of Dream section?
Weren't you the guy who was banned from Blackbeards? There has been a recent change of ownership so you might be allowed back now as the matter was trivial. Ask them.

Saludos to all from, John, the original and still owner of Blackbeards.
Apparently the Coconut Telegraph has "blown a nut" somewhere by reporting that I sold the hotel or plan to close it after 13 successful years. This is absolutely not true, and additionally, I don't have any partners either. Although I have been absent recently for personal reasons, I continue to invest heavily in improvements in all areas of the business. Just follow our newsletter for current updates.
As of last week however, I have decided to retire and sell the hotel. I guess that when I received my application for Medicare, my friends told me that it was MY time to relax, sit by the pool and drink a few beers with a good looking Chica! In the meantime, absolutely nothing will change. All of my employees are fully aware of the sale and have agreed to stay and expect that the new owner will keep them employed.
If you would like more details about the Hotel / Sale Simply Google Search "Blackbeards Hotel For Sale" and you will get what you need. The site is not completely finished so bare with us for a few more weeks.
Personally, I think the hotel is running better than ever, and now would be a great time to visit. I hope this puts an end to all of the rumors and we all look forward to seeing you soon.

The place is unique, in that it is the ONLY well-managed operation in that environment.

Salud!
Newbie here so would appreciate any input / pointers -.
1. BB is picking me up from STI, so where should I exchange US $ to pesos? Airport, inside BB or somewhere on the way?
2. I would like to minimize exchanging currencies back and forth, what is the best strategy here as few places take US $ like BB and hotel Casa Cayene in Sosua? Only time I will need pesos is for Chicas and food / drinks. Should I budget for 2-3 days and then repeat? I am in DR for 1 week with 3 days in BB and 4 days in Sosua.
3. If I get bored in Sosua, is there a public transportation to take me to Punta Cana? It is 5 hours by road so looking for economical alternatives instead of taxi. I don't want to drive in DR so car rental is not an option.
4. Anything to take for Chicas like some gifts? Looking for some GFE action as well and not just sports fucking.
5. Any places with good WiFi within walking distance of BB and near beach in Sosua? I have heard BB wi-fi is pretty bad.
6. Any wingman in Sosua during July 11-15th and wanted to guide this newbie! Drinks / lunch on me.
Thank a ton!
Sam
1. If you arrive to Costambar between 8 am and 9 pm ask a driver to stop near Jenny supermarket.
2. Exchange a little more than you think you need during stay at BB at once.
3. You'll have to use 3 different buses, bad idea for such a short stay.
4. Ebay, Amazon, Walmart and Marshalls / TJMaxx for perfume and / or clothing items.
5. Not that bad anymore, 3 Mbits is typical download speed. If it stops working try another spot 10 ft away or ask at reception for router reset.
Spend more time reading forums.

Sam[/QUOTE]You've already gotten good advice on two posts, so I'll just say since this is your first time, your impressions of BB and Sosua would be of interest.
P.S.: (If you only have a week, drop any idea of travel from Sosua to Punta Cana. Would be an all-day affair by bus.).
If bored in Sosua, suggest dropping by Field of Dreams; its at least on the way from BB to Sosua, so, doable for a short day-trip.

Sam[/QUOTE]1 has already been answered, so.
2. I would recommend exchanging $100 or so for each day you will be at BBs. Depending upon your appetites. That should leave you with a little bit left over, so you don't have to immediately change more when you get to Sosua.
3. If you get bored in Sosua, go to Cabrete or Puerto Plata, or even Santiago. You will waste an entire day going to Punta Cana. Better yet, go on one of the many excursions available. They have information at Casa Cayena.
4. Already answered, but for such a short stay, it's probably a waste of money. You might find some GFE action, if so a few more pesos is a good reward, but giving gifts up front will not get you GFE, it will get you GMM, Giveme more money.
5. I had no trouble with BB WiFi. No issues at all.
6. If you're staying at Casa Cayena, there will be several veterans sitting around at breakfast and dinner. Most will be happy to give a few tips. You won't need much. Within 200 feet of Casa Cayena you will have had at least one offer of a massage (600 DOP for 1 hour, 1000 more for a happy ending). Before you've gone 3 blocks, you'll get at least one more massage offer and 2 or 3 approaches from women on the street. At night that number goes up to 15 to 30.
The food is great at Casa Cayena, and also across the street at El Rancho hotel. Sinatra's and Baileys are good, but a bit pricey. I also recommend Chez Mon, diagonal from Rumbas (ground zero for chicas). Brittania is another choice.
In Sosua, everything is within walking distance from Casa Cayena.
At BBs besides taking a chica to your room (1800 DOP for short time, 3400 for all night) you can take chicas to the jacuzzi. Typically 2 will approach, for 500 DOP each. It's a good way to spend an hour, getting tag team BJs and it gives you a look at what's hidden beneath the clothes. What looks great dressed, doesn't always look great undressed. It's also a good test run for deciding who to take to your room.
Have fun.

That ability to enforce good behavior is a rarity. That' what you are paying for at BB, really.
The problem is that BB is pretty far from everything else. If your only desire to getaway is for non-girly fun, that is easily arrangeable by things like publicos, as I assume you would return before dark. Lots of great stuff to do on the Northern Coast -- kite surfing in Cabarete, Damajuga Falls, etc. I assume that reputable tour services would pick you up. The problem is if you want to go out to Sosua and return at night. Then you are at the mercy of the taxi mafia. But the truth is, you are better off at BB in that regard anyway. There is nothing special about Sosua, and I have never understood why some advocate it so fiercely. You'll see it when you get there. Costambar has a beach too. Sosua has more restaurants to be sure, but for the most part, they are not substantially better than what you would find in Costambar. And if you are thinking you are missing genuine Dominican nightlife, forget it. At night, Sosua is just an expat girly hunting ground. If you want to meet other Dominicans, better to hang out in Puerto Plata or Santa Domingo.
The other option is to rent a car. That topic is somewhat controversial, with many thinking that the risk is too great to ever justify it. I disagree, though I do understand their point. The risk isn't theft or violence. its the risk of being involved in an accident, as DR drivers and motorcyclists are often crazy. I have rented a car before, as I hate being couped up on vacations. I drove only in the daytime to the various tourist attractions and beaches. I went without incident, though I will verify that some Dominican motorcyclists are absolutely crazy. But most of the time, i was driving on wide open roads. When you are near the towns, just slow down alot. Give up the right of way to everyone, even if you should have it.
That being said, there are also lots of horror stories as well. I think that you should buy a tourist book about the DR, and decide what it is you want to do. Then try to make arrangements for pickup and so forth, explaning that you will be in Costambar. Try as hard as you can to get along without a car. But if it can't be arranged, I wouldn't diminish your trip for the fear of driving. But if you want to rent a car just so you can punt in Sosua, then you are definitely introducing an unnecessary hazard.

[/QUOTE]Everyplace, outside the high dollar resorts in the DR is a dump, when judged by first world standards. For someone staying at BBs, making a day trip to Sosua, just to get a chica ST, is silly.
On the other hand, the selection at BBs is rather limited and someone with high standards will quickly get tired of saying no while waiting his turn on the one or two chicas worth the pesos.
BBs is great for a laid-back, not too picky traveler, who wants to expend minimal energy. Food is pretty good, service is good, and the chicas are friendly.
There's nothing wrong with splitting a stay between BBs and Sosua. Spend a few days in each and compare. I stayed in 3 different hotels in Sosua and each room was as good or better than my room at BBs, and cheaper too.
At BBs, you might see about 20 different chicas to choose from in a given day, maybe a few more. In Sosua, at 10 am, a 10 minute walk will take you past that many chicas. At 10 pm, there's 100 or more within 50 feet of Rumbas.
My personal recommendation, for someone spending more than 4 days, split the time. Spend a few days at Blackbeard's then head to Sosua for a few days. Why limit yourself to just one experience?

But most of the time, i was driving on wide open roads. When you are near the towns, just slow down alot. Give up the right of way to everyone, even if you should have it.
That being said, there are also lots of horror stories as well. I think that you should buy a tourist book about the DR, and decide what it is you want to do. Then try to make arrangements for pickup and so forth, explaning that you will be in Costambar. Try as hard as you can to get along without a car. But if it can't be arranged, I wouldn't diminish your trip for the fear of driving. But if you want to rent a car just so you can punt in Sosua, then you are definitely introducing an unnecessary hazard.[/QUOTE]On the subject of driving, that can be very risky for a first-timer.
Observe the traffic for a while.
The locals are insane, and any accident will be YOUR fault, since you are the only one with money, and even the cops will have their hand out.
Unless you love taking chances, save for a later trip.
But it looks like the guy wants to try two different types of experience. For some people choice 50 chicas is not good enough.
BB offers several organised tours with pick up from hotel.
[QUOTE=Manny51;1743824]Just limit your girly fun to BB. Sosua is a dump, and scams abound. Just read the Sosua pages. The best thing about places like BB is that that the girls are vetted, and fair behavior is incentivized by the fear of being kicked out. That ability to enforce good behavior is a rarity. That' what you are paying for at BB, really.
The problem is that BB is pretty far from everything else. If your only desire to getaway is for non-girly fun, that is easily arrangeable by things like publicos, as I assume you would return before dark. Lots of great stuff to do on the Northern Coast -- kite surfing in Cabarete, Damajuga Falls, etc. I assume that reputable tour services would pick you up. The problem is if you want to go out to Sosua and return at night. Then you are at the mercy of the taxi mafia. But the truth is, you are better off at BB in that regard anyway. There is nothing special about Sosua, and I have never understood why some advocate it so fiercely. You'll see it when you get there. Costambar has a beach too. Sosua has more restaurants to be sure, but for the most part, they are not substantially better than what you would find in Costambar. And if you are thinking you are missing genuine Dominican nightlife, forget it. At night, Sosua is just an expat girly hunting ground. If you want to meet other Dominicans, better to hang out in Puerto Plata or Santa Domingo.

In fact, they are very simple. No way will you get lost. Its not the tourist causing the risk, its the native Dominicans.
In fact, I think that renting a car ONLY makes sense for first-timers. Its the first time that you go that you want to visit the tourist sites. But once you have seen them, repeat visitors are only there to play.
If you do get a car, then get it at the airport. The best part about renting a car is having complete control of your transportation to and from the airport. Rides to and from the airport are when people try to rip you off the most. Plus, you don't have to worry about getting to the airport late. Just get a good map, or get very good directions from the hotel you are staying at.
I have a strong suspicion that most of the people who get into accidents are driving at night or under the influence. At night, especially in Sosua, there are tons of people running randomly across the street. Lots of drunk people. Other cars whose headlights or taillights are broken. Very few, if any streetlamps. That's not to forget the few beers that YOU have had. I think that the risk driving is quadrupled at night.
If you REALLY want to see Sosua, then stay there the last night. At least that will make getting to the airport easy. Trust me, you won't be missing out.
I remember the first time I visited the DR, about 5-6 years ago. You hear and read so much about Sosua. In books, online. Investigative journalists always talk about it in expose's of the DR nightlife and "denizens of ill repute in foreign lands that threaten to infect the puritanical USA." So much that it kind of becomes legendary in your head. You just HAVE to see it. And when you get there, you are just so disappointed. Its just a few blocks of shit bars, with lots of average scantily clad women trying to get your attention. You will have read all the posts of guys who got ripped off, and you will wonder what the fuss is all about. You'll see a lot of American guys walking around drunk who need a shower. And local small restaurants serving poor versions of hamburgers and pizza.
It's not that Sosua is particularly bad. Its just that it doesn't live up to the legend. Its just a very average red light district. And after you see it for the first time, you'll wonder why anyone bothers to leave the other, more controlled environments, like BB, FOD, and when it was around, Oxygen.
But what do the rest of you think? Have things changed? I kind of wandered back into the DR forums because I have been following everything in the news about the Haitian expulsion.

During my 2 days at BBs I saw two women that I considered very attractive, and one of those was a bit of a disappointment once the clothes came off, although no complaints about her performance. The other, I didn't manage to work her into my schedule, so I can't say how she was. Most of the rest were in the okay to above average range and a few were in the I need another beer first category. Some of them were a lot of fun, but not much in the way of eye candy. Perhaps it is better on the weekends. I had a good time and may return someday, but if I had gone in with high expectations, I would have been disappointed.
Sosua is a mongering town in a 3rd world country. If you go there expecting a mix of Miami Beach and Las Vegas, you're going to be disappointed. But, if you look read the forum, do a little research, you'll find it's a relaxed little town with hundreds of available women, in all shapes and sizes. On any given day you can easily find 20 women who look as good or better than anyone you will find at BBs. Rather than having one restaurant and bar, except when the disco is open, you have dozens to choose from, with lower prices. Also, the women and hotel rooms are lower priced as well, at least some of them.
You describe Sosua as a dump, risky to visit, and I found it to be much different, and it lived up to my reasonable expectations.
For some people, the environment at FoD and BBs is perfect for them, others prefer the environment in Sosua. Just because Sosua isn't to your liking, that's no reason to unfairly trash the place.

Sosua has a notoriety that it doesn't deserve. The women are no prettier than those at BB and FOD. The beach is not particularly nice. All these things can be duplicated at other better places on the North Coast, and for a better experience. And for a first timer planning a visit, getting bent out of shape trying to figure out transportation to visit both, all am I saying is that missing Sosua is not a big deal.
The best I have ever heard is people saying that they "enjoy the hunt,' and "to each his own. " I don't get it, but fine, whatever. But my response was aimed at the first time visitor, not the veteran. I think you would be hard pressed to make a case for Sosua for the first timer as opposed to BB.
Maybe you have some fond memories of the place. I didn't mean to insult them. But think about it. This is SOSUA you are defending.

I went to Sosua for 6 days, Blackbeard's for 2 days and then spent 2 days in Santo Domingo for some sightseeing. My knowledge of Spanish is low and I'm not a seasoned mongering traveler.
Apparently the days I was at Blackbeard's was during give all the good looking girls time off week. As far as looks go, there were only 2 that I considered top notch. In comparison, the maid at Hotel Plaza Europa was better looking than any of the other girls at Blackbeard's and I'm pretty sure I could have had her for a reasonable price. Inside Rumbas, at night were easily 20 women better looking than the best I saw at Blackbeard's. I never made it to Classicos or Merengue, where the hottest women are said to be.
There's no hunting in Sosua. Just walk down the street and say "No" until you find the one you want, or sit down at any of the open cafes or bars and wait until your type walks by. If you do that in Rumbas, you will have a difficult time deciding, because there will be plenty of your type trying to get your attention.
Both Blackbeard's and Sosua are excellent options for the first time visitor. If the person doesn't want to worry about making decisions and just wants to spend his tome laying by the pool, eating and playing with the chicas, without ever having to move more than 150 feet from his room, Blackbeard's is the place. You can't go wrong and it's a great experience. At least I enjoyed my time there.
On the other hand, if a visitor likes having options and isn't afraid to venture out of the hotel, Sosua is a good place. I had a good time and I thought both of Sosua's beaches were quite nice.

Just to explain my thoughts, I think one should observe Dominican drivers a bit, especially the motoconchos. They invite death, and the gringo will pay.
A newbie needs to be aware how those idiots drive, to be aware and on guard when on the road.
True experience: I was in one town, in the left lane, with my left turn signal on, waiting for oncoming traffic to pass, to make a left turn.
Once it was clear, I began the turn, - and a motoconcho (with passenger) slammed into the driver's door, ripping off the rear view mirror.
I watched the bike, the driver, and the female passenger sliding past on the asphalt.
I was in shock, imagining jail, lawsuits, how a delay might affect my job, etc.
It was only the girl I was with that saved me. Took passengers to local clinic, so no police report, paid small medical expenses at clinic, etc.
Even got squeezed for helping the idiot pay for damages to his bike, just to get out of there.
Point is, you can bet it will not be YOUR fault, but it doesn't matter. YOU will pay.
And one needs to be prepared for the idiots on motoconchos, because logic, reason, and traffic laws mean nothing there.

Was the accident in the daytime or at night? If at night, did he have a headlight on? Had you had any booze?
That being said, why do you think that the "gringo will pay?" You volunteered to pay his expenses to avoid a nasty court thing. I would have done the same. But it didn't go to court. A police officer didnt say "well, its your fault, so you pay." For all you know, you may have been vindicated if it went through the system.
Unless there is more to the story, the lesson I take away is 1) you handled it well, and 2) always give right of way, and look behind you on turns.

From what I have read, they don't make any more money working freelance. I am guessing that they probably get a free meal out of it.
I can't think of a single reason why a woman would not take BB over the street, hence I can't imagine why the women would not be better looking. I can't explain what you saw, but I can't imagine why they would be worse. I saw them as the same in looks, but with better attitude.

No danger of street violence, robbery, sexual assault, abuse by police (or possibly by clients).

I have been to BB twice and have no plans of returning. The women were just OK. Most were 6 or 7 nothing special. Everything there is ok but not special. I will take the streets of Sosua every time. At BB you have 15 to 20 chicas laying around bored. The 2 or 3 hot ones are used constantly and are hard to schedule.

Rate her on her face, her body, with and without clothes, try to estimate her age, and rate her attitude and performance. Then go to Sosua. Sit down at Rumbas and just start rating the girls. Rate 30 or 40 of them on the visible areas, and however many you can on attitude and performance.
Here's my results from Blackbeard's, where I had some experience with 7 different girls, 1 only in room, 5 only in jacuzzi and 1 in both places. I'm sorry it's not a more exhaustive list, but I was suffering from a severe head cold those 2 days.
#1 In room. Face decent until closer inspection revealed makeup covering acne. Small firm breasts, ass a bit big for my taste. Attitude at bar excellent. Attitude in room below average. Lots of restrictions and my tastes are very tame. Quite a bit of a primadonna attitude. Performance just average. Age probably early 20's.
#2 In jacuzzi with #3 - face slightly above average. Body above average clothed, slightly below average unclothed, sagging issues. Attitude above average. Performance average. Age late 20's.
#3 In jacuzzi and room. Face slightly below average. Body average. Attitude and performance, both places, above average. Age mid to late 20's.
#4 In jacuzzi. Face excellent. Body clothed excellent, unclothed above average. Attitude and performance between above average and excellent. Age late teens to early 20's.
#5 In jacuzzi. Face above average. Body above average clothed, average unclothed. Attitude above average to excellent. Performance excellent. Age mid to late 20's.
#6 in jacuzzi. Face average. Body below average, long hairs on nipples and small of back. Attitude and performance above average. Age late 20's.
#7 In jacuzzi. Face aversge. Body below average with some weird skin growths. Attitude and performance above average. Age late 20's.
In Sosua, even though I was there longer, only 4 to rate. Between sightseeing and sampling different eating establishments, I was distracted from the pursuit of chicas.
#1 - Face excellent. Body excellent. Attitude average. Performance below average. Age 18.
#2 - Face excellent. Body excellent. Attitude Excellent. Performance Excellent with honors. Age 18 to 24.
#3 - Face above average. Body average. Attitude above average. Performance excellent. Age mid 20's.
#4 - Face above average. Body above average. Attitude average. Performance average. Age mid 20's.
As I've said, I enjoyed both places. At Blackbeard's I was much more active because there really wasn't anything else to do. It's like a nice comfortable strip joint with a swimming pool.
In Sosua I found more people to talk to, found more things to do and see and found many more choices when it came to chicas. I also enjoyed all of the people watching opportunities.
My initial plans were along the lines of BBs, although a different place with more accessible outside options. I changed my plans because of costs and because I wanted a broader experience. If I had spent my entire trip at Blackbeard's, I would probably have little desire to return. Instead, I am hoping to return, to Blackbeard's, Sosua and to experience other spots as well.

I have found that, when it comes to black women, opinions of beauty vary WIDELY. Girls that some guys complement as "thick," I find fat. I'll often go to the Photo Gallery section and scratch my head when I see guys posting pictures and waxing poetic about women I find completely ordinary. I do agree that the only fair way to assess beauty is to go and check it out yourself.
Of course there may be some women who truly prefer working on the street. Fine. But once you accept that most women would probably prefer to work at BB if they could, it behooves you to ask WHY they are not there. It may have been because they tried to rip off customers too often, got caught stealing, or failed a basic STD screen.

From my limited observations, I detected no difference in the women whatsoever. I found the women at BB, FOD, and Sosua equal in looks. The advantage of BB and FOD isn't in looks, its in vetting and the incentives for good behavior.

That being said, why do you think that the "gringo will pay?" You volunteered to pay his expenses to avoid a nasty court thing. I would have done the same. But it didn't go to court. A police officer didnt say "well, its your fault, so you pay." For all you know, you may have been vindicated if it went through the system.
Unless there is more to the story, the lesson I take away is 1) you handled it well, and 2) always give right of way, and look behind you on turns.[/QUOTE]It was daytime. I had nothing to drink.
I only paid for part of the idiot's motoconcho because he and a couple of friends would not let me leave.
He wanted more, and the friends convinced him to take my offer.
I willingly paid only for the female passenger's medical bill, which was small, to avoid any problems with her family.
IF the cops had been involved, THEY would have wanted money, and I know stories of gringos spending a day or two in jail, waiting for a lawyer or money to "fix things".
My lesson was ALWAYS LOOK. Motoconchos will appear WHERE THEY SHOULD NOT BE.
I make all course changes gradually, to allow any motoconcho I didn't see, time to move out of the way.
My luck was the girl. She knew to take control of the situation, and get everyone to a clinic fast.
Had the cops arrived first and taken charge, it would likely have been a disaster for me.
Imagine any gringo on his own, and he would have waited for the cops; and at that point, he'd be screwed.
Once immersed in the Dominican legal system, you are at the mercy of a corrupt, incompetent system, and those involved have time to get a lawyer and make claims, etc.
I think the BB, FOD and Sosua girls are all the same. Some like the security and back-up in case a gringo monger is a bit too physical or abusive while others like to bag their own prey in the streets of Sosua. They may not like the fact that working at BB they can't trick some newbie into a $200 night.
But pretty much the very same North Coast "Professional" Dominican women at each location. It would seem that if you want a non-pro you leave the compounds AND Sosua.
[QUOTE=Manny51;1744198]For all you know, you may have been vindicated if it went through the system.[/QUOTE]Yes, that is remotely possible. But even in that rare event, it would not be a great comfort after you had spent 3 days to 3 months in a Dominican jail and spent a small fortune on lawyers. Best of luck trying to get compensation from a Dominican court, not to mention always looking over your shoulder for her brothers, cousins, and boyfriends coming after you for vengeance with knives and machetes.
What does work is having a powerful contact high up in the system. A few guys here boast of having one. In some cases it might even be true. But most of us are not that fortunate.
Manny, you live in a little bubble of your own. No wonder you like to spend your time interned in the likes of Oxygen, Blackbeards and Field of Dreams where you are sheltered from the "real" DR. Seriously, it is the right policy for you.
[QUOTE=Manny51;1744319]Of course there may be some women who truly prefer working on the street. Fine. But once you accept that most women would probably prefer to work at BB if they could, it behooves you to ask WHY they are not there. It may have been because they tried to rip off customers too often, got caught stealing, or failed a basic STD screen.[/QUOTE]Here's the problem: you said, you heard from the guys at BBs that most women would prefer to work there, and from that I'm supposed to accept as fact that most women would prefer to work there.
As I see it, if you got it from BBs regulars, they got it from the girls who work at BBs, most of which probably prefer to work there. It's like standing inside a Walmart and asking customers where they prefer to shop.
Rather than assume, with nothing to support the assumption, that the majority of girls not working at BBs, would rather be working at BBs, you should stick with the data and ask why do the girls at BBs prefer that to somewhere else.
Safety and security is one possibility. I think there is a much more likely reason, less competition. My rough estimate is a 20 to 1 ratio, available women to looking me in Sosua. At BBs, it was 2 or 3 to 1. Team up with another girl for jacuzzi tag teams and now it's almost 1 to 1. With those odds, even a woman with hair on her nipples or rather grotesque growths on her hands, has a good chance of making some money.
In Sosua you get a couple of 100 hotties as a opposed to BBs 20 or 30. On weekends buses of Santiago red bones show up. I have met some girls very new to the game in Sosua.. I control my encounters with the ladies. It is true that rip offs and scams are reduced but that is part of th excitement of Sosua. Sosua has many part timers because of the constant turn over . I tend to look for this type of chica. If you speak a little Spanish you can find them. If Sosua did not exist or was shut down BBs would be a great option when got a Bently the Mercedes loses some of its luster.
[QUOTE=Manny51;1744325]Interesting, so you think that the girls are MORE hard care at BB? So in your experience, there are more part-timers, newbs to the night in Sosua?
From my limited observations, I detected no difference in the women whatsoever. I found the women at BB, FOD, and Sosua equal in looks. The advantage of BB and FOD isn't in looks, its in vetting and the incentives for good behavior.[/QUOTE]

And I got that from conversations with the chicas (more than a few). One I know very well who left years ago, told me she considered herself very lucky to be working there.
They prefer the controlled environment; safer for them on a number of levels. On the customer level, no scams, thievery, bait-and-switch, etc.
To use your Wal-Mart example, hearing it from a chica is more like asking a Wal-Mart employee, not a customer.
If the employee is positive about their place of work, I take their word for it.
Occasionally one will leave because they don't want to follow certain rules, but overall, its a very coveted place to work.
A girl can get told to leave for misconduct, complaints, or if she gets too fat, etc.
The freelancers may have their reasons for doing so, but some may be drama queens, thieves, druggies, scams, etc that wouldn't last long.
Have occasionally seen former BB chicas at FOD, for example. Given the difference in the level of business, they would not consider that positive.
When you see a former BB girl working elsewhere, its not considered a step up.
No need to turn this into a prolonged debate, just leave at "to each his own. ".
Stick with what you enjoy.

I used it as an intro, followed by reasons why it makes sense. And you just made another argument in favor, which I hadn't thought of. In fact, that's one reason I can understand why people would want to go to Sosua. I suppose that if you are staying in the DR for more than a couple of days, you can want to meet someone new.
But the thing to remember is BB isn't an open door, where a girl can just randomly decide, "Hmmm. I am going to work at BB today!" You have to get permission to work there. If I hadn't emphasized it enough, it the vetting that's the biggest advantage.
I think we are making the same case.
BTW, has anyone seen any surface effects of the Haitian expulsion? The political situation is much like the USA's problem with Mexico. I was just wondering how pervasive it was. Are there cleaning ladies for cooks at BB's getting forced out? Is it the type of people that you see everyday? Or is it more of a hiding in the shadows thing?

Haitians who have work visas will not be deported. Also, those who can prove they have been in the DR since 2010 had the chance to apply for legalization, so those who were valued employees of gringos were probably helped with that.
[QUOTE=Manny51;1744531]The political situation is much like the USA's problem with Mexico.[/QUOTE]Somewhat, but drawing parallels is not helpful. The really contentious issues are where the situation differs. For example, the US had not passed a low retroactively stripping US citizenship from those who look Mexican. Do not be misled by US media coverage. Whether supporting or opposing the DR Govt, it is full of wrong information.
I think Danilo is a humane and sensible person. He went along with the blatantly racist solution (the DR's "final solution") until he had wangled the constitution to get re-elected. Now he is assured of that, he is announcing more and more exceptions and loopholes to soften the pogrom somewhat and I expect that process will continue.
Remember, the vast majority of Haitians are in the DR because they were encouraged in by Dominicans to provide cheap labor, in agriculture, construction and hospitality. Those employers will not welcome their wage bill doubling.
As you say, it is those "hiding in the shadows" who will constitute the majority of those deported. They are not really hiding, but existing from day to day on handouts from other Haitians in places where gringos never, and Dominicans rarely, set foot.

I was also sitting with the mama-san when a girl dropped off her monthly health-check paperwork, - another benefit over the street.
Monthly checks are far from perfect, since you don't know what happened yesterday, but at least it reduces the odds of disease.

Pair that up with fried chicken and stews thickened heavily with flour, and that's a recipe for a spare tire.

I've heard it from some clients at BB.
I can do 30+years old for "breakfast" and 18 years old for "dinner" LOL. Or a mix of experience and age in a threesome.

Have you ever seen "Jerry Maguire?" Cuba Gooding said "Single moms have been to the the show. They've seen the strings. ".
Of course there are exceptions, and this doesn't apply to everyone. But in general, women who haven't had kids are more innocent. And by that I don't mean sexually naive. Single moms are more jaded about sex, because they have learned the hard way about it leads to, and how it changes your life. Women without kids still harbor some romantic vision of love and sex. Because of that, they are more open to enjoying sex. Whatever they lack in experience / technique, they make up for it with a more carefree happiness that is palpable.
And none of this even touches on the physical changes in your body after having kids, in regards to weight gain, cellulite, sagging breasts, and a lack of tightness.
Of course, you can always find hot single moms. But the truth is, they were hotter before that had the kids.

I have been going to BB's for 11 years now and have 30+ trips there. In that time I have seen all sizes and shapes. Paola was a bigger girl but was in a class that few women other than the likes of Yojanny, Hilda, India and a few others could ever hope to reach. They could have been with 4 other people previous to your date but made you feel like you were their first of the day.
Over the years I have spoken to many of the girls about working at BB's and it is always a mixed bag of answers just like with any job any of us have had. There are some days we love to go to work and then there are those other days where you want to look for employment elsewhere.
We all suffer from the "grass is greener" syndrome and the girls at BB's are no different. I am in daily contact with one of the former "all-stars" mentioned above and she is "sort of" out of the business. She looked at her time at BB's as just a job to put food on the table and to pay for her children's school. She lives with some regret and strives for happiness while trying to make ends meet.
Say what you will about BB's but it has a proven track record of success and has a sizable loyal following that does nothing but grow.

Just returned from a great trip to Blackbeard's Resort 7/23/ thru 7/30. As a couple we go usually 2-3 times a year. I know Blackbeard's is up for sale but there was no signs of panic or changes that we saw whatsoever. Our trip was just as enjoyable as our first trip back in 2008. Food was good, accommodations, no problems, had A-3 bikini room. Girls were decent, outside girls were allowed inwith proper cedula's. Made a date with a house girl that was later cancelled because she had been disciplined by the mamasan's for rule violations so she was replaced by another chica muy rapidono big deal. Plenty of chica's that will suite everyone's fancy. Couples should definitely give Blackbeard's a try. I have never once had anyone disrespect the wife in all of our visits. It's a good atmosphere. Always meet a new friends when we go there.
Thanks TH. I like it when guys post positive reports and leave all the moaning and sniping to me.

I know BB's gets a lot of repeat visits so they must be doing something right. But its up to you to make your vacation as fun as YOU want. If you want stay on the grounds and do nothing but drink and bang chicas. You can do that. If you want to explore and leave, go to Sosua, Puerto Plata, rent a car, go on a tour, whatever, you can do that. Why do other people care about what other people are doing, as long as you are having fun. Who gives a shit. If you try a place, and you don't like it don't go back. But maybe someone else may enjoy it.

I spent 7 days recently in the beautiful resort of Blackbeards. I had a fantastic time. I was greeted by name by a few girls when I walked in for registration, so that was cool. Especially since I haven't been there since January. I felt like Norm at cheers.
This was my first time visiting BB's during the low season, and it was a little different. First, not as many guests. Kind of slow for the girls, so they work harder for your attention. That was both good and bad. Many of the girls were ready to show you a good time, spend time in the jacuzzi, give a little more of a GFE experience, etc. But there are times when you want to relax, drink a little, whatever. I like BB's because you can chill between horizontal activities, taking your time on picking and choosing. It was a little harder to do that this time. But still doable. Plus, I had no problem heading to the beach for lunch and a few beers and a little breathing room.
That being said, I was a great customer! I had at least a couple of pops every day. One in the afternoon and one at night. And if I had no energy for another leche, and a chica gave me a boner downstairs in the bar, pool, or jacuzzi, I have no problem bringing them upstairs for a blowjob and a massage. And the jacuzzi! I really got into using it this trip. The girls were all into it more so than on previous trips because of the warmer weather. Over the course of my trip, I took 13 girls with me to the jacuzzi, mostly multiple girls per trip. HJ's, BJ's, kissing, etc. Honestly, I felt like Caligula. It was amazing. And dirt cheap considering all the fun I had.
My last trip, I wifed up a lot with a couple of girls. This time, I went for variety. I saw many girls this time, and didn't start re-seeing anyone until the last two days of my trip. I went back to the girls that gave me the best GFE or really flipped my switches in other ways. I did have a couple of all nighters, and that was okay, but I could of skipped 'them, to be honest. As always, I ask for por la noche early in the evening when I'm all worked up, then I wouldn't have minded if they left after I popped. Haha But whatever. I don't mind sleeping next to a hot chica south of 25.
There has been some turnover in the girls, as always. Even some of the mainstays were gone and that was surprising. But the new girls I met, whether they were new or just new to me, were great. They were all pretty girls, nice and friendly. And in general, all the girls at Blackbeards, to varying degree, are pretty. I won't break down how many 8's, 9's whatever. I know some guys get wrapped up in doing that, but it's really an arbitrary thing. It's all about what you, the individual, like. To me, some girls were stunners, some were sexy, some were fucking cuties, etc. Spinners, big titty girls. Everything was represented. Most of the girls, I think, were in their twenties, a few were in their thirties. I generally tended to go with the spinners, but I sampled whatever got my dick hard, honestly. I was there to have fun and enjoy myself. Not to try and find the mythical perfect 10.
Of all the girls I spent time with, I only had one dud. Part of it was my fault. I had my eye on this girl on FB for 2 years, and she just returned to BBs after a long absence. Beautiful eyes, stunning face. I built her up way too much in my head. But in the end, she just didn't do it for me. From the neck down, not so good. And her skills were sub par compared to the many many other girls I met there over the past 2 years. I fucked her for awhile, told her I was tired. Paid her off, then went out 20 minutes later and grabbed another cutie.
I did make a run out of "Club Blackbeards" and went to Puerto Plata for an evening. I met up with a chica I spent time with last year on a short trip I made to the Hotel Lomar. I actually grabbed a room at Lomar again, just for the night. It turned out to be a great little excursion. I've went back and forth since then about why I just didn't have the girl come to Blackbeards, but overall, I'm glad I handled it that way. It was a little more expensive, but I like to keep things compartmentalized I guess.
Blackbeards, as a hotel, is still humming in terms as service and quality. The staff was excellent, the food was great, and my room was nice. I went back to getting a deluxe single. The best style of room IMO. Very comfortable. Air, Cable, WiFi were all excellent by DR standards. The pool is still awesome (and the girls got in the pool sometimes. Also a product of the hot weather). Tim and Nico were top notch. They lined me out with cabs when I needed them, laundry, etc. The mama-sans are stellar. I believe they are the reason the girls are so awesome in terms of friendliness and overall attitude.
I ain't going to lie. I spent a lot of cash down there. I was very generous with the girls as far as spending time with them, drinks, etc. And I try to tip the staff well, even though they include some tipping on your bills. But I do alright for myself financially, and I brought the money down there to spend and treat everyone right. I was very happy with my stay and I believe in rewarding good service.
Overall, Awesome time. The place fits what I like perfectly. My next trip to the DR will most likely be a Sosua / BB's combo trip for a change of pace. But I'll do another long visit soon enough.
[QUOTE=Henley100;1772220]I spent 7 days recently in the beautiful resort of Blackbeards. I had a fantastic time. I was greeted by name by a few girls when I walked in for registration, so that was cool. Especially since I haven't been there since January. I felt like Norm at cheers.
This was my first time visiting BB's during the low season, and it was a little different. First, not as many guests. Kind of slow for the girls, so they work harder for your attention. That was both good and bad. Many of the girls were ready to show you a good time, spend time in the jacuzzi, give a little more of a GFE experience, etc. But there are times when you want to relax, drink a little, whatever. I like BB's because you can chill between horizontal activities, taking your time on picking and choosing. It was a little harder to do that this time. But still doable. Plus, I had no problem heading to the beach for lunch and a few beers and a little breathing room.
That being said, I was a great customer! I had at least a couple of pops every day. One in the afternoon and one at night. And if I had no energy for another leche, and a chica gave me a boner downstairs in the bar, pool, or jacuzzi, I have no problem bringing them upstairs for a blowjob and a massage. And the jacuzzi! I really got into using it this trip. The girls were all into it more so than on previous trips because of the warmer weather. Over the course of my trip, I took 13 girls with me to the jacuzzi, mostly multiple girls per trip. HJ's, BJ's, kissing, etc. Honestly, I felt like Caligula. It was amazing.

If I may make a suggestion, in addition to the general information and comments, please provide specifics, such as the names of the girls who were no longer there, or the names of the girls you were with, with a brief review.
Such information is of interest to others, as either positive or negative reviews are useful.
Thanks again.

I'm looking into making my first trip to BBs this January, and although I've read a fair amount from these forums, I was wondering if you guys could answer some questions I haven't been able to answer myself:
-What exactly is the TLN protocol? Is there a certain amount of pops expected? Do they stay a certain amount of time with you? Is it better to get a girl for this earlier in the evening, or does it not matter?
-Is DFK standard?
-BBBJ is standard, right?
-Has anyone been successful getting greek?
-How about pics / video? Has anyone pulled this off? How much more did you pay?
-The jacuzzi where you can test out the chicas are private right (not the big one I see on the site)? I couldn't find much info about it, I was just wondering what it was like.
-Also with the jacuzzi, does the RD $500 actually become part of the total RD $1800 for a ST if you decide to actually session with her?
-What's the massage rate? Is there an actual masseuse, or is it just one of the chicas doing it expecting to give extras? Is there a different rate for extras with this, or is it the typical ST rate? Having a massage with a good BJ sounds perfect.
-I'm younger (in my late 20's), I was wondering how much I'd stand out at BB. I don't really have a probelm if I'm the only "younger" guy there on a sex vacation, just want to know what to expect.
-Tipping? Apparently there's some governemnt mandated 10% tip in DR. Do you tip on top of that? For beers, food, the room itself, etc. ?
-Lastly, does anyone have experiencing "wifing up" while in BB? Was it with a chica there, one you found elsewhere (Puerto Plata, Sosua.), or one from Dominican Cupid? I was thinking it might be nice to wife-up for a day or two while there if it's possible at all-- maybe it'd even be nice to wife-up with a chica who can be convinced to play with some other chicas too. Thoughts?
I know that was a ton of questions guys, thanks for any answers you can give. If you can't tell I plan things pretty thoroughly. Looking forward to this though.
-What exactly is the TLN protocol? Is there a certain amount of pops expected? Do they stay a certain amount of time with you? Is it better to get a girl for this earlier in the evening, or does it not matter?
-2 pops according to rules if not agreed otherwise with chica beforehand.
-Is DFK standard?
-No, but many will do it.
-BBBJ is standard, right?
-Yes.
-Has anyone been successful getting greek?
-Yes, but not everyone will do this. Chica can quote any amount for doing this. I was quoted anywhere between 1,000 pesos to 500 bucks.
-How about pics / video? Has anyone pulled this off? How much more did you pay?
-If you convince chica that you will not put it on internet. Offering money for that can push chica away, as they may think that you do it profesionally for some porn site. Some tips if service is excellent would suffice.
-The jacuzzi where you can test out the chicas are private right (not the big one I see on the site)? I couldn't find much info about it, I was just wondering what it was like.
-Not so private, anyone can come in the big one.
-Also with the jacuzzi, does the RD $500 actually become part of the total RD $1800 for a ST if you decide to actually session with her?
-Yes.
-What's the massage rate?
-1,000 pesos per hour for professional, free from chica as a part of service if agreed with chica beforehand.
Is there an actual masseuse.
-Yes.
, or is it just one of the chicas doing it expecting to give extras? Is there a different rate for extras with this, or is it the typical ST rate?
-Typical rate.
Having a massage with a good BJ sounds perfect.
-Yes, LOL.

-Not a problem, I've seen some young guys before in there.
-Tipping? Apparently there's some governemnt mandated 10% tip in DR. Do you tip on top of that? For beers, food, the room itself, etc. ?
-This a service charge for mini bar and restaurant, not for room rate, tax is 18% and added to everything but chicas.
-Lastly, does anyone have experiencing "wifing up" while in BB?
-Yes.
Was it with a chica there, one you found elsewhere (Puerto Plata, Sosua.), or one from Dominican Cupid?
-You can, but you should expect some resentment from in house chicas.
I was thinking it might be nice to wife-up for a day or two while there if it's possible at all-- maybe it'd even be nice to wife-up with a chica who can be convinced to play with some other chicas too. Thoughts?
-Do it with in house chicas, it will be much easier.
I know that was a ton of questions guys, thanks for any answers you can give. If you can't tell I plan things pretty thoroughly. Looking forward to this though.
-Spend couple of hours reading forums, will help a lot.

The ride from the airport to BB only took about 20 minutes (not including the beer break). My first thoughts were a bit disappointing as I only spotted a few chicas as I walked thru the bar to the reception counter. After getting unpacked I opted for a short power nap. About an hour or so later I headed down to the bar for some liquid refreshment. Around 5-6 pm it picked up as more girls came in to work; many of whom were quite nice looking. Several came over and introduced themselves and welcomed me to the resort.
For dinner I had some nice sea bass with Creole sauce (not spicy). It was a larg portion and well prepared.
The Baby doll show in disco at 9 pm was fantastic. I had already chosen a girl for the night and naturally right after I wifed up for the night I spotted another one I had to have. She and another girl joined us at the bar and between the three girls they put on a hell of a show for me. Sometimes they danced on the dance floor together (or with other chicas) or did a pole dance, but there was always at least one of them giving me a lap dance and forcing my hands to ah let's say wander to a warm and moist place. Lo,. Naturally I bought a few rounds and as the night wore on the girls got a bit wild, all of them (though no nudity in the disco). If I had to guess I'd say there was about 5-6 guys and 25 or so girls. A good ratio, LOL.
I'm sure you've all seen how girls bend over and shake their asses at about 90 mph; usually to the tune of "La Pina" (which seems to be their national anthem as it was played in about every club at least once per hour, LOL). Well later in the room the chica I took for the night rode me reverse cowgirl for about 10 minutes as she shaked her ass the same way. It was incredible! After the long day, a few drinks, and some great sex I slept like a rock.
Breakfast was decent, nothing to write home about; omelet, toast, etc. Good coffee though. Self serve coffee is available pretty much around the clock. I had made a 10 am appointment to ST girl number 2 from the night before and a few minutes after 10 she showed up. We hung at the bar and chatted a bit. She confided to me that she had chatted with the other girl I had from last night and she had been told by her that I love to eat pussy. Girl 2 said she loves to have her pussy licked and was already wet just thinking about it. Before learning this I had mentioned that I wanted to try out the Jacuzzi. She suggested we go there to warm things up a bit. She wasn't kidding about already being wet. And that was before she got into the Jacuzzi . After just a few minutes of playing around we headed up to the room and had a great time. She turned out to be one of the best girls I had there during my entire stay; great chemistry and terrific sex. Too bad she wasn't bisexual or I probably would've kept her for the duration of my stay at BB.
After we were done I took a brief walk around the area and went down to the beach. Not much happening there, but did see a few cute local girls; mostly with kids. Had a late lunch at one of the local places (can't' recall the name, pic below). Goat stew, rice, salad and a beer for 290 p. The food was good and it was nice to sit on the beach and admire the scenery.
Made it back just in time for the Bikini contest. The turnout of onlookers was low; perhaps 15-20 guys (some guests and some local expats). 16 contestants paraded around the pool. All in all it was rather sedate and laid back.
Hung at the bar for a while and chatted up another girl; think her name was Estralla. Asked if she was bisexual and about a 3 some. She said she was and she called over another girl; Aida if I recall correctly. We chatted a bit and headed up to the room for ST. A good time was had by all.
After they had left I was restless, so I went to the disco for a drink. It was fairly quiet, only abou 10-12 girls and 2 other guys who were chatting with a pair of girls out on the balcony. One of the Bikini contestants was there. I told her she should have won and would certainly have gotten my vote if I were a judge. She just laughed and said she really doesn't like the contest, but it was her turn to be in it and she likes her job there, so she'll do what she needs to do to keep working there. I bought her drink and we talked for while.
Soon another girl joined us. My Lezdar picked up on the chemistry between them and I asked if they were a couple. I'm having a serious brain fart here and I can't remember their names (note to self. Take better notes! So I'll just call them girl5 and girl6. 5 told me they were not a couple per se, but they did often fool around with each other. 5, who was tall and quite skinny had a very sensuous look about her and 6, though very plain looking, has a great body; short, slender and a nice set of be+ cups. Soon they were taking turns grinding their asses against me and seductively dancing together. The girls there certainly know how to get a guy turned on. Thank the makers of Cialis as I was soon up for another round. I had been discretely fingering 5 and 6, after catching sight of what I was doing, grabbed my hand and licked my finger clean. There was no further discussion needed. I simply took their hands and led them to the room. 6 excused herself, said she needed her stuff and literally ran down to the locker rooms behind the pool. Minutes later she was back with both of their bags. Needless to say we had a good time.
After a leisurely breakfast I went down to the beach and relaxed there for a while. Came back and hung with a few IFTC and ISG board members; exchanged info and swapped war stories as we watched some football. A shout to Husker who told told me about a resto on the beach called Catamarans, which is owned by an Austrian, so I decided to head there for an early dinner. The food was great. Had black Grouper filet (huge portion), fried plantains and an extra side of rice and beans; 400 p. Catamarans is bit of a walk from BB's as it's located almost at the far end of the beach, but given the size of the portions and quality of the well prepared food it's worth the walk.
Took another set of bi-girls for a 3 some. Wild does not even begin to describe the session we had.
After breakfast did a ST, packed up and then traveled via private driver to Sosua. Cost was 2,000 p.
Continued in the Sosua thread.
Some random thoughts about BB's.
This is not a brand new shiny resort, but in general it is well maintained. They were doing some improvements while I was there (one night they were grinding out the grout between the tiles in the bar area; went on to a little past 1 am; was rather annoying). I stayed in the Jacuzzi room. The room is large, but I never actually used the Jacuzzi. I started to fill it up, but due to low water pressure I figured it would take a few hours. In addition, the tub also doubles for where you shower; the water drains slow (if take a longer shower the water will come up to your ankles) and leaves quite a bit of soap scum on the tub. As I started to fill the Jacuzzi the soap scum formed a layer on top of the water; not something I wanted to bathe in, so I just gave up on the idea. The bed was large and comfy, there's a good sized safety box in the closet, a fully stocked mini-bar / fridge (don't remember who posted, but mine did have some candy bars, LOL).
The staff was always friendly and helpful. Service at both the bar and resto was top notch. The girls were also friendly and not pushy about servicing you or about buying them drinks. However, if you did get one of them a drink they were very appreciative. I also bought dinner / breakfast for a few of them (we ate together) and without exception the girls would share whatever was left over with the other girls. Like any other work place the girls had their own little cliques, but I did not detect any animosity between them; not once did any staff member or chica have anything bad to say about BB's or each other.
As far as looks are concerned, the 20+ chicas who work there range IMHO from 3's to 8's, from light to dark and from thin / curvy to quite chubby, but as tastes are highly subjective I can only suggest you go there for yourself and decide. I will add that that the girls look much better in person then in most of the pics in BB's newsletter. I almost didn't even recognize one chica I was with whose pic was in a recent newsletter (Bikini contestant). Talk to the mamas an, she knows her girls, keeps them in line and can probably (within reason) accommodate any special requests.
I know some will argue that there's no challenge, no "thrill of the hunt" or maybe they might even be afraid of not finding a girl they like, but for me, after coming off a grueling 14 week work contract, it was exactly the type of place I needed and the selection of girls did not disappoint me. In fact I was tempted to return for a few days before I left as there were a few more girls there I wanted, but did not have time for. Although I may not become a regular visitor to the DR, BB's will certainly see me again every time I do visit (as long as they at least maintain the current standards; especially if the place does get sold).

[/QUOTE]Guys have been complaining about that jacuzzi for the nine years I have known Blackbeards. I have never heard of one person getting good use out of it. I don't know why the management do not rip it out. They could put in a sex chair instead if they need a special feature as an excuse to charge more.

[/QUOTE]You certainly sold me on BB. I always thought their average quality is better than Sosua's average quality. I may have to give them a try next time!
Thanks for the efforts you put into your reports!
I have stayed there twice and have no desire to go again. The girls were fine but not outstanding. What I did not like is the girls are a captives. 10% of the girls get 90% of the action. Most seem very disinterested. As soon as you get a nut they are putting their panties back on looking for the next guy. Usually there 2 or 3 nice girls out of the 20. The 8 or 9 guys in the place are all trying to get the same girls. However when I get to the point where I can no longer have swag BB might be the place. Rumbas has 3 times the girls on Monday that BB has on a Saturday night.

[QUOTE=Parkinsons;1803814]You certainly sold me on BB. I always thought their average quality is better than Sosua's average quality. [/QUOTE]I do not have a dog in this fight. I have defended both Sosua and Blackbeards at times and also criticized certain aspects of both places.
But your comment, while true, is not very helpful. Averages are not relevant in this comparison. Let us say, hypothetically, that:
Blackbeards has 10 "8"s, 10 "7"s, 10 "6"s, and 10 "5"s. Total: 40 chicas.
Sosua has 10 "9"s, 25 "8"s, 40 "7"s, 40 "6"s, 40 "5"s, 40 "4"s, 40 "3"s. Total: 235 chicas.
Blackbeards would clearly have the higher average quality, as you rightly claim. But that is irrelevant, because Joe Monger will simply ignore everything below "7"s in both places. All that matters to him is that there is a greater choice of "7"s and above in Sosua.
Both places have their advantages depending upon the monger's budget, mobility, street smarts, and (above all) knowledge of Spanish. But quality of chica should not decide his choice of venue.
We are all different in our resources and requirements. Much as I admire Blackbeards, I would never take a chica from there. Why? Because I only go with haitianas and there have been none there for the past several years. Not an issue for 98% of you, but as I say, we all have our peculiarities.
Thanks for the detailed reporting on your entire trip. It made for great reading. And I'm glad that Blackbeard's was one of the highlights. I couldn't agree more.

However, if you did get one of them a drink they were very appreciative. I also bought dinner / breakfast for a few of them (we ate together) and without exception the girls would share whatever was left over with the other girls. Like any other work place the girls had their own little cliques, but I did not detect any animosity between them; not once did any staff member or chica have anything bad to say about BB's or each other.
As far as looks are concerned, the 20+ chicas who work there range IMHO from 3's to 8's, from light to dark and from thin / curvy to quite chubby, but as tastes are highly subjective I can only suggest you go there for yourself and decide. I will add that that the girls look much better in person then in most of the pics in BB's newsletter. I almost didn't even recognize one chica I was with whose pic was in a recent newsletter (Bikini contestant). Talk to the mamas an, she knows her girls, keeps them in line and can probably (within reason) accommodate any special requests.
I know some will argue that there's no challenge, no "thrill of the hunt" or maybe they might even be afraid of not finding a girl they like, but for me, after coming off a grueling 14 week work contract, it was exactly the type of place I needed and the selection of girls did not disappoint me. In fact I was tempted to return for a few days before I left as there were a few more girls there I wanted, but did not have time for. Although I may not become a regular visitor to the DR, BB's will certainly see me again every time I do visit (as long as they at least maintain the current standards; especially if the place does get sold).

[QUOTE=Pip Jaeger: one for the Cups; Bikini contest lineup QUOTE Hey thanks, PJ! I just got back from eight days in Santo Domingo and will post a report in that thread!
[QUOTE=OldKool;1803841]I have stayed there twice and have no desire to go again. The girls were fine but not outstanding. What I did not like is the girls are a captives. 10% of the girls get 90% of the action. Most seem very disinterested. As soon as you get a nut they are putting their panties back on looking for the next guy. Usually there 2 or 3 nice girls out of the 20. The 8 or 9 guys in the place are all trying to get the same girls. However when I get to the point where I can no longer have swag BB might be the place. Rumbas has 3 times the girls on Monday that BB has on a Saturday night.[/QUOTE]Blackbeards maybe good for novice monger as well as mongers who like all inclusive atmosphere which means everything is provided for and no haggling over price. Personally I like thrill of the chase and if I find a GFE like to keep her and travel with her which is not possible in BB.
There are plenty of friendly girls in Sosua. As everybody knows attraction between people varies. But I have found many nice girls who give good service. Of course there are many stuck up girls demanding more money and offering lousy service but you take good with bad. Ultimately good girls do make a good impression you remember and want to go back again.
Am going for my first time to BB in 2 weeks. Kind of have an idea what to expect. I have been to Sosua before and am looking forward to a quieter more relaxed atmosphere at BB.
My question is what else is there to do in Puerto Plata at night. What other bars or places that are worthy the cab ride from BB?

If a week or more then, yes, you will want to get out of Costambar now and then. But most people want to "escape" in the daytime when it is deadly quiet. You could visit the beach at Cofresi if a beach guy (the beach at Costambar is okay for walking along but not great for swimming). You could take a trip up the Teleferico (cable car).
I presume you are not looking to pick up putas in Pto Pta? Not a lot of point in paying a small premium to stay at Blackbeards in order to have putas at hand if you are going to search for them in Pto Pta.
But if you want to just socialize with non-putas, the bars along Avenida Luis Ginebra are where the middle-class bright young things hang out. Or a more socially-mixed crowd in Calle 16 Agosto.
If you want an authentic local experience which you cannot get in Sosua or elsewhere in Pto Pta, visit La Embajada (I think it is still called that but it changes its name more often than I change my underpants). It is on the Costambar side of town, fifty yards along Penetracion towards El Muelle from the junction with the main highway from Costambar. It is where I spent my happiest hours when young (still under 70, I mean). The chicas are mostly fat and plain but you get the rare gem. I am still living with one of the latter group five years later. Be aware that it is a real low dive. My friend said that he had "lost the will to live" after visiting the gents toilet so make sure you go before entering the joint. You can dance bachata and merengue on a tiny dance floor. The air is smoky and the music deafening (though I have suffered worse in Sosua). Drink prices are cheap, of course, because this is where the underclass go. Be prepared for police raids (no problem if you have a copy of your passport) and the occasional fight with flying bottles once near closing time.
Of course, there is always Crystals. But why pay inflated drink prices to look at chicas who are no better than those at Blackbeards, just have more make-up?
What about dancing? Are you a Latin dancer? There are places for that.
Goes without saying you will need some Spanish for all the above (except the tourist stuff like the cable car). If you have no Spanish you will find it difficult to get around and will lay yourself open to scams. In this case I would stay on campus.

Anyone ever hang out at Blackbeards for New Years? I got that week free. Was thinking of heading down there. Do the girls come to party? Or do they spend time with famiily?
I've been to BB's at least 5 times during New Years Eve. Management does a good job of making sure there is pussy at night during NYE. They all party upstairs in the disco, dancing, watching the ball drop on Santo Domingo TV. But, about one second after midnight every single one of these chicas heads right out the front gate onto the long line of moto conchos waiting to take them back home to their families. Years ago my team got stranded there on NYE when the chicas all walked out earlier as if to make some sort of labor action. They all paid the fine on their next day back to work for violation of work rules. Since then it hasn't been a problem. Finding a TLN might be tough on NYE so plan ahead. I've always found New Years Day to be fairly quiet and relaxing and in my experience the hotel seems to empty out a bit for a couple of days before new mongers start arriving again. My wings and I just went with the flow and adapted. The pussy count might be a bit down on New Years Day but spikes right back up the next night. You should be fine.

Saludos,
I used to go to BB's regularly for a few years, but haven't visited in quite a while, so am not familiar with the chicas currently there.
I also noticed that compared to a few years ago, there haven't been as many reviews on the chicas, or trip reports in the BB thread.
Can any recent visitors provide reviews?
Any recommendations for chicas with good / great oral skills?
Any names to "not miss" and conversely, any names to avoid?
Lastly, recommendations for bi chicas for "happy hour" partners?
Pics of the same?
Much obliged, and best wishes to everyone for 2016.
Gracias.

My favorites at BB as a matter of personal opinion are Valeria (great oral skills), Hilda (fun and nice GFE), Yaris (tall & pretty) and Betty Boop (fun and GFE).
The choices are great and as usual it is very difficult to judge a girl from talking to her in the bar area. My recommendation is to test drive in the Jacuzzi. If you don't like her simply give her 500 Pesos and move on or if you like her just take her to your room.
I really enjoy the Jacuzzi. It is relaxing and you get a good feel for the girl. I do have some nagging doubts though on the water quality and possible spunk floating. Have not seen any yet but at the same time I haven't looked real hard either.
Keep in mind the 500 pesos entitle you only to some play. No finish. If you want the girl to finish you off in the Jacuzzi you will have to pay the regular rate!
What I enjoyed at BB is the absence of any drama among the girls. At least what is visible to the guests. I also like that they have to turn in their phones at the beginning of their shift. This way they focus a lot more on entertaining guests.
Rooms at BB are basic but very clean and service is excellent. I also like the fact that you are in a safe area and can walk to the beach or nearby restaurants.
BB is a lot nicer then FOD (Field of Dreams) and I would combine BB with a night or two in Sosua where there is crazy nightlife with tons of freelancers and great party atmosphere. From there you go to BB for a few days and just chill!

I had first gone to BB back in 2005, and went regularly for a few years, but haven't been back lately, so know nothing of the current generation of chicas, and the latest protocols.
Familiar with the hotel, though, and think its an island of excellence in the DR.
Only hope the new owners can keep up the quality of experience whenever that happens.

Hey guys,
Wondering if anyone can help.
Planning a trip next week for my birthday, Jan 26th onwards. I was wondering if anyone knows anything similar to Blackbeards in any other countries? Namely South East Asian countries or possibly Brazil / Colombia. Maybe even India? Though my very recently ex long time girlfriend is Brazilian. So I could probably do with something new LOL.
Not Germany, as it will be too cold. I am looking for a beach and other things to do, but the Blackbeards set up is appealing as I do not have endless days to hunt, which gets quite boring when you're on your own anyway. Nothing worse than walking up and down to the same spots without a plan, seeing talent that you're not interested in and going home empty handed. Especially on ones birthday!
You can RTFF all day and night, but as this could be any country in any part of the globe it is difficult to know where to start. I have been reading hours upon hours but can't quite seem to find anywhere of a similar nature. I'm sure some vets could offer up some advice. I may just end up going to Blackbeards, but it would be nice to try somewhere different as I have done DR now, and I am trying to visit as many different countries (and flavors) as possible before I do repeat trips.

Big fan of BlackBeards here having gone 10 times so far. My usual BB's wings and I just got back from our 2nd trip to the Mansion last week. Don't get me wrong, we'll be coming back to BB's but the Mansion in MDE and also El Campo Alegre in Curucao are the only other places in the western hemisphere that compare in some fashion to BB's. BB's is in a class all by itself but the Mansion has its advantages. My full trip report is in the Colombia: "Medellin" and "photo gallery" threads. Also read "Casa Blanca" (old name for the Mansion) thread. Enjoy the pics. Geo.

Not familiar with Asia but Costa Rica has some good places. San Jose has hotels La Amistad and The Sportsmen Lodge both about a 2 minute walk apart. La Amistad offers a decent "all inclusive" all you can eat / drink and is guest friendly and the Sportsmen lets the chicas enter on their own whereas La Amistad doesn't but you can escort them in. For a beach scene the whole monger world knows about Hotel Cocal at Jaco Beach. Just read those threads in the CR section and you'll be good to go. The beach is a dump at Cartagena, CO. Read that thread for info on the scene there.

Now for the bad part: The girls at Del Rey and other spots want cash up front, do condom blow jobs and rarely do TLN. They say "cien" before they give you their name. Now you are prepared for CR.

Maybe you don't see that many people swimming is because there aren't that many people there during the middle of the week. I would estimate that beach is a mile from one end to the other and you may only see 50 people . I've seen many locals in the water though . There are two young boys I see go out and spear fish and lobster in the reef right there. The reef is teeming with life. Lots of cool stuff to see!
Thanks for all the excellent advice. However in the end I went for Rio, Brazil.
I figured although the set up may not be exactly like Blackbeards, it was just something I had to cross off my bucket list! Couldn't think of any place better than the beach in Rio with a couple lovely chicas to spend my birthday LOL. With enough beers and girls I will create my own 'mini Blackbeards' at the spot where I am sitting.

In the recent BlackBeard's newsletter, they reported that their chef of 10 years, "Gringo," has been suffering from kidney failure.
As a result, he has had to leave work, and is getting dialysis treatments 3 x a week.
He and his wife, Adriana, a waitress at BB, have 3 kids to provide for and their situation is critical.
All he can do is hope for a kidney transplant, but the Dominican health system will provide little assistance.
Those of us not fighting a life-threatening illness can show our gratitude for our health by lending a hand to someone who is facing just that.
A chance for all the high-rollers to "make it rain" when it can really count for something.
You can contact BB by email for details and instructions on how to help.
Just doing the right thing.

I find this kidney failure problem in the DR is rampant. A 33 year old I know had had to remove one kidney and I hear about this kidney pain from many who are a lot younger. I have been told that one key reason is the Dominican' affection for all things soda and its phosphoric acid content. They also have stopped drinking water altogether. I wonder how true is that in terms of medical science but it certainly is something I come across and often.

I wonder how true is that in terms of medical science but it certainly is something I come across and often.[/QUOTE]I can only speculate that they don't drink lots of water.
When you have to buy bottled water, one tends to drink less than with potable water available from the faucet.
Drinking water doesn't become a habit.
Life is hard enough there. Their diet doesn't help.

Personally I drink tap water in the US and use it to make iced tea by the cold brew process and drink it every day, but huge numbers of Americans won't drink tap water and the supermarkets are full of bottled waters. I don't think this additional expense makes people drink less fluids overall. A five gallon bottle of water refill costs 35 pesos in the DR, which is less than a dollar. The same thing costs several dollars in the US, so the price of bottled water is higher in the US by a factor of at least 750%.

Every Sunday I take five one gallon jugs to the machine that does the reverse osmosis thing and it costs 30 cents a gallon in Miami. Incidentally I see people lift the tray and put 5 gallon jugs in and they just pay the 30 cents times five or 1.50 for five gallon refills.
Good luck Gringo, hopefully everything will work out for you.
[QUOTE]Every Sunday I take five one gallon jugs to the machine that does the reverse osmosis thing and it costs 30 cents a gallon in Miami.[/QUOTE]OK, that is interesting. I had just seen the 5 gallons jugs in Walmart with the price posted as $7. 50 for a refill, but perhaps no one actually uses them if there is a cheaper way to refill, though they have gallons of water on the shelves for at least a dollar in disposable containers, and a lot of people buy the small bottles of water that can sometimes cost as much as $1. 50 each in the gas station. Small bottles of cold water sell for about 10 pesos, or 20 cents US in the DR.
As far as drinking tap water in the US, I guess it varies. I grew up in England and at that time every single person I ever knew drank the tap water with meals every day of their life anywhere in the country, or used it to mix with "orange squash" or used it to make tea, of course. The water supply in the US seems to be much more uncertain and each local government area has its own supply. I have not had any problems drinking tap water anywhere in Florida, including from my own well for some years, but if I was in a place where the water was not drinkable, it would be quite a drag to have to haul several gallons home each week.

Most people need the big five gallon jugs to take to the cheaper machines so Walmart jacks up the price knowing you will take the jugs elsewhere and won't bring them back. I like the machines because they are serviced regularly with the date on the machine. When in the DR I always stick with the brand names like Dasani and Evian. I don't trust the no named water bottles in the DR unless I have no other choice. The smaller one gallon jugs I change out every 3 months because there are some people who say using the same plastic repeatedly has health concerns also.

The water was safe to drink but it tasted terrible unless it was cold due to the water treatment process. We always had bottle water in any of several forms in the house. Once I moved out of my parents house it was always bottle water delivered or the filters you put on the faucet the the ones in the pitchers. When I'm in Las Vegas I use the pitchers.
I've noticed that when given the option, dominicans seem to want to drink almost anything before resorting to water. Anytime I offer a dominican a drink they never choose water. AFC only began to drink water after she was told too. She started having severe headaches and after extensive medical testing found some problems, she learned that drinking more water was one of things that would help her. Most dominicans I know drink bottled water and use it for cooking. It's delivered their homes in any number of ways. I use the brand Riazul. I purchased the 5 gallon bottles and now I have them refilled for 18 pesos each at the plant. It works out for me since when I'm in town I take AFC to work. And the plant is right on the route and open for business when I return. For convenience I have a water cooler for cold or hot as I need it.

Most would choose a high-sugar soda over water. And as cited earlier, diabetes and high blood pressure are common; both of which would be aliviated by consuming more water.
In a country with chronically non-potable water, it does not become a habit, so they become accustomed to drinking alternatives. The bottled stuff may be for coffee, cooking, etc, but rarely used for just drinking.
Back to the original point, I hope Gringo at BB gets some assistance from the board. Those already staying at BB might consider giving his wife, Adriana, a very healthy tip to help the family.
Hi all,
I have been several times in DomRep (Boca Chica and Sosua) but this was some years ago, last years I was visiting Pattaya.
But I would like to meet some Latinas in my next holiday and so I am wondering if Blackbeards is good to visit in July as this is low season, are there girls there? How many girls normally are there?

Powdered milk, evaporated milk, etc. Personally I have always made coffee in the DR with tap water and also used the tap water for cooking. If you are going to boil it anyway, that should destroy any lurking amoebas.
Dominicans drink little or no iced tea, which I drink in huge quantities, and you can hardly find large sized teabags in the supermarkets, but that is their loss. As well as the usual 5-gallon bottles of water that are seen in every home, the 10 peso bottle of cold water is the cheapest cold drink that can be bought when away from home and is available everywhere.

I live in Pto Pta now, but when I lived in England I would never visit for less than two weeks because I wanted to amortize the air fare and hassle over more days, and I always preferred four weeks if the cheap flights were available. Also I was retired, so I was not losing earnings.
But if you have a short and cheap flight from the USA, why not for three days only?

Have a quiet drink, smoke a cigar, walk to the local, nearly deserted beach, or flirt with the girls.
Starting Thursday, it picks up considerably, and the weekend crowd starts arriving Friday.
Loud party / events well into the night on Friday and Saturday. If you are the type who no longer parties overnite, bring earplugs.

The events like the Bikini Contest, Miss Universe, etc are on the weekends, if you are interested.
On the plus side, its a free show that ranges from titillating to raunchy. And many girls come in to watch and cheer for their friends, so you can scope out a lot more talent.
For a later time. Just approach one you like, or get an introduction, ask the mama-san, etc.
On the other hand, during these events, everything and everybody is occupied, so in my opinion, it deprived me of several hours of potential "play time. ".
The bikini contests are during the mid to late afternoon, so consider having an early session, and use the show time to rest up, and scout out a future date.
For these reasons, as well as a working clientele, the weekends tend to book up first, I believe.
Suggest getting the BB newsletter. Its free, lists the schedule for these events, and give you an advance peek at the girls.
Enjoy.
I will be visiting BBs for the first time in 3 weeks. Apologies in advance if this is a stupid question, but just wondering. If I bring back multiple girls, what are the mechanics? Do they allow you to have sex with both with the same condom, or do you have to change? Also, is it unheard of to have more than two girls at once?

You could have more than two girls at once, but the problem is that they could be ganging up on you, talking behind your back in Spanish, or making jokes about you, or whatever. Or they may not get along with each other, or two will be friends and the third girl an outsider. It is hard enough to manage the dynamics with two, let alone three. So yes, you could take 5 or 6 and have a party atmosphere, but you could easily end up disappointed.

If you pick the girls for a "Happy Hour" as it is called there, its a good idea to ask the chica manager on-site for recommendations for bisexual girls.
Pick one you like, then leave it to her to recommend the other girl (s). Let her recommend, and select ones that appeal to you.
This way you are assured there is good chemistry between the girls, and a lot better time for you.
The girls can do you and each other as well. Most guys enjoy this.
If you pick solely on who appeals to YOU, you may find tension and less than enthusiastic participation.

[QUOTE=Swagfulg;1856729]Has anyone used the jacuzzi suite? If so who was it. Specifically how large, clean and how is the water pressure?[/QUOTE]Have used the jacuzzi suite, but, in my opinion, not worth it.
The marble bath floor get dangerously slippery, and the jacuzzi is essentially a bathtub with jets. Not really much space.
The bathroom has an open skylight, giving an atrium affect, so the door is best kept closed if you like air conditioning.
Okay, I suppose, if you don't have high expectations.

A 10% tip is already included on all bar or meal bills. Obviously this amount doesn't include your flight. The budget minded can get by on $200/ day with just 2 chicas, average room, modest booze consumption. Side trips to Sosua or FOD, etc not included in calculation. FOD is a dump BTW. Here's a few pics from trips past.
Note: All box pics taken were immediate post blowout, if you will. Naturally. Enjoy.
[QUOTE=Geolopes;1857930] a few clinkers for tips.[/QUOTE]First, clinkers is now my new favorite word. Thank you for that.
Second, $250 a day is a really good estimate. If I stay between $200-$250, I feel like I'm fully enjoying my trip, but not burning my money too extravagantly.
Has BB been sold? Just read it is on the marked. I don't think BB is for me but this trip but not sure jet. As I have not read anything about an owner change I'm not sure if there are any changes in regards to this.
First off, thanks to everyone that has responded to my newbie questions. I'm going to BB next week for the first time and am looking forward to it.
What is the process for selecting the girls? Do they all congregate in the same area? Do you go up to them and say let's go to my room, or are you expected to wine and dine first? I'm going for quantity, so not looking to spend much quality time chatting. Is it possible to schedule appointments through the mamasan?
I've been eying one girl that's been in several of the recent newsletters. She's skinny, young looking girl with long hair and a distinctive beauty mark above her lip. Any intel available on her?
Thanks

Thanks[/QUOTE]You can see I have lots of free time, so here goes.
As you walk into the complex, straight to the back to check-in, they will be watching the "fresh meat" arrive.
Once you're checked in, settled in, showered, maybe napped, you'll go down to the main area, the bar / restaurant.
The girls will be scattered around the bar / restaurant, pool area, lobby.
Basically, just pick one you like, give her a little eye contact, and you're off and running.
Would suggest a little time to get acquainted first; it improves the chances of developing some chemistry / rapport.
Practice your Spanish (or learn some). Treat her as you would your date, not a "worthless ho" and it pays off.
Treat them badly, and you will get the minimum required. And they share information on the clientele.
Treat them like nicely, respectfully, and they appreciate it. If you want a GFE, treat her like "your girl. ".
Buy her a beer or whatever if you choose to do so; but its not required. But hell, offer. No need to pinch pennies, but don't be stupid, either.
If you want anything in particular, its best to discuss it before you go up to your room. Avoid misunderstandings that way.
If there are any that have your attention from the newsletter, I suggest printing out their photos, and ask for them once you arrive.
There should be a "manager" or "mama-san" for the girls, to assist you. Show her the pic and ask. Often, they can call a girl to come in if she doesn't happen to be be there that day.

They're always up for fresh meat. Don't let them con you into happy hour (2 girls at twice the price), unless you want to.
This book does not contain all available chicas. Some chicas have old (1-3 years) photos in the book, sometimes it's hard to recognize chica from the book in real life. Newsletter will give you recent looks.

Since you sound new to this, on the subject of Happy Hours (3-somes) it is a good place to try one, if you haven't yet.
On my first visit to BB, my very first "date" was a Happy Hour.
To maximize your experience, talk to the "mama-san" and ask about which ones are bisexual.
If you find one that appeals to you, ask her to recommend a second girl.
This way, you are sure of two girls that have good chemistry between them, not an awkward one, where one chick is uncomfortable, or doesn't like the other girl.
This way, they will be a lot more enthusiastic, and you get a better time.
Negotiate everything in advance. Of course, you ARE paying for two girls, but I would also say you get a session that's twice as long.
Enjoy.
Was just wondering, do any of the "older generation" of BlackBeard patrons know what ever became of Wendy Evelise, medium toned with a great little figure, who had a younger sister named Jackie?

Mostly you have one girl who leads and the other sits back. I usually start of in the Jacuzzi when I am not sure and go for a test drive. If you don't take a girl after the Jacuzzi you still have to pay her (and you should) but at least you get a good feel for what she would be like in the bed room.

I have sometimes wondered about its value too, when a guy only has one "tool" to work with, but with a little creativity, and the right girls, it can be a fun time. Another variation is one sitting on your face while the other rides Cowgirl. Of course, during straight sex, you can only do one at a time, but with a little initiative, one can busy themselves "tossing your salad" orally or manually while you are at it.
Several years ago, a friend of mine had several Happy Hours with two of the BB stars at that time, Ybel, and Yohanny, and I envy him to this day.
On the money issue, as always, when setting up the date, make one's expectations clearly known before hitting the room. I can't imagine two chicas refusing.

My friend had the jacuzzi. It took forever to fill up and then didn't look like you would want to lay in.
Use the big one downstairs. At least it has chlorine (and maybe some spunk).[/QUOTE]A recent BB newsletter reported that the suite has been completely remodeled, so it might be worth a second look.

[/QUOTE]I also had the pleasure of having Ybel and Yohanny in a threesome many years ago, it was the best two hours of sex I've ever had. I couldn't handle it today, no way as father time is catching up to me.
I went to BB in 2012. Yohanny was a legend, I was not able to book her. From all the reports I have read she was a porn star. No one at BB has come close to her status. I heard she open a salon with proceeds from Western Union novios.

About 2 years ago, I saw her working for a brief time at FOD.
She seriously wanted out of the business before her children became old enough to know her source of income.

I wish her luck.

I had the pleasure off being in the middle of Ybell and Yojanny's make up sex session several years ago. It seems they were having a bit of a spat but made up. Many of you may remember they were dating and were also very competitive. This also applies in bed! Yojanny was to be mine for the night but the more the merrier! Thanks to Lapella it was all good for hours of craziness. On my first trip 11 years ago it was a hot July afternoon and I was the only guy there. There were 5 girls so off to the jacuzzi we went. Some how I needed up with all five of them in my room. Simply an amazing experience.
Yojanny update. She is now back in POP but I am not sure what she is doing. She may possibly have found her way out of the DR with someone. Time will tell.

At breakfast, Yohanny gave me a good review to Ybel, and Ybel wanted to generate some business, inviting me for a session.
I was leaving that morning, and had to finish prepping, so I had to beg off, for lack of time.
Ybel replied, "Eet's okay, I just sock your deek. ".
Lost opportunities.
Hey all,
I am planning to leave to BBs soon and would like some recommendations in the girls. Who are your favorites? Who should I grab for a threesome? Who is the best GFE? Never had a GFE before.
This site is devoted to BB. It rates all the girls. It is full reports about the place.

You CAN find BB information on the IFTC website, though not a lot. Stuff on a variety of subjects, one or two on the girls.
I suggest you go through the BB thread for more information on that.
That thread used to be very busy. Unfortunately, although the hotel seems to remain busy, not a lot of guests are posting these days like they used to.

Hated Sosua so much went back to BB's for the remaining 2 days, forfeiting the prepaid rooms, as was ever so glad that I did (smartest decision of the trip). I'm no longer young and fearless-been there, done enough of that in other shitholes. Will return on Monday, may see you there.
As far as the girls go and wanting GFE, based on my experience and talking with the other patrons it really just depends on how well you click with the girl. And you won't know that until you are with her. I ended up basically playing "spin the bottle" figuring that eventually I'd try all of them anyway so why stress about it. Chemistry plays a big part, and everyone has bad days.
A guy there told me about the IFTC site, but couldn't access it there cause many sites are blocked by DR isp. Found it once got home and registered 3 different times over 2 days using different email addresses. Each time it said it had sent an authentication email but could never find it. Did do a search and found a FB page, saw where some other guys had the same problem. I couldn't get it to work.
Just got IFTC to work, talk with some of the other guests, they can help make suggestions , but there are no guarantees.

A lot depends on your personal taste, chemistry with each chica, etc. Suggest you make some tentative selections using pics from the BB newsletter, and once there, inquiring with the "mama-san". (You didn't mention your Spanish skills. NOT critical, but it helps, improves communication). If one looks good, "audition" her in the jacuzzi, and see how it goes, before hitting the room. Also, mention what you want / expect, so there is no misunderstanding before going to the room.
For what its worth, I have seen good comments on two; Sol, and Angela. Depending on your taste, a couple of dependable performers are Hilda and Olga. Both are in their 30's, but Hilda is built like a brick outhouse, and both are enthusiastic performers.
Enjoy exploring.

[QUOTE=Swagfulg;1888301]Thanks. I'll definitely watch out for that. Did you pay her 10 k?[/QUOTE]I gave her 5 k which I thought was generous, but she said it was supposed to be 10 k. Actually that's all I had and told her I would never have agreed to that price, she insisted that I did. I'm an amateur, she 's a pro, she beat me-that simple. Live and learn.
Could have complained to mamasan, assuming she could understand English, but thought that in the long run the best thing to do was just admit that I got beat and pay her. She did give an outstanding performance, used a. 001 Okamato but she was so forceful when she sat down on it that it broke so the whole session was actually bb, the only complaint is that I was overcharged. She was freaked about bb, but showed her some blood tests and daily hounding emails from the Red Cross which reassured her. Anyway told her I'd give her the rest the next day (she knew I would be leaving as I has set up a 10 am with her friend and probably though I'd skip out on her) after I could get some more rds, but found a currency calculator online and had almost the exact amount in USD. So I went back downstairs, found her-she was happy to take USD, kissed me and thanked me for the propina as it was actually about a dollar more than I owed her.
Considering that chicas know practically every detail about every encounter, thought that owning my mistake was the best choice. Actually turned into a bit of a joke as her friends would rub their ass up on me ask "You want the culo?" just to see the shocked look on my face. Even the girl I'd set up the next am seemed almost giddy that kept the appt considering what happened, going on about how I was a "good man"-who I liked even better looked up while giving a BJ and asked "you want the culo?" as a joke. In retrospect, unless I never planned to return, think not paying her would have been a BIG mistake, certainly not over 5 k. Even then it would have "tainted " my vacation in my mind-not worth it. I did tell a couple of friends that I met there about what happened as a forewarning.
BB reputation is based on no games. If you told the mamasan what happened she would have been all over her ass. Pricing is fixed and tipping is not suggested or encouraged. The one thing you did right was let every one know what a scammer she is. Generally speaking BB has your back. Future reference the mamasan can tell you who will give cullo and how much.

" I would presume she speaks some English, since she deals with the guests.
This appears to have been an honest misunderstanding but if any chica appears to be price gouging, do not let it go. The chicas consider themselves to be very lucky to work in a safe, controlled environment. No street violence to deal with, etc. A chica who is a "problem child" could find herself barred from the hotel.
One of the benefits of the quality control atmosphere at BB is rip-offs should not happen. An honest misunderstanding is one thing, but if you think you're being cheated or taken advantage of, speak to someone. I would even suggest that just bringing up the subject of talking to the management would stop any argument immediately.
"an outstanding performance, used a. 001 Okamato".
Hilarious.
I can imagine a pro golfer, reaching into his bag, and saying: "I think I'll use the. 001 Okamoto on this hole. ".

[QUOTE=Swagfulg;1890812]So she seriously got the 10 k out of you. I'm sure she knew she was BSing and there was no reason you should have paid her 5 x average.[/QUOTE]Stayed last week at BB's, talked with BB's management who said that he had read my reports. This is what I was told- that is was an honest misunderstanding on my part. Angela is a good employee who has worked there for years If the worst thing that happens is being overcharged, "in this game"?
While packing I found some notes and being there I remembered a few details. First she knew it was my first trip to DR and was going to Sosua the next day, probably though she's never see me again. 2nd I paid her 4000, (5000 was an error). It wasn't even on my mind-she was giving bbj and carrying on about how much she wanted it in her culo, I said "OK", then she said what I understood to be 2 thousand and held up 2 fingers. As I explained to BB's management I knew that it was around $50 because that's what I paid extra in CR for the culo and while on the steep side it was OK. (A patron who has been going there for 10 years told me the next day that the going rate for the culo was 1800 plus the normal rate-) When I gave her the 4000, she began shaking her head sideways and sad "No, baby ten tousand".
That's the first time she uttered the word "TEN". She's bilingual and knew exactly what she was doing, it was not a misunderstanding I just wonder how many guys she did it to who were too embarrassed to admit it. Somebody's paying for that high -end Mitsubishi SUV she drives.
Regardless of whether it was a misunderstanding or not, that does not excuse the fact that it was also PRICE GOUGING. For those guy's who said the" mamasan would be all over her", "the rate is set", "BB's has you back", this is one case where all of you are wrong- BB's stood behind their employee 100%. I was offered no remedy of any kind, and from what I gathered after talking with 3 mamasans- they are only there for scheduling. I tried to get some help / suggestions from mamasan and was told" all the girl are good"-big help.
Also her demeanor said it all, she stayed at a distance for the most part. Was eating with a friend and she came up and started rubbing on him (he wasn't interested). I told her that I remembered her from last time-you could feel the tension in the air-she didn't stick around. In short, she suckered me-I got stung and admit it. But she got exposed on this forum. I won't do business with her and suggest that others boycott her as well. There are too many others who will happily work for a reasonable fee. That is all I have to say about Angela and BB's regarding this issue.
Repeated with girls I liked last trip 3, Valeria who I saw twice this time scored consistent "A"'s. The other two whose names both start with an "A" both dropped a full letter grade and the one I liked best had somehow transformed from sweet girl to hustler-screwed up the apt time, the when rescheduled knocked on my door 15 min early (no time to properly prepare the room) headed straight for the fridge and open a mango Gatorade that she took one sip of. Then as I got the music going she began hounding me to give her the little pop-up speaker system. Afterward she began pressuring me about" what time tomorrow". She couldn't take a hint so finally said "No, it's not fair, the other girls deserve a chance, just like I gave you"-not that she understood what I was saying. This girl reeked of "Contempt".
They was a group of guys there I affectionately refer to as "guidos". I was telling them that in my experience usually a girl is good for 2-3 repeat sessions before her performance goes from great to mediocre, first time I had girls where the second session was worse than the first-they had the same experiences. One guy said with some girls if you repeat they automatically think that you are in love or something, start cutting corners (and they think that we don't notice), asking for stuff, etc. We all agreed that is is very disrespectful when they do this (spending our money without any regard for the efforts that WE had to provide in order to earn it.). We all agreed that the first time a chica shows disrespect-she gets cut.
The good news is that because of all this, I tried 4 new girls, got 2 to replace the 2 whose names begin with an "A"-who got cut. I tried a different approach-I told the girls straight up that I was looking for a nice girl-a good person, not a hustler, that I had run into a couple there, and in other locales and had no use for them. And that's what I got-so much better than the ones they replaced. Funny how the wheels of Karma turn sometimes.
P.S. Rest assured that everyone at BB's-management and chicas all read this thread.
BB reputation used to be very good. Thanks for the update. Your honesty and details are commendable. The only thing BB had was its rep.
I've known Angie (google Syndi Capri and she's her twin) for years and I would trust her around anything of mines. I was drunk one time and couldn't finish so I gave up and paid her, well she came back the next day and completed the job with no additional charge. If I was on the jury I would side with management.

It wasn't even on my mind-she was giving bbj and carrying on about how much she wanted it in her culo, I said "OK", then she said what I understood to be 2 thousand and held up 2 fingers. As I explained to BB's management I knew that it was around $50 because that's what I paid extra in CR for the culo and while on the steep side it was OK. (A patron who has been going there for 10 years told me the next day that the going rate for the culo was 1800 plus the normal rate-) When I gave her the 4000, she began shaking her head sideways and sad "NO, baby TEN tousand".
That's the first time she uttered the word "TEN". She's bilingual and knew exactly what she was doing, it was not a misunderstanding I just wonder how many guys she did it to who were too embarrassed to admit it. Somebody's paying for that high -end Mitsubishi SUV she drives.
Regardless of whether it was a misunderstanding or not, that does not excuse the fact that it was also PRICE GOUGING. For those guy's who said the" mamasan would be all over her", "the rate is set", "BB's has you back", this is one case where all of you are wrong- BB's stood behind their employee 100%. I was offered no remedy of any kind, and from what I gathered after talking with 3 mamasans- they are only there for scheduling. I tried to get some help / suggestions from mamasan and was told" al the girl are good"-big help.
Also her demeanor said it all, she stayed at a distance for the most part. Was eating with a friend and she came up and started rubbing on him (he wasn't interested). I told her that I remembered her from last time-you could feel the tension in the air-she didn't stick around. In short, she suckered me-I got stung and admit it. But she got exposed on this forum. I won't do business with her and suggest that others boycott her as well. There are too many others who will happily work for a reasonable fee. That is all I have to say about Angela and BB's regarding this issue.
Repeated with girls I liked last trip 3, Valeria who I saw twice this time scored consistent "A"'s. The other two whose names both start with an "A" both dropped a full letter grade and the one I liked best had somehow transformed from sweet girl to hustler-screwed up the apt time, the when rescheduled knocked on my door 15 min early (no time to properly prepare the room) headed straight for the fridge and open a mango Gatorade that she took one sip of. Then as I got the music going she began hounding me to give her the little pop-up speaker system. Afterward she began pressuring me about" what time tomorrow". She couldn't take a hint so fanally said "NO, it's not fair, the other girls deserve a chance, just like I gave you"-not that she understood what I was saying. This girl reeked of "Contempt".
They was a group of guys there I affectionately refer to as "guidos". I was telling them that in my experience usually a girl is good for 2-3 repeat sessions before her performance goes from great to mediocre, first time I had girls where the second session was worse than the first-they had the same experiences. One guy said with some girls if you repeat they automatically think that you are in love or something, start cutting corners (and they think that we don't notice), asking for stuff, etc. We all agreed that is is very disrespectful when they do this (spending our money without any regard for the efforts that WE had to provide in order to earn it.). We all agreed that the first time a chica shows disrespect-she gets cut.
The good news is that because of all this, I tried 4 new girls, got 2 to replace the 2 whose names begin with an "A"-who got cut. I tried a DIFFERENT approach-I told the girls straight up that I was looking for a nice girl-a good person, not a hustler, that I had run into a couple there, and in other locales and had no use for them. And that's what I got-so much better than the ones they replaced. Funny how the wheels of Karma turn sometimes.
P.S. Rest assured that everyone at BB's-management AND chicas all read this thread.[/QUOTE]That is surprising. Management is who I would expect to handle this. Not sure what their position was.
Not clear if this was Nico, who they hired from FOD a year ago; or Tim, who is more experienced and honcho in El Capitan's absence. Not sure what El Capitan's level of interest is, as they have the hotel on the market, but it has been high in the past. Suggest checking the Blackbeard's Newsletter. His address is posted there for comments. Email him and see what results.

I was shocked because up until that point was a big fan of Angela, and would repeat at 4000. Not surprised at all that they sided with their employee. I have been in the same situation, different circumstances many times when a valuable employee steps out of line. I know that the compliant is valid, but must side with the employee simply because "I had to to live there" the next week, month, etc. And yes, sometimes I was the employee and my bosses faced the same situation.
My only real complaint is that I was basically charged 8000 extra for the culo when the going rate is 1800, for which there is no defense.

I've been doing my homework on this and I need one question answered for now; Does black beards menu have a specific price for anal? I don't remember it did.
There is no set price for anal. However, chicas offered culo many times in the range between 1,000 and 2,000 pesos add on. Only Angela wanted some crazy amount, much more than 10 k, so I just laughed and declined.

I agree though, had he stood his ground, been more forceful (rather than kiss and be nice) taken the argument to management, the outcome would've been different. Once he paid her, the horse is out of the barn and understandably BB couldn't do much.
BTW, I just got back from my usual strip club in the hood. Saw a girl that I haven't seen in a while, and struck a deal to take her to the VIP room for a quick bang for I paid her last time, 3675 pesos. I gave her 920 pesos for the lap dances (3 songs) she's given me up to that point, she was supposed to bring back a condom, 230 pesos for change, and then we would head for the VIP room. Well she disappeared after that. So she robbed me of my 230 pesos (and she missed out on making 3675 pesos). I should've taken that up with management too, but I just left. I think if I go back tomorrow and tell them what transpired, they wouldn't do anything either.
Man was charged 5 times more then he agreed to pay. Every body knows that BB skanks are not worth 10000 pesos. My man decided to give in but he knew he had been screwed. I would have loved to have seen what would have happened if he had stood his ground. Angela is persona non grata with me as is BB.

As stated and confirmed here she puts a high premium on such and explains this. The girls price is also determined on if you are a newbie, her comfort zone with you, and the value she wants to place on it. Its a big difference between 2 k and 10 k so most guys would have complained or cussed her out and refused to pay, but they made happy and everything was good. See, if he heard 2 k and she said 4 k most guys would pay to keep the peace. If he heard 2 k and she said 6 k most guys would probably balk. But 2 k and 10 k is a big difference and he paid up and gave her a tip, that makes me believe her price was legit. She speaks English so what wasn't understood? He sucked it up and payed and I respect him for that but it should have ended there.
Once he found out the unofficial mongers rate he was pissed. Sure maybe other girls add a 2 k premium or maybe the guy is a repeat customer and gets a great deal but these things have to be figured in on a side deal. If a girl likes me and gives me free pussy are all the other guys entitled to free pussy? You say BB girls aren't worth 10 k but I know several guys who have married BB girls so they thought they were worth more.

He didn't take up the problem with management about the deal. He paid and sealed the deal with a tip and a kiss. Both parties were happy and the deal was concluded so BB was excused. Days later you want management to referee and tell a girl their are parameters on a side deal and set value on her ass, which BB will not do. BB is not complicit or responsible here.

In my experience dealing w / MP's / Casas the mamasan or owner almost always sides with the girl. Had a Nica novia who's brother was a high ranking police officer, pity the fool who tried to stiff her or her friends. I've heard stories where guys got drug form their hotel room and thrown in jail, and sometimes the girl made the whole story up- but she has connections, relatives, etc.
Once she pulled her stunt I realized that she wouldn't have done it without having confidence that BB's would back her up in the event I went to the mamasan, so even if I had I really don't think it would have made any difference. IOW I realized at that moment that the real policy is "You are obliged to pay whatever price she says that you agreed to" without regard to what hook or crook means she arrived at that price.
The reason I didn't go to BB's management then is because I though it would be a waste of time. The reason I went and paid her the remaining 6000 and played "nice"is because I could not risk getting thrown in jail. I knew I had been screwed, realized that I'm alone in the wrong neighborhood, totally outnumbered with BB's management on her side. I am a veteran, old and have two permanent disabilities, and at that point began to fear for my own safety.
Had it been an indy at Sosua I would have given her the 4000 and told her to "get lost". But I thought that the reason I was paying Gringo prices there, is so I wouldn't have to deal with this BS, that BB"s had their customer's backs. Instead it turns out that their setup where I am paying premium prices, actually worked against me instead of for me. I was going for 5 days every month, and thinking about leasing a condo for the winter. But if there's no advantage to BB's chicas vs some indys off the street, what's the point?
Does anyone have a good suggestion for a nice chica friendly hotel in Cabarete, think I'll go there in July?.

I am not sure what you would have expected from Tim. Your word against her word on the unregulated price, not the fixed price set by BB. You have learned an expensive lesson, never discuss a price when her mouth occupied with your dick:). I probably would not pay that amount. Your risk of going to jail is probably very close to zero. You have been safe, the only problem you might have had if Angela badmouthing you to other chicas, but I do not think that she would have done it. As for Angela, I would say boycott her ass, not the rest of her body, as she is very good performer:). Thanks for sharing, your post will make it harder for chicas to ask for ridiculous prices.

As for the arguments that "the horse is out of the barn" or "making a ruckus after the deal not being fair"- those arguments are absolutely absurd-since when is there no "statue of limitations" for crimes? This notion that I had to go to BB's management right then, otherwise I loose all rights is pure BS. OK, but prices in CR are generally higher, I know what's reasonable and what isn't. This whole chain of events began when Angela pulled the switcheroo. At that moment I had that sick feeling in my gut, the one where you know you are trapped and have only one option, to pay-just like highway robbery. Also, she admitted that she was paid 10,000-no he said / she said situation.
Had BB's wanted to salvage their reputation pertaining to this issue it would have been very easy. Tell her that when that patron walks in you will pay him 6000 with a smile an and apology for the misunderstanding. That would allow me to post about how I was made whole and maybe it was just a big misunderstanding after all! Everyone saves face, but I realize that is simply not the Latin or Conquistador business model. (ie in every transaction there is only one outcome-one person is the winner and the other the loser, whereas in the European business model we think in terms of mutual satisfaction).
Other posters her have established the fact that Angela has a history of at least attempting to charge 10,000, I'm just the only one who admitted it. I find it disturbing that BB's allows an employee who repeatedly scams or attempts to scam their customers, to remain employed there. If me telling the truth hurts Angela or BB's- they should have thought about the possible consequences before hand.
People think that they can get away with stuff cause you're on their turf and they have you outnumbered-they have all the leverage. But the webb is one hell of an equalizer, see it I own the rights to this story and can tell it as many times on as many forums as I choose. Rhetorical question, if it happened to you at what point would you be content to STFU?
Now, lets keep this thing in perspective. Didn't come here to argue and I'm not hating on anyone. This is about ONE performer. There have been many misconceptions, or myths regarding set rates, BB's role, etc. Which have been de-bunked, so that now everyone has a clearer understanding- this is constructive. For the record I like BB's and went there based on their history of happy customers. I would not write them off completely, based on one girl, but I would certainly decline ANY extras, especially if the girl is the one who brings it up. Also I would boycott all performers who have a history of bad behavior.
I especially like the restaurant staff. I keep a menu in my room, when I go to the restaurant I walk up to the waitress and tell her what I want and then go sit down, I don't make her come over to me-why because my parents taught met to be considerate, especially of others who have less. About 2/3 of my trips good experiences have nothing to do with chicas- the guys I meet or other stuff outside the hotel. Other than this one bad experience, I had a great time there-swam in the pool, ate lots of salads, walked the beach, tried other resturants, wanted to take the Paradise Island snorkeling trip but a chica messed up my schedule-should have just cancelled and went anyway. There are still a few chicas I wouldn't mind seeing again-hope that puts things is perspective.

This notion that I had to go to BB's management right then, otherwise I loose all rights is pure BS. OK, but prices in CR are generally higher, I know what's reasonable and what isn't.

At that moment I had that sick feeling in my gut, the one where you know you are trapped and have only one option, to pay-just like highway robbery. Also, she admitted that she was paid 10,000-no he said / she said situation.
Had BB's wanted to salvage their reputation pertaining to this issue it would have been very easy. Tell her that when that patron walks in you will pay him 6000 with a smile an and apology for the misunderstanding. That would allow me to post about how I was made whole and maybe it was just a big misunderstanding after all! Everyone saves face, but I realize that is simply not the Latin or Conquistador business model. (ie in every transaction there is only one outcome-one person is the winner and the other the loser, whereas in the European business model we think in terms of mutual satisfaction).
Other posters her have established the fact that Angela has a history of at least attempting to charge 10,000, I'm just the only one who admitted it. I find it disturbing that BB's allows an employee who repeatedly scams or attempts to scam their customers, to remain employed there. If me telling the truth hurts Angela or BB's- they should have thought about the possible consequences before hand.
People think that they can get away with stuff cause you're on their turf and they have you outnumbered-they have all the leverage.

Rhetorical question, if it happened to you at what point would you be content to STFU?
Now, lets keep this thing in perspective. Didn't come here to argue and I'm not hating on anyone. This is about ONE performer. There have been many misconceptions, or myths regarding set rates, BB's role, etc. Which have been de-bunked, so that now everyone has a clearer understanding- this is constructive.

I would not write them off completely, based on one girl, but I would certainly decline ANY extras, especially if the girl is the one who brings it up.

I especially like the restaurant staff. I keep a menu in my room, when I go to the restaurant I walk up to the waitress and tell her what I want and then go sit down, I don't make her come over to me-why because my parents taught met to be considerate, especially of others who have less.

References to your "safety concerns" were in context to being arrested. The probability of BB or the chica calling in the cops was / is nonexistent. On the cancer issue, that is a separate matter. I have recently dealt with that battle, so I am not unsympathetic, but it is not part of the discussion. I have also served my 20 in uniform.
In a friendly, respectful manner, if I had been in that position, I would have caved only after a very long discussion with a gringo manager, not a mama san. They are facilitators, with no real authority as it applies to customer relations. Again, respectfully, I suggest that if you had devoted as much effort at the time, instead of well after the fact, it might have served you better. I suggest that if you had paid her the 2000 and left it at that, what would she have done? Called the cops? No. Complained to management? Good chance, but I would prefer rational discussion with another gringo, than the chica. She might have been pissed off, but no cops would have been involved. "Better pissed off, than pissed on. " I have witnessed incidents when it was the customer that cheated the chica, and there were heated discussions, but no cops.
Agreed, this deals with ONE performer, but note how comments quickly painted the entire place with the same brush.
Most comments were critical of BB writ large, "I'm not going there now" etc, not just of Angela.
Such incidents there are very rare. One would have to search the BB thread very hard to find another, so overall, knocking the entire establishment for one reported misunderstanding with one chica and a mamasan seems unreasonable.
Take care,
Y69.
[QUOTE=Henley100;1894542]By calling me a white knight, I think you're trying to imply that I'm a chump. I'm not friends with Angela beyond visits at Blackbeards. The only reason I spoke up for her is that she has been a great provider for years at BBs. I would hate to lose access to her while I'm there because someone had their pride hurt.
That's not me being a chump.

Yes, I'm what you'd call a nice guy, or chump and sometimes I get tricked and lose some money.

My impression is this was a misunderstanding, nothing more. The chica might have quoted a price, but was misunderstood or misheard. It seems she quotes the absurd price regularly, but is usually declined. As there is no set price for anal, she can ask whatever absurd price she wants, and customers are free to decline. I think most guys, presented with her unreasonable demand, would have taken it up with a gringo manager, but I speculate that you felt under unfair pressure to pay her, as you might have been concerned about being delayed in a Dominican jail, and missing a monthly cancer treatment. As a result, you may feel particularly victimized.
In the end (no pun intended) the incident was unfortunate, but a rare occurrence. In my mind, the experience at BB, overall, is good, and those that wish to can avoid Angela. Moreover, they can make it clear to her exactly WHY they want nothing to do with her, and she will learn that her type of game will cost her money in the long run.

Early in life, when other people told me that I couldn't do this or that, I realized that what they were really telling me was that since they couldn't accomplish whatever I was contemplating, they hoped that I wouldn't be successful since that would take away their excuse for failure. So I learned to never place any weigh in the opinion of a loser, misfit, or person of low character. So, for these losers who try and twist the facts around and attack me for telling the truth-you guys are really pathetic.
Why would I respond to some underachiever (s) who only demonstrates the ability to distort the facts or reject them outright, someone who is clearly of low character and who's opinion is absolutely worthless to me, why indeed?
You guys can keep beating this whorse (pun intended) all you want. From what I've seen of mongers about 80% are morbidly obese and smoke cigarettes-a lifetime of poor choices and a lack of self discipline. I have other places to visit, and a workout that will not be missed. Color me gone.
Why complain to a board of misfits, low character, underachieving guys who lack discipline? Maybe you thought we would believe anything. Well we fooled you and saw through who you were and what you were trying to accomplish. Your case has fallen apart and now you can only resort to attacks to make yourself feel justified.
Not only did you unfairly try to tarnish a well known establishment that has served our community for more than 20 years but you also tried to ruin a girl who gave you great service at a price you agreed to. You should have tucked your tail after you didn't initially complain to management and chalked it up to a lesson learned. But no! You decided to come to the "Misfit" board and try to fool 99 percent of the guys who have no other life. Those 99 percent of no life misfits saw through your lies except for 1 percent that had never met you but believed you over an establishment that has served them for years. Now you are saying you had a winning hand after throwing In a missed flush draw.
Good luck to you Sir hopefully you learned to not underestimate this board of misfits and losers.

Brothers,
Somehow I think we have all lost the way. How did we move from some guy having a bad experience, to water being wet, to the actions of a young lawyer, to mongers who are morbidly obese (obviously this is the reason we all go to the Dominican Republic; not to check out the smoking chica bodies, but to check out each other's fat, out of shape, cigarette smoking bodies! Boy, have I been deceived. I've been doing it the other way around.).
As for Angela this is the best promotion she has ever received. She is now just as famous as Monica Lewinsky, Jessica Hahn, and P*e Wee Herman's left hand as he was chocking his own chicken (long live the chicken!).
As usual Frannie has added his great words of wisdom. In honor of you, Frannie, I have posted the link to Judge Judy's website.
[URL]http://www.judgejudy.com/submit_your_case[/URL]
Assuming that Angela is the one with the American flag bathing suit this is her picture.
Brothers, can we make this simple. Whether the story is true or not (I believe some of it is true) the guy overpaid so the next time all he has to do is not overpay. Hey, I do it all the time. When I realize that I overpay (with a chica, taxi service, motoconcho, buying food, etc.) I chalk it up to experience and make sure that it does not happen again. It happens to all of us. If it has never happened to you you have never been to the Dominican Republic. This is par for the course in this hobby. I can understand the gentleman being upset but, hey, no one likes to be cheated.
Never has a 'culo' caused so much anguish to so many men. Maybe we should write a book on it and call it "Angela's Asses. " (Frank Mccourt would be proud).

Everytime I have been in court or on a jury I thought both sides of the story were presented to the trier of fact. Are the triers of fact ignorant and lack character because they ask questions? She has not presented her side of the story and based upon my interactions with her I concluded a misunderstanding might have occurred. Now with your rants, I tend to believe she told you 10 k and you accepted. Case solved for me. Good day Sir.
Sorry, had to add one more to law chat. Just knowing someone on either side of the case does not result in automatic disqualification from serving on a jury. Please leave the practice of law to the professionals. Need to run out for ice cream and a smoke.
Hello,
Thank you in advance for reading and posting a response to my inquiry. I will be at Blackbeard's later on this month and I have always wanted to experience a threesome with two beautiful ladies who are very into each other, and obviously willing to share the experience with a horny f#er like myself. I understand that I can wait until I just get there and speak with the Mamasan, but I would much rather have some of the gentlemen from this forum who are true veterans of a similar experience at Blackbeard's weigh-in with their thoughts.
So, what I am looking for is a recommendation of two or more ladies that would more than likely deliver a quality threesome experience where the ladies are not just "pretending" to be into each other to earn the money. I have experienced Hilda and Angela one-on-one and they are fun, just to provide an idea of the type of lady that I like. In advance, I know that YMMV and personal chemistry can make a difference, but it would be nice to know that there are some truly bisexual ladies who enjoy this type of a party. Any input is greatly appreciated.
[QUOTE=MrAdventure;1888243]I had about equal luck % wise with girls that were recommended and the one I liked best nobody paid any attention to. They're women-it's complicated. Being accustomed to MP's and not speaking espanol, I'm accustomed to "point and shoot", but that's not the best approach. Yes, Angela is very good but quite the mercenary. Somehow in the heat of passion she offered the culo and my ears heard 2000 rds, but when it came time to pay she said it was 10,000. Next time I go for extras I am are going to write it down and have her sign it first. Not the first time a chica has used the language card, so beware.[/QUOTE]Mr. Adventure,
You told a story as a man in the arena. And you received a bunch of responses from "the usual critics". We know they do not count. Thank you for relating your story. And keep in mind what I said.
I am arriving this Monday at Blackbeards with a friend, Although I have read through the forum I feel its hard to sift through allot of drama over a girl overcharging and other such issues to really gather what I am looking for. I wondered if any veteran would give me a break down of the basics. Example. Step 1 speak to so and so, step 2 go to this area and the girls there are all available, step 3 etc etc. Are there ads with pictures by chance?
Does anyone know if there are Uber drivers in Puerto Plata? I know I seen a couple in Santiago. I was hoping to get an Uber from Santiago If The bus looks to sketchy.
Also, Do the girls generally mind if I ask to take a photo? I'd like to post my experience here after the week and would like to post pics. Or is that a no no.
Try the one that has been referred to as, "Betty Boop. " She's a little crazy but in a good way. I did a 3 some with her and "Beyonce" once. Betty loves to eat box, LOVES it! I've learned from past trips that the "happy hour" option during the days offers a slight discount for 2 chicas. The best approach is to find the one you like and ask her who she's comfortable working with and go from there. Not all the girls munch box so you'll have to feel it out a little. Yes, the Mamasan should be able to guide you. Don't rush into it or you might get played a bit finding out too late that the chicas don't really get along or aren't really bi. Betty Boop would also be a good source of info I bet. Her pic was in BB's last newsletter. Hope this helps. Good luck.
[QUOTE=OneOfTheCrew;1905624]Hello,
Thank you in advance for reading and posting a response to my inquiry. I will be at Blackbeard's later on this month and I have always wanted to experience a threesome with two beautiful ladies who are very into each other, and obviously willing to share the experience with a horny f#er like myself. I understand that I can wait until I just get there and speak with the Mamasan, but I would much rather have some of the gentlemen from this forum who are true veterans of a similar experience at Blackbeard's weigh-in with their thoughts.
So, what I am looking for is a recommendation of two or more ladies that would more than likely deliver a quality threesome experience where the ladies are not just "pretending" to be into each other to earn the money. I have experienced Hilda and Angela one-on-one and they are fun, just to provide an idea of the type of lady that I like. In advance, I know that YMMV and personal chemistry can make a difference, but it would be nice to know that there are some truly bisexual ladies who enjoy this type of a party. Any input is greatly appreciated.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=IAmGine;1906007]I am arriving this Monday at Blackbeards with a friend, Although I have read through the forum I feel its hard to sift through allot of drama over a girl overcharging and other such issues to really gather what I am looking for. I wondered if any veteran would give me a break down of the basics. Example. Step 1 speak to so and so, step 2 go to this area and the girls there are all available, step 3 etc etc. Are there ads with pictures by chance?
Does anyone know if there are Uber drivers in Puerto Plata? I know I seen a couple in Santiago. I was hoping to get an Uber from Santiago If The bus looks to sketchy.
Also, Do the girls generally mind if I ask to take a photo? I'd like to post my experience here after the week and would like to post pics. Or is that a no no.[/QUOTE]All the girls at BB are available except for the help. The girls sit all over the place, mainly by the main bar though. Most of them will let you take pics. Some nude, just ask. Up in the disco or poolside, you can take all the pics you want, just not video. At the front desk, you can ask for a book that has names and pics of most of the working chicas, If you see one in there you like, you can ask one of the mamasans to try to call them in. In general prices at BB are fixed. Just look in the white binder in each room for the latest prices and rules.
I'm considering staying at BB because of the crackdown in Sosua. A couple of quick questions if no one minds:
1) My reading is that short term is for 2 hours. Is that just one pop unless negotiated otherwise? Are they amenable to MSOG in those 2 hours if you ask?
2) Is the "chica book" mentioned below actually functional, in the sense that you can actually get the girls who aren't working that day? That would certainly ease my concern that I'd only want to spend time with a few of the 30 women (I presume there's not that much turnover over one week?

2) If you really want women who are on the rag, then anything is possible, but in many cases on days when the girls are not working they are out of town. Always worth asking, though. Certainly if you are having a good time with a girl, she might postpone that trip home to spend more time with you, if you make it worth her while.
Are the girls checked, a friend told me that aids is rampant in DR. Anyone have any comments? Should I be concerned?

In the past, I have been sitting with the mamasan at the time when a chica came over to turn over her exam results. I have also driven a chica to her doctor's appointment for the exam.
Someone would have to confirm this last part for me, but I am also under the impression that they have had health workers come over to give the chicas classes in safe sex practices. Still, you never know who a chica was with yesterday, so the customers need to practice safe sex as well. Bareback is never a good idea.
No system is perfect, but another reason I have preferred BB to trolling the streets, where there is zero quality control.

Sitting out by pool, sitting around in chairs under umbrellas, at bar, etc. They will be approaching you as soon as you are checked in. Last two times we visited there they had a girl walk us to our room on check in. You will be surprised at just how easy this is. Its kind of like going to Del Ray in Costa Rica. It is just that easy. No idea about Uber. We took cabs to Sosua and just walked to the local little store which is a block away. Also for excursions they will pick you up at gate. In terms of taking the girls pics we never had one say no (but then again I was with wife who is Spanish and they always hit it off with her big time). I would not post a pic of the girls without permission, but that is just me. Hope this helps.

Depending on time of day you arrive, you can take a cab to Caribe Tours bus station, get a bus to POP for just a couple of bucks, then take cab to Costambar / BB. Only drawback is that this would be slightly more time consuming. The buses are comfortable and air conditioned. Cab from POP to BB would probably run about 700 pesos, a little under 20 dollars US. Cab from airport to Caribe Tours about the same.
If you are traveling with a friend, you could split a cab. Depending on time of arrival, you might negotiate a ride from STI to Costambar for about 70 dollars, according to some on this board.
If you arrive at night, less leverage, and you would probably pay about 120 dollars. You can contact BB and ask for a cab. I have seen on their website, they will do this now.
For photos, you can check the BB thread for pics, or request their newsletter for monthly pics, including girls.
You will have no problem pairing up with girls. Every girl on premises, apart from bar, staff, is there for sexual service. There are day and night shifts of girls. Reportedly there is a book available (not totally inclusive) of the girls working there. Just make eye contact, and take it from there. Don't be a door mat, but be polite and respectful. For a GFE, treat her like your GF.
If you have a special request, find the girl acting as "manager" for assistance. She can even call in a girl, or set up a date later with a girl from the book that you do not see there.
Always ask to take photos first. No problem with dressed or swimsuits, but girls may object to nudes, or sex pics. Avoid pics, videos of the girls that include customers. Nobody wants legal problems with spouse or job due to your posting of their faces.
HIV is not a serious problem, particularly if you practice safe sex. More importantly, would advise bringing mosquito repellent for both people. The Caribbean has a problem with the Zika virus. May not be an issue if you are single, but potential transmission to a sex partner when you return, requiring use of condoms on arrival. Check online for details on that.
As a newbie, reach an understanding with the girl as to your expectations / requirements. All should be mutually understood before going up to the room. Problems are rare, but this is how to avoid them. If you have a problem, speak to one of the gringo managers.
Title says it all does Blackbeards charge a fee to change dollars to pesos, and is the rate the same as google?
[QUOTE=IAmGine;1909793]Title says it all does Blackbeards charge a fee to change dollars to pesos, and is the rate the same as google?[/QUOTE]You have already posted this in the Sosua section and it has been answered there.
Just in case you are confused, Blackbeards is a long way (about 25 miles?) from Sosua. The nearest city is Puerto Plata (3 miles).
Do not change dollars at Blackbeards unless a small amount in an emergency. They give a poor rate.
[QUOTE=IAmGine;1909793]Title says it all does Blackbeards charge a fee to change dollars to pesos, and is the rate the same as google?[/QUOTE]Well, I have time to kill.
Noting Mr Charles Pooter's comments, not sure what answer you got on the Sosua thread, but upon passing through a gateway into the Costambar neighborhood, you will see a grocery store on the right, called Jenny's. That is the best place to change dollars. Ask the cab to stop for a few minutes while you go inside to change money (unless you already have pesos to pay him). Suggest only changing a few hundred.
Upon arrival at BB, pay for your room with the pesos. If you pay in dollars, you pay their exchange rate. Paying in pesos will save you money. Paying with a credit card will incur an absurd extra charge.
When you need to change more, Jenny's is a 5 minute stroll from BB. You can also buy bottles of water, toiletry items, etc.
Jenny's has the best rate you will find within a convenient distance. In my opinion, a cab ride to a bank will cost more than any savings.
Quick question. Black Beards VS Campo. Dollar for dollar; girl for girl. Which wins?
All bills are paid at decent rate, you will lose about 0. 1-0. 5% comparing to Yenny supermarket. If you exchange money at BB you lose 2-3 pesos per dollar.

Don't think theres anything like it in the world.
From 10 pages of ISG forums looks like Caribbean version of German FKK.

FKK, you pay a much bigger cover, which gives you free access to all the services they offer, except the chicas. Campo, is all a la carte. Campo is all outdoors, except for the chicas rooms, and the bar. Campo can have anywhere from 100 to 200 chicas at a time. They have a web site, with pictures, that may give you a better idea of what it is.
[QUOTE=AthTrainer;1911120]FKK, you pay a much bigger cover, which gives you free access to all the services they offer, except the chicas. [/QUOTE]FKK is not a poor comparison. I have paid around 50 USD (or perhaps Euro) as cover charge and it really does not have that much free stuff. Some food (including fruits) that is nothing to write home about, an air conditioned premises, excellent sauna and a kino (cinema) room. That is it essentially. I can't recall if the first drink was included but if you are a serious drinker, you may have to shell out. Yes, in size, they are smaller. I have never seen more than 20/25 women. No matter what, it is an interesting experience, (albeit these days, only with East European women) plus the safety of it all smack in the middle of a sophisticated Germany.
I do have to say that this Campo Alegre sounds inviting though, especially the idea of living there. What are the cover charges and hotel per night fees are like?
All the ladies in red, 30 chicas to 7 guys.
First time here and I am sold. Most the guys I've talk to over the last few days tell me they don't really like field of dreams. This was my first trip of this sort but I am already planning for October Halloween trip.

Campo is something to experience, if you like the Caribbean, and like Dominican and Colombian girls.
Entery is only like $5. Rooms are nothing special. Its a old army barrack. I don't think many guys stay there. Maybe for a night. Not sure, though. Definitely a inexpensive room option. Hotels are a little high in Curacao. Nice beaches, good diving. More chicas in one location, than probably any venue in the world.
One thing I like is if you pick a girl, and she's a dud, cut your loss, and try another one. No pressure to "get your moneys worth".
Hi T, I have been to Happy Camp on Curacao many times during my one trip there and thoroughly enjoyed it. I stayed at a private home not far from Campo (rented a room and he threw in a car) but I couldn't bring girls back to his place (he's married and the wife would not approve). No matter because I would go to Campo every day at least once a day for the seven days I was there. I think it was the equivalent of $27/ pop when I was there five years ago but it is probably higher now. See my post in Curacao if it is still there. I recommend it. The food wasn't bad either. Lots of pretty girls and some with big boobs.

PM me if interested.
[QUOTE=Dasisextra;1918372]Anyone planning visits to BB in September? I plan on arriving on September 4th for 10 nights. Spending time at a AI resort first.[/QUOTE]A little over lap on the dates. Myself and Brother that is.
In the latest newsletter, John talks of things getting tough on the staff. Does anybody know if something specific happened? I know Nico was in an accident recently and is currently recovering.
Essential data:
Trip dates: 11-16 August (5 nights at hotel).
Exchange rate: Yenny's Market in Costambar paid 45.80 pesos to the USD and that's pretty much well known as the best rate in the area. Convenient ATM right outside the store might do a little better but did not try.
Weather: No detectable rain in 5 days. Temps in the mid 80's modest humidity, light sea breezes, much cooler than the crushing heat wave that hit the northeast USA During our stay.
Finances:
1000 pesos RD=$21.83 USD.
100 peso RD=2.18 USD.
1 peso RD=02 cents USD.
ST (1-2 hours) costs 1,800 pesos RD=$39.30 USD.
LT Did not try.
Arrived with about $1,540 cash USD and 7,000 leftover pesos DR and departed with over $400 USD unspent with no need to use the ATM next to Yenny's or exchange at BB's front desk at their lower house courtesy rate of 43.80. Bottom line: For 5 nights including room, bitches, booze, meals (one meal out at Sola Mia's rest. nearby), taxis, tips, etc I only spent about $1,200. However, my kill count was a bit down this trip, usually 2 nuts a day not including the twice daily no leche jacuzzi BBBJs. Got a break on my flight cost with 70,000 air miles burned, just paid a little over $100.00 for the usual taxes and fees. Right?
There were two (2) of us, HIGHLY experienced mongers, traveling together to Puerto Plata (POP) "The Silver Port" or "Gateway to Riches" depending on your interpretation for my 11th trip and my wing's 16th. (See my previous trip reports and posts with pics for this section going back over the last 5 years.) Between the both of us we easily have over 1,000 kills, EASILY. Don't hate! BTW, BJ's count in our tally. The wing goes to BKK twice a year for weeks at a time. Together we have over 25 trips collectively, and usually together, to BlackBeards. Throw in our odd trips to SJO, PTY or MDE, etc and it all adds up. Who's counting anyway. Right?
Arrived about an hour late to POP, paid the usual $10 USD tourist visa, two more security layers later and BB's designated driver was right there. Nice guy, VERY reliable, not your typical retard, and I spoke with him in his native language about any changes in the area since my last trip 2 years ago on the 35 minute ride in. Our two year hiatus to BB's was caused by our group traveling together to SJO and two trips to MDE for a change of pace. Nothing personal, we just wanted to sample different venues for comparison to BB's. We all loved Costa Rica (generally more expensive than the DR) and Colombia (generally a bit less so.) Pussy costs more in SJO as a rule but it's about even in the DR to MDE, Colombia, maybe a tad more in MDE at an upscale venue. Outside food is about the same in SJO but MUCH cheaper, varied, and better in MDE. Taxis are WAY cheaper in both SJO and MDE over the rip-off taxi unions in the DR. Flights to SJO and MDE are normally cheaper than POP for us anyway. They say POP has a heavy airport tax to fund infrastructure improvements. That's OK, the local politicians gotta eat too. Right?
Entered the armed guard checkpoint to the gated community of Costambar and stopped into Yenny's Market for our usual counting party in the back of the store. We each exchanged exactly $1,000 USD, stuffed our pockets with that thick monopoly game peso wad and bought some bottled water on the way out. BB's is a 2 minute ride away. Gave our driver a 200 peso tip and swaggered into the compound like it was our home. Entering BB's always gives me that feeling I get at home when I put on my favorite comfy pajamas or bed slippers in the winter after a hard day at work. Tim was there, as always, and after our usual exchange of heart felt, smart ass, sarcastic greetings, another counting party ensues as we each pay $384.00 worth of cash pesos for our room, tax, and split taxi costs calculated at 45.5 to the USD. We always pay in pesos to save a few bucks. Grab our keys, a few more jokes, and a quick review of our framed wall pic from a previous trip. Yup, we made the wall of shame along with dozens of others. We love Tim (in a non-gay way) and Tim loves us. Right?
Thankfully, the Olympics was on down there piped in on a NYC based NBC station. We are both HUGE fans and spent a lot of time in our AC rooms watching it between sessions. Though they won't admit it, so did many of the other guests, much to the chagrin of the chicas. The TV's at the bar and dining area were usually fixed on the Olympics too and there was often several other guests watching. The place seemed a bit over half full, a bit slow but not dead by any means. A typical day for me started with a cup of that decent colon blow Dominican coffee. First coffee dump (or two) out of the way, time to get some exercise. I found a nice 5 K distance run in the area. For the runners reading this, turn right out BB's front gate and just hug the coastline following along a decent dirt road with nice houses. Turn right when you can't go any further along the coast and follow a common sense route back through the hood on some side streets till you hit that small hill with a nice view just behind Yenny's in the village center. Dodge the moto concho retards and just before the obvious security gate turn right on a paved road for a long, flat straightaway with the golf course on your left and decent houses on the right with some helpful, cooling shade trees along the way and turn right at the end and descend gently to the Mango's Golf Course club house. BTW, Mangos looks like a nice place to try lunch or dinner but the gym is small and needs better AC. Take your next left on the dirt road and you'll see the ocean. Follow this coast road to the right that many BB's enthusiast already know, all the way back to BB's taking your first left after the tennis courts. Bring a bottle of water with you for hydration. But I digress. My first night started off with a double team BBBJ in the Jacuzzi followed by a nice 3-some finish back in the room with some background porn on. Remember, the free porn channels are #300 and 301 on your remote. That set me back 4,000 or $87.33 but it was well worth it as both were cum friendly. Right?
My days went like this: I'd cool off for a while after the hot run. The pool was out. At this time of year the water was p-i-s-s warm...but CLEAN! My room water pressure this trip was MUCH better than my previous trips but the hot water took a while to kick in. I said nothing to Tim preferring the cooler showers to cool off anyways. Next, breakfast and more colon blow with the wing whilst watching some more Olympics in the restaurant. Depending on my mood I'd usually start off with a Jacuzzi BBBJ. Somebody wisely turned off the heater so the cooler water actually felt great. I like to audition the chica(s) in the Jacuzzi, gauge their attitude and performance. If you don't nut it's only 600 pesos (each if there's two working the cock.) If you dump your batch it's full price at 1,800 to the winner and 600 for the silver medalist. If we had a connection(s) then it was off to the room for a nice finish. In this fashion I ended up with two back to back bi 3-somes up in the room on day #2. It was great watching background USA Women's Volleyball whilst nutting the bi chicas. BTW, both bi teams were orally leche friendly and took my batch. Point, Set, MATCH to the Dominican women's teams under the ceiling fan! Right?
Things settled down after day #2. After that it was the usual no leche Jacuzzi BBBJ warmup followed by one kill in the early afternoon and then another after the night shift sauntered in. BB's food is still good but I detected a slight price increase, but still reasonable. A pig out two course breakfast with 10% tip included on the bill was about $12 bucks. I skipped lunch. Dinners might run you about $20-25. No need to tip as it's already included in the bar/rest bill but a few clinkers left on the table is appreciated. Drinks were reasonable. I NEVER put my charges on my room. It's much better to pay as you go to avoid accounting errors, and they do happen there sometimes. EVERY purchase results in the bartender hand writing a paper bill. So, let's say you wanted to buy a cup of ice for 5 pesos, the bartender painfully fills out a new paper bill just for that transaction. If you're hanging around at the bar then she'll just add to it as a tab. Ice is free BTW just using the above example for agonizing effect. When you're done, pay up. A small beer costs about $3.25 and a large Presidente was about $4.28 without the tip included, based on their drink menu. The most expensive mixed drink on their menu costs about $7 but most are in the $5 range. A bottled water costs $1. 77. WTF! In that heat, especially after a run I was pushing lots of water. I think that's too expensive. I adjusted by severely limiting my booze intake for health reasons and to economize. Maybe I should just go to Yenny's and buy a case of bottled water. Right?
Other observations: The WiFi was great down by the bar but would drop in and out back in my room on this trip. Nico stopped in on his crutches and it was good to see him recovering from his accident. He thinks he'll be back at work in 2 weeks, hell, maybe he's back there now. The staff service level was a bit better than all of my previous trips and the staff was much less retarded this time around. They were a bit faster at the restaurant and bar. We only had one botched meal. One night we asked for spaghetti with "marinara" sauce. When we pointed out a service error we were firmly told that Dominican marinara sauce just happens to look and taste like a creamy Alfredo sauce. Really? Who knew? We ate it anyway. Retarded. Another time I ordered a standard item on the dinner menu only to have our waitress enter into a lengthy consultation with another waitress as to what I actually wanted on the menu. They've both been working there for years yet haven't seemed to memorize their menu yet. Functional illiteracy perhaps? No, as I said earlier. Retarded! Yet, we both love it there anyway and keep cumming back for more. In all of my world travels, including a 6 month stint actually living in the DR, I can firmly state right here and now, and without any equivocation, that the DR is probably the most retarded place on earth. Right?
Will we return? Yes, without hesitation. As I wrote above there is absolutely no question that BB's offers the best bang for the buck in the western hemisphere. There is NO other place exactly like it. Yes, the "Mansion" in MDE is awesome, no question. Go there if you haven't already. And in SJO, venues like Hotel Del Rey, and the Sportsman Lodge along with Hotel Cocal in Jaco Beach have many good points. Go there too by all means. But at the end of the day BB's continues to offer the best value for the money, less travel stress overall (except for their airport retards), convenient beach, safe ambiance, less drama, and it's perfect for the budget minded first-time monger looking for a proper introduction to our hobby. We'll be back soon. Right?
P.S. Note all box pics taken were immediately post blowout. Right?
Question, is Blackbeard's the only place around to get BBBJ? Met a FL in a restaurant brought her to my AI hotel, never thought of asking before hand, anyway get to the room, and guess what BJ only with a rubber, sent her on her way, with half of the agreed money. Went to Kvair last night, met someone right up my street, nice T&A, can not bring a guest into AI late at night, she says a taxi to cabana, wait an hour and return 1000 p, use of cabana 1000 p she wants 3000 p, after the night before washout I am considering spending 5000 p for the hour, decide to do a full interview first, guess what, she will only blow with a rubber, what the hell is going on here in the DR. ? One reason I love the FKK clubs of Germany is BBBJ is the norm is most clubs with 99% of the girls.
Moving into Blackbeard's next week.

Have any of you guys had money missing from your safe? A prior time I visited I was sure of it but I changed out a large sum of money so it was not as easy to track. I only exchanged about 400 $ (18,000 peso) last time plus I had a couple thousand peso already and I woke up with 5000 peso in my safe after 2 girls how is that possible?

That is a silly question to ask. If Blackbeards has a safe they also have a theft problem, like any other hotel. If Blackbeards was so secure then why have a safe in each room!
Also, why think just a chica did it. I am sure that there have been many customers who have been locked out of their safes only to complain to the Blackbeards management and they finding a way to circumvent the security of your safe. For all you know it could have been a worker.
When I chica proof my hotel room I do so to protect myself also from the workers.
I've been to Blackbeards several times and know of cases where they have taken money, personal belongings, workers intentionally giving incorrect change back, and even overcharging for the food, only to pocket some of the money (and, of course, there is always the chica you spend time with ordering, behind your back, extra beers for her friends).
It happens all the time, even at Blackbeards. That is why some chicas are eventually fined and banned from the place. The same chicas you see at Blackbeards every so often you see in some of the Puerto Plata pick up places and even in Sosua. The last time I was at New Garden I bumped into one of the former Blackbeard chicas. If the chicas in Sosua and Puerto Plata can steal from you so can any chica at Blackbeards.
Management tries to monitor the bad behavior at Blackbeards, and even monitor people making such comments on this board (hey, they have to make money. I understand this yet people need to know the truth). I admire the owner John for lasting so long in the business and I would continue to go to Blackbeards whenever I get the chance (although I've found greener pastures elsewhere) but one needs to use discretion even in such a place. To say the workers or chicas don't steal in Blackbeards because it is against the rules is like saying there are no murders committed in the United States because it is against the law! The rules only lessen but do not stop any wrongdoing.
If you were responsible with your money and feel that someone took it this is what most likely happened.
You would be surprised what the workers and women would pull when they are dealing with intoxicated customers. Sometimes the sum of money is so low that the customer is not even aware of it. I've seen it.
Blackbeards is as safe a place as it gets yet one still needs to be careful. I find the same cons there as in any other place, but to a lesser degree.
I almost always take my keys to the bathroom. I did not have that problem, but once chica asked me about one thing I had in the safe and there is no chance that she was able to see it.

Booked into BB's for the plug and play situation, RTFF but still have a couple of questions.
1) In the 500 p jacuzzi BJ interview, do you drop your britches prior to getting in the water and are the sweeties able to breath underwater?
2) Best way to get unlocked, flip. Phone - cell sim card? May be doing some other activities (snorkeling on S side of DR, possible stay at Campo Alegre in Curacao, visit to friend in Panama and / or? Have a smart phone but hopefully can take care of logistics via wifi.
Thanks in advance for your responses.
Hi Riddler. Just disrobe before getting into the jacuzzi and take a seat on the edge somewhere and let the chica swallow the cock while she soaks in the water. That costs 600 pesos now but it's 1,800 if you dump your batch. On the phone thing BB's wifi is very strong at the bar / rest area but might waver in and out in your room depending which room you have. Not sure you should even bother getting a local phone there for a short trip but others might have different advice. Enjoy your trip there and your other venues. Please grace us with a good trip report (s). Hopefully with pics. LOL. Geo.

500 or 600 pesos doesn't really matter, that's a great interview process.
Regarding this cell phone: would like to have a working phone as I'm on a flexible schedule and I've bought a one-way ticket to the DR. Will be playing it by ear once I get there. Suspect I can get an orange card at the airport. If not, will deal with it during the week at Blackbeard's.
Hopefully can post some trip reports. New to the world of smartphones. This may be a boot camp for learning this device as one has to do something between rounds.
Again, muchisimo gracias.
Most of them will not do it, as they are afraid to get their hairs wet.

A quick question: what are the current rates in pesos? For ST and TLN?
ST=1,800 pesos for sure and LT=3,200 I think. I don't do LT so others can correct me. P.S. all box pics taken were immediate post blowout. Naturally. Enjoy your trip.

You don't have to tip but sometimes it's easier to just hand over 2 one thousand peso notes rather than dig for smaller bills. One trick is to save up your smaller bills from the change you get at their bar and keep it in the room safe just so you don't overpay. My experienced wing always brings those small bank envelopes he saves from home and when he gets there he fills those up with the exact 1,800 and just hands those over to the girls with no tip included. LOL. When we exchange money at Jenny's market we always ask the guy in the back room to break a 1,000 peso bill and give us some 100 or 200 peso notes for this reason. Hoard those smaller bills. Tipping is entirely optional and should only be done for good service.

Snorkel lessons in the tepid tub are 600 DP, if you don't free your swimmers...IMHO, a wise investment to gage session quality.
Just got back after a week at BBs. Prices quoted are correct: 1800ST, 3300 LT. Plenty of chicas hanging about. Spent time at the beach, but did little else. It rained a lot and I couldn't dive or do any of the hiking or country tours. Bad weather, and the recent hurricane blew away my chances.
Sorry, no pics this time, but Ii recommend the Italian restaurant in Costambar. Fantastic owner, and good pizza and steak.
Hi guys!
I have New Years free, and was thinking of dropping into Blackbeards. Anyone ever spent New Years at Blackbeards? I assume that they have some kind of party. Do the prime girls work? Or is it empty, as the girls spend time with their own families?
Thanks in advance!
Manny I've done NYE there at least 1/2 dozen times. At first it was a problem as the chicas would book out of the place to spend time with their families. My last 4 trips or so BB's management has cracked down and it's been fine but expect that about 1 minute after the ball drops in Santo Domingo the place clears right out. New Years day picks up and things return to normal after that as they all need some coin to buy presents for their Latin Christmas which happens about a week later. This obligatory pic was taken from one of those trips. Have fun. Geo.
Note: All box pics taken were immediately post blow out. Naturally.

Hey guys,
Quick question, I am staying at Blackbeards next month but because of a scheduling conflict they are offering me the owners house across the street. I am a vet of BB's but I have never seen the house and they don't have photos of it. Anybody have any knowledge of the house and its amenities?

Is there any similar place worth going to near Santo Domingo?
No, BB's is a truly unique place in that regard in the western hemisphere. You would need to travel to Medellin, Colombia and stay at the, "Medellin Mansion" more properly known as, Hotel Medellin Plaza for a similar vibe. In Costa Rica the Hotel Cocal in Jaco Beach or the Hotel del Rey in San Jose have a hotel setup where tons of chicas show up mostly at night but they are not managed by the hotels in the same way that BB's does it. Check out my various trip reports on these places on the Colombia and CR threads. The BB's thread here has all of my trip reports going back several years.

[QUOTE=Jnd37;1990316]I'll be over there from Feb 4-9. First time at Blackbeard's.[/QUOTE]I am starting my count down now! 6 days until I am on the ground!
Fly from home to EWR for my afternoon flight to POP. Flight on United was good but work to everyone flying UA. The leg room is terrible and the internet only works for the first 45 min of the flight. Once you are over open wtter the Satellite drps coverage. The flight was jam packed as well. This is different than my previous trips to the DR. The flight was usually half full. The dynamic of the travelers has changed as well to POP. IMHO. Seems to be a lot of weekend Millionaires on this flight but it could be due to SB weekend.
Arrive at POP. Changed very little from 8 years ago except the newer looking customs area and rental car section being inside now. Met the BB taxi. There was another fellow monger heading to BBs so we chatted in the beat up taxi while it barreled down the road. Stopped at Jenny's grabbed water and exchanged money.
Check in at 3 pm was quick and smooth. Room was what I expected and has not changed much since my last trip. The place looked the same but is as well kept for DR standards. My room everything worked and it will be good for the next 4 nights. Wifi is OK. I work remote and had hoped to try this out to see if I could possibly work a few days here. Probably not good for making a conf call but you can rely on it for email and such but the speed is slow. But I did not expect high speed in the DR so it will work for the few things I need it to do.
Headed to the bar and the girls were "Mi Amor" , "Mi Amor". Fresh meat! LOL. I grabbed a beer and Mary walks over and grabs my dick and starts saying the right things. So we were off for an ST. Decent performer but not GFE. She did get the job done but I warned her when the condom goes on that she is in for a pounding. She gave a very good BBBJ then CFS for a 20 min and no pop. So I said BBBJ to finish. After a few Deep strokes I felt better and pop went my weasel. Showered and back to the bar.
Grabbed a beer and dinner. More "Mi Amor" , "Mi Amor". Bellinna. Tall and dances nice, flirts with me while eating. Then session with her. Same routine shower, then BBBJ, warning to her, 10 minutes of pounding CFS but to completion. She was more GFE than Mary which makes me pop a lot faster. Showered and back to the bar.
Grabbed a beer and *name cannot remember) comes a calling me. Telling she loves "leche" LOL. I had not planned for more than 2 as I was a bit dehydrated but WTH. Up to the room. Bella took a quick shower and then gave me a nice back rub (nice touch), BBBJ, then CFS but just pecks on the mouth for kisses. So the little head gets bored and starts to go to sleep. I warned her about the condom. So she starts HJ so get me going then we try Mish. It was good for 10 min but was getting hot. So pull out and rip the condom off and back to HJ as she starts to loose interest. Then I said "lay back on the bed and spread your pussy" I am now between her legs and stroking then I start to rub against her flat tummy. Then she closes her legs and I stroke in between her legs without penetrating. That did it. It felt enough like pussy that my mind said "DUDE you are in her!" and that was enough. Popped all over her tummy. All safe according to the "rules". She seemed to like it as well because she moaned at the feeling of my touch vs the latex. So I made a date with her later in the week.
Dehydrated even more I shower and hit the bed while the rest of the hotel is rocking in the "disco". Need rest for day 2.
Day 2 -
Woke and reflected on the previous day and was optimistic for today. Shit, shower and a shave. Then the eggs breakfast. The food at BBs is decent. I then go back to my room to work on a few things until 11 am when all the chicas start rolling in. I grabbed Maria, cute face and slim body for an ST. She was a decent performer and had no children so her pussy was tight even with the condom. BBBJ, CFS, then I rub up and down her ass with a bare mini me for a bit until I decided for BBBJ to finish. Nothing to really write home about. Performance was a bit lazy. And that is the thing I am finding about all of the DR girls so far. They are pretty lazy compared to girls in other countries that give GFE and work for their pay. But alas it is just the way the DR is.
After lunch I walked down the beach with a few other hotel guests. Beers and food and some great views on the beach. Came back to the hotel and the evening shift was starting to roll in. So watched then come in while the rest of the mongers drank and yucked it up. Bella brought a friend with her tonight that she wanted me to go with. Amanda, spinner small breasts but perky, young and no child. Set up an appointment at 7 in my room and drank a few more beers.
Amanda shows up, shower for her, shower for me and off to town. Decent head but not great, CFS (covered full service) with a tight pussy. She rode me for a good 2-3 minutes on and off until I felt a nice feeling inside and pop into the cover. That is rare for me to pop in the cover but she made it happen.
The rest of the night was flirting and watching the baby doll outfits parade around. The girls are similar in my mind to what to get from an attitude perspective in a strip club in the US. Very affectionate and act as if they will be GFE until you hooked then in the room it is all business. If I wanted that with better looking women then I would just go to an FKK.
Bella comes to my room after hitting the disco and having a few "sessions" earlier with a couple of big parties. Hmmm. Sloppy seconds and thirds probably. Showers for both and she speaks very little English so not much to say other than "ready? She does a half ass quick BJ and then tries to ram me into her pussy half hard. She is tight enough as it is and I need to be at full attention to get in. So I protest and say keep going on BJ and she look pissed. So I grabbed my phone and translated "you can always leave now if you wish". She saw that and said " no is OK" and back to the BJ. I knew I was not going to get GFE so I figured either do it or don't I do not care at this point. She continues sucking and I could hear the girl in the room above us moaning and the bed pounding on the wall. That was a nice seedy touch.
I am finally at attention and she lays back so I can enter. We do Mish, doggie, lazy doggie and finish with mish so I could go very deep. As I was hitting her cervix that put me over the edge. Pop. She feels it and almost immediately says "OK, baby?" I laugh and say "yeah. OK". Showers and then I lay to sleep while she plays on her phone for then next few hours.
The rest of the night was on and off sleep. Woke to her wearing her bra and underwear in bed. WTF. So I snuggle up to her midway through the night and she says "no baby me sleep" . But mini me was saying "no sleepy". So I rub up and down her sweet ass and start the rub in between her legs and she relents and lets me finish without penetration. I clean us both up and fall dead asleep for 3 hours.
Wake up with another monster wood. She is lying on her back now and I just hop on and start Mish (after grabbing a condom of course) After 2 minutes of deep strokes I was done and a "si papi! I popped.
Time to start Day 3.
Overall. After being gone for 8 years I see a few changes but it is still basically the same place. The girls are more plentiful and look better in my opinion than before however the quality in the room is shit compared to my previous visits. They are pretty lazy and not GFE. Now this could be just the way they all are now but I will not be back. I had many chicas over my 4 days but for those that have been to Asia you will probably be disappointed in the service.
Heading home relaxed but more knowledgeable about the DR culture and how I just do not care for it.
I share your feelings but what can you expect. You are living in a *****house. The girls see as many guys as possible and have no time for GFE. I have stayed at BB twice and think you do way better in Sosua. You have chance to girls less hard core. BB is great for the guys who are looking for a quick no complication sex. I can not get excited about casas.

You are probably right but from what I saw in Sosua was NOT to my liking. Many were a little thicker than I like. I was there for a evening and was not impressed with the selection or attitudes there. I am not a black guy and they seemed to gravitate towards them vs us old white dudes. LOL.
When in Thailand and the houses there the girls were very GFE and really willing to please. They seem to like old white dudes and are great actresses That helps mini me pop a lot faster!
I did have fun with this cutie. The last photo is not a pic of her but it reminds me of what she did while riding me. Let's just say visual from my spank bank.
[QUOTE=OldKool;1995323]I share your feelings but what can you expect. You are living in a *****house. The girls see as many guys as possible and have no time for GFE. I have stayed at BB twice and think you do way better in Sosua. You have chance to girls less hard core. BB is great for the guys who are looking for a quick no complication sex. I can not get excited about casas.[/QUOTE]
They treat me like a king when I am there. I speak enough Spanish and dance. However in truth the most important thing you need is money and confidence. The color the girls love is green dollars. You have to do more then one evening to evaluate Sosua. I have been all over the island and nothing can compare to Classicos on most nights.

Glad you enjoyed your time there. They treated me well enough but I know very little Spanish and I am sure that is a huge disadvantage. I loved Sosua back when Passions was open. Now not so much. Not my type of girls and the hustle is on compared to 8-10 years ago. DR used to be my go to place.
To each there own. I had fun but I am a spoiled dude after being treated the way I am in Asia. White dudes seem to rule there. LOL.

To All,
It was reported some months ago that "Gringo," formerly a cook at BB, and husband of Adriana, one of the waitresses, was experiencing kidney failure.
Now the new is that he passed away, and this leaves his wife, Adriana, and their kids in tough times.
For those "high rollers" that would like to "make it rain" in a meaningful way, contact BB for a means of helping out Adriana with a few bucks.
Those mongers that are currently staying at BB can see about leaving some generous tips for her.
Its tough to make it in the DR with two paychecks, but on one waitress' pay, its really tough.
You reap what you sow.
Suerte,
Yanqui69.

Hello all,
I owe anyone who can answer these questions a beer:
What's the variety of chicas like at BBs? Are light skinned and caramel colored chicas available?
Does BB have a health policy, like clubs in Europe?
My first time at BB will happen soon. Can't wait.
Thanks!

Generally though, they have a a few light skinned, lots of caramel and zero to a few very dark skinned girls. I don't know what exactly the health policy is in Europe but there is a government agency that stops into BB's on a regular basis and does safe sex education talks with the girls and the girls are required by BB's to get monthly health checks. I had to return to the USA For a couple months for health reasons so give the beer that you owe me to a girl named Deja, she is an old friend, tell her it is from Tom the gringo gordo. Enjoy your trip.

Anybody know if Blackbeards can accommodate a male / female couple looking for a bisexual chica to party with? Can this be setup in advance?

Planned a trip during the second week of May 10-15, but the forecast (& Mr gogo) are saying it's all thunderstorms. It's my first time to the DR. Have read the entire forum on BB; much thanks to the veteran members for the info. Was wondering if anyone knows from experience, will the lineup be weak in quality bc of the inclimate weather? Also, is the island itself boring when it rains every day?

I look at the online weather sites for Pto Pta every day and they are very unreliable. The proximity of Mount Isabel means Pto Pta has its own micro-climate.
2) Unless a named tropical storm is nearby, rainstorms rarely last more than an hour or two. And it is not the tropical storm season until September.
3) You have posted in the Blackbeards section. If that is where you are staying the weather will hardly affect you as you will be shaded and sheltered.
4) Weather will not affect the availability of chicas whatsoever.
5) Weather will not affect how boring the island is. If you have read the posts here as you say, you will know that some people think the island is always boringl while others think it is always a carnival. In fact their views tell us more about those individuals than about the island. If this is your first visit to the DR and you already worry about being bored, there is something wrong with you.
6) Concentrate on spending your money in the most effective way, and on physically protecting it and your belongings. Do not worry about the weather. The only exceptions might be if you are a keen diver or sailor, which would be weather-sensitive. But in those cases, why would you stay at Blackbeards?
7) What is LU? An open-air Chinese restaurant?

My girls that live there have been complaining about it raining for the last week. When it rains regularly the girls like to stay inside and play, usually at a discount. I think rain affects the girls getting clients more than it hurts us getting pussy.
You may need to make an appointment if you have particular chica in mind.

I've often observed chicas arriving on a motoconcho with a shower cap protecting their hair. I would also suggest taking along a compact collapsible umbrella for emergencies, or even just getting from your room to the covered bar area. (When leaving, put them in the checked baggage, as I once had one confiscated by security on departure. Some BS about it being metal). On boredom and rain, its about the same as being in Florida during a summer downpour. Use the opportunity to kick back under cover with a beer and a cigar. Of course any outdoor activities (beach, etc) would be affected, but that is universal.
Hey guys,
Planning to go down to Blackbeards possibly next month. My situation may be unique and was wondering if I will have any issues based on what I am looking for at Blackbeards. I am in a relationship and get all the sex I need. I also do not like using condoms, which I hear is essential at BBS. What I would like to indulge at Blackbeards is my foot fetish. I just want some foot fetish play, some hand jobs and I love body rubs / scratches, specially from a chica with long nails (another fetish). So would this request be easily fulfilled or do you think it could be an issue. Think the Mamasan would hook me up? Any info would be appreciated. Also can I use dollars or do I need to exchange to DOP at BBs?

You need to exchange your $. Do it at Yenny's just inside the gates of Costambar.
Try talking to chica you like directly. Mamasans may suggest one of her favorites, not the best performer.

[QUOTE=Bliadun;2031811]Try talking to chica you like directly. Mamasans may suggest one of her favorites, not the best performer.[/QUOTE]Thanks for the info. My Spanish is not so good which is why I thought the Mamasan would be able to understand me best (figured she speaks best English). I read some girls speak English better than others, so guess I will try that first.
Just wasn't sure if what I was looking would be understood. I figure I have more of a chance with this at BB's than with freelancers in Sosua.
I never plan to return. There is nothing wrong with the place but Sosua gives you way more options. The women there speak enough english to conduct business trust me. At BB you had to wait for the chica you wanted. The girls at BB are hit or miss no better looking then the girls on the Sosua streets. BB has some advantages. You will not get a scam queen and the price is consistent. The day may come when I need BB. Sosua has more option in hotels, food and a great beach.

For a first timer, BB is a good choice. There is quality control (thieves, druggies, scam artists, drama queens get banned) and there is a place to take complaints if there are any. Also monthly health checks; not perfect, but way better than nothing, - which is the case on the streets.
Likewise, it depends on you. There are those who want to show their "game" and enjoy "the hunt. " That's fine. I never had the time or patience for that process. My Spanish is very good, but when I take a trip, my time is limited. No time for games or "the hunt. " I preferred to make maximum use of limited time down there.
There are guys who enjoy "fishing. " They enjoy the process of finding and landing their "catch" so spending a few hours "landing one" is part of the fun. If I lived there full time, that would be great. But if I only have a few days, I'd rather spend my time "enjoying seafood" than catching it. Hence, I always enjoyed BB.
(There is room under the sun for all tastes, so there is no "right" or "wrong" way to do it. Its your vacation, so do what YOU enjoy most.
Suerte,
Y69.
I posted a similar question on the PNma forum. I am torn between BB and Panama to indulge my foot fetish. I also have a Nail fetish, love women with long fingernails, getting HJ's and to be scratched by them. My plan for Panama was to stay at Marriot across from Habanos (where all the pros are) and take Chicas back to my room. It may be a bit expensive compared to BB, and I am not sure which venue will suit my fetish needs better. Would appreciate any opinions as I am a newbie.

It that is the case, will try to provide some basic info. The chicas at BB have daytime and night time shifts. You can pretty much view the selection as they arrive from one vantage point. There is a "mama san" or "head chica" to assist you with your needs. Its pretty hard to imagine any chicas refusing the fetish you describe, as its a piece of cake compared to some stuff they've likely heard.
To get an idea of the selection of girls, I suggest going online to request their monthly newsletter. Or email BB and request a list of the chica's photos be sent to you.
BB is often criticized for being too easy, like "shooting fish in a barrel" or being "spoon-fed. " For convenience and time involved, its hard to beat, though.

The safe would be a good place for your syringes. Of course, the maids have access to the mini-fridge, but they have access to the whole room, and I have never experienced a theft there. To prevent any problems or confusion, suggest you coordinate with the management. They can offer a more definitive solution. Perhaps offering to store the meds for you, or, perhaps instructing the maids that your medication is not to be disturbed. The notion of a maid risking her livelihood to steal medication is pretty unlikely. No market for insulin that I know of. Try emailing the management to discuss it.

Arrived at STI today around 6 pm. Much thanks to Mr Gogo for allaying my fears of the weather forecasts in his normal gracious manner. Thanks also to Mr Pooter for responding in length as well (though the remarks on what kind of person would be fearful of not knowing what exactly to expect in a country one's never been too were a bit unwarranted and caustic for an honest question, which turned me off from responding. That being said, one still shouldn't solicit advice w / out repaying w / a report. So here we go).
Nelson picked me up from the airport. From rtff, know it could've been done cheaper, but as it's my first time here on zero sleep in 40 hrs and I was already getting in a bit late, for me it was worth the $95 hit to not have to risk finding a less dependable way to BB.
Got to BB after a quick stop in at Jenny's supermarket, where I received the same exchange rate as the one stated on today's dop: usd Google search. Paid Nico in pesos, who was supremely helpful and welcoming, and went to the room to freshen up around 8 pm.
When I got to the bar around 8:30, there were around thirteen girls in the bar area. Seemed to be cliqued up in two groups of 5 or so with three girls, two of whom were the hottest girls there from the ones I could see. Before I could make eye contact, two of the girls from one of the groups of 5 beelined over to me and started the full-court threesome press. Fingers through hair, grinding, boobs all over me, kisses on the neck. The darker toned girl had a nice slim body on her with cute face, but I managed to finagle my way out of their proposed threesome to go upstairs with her friend who was about 5'3", lighter toned with a solid phat a $$, nice legs that led one's eyes to her perfect booty, and a cute baby face.
She says vamos, I said OK. She goes to get her stuff from her room and is back in 3 min. She goes up the stairs first shaking that booty as I cup her plump firm cheeks. YMMV, but we started immediately with groaning (her) DFK'ing, followed by DATY, emphatic BBBJ & ball-licking / sucking. Once I can't take anymore she throws a condom on me and then gets on for a reverse CG. She's just using me in the best way possible at this point, grinding her g-spot on my head, but after a while I want to take over so I flip her to missionary. Big mistake. Should've stayed in CG because I finished shortly thereafter LOL. 1800 pesos for just over an hour and one pop but total GFE so no complaints.
After the long flight, lack of sleep, and too much vodka. I decided to crash till manana. More reports to come.
During the week at least, as previously stated in this forum, the girls start to clear out by 11 and the bars / restaurants in the gated area close as well, so for newbies- plan your evening & expectations accordingly. Disappointment is the product of mismanaged expectations.
Also, the girl w the perfect booty short the time to just under an hour but as it was $262 cheaper than an HR GFE at home and she was very very very GFE w me, (kept going for df & rimmed me during the BBBJ, which isn't my #1 fave but does show how willing the girl was to please me), I didn't mind since my little brain had finished and my big brain just wanted to crash.
Will give her slim darker complexion friend with the nice rack a turn tomorrow and at least one / two more ladies. Report to come. (For the veterans, stating now that it won't be as enthralling as JamesBlack's reports but will be just as honest.).

You said nothing about being fearful. You were worried you might be "bored", which I thought was odd coming from someone who was not only visiting a country for the first time, but would be staying in a brothel where considerations of the weather would be very peripheral.
But I am sorry if you were offended. You have added value to the board with your excellent reports and I hope you will continue them. Such detailed reports from first-timers (to the benefit of those debating whether or not to visit the DR) are the most valuable part of the board.

You're correct, wording could have been better. Also, you were right, having a great time despite the occasional rain.
Keep your syringes in your room safe and the insulin vials in your room fridge in a protective container. Best to place the vials on the bottom of the fridge or on the fridge door shelf away from the ice cube tray to avoid freezing it. The maids won't touch it. If concerned put a note that says, "medecina" on it and you'll be fine. Pharmacy across from Jenny's should have it in stock just in case. Watch your hard booze intake as you know. They have high sugar soft drinks in the fridge in case you're having a hypoglycemic reaction at night or just buy some OJ at Jenny's and put it in the fridge. Bring some high carb snacks in your carry on store them in the closet. The Chicas seem to enjoy chewy granola bars at token gifts after. LOL. Enjoy!

I agree that the taxi ride from Santiago to Costambar is a killer. That said, I just checked Travelocity for flights from my city in Florida, and POP was $220 more expensive than STI, so its still cheaper, though that trip to / from the airport would be a pain.
Suggestion, when you post reports regarding the chicas, both good and bad, its helpful if you can post the name. The information is useful, - but not if we don't know which chica we're talking about.
Thanks again; look forward to further posts.
Suerte,
Y69.
Day 2:
Got up a little late today. Didn't plan my day out very well, so I only ended up going with one chica. More on that later.
Went downstairs in search of some food. There were roughly 8-10 girls entertaining themselves due to the lack of guests. Decided to walk to Rick's to check out their menu, as the girls were being pretty aggressive and I was hungry for food.
Ricks Cafe menu seemed geared towards Americans, so I decided to turn around and check out the restaurant on the beach here, Estrella del Mar. About a 5-10 minute easy walk from BB. Seemed very safe during the day. The service was great, beer was cold, and menu varied. Not sure the cost relative to local price points, but compared to home was very cheap. I got the fried fish w french fries; awesome. The adjacent restaurants seemed to have many locals patronizing them, usually a good indicator of quality. May try them out tomorrow.
Needed to grab some water and supplies so I asked about a moto. The bartenders can order you one if there aren't any present. The cost was 100 pesos to Jenny's and back. Was told they also go to puerto plata for same amount by front desk agent (not Nico).
Got back, went up to the room and ended up passing out till around 5-6. Woke up a bit groggy so went down for coffee. Sat at the bar and the second 3 some pair of the day came over. Deflected for a while and then retreated back to my room with some excuse as I wasn't feeling either girl. Sidenote, I probably sound lame as most may welcome such attention. Personally, I've mongered in Germany many many times so I'm comfortable w the "game" and the women. I'm just more used to and am learning I prefer the guy initiating or indicating interest and then the girl engaging if she wants, saves a lot of time saying no. . Or maybe I am lame LOL.
Went back down to the bar to watch the Caps. Penguins game. Sat down at the end of the bar right by the pool. Just as I did, a cute girl, lighter complexion. Fuller be cups. Tiny belly but slim body otherwise, begins to mi amor me. That's when one of the hotties from yeast beelined right over and cockblocked the other girl. As I was feeling her, I didn't mind. Think her name was Amber, but she had shorter cropped hair, nice full see cups, also lighter toned with a big soft ass. She let me order dinner, garlic & parmesan pasta (very simple but tasty and really all I wanted), eat and watch the game till about halfway thru the third period. Caps were down 2-0 w me watching, so I thought maybe we need a rally-fck, so vamos I said.
We got to the room and she didn't go all business but there was a tone-change. Started w a shower, me first her next. She has a cute more feminine Michelle Rodriguez face, perfectly tiny nipples, trimmed but not quite shaved, perfect plump ass w no cellulite. Did notice a C-section scar and what I think was a small baby bump, since her tits didn't not seem like they had ever nursed & she was tight too.
No DFK or LFK, but whatever. Kissed my body down into the BBBJ. BBBJ skills were excellent but short. Attention to the boys was just very light licking with a hurried HJ. After 5 minutes she looks for cover. Wasn't sure if it was all the presidents and bacardi or knowing that I'm being given the rush-routine, but I could only manage a 75% chub. We start w her on top, but she's got that "he's not into it" look on her face and now I'm starting to lose blood in the desired area. She jumps off and goes back to the BBBJ. Only got to a semi. We switch to DATY, so I can buy some time to wake up my guy. She Os and I try for another cover but it goes again. At this point she seems dejected because it seems my guy likes my stranger hand more than this particular kitty or I'm taking too much time, so I tell her "just too much alcohol", permisso. She understands and asks about tomorrow morning. I deflect w a maybe because I don't sense she'll be any more enthused manana & maybe it wasn't the booze. Paid 1800. She asked for a propina. I give her a look. I know she knows she's not supposed to ask but if she's so hard up to ask for one when clearly I didn't have the best time & what with her maybe having one on the way, whatever. I give her the 200 pesos some have suggested would be an adequate non-bank-breaking propina if no 100 peso notes are on hand. She says thank you and I say goodbye. (For newbies: if you're in the same situation, the hotel's welcome book clearly states the girls are not to demand a tip, so don't feel compelled to comply if asked. There is also a comment card box at the front desk they encourage you to use if you're not satisfied).
Vitamins V or see wouldve helped, they have both for sale at the front desk - 150 pesos for 2, but I have high cholesterol and blood pressure so I've always been wary of taking them as they say those conditions are usually present in the rare cases of heart complications w Vitamin V & the Vitamin see risks sound super crappy. Any advice from experienced veterans with like conditions as to actual risks would be appreciated. Contemplating maaaaybe trying a quarter or half V-pill to mitigate the risks, if need be.
Also for BB newbies, seems that even if she's super into you like my chica yesterday, the girls seem to be aware of how close to 11 pm it is during session, which may lead to a rushed session so she's not stuck here or will have to change plans to get home. Both my sessions have started around 10. Would suggest planning and picking a chica at least by 9 so as to maybe avoid feeling rushed. Will day session & start another before 9 tomorrow to test out my hypothesis & report findings. Also during the week at least the area shuts down by the 11 ish as well so manage expectations if you're interested in partying to the wee hours here.
Have another week in DR, so I'm not put off by how the evening went. Just that the Caps lost. Feel like if I had managed to shoot one in goal, we would've won LOL. Also and at the risk of being obvious, will 100% confirm the advice that spanish helps immensely, as I only speak a little and can tell once my vocab is spent and I can't banter, they seem to bore a bit. Would make it feel much less business-like for those not accustomed to this being a transaction.
Day 3:
Slept in late as I couldn't fall asleep the day before.
Tried to visit The Anchor, up the street from Estrella del Mar, but they're only open from 8 am-2 pm it seems. BTW, there's a small market on that street that has bottles of water for 10 pesos and other goods that seemed very very reasonably priced. Good stop for a road beer and such.
Went back to Estrella del Mar and got the Cordon Bleu. Serviceable but the chicken portion of the dish was an off color but cooked through; no ill effects, but off-putting to the western traveler. Order something else perhaps.
Motoconcho'd to Jenny's for more $ exchange, still 47.2 pesos: and perrier for my vodka sodas.
Took another nap when I got back. Went to the bar when I got up & quickly got snatched up, pun intended, by one of the threesome-girls from the day before. Didn't catch her name, but she was about 5'10" with heels, seemed late 20's, nice rack in dress (droopy when out of it, but still nice), blonde dyed hair (or wig), caramel complexion, long legs, big nipples, w another plump dominicana booty. Face was cute but a wee bit off feature-wise, if you know what I mean. Probably a 6-8 for those adhering to a 1-10 scale, depending on your handicap.
Got to the room and she went to shower. Came out in her towel, and had me lay down. BBBJ was excellent w plenty of sucking of the boys. Will say that in my experience, on average, the BBBJ skills of the DR working girls at BBx are superior to the laufhaus / FKK / agent tours ladies of Germany. She employed the licking up and down the shaft, worked the head well, all that stuff you hope for. Went for the cover but asked for more head; no complaints & then didn't stop till I went for cover. She got on top and started the rodeo. Responded to all my changes in motions and kept up well. Finished fairly quickly as I skipped the DFK and DATY, will explain why shortly. 1800 pesos, no request for tip. Non rushed but could've lasted longer.
As for not attempting DATY, after showering she immediately went to turn off all lights except for one bedside light. I never begrudge a lady for being modest, but with working girls I don't normally attribute this to being modest. Usually, my suspicion is there's something amiss whether it just be something she's self conscious of or that there's something off otherwise. Either way, when she does that I normally skip the DATY as it's never pleasant going down there only to find you don't want to be down there. Regardless, second best encounter of the trip.
Walked her out and took a quick wash and chilled before heading out for dinner. Got a motoconcho to take me to "a bueno ristorante"(sp? Dude took me the loooong way to the Italian place right around the corner next to Rick's. Didn't feel like bitching him out for trying to hustle, so I said maybe somewhere different and then most of the way to Jenny's market made him turn around to take me back to the Italian place. If he's going to hustle me for 100 pesos, I was going to make him drive me around a bit first.
Free mini bruschetta plate when I sat down. Menu was quite varied. Got the chicken parm. I know LOL. Which was good & the correct color meat, one small presidente and a bottle of water for 880 pesos total. A little pricey compared to other meals I've had but it was well prepared meal, definitely a good place to go once you tire of the BB dinner menu. If you are allergic to cats maybe find another place though as there are two that seem to live there, had a feeding bowl. Walked the 3 minutes back to BB LOL.
Once back at BB, they had the Thursday disco thing going. My room's right outside of the upstairs bar area they hold it in. I work nights, so the noise wouldn't bother me when I'm sleeping but if it bothers you, you may want to ask for a room away from here if you're noise-sensitive. They do finish by 11 however, so if you're up till then anyway it's a non-issue. Also the wifi is freaking excellent in this room, netflix streams like at home.
Walked by the disco room and katya (not sure if I heard the name right) from my first night cut me off at my room. Welcome surprise as I was going to try to find her anyway. Same performance as first night. I'm not sure I mentioned it but she's about 5'5" w small A cups and that solid phat booty I noted, if you want to find her. Started the session at 10:45 and finished by 11:50 as she had a motoconcho waiting for her till it we were finished. I think I may have inadvertently gotten pegged as a quickie artist & may be getting rushed since the girls talk, although I am pulling sessions right up at the cut-off time. Will mention something to the next girl, but for $33 I'm not hurting. Just don't want to alter standards for mongers to follow; previous posts have stated that tourist mongers who agree to any price lower than home have jacked up the market prices in places like Costa Roca and I think Sosua as well maybe. Really just mention it to advise newbies to try to set what your standards w / your first session so that when the girls talk w each other they'll know what to expect from you.
Sidenote, noticing some weird ISG server access issues when I try to post. No problem viewing, but as soon as I post once or try to post, I can't hit the server for like a day. Haven't been able to reach the site since last night. (Just came back up now) Not super concerned but I consider myself street smart and the key to that for me is always being able to tell when somethings even the slightest bit off and then weighing risks. That being said and since I'm including a lot of details that may make me easily identifiable to the staff and other mongers here in town that may be reading the forum, I may compose and save subsequent reports to post when I get back home in a week or so. I value my anonymity. Know I'm most likely just being paranoid but since it'll be my ass if I'm not, I'll probably just play it safe after posting this report. Don't want to join dave for the indefinite DR stay.
Almost forgot! Newbies-- Do not use your smartphone in the passenger's seat w / your window wide open. Was informed motorcyclists snatching smartphones as they drive by isn't unheard of, especially leaving Santiago airport.

[QUOTE=InigoMontoya;2034532]Day 2&3:
.[/QUOTE]Thanks for the post.
I'd like to suggest a few points.
On the poor chica experience; it seemed there was no chemistry. I'd suggest cutting your losses. Unless you don't give up easily, thank her for her time, and pay / see her off. You didn't climax, so paying full price was her propina. I wouldn't have given more. Don't encourage an indifferent performance.
Yes, try to establish upfront what you want, so there are no misunderstandings or surprises. Yes, the girls will share with the others what a guy likes, if he is abusive or a gentleman, etc. The semi-aggressive approach of the chicas you describe is a new development. Used to be the case that they waited for a look from you, or the come on was much more subtle. That said, a caress or a quick grope from a younger woman is not totally unpleasant.
On the subject of Viagra, not sure if you know, but the farmacia across from Jenny's sells it at way below US prices (and cheaper than the hotel). I am not a doctor, but a quick internet check on WebMD, says if you are healthy enough to have sex, you can use V without fear. But, as you say, start at half dose (50 MG).
On late hour dates, I never had a problem with that. Talk to the chica. Some commute from local communities, some rent rooms in Costambar or Puerto Plata. But buses to the other towns run very late.

Inigos post about girls having slight attitude about not finishing, rushing and communication being an issue concerns me. How will they act with someone like me who is only interested in foot fetish, being massaged and given a hand job? If it turns awkward cause its not what there used to it will suck. So maybe pulling chicas from Habanos in Panama would be better being that its not a brothel. I have no issue getting sex but It is more difficult to convince a girl to satisfy my foot fetish than getting her to fuck me. Which is why I turn to Pros for this. Any feedback would be welcome, but I feel like I am the oddball here, so maybe hard for you guys to relate.

Note that in his reports, he also mentions a great experience he had with another. That happens. I was a regular there for about 6-7 years. Some girls are into it, some not.

That is why trip reports should ALWAYS include the name of the chica. A review of a nameless chica does me little good.
As I said earlier, when you arrive, settle in, get comfortable, and if your Spanish is limited, talk to the chica that manages the others, explaining what you want. Without explaining, girls presume you want the "usual" but would be more than happy to go with massage, feet, etc. I really think you'll have no problems. Trust me, these girls have heard far worse requests than a foot fetish. For a relative newby, with limited Spanish, this is my recommendation.

Its pretty sensible if you think about it. If you can't manage your spending well, it ensures your room is paid for, without resorting to cash machines, an extra 20% with credit cards, etc. I always paid for my room upon arrival, and one less thing to think about. $300 upon arrival for several days is not a big deal.
It also protects them, in case some guy gets a burr up his butt and decides to leave early, leaving them with a vacant room, and no time to fill it with another guest, or has trouble with his credit card, etc. Everyone has their own ways, but I usually just carried cash, traveled straight from the airport to Costambar, and after a quick stop to change money, to the hotel. Once in my room, the cash stayed in the room safe, and taken out for changing to pesos as needed during my stay.

If that's no big deal to you, yeah, you can pay change money at the hotel for all your expenses. Once you get there, you can walk around and decide for yourself about the security environment there.
As was mentioned in another post, carrying large amounts of cash anywhere in the DR is not a good idea, but hell, taken to an extreme, you'd never leave the house.
I'm not advocating walking the streets with hundreds of dollars. The short distance from the hotel to the store is about 400 yards. Going directly from point to point in the middle of the day is not like trolling the alleys of Sosua at night with big bills hanging out of your pocket. If you're the nervous type, take a motoconcho (motorbike taxi) from the hotel to the store for about 2 bucks.
First rate is for payments to the hotel which is less than 1% higher, another one is for cash exchange and it is true that you'll lose 4-5% in comparison to Jenny.

I once saw the posted exchange rate at the hotel, and it was 5% less than Jenny's. I confess that I didn't ask if payments to the hotel were any better. But considering that the pesos I bought were going to be spent there anyway, it didn't occur to me that there would be any other rate.
Gracias.
I made my first trip combined with Sosua (see report in that forum).
I got in on a Saturday about 2 pm and checked in. I found out the Bikini Show would be around 5. I didn't see but one or two girls at the time. I went to the room and took a nap, then I came out, girls had starting to arrive, some as it turned out where the second shift, not necessarily the contest girls. The show was pretty impressive, about 15 very attractive girls. Mostly in Bikinis, some giving table dances to the judges. It was fun to watch, maybe a little too long. After the show, it looked like most of the contestants didn't stay, but I did see a couple around the next day.
After the show, I selected Chanti. She was very beautiful, dark curly hair about 5'1" and petite. She wasn't very talkative going to the room, so I thought it might not be that great, but I was ready anyway. Even though it is posted that short time (up to two hours) is $1800 pesos, she tried to quote $2500. I showed the book price to her, told her I would give $2000. I would have giving more as a tip if you hadn't tried this. Anyway, the session started slow and uninspiring, but it got better. She had a firm and lean body, perky, B's and smooth skin, no sign of childbirth. I think she said she was 20. She gave BBBJ, as they all did, the several positions. She got hornier the longer we went. I had her lay on her side, which felt real tight, the stop. She actually stayed to snuggle and smiled some. Non English. Cleaned up, she showered, then I walked her down.
A few hours later, a selected Rachelle. (not sure about these names). She was short, darker complected, probably Haitian. About 5', maybe a little mommy tummy, but pleasant. Pretty well toned.
She did BBBJ, multiple positions, I finished with HJ. Food. Drink, then sleep.
The next day, Sunday. I had breakfast. Only one or two girls early. I took a late afternoon nap, then the second shift came in. Several that caught my eye, but there was one that I saw watch the contest the day I was hoping to make connections with. She had a asian looking face, a round butt and nice full breasts. Probably 34 'Cs. She was probably less that 5', very muscular, you could tell she did squats, and worked with weights. Her name was Jina, I think firm tummy, a little childbirth scarring. Firm and muscular legs. She had a scar near her ankle, looked like a shark bite or something, I didn't ask. She said she was about 27.
She was by far the best on this trip. Very pleasant, enjoyed the sex, not rushed, great BBBJ. Multiple positions, I finished in doggie. I would have been happy to have her the whole time. She also spoke fairly good English.
Later in the evening, I saw a cutie, Adile, I think. Very pretty, toned arms, dark curly hair to shoulders, about 5'2". Multiple positions, BBBJ, but I couldn't finish. She could go a little deeper on the BJ, but she was disappointed that she couldn't make me finish. I need a day or rest sometimes.
Overall, I wish I had stayed at Blackbeard's a few more days. I like Sosua, but most of these girls are an 8 or above. Usually around 8 girls during the days during my stay, about 15 or so in the evening, even on Sunday. I didn't really get around town much for restaurants, what I had at Blackbeard's was pretty good. There are some things about Sosua that I like outside of the girls, good restaurants, bars, etc. But I definitely liked it here and would want to spend a few more days. The beach is nice, except for all the trash the locals can't throw away. The bar stays open until 11 or 12, the music stops at 11 pm So it is quiet at night. The rooms are clean, mostly older white guys hanging around.
Posted prices $1800 short time. $3300 all night.
Massage was $1000 I think, pretty good.
Good report, George. Helpful to those contemplating a trip.

Hello,

See you.

Lonely.[/QUOTE]This was recently a topic of discussion between myself and Manizales911, and I guess we agreed to disagree. He is a smart guy and has been residing in the DR for a while, so I am loathe to contradict him. A couple of his associates have been victims of violent street crime, so he has some cause to urge caution.
That said, my experience in Costambar was similar to yours. I would not be so careless in other circumstances, locations, but I feel Costambar has some mitigating factors.
I confess that I have never changed money at Jenny's by night, as I was usually enjoying my evenings at BB, so things might be different, but I have never felt threatened.
Costambar is a low traffic area, predominantly frequented by European expats living nearby and the mongers at BB. The manned entry gate is not perfect, and one could easily circumvent it, but it is within view of Jenny's, the pharmacy, shops, etc. And in the low traffic environment, strange characters loitering in the area would be noticed by the gate and / or the business owners. It is in their interest to keep the area safe for customers to frequent their businesses. I have gone to some of the local shops, restaurants in the evening, with no problem. (It is also a good idea to go out with a local, as it is their world, and they can pick up on potential danger signals before we gringos might).
I would exercise prudence at all times, anyway in the DR, ie, limiting travel alone at night, being aware of my surroundings, never carrying anything I could not afford to lose, etc.

I am going to spend at least 4 days at BB's. Last time I just ate onsite. Are there any good restaurants nearby worth trying, or any worth getting a taxi for?
Thanks.

Thanks.[/QUOTE]Just around the corner from BB was an Italian place, Sole Mio. You would see it on the way to the hotel. Usually a lot of Europeans there. Depending on your taste, there were a couple of places serving locally caught fish and a variety of seafood. Not fancy, but not expensive, located in Maimon, a few miles past Costambar. On the main road from Puerto Plata. Not sure what cab fare would be, I usually drove. Just ask the cabbie for the "pescaderia" in Maimon.

Thanks.[/QUOTE]The Catamaran restaurant at the far end of the road on the beach, great place, a long walk or short moto ride from BB's. There is one other decent restaurant on the beach also but the name escapes me, I'm sure that Nico or Cliff (the managers at BB's) would know the name of it. A taxi to Pto Pta from BB's will cost you a small fortune, but if money doesn't matter go to the Village Cafe, the best restaurant in the city in my opinion.

Thanks for the info, I will check out some of these recommendations!
So at the advice of a member here, in contemplation of a first vist to BB, I sent and email to BB and they sent me a reply very quickly with a complete run down along with 2 pages of available girls with their photos. Yes some cuties are currently available.
Thanks for this advice.

Second trip in a couple of months, and Blackbeard's was the last stop before coming home. I spent four days here. (see Sosua and Cabarete reports).
Kind of the same as my last report. The first day, I saw Jina (China?) who I saw on the last trip. Under 5', looks Asian in the face, great body, works out several days a week. Sweet personality. All girls did BBBJ. She has a great personality, speaks pretty good English. She at least faked an O' contracting the muscles tight. I had two sessions with her, was hoping to have another, but she didn't return.
Another 2 sessions with Estrella. Long hair, slim body, light caramel skin. The body looks like Tony's sister in scarface, but the face is not the same. I think I had 3 sessions with her, including a hot tub BJ. No English, but good personality. The other chica on this trip was Vanessa. She is exotic looking, about 5' 8", full see's, pretty eyes, brownish skin. She gave one of the best BBBJ's ever, including deep throat. I had three sessions with her. She swallowed the evidence each time. All good this time, no upsale. The price for short time is $1800 as listed in the guide. I usually tipped at least $300.
I tried some of the restaurants suggestions, unfortunately, the Catamaran was under renovation / moving? I ate at Sole Mia, not many choices in walking distance at night. During the day, if you walked out of BB's toward the ocean, take a left and walk down the beach, there is a cluster of beach restaurants. I ate a great Burger at El Carey. The seafood I saw others eating looked good.
I ate at Estella del Mar one day on the beach. The shrimp dish, garlic sauce I think, were fresh and tasty.
Lot's of folks at BB's on return trips, some seem to come several times a year. If you are looking for stuff to do at night, you are out of luck unless you take a cab, drive, etc. I liked spreading the trip out into several locations as I did this time.
I think next time that I will pay for food and drinks at BB's as I go. Several mistakes on the bill that I caught, but four days of drinking with a couple of meals was less than $120 US. I usually come close to that, if not more, on a weekend at home.
I received the newsletter and saw about 3 bikini / miss universe contestants in particular that I would love to have a session with. I read that most of the contestant leave after the contest. Is that true? And are all of these contestants generally available at the resort?

But that does not mean they are all there every day or every hour of the day. My advice is not to get fixated on any particular chica. There are always others and sometimes betters.

If you set your mind on particular chica keep your eye on the room exit (the room where are all contestants wait for their turn), some chicas may leave if they are out after first or second round. You can talk to chica before she leaves and even if it is not her shift she will be happy to make some money unless she has some other plans.

Hello gentleman,
First timer going in Sept, be trying to read the board to get as much 411 as possible. Gave some give some tips on 1st time visit to BB. Been studying Spanish. Need info and tips on what to do in the evening time? Other bars or places to visit? At BB can you have a chic stay with you overnight? What suggested things to bring besides obvious $$?
Looking forward to making my 1st report visit in Sept.

From another perspective, if you have a particular girl in mind and you don't see her, speak with one of the mama-sans. If there is a picture of the girl posted somewhere, identify the one you want and ask if / when they will be at the hotel. If you wish, they can call the girl at home to see if she is available to come in. In such cases, allow time (maybe a date set for the next day at a specified time).

Looking forward to making my 1st report visit in Sept.[/QUOTE]Costambar is a pretty slow-paced, inconspicuous place (which is probably why BB has managed to survive this long, away from the prominent locations that attract attention of government and tourist crusaders). There are a few restaurants in easy walking distance from BB, but nothing wild. Personally, I was content to have dinner, drinks, maybe a cigar, and scope out and flirt with the night shift at BB when they show up. Lots of attractive, very available women, and I'm going to look elsewhere for entertainment? Not sure of your tastes, or what you would be looking for. Maybe some of the other posters (Charles Pooter? Manizales 911?) Can offer advice on local places.
Sosua is about 15 miles away, and has lots of bars, discos, nightlife. If you go, try to take some wingmen to share the cab fare.
No problem with overnight chicas. All the BB girls will stay the night. If you bring in a chica from elsewhere, she needs to produce a cedula or ID card, proving she is 18, and she cannot have been banned from the hotel. (The BB chicas will be pissed off, of course).
As for stuff to bring, maybe small gifts for the girls. Depending on you, and your budget, check the Dollar stores for little gifts. I often brought little tubes of skin lotion, coconut butter, etc. (If a girl takes several showers a day, skin lotion is welcome), Maybe some Dollar store shower caps, for the same reason. For you, bring a collapsible umbrella. Tropical downpours are common. (Pack it in you checked bag on the way out, as I had some POP security idiot confiscate mine once (metal). Idiot.
Thank you! Will do with packing gifts, traveling with party of 3 so drinking, smoking cigars is our thing. Looking forward to enjoy what you fellas experienced.

The reason guys are willing to pay this slight premium is that you have the convenience and security of everything being on campus. There is no need to set foot off the plantation. In practice, anyone who is physically fit will want to, and probably be best advised to, go for a walk along the beach, play a round of golf at the dog-eared golf-course if that is your thing, or have a drink or snack at one of the many nearby bars and restaurants. But basically you stay at Blackbeards to spend your time at Blackbeards, either because you do not have the confidence, street-smarts or Spanish to find your own chicas on the streets or in the clubs or discos, or maybe because you have done all that in the past and just want to relax and be able to summon up an attractive chica at two minutes notice. Or maybe your physical condition no longer permits too much exertion.
If you want to taste the real Dominican Republic in all its fascinating squalor and dysfunction, take the plunge and stay somewhere else next trip.
Blackbeards lay on events some evenings. A typical 24 hours would be fuck ST early in the evening, eat / drink, retire for the night with an all-nighter (TLN), sleep late next day. Go for a walk along the beach (I do not recommend swimming there), use the pool, or make the short trip into Puerto Plata city one afternoon for a change of scenery, then repeat cycle.
If physically fit you might like the 27 charcos at Damajagua (do not drink any alcohol before attempting this, drunks have died), a cheap outing unless you go with a rip-off tour.
There is the cable-car to the top of the mountain in Puerto Plata. Go early to avoid a queue and check the weather forecast first. Take a chica who has never done the ride as there is nothing to do up top except buy over-priced souvenirs or use the over-priced amenities.
If you can assemble three more guys to share a taxi (and the taxis at Costambar are notoriously expensive) you could visit Sosua but remember you will not see much action there until after 11pm, by which time your taxi fare will have gone through the roof). But a day-time/early evening trip will give you an idea of the place. Not worth paying much for because not much to see until late at night, though a walk along Sosua beach path is always pleasant.
Yes the girls will stay all night (with very rare exceptions) and most are delighted to do so, especially if you buy them dinner and breakfast.
How long are you staying for? You will not get bored if for a week or less. After that it depends on your mentality. My first ever trip to the DR (and to the tropics and to the New World) I stayed at Blackbeards for two weeks and could happily have stayed another two had funds permitted. But I interspersed fucking with reading and learning and precising Spanish. In fact the only things I regretted were a couple of outings. One to a local hot-spot (no longer existing) where my naivety got me conned and I had to suffer the humiliation of asking the Blackbeards management to get me off the hook, and another a boring and expensive taxi outing to Cabarete where the Blackbeards chica I paid to accompany me was weeping over her own love problems and was careful to steer me away from any chicas or places where I might encounter them (I afterwards realized).
When you really know your way around you can find better or cheaper chicas by staying elsewhere but forget that idea first trip and spend your money inside Blackbeards. Taking in outside chicas is usually a bad idea.
I'm staying for a week, your advice sounds great. Will for sure check out the beach. Looking forward to checking out the chicas at BB.

Just returned from a 5 night stay at Blackbeard's. Going to provide a lengthy and detailed review and will upload in sections due to length. I think some of what I have to add here will be different that Mr. Pooter's perspective to the most recent poster who had questions about going. Of course with any trip YMMV and it is going to be what you make of it and how much you can hang with the crowd there.
First a little background. I'm in my upper 30's and from South Florida. Have been to the DR before and most recently stayed in Cabarete where I stayed in a four story private residence home right on the beach with pool stocked with a dozen chicas for a six night stay. That stay also included all the drinks and food in my accommodations and had two Dominican women to cook and clean all day. It was honestly the best vacation I have ever had in my entire life. I have rated that trip a 10 out of 10 and that is what the bar was set at for this trip.
I was looking to fuck a lot and party a lot on this trip but also reduce costs and get out and find some non pros. I can say I accomplished my missions.
Pre- trip Planning:
I think this is important to cover especially for any first timers visiting Blackbeards. Some of this information I gathered from RTFF and others from past experience.
Get on the newsletter list of you aren't already. The newsletter comes out every two weeks and you get an idea of what is going on and which girls are working. Start to prepare yourself for what you are walking into.
Get your supplies and set a budget but always take extra in order not to sell yourself short. The last thing you want to do is go there and not have enough money to take advantage of opportunities that will present themselves to you during your stay. The supplies I took were two 24 packs of condoms and a bottle of the KY. The girls in the DR love the KY. I also took all my own soap, toothpaste, mouthwash and products. The soap you are provided at BB's is your basic soap but get something that smells good (like and axe body wash) that the girls will like.
Book a room that you are going to like. If you are a budget traveler you can go really basic and get in for $55 per night. If you are someone that likes to live large do yourself a favor and book the Penthouse. For $119 per night you can't go wrong. That was by far the best decision I made for myself in my trip planning.
Try to have a plan on what you want to do timing wise and stick to it. The girls do work two shifts and when it is time to go they want to leave if they don't have something lined up with you.
The staff at Blackbeards is also very responsive during the booking process and pre-arrival before you arrive at the resort. If you have any specific questions do not hesitate to ask. They will always respond in a timely fashion.
Day 1- Tuesday.
Trip gets off to a rocky start.
Intended to leave my home north of West Palm by 730 am to catch flight 935 from MIA to POP. Didn't leave home until 8:10 and then once I got to Miami airport finding off site parking this time was a challenge. The place I always park is closed up. I ended up at the Sheraton on Nw 21st after looking for about 45 minutes. The cost was $10 per day. They suggest you book in advance rather than just showing up like I did. Just showing up throws them out of their routine and will delay you.
Got to airport at about 11:00 for a 12:04 flight and had a bag I needed checked. I did the whole check in thing before I got to airport but now American makes you check in again to get bag tags, etc and their kiosks were not very customer friendly. After battling for 15 minutes and trying to get an American rep to assist I finally get checked in only to find out my checked luggage is too late to be accepted. Had to speak to a supervisor and I fessed up that me being late was entirely my fault. I didn't pass blame and the supervisor was kind enough to help me. If I had passed the buck on the blame I doubt he would have been so helpful.
Grabbed a drink once I got to the gate, then boarded and had an on time departure. Soon it was wheels up and as smooth of a flight as you can get for flying out of MIA in July. Wheels down at POP a few minutes before 2 pm and then it was time to do the song and dance with immigration officials.
One item of note is that when I land in POP I am always chomping at the bit and ready to go. I enjoy the band that they had to welcome you when you come through the concourse after arrival but the band was not there. I was a little sad.
Made it downstairs and it was a wall of people. Immigration took about an hour to get through and it was a painful hour. POP airport has that distinct smell (kind of like skunky weed) that puts you in the mindset that you are going to have a good time. Finally through immigration around 2:45 pm and out the door to where the drivers are and looked for the sign with my name. The driver was no where to be found. I thought maybe he is just late so waited about 15 minutes. After waiting and not seeing anyone show up I simply said "fuck this" and went to the taxi stand and agreed to cab ride. The quote was for $55 USD to Costambar. I didn't really have a choice and I was ready to go so I did it.
It is about a 30 minute drive from POP to Blackbeards through the city of Puerto Plata. Based on RTFF I asked my driver to stop at Jeny's so I could trade in some money. I initially traded in $1,000 and got back over 47,000 pesos. The driver waited for me outside and soon it was a two minute drive to Blackbeards.
Check into Blackbeards around 4 pm. Here is where I met Nico who is one of the managers. Good guy. Seemed surprised to see me since I guess the driver reported that I was a no show. He must have left before I cleared customs. I paid the room total which came to a little over 32,000 pesos for the five nights and then in order to keep with my tradition which is always a two for 1 when I arrive in the DR I had two ladies accompany me upstairs.
After the first two for 1 I headed downstairs and had a small bite to eat. As soon as I got down there I had two more like vultures on me before I could even order. Had to hold them off until after I ate and then another two for 1.
Once I completed that one I made the agreement with myself that I was going to stop the two for 1's unless it was an ideal situation of my choosing. If you keep doing them the girls are going to keep lining up to do it and exploit you. You don't want to be seen as an easy mark.
The rest of the night I hung out at Blackbeards downstairs bar. The Crows nest does not open on Tuesday and Wednesday and there isn't any organized activities to get the chicas socializing. Most sit in their cliques and only approach you with the intent of getting you upstairs to your room. You have to say no a lot at Blackbeards. I ended up doing a few more one on ones and then by 11 pm the place closes down and the chicas are leaving fast. The lesson is that if you want to do an overnight line it up early. Went to bed alone and got some sleep which wasn't a bad thing after traveling all day.
Day 2 to follow.
Day 2.
Rolled out of bed around 7 AM and felt really good.
Chilled in the living room area of the Penthouse and in the comfortable chair outside the door for a few hours surfing youtube and just relaxing. Wanted to exchange a little bit more money at Jeny's and walk around Costambar to get the lay of the land. Headed up and exchanged another $500 and got a rate of over 47 pesos per dollar again. Afterwards I popped into the massage place across the street from Jenys called Casa Maria. Nothing special about this place except that the masseuse does put in some effort. She will perform a one hour massage for 1100 pesos. No extras but a pretty good legit massage.
Afterwards decided on some lunch but also wanted to explore a bit. I didn't go far but went left out of BB's and then towards the beach and stopped at the blue food shack right across from Pizza Beach. The food here was really good as I had the arroz con pollo. The bad news is that while it tasted really good I would soon start feeling the effects of eating it.
After lunch I retired to my room and just hung out for a bit going down the youtube rabbit hole again. Around 430 I popped downstairs and met up with a friend I know that came over to visit from near Cofresi. Hung out with another guest that he knows and rolled up around the corner to Sole Mio for dinner. The food here was really good and I would eat here three nights of my trip. It was unfortunate I was not feeling well and could not enjoy the meal as much as I wanted.
Eventually started to feel better and ended up with three chicas at once in the jacuzzi area. Chilled with all three and got the triple BBBJ. Decided to take one of them upstairs for 1800 pesos and paid the other two 500 pesos each and was on my way. One of the girls who I did not take upstairs gave the best BBBJ I had on the trip. If that's your cup of tea I recommend you get one from Flor. She is an expert head doctor.
Day 3.
Woke up around 8 and was feeling good. My goal of the day was to hydrate myself and not have a repeat of the previous day. Started pounding the bottled waters. Blackbeards charges 55 pesos per bottle water which is a pretty good deal considering you are paying the "resort" markup on them.
At some point during the day I took a chica to the hot tub and dropped the kids off. That set me back another 1800 pesos but was well worth it considering I wasn't too energized and needed to just relax.
Still was mostly a really chill day. Popped up to sole mio for dinner again with another guest and dinner was great. Had the pasta pomodoro and shrimp cocktail. This totals somewhere around 650-700 pesos for the meal and is well worth it.
Night 3 was colors night and the theme was black. The crows nest bar actually opened and was energetic for a short time up until 11 and then it was cut off time again.
Found the girl that I enjoyed most during the visit on this day. Some Asian looking girl who said she was from Venezuala. I believe her name was Johana. I really enjoyed her. Total all star performance and unlike most Dominican girls she was totally smooth. Didn't keep her overnight but in hindsight I wish I had.
Ended up hanging out for a little and then called it a night prior to midnight since the place was dead again.
Day 4 and 5 to follow.
Day 4:
Just like my last trip in a new place this is when I finally got into my comfort zone and started to turn it up a few notches.
I was up and about by 9 or 10 am. I had no idea my day was going to be as long and as involved when I started but that's the way things go in the DR.
The resort started to fill up with many more guests checking in. A lot of the same chicas from earlier in the week but one new one in particular that had huge fake tits and a juicy ass that I had to sample so I did early on.
Most of the day was a blur between drinking and eating from about noon until 7 am the next day. I had an early lunch at Ricks Café around the corner (not bad pasta with bolognese), some camarones down at some beach bar, and an empanada from "el Carey" down on the beach around 3 pm, and then some dinner from sole mio around 7 pm. Sprinkled in another party hour somewhere in that time frame but couldn't tell you with whom because I can't remember her name.
Friday night was Mardi Gras night and all the chicas dressed up in lingerie. It was a fun night but again the crows nest bar and resort starts to empty out by 11:30. Tagged the Asian looking broad again and some girl that she brought for a happy hour. Both of them put in some effort and I loved the time with them. They rolled out around 12 midnight but I wasn't feeling like I was done yet.
The adrenaline of being in the DR was kicking in and I wanted to hunt and since it was only midnight I decided to visit the casino and Kviar nightclub at Costa Dorado. Rolled in close to 1 am and sat down and played some blackjack. There was a blackjack dealer there that caught my eye and she was looking back in a way that I knew she was in play. I alternated between playing cards in the casino and having drinks upstairs in Kviar hunting.
The Kviar Club was off the chain packed. As a gringo when you enter from the casino you do not pay any cover charge. Upon walking in there is a ton of staff in the black suit jackets and when they see a gringo you get escorted to the bar to buys drink with no wait. No propina required. Once I would buy my drink I just observed to see what in the club was in play.
There were clearly a few working girls in and around the bar area. Some other women were there with friends and some with their boyfriends. There was a nice tight Dominican girl that came in with her friend that I was I would have jumped on but I let her slide with some other dude. There was this bad looking ***** at the bar that acted like her shit didn't stink. She looked like a real high end type and I had my eye on her as well. One other chica who was with her man had some very touchy feely hands that made it known she was in play. After a drink or two up there and surveying the land and scouting out targets I decided to go to work.
Popped back downstairs and played some more blackjack and scored the whatsapp of the blackjack dealer. She made it known she was getting off after 4 and would hit me up. I went back up to the club and made some eye contact with some hotties, almost grabbed another Dominican chica but I decided to hold out on the blackjack dealer. Around 5 am I got that whatsapp and she asks what I'm doing. Told her I was at the club upstairs but she didn't want to come by because she didn't want to be seen by her boyfriend who works there. She also asked if she can bring her sister and of course I say yes. We agree to meet at some cabanas down by Cofresi and I arrange for my cabbie to take me there. She shows up at the same time I do and her sister is her twin. Ended up tagging both of them for 2500 pesos each. A really good time. Cab driver waited for me and took me back to BB's around 8 am where I then passed out for a few hours.
Day 5 to follow.
Day 5 and departure.
After one wild night I slept in until around noon.
Once I woke up I started working a chica I knew from my previous visit who would only be available until around 7 pm. She came by on the Motoconcho and my friend who lives nearby came over and we all went out to Maimon to grab some fish. Had an awesome grilled grouper with some plantains and rice that totally hit the spot. Paid for my friend and the chica and the total was around 1400 pesos. It was a great meal for all and it was a fair and reasonable cost.
After lunch went back to BB's. This was my first time bringing an off site chica back and I was doing it in the afternoon. No issues with management or the chicas. I was discrete about it and did not flaunt her off in front of the girls. Just use common sense if you are bringing someone back while the girls are working. Turned her out, a few hour nap, and then sent her packing around 630.
Was hungry and opted for a final night of sole mio food. Rolled downstairs around 9 and the party was getting into full swing. Crows Nest opened up and it was Miss Universe night. A good show overall. Ended up doing a two for 1 afterwards with one that wouldn't leave me alone. This was a mistake on my part. It was disappointing because the primary one that was asking me I just wasn't into and for some reason I just did it. This caused me to miss out on the one I really wanted and I did not see her again.
After an unsatisfying two for 1 I still needed the thrill of the hunt so I elected to head back out again. I decided to try to other casino down near Cofresi. Rolled in around 1 and the place is dead. There is one other person playing blackjack. I was also there to visit the Terraza bar outside that I heard would be busy. Decided to play a sleeve or two worth of hands and saw one of the waitresses there that looked really good. After playing a few hands it was off to the Terraza bar which wasn't the atmosphere I was looking for. I'm sure there were some pros there but everyone was just sitting at tables and I needed something more lively. Got back in the cab without even having a drink there and headed back to Kviar Club & Casino at Dorada.
Arrived at Kviar around 2 and went into casino first to grab a few free drinks and play some cards. Saw the blackjack dealer from the night before and some new talent dealing that was interesting and appeared to be for the taking. Went upstairs to the club to scout out the talent again. Saw one of the blackbeards chicks there and low and behold there was that bad ***** from last night looking good again and acting stuck up. Watched two gringos go up to her and watched her shoot them down just like the night before. I was determined to take a shot at her tonight but not before scouting out the rest of the talent.
Made my rounds and saw another girl from last night that was an obvious pro. Danced a little with her but there was just too much plastic. Picked up the whatsapp for later just in case the night ended up being a disaster. Had a few others come by and made it known that they were available but I knew which one I was going after. Her friend started making the moves on me and had a fantastic ass but the face was a little busted. Told the friend I would give her 500 pesos to broker the deal with her friend. They each asked for a drink and I obliged and ordered up a hookah as well. This gave us some time to flirt and come to an agreement for a 2500 pesos deal.
We leave the club and I expect this chick to get in my cab but she says she has a car there. She ends up following us to Blackbeards and she spent the night. Never met a Dominicana that had her own ride especially a nice one by both American and Dominican standards. End up chatting the girl up back at BB's and she spoke great English. Said she bartender for some time at a place in Miami Beach before she was deported about a year ago. To pull a hot bartender in Miami you are probably paying a steep price in USD but in the DR that same girl can be had for under $100 USD. Got to love the island.
This chick stayed with me until around 11 am and I turned her out once more before sending her on her way. Got the Whatsapp for future visits to the island and I will be sure to hit her up. She is going to go in my rotation.
Settled up around noon with staff for my bar bill which after 5 days amounted to less than $200. I felt like I drank a lot and ate a lot so this was a decent bargain as far as I was concerned. Partied with one last chica and left her my supply of condoms, lube, soaps, mouthwash, etc.
Off to the airport a few minutes after 1 and a reasonably smooth flight back to MIA with wheels down almost 30 minutes early at 445. Through immigration and at my car by 6 pm which is great by MIA standards.

Day 5 to follow.[/QUOTE]Damn her and her twin sister, this is something I would love to experience.
TTM.
After breaking up a longtime Colombian paisa GF, I decided to book a trip to the reknown BB. I RTF and am making preparations based on the great advice. I understand the ST and TLN price. While I plan to try out the selection, if I find someone I would like to hangout with me in the day, is the price the same, or if different, what? Not planning to wife up the whole time, but may want a chica to hang with at the beach, go out in the area, other stuff.
Final recap & suggestions.
Overall this was really a great trip. My overall rating is a 9/10. In fact I am already making my arrangements to go back again in the next few months. BB's will probably be a place I visit at least once a year going forward.
As I mentioned before the Penthouse is the best room on property. Great space and location within the resort.
The things I really liked about the place overall is that you have the point and click availability of women much like you have in Sosua while at BB's except there is some level of quality control. The place is clean, staff is great, and the community of Costambar is fairly pleasant. The complimentary rides that local taxi's provide to the casino also get you out to prime hunting grounds at night if you elect to do that. Maimon is a great little town and there is good food all through out Costambar.
The things I didn't like (and I'm nitpicking) were the "viper pit" type atmosphere that exists. Sometimes you just want to leave you room and hang out at the pool or bar without being bothered. You tend to have to say "no" a lot. I don't know any way to solve this other than having a designated area where guests can go and chicas can't enter. Or maybe the guest has something that indicates to the girl he is not looking. I'm not sure if there is even a solution to this.
I didn't like the early closing times. 11 pm is simply too early in my opinion. I am really happy I discovered the casino and nightclub for late night.
Another item that I would like to see would be a waxing service being brought in for the girls. Charge each guest $10 at check in to fund it. I know it is Dominican culture and perfectly normal that they don't do a full wax above their knees but I think if it was being provided to them they would take advantage of it. There were a few of the girls that were super smooth and I really preferred them. I turned some girls down because they were not smooth enough.
Better wireless through out the property would also be a nice touch.
My total nut on this trip was 3 k. This includes airfare (around $800 are / T from MIA to POP) Lodging ($702) airport parking and taxi services (around $200 for entire trip) which meant I spent a grand total of about $1300 going hard on the island. That money was spent solely on women, drinks, food, and partying. I could probably cut my airline costs by flying to STI but I would sacrifice time and increase taxi costs. The room type I had I really enjoyed and was worth the cost. The one area where I can see getting some additional savings is my on the ground costs but we are splitting hairs on this. If you didn't care about travel times and room types this same trip at BB's with the same experiences I had could be done for.
I have covered in as much detail my experience and my thoughts. For any of you that are going YMMV but this is a good place overall and I'm convinced it has something for everyone.
Until my next trip.

Until my next trip.[/QUOTE]Kudos on the report! Its been a good while since someone took the time to write up a trip report (s) like this. The "viper pit" environment you describe is a new one. It used to be that the girls did not come on so aggressively, you had to give them a look to bring them over to you. I suggest you provide your feedback to the management (if you haven't already). Can be done via email. They are usually willing to act on guest feedback.

The solution is really very simple. The situation used to be that the girls did not approach the guests; the guests had to make the first move. It seems they have gotten away from that. Its a simple matter to make everyone at the hotel aware of the "new" rule, and see that it is enforced.

I've been going to Blackbeard's for five years, and the girls have always done this. It does not bother me at all. I like talking to the chicas, and it's really easy to say, "No gracias, baby" when you just want to relax.
And I think it's good for first timers. It helps them get into the flow of what Blackbeard's is all about.
Honestly, I'd hate to see this change. It's part of the fun.

I understand that the girls are there to make money and some of the guys will always need a little push to part with some of their pesos. I'm certainly OK with the girls trying to make some money and approaching the guests. I enjoyed being approached on many occasions. The occasions I didn't enjoy are where I told a girl no for a variety of reasons for days and I'm still getting hounded by her.
It comes down to there has to be a happy balance and I'm not sure there is a solution to it because each guest is different.
[QUOTE=BongJovi;2070286]It comes down to there has to be a happy balance and I'm not sure there is a solution to it because each guest is different.[/QUOTE]Agreed. And for what it's worth, I did have a trip one year where there were only a few guests and the girls were obviously hurting for pesos. They pressed me pretty good. I mostly didn't mind, but I did resort to headphones a few times and going to the beach for a quiet lunch. But I'd still want to keep the playful interaction with the chicas rather than go to a more sterile environment.

If you don't want to be bothered and you want to select the girls yourselves, just tell the mamasans your wishes (Kristel or Rosa). They will take care of it! Anything we've wanted, Rosa has always taken care of it. We always give her a tip or buy her dinner during our stay and she has always been super responsive to us. She will let the girls know your preference and it will taken care of it. She sits down with the girls every shift at that table on the right when you're walking to the rooms.
Personally, I enjoy when they approach. But it can get a little overwhelming when it's slow, especially if they ask you to buy them a drink after you tell them that you're not interested at that very moment.
[QUOTE=BongJovi;2070286]It comes down to there has to be a happy balance and I'm not sure there is a solution to it because each guest is different.[/QUOTE]Have not been there since 07, and they just sat around waiting for you to approach them, which made me feel as a newbie a little awkward due to limited Spanish. I got with a Haitian (or darker skin DR chica) that was totally GFE. With my broken Spanish managed to get from her how she has a harder life because of her skin tone. But yes, would have been a little easier with a mild approaches from the ladies.
I will be at Blackbeards next week. I really like long hikes in beautiful nature. Any suggestions for cool hiking areas nearby? Anyone know any chicas or other guides that may be into hiking or outside blackbeards exploration adventure?
Is 3 nights enough there? With the plan to go to another place? For a couple of nights? (open to suggestions) Or is 5 nights at blackbeards going to offer not only enough chicas (2-3 sessions a day for me is perfect), but also enough other stuff to see in the DR outside the property.
Ideally, I will pull a girl in the morning. Then do something cool and fun (beach, hikes, explore different towns etc) during the day, then pull another girl for after dinner, and if she and I click, then keep her all night.
And I really hope we have some nice little spinners over there. I love my Medellin Flaquitas! And want to spice it up with some variety: skinny, young Dominican chicks for a week!
I will offer a detailed report after returning.
Thanks team!

Two or three times over the eleven years I have been visiting or resident here I have agreed with a chica to go for a walk. They always drop out after a quarter-mile which is an immense walk for them.
Haitianas are good at walking but when they have hooked a gringo for a day they expect to be treated better than that.
I understand there are some hiking trails on the slopes of Mount Isabella, but everyone will advise you not to walk alone for security reasons.
I suggest you ask the question immediately in the North Coast section of DR1.
But if you do the Damajagua trail that should satisfy your urge to hike.

Thanks team![/QUOTE]In the Puerto Plata area, not likely. Possibly ask through BB if the all inclusives still have horseback tours in the area. (About 10 years ago, I and a chica took such a tour through a place called Field of Dreams when it was run by a Canadian, 'Dominican Billy' but he is gone now).
You might consider a walk along the seaside promenade, the Malecon, in Puerto Plata. At the far west end is a reconstructed Spanish fortification, with some items on display. For a dollar or two, a local there will give you a tour. Columbus gave Puerto Plata its name. Possibly for a later trip, a few hours by car to the west is Puerto Isabella, which was the first (failed) Spanish colony, started in 1493. It has the foundations of Columbus' only private house / residence in the New World. After the colony failed, he took the viceroy position at Santo Domingo, and lived in an official residence.
You might also consider a walk along the beach, starting in Costambar, just outside the BB complex. Or ask about the cable car rides available. Taking a chica you like is adviseable, as a guide, and to steer you clear of any bad situations. Not much in the way of "nature walks" in the POP area.
Wouldn't recommend a gringo walking alone in too many areas at night.
(Depends on you and your taste) but 5 nights at BB is about right. A couple of nights in Sosua, just to check it out is not a bad idea, for future reference.

Thanks team![/QUOTE]You can book a tour at the front desk at BB. I did the 7 water falls a few years ago & you need to be in good shape, it's a tough climb going up (for me anyways) LOL.

Sorry this got long: but I feel a responsibility to this community to provide a full and detailed report since many of you helped me pan my trip and offered your time, knowledge and experience to help me have a solid trip. Thank you to those who helped me- I hope this at least entertains you and at most helps you in some way:
Landed in Santo Domingo and was picked up by a taxi driving friend of a friend that I had set up. He took me to Zona Colonial to a hotel he suggested. 50 bucks-just a 1 minute walk from Pizzarella right in the heart of the Colonial Zone.
Walked around a bit, got some pizza, got approached by a couple of skinny but dirty looking pseudo crack working girls who were working the streets. One was kinda hot-but just felt like a walking STD so I ignored her approach as best I could. Later that night, I walked to Oases strip club--probably not a good idea to walk there alone at night- but I move very fast and am on my game- but I would not suggest walking alone--there are definitely some sketch balls on the streets and its not very safe. At 930 PM the place was mostly dead. One fairly hot lady came out-tall, blonde, but not really my type: though I am sure many would have gone for it. I bailed out within a few minutes of being there and luckily a taxi drove by right as I walked out, so I took the taxi back to the hotel. I wasn't hoping for any action as I was heading to Barba Negra the next day so I wanted to save my energy.
Next morning, taxi to Metro bus-got there at 8, bus left at 9. Once I got my ticket, I walked a few blocks down the street looking for food. Even with my backpack on I felt safe walking through this area during the day. Ended up getting some donuts at Krispy Kreme LOL. There was literally nothing else edible in the area at 8 am.
Onto the bus: very comfortable, smooth and easy. There was a gorgeous local chick with her 3 year old-I probably should have tried to work it with her- she was by far the best looking girl I saw in the the. Are. A true 10-but, with her baby in her arms-it didn't seem appropriate for me to sit next to her just to try and fuck her- though, in hindsight.
Arrived in Puerto Plata 12:20. Taxi guy told me there was a place to eat just a block away around the corner-so I walked over there, had a burrito and then the same taxi guy came by and asked if I wanted a ride. So, off to Barba Negra (BlackBeards) we go.
I arrive at 2 ish (not exactly sure). My room wasn't ready yet-but soon. I sit down on the couch by the reception, and within 10 seconds a very very very cute, sexy (I wish I remembered her name) young petite little thing approaches me-this place: I'm getting offers to fuck and I haven't even made it to my room yet! Happy days are here again.
After telling myself: don't take the first one you see. I end up taking the 1st one I saw! Typical horny gringo! I tell the little flaquita to meet me in my room in 15 minutes. 10 minutes later she knocks. I tell her to give me a few minutes. She returns 5 minutes later.
We shower and put on some music and get to it: Absolutely fantastic BBBJCIM. Very light pecking / closed mouth kissing, a little massage. I tell her: I don't want to fuck her yet-she seems confused, so I say, I just want her mouth on my dick.
She blows me while in '69' position: great view. But I generally don't eat overused hooker pussy. -that was tough to stick by, because her pussy looked fantastic and smelled clean. But, sorry, I don't really know how clean she is. But, she didn't smell at all, and I was tempted--instead I just held her legs tight while she blew me. I cum in her mouth: and she keeps sucking--every last drop! Nice! Perfect way to start the trip. I am a huge believer in the post cum keep going don't stop me too quick vibe. I hate it when a girl stops all the motions just as soon as I start releasing, ya know? And this girl sucked me off good-and for a while post cum. She then looks at me, smiles, and runs to the bathroom to spit and wash out her mouth and shower. I also quick rinse / wash and shower, hand her 2 k and say Thanks. She is happy, and impressed with my 'mucho mucho leche-esta loco' she tells me. She asks if I want her to just stay in my room with me for a while-I decline and tell her I am hungry (I wasn't- but needed a few minutes to just adjust to being there).
I then walk over to check out the scene and the other chicas. It is a non stop barrage of offers for time / sex / leche etc. I take a walk over to the beach, then head back for some food and dinner.
I must say: the food was way way better than I imagined it was going to be. I am a picky veggie guy, and they had fantastic plantains, rice and beans, salads a few decent pasta dishes, juices, etc. For a few days & nights: perfect. For a week: maybe not so much. But still, pretty quick, solid service, very tasty, nice portion sizes and fair prices: so no complaints at all--especially with the convenience of it all!
Another thing I must say: The room I had was great! It was 60 bucks a night, had a king size bed, couch, TV, table and some decent size and space. No complaints at all except the shower never really got hot: luke warm or cold was all I ever had-mostly lukewarm. Also: bring your own soaps, shampoo / conditioner as they are not provided--well small soaps are, but I used my own, and left those for the chicas. My room was near the upstairs bar. Noise was shut down there by 11 pm so that was fine. I also brought my own bluetooth speakers to play tunes off my Mac which I had with me: That was a great move- chicas come to the room, pick their favorite tunes off of youtube, crank up the volume, and we can have a party. And drown out the crappy music by the pool or in the crow's nest bar.
Hanging out by the pool area post dinner, I ask a pretty girl to show me where the jacuzzi was. We check it out- all I wanted in that moment was to know where it was--when I didn't hop in with her--she threw major attitude and negative ninny vibes my way and made a rude comment as her and some of her clique talked some shit about me when we returned to the bar area Surprise for them: this gringo speaks and understands Spanish- so, when I retorted with a witty snide comment in Spanish that let them all be put on notice that I am not just some random whitey out of his element-and I knew what they were saying-they were fairly surprised!
I told her she just failed my test: if only she had just been nice and showed me around. She'd be getting paid right now. She had one friend sitting there who wasn't making fun of me or giving me shit for making the girl suffer by walking all the way to the jacuzzi just to show me where it was (oh the horror!) -you would have thought I raped one of their kids they way this small band of nitwit hookers started acting toward me when I returned from jacuzzi with girl right away--apparently I violated their ethical principles by asking someone where the jacuzzi was without actually wanting to pay someone to go in with me! (idiots!) Anyway, I looked at the one quiet girl, who wasn't as hot as the one I walked with, but still decent, and said, 'listo por mi?' she nods, we leave. Her name is Amber.
Again, like the 1st girl, I didn't feel like fucking her-I hate rubbers- and I like BBBJs and lots of attention on my balls. So, we do our thing. She looked good naked, though, most of these girls had baby birth battle scars or a little post baby tit sag or a see-section scar. Honestly, not one 10-though an attitude problem I met was a 9 (more on that soon) There were a few cute and def. Some 7-8's in the whole lot. Amber didn't let me cum in her mouth, but she did some nice ball sucking work and was very compliant with my wishes. I had fun and it felt good to drop 2 loads my first evening there. I would recommend amber's blow job-though, she could do a better job of helping clean up my mess or getting it on her instead of me- LOL! Anyway, she was at my room for almost 2 hours. And her ball sucking was on point. I gave her 2200 (she was there way more than an hour. Closer to 2) and told her to tell her hot friend to lose the attitude and just be nice and she'll get paid too! Again, no real kissing with this one.
*note about kissing: after first girl would not deep French kiss me I was a little frustrated, until I saw her walk away with another dude about 15 minutes after I came in her mouth. I was then very thankful she wouldn't let me stick my tongue in her mouth! I don't need other dudes cum in my mouth: so that was a good reminder: in a place like this--less is more!
Next day: I hit the waterfalls in the morning and hiked all of them. It was fun-a bit too touristy / crowded, not really that difficult. You jump down / over a few, slide down a couple. Its pretty cool. Back to Blackbeards for lunch: tostones, rice and beans. Girls constantly approaching seemingly unaware of how I just said no to 3 people right in front of you--and then you ask again and again. The easy solution should be: if a guy is sitting in the restaurant serving area: the bigger dining tables -there are 6 of them, he should be left alone. Anywhere else on the property is fair game.
Post late lunch head back to the room for a nap. I get up at 530, shower, check the internet, and head downstairs to see the new talent that arrives everyday at 6 pm (girls come 2 times a day: 10 am and 6 pm so you can plan a strategy, schedule for activities and food etc based on knowing when chicks will be there, fresh and ready). Jacuzzi attitude chick from the night before comes in 2 minutes after I go downstairs. And gentlemen, she was looking really really fine! 9 face, 7 body. Beautiful face. Nice eyes and smile. I know I want her, but am not quite ready to go yet.
More girls arrive. I allow them to make their offers and pass me by one by one. One group of 4 tries to convince me to take all of them to the jacuzzi-4 on 1 doing anything I want. I decline, esp since 2 were really ugly.
Okay- next truth: maybe its because I spend a lot of time in Medellin and in California -but, overall, most of the girls I saw in my time at BlackBeards: not hot at all! Several just ugly, lots of fat ones (other people may like that), most have post baby bodies. A huge percent of them have braces. Only a couple of girls that made me say 'WOW-that chick is really hot!' most were 6's. A couple of 8's. There were 5 chicas I paid to get me off--one of them 2 different nights--there were probably about 20 chicas each day and night: and the other 15 --no thanks, even for free!
The one day shift chica who let me cum in her mouth was prob the best looking overall top to bottom imo--though she certainly has some mileage on that young body of hers: because she looks better than the rest, everyone takes her--so, she has a high occupancy rate! LOL.
There was one absolutely stunning and gorgeous woman who was only there my last night. We chatted a bit, but what a shitty attitude she had! I asked her about leche in su boca--and she gets all crazy about how rude I am and how I am not her husband and this is why she hates this job but needs money for her kid. I explain that people like me want someone who it at least eems likes what she is doing. And that us mongers are not just jerks. She rips the customers, rips blackbeards, and lost my business! She looked very European / Italian to me: if she had a good vibe and nice attitude I would have paid for TLN with her. But, instead, she got nothing from me. I didn't bother with her name.
Anyway, after some time passes, I walk by jacuzzi attitude girl from the night before -I was on my way to the bathroom by the billiards table--and she says to me: bay, are you ready for me yet? I like your eyes--muy guapo. I reply: depends, are you going to be nice to me tonight? If I take, you have some making up to do. So think about it. When I open the bathroom door she is leaning on the pool table and says: lets go, I want to make you happy.
Who am I to hold a grudge? And she was the best looking I saw there that night. So off we go.
Honestly: fantastic! She says her name is Lisbeth, but many call her Shanti. She looked better naked than dressed. Fabulous, soft, fluffy and nicely sized tits. That face. Beautiful. Nice legs and pretty eyes. We put on some tunes, dance a little together, light kissing: again no tongue, holding rubbing. Clothes come off: and again, I just don't feel like fucking her. I think the overused hooker pussy sex-block was happening for me, and instead I was more into a 'who sucks my dick the best' contest mode. So, I sit on the couch, she gets a pillow onto the floor and get to work with her mouth. Great eye contact. Absolutely perfect ball sucking. I mean my nuts were in heaven! Dammmmmm. That was some talent she had! She sits on the little coffee table in front of the couch and finishes me with her mouth and hands-I cum all over the place--a huge load especially for the 3rd one in 28 hours (I don't do Viagra or any other enhancers, no lecithin -or any other help. And I did have my vape pen with me so I was vaping a lot of weed all day and night which can slow me up a bit when it comes to cumming) --her ball sucking and general blow job skills and her pretty face and perfect tits really got me horny and excited. I probably should have asked her to stay the night. Anyway, while she cleans up, I grab the 2 k (its 1800 but I always gave at least 2 k) and let her know I was pleased.
Back downstairs, I get some ice cream and while eating I see one chica I had not noticed before--she kinda looked more exotic, almost a little Indian (Hindu Indian, not eating possom and helping pilgrims Indian). We start chatting.
Time out: here's the deal.
The place was full. No empty rooms. A nice ethnic mix: a couple of Asian / Chinese looking skinny nerdy dudes with glasses and a seeming lack of social skills, they were a bit awkward and def. Newbies to this scene, a few black guys, 6-7 really big fat old guys-I mean like sumo fat-just unhealthy and no way these young chicks are attracted to that- 2-3 skinny old white guys--one guy who was very sociable with everyone, another fairly young Hispanic looking guy who was always loud, drinking a lot--and seemed to have been there a few times before-- and me: mid 30's, very fit, white, clean-and honestly, a good looking normal white guy who doesn't actually have to pay, but, heck, I like to make my life easy-and I can! (just keeping it real).
I felt bad for these girls when I saw who was paying them. Some of these men really seemed unhealthy, smoking a lot of cigs, drinking a lot and again, a couple of them just morbidly obese--most of the people there were in their 60's. There were a few closer to my age. Though: 3 of the 5-6 black dudes that were there were fairly young, very fit, and could probably go out and pick 'them up without paying if they wanted to.
Each night, many of the girls seemed not to have any work at all. Some were looking depressed and annoyed at the lack of opportunity presenting itself to them. More than one commented to me that the girls were talking about how they liked me, I have nice eyes--I got a good report from the 1st girls I took etc. (could be a ploy to get me to let my guard down and spend more-but it seemed honest and accurate--and, I am nice to the chicas and treat them well plus, my room is all set up with music, candles, fruit, chocolate and good vibes).
Okay, back to the Indian looking chick. She says they call her 'Shorty' she was very pretty. Certainly hot enough to pay for. We go to the room. I put on some music I like and she starts grinding on me and dancing with me-very sensual. Again, minimal kissing, no tongue-great eye contact and she really knew how to move and turn me on--I felt like I was in the VIP room of the top strip club in the world getting as good of a lap dance / striptease as I could have hoped. I decided I would fuck her. So, she blows me, I put a condom on my fingers and play with her pussy--at 1st she is not too open to my fingers inside of her--but, I grab the lube I brought with me (another suggestion: bring a good bottle of sex lube with you to use on her and on you--leave what's left with your last chica for a tip) grease her up and start playing gently--turning her on. My fingers inside lead to her pushing me down on my back, and her putting a rubber on my dick, getting on top and slowly, deeply, fucking me. Great visual! She also looked better naked than dressed! As this was my 4th leche in 2 days and 2nd in 3 hours.I wasn't cumming very quickly. We fucked for a while--and I def. Made her cum a few times. I could feel her pussy getting tight, I could see she wasn't faking--and I know I am pretty talented! She was sweating- (in spite of the very well working A / see in the room) and she was getting really into it. I love when they cum 1st (she told me she came 3 times). We did cowgirl, reverse cowgirl, doggie and missionary. I can tell she is ready for me to cum so I pull out-she pulls the condom off-and starts sucking again-pushing me onto my back--right as I am about to cum, she takes me out of her mouth and aims me at her tits--and she jerks me to completion--and earned some extra pints for not stopping when I start cumming. Again, that's a very important thing for me. She drains every last drop-not letting go at all until I am completely and totally emptied out--then tells me to wait, returning a few seconds later with a lukewarm hand towel which she cleans me up with-again, its the little things when it comes to this service. By this point its just about 11-so she leaves (I gave her 2 k plus a really nice scented candle I had brought with me as a potential gift). She was happy and seemed to appreciate the extra gift. She told me she would be back tomorrow.
--most of these girls are there several nights (or days) a week. If you work day shift, you don't work night shift. A few different ones rotate through each night, but, generally, its the same girls in the rotation and you may find a couple you haven't seen before each night, most are the same again and again--saying no to them several times a day or night.
Sleep, wake up, breakfast: pancakes and French toast: I got both-and it was still only like 10 bucks!
I took a long walk, then returned back and the reception guy got me a taxi to go to the cable car.
Everyone who goes to Blackbeards should def. Go up the cable car in Puerta Plata. Its the only cable car in the Caribbean, the views are fantastic, its cheap, and on top there are some cool things to walk around and check out: you can even hike down--it takes 2-3 hours- if you want--though you should get a guide for that--cable car: totally 100% worth it!
Back from the cable car, shower, eat, short nap, downstairs:
I decide to wait until the night shift and take 'shorty' for another round of fun. I go down to find her at 6 ish and that's when I met the previously mentioned attitude problem with the most gorgeous face there--what a conundrum! Go for the even hotter / sexier euro looking chick or with the not quite as hot, but still pretty damn sexy India looking girl who gave great service:
I opt to walk over to the Italian place around the corner-hottie euor chick asks to join me, I decline- abd she throws major ***** attitude--which only re-affirms my decision to not take her to dinner.
I come back, and euro girl is like, I bet you wish you took me-I said, lets talk: so that's when we get into the conversation about how she hates us mongers and her job and her life--but knows she is hot and needs money for her kid. Her vibe turns me off more than her looks turn me on--as I have that thought, there's the 'shorty' girl pulling up to the next table with her dinner. I tell her to take her time, and whenever she is ready-I will be ready for her.
I go sit by myself for a few--then I see euro girl picking up some other dude-a younger black man with a Mohawk. Good luck with that attitude brotha man!
Shorty indicates she is ready, so I tell her to meet me in my room in 5 minutes.
Knock on the door--and away we go!
She was dressed sexy as fuck! Black maid costume style lingerie. She made some effort to look hot and it paid off. I asked to fuck her in the ass. And my offer was declined. I asked to cum in her mouth--and was told no. But, she did do a great job. Stayed with me from 9 until 11, made me cum really hard with a long session that stated off with her grinding and dancing on me how I like, followed by her sucking and jerking me and playing with my balls for a very very very long time. I honestly think I got a solid 45 minutes of just getting my balls sucked on good--and I mean good! I gave her 2 k plus the rest of my lube and 8 condoms from the box of 12 I brought with me. Her service and attention to me was on point!
She leaves. I go downstairs, all the girls are leaving. One nice, hot and skinny chick who I hadn't previously noticed is at the front desk fixing to leave--I walk by, she grabs me, puts her hand down inside my pants, and says something along the lines of let me wake you up and then put you to sleep tonight. Sounded kinda sexy, but I was empty and done and declined-hindsight: for 3300 I should have just taken her up for the night and made her work hard to get me off again--but, since I hadn't been with her yet, I didn't want to commit to all night.
Next morning, easy check out, taxi to bus to Santo Domingo, taxi to zona colonial: back to my not so impressive 50 dollar a night, but quiet, clean, and seemingly safe no frills old hotel in zona colonial.
I was supposed to stay in the the. Are. Through the weekend, but IRMA. So, I had changed my flight and left Wednesday (after a 9 hour pawa Dominican maintenance problem delay that left us wondering if we were going to get out at all).
Later that night, walked over to Executive or ejecutiva or something?? A karaoke bar on the main drag in zona colonial-with some hot Venezuelans you can take out--it was dead at 10, some lady there told me to come by at 12 and there would be some talent there-but I had to be at the airport at 730 so, I passed. Hit on again, by the same street working girl from the other day--and by another one who also looked decent--but no way she was clean-so, back to the room solo.
Post script: because of my flight delays, I got stuck overnight in Curacao. Rented a car and went to Campo. Walked around from 1030 until 1230 seeing nothing at all but ugly--I mean UGLY chicks! Just sad! Seriously, a horny guy in a *****house for 2 hours and not remotely fuckable girl in sight. Until. Right as I am about to give up, I see her: a very petite spinner, late 20's, maybe early 30's. 8 face, 10 body-if you like tight small petite spinner Colombians. I do! Walks by me--eye contact, small talk-and off to the room: 100 Dutch Guilders for the hour-plus 20 US for BBBJ-she wanted another 20 for me to cum in her mouth-I said, just pull it out at the last second and wherever it goes isn't worth 20 more bucks! Honestly: the single best blowjob I could have imagined. She blew away the Blackbeards girls (no pun intended). Just wow! A total 10. The best most intense and strongest ball sucking I ever had. Her mouth was so tight on my shaft just incredible--like tight virgin pussy-really tight. Mind blowing dick sucking. This girl has a special talent! After some of her BJ time, she put a condom on and starts fucking me--we do a few positions and this skinny little thing looked damn good! She would have been a 10 if she didn't have a tiny bit of boob deflation from having a kid.
I am tired, just dropped 5 loads in the previous couple of days and had a crazy long day at the airport--I tell her- I can't cum in a condom-so, she pulls me out, takes off the rubber, wets a paper towel and cleans me off, then resumes her amazing blow job--I pre-cum a little-and she gives me a look and says something like no leche en mi boca-but she keeps sucking-as I start to cum, she pulls me out and I shoot a massive load all over the place-in her hair, on my chest-it was intense! She was amazed, and annoyed it got on her-oh well. Thanks lady! At this point its 2+am, so I go back to the car, pass out in the seat in front of Campo- and am back at the airport for my flight to Aruba at 530 am.
SO, since some of you helped me plan some logistics and shared your helpful info with me-I told you I would give you a real report. Sorry I didn't get the Campo girls room number: but she is literally the ONLY spinner / petite / Colombian / decent looking fairly young enough chick on the property right now. Sad, but true. I also wish I would have kept better track of names of the Blackbeards girls. One of them that I was with asked me for whatsapp and has no messaged me a couple of times and found me on facebook--she seemed to have liked me ad wants to hang again--I could be open to that.
One of the benefits of being an expat and living outside of America is its normal for me to have random facebook friends from all over the world so nobody questions why I have several Medellin girls and a couple of Dominicans and Venezuela chicas as facebook friends--half or more of the 550 or so facebook friends I have are not from the US and I have men and women friends from all over the Caribbean and south America so that helps me stay just a little incognito.
Good job sir. Thanks for the report. That was well worth reading. I will be there in November to try to repeat your wonderful journey.
Hey,
I plan on going next month or November to BB for the first time and wanted to know any tips or advice for my first time? I'm going by myself I don't really plan on going too far from BB. What would be a good amount of money to bring if I want to stay local.
[QUOTE=JahLike;2086939]What would be a good amount of money to bring if I want to stay local.[/QUOTE]Well, you will know your room cost and cost of taxi to and from airport before your trip.
500 to 1000 pesos a day will cover your food, depending on how much you eat.
But your main costs, other than your room, will be chicas and alcohol, and we cannot help you there because we do not know your appetites.
Some guys are happy with one ST (short-time) per 24 hours (1800 pesos).
Others "need" two ST and one TLN (todo la noche. All-night) per 24 hours (6600 pesos).
How much and what you drink will affect your outlay a lot. Local drinks (beer, Cuba libre) are around 125 pesos a time. Imported drinks are expensive.
Some guys like to tip generously and buy the girls meals and presents. This can markedly increase your outlay, although there is no need to do these things if you do not want.
Recent BB visitors please tweak my pricing if I am out of whack.
Other factors are the length of your stay and how much Spanish your speak. If you are only there a few days and speak no Spanish you will be happy staying on campus with maybe just a walk along the beach or to the shops each day. If for a week or more, you may feel the urge to get off campus, and taxis are notoriously expensive at Blackbeards (unless you can find other guys to share, in which case an afternoon in Puerto Plata or a day in Sosua would make a nice change of scenery). But if you start taking taxis solo that will affect your expenditure greatly.
Note that I have deliberately quoted in pesos, not dollars. Start thinking in pesos now, before your trip so you can evaluate prices as soon as you arrive. This can save you money.
Uber is finally in Puerto Plata area. I used it recently and price from BB to POP airport was below DOP 600 instead of DOP 2. 000. According to one chica Uber price can be lower than motoconcho sometimes.

Are Blackbeards recommending, or at least relaxed about, their guests using Uber?
Costambar taxi mafia is probably pissed. I only used it once without any issues.
BB staff did not have any recommendation back then because service is so new for PP area. BB may lose some commission they get from taxi mafia, so there is a conflict of interests.

Is there a place in Costambar, Puerto Plata to rent a car if you wanted to maybe drive to Sosua for a day? Is it recommended or is there a better option?
[QUOTE=AntFarm99;2087204]Is there a place in Costambar, Puerto Plata to rent a car if you wanted to maybe drive to Sosua for a day?

You may come out better renting a car when you arrive at the airport. If you take a taxi from the airport to BB, then back to Avis to rent a car, you have already spent what it would cost to rent the car for 3 days.

A) the rate will depend on car type, b) cars at Avis and Hertz cost nothing less than 25/30 dollars per day plus many kinds of taxes and airport fees and I am speaking of the smallest kind, and finally c) often times the insurance costs are as high as rental, which most renters want. Even arguing that this renter feels like driving without knowing the lay of the land in an unknown territory, the rental costs would not be the same, gas included, not including the aggravation.
If were him, I would take a bike from BB to the main road and grab a guagua to get to AVIS or whatever, all of which would not be more than 150 pesos or 3 dollars but like you did, only once he has a good grasp of the place and driving practice of others before renting and driving there.

If he is capable of taking a bike to the main road he could continue on it to the Parada de Sosua near the hospital and then take a publico to Sosua. Total cost about 250 pesos. Coming back, reverse the procedure but it would cost about 350 pesos at night-time.
A refinement on that would be to take a bike (or walk) to the main gate and see if the JC publico is waiting. Take that to the Parada de Sousa instead. If it is not, he could either wait for it (up to 20 minutes wait) or revert to plan A. This would not work in reverse because the JC stops running aroung 8 pm and I assume our friend will be coming back around midnight. He won't get the real flavor of Sosua unless he stays there that late.

Taking a motorbike to the Sosua terminus near the hospital is a smarter idea, and then a shared car all the way to Sosua, if his focus is on going to Sosua. If on the other hand, his focus is on rental, I was merely pointing out that while it affords him freedom, cost might be a handicap, what with insurance that most want. By the way, I notice that I see bigger and later model vehicles these days as taxis in the DR including Pto Pta -Sosua rides. The reign of the jalopies, otherwise known as Toyota Corollas are over, apparently.
I have seen rental ad on my way to Jenny supermarket, I am not sure if this was just an ad or if rental office located right there. 300-500 feet from supermarket on the street leading to the main gate.
Ask BB by e-mail or at reception.

Years ago, I had an accident caused by an idiot on a motoconcho, and Budget's insurance covered it, and I was able to complete the claim, etc, by email in the states.
If you deal with a large US company, you are safer than a local company that can cause a world of problems if something happens.

In some cases the same person will own 2 of them. Eg. Rafael (made up name) being the dueno of Avis and Budget.
Great report! It certainly has raised my interest in Blackbeards as a future destination.
It sounds like your ability in Spanish opened some doors and prevented some trouble for you. I'm learning Spanish now.
Thanks for the report.

When I had an accident, I was renting through the Budget office at the POP airport. I was able to turn in the damaged car, initiate paperwork, and finish the paperwork with the parent company, Budget, in the US. I dealt ONLY with the PARENT company. After I left POP, I had no contact with the office in POP. The corporate parent dictates how the local franchise operates. No Dominican squeezing of the yankee tourist. Threats of delaying their departure, etc.
I can imagine a lot of nightmare scenarios if I had this experience with "Chulo's Rental Car. ".

My experience is that whenever you call the US number those people put you on hold and call the owner in Santo Domingo. When I wrecked the car, US Budget had nothing to do with it. Santo Domingo Budget never sent the paperwork to American Express so the car never got paid for. These days if you refuse their insurance in DR they will not rent the car to you. If you call and complain to the US corporate they will tell you there is nothing they can do about it. Been there done that. That is why me and my friends no longer rent there.
[QUOTE=JustIncognito;2082333]Sorry this got long: but I feel a responsibility to this community to provide a full and detailed report since many of you helped me pan my trip and offered your time, knowledge and experience to help me have a solid trip. Thank you to those who helped me- I hope this at least entertains you and at most helps you in some way:
Landed in Santo Domingo and was picked up by a taxi driving friend of a friend that I had set up. He took me to Zona Colonial to a hotel he suggested. 50 bucks-just a 1 minute walk from Pizzarella right in the heart of the Colonial Zone.
Walked around a bit, got some pizza, got approached by a couple of skinny but dirty looking pseudo crack working girls who were working the streets. One was kinda hot-but just felt like a walking STD so I ignored her approach as best I could. Later that night, I walked to Oases strip club--probably not a good idea to walk there alone at night- but I move very fast and am on my game- but I would not suggest walking alone--there are definitely some sketch balls on the streets and its not very safe. At 930 PM the place was mostly dead. One fairly hot lady came out-tall, blonde, but not really my type: though I am sure many would have gone for it. I bailed out within a few minutes of being there and luckily a taxi drove by right as I walked out, so I took the taxi back to the hotel. I wasn't hoping for any action as I was heading to Barba Negra the next day so I wanted to save my energy..[/QUOTE]Excellent trip report brother. BB is definitely on my to visit list. I also completely agree with you on Medellin. I was just there and heading back there in December. Beautiful women all over.

Very different experiences. Complete opposite.
Still, I can only imagine that renting from "Papi Chulo" Rental Cars would be worse. Budget in US was very helpful, and VISA credit card service insurance covered me as well. Like I said, I turned it in at the airport, initiated paperwork, got back home, and finished the process at home.
I'd rather argue with a US representative than a Dominican.
P.S.
To all others: always buy the extra insurance. A gringo driving in the DR is risky business for a number of reasons. Driving is convenient, but if I can avoid it, I usually do.

The cost of insurance tend double up the cost of renting but I have peace of mind going anywhere.
Renting a car has definite advantages. Pick up a girl anywhere, not just in Sosua.
Jenny's (the supermarket in Costambar) has a vehicle for rent. Unfortunately I do not know any of the details, rates, etc.

Your options are:

2) A free-range vacation in Sosua or another town or city.
3) Mix and' match (1) and (2), in which case it makes more sense to start at Blackbeards to get a feel for things in a "sheltered" environment.
If you are physically unfit or cannot speak a word of Spanish or lack all street-smarts (like me on my first DR trip) then I would definitely stick to Blackbeards for your first trip.
If you have lots of confidence, can speak some Spanish, and are street-wise, you may find better value for money and a more varied holiday going free-range.
If you are somewhere in between those two extremes, only you can judge which is best.

My first ever trip to the DR I stayed two weeks at Blackbeards and loved it. I could easily have stayed another two weeks.
Other guys get bored there after two or three days, but I think they are mostly more experienced mongers who like a bit of adventure. (That could be you on your second trip and, trust me, when it is time to leave you will already be planning your return to the DR).
How long are you staying for? If more than four days you may want to get out of Costambar for a few hours in the daytime when things are quieter at Blackbeards. You cannot be fucking 24 hours a day, especially if you are on a budget. If you want to have a look at nearby Puerto Plata city, where I live, I would be happy to meet up in the daytime. But on two conditions: you will need a phone that works in the DR. (You can buy a local SIM card for US $3 to $5). And to PM me with its number you will need a subscription here.

My wife (of 31 years) and I are thinking about a 3-5 day trip to BlackBeards very soon. I have emailed the resort and they have given me the entire breakdown of how couples work at the resort. My question is for experienced visitors to this resort. Have you seen couples there before and what was your impression of how good a time they had? Do all of the girls pay attention to the couple or only a select few? We are very experienced and my wife really likes to watch me with other women, and of course participate with other women too, so just wanted to get a feel if it's worth it or not or if we'd feel like outsiders.

Thanks in advance![/QUOTE]My wife and I have visited several times over the past few years and have always enjoyed ourselves. Whenever we've visited, we've been the only couple there but have always felt very welcome. The age range of guests staying there varies in age from about 25 to 75 in every shape, nationality, color and size. We've always had a very positive experience with all of the other guests and the staff. We never felt like outsiders and we were very nervous on our first visit.
In response to your question "do all the girls pay attention to couples" the answer is "no". Most of the girls there are heterosexual with about 7 to 10 girls being bi. The first day we were there on our first trip, there was only one bi girl working that night. Her name was Karol and we hooked up with her and had a great time! The 2nd day on our first visit, there were no bi girls working during the day. We were starting to think we made a mistake going there, but we spoke to Rosa (the mamasan who manages the girls) and she showed us some pictures from a photo album and she called in a girl for us which really worked out well. She has become a regular for us every visit. Both girls still work there.
On our 2nd a 3rd trip there were always several bi girls working every shift and the girls we met from prior trips will always come in for you if you make an appointment.
Rosa and Kristel (mamasans) will give you the names of all the bisexual girls working there and will help you out. We had a list on our phones of all the girls who were bisexual and into couples. The one thing that you should watch out for is that when things are slow, we had several heterosexual girls approach us and want to hook up on different occasions. They would say they were bi, but they weren't on the list of names we got from Rosa. My wife is usually very good in picking out non bi girls, so we would just ask Rosa if they weren't on the list and she would laugh and say she's straight, things are slow and she wants your money. We passed on everyone of them and went with the ones we knew were bi. Sometimes I wonder how bad could it have been if we tried?

I think about 15 to 20 are bi or claim to be bi. Mamasans will help with first selection, but do not write off others. Talk to chicas, many can be bi depending on money situation, personal preferences and other factors. Helping chica with her first bi expirience could be a lot of fun LOL.

If you are staying at Sosua but want to visit BB can you bring the girls back to Sosua with you (if so is there a charge?
If not will they rent you a room at BB for a few hours (and at what cost?
Basically what I'm asking is do you have to stay at BB to be able to play with their chicas?
Providing they have rooms available, yes you can get a short term room to play with one of their chicas. The short term rate for a room used to be 900 pesos and the chica was 1800 pesos. That was about 2 years ago so I suspect they have gone up some. You can email them and ask for current rates. Go to their website for the address.

It's up to chica if she'll go with you to Sosua, she can ask for any amount, price limit is not valid for take out. And I guess chica would ask you to pay for return trip.

Some girls will refuse to go with you to Sosua, why should they bother when they can make money right where they are. If you get a girl to agree to go with you to Sosua she can charge you whatever she wants to charge and you can be rest assured that you will pay a premium and once she leaves the BB property she does not have anyone to answer to so why in the world would you pay top dollar and not have the protection (somewhat) that BB provides, there are literally a few hundred girls in Sosua, surely you can find one to your liking.

Why pay a premium (plus transport costs) when the only difference between the girls at Barba Negra and those in Sosua is the control which the Barba Negra management exercises over pricing and behavior? They all come out of the same pool of hookers, and if you have been around long enough on the North Coast you will see girls you know surfacing in most of the popular locations over the years.
Your proposal is as pointless as another one which crops up rather more frequently here. "Can I take into Barba Negra chicas I have picked up outside?
Mongering on the North Coast is simple. Why do newbies want to complicate it?

Play with BB girls if staying there & play with Sosua chicas when in sosua. You can also pull out of Pica Flor on the Cabarete side of Sosua. Had quality when I checked it out in Sept. , but premium price. $100 US for ST and $150 US TLN, includes transport back for girls.
Can anyone advise me on price / quality comparison between chicas at Blackbeards vs the freelancers in Sosua? I take it that Blackbeards has a roster of chicas available, although it didn't state it on their website. Thanks.
[QUOTE=Canucklehead;2125876]Can anyone advise me on price / quality comparison between chicas at Blackbeards vs the freelancers in Sosua? [/QUOTE]Yes, I can.
According to Bon Jovi the quality is far higher at Blackbeards. According to Oakie the quality is far higher in Sosua. And if you do not believe those two recent posters, a search will reveal posts from two dozen other members supporting each of those points of view.
It is one of those age-old riddles like "which came first, the chicken or the egg?

You will most likely see many of the girls from recent newsletter photos during your stay but if you don't see one that you had your heart set on, you can ask one of the waitresses at the bar for their "black book" which has photos of the girls along with their names. I haven't been there since February of last year so someone can correct me if they changed protocol on that.

Thanks so much.[/QUOTE]The question you are asking is meaningless. It is hard to explain why, but if you visit the DR, you will see why. Firstly the girls at Blackbeards and the girls in Sosua are not two distinct populations, there may be overlap. Secondly, quality of chicas is largely in the eye of the beholder, and there are no objective criteria to determine quality, thirdly the girls at Blackbeards charge a flat fee schedule, but the girls in Sosua are negotiable, so price / quality ratio dependents on your negotiating skill. There are also many other variables, such as the different cost of staying at Blackbeards versus taking girls out from Blackbeards. This sounds really complicated, but it isn't really. The key is just to spend or offer what you want to pay and what you think is value for you. Anyway if you find a girl who is perfect for you, the price will seem irrelevant.
However, if you are very worried about being ripped off, you might be better to stay at Blackbeards, because then you can budget your trip fairly accurately in advance and not have too many surprises.

There is no meaningful answer, other than perhaps writing a huge volume.
Frannie has well answered the quality part of your question. As for prices, they are fixed at Blackbeards, while you can pay anything from 500 pesos to 5000 pesos in Sosua depending on the chica, the day of the week, the time of the day, the venue, your negotiating skills, what you have to offer a chica besides money (if anything) and your level of Spanish (or Kreyol), among other factors. If you read the Sosua posts here you would already know that from the huge variation in newbie mongers' experiences and satisfaction levels.
Your post showed that you know and understand nothing about how things work here. No shame in that, we all started that way and some of us made some damn fool mistakes before we learned. But people will be more inclined to help you if you adopt a less confrontational attitude. I do from time to time try to help newcomers to the North Coast, not just online but in person.
And it gets even more complicated when you find that many guys ignore both Sosua and Blackbeards and choose to do their mongering in Cabarete, Puerto Plata (like me), Santo Domingo, Boca Chica or other places.

Just returned from a four night stay to Blackbeards. This was my second visit and I left a very detailed trip review here back in July.
This was a great trip and the experience at Blackbeards was enjoyable the first time and even better this time around. There is a reason this place has so much repeat business. They do it right.
I had some flight issues and could not get on the flight from MIA to POP on NYE. I ended having to rebook to take the 545 pm flight out of MIA into STI at 9 pm local. It was an hour and a half flight and Santiago was an easy airport to fly into. I was through customs before my bags hit the carousel. That never happens in POP. I arranged a driver on short notice that was referred to me by a friend. $80 one way from STI to BB's and he had me there by 11 pm.
The first night I get there and all the women I would have wanted were claimed. In fairness to Blackbeards when I notified them I would be in late the asked if I would like to reserve a girl. I declined as I thought there would be some that weren't taken that I would enjoy. I didn't partake in what was available.
After that it was out to Kviar. I usually enjoy Kviar and have written about my experiences there. On NYE night that place was packed. It is usually so full it is tough to move but this was even filled beyond that point. Not an overall enjoyable night there. I ended up leaving the club around 4 am. I ended up going downstairs to the casino and found one of the workers I had some fun with on my last trip. She looked even better this trip and was anxious to make some pesos. I ended up having a great nightcap to finish it off.
The next day I started early. Banged out some Asian looking chick (think her name was Kathy). I think I turned out some other chick as well before the night shift rolled in. On the night shift the current GOM was there. I had her on my past visit and it was just an ok experience. Anyway she looked good and I took the plunge and glad I did. She was fun. She has some ass and breast implants a pretty tight body overall. Nice and tall and she can take the dick. I ended up actually keeping her overnight. My first overnight I ever had at Blackbeards on any of my visits. She was that good. She gave me a nice wake up in the morning as well.
My third day after my morning session I ended up trying to chill out a lot. Pretty much just hung out at the pool getting caught up on TV shows and movies. It was nice. I also on occasion would take a chica back to my room for some fun. I ended up with Naomi and another one at separate times. Naomi can really go and is just as fun as she looks. I would highly recommend giving her a shot on a visit for anyone going.
That evening I had arranged to meet a girl I know from my past trip along with her sister. I call them the "spinner twins" and they are well known as sisters that cater to a GFE type experience at a high end adult resort. We agreed to meet in Cabarete at Ojo's and I had arranged a room over there. One thing led to another and they bailed because they couldn't get their trusted taxi driver. I ended up hitting up plan be which was a chica I met at Kviar in the past. She drives herself so she came by and we had some fun and she spent the night. Turned her out a few times and then back to BB's by 11 am in the morning. The place I stayed at in Cabarete was called "Cabarete Town house" It was a super nice one bedroom condo that I secured for $70 USD (I ended up paying in pesos). The downside to this place was the disorganization when I went to check in at 7 pm. No one was around and it was a fiasco to get in the room. Also the A/C was really lacking and that sucked. If they can get that issue resolved then it would be a place I would recommend staying at if you are out and about in Cabarate.
Also on this night I had the opportunity to step foot for the first time in Sosua. Just awful. I do not recommend to anyone. Low quality in terms of women and it was a sausage fest. Too many guys for so few good quality women.
My final full day and night I hung out at BB's and binge ate. I ended up banging out some broad early in the day and then the vibe was off during the evening. I met some friends for dinner at sole mio and then went back to BB's. The girls really didn't seem interested in playing. I know the last time I didn't like to constant aggressiveness to get you upstairs but sometimes it is good to have it. It is really tough to find that balance. I elected to wait until later in the evening to meet up with the spinner twins I had coming over. Took a blue pill for the first time and I really hammered these two chicas. The one has a tattoo that says "fuck me" on her pussy so I sure did.
My final few hours I spent laying around and relaxing. I wanted to bust out one more nut before I left and Flor was available. I posted about her and gave her the best head award on my last visit and she did not disappoint on this one. It was a good send off.
Overall I rate the trip an 8 out of 10. I deduct one point for the mistakes I made with my flight that caused me issues. I was able to recover from that and while it was costly but I made the best of it. I'll also deduct a point for the night I spent out in Cabarete / Sosua. I certainly had a lot of fun with my repeat chica from a past visit but I wasted a few hours and some pesos on taxis before that happened. Sosua was really a let down compared to Puerto Plata.
Of noted improvement his trip was the service, food, and overall conditions of Blackbeards. I had a new AC unit and better hot water this trip. The staff was also more welcoming and outgoing overall. Many of the women were smooth on this visit. Maybe my suggestion of offering them a waxing service came to fruition.
I will go back and am looking into how soon I can get back. I was thinking about a quick trip in early April but I may elect to wait until June and then do quick trips after that especially with the news from Jetblue that they will now be offering $99 flights on a new nonstop route from FLL to STI. This route actually has good flight times unlike the current spirit flight out of FLL and the less than ideal times back to MIA from STI.
[QUOTE=]I was thinking about a quick trip in early April but I may elect to wait until June and then do quick trips after that especially with the news from Jetblue that they will now be offering $99 flights on a new nonstop route from FLL to STI.[/QUOTE]A $99 ticket would be amazing seeing that taxes will run half of that. Great report BJ.
Also, looks like an Uber from the Santiago airport to BB will run you $41 on the low end and $55 on the high end versus the $80 taxi.
Hi All, Wanted to know if anyone onsite or was onsite that could get me a ballpark on the exchange rate for Canadian to DOP. I know that it is about 38 peso to 1 cdn but wanted to know what jennys was giving. I do the ATM / Cash most trips but was wondering what the rate was.
Hi all,
I have a significant other (real significant) but I have a hall pass to spend some time in the Dominican Republic. I'm going to be staying at Lifestyles Resort, in Puerto Plata, but keeping a room at Blackbeards. Obviously I'd love to just get a room at Blackbeards, but all kinds of things could go wrong with that if she asks me for the name and number of the hotel.
For those of you who have stayed at Lifestyles, how can I avoid the outrageous fares for the taxis at the resort? Can I walk outside the resort and flag down a local taxi? Better yet, anybody have contact information for a local driver who could shuttle me back and forth?
Thanks!
[QUOTE=Cigar56;2136035]... how can I avoid the outrageous fares for the taxis at the resort? Can I walk outside the resort and flag down a local taxi? [/QUOTE]As you probably realize, Lifestyles is only a couple of miles from Blackbeards. If you can find a local taxi it should cost you about 5 dollars one way. Much easier to find a motoconcho (motor-cycle taxi) which will cost you under 2 dollars (one way).
Uber also functions in that area if you have the technology.

I am very new to this. All seniors please advise as I did not get a satisfactory response from BB. I understand that this BB is a resort, where I have to pay for the room, meals, entertainment and girls.
They quoted me $65.00 for a single room. All I am interested in knowing about the girls and how does it work. Is there a rate card or menu for girls that includes the duration and number of sessions. Do girls provide GFE experience and if they are friendly in room. Do we need to pay for girl's meals, breakfast or liquor. Do we need to tip them. Can we take them out of the resort and how much is the resort fee. Do I need to bring condoms or girls will have them.

Rates for girls are posted at the hotel and girls are supposed to adhere to that. It was $1800, I think for short term. I only had short term both trips. I only had one try to up sell in my two trips. Maybe I was lucky, but all my sessions ranged from slightly above average, to mostly good to great. I always tipped some, except for the one who tried to up sell. On my repeats, service even better.
No need to buy drinks, food etc. Unless you want to, but it appears most posts where it was an all nighter, the customers would buy at least breakfast.
You can look for some of my posts on the subject, but plenty of info in the forum.

As far as GFE your mileage will vary from chick to chick, monger to monger, anyplace that you go. Don't expect to get the same experience that I got. You have to create and live your own experiences. My motto is don't buy them broads shit! You already have to pay them. Why do you feel the need to court them too?

When I first went to the DR, BB was the first place I stayed. I ended up meeting a couple of other guys staying there and we went to Sousa the last two days of my trip on a Friday and Saturday. The rest, as they say, is history!
Have fun amigo. Ask lots of questions, but be sure to read the forum first. When you demonstrate that you have some idea about the conversation already, others will be more inclined to respond positively.
By the way, BB is run by Americans (at least they where when I was there). No need for Spanish at this place, but it helps when conversing with chicas.

[QUOTE=HappyShiva;2147680]...Thinking of renting a car and leave early in the morning so, I can beat the rush hour traffic...[/QUOTE]Beautiful drive. Definitely doable. Prepare yourself for general lack of road signs. I think, at a minimum, you should be able to say, "Donde esta la carretera numero uno?
[QUOTE=HappyShiva;2147680]Not too much information on Caribe tours or metro bus website.[/QUOTE]What information do you need? You just hail a cab and ask them to take you to the Caribe Tours depot. The worse that can happen is the next bus to leave is full and you have to wait an hour in the bar or cafeteria for the next one. But that rarely happens.
When you get to Puerto Plata you take another cab at the bus dept and double back to Costambar. Unfortunately the buses will not stop near Costambar to let you off, however much you bribe them. But in your case, a complete newbie with no lack of cash, it is probably better that you take a cab from Puerto Plata bus depot to Blackbeards rather than stand on the highway with your baggage trying to hail one.
All this fuss and you are only staying two nights there? You would be crazy to rent a car for such a short stay. If you were there a couple of weeks, then maybe you would like a car for outings to vary your stay, but with only two nights you will be fucking nearly all the time. Let the bus take the strain!
Caribe Tours and Metro are two of the few large companies in the DR up to First World standards, although very cheap. The buses are modern and comfortable and very punctual. One warning: they are heavily air-conditioned so take an extra layer of clothing with you.
Metro is better for Sosua because the depot is in the middle of town, but Caribe is better for Blackbeards because their depot is on the nearer side (western side) of the city and because they run more frequently.

Just ask the guys at BB where it is and they will point you in the right direction. You can walk there and it is totally safe, as it is acutally located inside of the gated community of Costambar.

Take a look at what Charles Pooter wrote. As a newbie, I highly recommend that you avoid driving your first time in the DR. Many horror stories. There are even vets who live in the DR who dont drive or recommend it. If you get into an accident with a local you risk the chance of them taking your passport and extorting you for all kinds of cash that you will pay so that you can board your flight as scheduled. Maybe after you have a few trips under your belt. But to each his own.

[QUOTE=HappyShiva;2147395]I am very new to this. All seniors please advise as I did not get a satisfactory response from BB. I understand that this BB is a resort, where I have to pay for the room, meals, entertainment and girls.
They quoted me $65.00 for a single room. All I am interested in knowing about the girls and how does it work. Is there a rate card or menu for girls that includes the duration and number of sessions. Do girls provide GFE experience and if they are friendly in room. Do we need to pay for girl's meals, breakfast or liquor. Do we need to tip them. Can we take them out of the resort and how much is the resort fee. Do I need to bring condoms or girls will have them.[/QUOTE]I was just at be. Be. In late Jan. & after I left rates upped to 2100 p ST and 3600 p TLN. ST is 1 pop & TLN is 1 pop night, 1 pop in AM. Other than that you can negotiate anything else. BBBJ is pretty much standard. GFE with most. Bring your own condoms from the states or wherever you are from. Latest exchange is around 47-48 p / Tips, buying drinks, food is up to you. I think taking them out is $20 US exit fee. You can take them to restaurant or beach, no exitfee, but you must pay for time gone to them, once again, negotiate! Exchange $ just inside gate ofCostambar at Jenny's. Easy walk from BB. BB also has chica book that has pics of most chicas, & mamas an can call them in or tell you when they work. Have fun! Guys there at resort are like minded & can guide you or give you info on chicas, etc.
Thanks to all who has taken the time and guided me in the right direction. I have made the reservation with BB and they have sent me the news letter with all chicas info. I am arriving SDQ on 9th at 7. 00 pm, so I will stay in a hotel near caribe tours overnight. Next morning I am going to catch the caribe tours bus at 7. 00 am for POP and arrive BB at around noon. Will catch a taxi to BB from POP. All feed back from you guys are really helpful and will make my trip a pleasure and smooth. I will post my experience later on the post. If anyone from ISG will be at BB during next weekend, please stop by to say Hello,.
Hello,
I would like to stay at BB for a few days during my first trip to the DR, what is the quality of the ladies during he weekday.
[QUOTE=HappyShiva;2147886]If anyone from ISG will be at BB during next weekend, please stop by to say Hello,.[/QUOTE]What days are you there? I could visit for a chat (best around lunchtime) if you are interested. I live in Puerto Plata. But only if you have:
1) A phone that works in the DR.
2) Subscription here so you can use the PM facility to notify me your phone number.
Because I do not want to come over without your confirming your availability. I have suffered several no-shows after offering to meet newbies here. They are worse than putas!
If you have made friends at Blackbeards (as is usual) you will not want to bother with me.

.[/QUOTE]I agree that they are worse than a chica no show. About six weeks or so ago I offered to meet with anyone coming to Sosua and show them around, a few guys reached out to me via PM and gave me dates that they were coming and I gave them my contact info and not one of these losers contacted me once their boots were on the ground so screw it, I'm going to do my thing and the hell with the newbies with the exception with guys I meet in person at my local hangout, newbies on this board are on their own from now on.
Heavy rains and Dominican holidays may affect selection.

Suggest you check for yourself on their website. (Blackbeardsadultresort). Sign up for the free monthly newsletter, which includes photos of the girls.

Do I need to bring condoms or girls will have them.[/QUOTE]You've already gotten plenty of answers, but I will try to fill in any remaining gaps. There is no detailed "menu" as they have to be somewhat discreet with the law, though "short time" (ST) and "overnight" (Toda La Noche, TLN) prices are well known. Whether you get a 'GFE' depends on whatever chemistry you might have with a chica. Everyone is different. Bring your own condoms. Some girls may carry condoms distributed by health workers, but the quality may be poor. If I spend the night with a girl, I always offer her breakfast, but that's me. Likewise if I want a companion for dinner. Drinks, etc, are strictly up to you, as with tips.
Simply go down to the bar area after getting settled in, and relax. Scope the area, and if you see one you like, a little eye contact is all you need. You'll probably have several approaching you as well, but the choice is always yours. If you want anything "special" discuss it before going to your room, so there are no misunderstandings. There is a chica "manager" on site who can advise you, or make recommendations for a "Happy Hour" (three-way).
Some mongers get a thrill from treating the girls like 'hoes' but a little respect and courtesy are appreciated and go a long way, if you want a GFE. The girls are there to earn money, and you are there for sex, so don't be foolish, but treat them like your girlfriend, and they will reciprocate.
So, HappyShiva, how was it? After all our advices, any feedback would be appreciated, especially with fresh news of BB.
[QUOTE=NamasteParis;2152086]So, HappyShiva, how was it? After all our advices, any feedback would be appreciated, especially with fresh news of BB.[/QUOTE]Thanks to all who have given me the right advise to go to BB instead of wandering in the streets of Sosua. BB is really a paradise for first timers and very effortless. The atmosphere is quiet and very relaxing. I arrived at noon time on Saturday and was greeted by very friendly Clifford, and put me in a deluxe room. Gave me a tour of BB resort. I went to the room, took a shower, came down and jumped on massage table and took a professional massage for one hour only for 1000RD. After the massage had a lunch and was approached by few chicas who were in their mid 20's. The quality of girls is very good with very nice breasts, beautiful skin tones and booties. Most of the girls had natural breasts and firm booties. Took one small framed, round ass girl to the room. She took a shower, gave me GFE, BBBJ and wonderful sex. I was very satisfied, relaxed and then took a nap for two hours. Came down, had a free coffee and walked to the beach. Around 6 PM second shift of girls came who were similar looking to the morning shift girls. Took couple of girls to the room and had wonderful time. At night was the miss universe contest and had a real good time. I could not believe my eyes, the booty shaking of these girls on music.
This was my very short visit. Overall I am very satisfied with entire trip to BB. None of the girls were pushy or begged for tips, drinks or food. All chicas are very clean, looked healthy, nicely dressed (not vulger) and smell good. Mamasan Rosa was very friendly and regulated the girls so they do not rip off the customers. All mamasans at bar and restaurants are friendly, hardworking and always smiling. The food quality is good and drinks top shelf. I found the food and drink price to be reasonable. The resort is clean, lushly manicured and maintained. The room was clean with clean bedsheets, clean towels and a safe.
Definitely going back in the end of April and I encourage the blog readers to at least try the BB once in a life time. BB is very safe, very reasonable priced, well known, well maintained resort and the price of girls is very reasonable compared to the other parts of DR or south america.
[QUOTE=HappyShiva;2152640]All mamasans at bar and restaurants are friendly, hardworking and always smiling. [/QUOTE]Blimey! How many do they have then?
Both work in shifts, you can see them at the same time only during some events like bikini contest or Halloween.

[QUOTE=CharlesPooter;2152822]Blimey! How many do they have then?[/QUOTE]LOL, he must be talking about the barmaids & maids. They all have been around for years. There are 2 mamasans Rosa & Crystal that cover both shifts as Bliadun mentioned. (Crystal is available too.).

Well, the older the grape, the sweeter the wine so maybe she still looks pretty good. In any case the picture gave me a chubby.
Is 4/1 weekend a bad time to go? I know Easter in Latin America is usually dead. Any different at BB?
I will be in BB from April 27th until May 1st.
I will be at a Costambar for a couple of days before I head to Sosua for 6 days (in a week). I will be hanging at BB having a few drinks, watching the games and checking out the ladies. What are the costs and rules as far as taking a chica back to your hotel. If this question has already been answered, please lead me to that direction. Thanks.
Arrived from Santo Domingo with a bus to Puerto plata caribe tours station bus ticket cost 350 pesos. From station catch uber to BB resort for 150 pesos. Is not so many ubers at Puerto plata so sometimes need to wait they will show on app. I think most difficult time is catch uber at late night and early morning like between 2 am - 7 am around Puerto plata I try these times and never see any drivers. Check in at BB was easy nice and friend stuff is working there. The place is well maintained with nice swimming pool, jacuzzi, disco upstairs, bar, pool table 22 rooms. Girls cost is 2100 pesos for short time (can last up to1- 2 hours) and long time is 3400 (if some over mongers told me correctly because I never done LT there myself) Blowjob at jacuzzi cost 500 pesos but if you cum you need to pay full price (one girl told me like that so I can't be 100 percent sure) I don't try get blowjob at jacuzzi myself. They have 2 shifts here first start around 11 am till 5 pm or simillar and second from 5 pm till 11 am. They have book here with girls photos and if you ask they will show you. Some girls are good looking here some aint, but every day girls rotating so you always can find someone new also work one girl from venezuela here. Girls is friendly and gives good service also sometimes very mechanical. Mongering is very easy here just come to the girl you like said her your room number and what time you want she come. BB resort also make delicious food I always was eating here don't try other places around. This place is perfect for people who like relaxed holidays without hasle or for first timers at dominic respublic. I enjoy this place but second day get bored little bit so I make good desition not stay here longer and move to sosua.
Correction. Second shift is from 5 pm till 23.00 pm I make mistake before in time.
Thank you all for the awesome information and reports on this forum!
I'm looking to make my way down to Blackbeard's around the end of June for about a week of sunshine and debauchery. I was wondering if anyone knows what the current exchange rates are at BB's or at Jenny's Market? Looks like the official exchange rate is about 49 Dominican Pesos to 1 US Dollar. Thinking whether it would be a better move just to have my local bank order some Dominican Pesos and take them down with me? Am I understanding the rates correctly at BB for a rough conversion to dollars?
ST= 2100 pesos= $45 dollars.
TLN= 3400 pesos= $70 dollars.
[QUOTE=JackDanielz;2169251] Looks like the official exchange rate is about 49 Dominican Pesos to 1 US Dollar. [/QUOTE]The rate I found this week (at regular exchange places) is 49.15 to the dollar (Western Union). By the time, you spring out there, it is likely to be different, hopefully a higher number. I do not know of the two places you have mentioned for exchanging but they are likely to be lower. For example, when I was at a grocery store and did not have local money, they gave me a rate of 48 pesos to the dollar.

The dollar has maintained it's near historical highs despite falling out of bed against most other major currencies in the market. That being said my go to place to buy pesos is Carribe Express. The have a website. There are independent money changing establishments along with banks in SDQ. But I'm uncertain of the hours they keep. I can't speak to the availability of the exchange locations in the other airports. Having a few pesos in your pocket to get you through your first day is good if your local bank is not going to hose you on the exchange rate. If Blackbeard resort is your final destination and you don't plan to move around you have the weigh the transport costs of looking for a better rate outside the establishment against the rate the establishment is willing to give you.

Do not exchange money at BB if possible. They give a poor rate. Also, pay your bill in pesos, not dollars, for the same reason.
You can go to WU, banks, money exchange offices, etc, but frankly, Jenny's in Costambar is perfectly acceptable. As it is on the way, only 5 minutes from BB, etc, it can't be beat for convenience. Its rate is always pretty good. Have the cab wait outside while you make an initial exchange.
I have exchanged 200-300 dollars there with no problem.

I have been traveling to the Dominican Republic for a series of dental procedures and am about halfway through my journey. Of course I always blend in a lot of mongering. Haha. When in the DR I have always stayed at hotels that I could tell the significant other about and leave the number- places like a family resort. But this time I want to stay at Blackbeards for part of my stay, and obviously I can't give her that number. Any ideas? The best I can think of is telling her I'll be at an Airbnb on the beach and there's no phone. Another option is enrolling with the USA Embassy in their Smart Traveler program.
I could leave her with the Embassy's number for emergencies. Of course I will have my cell phone and have it on, um, most of the time. LOL. The embassy, or even a hotel number would be for the highly, highly unlikelihood that she could not reach me by cell.
Thoughts? I appreciate suggestions from others who have been in this situation.
Thanks!
Cigar, BB's is located in a gated community called, "Costambar. " Last time I checked there was tons of short term rentals on Airbnb near BB's. Some were easy walking distance to BB's though I've never stayed at any. BB's has very good wifi depending on your room, strongest by the pool and bar / restaurant area. So, if you can accept calls on your phone plan it won't be a problem. Costambar has its own beach nearby for the fake cover photos you'll need later. If you golf there's a 9 holer inside the community with gear rentals for more cover pics to establish your bonifides with your lady at home. Just walk by some place for rent and shoot a few pic outside and then take a few more of your BB's room and the pool without chicas present. Their only Penthouse suite looks like a small apartment if you can afford it, around $139.00 per night last time I was there and would provide decent cover pics. Money exchange at Yenny's market as soon as you pass the guard shack offers one of the best exchange rates in that area. I always exchange $1,000 USD on my way in. Tons of foreign expats live there so the retail service level is better than typical DR standards where they seem to hate their customers, WTF? Good luck. Geo.

I was at BB 10 days ago. I should have stayed 4 days and gone to Sosua for the remainder of my trip. This was my first trip to the DR. Initially I was going to meet a friend there but he was unable to make it. I should have done more research on this place. As Geolopes stated, it's in a gated community. They have a taxi mafia that will gouge you to take you anywhere. The Rat Bastards won't let Uber in too.
Some of the BB girls are on the chubby side. There were several Hot Babes. However, my issue with the BB girls: they're not GFE. If all you want is a fuk and a suk, It's the place. For the most part, they will not approach you. If they do, it's only to ask when you'll take them to your room. Only One BB chick was GFE: unfortunately I forgot her name. She's thick, big tits and ass.
A BB regular told me, before the girls where more active, like playing in the pool and doing things with the guests. Now they're just sitting around waiting, playing on their phones or sleeping.
Another DR regular told me the girls had similar attitudes throughout the DR. They'll be hot to trot in the bar, but in the room they don't deliver as promised.
Towards the end of my stay at BB, I was frustrated and didn't take any girls to my room.
The food at BB is good. Do visit Las Pizzaria Solemio, and Ricks Cafe in the area. I highly recommend Las Rocas Steakhouse, it was a pleasant surprise. On the beach, I ate at El Cary and Friky Beach. All these places are walking distance from BB.
I went to the DR, because I had heard it referred to as Rio lite. NO Way, based on this trip.
I have stayed at BB twice. If Sosua did not exist it would a choice I would make. However as long as I have some swagger Sosua is my 1st choice. The Sosua girls are more varied and have provided me with many awesome experiences. BB became boring to me. Most guys sitting around waiting for the same girl. BB is a great option for some guys. Just as Sosua is not for every body BB has its fans. Thanks for your reports they will be great insight for guys coming to our play ground.

Its something one finds on an individual basis, not a universal guarantee. I believe the chicas at BB are told by the hotel management not to be aggressive, or harass the guests, so they will wait for the guests to make the first move. Just wondering, do you speak any Spanish? Some chicas may speak English to varying degrees, but many do not. Not much basis for interaction or conversation other than gong to the room.
My Spanish is good, so in the past, I was able to chat a bit with a chica, establishing some rapport. Without that, a monger's conversation is limited to "suckee, fuckee" or Freaky freaky". To some extent, it also depends on the monger a bit. How do you behave with the chicas? Do you try to chat, maybe compliment them or flirt a little, or do you treat them in a cold, "business-like" manner? To a degree, you get out what you put in. (I suspect their non-use of the pool, etc, may be due to similar instructions).
In my personal experience, the atmosphere is much the same in Sosua. Competition for clients is fierce. Many will promise much and deliver little. Also many rushed "wham bam" types. Occasionally one may find a non-hardcore type. Bottom line is the experience is much the same. The chief benefit to BB is that you won't encounter scam artists, druggies, drama queens, thieves, or frauds threatening to call the cops on you. If you do have a complaint, you have someone to complain to.
NO place can guarantee you a GFE on a regular basis.
Firstly, thanks for reporting back on Barba Negra and on Cristal in the Puerto Plata section.
Yanqui69 and OldKool have commented well, but one thing puzzles me. JavaMan is a vastly experienced monger in numerous parts of the world. Moreover, he speaks Spanish. He should have been more than capable of handling Sosua, or Santo Domingo, on his first visit to the DR. Barba Negra is great for some guys, especially first-timers, but I would not have expected JavaMan to stay there.
Even more surprising, if he wanted a spell off campus, why go to a notorious sucker trap like Cristal? He seems to like girls approaching him (I hate it) so he would have been better off at the revamped Field of Dreams. A little cheaper than Cristal and plenty of flacas would try to engage him there. Some guys work Cristal by collecting phone numbers and meeting the girls out of hours, but I have never seen the point of that. Or he could have tried Kviar.

While the more Spanish you speak, the better and more economical time you will have, it is also true that you do not necessarily need much. Despite 12 plus years visiting and then living in the DR, I am ashamed to say that mine is still pretty basic, but it has rarely hindered me in my daily routine or chatting up chicas. So do not be discouraged if you are not fluent. Every little helps.
I used Uber several times without a problem. Only once driver canceled my order after going to taxi mafia stand, I ordered another one and was on my way in 5 minutes.
[QUOTE=JavaMan;2179659]They have a taxi mafia that will gouge you to take you anywhere. The Rat Bastards won't let Uber in too.

Maybe you saw chicas who already finished their shift and were about to leave.

[QUOTE=Bliadun;2179909]Maybe you saw chicas who already finished their shift and were about to leave.[/QUOTE]Well spotted, Bliadun.
Not only are they forbidden to use them (a rule I would like to see extended to the whole Dominican population, especially those driving or offering any sort of customer service) but they have to hand in their phones at the start of each shift.
But to be fair to JavaMan, he or any new visitor is not to know that and it might just look like sloppy behavior.

No doubt this was said by someone that has never been to Rio. LOL.[/QUOTE]Friends of mine have just returned from Kenya and are raving about the ubiquity of GFE and enthusiastic customer service there, so it is not unique to Brazil.
Even in the DR, he would do better to stay away from the tourist spots and explore the bateys, barrios and back streets. GFE can be found.
[QUOTE=Bliadun;2179907]I used Uber several times without a problem.

But if a problem, meet the cab just outside the main gate of Costambar.
Yes, I speak Spanish, fluently. Yes, I've been to Rio, many a time. So much, that I learned to speak, write and read Portuguese. I've found GFE and PSE in Rio, and Thailand. GFE in the Philippines too. (It's know for that.) During my trips to Rio is where I Heard the DR called Rio lite.
They all must have Not gotten the memo prohibiting cell phone use during their shifts. Not all, but some were busy texting.
I chatted the BB chicks in Spanish, I found them to be too business like. That's just a big turn off for me. Only one was fun.
And again, I was going to meet a friend there, who's a BB regular, but he bailed on me. The other friend that flew down there with me, stayed too far from BB. He's a regular visitor to the DR and already had chicks lined up.

Sounds like you need to find some new mongering wingmen. Plenty of long-lasting friendships have been formed between board members in the DR.

Not a problem so long as they have rooms available. They have short time rates for rooms.

Do you remember Loveras House? Was it a few minutes walk from Parque Central and the cathedral? If so, I might know it after all. Frank's former mamasan started a little casa a few yards from Ana Mirian once she and Frank were "evicted", using Frank's former chicas. I have not been there for ten years.

In the DR I have mongered mostly in Sosua, but want to spend a few days at Blackbeards this time. Trying to decide if I am going to stay a few days over the weekend or during the week. The Bikini Contest seems interesting, and I suspect their is a livelier atmosphere overall on weekends. On the other hand, maybe it's slower starting on Sunday and easier to book the most attractive chicas? Also, I hear some of the Bikini Contest participants may come from off campus. Is this true, and if so are the available after the contest. Finally, is the Bikini Contest a "can't miss" event or overrated?
Thanks for any comparison on weekday stay vs weekend stay.

Not sure what bearing that would have on anything. They are all probably new to you so what would it matter? They are all hookers so you are not breaking any new ground.
As far as the bikini contest it is no big deal. Just a few chicks lined up in front of the pool for a couple hours and 3 guys as judges. Some jump in the water and some don't. Nothing to plan a trip around. You can stay in Sosua as you normally do then go to BB for the contest then head back to Sosua after.
Again, all BB is is a hotel with hookers hanging around. For some reason people have a picture that it is more than this.

Thanks for any comparison on weekday stay vs weekend stay.[/QUOTE]Like said, all the BB bikini girls are regular BB girls that work there. The contest is kind of boring as it is stretched out for a couple hours. Weekends are definitely better as the upstairs crows nest (disco) is open Thurs, Fri, Sat nights for events. Check out the BB website for their calendar of events.

Thanks for any comparison on weekday stay vs weekend stay.[/QUOTE]The posts in response to these questions are accurate. The bikini contest is entertaining if you have nothing else going on. The girls strut as in any contest, with the addition of raunchy stunts with the judges (lap dances, face straddling, etc) to earn extra points. Good opportunity to scout out talent, as in addition to the contestants, lots of off duty BB girls come in to watch the contest. You can scope out lots of chicas for future meetings. When staying at the hotel, it was not my favorite time, as all available girls were caught up participating or watching the event, so none available for play. Unless its changed, the contests were on Saturdays, not Sundays.
Its worth a look, for scouting purposes, somewhat entertaining for an afternoon.
The slowest days are Sunday thru Thursday, though there are girls on site everyday. If you prefer a quieter atmosphere, this can actually be good. You can check out their photos and have a girl called in if you allow some time for that.
Friday and Saturday nights have events up in the second floor "disco. " Lots of girls in scanty outfits, contests, etc. Keep in mind that on the weekends, there is also increased demand, and you can't wait too long if a particular girl appeals to you or someone else will beat you to it.
Suggest going online to get their free newsletter. It published pics and a calendar of events.

I have been there twice on Sunday, I is a good way to kill an hour or two, but I wouldn't say it is can't miss. If I happened to be there, I would definitely stay to watch. All the girls won't stay, but you will see many of them if you stay for a while. If you email BB, the will send you a photo list, I think this is photos from the bikini contest. Supposedly girls on duty, but you won't see all of them there at one time, if at all. But will give you an idea of some of the talent.

Yes, a prescription is the preferred way to go. That said, there may be reasons its not possible (insurance coverage refusal, high cost of prescription, etc, etc).
On the idea of smuggling, etc, I think many mongers return from trips to the DR with extra tabs of La Pela. If we are talking about a dozen or so, versus 100's, there should be no problem. Likewise, putting a dozen or so foil wrapped tablets (yes, yes, prescription medications) in the mail is technically wrong, but, in a practical sense, has negligible risk. Packaged in a bubble wrap envelope or small box with no return address, the risk is negligible. Additionally, the likelihood that the package would get any attention from the USPS is negligible.
I would bet that the number of mongers who contacted friends visiting the DR, asking them to "pick up a few for me" is huge.

To bring drugs into the USA: 1) It has to be in its original packaging, 2) You have to have a prescription for it. Even though one would face the same consequences, taking the risk for yourself is way different than taking the risk for a stranger from the internet.

[QUOTE=JavaMan;2179659]I was at BB 10 days ago. I should have stayed 4 days and gone to Sosua for the remainder of my trip. This was my first trip to the DR.

They have a taxi mafia that will gouge you to take you anywhere. The Rat Bastards won't let Uber in too.
Some of the BB girls are on the chubby side. There were several Hot Babes. However, my issue with the BB girls: they're not GFE. If all you want is a fuk and a suk, It's the place. For the most part, they will not approach you. If they do, it's only to ask when you'll take them to your room. Only One BB chick was GFE: unfortunately I forgot her name. She's thick, big tits and ass.

Hey guys, I was thinking of coming to Blackbeards soon. Have been to the DR many times but never there. Can somebody please advise me, can you pay a chick there by hour to come to your room? What do they charge on average? Are they pretty liberal, PSE sex available? Do most do BBBJ? I read here that there are many curvy ladies, more so than on the newsletter photos then, because in my eyes they're pretty skinny! I'm into curvy, big tits and ass types, are there many like that there? What's the atmosphere like there during the day, can you just go and sunbathe by the pool and relax if you're not in the mood to monger, without anybody bothering you? Are the management easygoing? How's the food? Sorry for all the newbie quesitons, but would really appreciate your advice! .
I'm thinking about heading there myself. I've seen their menus online, the food is reasonable, but I didn't see any drink prices listed. How much are their beers rum and cocktails? I'm also curious about the costs of the rides at the cabstand. How much is a typical ride into the main town, and Sousa? I'm trying to figure out a realistic budget to bring.

Prove me wrong (it's why I'm here). Based on my research, BB seems like a no brainer. I'm currently trying to hash out the best week for me to go based on work and family obligations. For me, I want safety, reliability, additional tourist excursions, beach time and pussy on demand for a reasonable.
Price. I have yet to see a safer or better option. (As a total Newb to the DR, I'm very open to a better idea, but I'll need some serious logical convincing to steer me otherwise).
Isn't this what these forums are all.

[/QUOTE]You ain't wrong. For a newbie, especially one with little or no Spanish, it is the best option. If you fall in love with the DR, as I did on my first visit there, you may want to spread your wings a bit on subsequent trips, but it is a great introduction.
A few qualifications;.
1) Although the girls are generally reliable there, they are human, most of them with financial, family or relationship pressures we can only guess at (and would very wise [U]not[/U] to ask about). So not every session will turn out to be a winner. I guess out of every ten sessions, two may disappoint you. On the other hand, one may blow your mind. Which brings me to another point. Don't fall in love! It is so easy and many of the hardcore mongers here have done so in their early days. It will only end in tears (hers and yours, or just yours). And do not lose your cool over small pricing disagreements. Just put it down to experience.
2) There are, as far as I know, no haitianas there, so that is a new experience you can look forward to on a subsequent trip to the "real" DR. Just hard luck for now!
3) As stated, you will be paying a little more for everything for the convenience of having it "on a plate". Food, drink, sex, taxis and outings will all cost a bit more, but you should be protected from major rip-offs.
4) The swimming is not great next to Blackbeards. It is down-current from the sewage and industrial effluents of Puerto Plata City. Not many local gringos swim there. Dominicans yes, but they would swim in a septic tank. If you want a day on the beach there is a nice beach at Cofresi nearby. Puerto Plata city beaches along the Malecon are better than at Costambar, but still not a good choice.
5) Consider palling up with other guests. Could be chances to share taxi outings to Pto Pta, Sosua, Cabarete or wherever. Taxis charge by mileage, not by number of passengers so it can work out much cheaper than Blackbeard's posted outings.
6) I assume you do not speak Spanish? If you have time, try to learn the basic salutations and numbers. Also practice thinking in pesos (not dollars, euros, or whatever) now and ask for pricing in pesos once there to avoid rounding-up. If anyone quotes you something in dollars it usually means you will be paying "tourist" prices. For example, if something costs RD$850 they will probably ask you for "US$20", around RD$1000.
Have a great time and let us know how you get on.
If I were to want to indulge in a stimulant is it easy enough to come by it at BB's? Or without venturing too far afield?
[QUOTE=MyCount4;2251575]If I were to want to indulge in a stimulant is it easy enough to come by it at BB's? Or without venturing too far afield?[/QUOTE]Not that I know of. You probably need to venture into Sosua for that.
[QUOTE=MyCount4;2251575]If I were to want to indulge in a stimulant is it easy enough to come by it at BB's? Or without venturing too far afield?[/QUOTE]The hotel has had a strict policy prohibiting illicit substances on the premises. There's a lot of money invested in the place, and they will not put it at risk. Yes, ask around in Sosua, etc, but keep it off the premises at BB.
In some countries, it may lead to a jail time or a bribe.

I will be in DR around Christmas and will stay at BB. I am a first timer so I think it will be perfect for me. I was wondering if one can take 2 girls to his room. If so, what can be expected?

But if you take two straight girls they may work on you simultaneously* but not do anything to each other. Best select a bi-girl (mamasan will help) and let her select her partner.
*I said "may work on you simultaneously". They may also work on you in turn while the other fiddles with her smart phone. The other problem with two girls at once is it is harder to keep an eye on your stuff.
Thanks for the quick response!
I was wondering if there was an ATM machine close by, since everything needs to be paid in cash and the fact that I don't want to carry a significant amount when I arrive.

In my day the nearest ATM was at a garage on the highway. Not too convenient, and potentially dangerous after dark. I hope BB regulars can update this info?

Bb is quoting me 45 $ for airport pickup. Can I use Uber instead? If so what is the going rate?
Also, if I don't take BB's pickup, can a regular cab be negotiated down?
[QUOTE=Manizales911;2253796]The name of the market is Jenny's and they now have an ATM outside.[/QUOTE]I used to regularly change a few hundred dollars at a time at Jenny's. Always a very good exchange rate, too. Its just me, but I prefer to do so in private, in the office in back. I also used the opportunity to buy a few items, like bottles of water, etc, and left like any customer. Crime is not a problem in Costambar, but I dislike peeling out a few hundred dollars worth of pesos from an ATM in public view. But that's just my preference.

I am somewhat a veteran to the DR but I haven't been down for a couple years. I am used to flying in and buying the $10 tourist card before customs only to hand it to someone right after passing thru. I read somewhere it is now part of the airline ticket fees. Is this correct? I would feel stupid looking where to buy it if things have changed. Thanks in advance for your help.
BTW shout out to my homies who remember me back when I used to travel there and post here regularly. Thanks again.

Thanks. I looked on my ticket in the small print it shows up like your example.

It just made arriving more difficultand time consuming.

You got your answer, so this is extra. I recently flew in / out of POP, and also looked around for the usual tourist card kiosk, but lacking that, went right into the line with my customs card. A new addition to the process was the photo taking of fingerprints at the customs booth, but that was very quick. Best of luck to you, and take care.

The problem with taxi mafia is only when you leave FROM Costambar, not when you arrive. These assholes charge you DOP 2,000 instead of DOP 500-550!
I would recommend sending the following message to the driver-When you enter to Costambar if asked by the guards at the gate where are you going, just tell them that you picking up a friend, do not mention Uber. Cuando ingrese a Costambar si los guardias le piden a la puerta a dónde va, solo dígales que está recogiendo a un amigo, no mencione a Uber.

My cousin was leaving Blackbeard's for the airport and the rest of our friends were leaving on the same exact plane. They had arranged a van to take them that was not affiliated with BB or the mafia, so he was going to hitch a ride with them. But one of those taximob SOB's sat and waited for the very moment they left to say that they had too many people in the vehicle, and that someone would have to take him. I had some choice words for that SOB, since I wasn't leaving and thought that it was none of his fuckin business about who was riding along, but he was persistent and my cousin ended up caving to his demands, but there's no fuckin way I would let him snatch me from a ride I had already arranged.
Hello to all,
I have been reading the board for some time but have not seen this posted (unless it was sometime ago) but what is the availability of male enhancers at BB?

If yes, there is a pharmacy across the street from Jenny supermarket near the main gates of Costambar. Generics are DOP 50 per pill, originals are about DOP 500.

[QUOTE=HappyShiva;2262109]I would suggest BB for first timers. Only drawback is that the place becomes boring due to lack of activity and surroundings. You can have sex with 3 or 4 chicas but after the sex, you do not have too many options to entertain yourself unless you go to beach by yourself. [/QUOTE]I only stayed there once, on my first DR visit. I stayed two weeks and was never bored. I could happily have stayed another two.
True there is not much going on in Costambar but you can get to Puerto Plata city and back by publico for less than two dollars. For nervous newbies, I recommend doing this in the daylight when BB is quieter, and getting back before dark. I think the last "JC" publico to Costambar leaves the city about 5 pm but you would need to check as I have not done it for many years.
[QUOTE=HappyShiva;2262109]Make sure that you mingle with other gringos and entertain yourself with their company.[/QUOTE]
I met one American there and learned a lot about the DR and putas from him. Nice guy and I missed him when he left. But then I hooked up with another guest, a limey. Their company, the girls' company, and some time on my own made a nice balance, so never bored.
One advantage of mixing with other guests is that there may be opportunities to share taxis for outings. Three or four guys sharing a taxi works out real cheap.

So the last 5-6 times I have been to BB's I have rented a car for my trips (knock on wood no accidents and only day time driving).

The nearest would be the route "C" guagua which runs along the main highway. So you would have to walk to the highway from the airport and walk from the highway to Blackbeards. A lot of walking especially if warm or raining (and it is usually one or the other in the DR). To add insult to injury, the "C" guaguas are relatively infrequent (every 20 to 30 minutes) and incredibly slow. So I would forget that option.
I am a real tight-ass but I would bite the bullet and take a taxi from the airport if I had any sort of baggage.
A cheap option if nothing to carry: walk to the main highway (about half a mile). Catch a publico to the Hospital in Puerto Plata. Catch a "JC" publico to the main gate of Costambar. (The JCs run about every 20 to 30 minutes and cease around 6 pm). Then take a moto to Blackbeards. But even I would forget all that and take a taxi.
So I arrived Saturday night. It is my first time at BB and I surely can't complain. I do have to pace myself as I do not have as deep pockets as I would like to.
Nevertheless, I had the pleasure of meeting 4 women so far and here is my ranking.
1- Andy.
31 years old but looks a bit younger. Really aims to please and is no rush at all. A1 from start to finish. Gave me a nice massage after the action, which was quite pleasing.
2- Fresita.
19 years old with perhaps the greatest body of them all. Se can't be more than 100 pounds yet she has great breast. Also a pleaser but not as natural as Andy. Still very good all around.
3- Maria.
Chica del mes. I got her maybe 20 minutes after I got here. That would be 2 minutes after my shower! Very nice all around.
4- Nathaly.
22 years old with a prototypical spinner body. She was kinda sick but I still went for it since I would have dreamt about her body all night. She was not that much into it and had some restrictions (digits and DFK) so that was quite a turnoff. Her reactions seemed fake.
Certainly not a repeat.
2 days in I must say that BB delivers for the rookie monger that I am.

Yesterday night I gave Shakira a shot. Mostly disappointing. She has a great body and says she has been at BB for a month. She does not speak a word of English, so it makes everything a bit more difficult. I do have some basics in Spanish but it is always nice to see the girl make some effort to bridge the gap.
Kissing did not seem her forte. She was quick to go for the the. BBBJ skills were OK but then I went for a 69. Hygiene was not to my liking there. She then insisted on doggy but you can again imagine the smell. So I was just trying to cum but was mostly turned off. So I removed the hat and asked for BJ. She had me finishing on myself.
As far as hygiene, that was a first on the trip. I licked the ass of all the other girls and it was a delight every time.
Certainly not a repeat.
About a year ago I found an incredible service which is similar to Supershuttle. It is [URL]www.tropiclink.net[/URL] (Nexus Tours).
You are picked up at the airport and taken to BB for only $22 roundtrip. That is $11 one way! You reserve and pay online in the US before going.
Don't pay the outrageous BB taxi prices. Even though it is a shared van I have gone alone more than 70% of the time.
Please do not let the managers at BB know about this! And make sure to tip your driver at least 200 pesos.

Hi All, this is the age old battle that I deal with and that is CDN vs USD. I was wondering if anyone on the ground knew what the current rate was for CDN and USD from Jennys.

[QUOTE=OzzyHead;2250902]Prove me wrong (it's why I'm here). Based on my research, BB seems like a no brainer. I'm currently trying to hash out the best week for me to go based on work and family obligations. For me, I want safety, reliability, additional tourist excursions, beach time and pussy on demand for a reasonable.
Price. I have yet to see a safer or better option. (As a total Newb to the DR, I'm very open to a better idea, but I'll need some serious logical convincing to steer me otherwise).[/QUOTE]It's probably a bit late for you, but I never gave a report of my own trip which may be helpful to some people. I went in early 2017 so some information may be out of date. I won't bother with rates, but you can't contact BB's before your trip and ask.
As a bit of an aside, a recent poster mentioned Andy. Great to hear that she's still there! Andy is a real sweetheart. I've been missing BB's lately and Andy would be almost at the top of my list if I ever get to return. I'm crap with names but she'd often pal around with another girl who would be top of my list. Sadly I only got to spend time with her once during my stay, though had a few sessions with Andy.
My trip started like a lot of people's; got there late at night and got immediately pounced on by a couple of the girls! I had a few hundred dollars on me so took one of the girls for short time. She gave a good BBBJ and I slept like a baby.
The next morning I went to Jenny's to exchange some Euro. They brought me into the back and asked me if I was okay with the rate before completing the transaction. I got a little less than the current exchange rate, but more than most exchange places were offering. Jenny's also has an ATM. When I was there the limit per card was 10,000 DOP, and it was frequently out of order. I suspect it just couldn't keep up with the demand and kept running out of cash. It's also convenient to get some things in the market. Toiletries (I had forgotten to pack mouthwash) or drinks and snacks (cheaper than the mini bar). It's also nice to get an ice cream while you're there! It's about a 15 minute slow walk to the market. You could get a moto to bring you, but I preferred the exercise and security is not an issue in Costambar. The only issue I did have was one time a couple of police officers stopped me to look for a "tip". I pretended to be a dumb foreigner who didn't speak Spanish (mostly true) or English. If the ATM is out of order you can get a taxi to an outside ATM for a small fee. If that happens there'll likely be other guests in the same predicament, so you might be able to share a cab.
I was there for two weeks, so boredom was a bit of a factor. You can't spend all day fucking! I did a lot of day trips with a local tour company called Iguana Mama, some of which they sub contracted to others. The highlight was the 21 waterfalls tour where you jump your way off waterfalls down a river. Great fun and almost worth the trip by itself! I did snorkelling, ATV riding, the city tour, etc. Some tours I got picked up or dropped off by the market or gate to Costambar for discretion, but some insisted on picking guests up at the hotel. Another aside here is if you do the city tour and visit the 'cigar factory', buy some juego mama there. There's vast differences between brands and my biggest regret is not buying more than two small bottles there.
It's good to get out of the resort during the day. There's less girls around during the day, and if you are worn out from the night before (like me! It can be annoying when they won't take no for an answer. They would never bother me too much, and go away when I said I'm too tired, but another girl would try within minutes, and the first girl would probably be back within an hour. You can't blame them really. They're there to make a living. I can't say that the ways they tried to convince me were all bad either. Mostly if I wasn't out on a day trip, I'd hang around the beach, get a taxi to the FixCi gym or hide in my room. The TV in my room played videos from by USB stick, so I was able to watch TV shows and movies I had saved without resorting to my tablet. The cable was also relatively good. I was able to watch the League Cup final in my room. Taxis charging the gringo price could be expensive on my own, but somebody will quickly hook you up with a local taxi driver who will do it cheaper. Hanging around the beach can be a good way to spend a lazy day or two as well. I met two guests at a beach bar / café one day and we ending up chatting for most of the day. The (many) beers and lunch we consumed during the day cost us $15 a head including tip. Of course if you're not worn out there's just as much fun to be had during the day. The same girls rotate and do the day shift so there's plenty of attractive women around during the day too.
The food at the resort is okay. I think the problem is supply chain and lack of quality ingredients rather than the chefs themselves. I always found even eating at expensive restaurants (eye watering by local standards) was underwhelming. Breakfast and especially the fruit plate was usually pretty good, and for price and convenience I wouldn't really knock the place for lunch / dinner. There's an Italian place around the corner that is better for an evening meal though (SoleMio), and some of the guests liked to get breakfast in Rick's Café.
I've gotten this far and hardly mentioned the girls! The answer is varied. Sometimes you get out of the experience what you put in, sometimes it depends on the girl themselves. Most of the time if the girl has been doing well lately she'll probably put minimum effort into everything, compared to a girl who hasn't had many customers lately. Sometimes if you have a girl you pick 3/4 times you get less and less effort every time, sometimes she learns what you like and it gets better every time. The best experience I had while I was there was after one of the Friday night parties. A lot of the girls love the parties and love to dance. If you're a good dancer you'll be popular with the girls. If like me you're a terrible dancer but make some effort to move a bit the girls will still appreciate the effort, and it's never bad to have lots of girls in tight outfits grinding on you! I spent a lot of time that night with another girl who would be high on my list (Yana) who I'd been with a couple of times before and that top-of-the-list girl whose name I can't remember and brought both back to my room for the night.
When you're there for two weeks you get to realise there's some infighting amongst the girls. Don't even try to get involved! They're competing amongst each other and some women just aren't going to get along with each other anyway, so just stay out of it. Not your problem. Another possible thing to avoid is when you're looking for two girls allowing the first girl to pick the second. This can be tricky. You want the girls to get along and don't want to pick two girls who hate each other, but sometimes the first girl will pick a friend who hasn't had many customers lately, who might not be top tier in terms of attractiveness. It might be better to suggest the second girl to the first and see her reaction.
I have to go soon so I'll try and finish off on a positive note. Enjoy the events! Go to all the parties in the Crow's Nest and don't miss the bikini contest if you're there at the time. I never got to see the wet t-shirt competitions and regret missing those, but I did get to be a judge for the bikini contest and it's something not to be missed! I've heard that lately the judges kick in some money to make the contest more enjoyable, so it must be even better now.
Reading all the reports in here, I'm really considering going to BB soon. Have been to the DR before but never to BB. I know many must have asked this before, is BB the best in DR? Looking at the rate they are offering, I can't find anything similar that can compete to BB.
To Colbert1 or anyone else with first hand experience with this option. I'm scheduled for a visit in about a month. This option looks great. As I'm looking at the booking screen, just hoping to understand some nuances.
I'm up to the payment screen and it doesn't mention the name of the service (Nexus Tours or otherwise) or where the pick-up location at the airport is. Question: where / how does pick-up work at the airport? And on the flip side, where / how does pick-up on the return trip work?
Appreciate the guidance. Thanks!
[QUOTE=Colbert1;2265842]About a year ago I found an incredible service which is similar to Supershuttle. It is [URL]www.tropiclink.net[/URL] (Nexus Tours).
You are picked up at the airport and taken to BB for only $22 roundtrip. That is $11 one way! You reserve and pay online in the US before going.
Don't pay the outrageous BB taxi prices. Even though it is a shared van I have gone alone more than 70% of the time.
Please do not let the managers at BB know about this! And make sure to tip your driver at least 200 pesos.[/QUOTE]

The alternatives are very over-priced, and justify it with being "elite" or "exclusive. " Most would say, not worth the price.
The other alternative is trolling the bars and streets of Sosua. There are many who prefer that, as they enjoy the process of "fishing" for the next chica.
I was always too impatient and too lazy for that. Been there, but it simply wasn't my taste, and ultimately, that is who you have to please, - yourself.
Boknerr & George03 - Appreciate the feedback.
George03 - A follow-up: the tropiclink payment page listed 22 USD RT consistent with what Colbert1 posted. You mentioned 75 USD RT. Did you use a different service / company? Thanks for the clarification!

Been doing a lot of reading on here, this forum is great! So glad I found it. I was really on the reserve about going but now I am sold. Going to be booking my trip soon!
One thing I have not found though. If you chose to have a girl for all night or (2 session) are the girls allowed to catch a buzz with you or possibly get a little tipsy (drunk). LOL.
Some of the other resorts I have stayed at really shyed away from this. They allowed the girls to drink but they could not get drunk.

I know of no restrictions on the girls drinking. (Anything like weed, however, is strictly prohibited on the premises). Can't imagine that anyone would object. Guys are constantly buying chicas a beer, etc. I often used to buy a large Presidente for a couple of girls to share at a table.
In fact, in the past, one chica preferred to toss back a couple of tequilas, to get really primed for a session with me. The girls don't exactly work FOR the hotel. They are technically not BB "employees. " They are technically freelancers, but have to comply with certain requirements and standards of conduct to be allowed to ply their trade on site.
One word, though. You might have a good time with a slightly buzzed chica, but not a drunk chica. You can never know what effect too much alcohol will have on someone. Can open the flood gates to a lot of unwanted drama.

While the chicas necessarily put on a happy face, they mostly have all sorts of personal problems arising from poverty, and the poor standards of health and education in the country, abusive partners or family members, etc. Plus very few are really comfortable deep down with being working girls. This is rarely a problem as they do a professional job, but if drunk their restraints are lowered and they can blow their top for trivial reasons, and if you too are drunk you may not respond in the wisest way.
Obviously less of a danger at Blackbeards, but it has happened there.
I always wonder why guys drink to excess here. They can do that in their own countries, but they cannot normally find girls at DR prices.

Point well taken, ha, Definitely do not need any of that unwanted drama. Probably not a good idea for either to be drunk. LOL. Buzz is good.
I personally am not a heavy drinker mostly a social drinker but it is nice when you do drink if they could drink a little with you. Thanks again for every ones feedback. Much appreciated!
This is going to be a great trip!
Unless chica will become aggressive it's not a problem as hotel makes a huge chunk of its profits from booze sales. Just try to be careful, drunk chica can be a lot of fun or a total disappointment.
Once I took chica to the room from the bar without realizing she was very drunk and had one of the best wild sex experiences of my life. She almost broke my dick in the process, LOL. I have noticed a few bruises on different body parts only next morning.
Another time chica was drinking a lot at the disco and was funny as hell, but when we came back to the room and I went to the shower she fell asleep and I was not able to wake her up by any means, even by putting a few ice cubes from the refrigerator on her back LOL. Morning sex was pretty bad due to her hangover. She even tried to ask for payment for TLN, unsuccessfully of course.

After researching here and elsewhere, I decided to make my first trip to DR in June. Signed up for BB newsletter, Flight booked, reserved room at Blackbeards. Now waiting.
If anybody else planning to be at BB in June, hit me up. We can see if our dates line up.

Don't open that door. On your part, getting drunk is a mistake (as I know personally) as too much numbs the mind, senses, memory; all of which you want to keep. If I am drinking hard liquor, it robs me of the experience, and to a degree, my memory of the night before. Stick to the beer, and don't let any of your companions overdo it.
If you don't mind transporting it, before you leave, pick up some Brugal or Barcelo rum at Jenny's, to take home as a souvenir.

Well my room has been reserved and my flight is booked. Now just the wait. LOL.
I took this past week and decided to read the entire thread of Blackbeards Resort on this forum. It was actually quite a good read and some really funny shit at times. LOL.
I wanted to thank everyone for your posts and responses it was a great help in deciding to come to BB for the first time. Like I said in my other post I have been to the DR several times but on the south end of the island. This will be my first trip to the north side. My day to day life is really busy and hectic so just looking for lots of lazy days, smoke some cigars, little freaky freaky, smoke some more and be bored. Little more freaky freaky. Hahaha.
Also looking forward to meeting some fellow mongers and maybe tagging along from time to time. This is usually the case anyway.
Being new and not being familiar with my surroundings I have decided to go safe use the BB shuttle and fork up the extra $10 for the taxi I figure what the hell it will not break the bank. My only concern is if immigration / customs take forever at the POP airport and the driver leaves me stranded like I read that happened to one guy. Also I will probably go ahead and make my first USD exchange at BB instead of Jenny's, again just because I am not familiar with the place. Unless someone arrives the same time I do and has been there before. I am hoping to make future exchanges at Jenny's once I am there during the week.
Honestly the only negative thing I read way back in the forum was when the one guy said he had some money stolen out of his safe in his room. That really surprised me. In all my travels I have never had this issue and never considered someone breaking into my safe. Additionally I always chica proof my room of course. But that made me think all kinds of shit like what kind of safes are there at Blackbeards. Combination, keyed Hmmmm. Anyway I am sure it is not an issue or others would have posted similar issues as well. Enough said! LOL.
Lastly regarding the shipmate prices I understand that the ST (1-2 Hrs) is now $2100 just as an example. 1.) Does it really last up to 2 hours? 2.) Should you really have to negotiate and or confirm that set price before you go to the room? Just wanted some clarification on that. 3.) Do you pay the Chica before the ST or after the ST? That was never stated either. Just curious because I do not want to get there and with my first Chica she tries to tell me it is more than 2100 after we finish!
I will also be posting my trip report upon my return in March as well.

I will also be posting my trip report upon my return in March as well.[/QUOTE]On the taxi, from the airport, I would not worry. Incoming Customs at POP are really not a problem at all. The only wild card is that a plane load of European tourists arrives at the same time, putting a mob of people in line with you. But hell, this is the DR, punctuality is not a law. I'd be surprised if the cabbie leaves you.
On money, I warn you that you will get a LOUSY exchange rate at the hotel. Do not change much money. Arriving by cab, you will pass through a gateway for Costambar, and just a few seconds down the road on your right is Jenny's. Hard to miss the only grocery store in sight. THAT is where you will get the best exchange rate. Either walk back later, after settling in, or just ask the cabbie to stop and wait (hell, you're paying for the ride). Once inside, just say "Quiero cambiar dinero. " (kee-yero cahmbyar dinero) and they'll direct you to the office in back. While there, buy yourself some bottles of water. (BB offers free coffee, but potable water is for sale).
Pay the girls AFTER your session.
I personally never had problems with the room safes. If you are really concerned, bring a small padlock (or two) and lock a small bag inside another locked suitcase. (Yes I KNOW someone could cut the bags, but there are reasonable limits). In theory, money could "disappear" from a safe, but with no signs of entry, it remains debatable. A damaged suitcase leaves no doubt, and I promise you, the cleaning ladies there are very unlikely to risk their income over a one time theft.
Again, I don't know the details of the other case, but I never had a problem with the room safes. (Any other veterans with room safe comments?

[/QUOTE]Do as you wish, but it would not be a problem. Costambar is a gated community. After the cab has slowed to go through the gate, Jenny's is a few yards further on your right-hand side.

I just got back Sunday from a week stay at BB. Jennys exchange rate which is the same as the banks, WU, etc. Was 50.2 p / On arrival at BB, you can pay in $ as it makes little difference. BB rate on check in is 50 p / but any cash exchanges or check out is 48 p / BB currently has the best roster I've seen there & I've been there for 7-8 years straight. Yes, ST is 2100 and TLN is 3500 p and you pay afterwards. If you want a full 2 hours specify it before taking a chica. They don't usually rush, but usually leave when you finish. Often times they will give you a nice massage afterwards too if you ask. I always bring my own lotion as well as lube and condoms. BBBJ is the norm at BB, sex is covered. Be sure to check out the beach nearby with all it's little restaurants, as well as Sol Mia nearby. I discovered a new restaurant just turn right of Sol Mia (coming from BB) about 1 block called Las Rocas. Excellent meals! Small menu, but imported steaks, best I've had in the DR for only 700 p. In my opinion standout chicas include China, Endi, Anise, Valeria, Yahaira, Naomi, Freshita, Karina,. If you need any meds, there is a pharmacy right across the street from Jennys where you can get Dick Meds, or antibiotics to bring back to the US. They have excellent prices there. & the lady speaks english. Info for others, former chica Hilda is the new mamasan. She and Krystal are now the 2 mamasans, & (both are available). If you need help picking a girl, they are there to help. There is also a chica book at the main desk you can ask for where they have pics and names of most of the chicas there. New day manager Robin is a blast and very helpful as is Nicco the night manager. They can't recommend chicas, but they can help answer any other questions. Have a fantastic trip.
Solid information for newbies to Barba Negra. Prices and specific chicas' names lay it all out for newbies. Great post.
[QUOTE=HuskerDude;2281748]ST is 2100 pesos and TLN is 3500 pesos[/QUOTE]The US dollar mid-rate is now 50.5. Ten years ago it was 30.5.
Ten years ago Barba Negra prices were 1300 short-time and 1800 all night.
That means their prices remain, as near as dammit, unchanged in dollar terms from ten years ago.
Very fair and sound business practice if you ask me.
Sosua free-lance prices vary a lot more but overall I think the same holds true. Unchanged on average from ten years ago.

I usually fly to Santiago, take a taxi and go to bus terminal. I catch Caribe tours bus for puerto plata for 150 pesos and in 1 hour I am in Puerto Plata. From bus terminal I take a taxi for 500 pesos.
Read my SDQ post, 1st time doing something like this so hence the detail. BB Day 2: So from the Caribe bus terminal in SD to PP. The bus is not to cold not to hot. They are playing some old cowboy movie with John Wayne on the bus TV LOL. So the bus makes some stops along the way, I just google Caribe bus stop Puerto Plata and made sure my GPS was showing me the right spot so I know where to get off. I arrive in Puerto Plata. It was a 3 HR 30 min drive. Not bad. Wish I bought some snacks tho. From the terminal I call an Uber, there was only 3 in Puerto Plata at the time (around 130 pm). So again I text the Uber driver, tell him in waiting at the bus stop and what I'm wearing and to honk when he arrives. He gets here. I put my stuff in the trunk and off to BB. So my Uber driver, Stanly, spoke a little English and I was talking to him about how its my first time here and shit. I told him Barba Negra and he's like "ohh yea, chicas" LOL guess he knew Whats up. When we arrive at the gate of Costambar they let him in, the gate security people seem to know him caz they were chatting a bit. I know the taxis inside Cosambar charge gringo prices so I ask Stanly if I paid him can he drive me to certain places in Puerto Plata. He's like yea. Sweet, I took his number down and I told him I'm contact him on Whatsapp to take me to Sosua and like the Metro cables tomorrow. He's like okay no problem. To Sosua he charged me 1000 pesos. To Metro cables 200 pesos. On the Uber app it said it was going to cost me from the front Costambar to Sosua about 700 pesos so I thought shit 1000 is not bad. Anyways we get to the entrance of BB.
The place is very open doors. Like no gates or nothing. I take my stuff out the trunk and say I'll contact him tomorrow. Now I'm walking in and I hear music playing and see some guys sitting in front of the bar drinking Presidentes and the Chicas who are sitting on the pool side seats next to the bar, some sitting across the bar, just all over the place. I see these hot looking girls just chilling. I walk in and ask one of the ladies where to check in, she says there's a reception table next to the billiards table. Go there and I meet the day time manager, Robin. He introduces himself to me and tells me that rooms not ready yet, maybe in half an hour. Ight np. I ask him if its possible to stay tomorrow too but he tells me no all the rooms are booked (its Saturday tmm). I pay him for my room. I got the Deluxe Single which was $60 USD but with tax and it came out to be $70 USD. I leave my luggage inside the reception room and Robin shows me around the place. I never been here so no clue about its layout. When its your first time you feel kinda uncomfortable, at least I did. Chica price short time: 2100 pesos, 1 cum, 1-2 hrs got to talk with chica about how long to stay. Long time is 3500 pesos and its from 9 pm to what's agreed upon by chica and you+mamasan. All night from 6 pm till the next day is 5500 pesos (it says 3 sessions, but that's too short IMO, probably should ask Chica how many nuts you want to be safe). Anyways after he shows me around, I just leave BB and go for a walk to see the beach. Costambar is pretty much empty / quite area. I've seen mainly old foreigners in here. The weather here is awesome. DR reminds me of my home country. Anyways get to the beach, its alright, there's a lot of seaweed here. Not a whole lot of people on the beach. I see people sitting in the small shop drinking beer. It's a very relaxed beach. Very windy. Not much vendors on this beach. I walk the strip and just take in the view. I see a tennis court there but no one was in it. There doesn't seem to be much to do around here, like activities wise and shit. I just walk and take in the view. Anyways I leave the beach and heard back to BB. Its around 230 pm. I ask if rooms ready, nope not yet. Okay I leave BB again. I go to walk around the neighborhood. I went to look for some of the restaurants that people mentioned on the forums. I went looking for Las Rocas. It find it but there's a lock on the entrance. I ask some old white guy I see if its open, he's like try the back. I go to the back and knock and its closed. Someone opens the door. I ask if they are open and they guy says "don't you see the lock in the front" I'm like yea but the old guy said to knock so I tried. The guys like yea we are closed, going to open at 5 pm. I'm like ight then I'll be back later. I find Pizzaria Solemio and Ricks Cafe which are both kinda near each other but they seem like they are closed. I'm thinking WTF is everything closed. I head back to BB. Room is still not ready. I ask if they are serving lunch and they are. So I go to the bar and I sit down and take a look at the menu. I sit next to a guy who I soon befriend whose name was Greg. I honestly forgot what I ordered. I'm sitting at the bar sipping on water (I don't drink alcohol) and just looking at the girls. My guy Greg is talking to the Chicas and he's having fun. Eventually me and him start to talk and introduce ourselves, we were both from the same State and nearby. He's been here many times and he knows like all the Chicas. He introduces the Chicas to me and one of the girls comes up and starts touching me all over and shit, asking if I want massage or "freaky freaky" LOL. I'm like I don't got a room yet, maybe later. Turns out couple of the people didn't have rooms yet. But I'm watching the girls talk with each other and dance and just sitting down eyeing people. Its actually amazing, that there are girls just dressed sexy and just waiting to be fucked LOL. There was a good amount of girls maybe 15-20 ish. They weren't all out at once, they kinda like rotate. Some leave to the back and then new ones come out. There were some hot chicas in BB. The really hot ones were already occupied with other guys. They had like every color / shape you can want. They had some sexy busty and fat ass Dominican to slender and big tits. No anorexic girls so if that's your thing, maybe go to Sosua. Anyways I get my food, eat and then leave again caz rooms not ready at 3 pm. I wanted to get some meds and exchange more money caz after I saw those chicas I'm like I want to fuck all of them LOL. So I start to make my way to Jenneys Supermarket. Again I see a lot of old white foreigners just doing their thing. I enter Jenneys and grab a big gallon of water, I'm tired of paying for a small bottle every time. I go to the register and ask the lady if they exchange money, she says yea and tells me to go to the back room. I go to the back and ask what's the rate. 1 USD=50.2 pesos. Okay, exchange 200 hundreds. I go across from Jenneys and get some meds from the pharmacy. The lady at the pharmacy speaks English. If you get meds, make sure you know the MG you want / need. I head back to BB and finally at 340 pm my room is ready.
I go up the stairs and notice there's another big bar up there but no ones there ATM. I go to my Deluxe room. Very nice room, huge bed, big TV with a good number of channels, bathroom is big as well. This was a great room. AC was perfect. No outside noise and shit. Bed was comfortable, towels were clean. Just overall BB was a very clean place. I settle in and decide I wanted to go to the pool. Quick rinse in the shower and head to the pool. I jump in and swim and look at the chicas and shit. I don't think they get in the water. Not sure if its their policy or W. E. I really wanted to one to come into the pool and fuck around LOL but that wasn't happening. I stay in the pool for like an hour just relaxing and at around 5 pm I see all these new Chicas come, this must be the shift change time. Holy shit the night time chicas are even hotter than the day time ones. I say fuck this and leave the pool and go up to shower and come back down so I can start making moves. I sit by the bar with my friend Greg and we're just talking, he's teasing the Chicas around. Since this is my first time doing some shit like this, Greg is trying to get me to out the shy zone and trying to hook me up with a chica. He ask what I like, I say I don't really have a preference as long as they got a nice face. I'm not sure how to approach this but I eventually start talking to them and getting the feel for things. I ask a couple of the girls if they do anal and everyone said no. The only one that did was Greg's girl but she's taken. Everyone is picking someone up and talking them and I'm just sitting here sipping on water LOL. But eventually this once chica start flashing her tits at me and I call her over. Her name was Bianca, think she was mid-late 20's but she had 2 kids. Anyway we talk, she doesn't speak English, and I ask her how much to stay for 2 hours and 2 milk, she says 3500 pesos. BB standard I guess. I was craving some so I had to make the move. I tell her my room number and she says okay I'll go get dressed and come. I go up to my hotel and wait for her. She comes in and says she going to shower. I didn't ask to shower with her, didn't think about it. She comes out naked with just towel around her waist. She has a pretty good body for someone with 2 kids. I shower after. I ask her to dictate the flow or get things started. So she turns on the TV and puts on the porn channel LOL. She's on the bed and starts kissing me and I do the same. Suck on her tits and soon after she gets the condom and puts it on and gives me a CBJ. She's sucking all over and it feels amazing. Soon after I go to DATY. I love to DATY so we did that for a while. After I went to fuck her and we did couple of different positions before I bust. We talk and shit and I get to connect with her a little more. We relax for a bit and I ask if she's ready for Round 2. Yea. Go for round 2 and I do pretty much the same stuff, make her cum from DATY and whatnot. I bust. She stays with me in bed for a while till the 2 hrs is up and I kiss her goodbye. She was great, didn't rush, did what I wanted. Sweet girl. I also got her Whatsapp.
After that I'm tired and hungry, its around 8 pm and I decide to go back outside an explore my food options and the beach again at night. I pull up to SoleMio and get a pizza. I wish they sold a slice caz that pizza serving was for like 2 people. I couldn't finish it. It was pretty much a pie LOL. It was good, lot of cheese, not like the NY ones who cheaps out on cheese. I took the rest to go. Back to BB. It's fucking lit in there, they got some fire songs playing, chicas dancing and shit, cool vibe right now. Maybe I just got over my nerves and can enjoy the atmosphere / environment. Its around 9 pm and people are just relaxing and having fun, think my man Greg is still going to town on the chica (s) he took up LOL. I'm sitting around enjoying myself but soon had to go back up to plan for my next day. I hit up Stanly and ask if he can still take me to Sosua tmm. He says yea. Do some research on Sosua and places to hit. Wi-Fi in BB was good. Soon I start hearing some loud ass music, where the fuck is it coming from? Turns out the top floor bar is now open. Its lit, they got chicas in sexy clothing dancing and shit. I see Bianca there drinking. Some chincas come up to me and ask if I want to fuck and shit, I'm like "no mas lecche". That disco or w. E its called was really cool, bunch of hot chicas. Soon after around 1030 I see this chica with big tits and I just get a full blow hard on seeing that and I call her over. Ask what's her name, she said Mcdonald, I ask her if she can stay for 1 hour till 1130 because I thought they go home after 11, she said sure I can. I'm like sweet, come to my room. She said give me a min and we go. I went to my room and realized I needed some new towels caz Bianca and I used up the ones that were available. I go downstairs to the reception and ring the bell but no one comes out. I then see a sign that says something like after 9 pm (or maybe 8 pm) that maid service and towels are not available. I'm not too sure what it said TBH But I couldn't get new towels, so I had to use the pair I bought. She comes to my room and she looks a little older than 26, she had blond hair and I guess in the dark she looked hotter. Anyways this time I wanted to shower with a chica so I ask her and she says sure. She takes her clothes off and her ass is nice and firm, pretty fat. We go in the shower and she see's my cock hard as a rock and she's like grinding on it between her cheeks and giving me a HJ. We mess around a bit in the shower and then dry off. I ask her if she wants the TV on or any songs, she tells me to play Romeo Santos-Imitadora. Side note, this guys voice probably makes girls cum. Get on the bed and she starts giving me a BBBJ, dam she can suck, she starts doing some different tongue motions and shit. After a while I go to DATY and she seemed to have loved it. On goes the condom and we get to fucking and I'm just playing with her big tits, which were fake BTW. McDonald's riding me so hard and I'm loving it (no pun intended). Its been like 20 min and no bust, I'm like hmm that's weird. I know I had two nuts before but I should have more, I'm only in my mid 20's! I'm hard but no cum. She rests for a but and say's "me no good?" I tell her No its not you it's me, I already had two leeches before this like 2 HR ago. We go back to fucking and still no nut, so I tell her to stop and just stay in the bed with me while I use my hand. I finally bust and she licks me clean. I still have like 20 min with her but it was getting late and I didn't want her to get home late. Which reminds me do these girls live on site in BB or do they go back to some place in Puerto Plata? Anyways she kisses me goodbye and that's my night. I clean up and go to sleep.
I wake up all happy and relaxed. Great sleep. Get towels and go shower and get breakfast. No girls are there early morning. I think they started coming in at like 930-10 am ish. I still have couple hours left but after yesterday night, I'm not looking for any early action, I want to do some activities. So I hit up Stanly and ask if he can come take me to the metro cables. He says yea. So I tell him to let me know when he's here. I go walk around. Stanly comes late due to traffic and takes me to the Metro cables and I take some pictures. It was really cool, wish I could have gone explore the top more but I was running late and had to leave to BB as check out was at 1 pm and it was already almost 1 pm. I call BB just to let them know I may be a little late checking out caz I'm at the Cables, Robin says no problem. Stanly drives me back to BB at like 130 pm and I checkout. I got charged 400 pesos, I did not ask why probably caz of the late check out. Make my way to Sosua.
So that's my 1 day full BB stay report. It was honestly awesome and I wish I could have stayed an extra day. BB is definitely the place to go to if your new to this whole thing and want to get your feet wet. When I went to Sosua, I was really glad I went to BB first to get a feel for the girls / people / environment that I will be interacting with. The girls in BB were fucking hot. Like better than a lot of the Sosua girls. And they did not play games and gave good service. They were not aggressive or pushy. Price was reasonable. The only thing about BB is that activities wise, not much to do unless you rent a car and go to Puerto Plata or you pay the taxi extortion fees LOL. If BB had more things to do for a reasonable price I would consider staying longer. I will definitely be back to BB next time, it was an amazing experience.
[QUOTE=NahkMD;2293051]Read my SDQ post, 1st time doing something like this so hence the detail. BB Day 2: So from the Caribe bus terminal in SD to PP. The bus is not to cold not to hot. They are playing some old cowboy movie with John Wayne on the bus TV LOL. So the bus makes some stops along the way, I just google Caribe bus stop Puerto Plata and made sure my GPS was showing me the right spot so I know where to get off. I arrive in Puerto Plata. It was a 3 HR 30 min drive. Not bad. Wish I bought some snacks tho. From the terminal I call an Uber, there was only 3 in Puerto Plata at the time (around 130 pm). So again I text the Uber driver, tell him in waiting at the bus stop and what I'm wearing and to honk when he arrives. He gets here. I put my stuff in the trunk and off to BB. So my Uber driver, Stanly, spoke a little English and I was talking to him about how its my first time here and shit. I told him Barba Negra and he's like "ohh yea, chicas" LOL guess he knew Whats up. When we arrive at the gate of Costambar they let him in, the gate security people seem to know him caz they were chatting a bit. I know the taxis inside Cosambar charge gringo prices so I ask Stanly if I paid him can he drive me to certain places in Puerto Plata. He's like yea. Sweet, I took his number down and I told him I'm contact him on Whatsapp to take me to Sosua and like the Metro cables tomorrow. He's like okay no problem. To Sosua he charged me 1000 pesos. To Metro cables 200 pesos. On the Uber app it said it was going to cost me from the front Costambar to Sosua about 700 pesos so I thought shit 1000 is not bad. Anyways we get to the entrance of BB.[/QUOTE]Thanks for your report. Good to see the first impressions of a new visitor.
Regarding activities (if you really need outside activities) if one goes through the desk, BB can connect you with activities of different kinds run by excursion companies.

Much thanks to the reviews and guidance from those who plowed this path before. My observations from 2 weeks at BB.
1. Airport: POP is a small and easy airport. The 50 DOP / USD exchange rate makes transactions bilingually fluent. In fact, at the Bar Room where I had lunch, they were short on DOP and had to provide change in USD. Didn't touch the exchange booths at the airport. True anywhere you can do better on rates if you can hold off.
2. Transit: credit to Colbert1 for recommending Nexus Tours. 22 USD roundtrip. I had plenty of what-ifs running through my head but everything was smooth as can be. Both shuttles were well AC'd. 3 others on the shuttle going, me solo coming back so very comfortable. Out of the airport, it was even easier than looking for a guy in in orange shirt at the airport since they had a booth right outside the doors. My flight was delayed 2 hours but they didn't blink an eye. Greeter spoke great English. On the return, the driver was 10 minutes early and pick-up was directly in front of BB. The only hassle didn't have to do with Nexus Tours but figuring out how to use the phone card + BB house phone to confirm the reservation 24 hours ahead of my departure. Fortunately, the staff helped me on punching in the phone card procedures. Never had to touch a taxi.
3. Rooms: I went for the deluxe single. Comfortable. Big bed. Sure an occasional insect scurrying across the floor, but adjusted for expectations, nice set-up. Hot water takes a minute to work, but all's good. In-room safe felt secure. Not a lot of drawers for clothes, but I travel light. A minor thing is the mini fridge they have in the room roars to life occasionally disrupting sleep. Easily solved by unplugging the thing.
4. Pool & hot tub: plenty of lounge chairs to catch some sun without having to deal with the lounge chair renters on the beach. Didn't touch the pool or hot tub. Although the idea of the hot tub being a free for all makes me cringe at the idea of soaking in there.
5. Beach: nice span of beach. Every day plenty of people but not crowded. A number of restaurants and bars littered across the beach.
6. Restaurants: almost every restaurant's menu is standard fare burgers, pizza, pasta, and stuff you'd find an in American restaurant. Multiple people have recommended Pascuals, which I enjoyed. Only a couple of times have I seen Dominican specific dishes. Prices are probably on par with your average suburban restaurant in the US.
7. BB: nice set-up. Great people. Casual. Meals here are convenient and prices on par or slightly higher than outside. As expected, convenience items are more expensive. 150 DOP of generic Cialis can be bought for 100 DOP are the pharmacy, 100 DOP for a Gatorade is 50 DOP at Jenny's etc. A bottle of water here costs more than a gallon at Jenny's. Etc. Standard convenience premium.
8. Jenny's: nice stroll towards the gates. Has everything I needed. Exchange rate was a 50.20 DOP / USD throughout my stay. There's a bit of a side hustle for excursions into the city which I didn't delve too much into.
9. Los Mangos golf course: didn't partake in the golf, but did use their gym every day. 2 working treadmills that need some waxing and adjustments. Half a dozen circuit machines. 4 spinning bikes. A yoga studio. (surprisingly) flat / include bench press, but no squat rack. Mini pool outside. Always just walked in never accosted. Although occasionally there's a dude sitting in the front that looks like he's there to check ID.
10. Girls: wide selection, although pretty much the same ones every day. Some cluster and just chat amongst themselves, others are more proactive. I prefer smaller frames and enjoyed Kathy & Frescita & Celeste, also Rosie, China. Experiences are all pretty standard. BBBJ, CFS, massage if I ask for it. I didn't really have any unique tastes, but the mamasans would have been a good resource. Apparently the girls had to fill out a form upon joining that indicates their dos / don'ts and the mamasan would be the most direct way to access that knowledge. The book is only a book of photos, not of profiles.
11. Costambar: very safe. Walking all over at all points in the day. Compared with Thailand and Philippines, surprised at seeing zero panhandlers. And even the people selling stuff on the beach aren't that pushy. A couple of clusters of young adults that seem to be vacationing with family, but most of those around look quite elderly. BB feels more like an island of adult fun in a sea of a normal retirement beach place, vs. In Angeles it's everywhere. Makes me wonder if people there know about the operations at BB.
Overall, I had a great time. I'm the type to get into a routine to relax. Every day: gym, beach, food, etc. With the girls just being one part of it. Would recommend.

Being that I work for my company from home, I'm thinking of doing a week at Blackbeards, without my company knowing that I left the country. When I did Blackbeards back in 2009, I also tried something similar, but the problem was that the wifi at Blackbeards was only decent when I sat outside my room. In my room, it was horrible due to the brick walls. For the telephone, I used magicjack back then, but that depended on the internet, so since I had to sit outside and outside had a lot of noise, well let's just say things didn't go well. People being heard speaking spanish in the background is a little suspicious, right? So for 2019, can someone please give their opinion on the wifi and if it works well within the room? I really need to work within a quiet room, then have a lot of fun with the girls at night. Also any suggestion concerning the phone, where I don't have to depend on the wifi, but the price for the call will still be low calling the Usa from DR?
Thanks for your help!

Thanks for your help![/QUOTE]WIFI has improved at BB. I was recently there in late Jan. I suggest the the rooms in the main building or before,5 as the router is just outside the room there on the 2nd floor.
However, you WILL have a few interruptions in service every day, some will last a few minutes, others a few hours. Local sim card with 4 g is a must in your case. Data package are reasonably priced in DR.

I am planning to visit June 1st week. BB sold out for few days and searching similar one around. Please share if you know similar to BB.

[QUOTE=Ks345;2311767]I am planning to visit June 1st week. BB sold out for few days and searching similar one around. Please share if you know similar to BB.[/QUOTE]A few options. On the other side of Puerto Plata, across from the Playa Dorada resort complex, is OASIS, formerly Field of Dreams. Recent reports say that the quality for the cost is poor in all categories. But girls are available. Might suffice for a couple of days.
Contact BB and ask if they have any recommendations for "overflow" for a couple of days.
once found an AIR BNB option available in Costambar. Look it up. Condos in Costambar for rent. You could hang at BBs, and get "take out" to your rented apartment for a small fee.
Big thanks to all posters for trip reports and advice for optimizing a visit to BB. I just booked 10 days there In July and expect to have a blast (or 10).
I don't have a subscription yet (two CC's were declined. Probably my banks fearing non-US charges) but I will find a way to get subscribed sometime in June. Figure it's a good idea in case someone wants to pm me or I need to pm someone about the finer points of planning my trip.
I have stayed at BB on 2 ocassions. I will never go back. 10 days would be torture. IMHO the girls were ok nothing spectacular. On average 10 to 20 girls a shift. You have to wait for the 3 or 4 stars. There is no excitement because the girls do the same waiting game 365 days a year. After 3 days you will have seen all the girls and eaten all good meals they have. The high point is it is a controlled enviroment so you will not be scammed. The pricing is fixed and fair. The food is decent. The negatives: most of the girls are ok but you are in competition with the other guests for the real winners. After a few days you will have fully explored the menu for girls and food. Once I went to Sosua and saw abou 300 girls and scores of places to eat I was done with BB. You do have to be on the watchout for the bad chicas but they are few and easy to spot most often. In truth it fills more like you are hunting and being hunted. Big fun for me. I will bet the house you are going to be bored to death after 3 days in BB. Let me say for some guys BB is the perfect place. If you are socially challenged or not comfortable approaching women BB is a God send. However if you got any game left in you check out Sosua for day.

I don't have a subscription yet (two CC's were declined. Probably my banks fearing non-US charges) but I will find a way to get subscribed sometime in June. Figure it's a good idea in case someone wants to pm me or I need to pm someone about the finer points of planning my trip.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=OldKool;2315648]I have stayed at BB on 2 ocassions. I will never go back. 10 days would be torture. IMHO the girls were ok nothing spectacular. On average 10 to 20 girls a shift. You have to wait for the 3 or 4 stars. There is no excitement because the girls do the same waiting game 365 days a year. After 3 days you will have seen all the girls and eaten all good meals they have. The high point is it is a controlled enviroment so you will not be scammed. The pricing is fixed and fair. The food is decent. The negatives: most of the girls are ok but you are in competition with the other guests for the real winners. After a few days you will have fully explored the menu for girls and food. Once I went to Sosua and saw abou 300 girls and scores of places to eat I was done with BB. You do have to be on the watchout for the bad chicas but they are few and easy to spot most often. In truth it fills more like you are hunting and being hunted. Big fun for me. I will bet the house you are going to be bored to death after 3 days in BB. Let me say for some guys BB is the perfect place. If you are socially challenged or not comfortable approaching women BB is a God send. However if you got any game left in you check out Sosua for day.[/QUOTE]I think a lot of guys use BB as a base and venture out from there. I've seen guys who are staying long term go out on golf trips or cigar factory and tobacco farm touring and other things and come back at night to party with the girls.
Also, they sometimes bring in their own girls; you don't have to only choose BB girls.
Then again, some guys stay at BB during the week (when it is slow in Sosua) then go to Sosua Friday and Saturday then return to spend the weeknights at BB.
Everybody does it differently.

Thanks for the ideas and feedback. I have scheduled 3 or 4 open days for possible trips into Sousa. I don't mind the 'seek and acquire' process as it seems similar to other mongering locations like Tijuana's Zona Norte and Singapore's Orchid Towers. But I wonder if it's practical to bring a girl back to BB with me since it looks like a 45-minute taxi ride. Are there short term or low cost rooms available in Sousa I can rent as needed (maybe for 3-5 hours)?
I suppose I could bring a girl back to BB for an overnight, but that seems more risky and problematic.
Finally, is there a Chica "market" in nearby Puerto Plata? Maybe a smaller version of Sousa?

If you have only a short time for a vacation, or lack the patience to spend time finding the "fish" you want, BB is a good choice.
Any questions about quality of girls can be answered by checking out their newsletter, or contacting them to have some photos sent to you. Decide for yourself.
My experience with Sosua was the opposite of the one described. Looking here, looking there, different bars, up and down the streets. Approaching one, transport or stroll back to the hotel, Rinse / Repeat.
I always found the variety of girls at BB to be acceptable. Easy to arrange any 3 somes, or "Happy Hours" and sessions in the Jacuzzi. The room is also just yards away, not down the block.
There are benefits and drawbacks to both, but in the end, everyone has to find what pleases THEM.
Good luck.
[QUOTE=OldKool;2315648]I have stayed at BB on 2 ocassions. I will never go back. 10 days would be torture. IMHO the girls were ok nothing spectacular..[/QUOTE]Two days at BB was enough. That was ten years ago though. My two days there was a mixed bag. I had a dark chica that fucked me like it was our honeymoon. I went out that night to PP and did not pick up any chica because I thought they were avail in BB all night. To my surprise, the place was shut down like a max security prison! I had to have the guard call me a chica, and luckily one came for me. The next day was the bikini contest, which was great, and some New York guys threw a party for all chicas in the penthouse, which I happily attended. It was a blast. The girl I picked had a nice body, but she refused to take off her top to show me those big tits! I could have made a big deal, but I don't like drama.
I found the Sosua women to be a bit hardcore, and preferred the Haitian sweetness. I would go back to both places because its been so long ago.
I'm booked for 10 days at BB in July. Yay!
My Spanish skills are limited to Mexican fast food items and just enough dialog to get a Chica into one of the rooms at Adelitas in Tijuana for an hour. I going to work on this with whatever free trainers I can find on the internet / YouTube, but I'm also looking at buying a translator device like a Pocketalk ([URL]https://www.pocketalk.net/[/URL]). This is separate from my phone (where I assume I can use Google Translator app) and it uses WiFi, mobile data or a hot spot to connect to the internet. It's a bit pricey (300 USD), so I'm wondering if it's worth the expense. Plus I'm wondering how awkward it would be to have my negotiation discussion / requests blast out from the speaker, or do I just use the display screen?
Anyone have experience with one of these? There are two or three other devices on the market as well. The other one I've looked at closely has two Bluetooth ear buds; one for me and one for the other person. That model seems better for (sort of) privacy. But will a Chica want to stick something in her ear that was handed to her by a Gringo?
Appreciate any feedback on these or other tips for managing language issues.

I would give you something to interact with. Use the device for backup as needed. Check out Youtube for a lot of free language courses online. For help with the X rated phrases, check back with the boards for free coaching.
Good luck (Buena Suerte).

You can just put your phone on airplane mode the whole time and use WIFI connection to use google translator on your phone or some other app. Most of the girls at BB speak enough english to get by to communicate with you. If not you can always get another guy or chica to translate for you. Mamasans will be more than happy to help you with anything. Have a fantastic time there.

There are usually a few Chicas that speak passable English if you want to have some conversation. I have a fee app on the Iphone called ITranslate that seems to work OK.
Using translators are good if you are staying at Blackbeards, but between the chicas who speak both Spanish and English, who can translate for you, the hotel staff who are bilingual, and other mongers who can also serve this purpose I am sure that you are not going to have any problems at the hotel. You can even email Blackbeards about this but the times I've been there, even without me using Spanish, it wasn't too hard communicating. There is always someone who is bilingual, on site. I hope my advice helps.

I am, perhaps needlessly so, a bit hesitant to ask a third party to relate some of my more personal preferences to the Chica about things like oral, DATY and some LIGHT Dom / Sub or DDLG play. Should I not worry about being embarrassed and perceived as an old, creepy pervert? I am already planning on talking to the Mamasan when I first meet her about my preferred type of women and even tipping her a few hundred (maybe up to 1,000?) pesos for helping me find my best matches.
How do others navigate through these more "sensitive" conversations?
Thank as always for advice and insights.
[QUOTE=MrHappyKat;2318733]Should I not worry about being embarrassed and perceived as an old, creepy pervert?[/QUOTE]Hell no. Glory in it. You are obviously unaware that the DOM in Dominican Republic stands for "Dirty Old Man".
Unless you carry a stuffed baby marmoset, an 18th century footman's tunic and a bicycle pump in your suitcase, you are unlikely to suggest any activity the chicas, and especially the mamasans, have not heard of, and in most cases experienced, many times before. What makes you think you are so special?
Seriously, anything which does not cause them appreciable pain or discomfort, or is a health risk, or wil spoil their hair or clothes, is do-able. That's their job.
Just download offline packages in Google Translate app and you'll be able to use it when wi-fi is down. Any speech recognition app would not work very well as most chicas speak in Dominican Spanish with the usage of colloquial and slang and you would have poor results quite often, stick to keyboard use. A few years ago Spanish Sex phrasebook used to be available for borrowing at the reception.
You should not worry about being embarrassed and perceived as an old, creepy pervert. Any chica after a few months in BB probably have heard and done things that would make you blush LOL. Think about mamasans as doctors, just tell them what you need, they've seen it all. You may want to print out a few of your preferences WITH DEFINITIONS in Spanish to avoid misunderstanding.
Before I learned enough Spanish, Google Translate and Sex phrasebook helped a lot.

Wanted to say thank you to all that have helped and reported about your time at Blackbeards. With all the info you have provided you have convinced me to check this place out! This will be my first trip to the DR and will be staying for 4 days starting July 4th! Thanks again for all the info you have all provided.
MrHappyKat: If our times match up lets grab a beer and at least have another newbie at our side to help each other out LOL.

Again my thanks for all the advice! I've also been looking at many of the general travel bloggers on YouTube who post vids about life, vacations, and living in DR, especially the north coast. This has really helped me get a good idea of local culture, and how to get around town and interact with local businesses safely and cheaply. Most importantly, they helped my understand the typical scams and risks to avoid while visiting the area.
Cloud420,
Love the idea of grabbing a beer while chasing the Chica's! Unfortunately, I won't arrive until July 11th. So I think I'm going to miss you by about 3 days. But I'm open to some quality hang time with anyone else here who may be around when I am. Also, thanks for the tip about Duolingo. I'll check it out!

And I doubt you'll find that in your digital translator. FYI, some are easy, ORAL SEX = SEXO ORAL. A 3-some at BB is called a "Happy Hour. " (Ask for those who do it, find one you like, then let her pick the 3rd. Things will go MUCH better).
Hell, I have no experience with the DOM stuff myself, so I have no idea what they call it!

If you feel she's really done you a service, 50 pesos or a dollar is a nice gesture.
I used to tip the maids about 5 dollars in the morning, so they cleaned my room first, and it was ready when I got back from breakfast.
Happy Hour is a type of threesome when chicas only ''taking care'' of you. If you want them to interact with each other you would have to pay an extra 300 or 400 pesos to each.

On the other hand, if you select a third that has no chemistry with the other girl, it can be a pretty mechanical, unenthusiastic session.
It occasionally happens that the third selected has a "thing" with the other chica, and they enjoy the session with each other as well as you.

Second, if you follow the previous advice (let the chica pick the 3rd) you will have 2 chicas that are already inclined to play with each other as well as you. I know guys who have had 3 somes there with 2 chicas that were "friends" in private. A flat-out show, will of course, demand the extra money.
For 2500 pesos, I would expect that to be the ST (1-3 hours).

It comes out twice a month & has up to date pics of the chicas there taken within the 2 week time frame. The prices are the minimum set prices & you can give them a little extra for good service.
Wondering about how safe my laptop and other valuables will be in the room at BB. I get that I should never leave a laptop or phone sitting on a bar counter, unattended. But what about in my room? Pretty sure it won't fit in the room safe where I'll be leaving my extra cash, wallet and passport.
Any tips for this?
Thanks.

Thanks.[/QUOTE]Your probably not going to have any problems at BB's. That being said, I usually travel with a chain lock and lock the laptop, and anything that won't fit in the safe in the closet. Unfortunately, the closets don't always have working hardware, or it's not possible to lock. I keep a small lock so I can lock up items in my luggage if needed. I mostly do this since I usually stop a few days in Sosua.
So on BB's website it says that they have a masseuse during the day. Is this done in room and does she offer any 'extras'?
I know I could just get one of the regular chicas to give me a massage but having it done by a trained expert followed up by BBBJ would be awesome. She doesn't even have to look that good, LOL!

Why go through the trouble of paying for the schooling and certification if you are still going to do what those with no marketable skills are doing.[/QUOTE]I don't know, I'll have to ask the one I see here in the US. She's a CMT that gives a great clinical massage before transitioning to B2B followed with BBBJ. I always feel relaxed after that, albeit $300 poorer!
And $DR1500 is a lot more than $DR500 and given that BB's is an adult resort I wouldn't be surprised.
[QUOTE=TooJaded;2321763] Is this done in room and does she offer any 'extras'?[/QUOTE]No. It's not done in room and she doesn't offer extras. They make it clear when you book the massage that this is the case.
Other's have mentioned bringing their own oil and getting a massage from their chica. I never tried that myself. Maybe the mamasans can recommend someone.
[QUOTE=TooJaded;2321763]So on BB's website it says that they have a masseuse during the day. Is this done in room and does she offer any 'extras'?
I know I could just get one of the regular chicas to give me a massage but having it done by a trained expert followed up by BBBJ would be awesome. She doesn't even have to look that good, LOL![/QUOTE]No, the masseuse at BB's does not offer "extras" and the massages are offered in a separate room not in your hotel room.
Que pena! Thanks for the info.

Likewise, she offered manicures, pedicures for the same reason.
Regarding your local masseuse, I presume having a certificate gives her something to wave at law enforcement, to prove she is "legit. ".
[QUOTE=Manizales911;2321852]No, the masseuse at BB's does not offer "extras" and the massages are offered in a separate room not in your hotel room.[/QUOTE]Yes, the masseuse at BB is named Maddie, been there for years now and everything is legit. No extras. Her office is right across from the office. You must pay at the office. I think it was 500 p / half hour. Her massage to me is just OK, nothing speciall. She also does manicures and pedicures like mentioned. One of the more popular.
Chicas on site at BB named China (She has an oriental look, but is not oriental), speaks english and gives a fantastic massage.

So the girl you described was already a hooker and went to get certified in massage so she could conduct her hooker business under the guise of massage therapy. In poorer countries mfs are looking for something better to do so they won't have to sell sex.
Does anybody have experience renting a car for a week to go to BB and Sosua?
[QUOTE=Friendlyfellow;2327383]Does anybody have experience renting a car for a week to go to BB and Sosua?[/QUOTE]From where? New York?
I remember many years ago when I was staying at Harbor View, one of the guys said he was from Canada, and a chica asked him how long it took to drive down.
[QUOTE=Friendlyfellow;2327383]Does anybody have experience renting a car for a week to go to BB and Sosua?[/QUOTE]I rented a car last January in Sosua to drive around the island. There are plenty of rent a car places around.
[QUOTE=Friendlyfellow;2327383]Does anybody have experience renting a car for a week to go to BB and Sosua?[/QUOTE]From what I've seen on various travel blogs about DR, the rental staff will not hesitate to try to rip you off by claiming you are responsible for all kinds of damage to the car, whether you caused it or not. So when the clerk hands you the keys, take him / her with you and do a full walk around of the car taking pics and video from all angles to document all body damage, paint scratches, damaged tires, cracks in windows, etc. Point out each flaw on the video and ask the clerk to acknowledge that it's there. Don't sign the rental form (or hand over your credit card if possible) until you have verified and documented the car's condition.
Also, don't' be surprised if you are driving on a road or highway and a local LE officer pulls you over or stops you at an intersection. They are looking for a bribe and will either suggest you violated some traffic law or just tell you they need money for gas (dinero para gasolina). My advice: pay it and smile. It's probably not going to be more than 1,000 to 2,000 DOP ($10 to $20 USD). Sure you can take the righteous path and refuse. But do you really want to be arrested and tried by a corrupt legal system in a country with a corrupt government?
[QUOTE=Friendlyfellow;2327383]Does anybody have experience renting a car for a week to go to BB and Sosua?[/QUOTE]I've done it many times, what do you want to know? Do you have experience driving in a third world country? Do you speak spanish?
[QUOTE=Friendlyfellow;2327383]Does anybody have experience renting a car for a week to go to BB and Sosua?[/QUOTE]You have a few replies. Here's my two cents.
I personally rent only from national rental chains. I have had good experiences with Budget at the POP airport. I had a small accident, started the paperwork at the airport, completed the process in the US, with the national level Budget people. My credit card insurance covered everything. I doubt it would have been so smooth with a local Dominican company.
Spanish would be very useful at all levels.
If you aren't accustomed to Third World driving, be very alert, and drive defensively. DR drivers, particularly on the motoconchos have a suicidal disregard for cars around them that is infuriating.
They dart in and out, get too close, and drive on all sides, like buzzing mosquitoes.
Years ago, I was paused in the left lane, left turn signal on, waiting for oncoming traffic to pass. When it was clear, I started my turn, only to have a motoconcho slam into my door at an angle, tearing off the mirror on the door. The idiot was driving down the center of the road, oblivious of my obvious attention to make a turn in front of him.
A long story I have told before; will spare you the rest right now. But it illustrates my point.
Gentlemen (yeah, you).
Am considering visiting BB after a while away. I am not familiar with the current generation of chicas at BB.
Has anyone had any recent Happy Hours (3-somes) recently, and some names they could recommend? Any information on special skills, etc, would be appreciated.
You can post replies here, or PM me, if you're too shy.
Muchas gracias.

Hello group,
So I've been searching past posts and can't find an answer to this. I'm hoping those who have deep and current experience at BB can help me, please.
If I bring fresh test results (like the day before I fly to DR) with me from a US lab, is there a potential to find a provider who will allow BBFS? Perhaps for a small propina? Perhaps if I ask the mamasan for "help" finding what I want?
Alternatively, I'll have time to get tested at a local lab, say the same one used by ladies?
If you don't' feel comfortable discussing openly here, I'd appreciate PM's as well.
Thank you.

You won't find anyone to do with the hotel that will condone unprotected sex. However, you may be able to convince a chica, probably with extra money as incentive.
That said, you are taking unnecessary risks for a little short term pleasure.
Aside from the obvious HIV risks, there is also a long list of STDs that YOU might want protection from. Chlamydia, herpes, for example.

I'm booked for 10 days in early July (10th - 21st). Please PM me if you will be there and want to grab a suitable adult beverage or want to explore buddying up for some of the excursions like dune buggies or deep sea fishing.
Thanks to everyone for all the valuable information provided in this forum. It has been very helpful for me as a person new to all of this.
I am coming for the first time to DR / Blackbeards late this summer. This is my first time doing anything like this! My Spanish is limited to basic phrases such as greetings, introductions, etc. If anyone will be around during this timeframe, I would love to meet up.

Welcome to the board, to the DR, and to Puerto Plata (City of God).
I was in exactly the same position as you fourteen years ago. Had never done anything like that before. It was while I was waiting to check in at Blackbeards and I felt my balls being fondled from behind that I realized I was no longer in Kansas. And the fun has not stopped since. I hope it leads to great things for you.
You have three months to work on your Spanish. Concentrate on the numerals and prices. Start thinking in RD $.
If you want a change of scenery one day, arrange to meet me for a drink on the Malecon (sea-front) in Puerto Plata city.
Seeing a lot of cable news coverage of the woman and couple who recently died at resorts in DR under "vague" circumstances this week. It's somewhat disturbing that all three deaths occurred at properties owned by one company. Add to that the report a week or so earlier of a woman being jumped, beaten and left for dead at another resort, possibly by an unidentified staff member. I'm not surprised by the less than enthusiastic efforts by local authorities. As I understand it, that's just business as usual for the DR's government and LE organizations.
So I'm wondering what the fuck is going on?
I'm booked for BB in July and from all research I've seen, I'm fairly comfortable I'll be relatively safe within the property. But I do plan on some adventures in nearby areas like Puerto Plata and Sosua, as well as some of the tourist attractions like dune buggies and others.
So, my question for the vets here: What did these people do to irritate some presumably nasty locals? And what do I need to do (or not do) to avoid waking up dead in my room with fluid on my lungs?

It could be random, targeted, accidental and / or just general crime. The USA media is playing it up, of course.
The thing to remember is that for every tragedy or assault there are 1,000 people who just had a regular vacation. Unless you do something stupid like punch a local or wear a diamond necklace you are probably going to be just fine.

Night security keeps watch to prevent anyone wandering in, theft, etc. The incident with the couple is being investigated, and possible use of drugs / meds after heavy drinking is being looked at. Fluid in lungs? A cinch that they weren't attacked. Costambar is a quiet area. Daylight is zero problem, always spent my nights at the BB compound, no interest in wandering around outside in the dark.
Of course, always be aware of surroundings anywhere. Tourists in a poor country at night are bound to tempt someone. Common sense. Avoid dark isolated areas walking alone, etc, etc.

I am nearly 80. I never could fight and I can no longer run. I walk alone round most of Puerto Plata by day and night (though not past midnight) in tourist areas and also areas where tourists are never seen, and I have never been or felt threatened. However, I do not get drunk, nor do I mouth off deliberately loudly about how I come from a superior race or society to the locals. If you do either of those things, all bets are off.
The deaths you have read about have nothing to do with your situation. They may be suicide pacts, natural causes, domestic disputes or blackmail scams, but they are not random attacks on single male mongers. In fact I cannot remember such a case in the eleven years I have lived here, although my memory is admittedly not what it was.

I'm really not that worried, CP. Just wanted to double check in case I missed some nuance of appropriate tourist behavior. I also don't get drunk, and I'm a generally friendly type. Plus I'm aware of the culture there that generally says "Don't be a rich asshole".
Having said all that, I am still taking certain precautions I normally wouldn't do when travelling outside the US. I'll use a laptop lock, and store my laptop out of sight when not in my room. I have a throw down wallet I don't mind giving up in case I do get my ass somewhere it shouldn't be and find myself looking at the wrong end of a weapon. I'll acquire and use small bills, won't wear expensive jewelry or watches, and I'm working on my Spanish every day. Thank you, Duolingo! I'm planning on bringing a decent camera, but it's pocket sized so I won't be lugging a camera case or bag around.
Should be a great experience. I'm not going to let the usual media hype freak me out. But I will check in with this group to ensure I am properly calibrated when unusual events do happen. So all of your replies are very much appreciated.

That doesn't mean "locals" are culpable, it just means if they are, someone else will need to prove it.
Bottom line for me, I'm going in July and I expect to fuck my brains out, multiple times. I'll not take stupid risks and I will take reasonable precautions. Just like when I travel anywhere. I've been to 29 countries and the worst experiences I've had were seeing my ATM card stolen in Tijuana, and literally running away from Russian mobsters at a London strip club in Piccadilly Circle, jumping into a taxi and seeing a cricket bat hit the back window as we drove away (but that's a story for another board).
I was just looking through some of the pics in the BB board (so nice to be a subscriber!) and find myself wondering what the local custom is, especially with the Chicas who frequent BB, with "hedge trimming" and "Southern Maintenance."
Should I expect to see some fairly high brush, modestly mowed lawns, or bare landscapes? Obviously there will be variation from Chica to Chica, but what's the general trend, please?
Thanks as always for any insights.

Death in Sosua probably linked over exertion and weak heart. Could not keep up with sexy young girls LOL. While food safety is suspect in many venues overall do not cause death. Most likely stomach upset with associated diarrhea which will clear itself in couple of days. There are no reports of any deaths in BB. When you travel to other countries there is always a risk. With our hobby more so. Take it easy if there are health issues. You should be fine.

Appreciate all the good advice from all of you about BB. I'm booked and confirmed for July 11 through July 21.
If any of you will be at BB during my stay, please PM me. I'll be happy to buy the 1st round (of drinks, not Chica's LOL).
BB is ok but 3 days is all I could take before I was bored to tears. 15 to 20 girls 3 or 4 are real hot but you are in que waiting your turn for the top girls. It is a very small pond. If possible schedule 3 or 4 days. Go look at Sosua and other areas or you to will be bored. If bb was all there was in the DR 10 days ok but Sosua has 2 or 3 hundred girls. You have to be able to walk and chew gum to have fun but most guys can. I have met guys who need o be at BB. No social skills very unattractive then BB is your go to. However if you are a normal guy you will enjoy Sosua variety in women , places to eat and things to do ,beaches clubs. Good luck. You are going to have more sex in 1 week then most guys have in a year.
[QUOTE=MrHappyKat;2342046]Appreciate all the good advice from all of you about BB. I'm booked and confirmed for July 11 through July 21.
If any of you will be at BB during my stay, please PM me. I'll be happy to buy the 1st round (of drinks, not Chica's LOL).[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=HuskerDude;2337064]Pictures in the BB newsletter are current as they are taken the previous 2 weeks between the newsletters, so most likely the chicas will be there. They have a Chicago book behind the main desk that has most of the current BB girls. Go through it & if you really want one, you can ask the mamasan when they are working next or may call them to come in fore you. BB is really safe as far as the DR goes.[/QUOTE]Damn auto-correct, it's chica book.
[QUOTE=CharlesPooter;2337348]I live in Puerto Plata so am never far away. But I will not arrange a meet unless you use the PM service here and have a locally-viable phone. I have suffered too many wild-goose chases where posters on this board have let me down. Mine's a cup of tea, please. Is that adult enough for you?
The DR generally is very safe, and Blackbeards even more so.[/QUOTE]Charles, and I am one of those who let you down! Between horrible internet / phone service at BB (and DR generally,) me not checking my ISG PMs, and general noobness. My Apologies!
Thanks for responding and offering to help a noob out when you didn't have to. Hope to make it up to you sometime in the near future!

[/QUOTE]You did not let me down because I never had to get off my ass ("arse" in English). But you still owe me a cup of tea.
But we are all more interested in how you got on at Blackbeards. A friend of mine has just left in disgust, because not only was the pool closed for repairs, but the workers were noisily chipping off the tile and cement for eight hours a day, every day he was there. Dominicans will never pass up the chance to kick up an anti-social racket.

Overall:
Like most have said, definitely noob friendly, pretty safe area, and plan for 3 days tops. Anything more than that and you start getting bored real quick. The pool was open when I was there but I don't remember anybody actually using it.
Girls:
Girls rate mostly 6.5's, a few 8's but you better make appointments! (Keep track of the newsletter.) Remember, you are shooting fish in a barrel, this can get. Boring. If you are looking for more variety, you are free to bring in external entertainment. But personally, I like this kind of boring. If you are a noob, ID advice you to sit your ass down, make some good appointments, get a good massage, walk the beach, appointment, meet up with some folks from here and at BB, and get some advice from the O. GS for your next trip, appointment.
Service:
I'd say the staff was OK, although I had some issues with my room (hot water, tv) but they eventually got resolved. I have a feeling the "lackadaisical" service pace is probably a common thing in the DR. The phone service was pretty awful in costambar area and BB when I visited, maybe its better now.
Believe it or not, the most memorable thing about BB, and I don't see getting mentioned here alot, is the food. And coffee. I'm I the only one?? The food was awesome! Not a coffee snub but best coffee I have had since.
Nothing like good food and. Arse.
Overall it was a good first experience. When I come back to the DR, will definitely be getting my feet wet with 1-2 days at BBs.
Random advice for noobs (may be outdated):
- Store in front of costambar entrance (change money, buy liquor), pharmacy not far away on the opposite side of the road.
- Google tropiclinks for your transport. Beware of the taxi mafia (Not in a scary way LOL, they just won't let you breathe).
- Tip the workers! (not outdated).
Charles, I hope your friend's experience was a one off!
I'm looking to book my first stay at Black Beards this fall. What kind of identification do they require upon check in? For obvious reasons, I would prefer not to have my name on a reservation log there. I know they require a credit card to make a reservation, I'm just wondering if the name on the reservation needs to match my ID upon check in.

You can make up a name, just remember what name you used. LOL As far as credit card info, they never check, I always turn a couple digits around.
Experienced monger here, reporting on my first Blackbeard's trip. Spent five days there recently.
Communication.
Making reservation and confirming and modifying details was done mostly by email. Robin was especially responsive.
Pick-up.
Driver waiting for me as planned at Santiago airport. Cool about stopping at Jenny's Supermarket to change money. There is also an ATM outside Jenny's which I used a few days later to get more cash.
Check-in.
Paid the room rate in advance in Dominican Pesos. Tax is high18%. Was reminded that my room (D2, deluxe single, king bed) was right next to the disco. This was explained to me earlier, so I made a wise packing decision to take ear plugs. Music really didn't bother me that much. Disco shuts down promptly at 11, so it's not like I was kept up all hours.
Room.
The room was better than I expected. The photos on the website suggest harsh, garish colors, but I now know that it was the bright, cool light that made it look that way. Though I can't say the room was tasteful, it was warmer-looking than expected. It was clean and in good repair, save for the ceiling fan shroud. The minibar fridge worked well and the air conditioning and fan kept the room cool with a minimum of noise. WiFi was booming and consistent, both in the room and throughout the facility. TV worked OK, though the remote buttons were a little fiddly. Porn on 301 was nice, though it all looked the same. Plenty of closet space and enough hangers (which you often don't find in 4- and 5-star hotels). Safe works with a key, easier to use than the contemporary keypad models. The bed was comfortable no lumps and has good lumbar support. Lots of pillows. Bathroom fixtures were old but in good repair.
Facilities.
Pool was recently refurbished. Water temp just right for cooling off after sunning. Didn't go in the Jacuzzi. Everything seemed in good repair. Bar was sort of uncomfortable to sit at; not enough of an overhang so where do your knees go? I didn't try the Jacuzzi--and it was out of order for part of my stay.
Neighborhood.
I was surprised to find that the neighborhood around BBs was really nice. Beach is two short blocks away and features a number of seaside cafes and barsthough not so many as to make it seem commercial and tacky. There were a lot of handsome houses and condo buildings. Going the other direction, Jenny's Supermarket was a little less than a mile. Costambar is a gated community; I never once sensed any threat during my walks.
Food.
Breakfast was consistently good; nothing better than waking up to a good omelet, toast, Dominican coffee, and fresh OJ after a night of sex. But I wasn't impressed by the lunch and dinner fare. Chicken with a lemon caper sauce was great the first time I had it, but the second time the chicken was tough and dry. The pork chop was even tougher and dryer. The mozzarella sticks were like bricks. Hamburger was so-so. In short, typical pub grub.
Staff.
Manager Robin seemed born to the job. Easygoing, remembers everyone's name, listens thoughtfully. I always enjoyed talking to him. One of the day managers, though, was not so nice. Due to unforeseen circumstances, I asked Robin if I could check out an hour late. Sure, he said, no problem, no one else has your room reserved. When check out day came, though, the manager on duty told me no, that wasn't possible. She gruffly informed me that I'the have to move my stuff to a different room and pay a $25 fee. My protestations that Robin had told me otherwise fell on deaf ears. Definitely lost a bit of goodwill with that one. The housekeeping staff was very personable and cleaned my room early in the morning as requested (for which I tipped them personally). The waitstaff was also sweet, especially Monica and Adriana.
Processes.
All food and drink transactions are laboriously written out on a pad with carbon paper (Most of the time I paid in cash, though sometimes I billed my meals or drinks to the room. It was never clear to me how they would keep track of which meals I'the paid for; I never received any receipts. At check out, I was presented with a total but not a breakdown of expenses, which made it impossible to double check my bill. Hope that BB's installs a 21st century billing / point-of-sale system someday to make it easier to keep track expenses.
Chicas.
All the women I was with were clean and well-groomed. Each one took a shower upon entering my room and on leaving it. Nearly all had at least one tattoo, but no one was heavily or unattractively inked. Nearly all had shaved pussies, and those who didn't had a nice little trim. One had a nose piercing. They were all Dominicanas and ranged in coloration from dusky to chocolate. Most had natural tits, though a couple had had work done. None of them was drop-dead gorgeous, but neither was anyone homely or skanky.
All the women were cool with me taking pix of them (clothed). I didn't ask for nude shots.
Hilda, one of the mamasans, was very good about finding me the kind of girls I like, and seemed to manage the chicas with a good mixture of firmness and empathy. She's also pretty hot herself and I had a good trio with her and Michelle.
Personalities ranged from those who came close to offering a GFE with good eye contact, laughter, and a short nap together afterwards to those who seemed rushed and mechanical. I had four threesomes; three of them where what BB's calls a "Happy Hour," which is when both women focus on you but do not interact sexually with each other. The standouts there were Rony & Chanel, who were good the first time and great the second. I also had a "Lesbian Show" threesome which costs slightly more and, because it was fairly light on the girl / girl interaction, wasn't quite what I'the hoped.
I had two anal sessions, both with Ana. The first wasn't that great; Ana didn't seem at all into foreplay and wanted to fuck spoon style as soon as I got respectably hard. And she left quickly afterward. Over the next few days, she came over to me a lot and asked if I wanted to go again, and finally on my last day there I relented. This session was better; she didn't rush to the main course this time and took quite an anal pounding in doggy.
Two standouts were Marlin, a new girl, and Flor, a veteran. Both gave close to a GFE and definitely knew their way around a man's body.
Suggestions.
One my best decisions was to bring a Bluetooth speaker and a tablet. I'm not normally a fan of background music during sex, but here it really helped set the mood and gave the chicas something to dance to.
For those who plan on doing trios, I suggest bringing a LOT of condoms, because the girls are diligent about swapping them out each time you go from one to another. BB's sells condoms at the bar, but they're not as good quality as the ones I brought.
There are rooms on the other side of the pool, across from the bar, that are entered from the outside and have little front porch setups with a chair or two. That looked pretty inviting, so next time I go I may request one.
Summed up.
Thanks to the other posters on this board, I knew pretty well what to expect at Blackbeards. My experience there was very much line with what others have described. It's not the way I would choose to do This Thing We Do all the time, but for where my head was at at that time, it was perfect. I was stressed out and mentally tired from a grueling stretch at work. Didn't feel like assessing, pursuing, and rolling the dice this time. Blackbeards had what I was looking for and did it well. Everything worked the way it was supposed to. And while I can't honestly claim it was an amazing mind-blowing experience, it was a good one nonetheless. I suspect I'll return.
One of the best reports on any location which I have ever read over the past eighteen years. Totally literate and detailed about the stuff that matters. Very helpful to anyone hesitating whether to plump for Blackbeards.
There haven't been any posts in a while. Though I would send out an update. LOL.
Shipmate prices have gone up again. Not too much but they have gone up none the less.
Short term: $2,500 (one session) $50 USD.
All night: $4,500 (two sessions) $90 USD.
Exclusive: $6,500 (three sessions) $130 USD.
Regardless of price I always give a tip if the service was great and it usually is for me. Always let them know your expectations up front and enjoy the time!
Been a long time since I've been there. But when I was there I didn't understand the appeal of the place at all. When I was up in there I didn't see a chica I would fuck with your dick.
BB is not a bad place but if you have been any where else it quickly loses its luster. Most girls are 5 to 7 and the top girls are in great demand. So you sit around waiting for sloppy 3 rds. If you are insecure and need hand holding then BB fills the need. If Boca Chica and Sosua did not exist BB would the end all be all, I have been there twics and will never go again. Sosua give you access tover 200 willing girls.

Looks like a government is in affect until at least April!
I received an email from Blackbeard's management today stating that it, like other resorts in the DR, is still closed due to the pandemic. They do not know when they will be able to re-open, but doubt it will be before July or August. The good news, though, is that none of the staff or the chicas are sick. I'm looking forward to a huge grand re-opening party and partaking in all sorts of life-affirming activities then.

I am not sure if all the girls get health check ups. Even then what I heard was there was no BBFS on site. Maybe in private you can arrange with a individual girl.
The beach around is not as lively as Sosua.
Sammon is right that those who have the time and enthusiasm for searching for and pursuing women might not enjoy Blackbeard's. He's right that the beach nearby is laid back. And he's right that there is officially no BBFSA. As has been said many times on this site, to each his own. Those who want an off-the-hook beach scene, who love the search and pursuit, and who are willing to chance BBFS would probably find the Sosua scene more to their liking.
However some of Sammon's conclusions, based apparently on being there a few hours for the swimsuit competition, are not borne out by my experience.
The women there DO get regular health checks. In my book, that's one definite advantage of Blackbeard's. So is the fact that many of them speak passable English—it makes communication much easier for those of us who are not fluent in Spanish. It helps avoid misunderstandings and disappointments. The women run the gamut from good-looking to average. Looks are, of course, a matter of personal taste, but I've never seen an ugly woman there. And thanks to the excellent mamasans, guys can easily hook up with women who offer whatever it is they're looking for. You also get much more assurance that you won't be robbed or ripped off.
I have done and enjoyed the kind of mongering Sammon prefers. But I have also done and enjoyed places like Blackbeard's. My choice of which to partake of depends a lot on my state of mind and the time I can spend.
The Blackbeard's environment is not for everyone. It doesn't try to be. Various guys on this board have written about coming to Blackbeard's to relax and get away from their demanding and sometimes exhausting jobs. For those men, the quiet beach, the ease with which female company can be had, the assurances of safety and health, and the ability to communicate verbally with the chica of their choice are precisely what they're looking for.

In may trips, I also found the women to be attractive to average, and mostly great service. No BS at all. I am not sure why some don't get it that it is a personal choice whether you like it or not. If not, don't go there. I personally like to go there for a few days each trip to the island. But I probably would be bored after a few days if I tried to stay there more than 3 or 4 days. That's why I head to the Sue next. I recommend for first timers to DR on the north coast to book a day or two at Blackbeards before heading elsewhere. If you don't like it, don't go back.
In the near future, you need to have a backup plan when visiting BB or any other hotel. According to the previous email, they had to kick out 3 guests. I do not blame BB, the government made them do it.
I wonder how those that were kicked out managed this challenge. What if were was no plane seats available to their destination? Could they have rent an apartment for a few days on short notice? If yes at what rate? I suppose when you go to BB, it would be better to have more than one credit card, plenty of cash, a list of potential apartment owners or managers. There is a possibility of being stuck in DR if the second wave of the virus craziness will hit while you are there.

It describes the situation you encountered there and gave me a better understanding as to the reasons someone would use their facilities. I have been there (yes it was a while ago). It was a mens club meeting for about 4 hours. Although I did not partake. I found it to be everything you described. The girls. I even purchased some pharmaceuticals there that were so powerful they could only be used with the most enthusiastic playmates. We need more of your type of reporting.
Two Thumbs up!
Just as a side note, you didn't mention the food. How is the steak?

Personal preferences is the reason we all travel to where we do, and do what we do after we get there and pay what we want to get what we want, right?
I spent three days in the Sue and I was ready to head back to home base. Even through I enjoyed my experience it's too far away in my opinion. And in spite of the King of Sosua delighting in throwing eggs at me from a distance (and missing I might add), I actually enjoy all the action I get from the major cities and puta pueblos that I frequent. They are all within a 20 minute to 2 hour drive for me. Oh shit, there the mention of my vehicle again!
It's obvious that some of us don't let others dictate to us how we chose to spend our time or hard earned money. Why? Because we handle our man business the way we choose to. I appreciate the descriptions that provide real information on places and situations along with the their personal opinions. I don't even know why people mention the quality of looks anymore. When I said nobody asks for 7's, people rode my case. But if you look at posts people ask numerically for 8's and up. The problem is my attractiveness scale will always be different from someone else's. So I also ask: "What type of girl do you find attractive? What are the physical qualities you like? That helps me make a recommendation on attractiveness way better. Time, energy, language skills and money all play into our individual decisions that we make when deciding how to procure, pay and who we choose as our playmates.
I'll keep posting until COVID-19 gets me!
"It's obvious that some of us don't let others dictate to us how we chose to spend our time or hard earned money".

Most were ugly? Not my experience. There is usually a broad spectrum, to suit every taste. Suggest anyone look at the newsletter, and you can see for yourself.
The good looking ones get fucked a lot? Like the good looking ones in Sosua don't service more clients than the others? Really? Looking for a pretty girl in Sosua that hasnt seen a lot of action?
Not sure why a set up like this needs language skills? Seriously? Much better to communicate with your partner than pointy-talky.
Yes the girls do get medical checkups monthly. And while I can appreciate the benefits of bareback, do you really want unprotected sex with a girl that has serviced many clients in the past week?
It takes all kinds to make a world.

I recall when a Short Time was 1500 pesos, but that was when you got 30 DOP to the dollar. Now, its over 50 to the dollar.
Anyone recommend the best way for me to get to Blackbeard's from Santo Domingo (SDQ?) I already bought a flight to SDQ and want to split my time between Blackbeards / Sousa / Santo Domingo.
It's about a 3.5 hour drive, and there are ZERO direct flights on Google flights. Is Uber or a transportation service the best way to go?
When looking at inflation inside a country you do not look at exchange rates. The selling of pussy is a service. You only get to use the pussy for a specified period of time at certain rate. You do not ever own it. Even if you marry it! So the price of that service is not tied to the rate of exchange of any other currency outside of the country the service is being provided in.
A Dominican Peso is a Dominican Peso is a Dominican Peso peso to a Dominicana inside of Republica Dominicana.

In order to measure the change of a certain amount of money due to inflation in a given country you must know the amount of money and the period of time being measured. We do not have those exact numbers. But we have an idea. The OP gave a reference of 30 DOP to 1 USD. The exchange rate app I use gave 36 DOP to 1 USD in 2010 (no data past then and I didn't bother to look). So let's take 1500 DOP and check what the value of it would be in 2020 based on the historic rate of inflation in Republica Dominicana: 2161 DOP (rounding). That gives you a real price increase of a "Short Time" session with the pussy at Blackbeards Resort of around 240 DOP give or take a DOP.
Now if your economy is in USD and you started buying a session with the pussy for 1500 DOP at 30 DOP to 1 USD you were paying 50 USD. If are now paying 2500 DOP for the same session at 54 DOP to 1 USD (April 2020) you are now paying 46.30 USD. That is 3. 70 USD (7. 4%) less for your session with the pussy at Blackbeards Resort. Due to the currency markets you are currently receiving a discount. But remember markets go up and they go down. Some of you hard working people out there with large 401 (k) balances out there are learning that the hard way right now. Just remember it is not a loss until you sell.
Have the prices for pussy session at Blackbeard's gone up higher than the rate of inflation in DOP? Yes! Is the individual who earns their money in USD paying more? No! You see the math does not change if you have a job or are currently restricted from traveling to Republica Dominicana because the DR government is trying to get a handle on the worldwide pandemic on their part of the island right now.
There is a difference between precision and accuracy. Not bad for a man in the arena who can't spell, eh? But I can do basic math. And I've been doing it for a long time as I learned how in elementary school. I've also picked up a bit of knowledge about currency markets and exchange rates over the years.
I'll keep posting until the computer game of life hits me with COVID-19. I'll fight it until: Game over! If you do not see me here anymore, look for me in the statistics. LOL!
Note: to make the calculation I used the following site that also makes a few assumptions based on the historical data it has available. Check it out for yourself.

[QUOTE=Yanqui69;2446152]I wish them all luck.
You know they all have to be hurting financially.
The hotel staff, in particular.[/QUOTE]In the BB newsletter the owner John, mentioned that the government was giving employees a portion of their salary on 4/15 & he was giving them the difference in what they were making. Also gave all the chicas some $ for food, etc and donated all the food on hand to split among them all.
Price for ST in USD in January 2018-$37, in September 2019-$49. So about one third price hike in dollars, not in pesos!
Brazil recently became cheaper for everything by about 30-50% comparing to DR. Last week I checked air ticket prices for this fall and it was cheaper than DR. Brazil is better in every way besides the flight time. It's not an option for short trips, but for a week or two, I would choose Brazil.
[QUOTE=Yanqui69;2446153]Prices just seem to be keeping up with inflation.
I recall when a Short Time was 1500 pesos, but that was when you got 30 DOP to the dollar. Now, its over 50 to the dollar.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=YyzTravel;2446446]Anyone recommend the best way for me to get to Blackbeard's from Santo Domingo (SDQ?) I already bought a flight to SDQ and want to split my time between Blackbeards / Sousa / Santo Domingo.
It's about a 3.5 hour drive, and there are ZERO direct flights on Google flights. Is Uber or a transportation service the best way to go?[/QUOTE]I used Tropiclinks on my last trip, but it was from Santiago. Google their site, but I think they have service from SD. [URL]https://www.tropiclink.net[/URL]. It is a shared ride, on their website, it says they can go from SD to Blackbeards. They have a US number that you can call for info and pricing on your exact dates. If you read deep in the Sosua forum, you might find bus info from SD, I know I have read about it in the past, but can't direct you to a thread at the moment. This may be a cheaper way if you can figure it out.

You can take an uber or motoconcho from Puerto Plata bus station to Blakbeards which is very close. This is very cost effective, comfortable buses and may be the best way.
First of all I would like to thank all of the informative posters. As a first-time poster this thread has given me a wealth of information & goes quite far back. I feel like I have a great idea of what to expect from BB. I've been keeping a close eye on travel restrictions in and out of the DR. It would appear that they will be opening airports countrywide July 1st. Although I will not be able to travel that soon I hope to get in late July early August. Consistent numbers across multiple websites are saying 40 to 50% hotels will open in July with the remainder in November. Just curious if anyone has an inside scoop on the situation with BB?

Or even month. Government policy about what business can and cannot reopen, both in the DR and elsewhere, changes frequently in response to the evolution of the pandemic. Whenever you get there, though, enjoy your stay!

But I know that for me personally if I don't put a loose plan together then I will let other things get in the way and it won't happen. I've been telling myself for more than 10 years that I was going to make a trip to Pattaya needless to say I have not done that. The Chase does not interest me I had considered the DR as a destination previously. But was not willing to pay the outrageous cost of something like blue paradise or Playboy vacations. And chasing tail in Sosua easy as it may be is not my cup of tea. I honestly didn't know BB's existed until after the world was already in lockdown for covid-19. If it weren't for a misspelled Google search and a write-up from rockit reports I would still be in the dark. I am a total greenhorn to P4P or international travel for that matter. Having read every scrap of information that is available on this forum pertaining to BB's for me it's an absolute no-brainer. I cannot think of one single question to ask that has not already been answered tenfold by the wealth of information that is available in this thread. My time is so limited that's the point and click nature in close proximity to Kansas City where I live is fucking perfect. Reading this forum has gotten me acquainted with who the legends both ladies and guests are past and present and I can't wait to get my pasty white ass down there.
[QUOTE=Cannibal86;2458963]...the point and click nature...[/QUOTE]Other easy-to-get-to options in that category would be The Hotel M (a / k / a The Mansion a / k / a / Casa Blanca) in Medellin and Campo Alegre in Curaao. The former is still closed, as far as I know, due to the pandemic and the latter has reportedly been forced into bankruptcy, but when things open up again I wouldn't be surprised if both those places opened as well. There's also the Hotel Del Rey in San Jose, Costa Rica. I like both "the chase" and the "point and click"; it all depends on time, distance, money, opportunity, and my state of mind. LMK if and when you make your BB's reservations; I might be there too.

LMK if and when you make your BB's reservations; I might be there too.[/QUOTE]You couldn't have said that better time and distance are the two biggest factors for me. At the maximum I can take 5 days off from work plus Saturday and Sunday so a total of 7. Travel time and boots on the ground would all be within that time frame. Which is largely reason I've never buckled down and committed to a Thailand trip. But with the DR and BB's being in such close proximity to home I would have five full days to enjoy. Even having to switch planes in Miami from MCI I can be in POP inside of 7 hours from takeoff. I suppose I shouldn't say that I don't or wouldn't like the chase because under the right circumstances I'm sure I could. I don't chase here in the States because I'm not interested in having a long-term at this point in my life. But something tells me it's much different abroad. For getting my feet wet in the world of transactional intimacy and the DR I feel like BB's is the right choice for me. As far as letting you know if and when I make my reservations absolutely as long as you don't mind hanging around with a younger fellow I just turned 34. I'm sold I'm coming it's just a matter of when.
