San Jose - 2004 Reports

[Jun Fan]

OK.....has anyone ever been with "Maria Velez"??? She is a pretty hot girl from Medellin Colombia...she's a real hottie, certainly a 9, maybe a 10. She comes off as pretty snobby, but I like her. I have never thrown down with her yet, but want to.

Anybody know anything?

[Jun Fan]

I have a girl there that I have a total GFE with everytime I go. She is a regular at the Blue Marlin, the first time we met we went off for a weekend in Jaco together and had a blast. She is a real nympho, always begging me to screw her. She is always smiling and loves to smoke her mota. Hey, I know what she does for a living and really don't care. She even has me stay with her at her house, hanging out with her kids some, and have even met her mother....lol. The fact is I have a girlfriend when I am in San Jose, and that's what I like. Then we both go back to our own lives when I leave. Simple as that.

This last time I went, I spent two full days and nights with her just kind of hanging out, and obviously doing alot of screwing. I gave her $180 for the whole time, but she never asks for money.

Kid Cisco,

I have had girlfriends stay all night, and some have been relatively reasonable in price, less than $100, and some have cost me more; up to $200. I have had some offer to stay with me for a couple of days, and they have told me "no money." But, of course, they are playing their little game, and they are hoping to soften you up over time so they can get gifts out of you, or perhaps a little cash too. However, that having been said, I think they actually want to stay with some of us, and the money is the icing on the cake for them.

One specific girl that I consider to be a choosey freelancer; one who doesn't make it a regular practice with just anyone, stayed with me for at least 12 hours. I didn't pay her anything that day at all. I left Costa Rica for Colombia, returned in a week, she met me at the airport upon my return, and she stayed with me all night again. Then, the next day, I purchased a gift for her prior to flying back to the US.

Before I left for Colombia, she had hinted around at wanting a new TV, but she was asking and not demanding it. She would have gone without it, but I decided to give her a new Color TV set for about $200. No money, just the gift. It was truely a GFE with this girl, and she was hoping I would buy it for her, and I think she expected me to buy it when I returned from Colombia, but there were no guarantees before I left for Colombia. For all she knew, I could have left for Colombia and never returned. She just trusted me to come back and see her. She was hoping I would buy it, but she never asked for it when I returned from Colombia...not once.

This girl claims I am muy especial to her. Of course, I am skeptical that I am really that special to her, but I think she genuinely likes me a lot, and I think she acutally has romantic feelings for me. Stranger things have happened. I think it just depends on if they like you, if they want to see you again, and if they actually might have some romantic feelings for you deep inside.

So, I think the girls in Costa Rica are relatively expensive for all night fun in comparison to some other venues, but they are easier to get for all night fun compared to somewhere like Monterrey, Mexico for example...much easier. However, in contrast, you are probably correct in assuming that the all nighters are much more abundant and cheaper in DR and definitely more so in Rio if the reports I have read are accurate. I have never been to DR and Rio, but based on what I have heard about DR and Rio, Costa Rica is a much less desireable destination when considering cost, availability, and overall GFE potential.

Apparently US Airways has sale fares to SJO. I checked fares thru next spring out of Charlotte, NC and found them to be under $500 which is always nice. I checked fares from various East Coast cities and found some bargains in the $300 and $400 range. Check for your city.

It is cheaper to fly from Atlanta thru Charlotte on US Air than nonstop from ATL on Delta. Likewise it is cheaper to fly on Delta from Charlotte thru Atlanta than from Atlanta alone. Grrrrr. So for a deal on Delta I have to drive to Charlotte from Atlanta? I guess so.

By the way, Delta now charges $4 for alcoholic drinks on the international flights from North America to Central America. (BYOB?) At least they serve a free "meal".

Thanks for the info!

Day 2

Decided to play tourist in San Jose today. Walked everywhere and you know what? There isn't much to see here. No decent museums or culture. My feet began to hurt so I took a taxi to New Fantasy. It wasn't bad, 14,000 c. for an hour. Nice girl, good massage and very good bbbj.

I stopped at a store to get some trinkets and started a conversation with a sweetie named Gabriella. She was born in Spain and moved to Costa Rica as a kid. She spoke decent English. Gabriella agreed to meet me for dinner. She emphasized dinner only. I walked over to her store at 6:30 and we went to Tin Jo, a pan-asian restaurant. Trust me, this place is very good. We ate and talked until about 9:30. We're both real talkers and Gabriella is world wise. We walked to the Presidente talking more. Gabriella said she had to go, I invited her to my room but she declined. However, she did agree to another date Saturday. We'll see how it goes. Tomorrow is excursion day to wherever, as long as it isn't San Jose.

Couple of things to pass on at the Del Rey. Last night a few armed men entered and started shooting off there guns in a robbery attempt. I do not know all the details but from what I heard all people were ordered to the floor and no one was shot.

I have also heard a story this week of an American dying in his hotel after a girl from the Del Rey put a knock out type drug into his drink. I am not however sure the story is 100% true but there is a lesson anyway. This is not very common here but I have heard of this practice for real. It is meant to render the person unconscious in an attempt to rob them. As with all drugs it can be deadly to the right person. Never leave your drinks unattended, always get you own drinks and if you are not sure of the place you are getting them go somewhere else or drink a beer or soda you see opened in front of you.

As always be smart and do drink to much when ever you travel.

Firebird,

You may have been referring to note of mine. I always stress paying this $26 annoyance at the time of arrival. What I said was; once you arrive, go through Customs and proceed out of the airport (street level) across the street, up the stairs and back inside the airport.

And, yes, you can also pay the Exit tax at the Bank referenced below; I have also done that if I arrive in SJO when the airport Tax booth is closed. Never wait to pay this Exit Tax when departing; your airport wait-time can be reduced significantly when you do this in advance.

[Kid Cisco]

I am just wondering how many of you guys get girls to stay for the night?? I been to Costa Rica before and I notice ALL the girls I have met always charge by the hour!! now with that said, when I go to DR or RIO the girls charge for the whole night (night by the hour) for the prices the girls charge in Costa Rica for the hour I could have 98% of the girls in DR or Rio for that same price so once again how many guys out there get girls for the night if so how much.

Or is it just by the hour in Costa Rica.

Hi guys,

I asked this question in the Quepos section but thought I'd post here as well just in case.

Quepos is a decent town but if you are staying there you may want to consider a hotel in Manuel Antonio which is about 5 miles south. It is a very beautiful town and beach. I have not been there in a while but will find out about hotels there. I do not know about the charters but there are many there amoung other places like in Jaco area. Right now is the low season so you can shop around when you get here for the best price.

While I am here a few words on Jaco. Jaco is one of the easiest beaches to get to here so it is popular with Americans. However it is by no means the nicest beach. It does have some action since many Del Rey girls go there to work in the beatle bar and there are two nightclubs. This town started picking up when Los Suenos Marina opened, lots of big money people staying in the marina (100+ foot yachts are common). This has really run up prices there, yet not much has changed in the town, same hotels, resturants and pothole filled roads just more expensive. Most shops and resturants will quote in dollars not local currency. It is easy to get along here with English than anywhere else in CR.

There are some decent girls working in Beatle Bar but not as many high quality like San Jose. The same $100 quote applys here but they will go for less. I always tell people go against the old saying of bringing sand to the beach, here bring sand to the beach. It is better to find a girl in San Jose that wants to go to the beach you will end up paying less for more tiime. Many girls here would be happy to spend a few days at the beach and there is a much better selection here.

There are two nightclubs in Jaco, one in the center of town but I would not trust your bill, they overcharged me a few months back and I will not return. The other is on the main road leading to town, no rip-offs but very expensive. I was quoted $200 for sex.

Figured I mention this since I hear a lot of talk about the action in Jaco. It is easy to get to but one of the most expensive places in CR. If you have the time take a girl to Quepos/Manuel Antonio or Tamarindo/Guanacaste area. If you don't have much time or do not want a long ride to Guanacaste it will do but bring your own sand!

Day 1

Arrived in San Jose at 12:30. Since the Presidente doesn't allow check in until 2:00 I went across the street and upstairs to change some money and pay the departure tax. It took all of 3 minutes. The rate was just under 450 to the dollar. My first impression is good. Nice airport, clean and a lot of stores. Grabbed an orange taxi for $12 and off we went.

Arrived at The Presidente and discovered the room I reserved was given to someone else. They gave me another room and when I asked for the safe key it was discovered that room had also been taken. So a third room was assigned. Got to that room only to discover it wasn't clean. So, back to the front desk. They kindly gave me an upgrade and I now have a very nice room with a balcony. Its quiet as well.

Gave Member #2626 a call and we made plans for tonight. Decided to check out the BM. It was okay, lots of old gringos sitting on stools and pros walking about. I bought a tee-shirt and started to head over to New Fantasy. Only it started to pour so I went back to the hotel and got my handy dandy umbrella. Set back out on a search for the NF and promptly got lost. At some point I realized I went too far and turned around. I went up a hill and looked to my right and lo and behold there was Zona Blue. Mr. Happy said, screw NF lets go find Wanda. We were welcomed like long lost friends. Wanda is nice and ZB is a nice place. However, the girls all seemed bored. I selected Marlene and was very disappointed. The massage sucked and the suck sucked as well. Remember, YMMV.

Met with Member #2626 and we hit a nice Italian place for dinner and then off to IDEM. #2626 is a great guy, a true sporting gentleman. And he's got a keen eye for politics. Met a 20 year old cutie, Marla, at IDEM and she agreed to meet me at the hotel at 11:30, when she got off. (I also hoped to get off.) IDEM had about 8 girls. Besides Marla I only saw one other I would want.

We went Le Grillon next. I don't drink alcohol and by now I was so full of cokes and pepsis and couldn't stand to look at another one. My gut was really bloated from the carbonation (well, that's my excuse!) It was slow doings at Le Grillon but we met a couple of cuties. I had Bonnie, a light skinned 19 year old. We played and fondled for awhile and I tried to make a date for tomorrow but she insisted on $100. Sorry, but no es possible.

We planned to go to the Flamingo and Monaco but it was 11:30 and I had agreed to meet Marla. She was right on time. #2626 and I parted ways as I went to spend some quality time with Marla. However, disappointment soon crept in again. She kept yawning and didn't want to kiss or allow me to DATY. We had a nice long session, but I've had better. She just wasn't into it. I gave her 20,000 c. for 90 minutes. She wanted to stay longer but Mr. Happy went to sleep and I was exhausted from a long day.

Hi guys,

I asked this question in the Quepos section but thought I'd post here as well just in case.

A few of my friends from work and I are heading down to CR in late march, this will be my first trip to Costa Rica as well as a first for them as well. Thank you all who have posted here as I have learned alot from your experience and will hopefully be putting it to good use.

We plan on staying for 5 days, 1 in San Jose 2 in Quepos to fish and then the last 2 back in SJ. My question is this however, does anyone have any suggestions on inexpensive hotels in Quepos? My only requirements are a comfortable place to sleep and a hot shower, As far as lavish accomidations I am not picky. Also, if anyone has a reccomendation for a good fishing charter captain, that would be great as well, as I said we plan on at least one full day of fishing and then hopefully some rainforest sightseeing.

As far as San Jose goes, I am faily confidant in what I have read here, I am planning on booking us into the Presidente for the first and last night of our trip with some heavy powermongering involved in the time we are there.

Again, thank you for your help and I look forward to sharing my trip reports with the board upon my return.

Thanks again,

Maboman

planned on a more elaborate one, but i have to go monger in chile tomorrow, so i'll start confusing stuff...

went to new fantasy mid morning. price 13k. 8 girls available at the time. range 5-6. picked atuvi. very nice girl, mid-twenties, pretty hard stomach, rather soft otherwise. professional relaxation services were really nice. massage in the wet sauna (really hot for her up high in the mist). continued to some extent in the room. practically a professional-grade experience.

only problem, very little playfullness or passion. she was new to the company, not sure about the industry. seemed a little shy, but not in a fun way. everything covered, which i'm always glad about afterwards, but not during. i enjoy providing a good massage, but she declined. bottom line, nice enough girl, but not sleazy enough. nice to be the king.

went in and out of vip's next to jetset. what dives! horrible places! disgusting! i kept telling myself that everytime i walked in, time after time....

didn't do anything. girls 4-6 when i was there, but there may have been a couple of 7's late night.

went to lipstick. pretty nice place. $20 which includes 4 beers. already had enough, it was late and they wouldn't negotiate so i stayed near the front for a while then left.

across the street is another place. $12 for 3 drinks. girls drinks $8-10. had a very nice time with andie, a fair-skinned 7. got her phone number for another time. stage show was pretty good. girls were actually naked more than 10 seconds at the end of their set. 8-11 girls late night.

went to elite, which you will never find unless you pronounce it eh-leet-ay.
$15/3 beers. i've been to the sister club in panama. 6-8.5's. talented on stage, as well. i was chosen to be a prop during one of the production numbers. three girls dressed like b. speers giving me an increasingly erotic lap dance on stage. fun and funny.

didn't try for extras or buy any girls a drink. i think table dances were $10, private for $20.

toured zona blue. girls and facility a bit nicer than nf, but not 80% nicer, which would have been the price differential. from posts, the service might be better, though (bbbj, for example).

spent several wonderful hours at the blue marlin. the radisson snookered me out of an entire night with sirlene (see my previous post). i don't think you'd go wrong with her, although the price point of over $100 for the night seems a bit high. in general, i loved the blue marlin scene. nothing better than feeling like the king of kings.

for those poker players, hold-em available at the radisson (4/8 spread, tournaments 3 days per week), and the place across from the horseshoe (5/10, on the 2nd floor).

have fun!

Somewhere in the forum I read that it is easier to pay the Airport Tax on arrival and writer provided (I believe) a location outside of the Airport. I reviewed the forum but now cannot find this message.

If you are referring to the downtown bank where you can pay your departure tax at any time, it is Bancredito.

Hi guys,

I'll be in CR in 2 weeks. With all respect to neatly shaving, being from Europe, I like women more natural, meaning unshaved.

Can anyone tell me where to find those kind of girls? I read in the forum that semi-pros are more likely to skip the razor.

Many thanks
