Panama City

[QUOTE=MocosGuey;2849857]Arrived this past Saturday.

Lodging. Booked an Airbnb in the Yoo tower. 75 story bldg on Balboa kind of between Hilton and Meridien. The 2 of us rented this 2 br unit for about $600 for 3 nights = $100 pp / nt. We'd looked at the W due to visitor friendliness but it woulda cost twice at $197/ nt per room. Self check-in picking up keys from reception was seamless. No one ever asked us anything about bringing visitors in. Front desk doesn't care. Would highly recommend this place.

Transportation. We used Uber mostly. $3 ish to Casco and $7 to Ocean Sun but that was in rush hour. Taxi ripped us off from the canal so we learned our lesson.

We arrived Saturday around 3 pm. Got to condo around 4, freshened up and jumped right on panescorts. My buddy hit up a couple and so did I. We were starving and walked out to eat. It is our first time here so we thought to get the lay of the land. Walked to Alejandro's, just a few blocks away past Gauchos. Was dead, too early. We then walked past W to Habanos. Dead too. So we ate at Beirut across from Habanos. Ok Lebanese food I guess? Walking back past Habanos at around 8 pm still seemed dead so we headed back to the condo having lined up one from panescorts. She was $120 and when she showed up, recommended a friend for same rate. Friend came over and my buddy and I headed to our rooms. Both very good looking, friendly, great chemistry, we both got BBBJ and covered other. They hung a bit afterward and had some drinks then left. Around 1130 pm, we thought we'd go back to check on Alejandro's as we'dread about it. Major disappointment. They were like 30-45 girls there and it was weird. We talked to like 10 of them and none were interested in leaving. One girl told us they're paid to get us to hang and buy more drinks for the girls and are "working" till 4 am. The music was stooopid loud and drinks were just ok AND the price for the chica drinks was inflated over what the menu showed. Will not go there again. Waste of time, unless you just want to hang and buy drinks for chicas. My 2 cents. Maybe others get more out of that place, and maybe it's just my first time and there's some code I did not follow. One girl did say she was open to an actual date and then we see where it goes "naturally". Yeah, I liked that fantasy but no. [ / endquote].

Great report! We're the girls you ordered from pan escorts the ones that showed up?

Did not go back by Habanos so sadly nothing to report there.

Sunday we did the canal and then went to casco. Ate at Tantalo then went upstairs for the rooftop. Very good food and drinks. The girls from the previous night came over again and we had some salsa and bachata lessons on the balcony and off to the rooms we went. Later around 2 am, got someone else from panescorts for $100. Awesome girl next door type.

Monday went to the jungle for hiking and the Embera indigenous people. We decided to check out Ocean Sun and Panaviera sky bar. Nice Place, good food, killer view, and eye candy. When we were done and leaving, the bar down by the casino had filled out and there were many options. However, we'dalready setup repeats so we did not approach there. By the way, more experienced folks, how do you work ocean sun? It seemed like all were sitting in groups. I read on an earlier review that they are more expensive there but I don't have a report on that.

All the panescorts girls we met are Colombian from Medellin, which is where I'm headed today. Going to the source. Like Spivvv said in his post a couple weeks back, panescorts was my best resource. I also tried Tinder but nothing came of it.

All in all, I loved Panama for mix of hobbying and adventure stuff so I'll be coming back!

You will have doorman at the larger condominium places. If you get one near Casco Viejo you'll have a private entrance and good views typically on roof top. The 30 floor condos are hit and miss. I would stay at the W before a huge condo. Casco Viejo is where it's at though. Just a few cheap ubers to get you places.

I asked a few chicas from seeking about the high rise I'm staying in, they all say it's never a problem to get in. Hopefully so I plan to line up at least 1, if not 2 per day. We will see how it goes.

Several of the units I have looked at have that. I guess they are all affiliated with WH. I always look carefully at the owners rules before booking anything.

I see, guess I didn't notice that. I double checked the one I have booked in October and it doesn't have it.

Where are you seeing that at? None of the listings I looked at said that. Is this on the app or webpage?

The locations I am looking at all seem to have this disclaimer. Is this normal for condo's in Panama City?

In order to access the building it is necessary to register with the following information:

- Names of each guest.

That's the question, a guest for an hour is different than a overnight guest. I have never used them although I see they have a lot of places in panama. I only book at one's that define guest as overnight. The others are just to me visitors.

Thanks, I ended up booking a place off of Avenida balboa. It's self check in which tells me there's no need to check in with a front desk. Didn't find out until after I booked that it's on the 52nd floor. Really nice place and super cheap. 650 for the week. I plan on using seeking. I will just have to ask the chicas to dress casual. Appreciate the help and I'll update throughout my visit in late October.

I've never been to Panama but have been to Costa Rica and Mexico. How would you rate the value via the American dollar in Panama to those places. I really enjoyed Costa Rica not just for the sex part but there is a lot to see and do if you like hiking and other outdoor activities.

I hated San Juan. Someone said it best that it lacks the vibrant energy most Latin American cities have to the point I wanted to leave after one day. I did not go to beach or in nature and I am sure that would be different altogether. Panama city is like a quiet nice Miami that's super cheap. Panama is cheaper than Costa Rica. City for city.

Thanks! I did find it. Stupid filter I guess. Never had that issue. I did book my trip today! Just trying to decide wether or not to book a really nice air be&be that would have security onsite. Anyone have any experience with that?

Panamá is cheaper than CR for most things but the outdoor activities aren't quite as good. Still good, but not as good. I don't do México any more so can't compare it. But CR is expensive for a lot of everyday things.
