Puntarenas

[Mellowg]

Well, the Good Fortune Hotel and Bar has closed its doors again for the last two weeks.

No telling when it will reopen.

Lately the talent there was very so-so, IMHO never above 5-6, so no great lost.

So I am working hard to find a replacement place to go

Cost for the girls is 40,000 colones and negotiable, with a 20,000 colones take out fee. (exchange rate 571=us$1)

Good luck with that you might find Spanish student one a year to pay that
Or better yet why not put up your real prices and maybe you could get some real business from this ad.

It is not an add.

Just mentioning the places that are available in the area and stating the asking price. And you are not obliged to partake in any of this.

Nobody else seems to want bring forth the information for this part of the country. Awaiting to be able to visit the places you will give direction to.

yes it is the most expensive place i found around here... local places are usually 10,000 colones a pop plus 3,000 for the room (exchange rate today 544)

Ok, so you got stuck in Puntarenas and do not like what is available. Believe you me I know what you mean, having lived in the suburbs for the last 20 years.

May I suggest you head out from Puntarenas, some 25km direction San Jose, and you will get to the little town of ESPARZA
Turn right at the only traffic light than continue turning left just after the park (not the football {soccer for you Yanks}) and the Catholic church. Three blocks further you will find the entrance to the “Casa Espana”

The entrance is through steel gates that are open during “working hours”, plenty of secure parking space for your car, with an attendant looking out for you. You car is parked at the same level as the entrance to the Bar which you can see as you drive up. Well light, clean, with a side salon with plenty of tables and sofas if you need.

Last Friday for example, there were 5 girls, 1 bronze and 4 whitish, all Nicas, grade of 7-8, pleasant, friendly and easy to talk to. Only one customer when I got there around 11:30pm. Hours of operation are 9:00pm till ???

Cost for the girls is 40,000 colones and negotiable, with a 20,000 colones take out fee. (exchange rate 571=us$1)

Much better than the places you get in Puntarenas, more up-market, and the prices reflect this… but the beer is still 800 colones, including the chica drinks.

That’s crazy the most expensive places charge 18,000 to 24,000 and that’s only because they are mostly gringo places the local places are 6,000 to 12,000. No Tico will pay that and I don’t think anyone smart enough to read this board will either.

Porton Verde used to be a hohum meeting place where 2 or 3 provider of iffy quality attended without enthousiasm.

Sra Janet, the owner, has decided to spruce up the place... and what a breath of fresh air.

Starting tonight, i was met by 10 willing and happy ladies, mostly nicaraquense, and ranging from 6 to 8, imho, from short spinner to well proportioned.

It was nice to see that the place is trying to get back to life, and if they can keep it up, they might just succeed in making me a regular customer again.

Give it a look see, you might just

Thanks Yardy.

A little known fact about the Vaca Brava.

This site used to be a stop over for the cow drive between Guanacaste and San Jose. The cowboys used the place for rest for themselves and their herb before starting the climb to San Jose.

On the return trip, evidently they stopped there again but this time their pocket were loaded with the profits from the drive. And you guessed it, there was some charming ladies available to massage their aches and pains.

This all happen before the opening of the Costa Rican Pacific railway in 1910 and it makes the Vaca Brava one of the oldest continiously operating mongering place in the country.

And this is where it also gets its name, the Wild Cow.

Wow, if those walls could talk.

Happy mongering

Another one of those conveniently located. Mongering establishment.

If you are coming down from San Jose on the PanAmerican highway, you pass through the Town of Esparza, go down the last of the big hills, and come to the first LARGE river bridge (Barranca river).

1 km west of the bridge you come to the intersection of the Road to Barranca town or you have the choice of continuing toward Puntarenas or yet to Liberia. There at the intersection is also a very busy BUS stop.

Right at the Bus stop is the world famous Vaca Brava (in Puntarenas at least).

12 girls (Dominicanas and Colombianas) are there to serve you. 10, 000 for a pop (exchange rate 570=us$1), Imperial beer at 900, same for chica drinks.

This bar services the locals, the transient road traffic, and our local big rigs drivers. Safe, decently lit, acceptably clean. Spanish is a requisite.

All in all, a good place to stop and relax on your way elsewhere. Roughly 16:00 till 01:00.

You're right my friend

Good news.

The Good Fortune hotel and bar is back in operation, after being closed for nearly 3 months.

There was a change in administration (Oscar is gone, management is now under the supervision of the lady owner).

New coat of paint, the big area in the back is now closed off. Besides that, business as usual

Latest updates from Puntarenas.

Hamburg Bar does not exist anymore, building was torned down and new construction going up.

Good Fortune Hotel & Bar has been closed since beginning of June, no notice when it would, if ever, reopen.

Just a quick note about "Porton Verde" bar. If you are skittish about being seen going in, go east around the street corner to the "Soda Janet" (you can have a quick lunch there, English is spoken by the owner) and there is a door at the far end that connects directly with the Porton Verde bar. (same owners, husband takes care of the Soda, and the Mrs. takes care of the Porton Verde). The girls use it all the time, and so do discreet customers.

The Happy Days bar was open for about 1 year. Like all the Gringo bars in Puntarenas, it worked well at the beginning then faded. Lack of purchasing power from the locals.

The bar was rented out the following year, and the local gangs started to hang around, so it lost all the gringo customers. Unfortunately, a wild shooting with wounded people happened and the police closed it down.

The original owners took it back in hand about six months ago if I remember well, and it is opened only on week-ends. It cannot be considered a MP as there is no girls around, more a drinking man's bar, with 2 TV showing the New York Yankees.

The name on the street sign was rubbed off. But it is located on the second floor of a rather new building for the area with a few tables where you sit and watch the action going on the street below, and there is a restaurant below. A few meters East of hotel Tioga.

was traveling back up to nicaragua from quepos area and had to make a connection in punta arenas, which i missed.

oh well let's see what's up in this worn around the edges, slightly or perhaps a lot, sleazy looking old port town...

walked around down town and checked out a few hotels. most were in the 20$ range but i opted for a cheapie, hotel cabezas for 4000 colones, mostly because it seemed to be cooler than the others and came recommended in a guide book. it ended up being a couple of blocks from where any fun could be had. the lady at the desk said that it was safe but not after 10. noticed the guy smoking crack on the sidewalk without a worry in the world as i set out to find dinner.

on my way i went by a more upscale newish looking joint called "el porton verde' which indeed had a big green gate and weird green hallway that you had to go through to get to the dark bar at the back. the ladies looked bored and were all gordas so i continued on. i saw two houses next door to each other as i made my way to the waterfront for dinner. i later found out that those three are the main bar & *****houses in the area with a few smaller ones rep001tered around downtown, which in itself is quite compact and walkable. decided i would pop in later but it didn't look promising, tough looking dominicanas hanging out front.

anyways i had a nice fish dinner and made my way back. looked in the first place called 'la fortuna'. it had a stage and was quite big but mostly empty and the chicas were nothing special to look at. i didn't like the vibe so went next door.

to my surprise this place seemed to be way different, good vibes, lots of nice younger looking girls, ticas , nicas and dominicanas. there was a juke box and they were dancing and laughing, looks like fun!

noticed a couple of white faces so sat down and met two french canadians also stranded in punta arenas, but they were coming from nica and heading to quepos area.

one of them was gesturing and making hand signals with a very cute girl wearing preppy shorts and a kind of gold shirt. she was very cute with a friendly and mischievous smile and naughty eyes. in short she looked out of place. her and the guy were also writing on the table with their fingers, all of this i figured because he didn't speak spanish. i saw him holding up 3 fingers which i knew meant 30.000 colones, way more than even the gringo price which i was quoted at 13,000. i could tell that he was thinking about it but finally laughed and she gestured that she would come back later.

i asked him if he needed help with spanish and he laughed out loud and said, in a heavily french accented english,
"mais oui, yes, but she don't speak, she don't hear noting."

which of course suddenly and strongly piqued my interest.
a very cute, maybe 25 or so, flirty and semi innocent looking nicaraguan deaf mute in a past-due date costa rican old port town *****house.

i wondered if indeed that is what the premium price was for.

so a few minutes later when she walked by i winked at her, to which she smiled and came by and sat on my lap, all the while looking into my eyes intently. i did the rubbing fingers together gesture for how much, and she nodded my way, as if for me to give a price. i finger painted in the air 13,000 and she laughed and nodded here head eagerly, to my surprise! i called over to the french guy and said she only wants 13 thousand, not 30. i asked if he wanted to go with her, and he asked if i wanted to. to which i replied sure but he saw her first so if he wanted to go then go ahead.

he said go ahead man take her.

so i did. and it was fun. she was sexy and got very wet and got on top and rode me hard, no bbbj though, just covered.

it was a bit weird and hard to communicate but nevertheless i can now say i had sex with a mute, for whatever that's worth.

as i came back out to the bar i practically walked into two policemen who were making their way to the back rooms as we were leaving. my heart jumped a bit but since they didn't even give me a second look i just kept on and sat back down at our table and ordered another cold beer.

sure enough, a full scale raid was in progress and about 10 cops entered the small bar, some of them wearing the heavy vests, and started asking all the girls for their id. i was a bit concerned because i forgot to bring the copy of my passport which i usually carry. the french guys, who were quite drunk and laughing at everything, said not to worry as they wouldn't even look our way, which ended up being the case. i was quite surprised at the difference as to what would have gone down in mexico if the cops would have come and found a few gringos in a *****house in a small town at their disposition for a shakedown.

they were quite thorough and went from table to table, eventually getting around to the patrons as well. no one really paid much mind and the party kept on. the one french guy that had been first talking to my chica actually decided to take the girl to the back room, while the cops were still there! i know it's legal an all in costa rica it just struck me as funny, excuse me officer while i take this sweet girl out back to bang her brains out.

he didn't mind sloppy seconds and came back all smiles as well.

lot's of girls came by and all flirted and touched and rubbed etc in an effort to get us back to the rooms. the dominicanas started to get my attention as they really shook their asses and grinded to the jukebox. they were all very pretty, slim and not the big assed big mouthed dominicanas that one usually sees in cr. there were also lots of cut ticas. i'd say there were a fair number of 7's and 8's.

i was really tempted to go again but knew that it would be quite difficult given the amount i had drunk, so we called it a night and all went home happy to catch our respective buses in opposite directions the next morning.
