Posts: 6A little help from my friends
Hy guys,
I'm coming to S. Josč December the 24th after a long time out of Costa Rica. Based on your experiences, during the Christmas days (24-26 dec) the town will be totally closed (especially considering the night)? Do you suggest me to go directly to Jaco in these days? Furthermore, can somebody suggest me a good hotel with nice pool and chica friendly? Wich is best casino to play hold'them? Finally, Jaco is only beach town with a good night activity in Costa Rica? Thank a lot in advance, hope to see some of yours in SJ having the chance to offer a drink!
Bye RIODJA

1. Not much
2. Jaco, READ The Forum.
3. No
4. Yes
To Scuba you will need to go to the coast. The Panama/C.R. Caribbean Coast is most likely the best bet.
I did snorkel on the Pacific in the north, Tamarindo and in the South near Quepos, Manual Antonio Park.

Posts: 39San Jose (12 nights) !! Phillyman
Phillyman -- 10 to 12 nights in San Jose (on vacation) is LONG time, especially if you are travelling on your own (without a buddy or wingman).
My suggestion would be to spend 2 or 3 nights in the beginning, then head for the coast and one of the beach areas (I am not a specialist on beach locations) but would keep it to Jaco or Manuel Antonio areas.
The 2 or 3 nights upfront will give you time to acclimate to the scene, and you might even find a lady that you will invite to join you at the beach. I am one who prefers to do the GFE experience rather than flipping every morning, noon and night -- it all depends on your choice of what to do. Then go to the beach, but leave yourself the option of staying there till you depart, or come back to San Jose for 1 or 2 nights at the end. If you are a beach vacation person, I am sure you will really enjoy the Pacific coast of Costa Rica
There is not much to do in San Jose during the day -- besides hanging out at one of the malls, and having a nice lunch somewhere different. I usually am working during the day, so really other guys on this board might assist with daytime activities in a little more detail. But 10 to 12 days sounds a bit much to me.
The usual monger routine is to hit one of the massage houses late morning, then a sportsbar or HDRey for beers in the afternoon, nap, and then night scene.
Scuba Diving -- cannot comment on that, but any concierge will assist.

Posts: 39San Jose/Update
I was in San Jose last week Wed and Thurs nights -- and have been there several times before. Stayed in various hotels, so here is the update:
Crowne Plaza Coribici Hotel -- chica friendly only if you pre-register your guest (and you need the correct name because she will more than likely be asked for her ID card). However, I got away with it because I was a late night check-in and my GFE was sitting in the lobby waiting for me. But I did mention "2 guests" when making the reservation -- that is half the battle won ! There was no additional charge for the guest.
There is a strong hotel security presence (front door and right by the elevators on the first floor). Some polite greeting "hola amigo" every time you see them will help wonders.
San Palacio -- last time I stayed there I had to pay an additional $20.00 for the guest. ID was required.
Presidente (Downtown) -- this last trip was a first time stay at this hotel. They have implemented a strict dress policy for the chicas (no mini skirts, now shorts etc). I discussed this with the night manager and he told me that they have done this now for about a year -- just trying to keep it that way. Chica friendly in the sense that you do not pay additional room charges but ID is necessary. I had an OK room -- internet is available in all rooms but wifi only in some of them (so ask first). Flat screen TV has more english channels than you care to have ! Not sure if I would stay there again (all depends on what the rest of my time is about doing). Location is good for a stroll up and down the boulevard after a working day. It is in walking distance to the Del Ray Hotel.
Del Ray Update -- knowing a few insiders there (regulars), by all accounts and their reports, business is "bad" (for them). That means negotiation is easier than before, but the opening bid is $100.00 -- I had a one that opened at $120.00 but she dropped to $100.00 -- an 8 out of 10 Colombian lady, who was well prepared with slip on leg-ins to deal with the Presidente dress code !! Quite a few ladies have this accessory in their purses.
So, my selection was restricted to those dress appropriately, and actually had a great conversation with a young blonde Tica, who spoke perfect English, fitted my criteria, but admitted that she would encounter problems at the Presidente. So, for those staying at that Hotel, be aware of this real code in place and select accordingly.
Del Ray and Key Largo was overflowing -- and this can become a bit annoying especially as you navigate to the restroom.
The live music at Key Largo was so-so -- heard better bands there previously. Interesting that both places empty out quickly after 10pm or so -- either the chicas go home or relocate to other places (not sure where).
I did take a C1000 taxi from the Del Ray to the Presidente (with my regular GFE who wanted to go there to chat to a friend).
The selection at both places covers just about any size, shape, hair color, breast size, culo size, that anyone will need or like !! Seems like breast enhancements are a full craze because it was hard to find any natural ones!!
Enjoy and be safe !!

Posts: 17Planning for 10-12 nights
This is going to be my first time making a trip to CR. I am planning to be there in Mid-December. I am giong to stay in San Jose and from reading all the reports it seems like there is just sex and casinos. I have a few questions hopefully one of you will be kind in answering.
1. Is there anything else to do in the day time besides sex/casinos?
2. Also, can anyone recommend a beach in Costa Rica with the same type of night life.
3. I would like to do scuba diving while staying in San Jose. Is that possible?
Last question. Is 10-12 nights too many nights in San Jose?

If they are going to be open....some days they are not open.....they typically do not have anyone at the door ( doorman) until around 11 PM, and it may not actually open until around 11:30-12 AM.
It is a late night place which goes to around 4-5 AM.

Yeah man, I've squeezed about as much juice as I possibly could out of that "Sosua turnip." Time to move on to bigger and better. I definitely will report on my "happenings" in CR for January and plan to "photograph the hell outta some CR Boobies &Bunda," lol.
PLEASE LET ME KNOW how D'Pelufo goes!! They used to have some very nice pictures of their babes on their website but it doesn't seem to be functional anymore.
FYI: If anyone is planning to stay at SL between the 14th-16th don't get your hopes up (like I did) because they are BOOKED SOLID!! I would like to shake the shit out of whoever got lucky enough to get a room (just kidding, lol).
Thanks again for the great info bro. I am definitely going to check out some of those spots, but I am first going to have to be able to pull myself away from HDR, SL, and Key Largo! I know in fact I do plan to check out HLH, Relax, and New Fantasy.
Now, if I can just get some people to comment on some good restaurant recommendations.....

Another low end club is VIPS Taberna, Ave. 11, between Calles 1 and 3, which technically is a strip club but you probably will not see much dancing on the stage. I dropped by a few times around 7pm after finishing sessions at the nearby nearby massage joints (pensions) Muses and Krysis. There was not much of a selection but I have been told that the selection gets better as the night goes on. This place truely looked and felt low end from the few minutes I spent inside each visit. Beers were about $2 U.S. and a half hour of full service was about $20 U.S.
Two upper scale strip clubs are Club Monaco, Ave. 9, Calle 6 and D'Pelufo, Alejuela(near SJO). Monaco has been said to have some nice talent but a gringo tax has also been reported(locals pay 15,000 Colones for full service while gringos are quoted $50.00 U.S., about 28,000 Colones).
D'Pelufo has another location in San Pedro as well. I have heard great things about D'Pelufo and the chicas on their website look great. However, I am hearing widely contradicting accounts of the price for full service. I have been told as low as $20.00 U.S. and as high as $100.00 U.S for one hour. This place is considered high end by San Jose standards so my guess is that the price is higher than Pantera. Hope to make it over to Monaco and D'Pelufo during my upcoming trip and I will report back.
There are many other similar types of set-ups throughout San Jose, the above are just what I have experienced and heard about. Strip clubs Hollywood and Atlantis are to be avoided at all costs as they are well known rip-off joints.
Alcasar and Lipstick, which are on the list you attached, have been around for a while and from what I have read and have been told are on the higher end in terms of the cost of full service($100 U.S.). Havn't had the chance to drop into these either since I usually finish up at nearby Krysis and Muses late afternoon while both clubs are still closed.
Let us know how your January trip goes. As you know, like you I visited the Dominican Republic a few times and turned to CR for a new landscape.
