Imagine it? You have already experienced it! I even went to one of those legit blind massage places in Santo Domingo and the massage was still super garbage. They really only rub lotion on you and call that a massage. See you in Pattaya where a real massage is literally 5 times cheaper than DR's fake massage.

Massage / Spa
I'll be in town for Super Bowl weekend. I am fairly new to Sousa (5 trips since 2019). I can never find a good massage. EVERY place wants to offer me extras after 8 min overly oily half ass back rub. I know Sosua is not SEA but it hard to imagine there is no decent body massage or foot massage. It would be heaven after a long flight. Guess I'll have to save more money and go back to Cebu or Patts.

Don't forget that stoplights / stop signs are mere suggestions, especially at night. And look both ways (twice) on one way streets as, again, it is merely a suggestion as to the traffic flow. Lastly, motos can come at you from any direction, including sidewalks.
Other than that, it's all good.

I have seen this advice posted in the past -- pay in pesos, not in dollars. But as long as one is aware of the exchange rate, I do not understand the disadvantage in paying in dollars. Would someone please explain?

My trip is fast approaching. What is a good price from the Puerto Plata airport to Sosua? Also where is a good place to do money exchange for best rates?
Its $25 to Sosua. When you get out the airport goto there will be guys standing next to a big ass sign with their cab prices. But its $25 to Sosua. Enjoy.

When you do not know you do not know
These drivers are ripping you guys off laughing all the way. A cab from PP to Sosua cost 20 to 30 bucks at most. They have the port locked down so you guys think they are the only options. Your driver was keeping others from ripping you off because you were his pigeon. Locals pay 1 dollar to travel between PP to Sosua. Sosua is full of cab drivers to bring you back. Glad you had fun but no way should you have to pay $200 for transportation. Day time action at the time of day you were there is a challenge. Glad you were able to fine some.
4 girls in the short period of time?

Sorry for the late response. It was very good. I keep it short. We dock in amber cove. Because they was working on the roads, it took. About an hour to get there. While I was there I spent about 500 usd. This includes four different girls. Two in Sosua and two in a club we went to on the way back to the cruise. That also includes my food at baileys which I really didn't eat bc I felt like shit. I party hard everyday one the cruise. Also included all the beer I had. I had a few beers and bought a few for the girl in the club. I left around 1 and got there around 10. It was dead but there was still some out. You can still find something you want. The only bad thing was when it was time to leave, that's when all the girls was coming out. I was like a kid in a candy store. People I met on the cruise want to take another cruise on the same ship going to the same place. Will I come back to Sosua. I would love to but more than likely I wouldn't do it by myself. It will cost you 120 for the van round trip. I ended up paying close to 200 bc I tip him bc he took to the club and he was like my bodyguard. He didn't let people rip me off. I didn't need it bc I travel a lot but it was nice. I recently move back to New York last minute. Unless I see a cheap flight, doesn't look like I'm coming to back at least this year. Happy hunting.

LOL. Yeah it seems he had already done a good job of that himself and did not want to let others in on the action.

I would really love to find something near the port, but I'm not holding my breath on that. We're also stopping at St. Maarten a few days before where the spots are within walking distance of the port. At this point I think I may catch a cab to Black Beards, but I was curious on what you decided to do.

Try 5000 pesos for the whole night. Or 3000 pesos for one attempt. You can always pay a bonus if the service is good.

It certainly was not a great beach for people that have been to Destin, Cancun, Aruba, Maldives, and the likes. Sosua is the same. Not too many people that know mongering in other places sing its praises.
Your essential point is correct. That opinion from people who have not seen any better, have little value. Personally, I have been to, out of the "great places" you cite, to Maldives and having lived in Singapore, have been to the well known beaches / Islands of Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia, not to speak of beaches in Southern Europe. On the other side of the world, I have been to some beach places in Aus / NZ and most importantly, have been to French Polynesia that few anywhere will have visited, with first / business class air travel, mostly Singapore Airlines, courtesy of my employers. Coming from that backdrop, I find Sosua to be perfectly fitting for my needs. Never picked a woman from the street. Women (blanquitas and morenitas and all in between) visit me at my convenience and have always had pleasant experiences (shared with a handful of people on this forum) beach, food and woman wise plus the color of the water, often a languid turquoise, three and a half hour flight away. What can beat that? I hope those that do not like Sosua, stay away but curiously the name reverberates even on the ISG forums of distant shores.

Sounds great, and thank you for the replies. I stayed near the main strip. I am very interested in checking out Santo Domingo next time! An additional benefit is there you always have the option of 30 minutes drive to Boca Chica for more action, if you get bored as well, correct?
Ideally, I like to keep a girl around for a minimum of dinner and overnight until noon (6-12 hours minimum, up to several days if I make a great connection). It's difficult for me to relax and enjoy myself when the ladies are watching the clock, just want to get it over with as fast they can to get back to the bar / street as soon as possible. I'm not a fan of rushed service at all, half of my enjoyment at this age is dependent on if she is able to relax and enjoy herself. If her pussy is dry, I am not interested at all. I realize that everything is transactional and feelings are an illusion, but there can be still a pleasant sweetness shared in the mutual experience. Even if its fake. The general expectation of 1 hour (or less) short time and even after having been clear about what I wanted to do and what I wanted to pay on google translate, more and more money being asked for in Sosua was not my style, maybe if I was 20 years younger, that seems like a younger man's game. Although, I definitely did have some great experiences in Sosua that weren't rushed or greedy.
