Santo Domingo

[RickFlorida]

I quite like meeting girls on the street. Besides the Conde, which really is as much an open air brothel as much as it is a public street, wherever you encounter an attractive woman you can make a play. Much more often than not, I know within the first couple of minutes of conversation how likely I am to get what I want. It's not one of the better methods for short term visitors because it can be inefficient. You could eat up a day or two chatting up girls if you aren't careful. If you have the time to spare it can be fun. As for the conversation tactics, I keep it direct after an initial smile and greeting ("buenas" or "buenos dias") and invite them to a hotel or cabana.

The Condo?

What's that?

I use Seeking.com with success but I start before my visit. Whittle down the list and FaceTime to make my final selections. I tried Dominican Cupid but never met anyone.

Many more options though in the forum.

Just wondering what is the best way to contact females! Recommendations for websites or clubs to visit wil be highly appreciated.

Might sound corny but I'm really excited for this trip in April. I have been to PR, Brazil, Colombia, Thailand but people always say that nothing compares to the DR!

[TallDarkUsa]

I'm surprised there isn't any info on that in the forum. .

There is! Just hard to weed through all the ones of sarcasm from people replying to questions.

Thanks, is an apartment a bad idea? Found them for less than $40 a day.

An apartment or an apatahotel would be fine there are several in the area.

Trip.

Actually, recent information is kind of lacking. I, too, will be there for a couple of non-consecutive nights next month and would love to get some current gouge on places let's say near the Obelisk on George Washington Ave. I'm also going to be in Santiago a bunch too.

Since you've been to Brazil, Colombia, and Thailand, the only thing I'd suggest is to lower your expectations. The DR can be a lot of fun, but its most important virtue to me (in terms of hobbying) is a 3-hour flight from NY. And I'm saying it as someone who does love the DR, LOL.

Well Kinda. As a matter of fact the only thing that I can think can compare to the DR is PR, Brazil, Columbia, or Thailand Get the picture.

I'm coming to Santo Domingo for the first time in may, looking around Expedia for hotels and got a few questions.

What area of town would you recommend looking?

Found some cheap apartments, is it a bad idea not having the security of a hotel for a first timer?

Thanks guys, looking forward to contributing to the board.

Hotel Palacio, Zona Colonial.

[RickFlorida]

First Triple and with the possibility of a on going curfew, I'd suggest the Zona Colonial / Gazcue area.

Sorry for all the questions.

Found these.

Hotel jade, Hotel Discovery, Maison Gautreaux.

Hotel Enrique, Hotel Alcaldeza.

Does any of the ring a bell to you guys, and will they be guest friendly?
