[Juggernutt]

Great reports...let me recap:

Hotspot is Sanur. street with a lot of houses there.
Dyana Ayu is a whorhouse in Sanur?
Barukha is a hotel for ST girls and place?

On Seminyak the place to go is Dyana Pura Street? With teh bar Santa Fe?

Prices: From 160.000 rp per hour incl room?!? to 200K?

How clean/safe are these spots?

Hey, I"ll be in Bali tomorrow with NO plans at all. Help! I don't have a hotel booked, place to stay, anywhere to go, anything....
I'm just winging it because I changed my flight from Jakarta... pleeeeease any ideas? I'm not wanting to spend a fortune on a stupid hotel because I live in one 365 days a year, but I wanna stay in someplace half decent. I've been scouring the net all day and can't find too much useful......Please any tips email to me at danaguess@hotmail.com
Thanks!!!

I've read an AP article today regarding the re-opening of Paddy's bar in Kuta. Here is an exerpt:

"...Paddy's Bar, one of the nightspots attacked nearly 10 months ago by suicide bombers on Indonesia's Bali island, reopened over the weekend, staffed by several waiters who were working on the night of the attack.
Hundreds of mostly Australian tourists and expatriates on Saturday night packed the bar, which was reopened in a building 100 yards up the street from its original site.
"Tell the terrorists we are back," shouted one Australian who identified himself only as Mike.
... The Sari Club is still closed, with no word on whether it will reopen..."

Ain't that good news on a day like this, with the horrible reports about the bombing of the Marriott hotel in Jakarta?

How did these two events affect life on Bali today? Business as usual or...?

Hey jF: Excellent job!

So what do you think: Is a non-local (i.e., a Westerner / European) welcome in any of those bars over there on jl. Dyna Pura or is it a 100% locals place?

If you're in Sanur in Mid-September, would you please accept my invitation for a beer (or 2, or 3) at a bar of your choice as a "Thank you" for your great investigative work? Is the 18th of September OK with you? I know you have to work the next day, so is 8 p.m. OK?

Thanks for the travel book advice. I already bought the 'Marco Polo Bali' guide but I am not at all happy with it. Let's see if there's a 'Lonely Planet Indonesia' available at ebay.

Do you have any more observations regarding the scene on the island? I / we (the WSG community) are always happy to learn more about sensual Bali I assure you!

A wee bit more,

Santa Fe is not a street it's a bar on the jl. (steet) Dyna Pura.

There's about 5-10 popular bars there and they get going 10-11ish. I've never partaken in them myslef as once again I work and don't want to waste my time on a 'hunt', but some of the girls a extremely beautiful. It's more of the locals and not all of the women are working, so it's hit and miss.

I stay at hotel Puri Cendana a 100 meters down the street form there. They charge me $15-20 US including gov. tax and breakfast. It's not the best, but for 2 month stretches it works out well. I'll most likely be there mid Sept. as well.

The 'Lonely Planet' travel books are a good investment if you haven't been to a country before.

IV. Where is the Santa Fe street (to repeat JD's question) located?

V. Regarding the 30 or so bars on Santa Fe street (and elsewhere): Do they have rooms there to bring your newfound girlfriend or how does it work?

Charly,

I've taken cabs (always with a meter!) and have them wait if they want to (they always do) and make sure they turn the meter off while waiting. They might only get a few rides a week, so this is a good deal for them. They'll try and hustle money from the house for taking you there as well. Don't think they're on your side. Small talk that goes on in the cab is given to the big boss, as to how much you're willing to spend.

I work in Bali so I don't stay our too late, but I'm sure you can go there easily till 2 or 3 in the morning. They're open days, but much fewer girls. Anik at the Dyana Ayu is my fav. You should have a cabbie take you there the first time, as they're down alley ways (or gangs as they call them). It's very safe, yet might be a bit scarey at first. I tip the girls 5-10 US depending on serve, but it's not mandatory.

Most all the 'play for pay' is in Sanur. There is a place called 'Mini bar' in Kuta with a few girls with too much mileage, and asking too much money. You can get a massage and a little happy ending at a few places but it's not wild like Thailand. Most all the girls are form Java, please don't confuse women living in Bali with Balanese women. They're night and day.

I spend about 3-4 months a year in Bali on business. It's a place rich in culture and beauty. I have fun most every night, but please see the rest of Bali as well. You must make it up to Ubud, it's the garden spot of the world. but there are no women for sale there, so take one with you if needed.

Thanks jF!!!

If I take a cab to any of those places, how do I get back to my hotel then? Do they wait an hour or two outside or do the pimps call them for you (well - I don't speak the local language)? Are they open 24/7 or do they close sometime?

If I want to get there by rental car, how do I get to Barokha and Dyana Ayu?

Seems you know a lot about the scene in Sanur and the rest of Bali. Other than Dyana Ayu, where on the island do you find the cutest girls? Are there any interesting places on the north or on the west side of the island as well or can you find a lay only at the tourist places in the south?

How's the scene organized: are the girls freelancers, do they have pimps, is organized crime involved, are the providers from Java mostly?

Appreciate your comments my friend!

Charly,

Barokha is in Sanur, every cab driver knows of it. It's actually a hotel with about 20-30 girls who work there. No guests, other than by-the-hour. BUT, the place to go for that is Dyana Ayu. All the cabbys know of this place as well. The girls are MUCH better there and don't hustle you for tips before it even starts. I've been there about 15 or more times. ALSO, across the highway is a street where you can find about 20 more '***** houses'. You should be able to get what you want for about $15 U.S.. Just say the word 'suddha'. Which means already. Let them know you've been there before and this is what you've paid. It worked for me more than 20 times last April-May. If you want bar action with more expensive locals try Jl. Dyana Pura in Syminyak. It's not the '***** house' scene, but more of a bar scene, in a much nicer area of town.

Where can you find "Baroek'ak Betngandang"? Must be a brothel of some kind. Is it in Sanur?

Hey Wanja! How's it going down there in Kuta? Lot of action? We are waiting for your DAILY SEX REPORT from Bali! Don't disappoint us!

[Arris Sung]

After searching the forum, I didn't come up on the answer, so I'd appreciate some help.

Given I normally stay at one of the resorts in Nusa Dua, are there escort services in Bali or do I absolutely have get down to Sanur or Kuta to enjoy myself?

Absolutely despise having to sit in cars for extended periods of time when on vacation, so having the entertainment coming to the hotel is really a lot more convenient.

Mate! The whole Island is packed full of hotties. Just relax and have fun, they will catch on and suround you in a matter of minutes. As for price, I never paid more than 120,000 for the whole night. But I had more fun targeting the local girls rather than the hardened pros of Java. I even managed to pick up a few shop assistances that were happy to do anything for a free night out on the [CodeWord140].

Go out late and have fun, thats what this whole Island is about!

Sounds good ; is Santa Fe in Kuta ? any good hotels within walking distance of the action and are these friendly enough to bring newly acquired friends back ?

I am looking forward to going there, from what you have said there seems to be plenty of choice

Cheers

Let you know soon leaving tomorrow for a for week holiday to Kuta Bali I tried to use a local internet cafe for my daily report

Greetings to everyone!

I am going to Kuta in mid-September for my first ever Bali trip. Can anyone with (a lot of) patience :-) explain us the situation there in more general terms. E.g.:

I. Are there SW available at night in the Kuta / Sanur area? What are their prices?

II. Can you bring the girl to your hotel? (****)

III. If you don't want to go to the brothels in Sanur aforementioned by some guy: What are your best alternatives (SW, bars, MP, call-in services...)?

IV. Where is the Santa Fe street (to repeat JD's question) located?

V. Regarding the 30 or so bars on Santa Fe street (and elsewhere): Do they have rooms there to bring your newfound girlfriend or how does it work?

VI. Anyone interested in joining me on my 'nightly hunting trips' when I am there?

And - yes: what do the experts in this forum recommend to someone who's interested in making this stay sexually as much enjoyable as possible?

Anyone?

Hi Jackdaniels,

There is a strip that has a lot of pubs / clubs. Ask the taxi to take you to Santa Fe. Their must be about 30 odd clubs on this road. Also just down the rd is the Spy Bar which is more of a trendy club, but still bloody good! Don't forget that nothing happens till round 11.30pm onwards any day of the week. I have never had so much fun in all my life! You will have a ball!

Is this Santa Fe in Kuta ? Are all these bars well stocked with hotties ?

Cheers.
