2007 Rio de Janeiro Reports

[Pipe Layer99]

I was in Rio for a day in November. As I only had Sunday night, the only termas I could go to was L'Uomo.

I am going back to Rio next week and need to decide between going back to L'Uomo or giving 4x4 a try (or do both - I have a few more days). Any feedback appreciated.

Since you already saw Luomo, try another one. In my opinion 4 x 4 is great.
There are so many good looking women there you can't go wrong. They have all shapes and sizes - something for everyone.
Don't forget about the other termas either (Monte Carlo, Solarium, Terma65, Terma 502, etc). I wish I was going next week, I'd take you to them.
It would be great to see that kid in a candy store look on your face when you see the girls and when you come back from the room.

Have fun. DD

Hey!

Also, i have a Sony Vaio Laptop for sale, and was wondering where is the best place in Rio to sell your laptop. I need to sell it as i have 3 now and its just to much. It cost me over 3000 US Dollars, so its the top spec TX3 model. If anyone can help me, i will buy them a drink in Rio! Please PM with info or if you know anyone that is looking for one.

That might be a bit tricky. You do know that brasilians are broke. Well try through BALCAO, which is local newspaper for selling used stuff. Only thing is that I doubt that you ever will be able to sell your laptop, because nobody will pay to you the price you paid for it. You may get R$ 3000 if you're really lucky. You do know that brasilians buy everything in installments, so finding someone with cash..... Well good luck.

I was in Rio for a day in November. As I only had Sunday night, the only termas I could go to was L'Uomo. Which was the one I wanted to go to anyway, having read Bubba's report.

I did have some trouble finding it, even though Bubba's directions are totally correct. What I hadn't realized from his report however was that the entrance to L'Uomo is indeed on the first floor of a mall but on the outside of the building.
Receptionists were two giggly girls who had excellent English and explained everything very nicely.

Changing rooms and showers were excellent, although I found the relax room somewhat cold.

Unfortunately, the rest of the experience was a bit of a disappointment. When I entered the boite around 9 PM, there were only about 10 girls present and maybe just as many men. Maybe because it was Sunday? I didn't want to sit around and drink too much, so I soon sat down next to a brunette whose name (I think) was Isabella. Didn't speak a word of English, and I don't speak Portuguese, only some broken Spanish. She had a very nice body and face though. We tried to chat for 30 minutes or so and then went to a cabine. The cabine I had was too hot and the girl's performance was so so. She had told me she hadn't been working there for a long time, and maybe for once this was true. Or maybe it was just me (although not plain ugly I am no Don Juan either and over 40).

Back in the boite I talked for a little while to another much more lively girl whose English was excellent, but I was spent.

I am going back to Rio next week and need to decide between going back to L'Uomo or giving 4x4 a try (or do both - I have a few more days). Any feedback appreciated.
By the way, I will be staying in the Meridien. Anyone knows of a pharmacia nearby?

I don't think it would hurt to visit any of the t's in Rio. Women are arriving on a daily basis for Carnival. From this point on, it can only get better us. Don't forget to check out Help too!

Ask the front desk for the location of a pharmacy. They are dime a dozen in the Copa area. I can't imagine walking more than two blocks before encountering one.

[Bubba Boy]

I don't think you are looking hard enough.

All the addresses are here
http://www.internationalsexguide.inf...1&page=2&pp=15

Scroll down to "part 2" for Terma addresses.

Santa Clara is a great spot, closest Terma is Lúomo, just a few blocks away. Monte Carlo just another 2 or so blocks from that. Centaraus also quite close, jump in a taxi though - R10. 4x4 is in centro, not that close but worth the trip.

[Infamous1]

Everybody keeps talking about 4x4, Luomo, Monte Carlo, and Centaurus. The the problem is I cant find an exact address or location where these places are. Everyone talks about being there, but now how to find it or where it is. Please help. I'll be staying in Copacabana on Rua Santa Clara, so I'm not too sure how far these places are according to my apartment. Any information on how to get to these places is extremely helpful.

[Urcarioca]

Just got back from Luomo.

I heard a lot of buzz telling Luomo is becoming a low-end place.

I just check it out tonight: still a nice terma with new robes, new chairs in the relax, diner (so and so) and really nice girls.

I tried the 2 hot showers and they were working well, they didn't overcharge the drinks and no pressure from the GDP at all.

IMHO, they were a bunch of 6-7 and i saw three 9's.

I still recommend it for the newbies, expensive though.

PS: I miss Shayla, Sheila, Michelle.

Hey!

Greetings! Hope everyone is having a great start to 2007!

Anyway, i was wondering if anyone has any info or photos of a girl called Samather working at Club 400 in Barra. She has not been working there since Sept of 2006, but worked there fore 2 years. She is around 25, please PM if anyone had her or knows where she is (another place or even Europe?)

Also, i have a Sony Vaio Laptop for sale, and was wondering where is the best place in Rio to sell your laptop. I need to sell it as i have 3 now and its just to much. It cost me over 3000 US Dollars, so its the top spec TX3 model. If anyone can help me, i will buy them a drink in Rio! Please PM with info or if you know anyone that is looking for one.

Also, just to advise, i was in Caxis the other day, just outside Rio, and there is a place could Club 137, its 10 REALS for 10mins, cheap but the talent was very bad!

The taxi who took me home from a termas the other day handed me a brochure for what he said was a new one in centro called:

Le Palace
Rua do Mercado 25 Centro Prc XV
Em frente ao predio da Bolsa de Valores
2507-5720

According to the brochure it has sauna, suites with jacuzzis and strip shows. It is open from 3PM - 1AM.

Anyone have any experience?

This is an old termas that has been cosed for reform for some time and has just opened for business. I heard that the owners are foreign, maybe American

[Bubba Boy]

I was at Lúomo last week. The talent was ok, nothing special. Julie was still there, she is a smoking hot Morena. Babi is also nice, will do anything, lighter skin and blond. Ingrid of course is always good and is still there. Being a smallish terma the talent can be hit and miss. Was also at 4x4 last week, found the talent a little lacking but with 100+ girls you will find something.

I don't know how many days you have or what days you have but if you have 3 days I would do this.

Day 1) (depending on the day). Lúomo again. It is best Tuesday to Friday. Check it out early, around 5 and you will see the most girls. If there is nothing you like you can always jump on the metro and go to 4x4. Lúomo is right on the metro station. Or you could go to Monte Carlo, it is 1 block over from Lúomo, and about 3 blocks closer to the beach, which puts it right on the beach, a 5 minute walk.

Day 2) Check out something new, maybe centaraus or Solarium or Monte/4x4 if you got stuck at Lúomo for the night.

Day 3) Go back to the place you like.

Try all places because you are only in Rio a few days and the entrance to each place is only $25 or so ($50 for Centaraus). Hence don't be afraid to try one place and walk out and try another on the same day. You are a long time dead, enjoy yourself now when you have the chance.

Speaking of rip-offs…

Right up there with taking cash advances on your credit card to finance your Rio trip, in the not-so-bright things people do department, is paying for someone to take you to a termas. I have seen this sight all too often lately and all I have to say is “Just DON’T do it.” All I ever see a “guide” do is bring them through the door, explain the prices to them, give them a tour of the facility, smoke smelly cigars and laugh to themselves about what a fool they are. Hello! The receptionists in all of these places speak English, prices are prominently displayed, you can walk around yourself or ask the receptionist to show you around and you won’t feel like a fool when your realize you have just been taken for more of a ride than the apartment rental company that charged you R$75 for the R$45 ride from the airport.

BubbaBoy has compiled a guide with enough information on the major termases to get you there and even includes information on what to do once you are inside. You do not need to pay some loser desperately trying to suck the blood out of another gringo to take you there. To me it is like paying someone to walk your pet rock.

I agree 100% with this post, I been posting for what it seems like forever about this very same topic there NO need to pay these P.I.M.P.S./"guides" !! to show you around to places you can find alone from websites (posts, reports, or from guys that are hanging around Mia P. etc) for FREE!

Save your $$$$ for the girls.

UPDATE: I ran into another one of these "guides" last night. I almost lost my dinner listening to him laying it on thick with yet another gullible tourist about how much he could do for him. It is hard for me to believe that what seem to be otherwise intelligent people pay these losers $300+ (that is dollars) a week for their “Services.” I am going to do my part to help make these people go away by putting up a free web site describing how useless they are and providing links to legitimate resources. I hope these guys still remember how to sell used cars back in the US. (If I come across like I really despise scammers and leeches there is a reason -- I do).

Funny Side Note: While doing some research I came across one of the guide sites. Interestingly the S was replaced with $ ($ervice). I guess because that is what they really care about.

Last time I was in Rio, I noticed a strip club/adult theater next to the balcony bar. My gut feeling is it was a rip off joint. So I did not go in. I am planning my next Rio trip for May....

My date and I went in about a month ago. The cover was R$60 which included two drinks. We were there to see the live sex show. After about 10 minutes and one really fat ugly girl after another, my date wanted to leave. I never argue with her when she is right (and rarely when she is wrong). The place was almost vacant with one asian guy trying to extract himself from an especially gross and persistent girl.

As we say, I took one for the team here. No reason for anyone else to even think about going into this place. If you have friends who do not read this board and are visiting Rio, make sure they know to avoid Holiday Bar next to Balcony.
