Jaco / Jaco Beach

1. Do not know anything about Crocs.

2. Week days as well as weekends are good in Jaco. Since most of them come there and stay at the boarding houses. In the evening they are at cocal. Girls do like a month stint. Then they go home and come back again. Jaco is good for them because there are no San Jose type big city competition.

Thanks for the info. Nice to know that there's action during the week. Trying to decide to combine my trip with a first time trip to Panama.

I've been to CR a few times but Jaco only once. And that was at the Cocal. One guy on another site like Crocs because it's away from the action but still GFriendly. I'm thinking of going again this fall. Prob split between SJ and Jaco. Two Questions:

1. What do you know about Crocs?

2. Are there many girls that show up during the week at Cocal? I've only been there around the weekend.

Thanks

Is there any benefit to using local currency (Colons) vs. $US?

Based on 550 to 1 and say ave price of $100 US per girl one would expect to donate 55,000 colons.

I'm hearing the price is better if you convert to Colons. Any truth to that?

It's better to exchange, most hotels will give you 520 / dollar, banks 540 / dollar. I

Do Not exchange at the airport they only give you around 460/480 / dollar.

If you agree on $100 they are happy with 50 k, from there average everything out at 500 / dollar, $80/40 k, if they ask you for the remaining 2,000 or 3,000 colones just say as they do, sorry no change, the massage parlors will give you exact change also, if you use dollars they win, you need colones for the girls propinas, again better to have colones.

Hope this helps.

Dollars vs. Colones depends on how comfortable you are negotiating a price in colones. If you tell a girl $100 then try to pay her in colones, what conversion rate do you plan to use? If you use 500 to one and pay her 50,000 you save roughly 8 dollars, but you are ripping her off. If you pay her the going bank rate that was 543 yesterday, you made things complicated but neither gained or lost in the transaction. If you tell her cincuenta mil (50,000) colones during the negotiation and she accepts then you agreed to roughly $92. Cincuenta mil and cien dollars are easy numbers to throw out. They are round numbers easy for a girl to understand and say yes or no.

IMHO daytime for the girls is sleep well into afternoon, do Landry and other chores and get ready for the night. They stay in many kind of low end motels. I had one regular who said they do not like to do ST during daytime. Why? I do not know. Possibly they want you little drunk and agree to their price. Unless the girl is into you she will leave in the morning or after one shot. Maybe money talks and if you offer the right price who knows. Personally I would be too tired from the previous night and not interested in daytime action.

You can do day trips to Manuel Antonio and take in the sights.

Any recommendations for day game in Jaco? Or is it best to take the number from someone you hit it off with on a previous night and have them come back for a visit?

Howdy,

I've been to the Cocal before, but only around the weekends. Is there action in the Cocal during the week? Is there action other places in Jaco? I'm thinking about spending a week there. Maybe longer only because I have friends (a couple) who will be spending two weeks just in Jaco (his wife lets him have fun, but only like Jaco). I've been to San Jose several times so I know that the preferred is San Jose during the week and Jaco on weekends, but I'd like to hang with my friends so am wondering what the week is like at Jaco and fairly immediate environs. Mainly, is there enough action during the weekdays and Sunday to suffice.

Thanks

Great advice. If you don't know her don't negotiate for extended time. It rarely works out. Check her out first and if you find her compatible then try to negotiate longer term. Many, for a variety of reasons can't do all night or wife up. Generally they have kids they have to get home to or arrange care for. It is much easier to wife up with one that you have been communicating with for a while from the states. It gives them time to make arrangements and they like to get you off one on one away from the competition.

Thanks for the advice and I agree personality and chemistry play a big role. And secondly just be nice. That goes a long way.

I generally never have issues striking up a convo and getting interest. My thoughts are to time it to between 10 pm and midnight and if you're still interested in her after the initial encounter you could offer her an additional $100 for another pop. Or $250 for 3 pops. I can't speak for others but generally it takes me a while to get going again and that would take up most of the night.

From her perspective maybe if she's lucky at tops she might find another client. This basically guarantees her 2. 5 clients which she might not find otherwise.

Worst case take her number and have her visit the following afternoon as I hear the day game is weak in Jaco.

Happy hunting but the best advice anyway, take her short term to start, no matter what your intent. If she digs you, what's up her tomorrow and you got a much better shot.

You don't want to negotiate before testing the goods, especially if she is a 9 or 10. Test drive that shit.

There is no best way to negotiate TLN in Jaco, nothing consistently works.

Spot on. The best way and close to the only way to get all night with anything of quality in Costa Rica, is to return visit.

Once you spend some time with one, if you have some chemistry, you can wife up for the cost of bringing her along and a $100 a night.

Ends up more, you got to feed and drink her among other things.

First trip, one taker out of ten asked but got two that I hit it off with during short term and got numbers.

Second trip, told them I was coming and asked if they wanted to go away for a few days and both said yes.

Third trip down was pure glory, a repeat and went to hot springs in Arenal for 4 days.

Fourth trip in a few weeks. End of July.

Stick to your prices. I pay this and I expect that, expect some turn downs and keep hunting.

What you are looking for is in Sousa and Asia.

Whats the best way to negotiate a rate for the night?

I've read girls typically try and fit in multiple clients so if you show up between 12 and 1 am things slow down and they may be more open to accepting one price for the entire night, but don't want to miss out on the talent either.

Another option may be to offer say $70 per shot. So even if they take the entire night to help you finish 3 x that's still $210 plus tip in their pocket. Likely more than they'd make other wise in a night and this is guaranteed $.

Any other suggestions?

There is no best way to negotiate TLN in Jaco, nothing consistently works. This is the economics of Jaco. About 5 miles from Jaco is Los Suenos resort. It consists of a golf course, an elite Marriott, a marina for fishing, upscale restaurants and hundreds of private homes and condos. The condos starting price is in the 600 to 700 thousand range. Fishing from the marina starts at about $1000 for the boat per day and goes to over $3000. In other words, the people staying here and fishing out of here have money. They are not coming to Jaco just to monger. For guys like these, a girl who would cost $500 plus for an hour it is no problem for them to give them $500 or more to spend several hours. Get a group of guys renting a private house for a bachelor party. It is a one time thing for them and to get to spend some time with women who could be centerfold models they are willing to open their wallets. Many of the girls working at the Cocal, worked at the Del Rey in the past. They go to the Cocal because they can more easily find customers who will pay a hundred or more. At the Del Rey most of the guys who go there now are experienced mongers who hear one hundred and start trying to get them to go for less. If you get to the Cocal between 7 pm and 10 pm it is early. Getting girls to go for less than their price is not easy. They would rather chance not making $80 or $100 from you than missing the guy who will give them $300. If they go with you it will be hurry up and finish so I can get back out and find #2. There is a girl to girl network of knowing where to go to entertain for private parties. Many of the hottest women rarely are seen at the Cocal. At times you will see groups of 8 or 10 girls leave the pool area, hop in a van and take off. There are close to 50 rooms in the Cocal and the Condo next door, the Vista del Mar, has room for another 40 to 60 guys. There are generally close to 200 women who pass through the Cocal on a good Friday or Saturday night. The ratio may look like 7 or 8 to one, a buyers market, until you take into account they girls may have had 3 customers before 10 pm. At this point I have had ones that I have known for years, sit with me and drink and finish out the night with me for a couple hundred dollars. They had already earned what they needed for this trip. Now if someone came along and offered them a ridiculous amount they would go. Then you have to look at it form their side. If it is 10 pm, how many times is this guy going to want to have sex before 9 am? So if you are 40, fit and handsome, the price may differ than if you are 65 fat and worn out. Who will be the easiest customer? Contrary to popular belief having sex with us is not something that really turns them on. If they had to choose between one of us and their Tico boyfriend, if the money is the same, we loose every time.

It never hurts to ask and try. You will be turned down with regularity if your idea of the value of their time does not agree with what they feel their time is worth.

Thanks can you suggest an upscale place with 4 bedrooms that's close to all the action. I'm looking into Vista Mar penthouse as well as Diamonte Del Sol, any other recommendations that could work? I'm thinking with 4 people its not really worth it to get a mansion.

I stayed 3 days it wasn't enough for sure.

I'd suggest vista Mar., it was perfect for my stay 3 bedroom condo. Right downstairs is Cocal and down the block from all the action that's how I like it.

You can check there web site, a 4 bedroom penthouse is available. VIP service is available chef etc. For me I only want to be in my room to fuck and sleep, so a chef wasn't of interest.

I see you mention Panama, you might consider Sosua. It's a similar layout to Jaco with everything in close proximity. I haven't been there recently but have several trips on my belt DR IMO / E it's more Wild Wild West, but it has a bit more to offer party wise an CR more adventure wise. There pros and cons its all your opinion you can read all about it. One thing I really enjoy about Sosua is the beach, Jaco cannot compare. There is restaurants and bars one after another.
