San Jose - 2003 Reports

[CaribbeanGringo]

If you live near a 7-Eleven they have a "World Card" that I think gives about a 42 cents per minute flat rate with no hidden surcharges--other retailers have similar cards...

What's the best way to call from the States to San Jose? I'm thinking the right calling card would be much better than my normal long distance service.

Any suggestions? Thanks, guys.

Coxslinger,

In Costa Rica anyone who can goes to the beaches from the day after Christmas until the day after New Years day (this is one of the 2 biggest vacation times of the year), so you will find it dead in San Jose upon arrival and until the 2nd (meaning few if any girls).

While you will find it no problem to get a hotel in San Jose, you will find it difficult to find a room on the beach.

If your sole intention is to stay in San Jose and enjoy girls, I would highly recommend you change your travel itinerary to before Christmas or after New Years.

If you don't mind crowds at the beaches and a non-pro party scene at those locations, the this time period can be fun.

If it was me, I would change my dates.

Hey DonGordo & Shamas,

I will be in the land of milk & honeys on Labor Day weekend. I will meet you guys at the BM for the big monger convention - lol.

Can you guys elaborate on where some of these small bars you are talking about are. I like some of the girls at the BM but you are so right their prices are exorbitant at times. Also what are the qualities of the girls at these other bars and is it open during the day and till what time at night.

Thanks.

I will be staying at the Presidente.

My name for her is Yo Hot Mama. I don't remember her name, just a really hot local girl.

I plan to stop by on the 28th for your Tica Stabbing Fest. Is it a BYOT or will you have an open wet bed ?

I'm planning on going to the Massing of the Mongers at the DR the next day, should be quite interesting swapping notes with all the guys.

Was that Hazel at the Piano Bar??
She is really something special.

I agree with your overall assessment of the chica situation. Over the last few years, I have also gravitated to the smaller bars and the on-premise brothels / massage parlors. The Blue Marlin is a great place to have a few drinks, but the chicas are all looking for too much $$. I will take Idem and New Fantasy girls anytime .


The countdown has begun for the Don Gordo Birthday Bash on Aug 28. There is gonna be a good group in town and a graet time will be had.

I'm not trying to stir up a mess, DR has it's points and I know many guys swear by it. I like Idem and New Fantasy. Park Hotel usually has a few good local girls as does Jochlyns. DRs big selling point is the large and deversified assortment of ladies there. Key Largo has a few good ones. Some of the prettiest ladies at DR are the bartenders. That's why I like to have a few beers there late at night.

Most of the DR girls glitz it up more than the girls at the other places, but I'm not a glitz type of person.

Some of the small bars, New York, Nashville, noPiano and News Cafe have pretty bartenders/waitresses. One Sunday the Piano Bar had a true honey tending bar. I oogled her for four beers.

Thats my two Colones worth

Panama City ...probably nicer and more upscale=$$$....San jose Gringo Gulch= sex cenrtral....How can you top the del Rey?

[Coxslinger]

I am planning my first trip to Costa Rica later this year. My tentative dates are December 30 through January 5. I'm wondering if anyone could tell me if the demand/price hotels goes up during this time frame because of the holiday season. I am also wondering if I will need to make credit card reservations for a room in advance, or can a guy just get a room anywhere? At this point, Del Rey, the Presidente or something clean & tica friendly that is close to New Fantasy would be my first choice for accomodations.

Any info from experienced winter travelers would be greatly appreciated.

CR is much better to me. It's safer, cleaner, cheaper, better girls, more girls, more MP's. It has better weather (meaning it's 75deg in the day instead of 95deg with 99 percent humidity). It's also closer the the States. However you can get by better in PTY if you don't speak Spanish.

[Man]

How does CR compared with Panama City?
