Aruba

[Stroked]

So am I safe in St Nicholas in the evening.

[ArubaLover]

I went back to Aruba in January on business. I was down there from a Sunday to a Wednesday. It was a fast trip but saw some different things from my December trip. I stayed in an Airbnb near Palm Beach.

I arrived on Sunday and did not get a chance for any mongering Sunday night.

I worked all day on Monday, and finally got some time to have some fun Monday night. Unlike December, there were very few VZ's. I did not see any at Gusto's. So I had to stay up till 1 am and go to The Mill. I met a smoking hot VZ who was very nice but she said she could not leave till 2 am. Anyway, I sweetened my offer so she would leave with me at 130 am. We agreed*on $150 and went back to my apartment. She was stroking me the whole 5 minute drive to my apartment. We got back there and had a great time. She was a spinner and was 4'10". She had big fake bolt-on's and was a GFE. I dropped her back at The Mill at 245 am and went to bed.

Tuesday, I had to take my boss to the airport and continued to San Nicholas afterwards at 1:30 pm. There were a lot of chicas, and I went for a thin one with fake one's from Cali. She was at the bar next to Copacabana. She was a great time and cost me $30. In the evening I came back to San Nicholas around 10 pm and was shocked to find only a few bars open. Chesterfields, Copacabana, Roxy's, Black and White, and 2 other bars were open. All others were closed and the girls were working out the back doors. I decided to go to Chesterfields and met a very nice girl there from Cali with natural one's. I had a great time with her and paid her $50 and another $17 to the bar for drinks, condom, and room fee. I talked to the owner for a while, and he told me that most of the bars are now only open Friday and Saturday nights. He said things have gotten very bad in San Nich and most of the girls are working out of rooms and the bars are not opening.

Summary-San Nicholas has gotten worse, and the bar scene there has definitely declined in the last 6 months. It was much more active in September when I went then it was in January, and September is the low season. Will be interesting to see what happens down the road to this old refinery town.

I was in Aruba in December from the 16th-20th. I stayed up at the Hilton in Palm Beach. As soon as I landed I rented my car from Tropic which is always a Hyundai Accent. I rent from them because they do not have their company sticker on the vehicle windows. So not to stick out doing the 500. LOL. They are also much less*expensive.

Right after I got the car, I headed straight to San Nicholas. It was around 3 pm and I did the 500 as usual for about 20 minutes. In the alley behind Black and White where Fan is, there were quite a bit of undesirable local guys there that were quite shady looking. I kept driving and as I drove by American Bar I saw a beautiful girl walking back to her room with her lunch. I pulled up and ended up going to her room. She worked at Copacabana. She was awesome, and I was very happy with her. I spent $30 plus a $10 tip. The best GFE I got in Aruba. I did not get her whatsapp number but wished I had. Later that night I messaged girl on Whatsapp that I had met on badoo. She was a VZ an I met her near Gusto's at 11 pm. She came back to hotel with me for 120 and was total wrapper. Beautiful with great body but not much else to talk about.

Tuesday, I drove down to San Nicholas and had lunch at Charlie's. After lunch the pickings were slim around 3 pm, and I ended up settling on a girl with braces at Caracas Bar. She was terrible and her room was pretty bad too. The living conditions in this place were much worse than others I have been too.

Wednesday, I decided to take the night off from Mongering and got drunk instead and partied with some local ladies who I had met on a previous trip. There were about 30 VZ's outside of Gusto's around midnight. Seems like there was lots of them on this trip. They were all trying to get my attention but I was with my local friends.

Thursday night I used Yap Yum and got a VZ girl delivered to my room for $150. Gene was easy to work with through Whatsapp. He sent me pics of 4 women and I picked one. She was very nice and of course spoke no English. It's a good thing I know a small amount of Spanish. She was very hot, and we had a lot of fun. Not a full GFE but decent.

Summary-San Nicholas was still active during the day, and there are plenty of VZ's at night up in Palm Beach. Not the best mongering destination but can still have a good time.

Headed to Aruba for the first time in two weeks. I need the scoop. Who are the girls worth seeing now? Any info will be helpful.

If you do find yourself in San Nicolas, here are some helpful tips:

1) You can change dollars into Aruban currency at the Aruba Bank and there is no commision or sales charge if the amount to be changed doesn't exceed 100 florin. So I changed 55 dollars in the morning, got back 97.35 in local currency, then did the same in the afternoon. Some of the local grocery stores, which all seem to be run by the oriental community will try to short change you, or give you back change in florins, if you use dollars, increasing the item cost.

2) Charlie's Bar. Tourist trap, enough said. Seems like they open when they feel like it.

3) Eating options. Zeerovers in Saventa, the town before San Nicolas, there's also a Wendy's and a Domino's Pizza on Route 1, and a Burger King and a KFC right across from the police station.

4) Fan Restaurant is the only bar alternative to Charlie's in San Nicolas. Joshua's Pool Hall on Bernhardstraat, but that's purely a local place.

5) Macro and Springfield Supermarkets are the two grocery stores within town. Macro has better pricing.

6) Rent the smallest possible car you can, if you plan on cruising the back alleys.

7) There is a restaurant at Baby Beach and bar as well. Any other beach you venture to, Rogers, Grapefield, Bachelors. You have to bring your own provisions.

8) Rental car companies forbid you to take the car off road. Although it might be tempting in this part of the island, don't do it. You can easily get stuck in the sand.

9) Also, I took out the Rental Car Insurance this time, simply because even though I had coverage on my credit card, I didn't want to deal with the hassle of having to report the claim, recoup monies, etc, if a mirror got clipped off. With that being said, any damage you want to have taken care of via insurance requires a police report, so drive defensively and carefully. Also, be vigilant. If you take out the insurance with the car company, and the police suspect that during an accident, you have been driving under the influence, it nullifies the Loss Damage Waiver you bought, and you are stuck out of pocket with the cost of damages. That's why I stay in San Nicolas and don't want to deal with a drive back up north to the hotel district.

And lastly, speaking of staying in San Nicolas, I stay at an AirBnB property across from the Carnival Village. 37 bucks a night. Great wi-fi, flat screen cable TV, kitchenette, comfortable queen size bed, private entrance, and no cleaning fee. Cost me $167 total for 4 nights, with AirBnB's fee. Very nice host. All the toiletries are waiting you in the bathroom, including a new toothbrush! 5 to 10 minute walk into the RLD, which I did 2 or 3 times. PM me if you want more details about the property including the address and the contact information. It's a private apartment behind a house. Not a party pad, but I've brought chicas back and the host knew and there was never a problem.

That's my final wrap-up on San Nicolas. Hope fellow readers find this helpful. Think Mel called the town something less flattering than a hellhole, and I concur, but I'll leave judgement up to each individual. Be safe my friends!

Just returned home from 5 days in Aruba, then 5 in Curacao. Should have made it 10 days in Curacao. But figured I might find a hidden gem stuck in Aruba. Had some decent luck in the past, but nothing to write home about this time. So for the good. Discovered the restaurant Zeerovers in Saventa. On the water, great food, great view. Went there Sunday late afternoon, and some hot tourists as well. San Nicolas now has a new movie theater! Do you believe it? Like they really needed that? Think it's called the Palace or the Place. As you enter San Nicolas, they've deceptively created the illusion you are entering an "artsy", bohemian, shopping colony. For about one block. If the ferry service ever comes to fruition, between Aruba and Curacao, the town may experience some revitalization. And lastly, there are still chicas working in San Nicolas.

Now the bad. Not many chicas and the quality is lacking. Saw not a single stunner. One afternoon first day saw an interestingly tatted up Colombiana that had a pretty hot body. Then never saw her again. Some doable Columbianas on the back street that faces the refinery, hanging out next to The Caracas bar. Same street that the American Bar is on. Across from the entrance to the refinery. Fan restaurant was closed on Sunday when I arrived. The town had absolutely nothing open aside from the KFC and the BK. The two back streets are pure hellholes. Pickings were very slim. Some shady locals wandering around during the day, including the tall dude that insists on wiping your windshield with a dry rag. The Spanish cafe where the chicas normally flock to was dead. Based on what I viewed during the day, I decided head to my apartment in San Nicolas by 8 pm Not sure what the night lineup might have been, but don't think nothing more was being added. I could be wrong. Got up and in my car to turn some laps at 5 am One morning. The doable Colombianas near the Caracas bar were partying on the street with a half dozen local guys. Wasn't about to crash that party. The daytime rate is still 50 florin, which comes out to around $28 bucks. Don't even bother to negotiate, just say (preferably in Spanish) what you want. I sampled two of the goods after quaffing down many Balashis and got DATY, light kissing, and BBBJ for 50 florin a pop. I couldn't bring myself to anyone else because the lineup just isn't there. Although I would have done the tatted girl if she reappeared.

And the Ugly. That house situated in the back still has about 3 to 5 Dominicanas that sit outside 24/7 that are. Well for lack of a better word. Ugly. And I don't mean any disrespect to them, but they'd be better suited to doing something more constructive with their time than, sitting outside nodding at guys driving around all day. Guess someone is patronizing them. Think I figured out the guy that pulled the knife on the poster. Some crack head that I saw every morning when I did a drive thru. Caught him asleep on a trash can and he eyeballed me constantly when I passed him, but think he knew I had his number.

Bottom line. Never was in San Nicolas back in it's hey day. They have plans to build some hotels in the Baby Beach area. Maybe 20 years from now or sooner, San Nicolas will regain some of it's lost lustre as a RLD, or maybe the town fathers will eradicate it entirely if they're trying to turn the town into an art colony. You're wasting your time if you are making Aruba a mongering destination. I learned that after visiting Campo afterwards. If you're staying up north and are with buddies and want to blow off some steam or sneak away from the girls your with, that's the only way I'd ever make it back to San Nicolas. The bar pricing at night basically doubles what you can get during the day. But then again, some of the better chicas (I. E. The freaks!) come out at night! As for me, I've now become a devout follower of Campo Alegre-ism!

I do not have PM capability Jafy Atl, but am open to meeting up at Fan, Charlies, or Zeerovers if you are going to be down that week. Let me know.

I'll let you know. I'm booked for the trip, but may kill it for a number of reasons.

I laughed at that line about tossing lunch; see my post for just about the exact same phrase.

Good to see someone keeping the VZ's happy; my body was always too spent by the time they start coming out.

I might be going back there the same week you are in December; PM me if you want.

Day- 2 Next day I decided to head for San Nic in the afternoon. ... I then went for a drive around and did the 500 a few times. I saw some nice looking Chica's behind Minchies and Java area, but also saw some really bad looking one's there. So much that I almost tossed my lunch. I drove around some more and met a nice chica outside of American Bar who was a 6.....

So I have been to Aruba before but always with family and never for mongering until October. I was down to Aruba on business and decided to try some new things. I arrived on a Monday and stayed till Thursday. I rented an apartment in Palm Beach on my own so I could come and go as I pleased. I always rent a car in Aruba as driving there is very easy. A special thank you to all who have posted as your posts really helped me on my trip.

Day 1-The first night I was there the group of customers and I went to dinner at Gianni's and decided to wander next door to Gusto's. It was about 10 pm and we drank during happy hour till 11 pm. The crowd was 20 year old American girls and guys getting wasted. I had every intention of going to San Nicholas but I had too much to drink to make that long of a drive. Around 12:30 am there were a bunch of VZ's outside of Gusto's looking for some fun. I talked with a few different one's in my broken Spanish. Finally I found one I really liked and decided to take her back to my apartment. She started at 150 and I told her 100. We finally*agreed on 120 US. She said she would be with me for an hour and then I could take her back to Gusto's or get her a cab. She was a really hot spinner with a tight body and a great set of bolt-on's. She was maybe 5" tall with long black hair, and her name was Camilla and she was a 9. She gave me the wrapper treatment, and was mechanical, and not a GFE but I had a good time regardless. We went at it twice in the hour, and then we cleaned up. Both times she started with CBJ. She asked me to drop her at The Mill and not Gusto's. It was now close to 2 am. The Mill was slow that night, and I was ready to go to sleep.

Day- 2 Next day I decided to head for San Nic in the afternoon. I went for a drink at Charlie's when I got down there and talked to Cornelius the bartender who told me all kinds of great stories. I then went for a drive around and did the 500 a few times. I saw some nice looking Chica's behind Minchies and Java area, but also saw some really bad looking one's there. So much that I almost tossed my lunch. I drove around some more and met a nice chica outside of American Bar who was a 6. We agreed on 30 US and went to her room. She started off with a CBJ but this was the best action I had all trip. I spent about an hour with her and she was much more of a GFE and not a wrapper at all. Her name was Andrea.

I went back up to Palm Beach as we had a dinner meeting for work. I watched my alcohol intake as I wanted another trip South that evening. One of the guys from work started talking about San Nic and begged me to take him there seeing he didn't have a car. I really prefer to fly solo but agreed to take him with me. We got down there around 10:30 and went to Chesterfields. There were not any girls there as they were all off with guys. We went down to Copacabana and got pulled in by a bunch of girls. They were pretty wild and each of us took a girl to her room. The girl I had was an 8 and was kissing me and all over me in the bar but back in her room was very mechanical and gave me the wrapper treatment and a CBJ. The drink for me and her, the bar fee, and paying her was 67 US. I was ready to stay down there for another stop and some more drinking but my friend wanted to go back to the hotel. Seeing we had a meeting in the morning we went back to Palm Beach.

Day 3-Meetings all day and didn't get done till 4:30 pm. At that point I didn't want to get to San Nic at 5 pm as from previous posts that does not seem like a good time. So instead I hit happy hour and had many drinks till 8 pm at which point I went to take a nap in my apartment. I woke up at 11 pm and decided I was sober enough for some fun. Went back to Gusto's and met a whole bunch of VZ's. I took one back to my apartment for 100 US for an hour. Her name was Angela and she was tall and medium build with bolt-ONS. She was a 6. She was mechanical as well and gave me the wrapper treatment also as well as CBJ. Still managed to have a good time. Took her back to The Mill as it was close to 1:30 am. Temped to go to San Nic for one more but really needed some sleep before my flight home in the late morning.

In summary, the trip was good and I learned a lot. I prefer to monger in San Nic during the day and definitely by myself. I did not feel unsafe there at all. However, I almost felt safer at night as there were less bums and beggars out. I am planning another trip there in December the week of December 16th and will stay in Palm Beach at one of the hotels on the beach by myself on points. I plan to try and find a nice Chica for TLN on my trip.

Heading down to Aruba in November and then transitioning over to Curacao and then heading back home. But I'm single, so maybe I should stay! Just wanted to vent to the guy that said he got rolled in St. Nick, and then never responded to my queries. Both good news and bad news is appreciated on the forum. Any intlel that can help a fellow traveler out is golden. Even if it's directions to the nearest Pizza Hut. (and I'm not promoting that food chain).

I believe I asked if you could describe the chica, or give a better street description, but no worries, there's only three streets to drive down.

Wheels down at 1:39: p. M on 11/10. I'm kind of like the guy at the end of Black Hawk Down that does his own thing, so not looking to meet anyone up for a drink. But I have been known to close Fan Restaurant and if you know Aruba, you'll know where to find me. 6'2" gringo, answers to my username!

YamYum would not send photos of the girls and wanted to pick me up.

That sounds odd. Were you making an "appointment" or trying to get something on short notice?

I sent a message to the guy saying I was interested within the next few hours and he sent me photos of the 4 girls that were going to be ready the quickest. If I didn't like the choices he was going to send me 4 more, but it would take a little longer for those girls to get ready. I also could have made an "appointment" to have someone that fit my criteria for the next day. I perused the website to get an idea of the girls.

[Jafy Atl]

Nice report man. The place I mentioned Maxim doesn't exist anymore. It was shut down immediately by the police because it is illegal to have prostitution outside San Nicolas.

Adriana sounds real nice. What did she look like?

The place seemed to be open in September 2018; may have closed since. Might not have been called Maxim, but there was loud enough music blaring from inside and I went there on the info I got from essentially a lifelong resident on Aruba. Didn't go in, as I had the cumulative tiredness of too much SN fun at the time and would have been pushing rope.

Adriana is kind of plain looking, nice smile, natural body (no silicon), OK ass. Something about her drew me in, and we just clicked. OK. I know she's a pro, but I can live the dream for a few days. She texted me that she goes home in a couple of days.

Could you elaborate on the other locations. Where? Very interested in your thoughts.

Obviously it depends where you live and how far you are prepared to travel.

If you live in US north-east, the large (er) cities north of the border offer tremendous variety in terms of looks and skills for CDN200-240/ HR, which is approx USD150-180. That's comparable to AUA escorts.

But if you perform some due diligence, like read local review boards and check out personal and agency web sites, and use well-reviewed providers and discuss what you want upfront, chances of being left disappointed are much smaller than in AUA.

The obvious downside is winter. But I can't find any others.

[SxmBound]

FireStick,

Too bad both AUA and SXM are turning into sh*tholes from (relatively) safe mongering destinations. Fortunately, the USD is relatively strong and there are a lot of other locations where much better escort services can be had for about same amount that AUA escorts charge.

Could you elaborate on the other locations. Where? Very interested in your thoughts.
