Manila

[X Man]

How long is the layover and what is the time frame? In the past people have recommended Air Force One. They have a web page.

I will be in Manila next Saturday for a layover. Does anyone know where I can go look (not online) for some company to take to hotel? Not those on the streets.

Yes, I do so do many who regularly post on this thread. I would suggest you RTFF as there is a wealth of information to help with your concerns etc. Also I noticed you have asked similar questions on other threads in the past so generally there is a give and take on the board that I and others have written about and the taking comes from the initial giving.

Hey all. My frst time to Manila and I wanted your expertise on which location to stay at.

Try agoda. Com and then read West Coast's post and the forum to see if you want to stay in Malate or Makati. If you only have one night and not on a budget I'd go with Makati.

Hey all. My frst time to Manila and I wanted your expertise on which location to stay at. I have heard about the traffic the horrible taxi ride and all that. I just want a good hotel. I can not compromise on that but something close to all the action. I know its spread out in manila but can some of you pro's recommend a hotel thats close to the action. I prefer 4 to 5 star. Only there for one night so want to make the most of it instead of riding in an endless taxi ride. Thanks all

Hi HK,

Since you only have 1 night. Your primary focus should be Havana. I would recommend staying at Raffles or New World, Shangri La is nice but a slightly father walk back from Havana. If you want to, go to P. Burgos around 9pm just so you can say you went, see a few clubs have a few expensive drinks and leave before you have to buy too many lady drinks. Get a taxi back to Havana by 1030 at the latest. Go inside to the bar, order a drink, have fun. I prefer to have girls meet me at my hotel room in 10 minutes (front desk will call your room) rather than walk them back but that is just my style since I travel with co-workers. ST 1500. 2000 (depending on looks and negotiation). LT no more than 3000.

Which action? Makati (Havana Cafe, P Burgos street) , or Malate (LAC / G-Point / EDSA)? They are not close to each other.

You are asking a lot of hotel questions for a newb on multiple threads. Knock it off, RTTF, and send PM's to the gents you have questions for. Once you spend time there, write us up some detailed Field Reports about your experiences: girls, hotels, restaurants, nightlife, taxis, etc.

Why not RTFF in the Manila Hotel Thread? Well anyways, why don't you stay at the Hyatt Regency? It's a 5 star hotel in a pretty good location. Or what about the Shangri-La? Another 5 star hotel in a good location.

Good luck,

Likemflat, Your info here will help me much when I work the Manila action for the first time come this May. I especially like your info regarding the finer babes in Manila. This is where my game plan always breaks down. I have been to Cebu a few times and there are some real fine ones working the Mango Bars but they just play me for drinks. I have taken one or two back to the hotel and they will just quit on me as soon as we get started. I have brought more than one back to the bar and there is no manager so no refund or credit. It is really fucked.

At the Cebu bars the Ks get the special treatment and all the filipinas trip all over themselves to be picked by the K guys. Here I am, looking good (albeit 61, but still in good shape) sipping my drink and giving them the "come over here look" but am ignored. Then if I do get action I am played for a sucker (which I do very well on occasion) buying drinks and getting led on...

Hey Socker,

So I take it that you didn't have a good time in Cebu? Would you personally recommend it? I've been to Manila, Angeles, Pattaya, Bangkok and many more places several several several times but never Cebu and I was thinking about it. I'm a fairly attractive dude in my early 30's that enjoys GFE. Thanks for your insight and report brother!

Well. It's been awhile since I've been to Manila. Maybe a year? I usually enjoy MBC but it can be rough at times. Although there's about 50-80 girls, I wouldn't touch most of them with a stick LOL. Although I've found my share of diamonds in a pool full of toads, I usually settle for average girls who I think will offer me great service. The last girl I got, was pretty awful LOL. So shoot that theory down the drain. She tried to hide the fact that she was on her period, wanted to leave early because of her husband and I felt the service didn't justify the cost. I think the girls will go from 1500-3500 here. They usually start off at 3500 but they're pretty much expecting you to counter their offer. If you don't, they'll smell a sucker and take advantage of you all night long! Oh and during the day, I've actually found some young ones who are college students looking to make a quick buck without telling noone. #JackPot.

Although Burgos Street is hella expensive, I sometimes don't mind the price tag. I believe every girl I ever took out from this area has been amazing both looks and service wise! My memory is foggy but I think it runs for like 3-5000 pesos? Going to need a cross check from a vet on the prices.

At EDSA, I tried one girl and I didn't really enjoy so I've never gone back. The one girl I took seemed Hard, Cold and Jaded. If anyone can share positive GFExperiences, maybe I'll give this place another shot.

Maybe I should go back to Manila for a bit? Any thoughts fellas? I'm heavily leaning towards going to AC straight but I've done that the last 3 or 4 times LOL.

Good luck man and enjoy,

YG

Love your name mate. You have already struck a chord with CS.

You could head off to Metrowalk situated on Meralco Avenue. It is a good nightspot with live bands, and in the back left-hand corner up the escalator on the 2nd floor is I-SPA, a very well-run massage place (wellness center) LOL. It is not a fishbowl and you take who is next in line and I have never lucked out with a girl. If you request the I-SPA Signature tantric massage it costs 900 php (discount from 1000 php during the evening) and includes a HJ without any questions being asked. The girl will give you a good 45 minute massage on your back and then will flip you over and accommodate you. They will also offer a hot towel and a cup of hot tea or coffee too. They expect a tip but don't let them tell you they need extra for the HJ as it is part of the service but I always tip anyway as I am a repeat customer. No full service allowed on premises but I assume you could get a number for after she finishes if you find a willing one and you keep it VERY DISCREET (not discrete LOL)

I tried the I-SPA massage. It was pretty much as described. The girl I got was called Yesha (not her real name). She was not that attractive. She gave an ok massage, but she pressed for 500 PHP extra for the hand job. She rejected all of my advances and wanted exorbitant sums for minor stuff (1000 for sucking my nipples? Give me a break). She would not meet up after work (neither would I, I was just doing research) , no BJ no matter what, etc etc. I expect I was unlucky with her. I don't know of other options around Ortigas, and it takes ridiculous amounts of time to travel to other places so I may give them another try anyway.

[Hutsori]

Also, the upstairs is charging a 200 peso entry fee, and for the most part it's not worth it unless you want to listen to the band.

Jeez, quite a rip off. Better to grab a girl and take her elsewhere, such as the Grill of Cowboy on Mabini. Last night I saw Aegis, one of the most famous bands here, at the Remedios Cowboy Grill. Excellent show. No cover charge. Booze is cheaper too.

Every Wednesday night in March the Mocha Girls (see youtube for videos) will be appearing at the Mabini Cowboy Grill. You and your girl will have a brilliant time.

Sounds great. My last trip three months ago it took 4+ hours to get to AC. Freaking dreadful. It was so bad I have booked my flight next month into Clark just to by-pass the traffic.

Except, that, caving into pressure from the oligarchs, the position has recently changed again, so the window during which trucks may not operate has been narrowed though not closed. It took my slightly more than 20 minutes this morning to travel the 8 km. Between Makati and Ortigas, which isn't bad, aside from the two narrowly-missed accidents; one with a crazed bus driver and another with a taxi driver who was either high or trying to commit suicide by car.

the mayor's new plan to limit 8 wheeled trucks from the city between 5am to 9pm is working. despite protests from truckers, trucking companies and the port, traffic time has been reduced dramatically. in some areas traffic is moving at the speed limits. if there is such limits. today at 11:00am i went by taxi from makati to angeles and did not encounter one traffic jam. almost like it was unbelievable. trip took less than 90 minutes and he had stopped for gas along the way. traffic on edsa was moving right along. come to think about it, i don't recall any cars honking either.

hope the mayor is strong enough to fight off the trucking interests to keep it on the 6 month trial period. some of the manila traffic nightmares might be gone. as least for a while.

just read in this morning's paper the mayor buckled and modified the truck ban. loaded trucks are exempted from the ban hours but unloaded trucks are not. traffic will be back to a mess. seems self-interest or i mean paid self-interest is still the rule of the land.

You can't really blame the girls, the Korean guys I saw tended to be young, good-looking and they seemed to be fun. The main thing that I learned is that while these are working girls to be sure, they're also human. So they like to have fun. If you approach one or a group, chat them up, and if you're polite and entertaining, you probably won't be rejected. I was never rejected if I approached a girl. But in the beginning I found I could wave, stare or otherwise try to make contact from a distance, and they would just ignore me or smile and move on. But again, they were all really kind and fun once I approached them.

The place is an experience to be sure. I forgot to mention. You might find some good girls during the day and afternoon, but really the scene is better at night. Also, the upstairs is charging a 200 peso entry fee, and for the most part it's not worth it unless you want to listen to the band.

I am not into misleading DIA girls into my bed by deception and I would never reward a good fuck w / a measly 200p, WTF will 200p do for her? I assume that some DIA girls know it's about casual sex so DIA is a good option if no deception required. For me I'll stick w / the clubs and the malls.

I agree. Now there are some girls on DIA and FC who are just looking for fun. But personally I don't want to mislead a girl and lie to her to get her in bed, especially when there are so many other easier options. One girl from DIA did offer me a massage in my hotel room, but our schedules never matched up.

I like your style but wish you had taken a few pics.

Yeah, sorry about that. I'm used to places like the German FKK clubs where cameras are strictly forbidden so I'm just not in the habit. Taking pictures would be fun, so I'll have to bring a camera next time.
