Posts: 379Have you ever been to SDQ? 1st time over there it took me at least 3 days to get the hang of things. SXM is easier to navigate. Most of the time SXM talent is above CUR, but it's hit-or-miss, and quite possibly you won't rate any of the SXM chicas as 9 or even 8.
SDQ has all levels of talent, from 4's and 5's to 9's and 9. 5's (they will cost you 3-5 X what the bar and street chicas would.).
So I guess it comes down to: 1. Your budget; 2. Whether or not you intend to monger 24/7 or enjoy the caribbean beaches, etc; 3) are you after 9's and 10's, or if both the "chemistry" and the looks are important; 4. If you think you'll be able to hit the ground running in SDQ.

Posts: 273SXM or SDQ?
I am planning a 4-day mongering trip in late Oct. , but not sure if I should visit SXM or Santo Domingo? I have never been to either. I have been to Curacao once 2 years back. Although I had enjoyed myself there, won't repeat the island for lack of quality and selection in Campo. (see report http://www.internationalsexguide.inf...565&viewfull=1#post1489565.
From the info here, looks like SXM has talents spread over a few different clubs and has better selection than Curacao. I know Santo Domingo is a much bigger city and has lots of different mongering venues, but I have never been there even though language is not a problem. SXM on the other hand is smaller and easier to handle, but I don't want to repeat my disappointment in Curacao either. Hope some experience members can shed some light for me.

Posts: 316The multa at Hypnotic is indeed $100 for TLN and has been since March / April. Carolina, I'm not sure I would expect it to be the same. I have mostly done TLN with Hypnotic chicas, only once with a chica from Carolina and at that time it was $70 (over a year ago). Surprised the management at Hypnotic charged you an extra $5 for just 3 minutes, in the past I've stayed an extra 5-10 minutes without an issue. It could also be because the staff know me there now, but who knows you could have come across someone having a bad day. It could also be that business is slow during this time of year and they're trying to be more strict on time and collecting what they feel they should be collecting.
My experience has been the opposite with chicas on their cell phones. Often I find the Carolina chicas on their phones during slow times or if they are out by the bar and all guys that are there are currently talking to another chica. They either converse with each other or browse their cell phones. But really, it hasn't been that bad to the point where it bothered me. And as for the Hypnotic chicas they were probably the ones I found to avoid their cell phone as much as possible, and if I'm not mistaken. Management actually asks chicas to not use their cell phones when at the bar, and they only check them when they go use the restroom, or outside (between the bar and hotel), or in their rooms. One chica I had plenty of sessions with had also mentioned this to me, so I'm surprised to hear that. I was last in SXM a few months ago and didn't see much of this either. Sure you'll see a chica glance at her phone if she is by herself, but not much more than that.
I think the cycle is that a good number of chicas leave in November / December and a new batch comes in. From my experience, the quality at any time of the year has always been good, the quantity is just greater during the high season however that has never resulted in me not being able to find a chica I'm attracted to during the low season. I did notice however that quality in with the batch that comes in December jumps a notch. So where I'd rate the average of chicas at Carolina a 6. 5 during the low season, it jumps to a 7. 5 going into the New Year and high season. The same goes for Hypnotic. El Capitan is a hit or miss for me, they have some beautiful Dominicanas but the Colombianas at Carolina / Hypnotic always do it for me. With that said, El Capitan does always seem to have a couple tall gorgeous Dominicanas.
Maybe I'll need to make it out to SXM soon, it's always great for a Thurs-Sun long weekend type trip.

Posts: 379SXM last weekend
Visited SXM for a few days.
IMHO, Carolina bar has the best line-up I've seen during the "low season. " Around 40 chicas, and I was instantly attracted to at least 25 of them. 10 months ago I could hardly count 5 that I was attracted to.
Hypnotic has around 15 chicas, and I'd "do" all but 2 or 3. Almost everyone has either a pretty face or a "banging" body, or both. Again, much better than last year. Unfortunately the management isn't very customer-friendly: I was charged extra $5 for staying in the room exactly 3 extra minutes ($15 for 63 minutes) and they want $100 multa for daytime and $100 for TLN. I've not done TLNs from Hypnotic since the days when it was called "Seamans", and I believe multa was $70 in those days. Can someone confirm how much multa other clubs charge for TLNs? Also, it seems like other than $2 beers, other drinks cost $1 more in Hypno than in Carolina. Finally, all the chicas in Hypno sit in the bar with their phones all the time, texting and facebooking, and don't pay attention to the customers (unless they know you.) Totally kills the mood. I've not seen a single phone in chicas' hands in Carolina.
I stopped by El Capitan only once, saw a lot of talent as well. I was so occupied in Carolina and Hypnotic that I didn't even make it to Petit or Casa Blanca.
Many chicas say that they'll be leaving in December or January, so I'm planning a much longer visit to SXM later this fall. My faith in SXM has been restored!

To anyone wondering about what ClubTed and other members have said: A Tropical Storm or Hurricane weather could cut short or ruin your vacation on the island. If in storm weather, always be prepared for it. Listen to the radio, read SXM news, or ask a local person. Do not expect Emergency Services like Fire / Police / Ambulance to be available in very bad stormy weather. During the curfew in Nov 2014, I drove around the next morning and it took 45 minutes to travel a mile. We all had navigate the water-flooded roads and I had 2 previous years experience of driving on SXM. This was not easy and perhaps it was stupid to be out after the storm. If I got my car flooded or stuck, there would have been no one to help me. I would have had to waited for a kind person to help or for the Dutch military personnel to help me.
These were the official government notices of Curfew and island shutdown.

Posts: 110SXM vs CUR
I posted this over in the CUR forum, but since I was kind of comparing the two destinations, I'll post it here as well.
I've been going to SXM for years, and recently visited CUR.
For what it's worth, here's my SXM-CUR comparison:
There were about 50 girls at Campo, although if you asked any staff, the number was inflated to about 70. Whatever the number was, there were really only about 10-15 girls that were worth visiting, and only about 5 max that I would describe as exceptionally attractive. If I compare that number to our SXM visits, it falls a little short.
Here are some of our favourites. I only have room numbers for some, as my travel partners didn't always remember room numbers:
Adriana (172) - light-skinned Colombian, very service-oriented. Unfortunately, she's gone back home now.
Tania (13?) - long-haired Colombian, very busy, huge ass and huge bolt-ONS.
Joanna (126) - short dark-skinned Colombian with nice big legs.
Gloria (131) - probably the shortest girl there, light-skinned Colombian; giant bolt-ONS; she was a unicorn because you barely saw her outside of her room; it seemed like guys would wait in the bushes for her to make an appearance and pounce (I know. I was one of them).
Marcela (25?) - light-skinned Colombian, probably the prettiest of the bunch.
Lucy (2?? - next to the castle) - very tall and thin Dominican.
Scarlet (- red-haired Dominican.
Carolina / Karen (238) - very sweet-looking Colombian with braces, almost looks Russian; we called her the starfish, so this is not necessarily a recommendation.
There were 3-4 more, but info gets forgotten.
Anyways, my report was mainly to compare destinations, and not for individual reviews.
I can confirm that while the rooms have signs stating that pricing is 75 NAF, most will accept 50 NAF if there were no extras. At the end of the day, even at 75 NAF, CUR wins the price category.
There have been a lot of questions about take-out, and I promised to find out answers, so here they are:
We were successful on 3 different occasions to take girls out during the day (noon-5:00). In one case, two girls went for $400 USD collectively, but a foursome was negotiated. In the other two cases, there was no exchange of $$.
We also had two cases of 5:00 pm-5:00 pm take-outs. Those cost 750 NAF each (250 for the house and 500 for the chica). This initially seemed like a lot, but if you compare to SXM, you'd be paying the standard rate of $370 USD for the day + $370 USD for the night, or $740 USD. The CUR rate of 750 NAF seems like a steal. The only downside with Campo is that you have to pay the full amount to the house before the take-out, whereas in SXM you only pay the bar fine, and then pay the chica afterwards. CUR wins the price category again.
Overall we found that mongering prices were definitely better in CUR, but the selection was not as good. Also, we generally prefer the ability to go to different clubs in SXM, as opposed to just Campo in CUR, as it becomes easier to avoid chica politics. And wow, were there ever some chica politics at Campo.
Here are some comparisons in other categories:
Food. Definitely better in SXM, and less expensive as well. Freakin' frikandels everywhere.
Nightlife. Better in SXM by far. Other than the odd beach party, CUR goes to bed at 10 pm.
Driving. Better roads in CUR, but a little easier to get lost.
That's it for now. We were there pretty recently, so I'll try to answer questions as best I can.

Posts: 316ClubTed gave some good info. I've been there during heavy rainfall, and when that happens you're not going very far from your hotel room. I haven't been there during a tropical storm or hurricane however, but I've heard from those that have been on the island during that time it can be a pain. Nevertheless, hurricane season this year has been quiet up until very recently. There's a storm that rapidly formed into a TS off the coast of Africa in the last 24 hours, I always look out for those. If there's one that looks like it could get close to the Antilles in a 5 day track, I'll change my trip. If not, I'll go for it. Last year I had a trip planned the week that Hurricane Gonzalo hit, I changed my trip 3 days prior to it hitting once I got a good sense that it was not looking good. The French side of the Island seems to fare a little bit better during the storms, but Orient Beach was hit badly during Gonzalo. The good thing about the quiet season is that it's actually nice on the island when not dealing with terrible traffic to / from the airport and just all around in general. I've nearly missed a flight twice during busy season when leaving from Oyster Pond 2. 5 hours before flight time and getting to the check-in counter less than an hour before and only getting through because I fly the airline frequently.
Take a chance and have a good time.

Posts: 282One more point
Not sure where you're staying, but most of the major hotel properties have generators so they'll have power in the event of a catastrophic storm. But say you're staying in Maho, and power lines are down and roads are closed. You won't be heading over to Carolina's at all. If you were staying in the Philipsburg area, you might be able to walk to the clubs, even if the island took a major hit. As for me, I usually stay in Oyster Pond and if I was stuck in my apartment due to hurricane damage, I'd be camping out at Casa Blanca and Sunset Retreat via walking if the roads were impassable. So keep in the back of your mind where you're staying If you get stuck on the island, you want to at least be able to be stuck with a hot chica! LOL!

Posts: 282Visiting SXM in September
I've done it many times. Actually loved it since the island is quieter, less tourists, less traffic and less cruise ships. Clubs are still in full swing. Some businesses may be seasonally closed and open either October 1st or November 1st. I. e. Captain Oliver's restaurant, some other restaurants and maybe some daytime activities (one day island cruises) may not sail based on limited demand.
Only downside is the roll of the dice if a hurricane hits the island. One of three scenarios will happen. Airport will be closed and you won't be able to get in, airport will be closed and you won't be able to fly out, or lastly infrastructure will be decimated and you won't be able to get out of your room which could be a living hell. What I mean is if the island takes a direct hit, electricity will be out, roads could be closed / flooded / impassable, beaches could be messed up due to wave erosion, churned up seaweed and boats literally tossed on shore.
Go back in the posts and read of a senior member who was on island during one of the most heaviest rainstorms in the past which flooded the roads and shut down the island. The infrastructure of SXM is pretty good, but the island in the path of a hurricane is no match. If you have a flexible travel schedule most airlines allow you to adjust your flight due to the travel advisory, but I flew into SXM once after it got hit by a hurricane and the airport had limited power, roads were a mess, and they literally had to plow the runway to remove fish that had been washed up from the fury of the waves from Maho Beach.
Just be prepared to have to adjust your plans if the worst case scenario arises, but as for me. I'd go for it and not worry about the weather. Usually airfares are a bit lower and with it not being high tourist season, you'll feel at times like you've got the island to yourself!

Posts: 92SXM in September
I've been to SXM 4-5 during winter but never in September. Looking to go with few friends end of September for weekend. Any insight from fellow members on hurricane situation / possibility on island?
Also I would appreciate any tips on things that are different in September vs winter.
Cheers!

My best experiences have taken place during the slow season (Aug / September / October). Not sure why, but during the busy season anyways the clubs get very busy and chicas end up being busier too. During the slow season it's usually a little more attention. As far as quality goes, I don't think there's been much of a difference. It might appear like there are less chicas, but I never have a problem finding an 8 or a 9.
