Jaco / Jaco Beach

Mango Mar was $70/ night last time I looked. It's around the corner from Cocal, and a decent little spot to bring chicas.

Not super fancy or anything.

From what I have read is that the best method is to ask before you book the room. I guest that if you book a non girl friendly hotel there will be some other options such as sort time hotels to pick up the girl.

Do you know any girl friendly hotels or apartments that cost less than 60 $?

Two options; both owned by the Hotel Del Rey:

Canciones Del Mar Hotel. Closer to the action but a bit run down; close to the beach, standard rooms, some have kitchenette, pool, no balcony (2 br suite only).

Hotel South Beach. South end of the beach and while a bit removed from the downtown, offers a nicer beach and private balconies / patios. Nice pool bar.

Both can be booked on the major hotel sites.

I like the looks of Hotel South Beach. Thanks a lot for the information!

Going down for a solo trip in July. Now that the Crocs Resort is no longer chica friendly, are there any solid recommendations for hotels?

Cocal is OK, but loud. Vista Mar is nice but expensive for solo trips.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

Hi all,

Stayed at cocal couple of weeks ago. This was my first time in Jaco (been to SJ 3-4 times before) and I can vouch for the fact that the girls at Cocal were definitely a notch higher than those in Del Rey / sportsmens lodge in SJ.

However, I struggled with finding any girls at Cocal before say 6 PM. Where should I go next time in Jaco for day time action? Are there other hotels / escort services / massage parlours / strip clubs etc that I could visit in the morning / afternoon for girls?

Most of the 20/30 / HR massage parlor joints on the main drag are rub and tug joints. If you speak a little Spanish, you can order take out as well. The price, however, has to be negotiated and for the quality, I would just get some numbers from Cocal, man cave, leloft, etc. At night.

Will be traveling to Jaco soon with SO. Looking for suggestions on how to monger in this situation. Any stories on how to pull it off. Considering Cocal is the best option, it seems unlikely to get daytime without at least visiting Cocal up front.

Get a couple of phone number the night before and then call them earlier in the day.

Thanks, and thanks for your trip report. Really informative.

And glad you enjoyed your first trip.

Nice quick guide; Thanks Late After 8.

Planning a fellas trip to Costa Rica in September.

Been to Sosua, DR four years in a row, then Medellin, Colombia last year. Now looking at Jaco, Costa Rica.

Anyone have any tips, suggestions for somewhat upscale Villas or 4-5 bedroom house rentals? Going to be about 5 of us.

Visited Jaco in early December for 5 days and stayed at the vista delmar. It was my first time in CR and this is a long overdue first post. I had a friend with me. All of our time was spent at the Hotel Cocal. The girls were gorgeous and of all kinds, all shapes and sizes and ages. I actually preferred the scene more Monday thru Wednesday. The number of girls and guys is less but the ratio is probably similar. From Thursday thru Saturday it can go a little crazy. The girl to guy ratio is probably from 1:5 - 1-10 at the Cocal. While we were there we had a quite a few Ricas, a couple of Nicas, a Colombian and one girl from panama.

Vista Delmar was a perfect place to stay with a 3 bedroom apartment. If two or 3 people share it's pretty reasonable and right across from the action at Cocal.

Most girls I paid $100-120. They would ask 120-150 but you could talk them down. You could get 80 as well I think for a few. This was for usually 1-2 hrs but some stayed in much longer as they would drink in the apartment with us. One girl stayed for almost the whole day. I speak almost no Spanish, some girls spoke a little English and some more. I did not partake with any who spoke no English. A translator on the phone helps.

After the first time I always specified what my demand were downstairs at the Cocal, and once it was set I had no problems in the bedroom. I think that was very important. Spent some time with them at the bar, bought them a couple of beers and had some fun and then talked a little business.

The sex was good, some better than others. DFK, BBBJ and DATY is what I like and I got that from most girls I was with. Some I did not partake with as they said no. Sex was all covered.

With a couple of the girls that were great, we had them come by next day in the morning and they were happy to do so. We even took a couple sightseeing with us.

A few straglers were seen in the afternoon at Cocal but otherwise slim pickings before 6 pm. We did not go to any of the other bars, but they are a few which the girls go to once Cocal shuts down at 12 . They have been mentioned on this site before or just ask the girls where they are going. You will still find some girls even after 12 pm at Cocal at the casino which stays open.

Some of the girls that I liked and would recommend were Daisy, Uni, Kim, Vivian, Marcilis. The girls will give you their number so if you want someone for the next day take her number at night and then you can WhatsApp her the next day.

I know that my experience is limited but I really liked Jaco and staying at the vista delmar and with so many girls availability right next door at the Cocal. Hope to get back there soon but next I am off to Begota.

Hi all,

Short answer: no

First post, but I've been coming down since the 90's. Here's my take:

Flight.

Flying into San Jose is the easiest and far better option than flying into Liberia. San Jose is a two hour +/- drive, while Liberia is a 4 hour +/- drive.

Getting to Jaco.

Bus: you can take the bus from the coca cola station. This is by far the cheapest option, but it also the most time consuming. Be careful at the bus station with your personal belongings because petty theft is common.

Taxi: There are one million taxi drivers waiting at the airport begging to take your bags from you and whisk you away. Whether you take one of these or prearrange a taxi before your arrival, you shouldn't spend more than $100..

Send me a PM for her contact info. She's still around ans sends me regular updates via Whatsapp.

That sounds fabulous, would that BJ specialist still be available? Would appreciate contact info.
