Is the Super Pola in Sosua a, "Member Only Club," similar to Sam's Club in the States?

Thanks JJ.

If you mean the Price Smart in Santiago, yes, they need to see a membership card.

No it is just a supermarket. You are thinking of Price Mart in Santiago.

Hi there guys, can you advise me on the following non sex issues? I'll be coming back to Sosua for a few weeks next week. There are a few things which wouldn't bother me if I am there for a few days, but since planning on staying a few weeks this time, they would make a nice difference to my daily routine 1) Where can you buy a sandwich of any kind in Sosua? For lunch I usually go to Baileys, which is fine, but overpriced, and really I would just like a coffee and a baguette or some kind of sandwich for lunch! In general I've noticed they don't really go in for sandwiches in this country, here or in Santo Domingo 2) The Playero supermarket in Sosua is great, but they don't have any freshly baked bread. Can you buy fresh bread anywhere is Sosua? I am surprised if all the Germans who love all their meats from Playero are happy eating all this crappy processed bread! I know there's a Belgian bakery in Cabarete, but is there something nearer than this to buy some decent fresh bread?

Theres a sandwhich shop that is open 24/7 across from the pharmacy at the metro bus stop on the main road. If your standing in front of the pharmacy facing the main road, the sandwhich shop is to your left about 50 feet away. They serve sandwhiches, coup of noodles, etc but are know for their sandwiches. I have never eaten a sandwhich there, I only get the papaya milk shake (to die for) or coffee in the morning.

There's a German bakery you might try. If I remember correctly it's about halfway between Hotel Plaza Europa and Rumbas. You might also try lunch at Hotel El Rancho, just across the street from Casa Cayena. Can't recall if there were any sandwiches on the menu, but the food's good. There's also a little wine and cigar place not far from Playero. They might have some sorts of finger foods. I'm pretty sure Chez Mon Real has sandwiches on the menu.

There is fresh bread from 3 German bakeries in Playero supermarket, so what are you talking about? You can get sandwiches there. There is also fresh bread at LaPola including baguettes. For sandwiches it is best to buy the bread and butter and ingredients yourself, but they have sandwiches also at Fresh Cafe across from LaPola. Wraps at Cafe Tropical also.

Hi fellow mongers,
Sorry if I am asking too much but I have been a Cuban visitor until now except when I visited this forum few weeks ago. I have been reading and getting to know the norms and routines in Sousa but I definitely need some help
- If you would suggest apartments / casas would you please recommend some chica friendly ones with good food and clubs around? (flight only option). Any other tips?!

Don't worry young Anakin skywalker, don't seek anything, the hoes will find you in Sosua. See the video bellow and may the force, I mean the hoes be with you:

I have read the Cuban thread and can say you will enjoy the ease of Sosua. There will not be any issue that require you to sneak around and even better the girls chase you. The biggest issue is deciding which pretty girl to chose. Everything in the town is chica friendly and there is a beach. The night life is centered around to main dance clubs. Rumbas is the hot spot for girls from about 5 to 10 with Classicos for more late night action. This is point and click action. So just relax and prepare to have the time of your life. Read the forum for things to watch out for. There are some girls who will try to get over on you but they are easy to avoid.

One last thing. There are many great places eat. Baileys is a 1st class eating spot for me. The fish and pizza are my favorites.

Unless you stay at one of the resorts in Sosua, almost every hotel is very chica friendly. Casa Cayena is excellent, slightly higher than many other places, but breakfast and dinner are included. Hotel Plaza Europa is also excellent, it's a short walk from the action, but rooms are spacious and clean. Sosua Suites is another option. The rooms are clean, but could use some updates. The good and bad is it's located practically next door to the action. That means you're 3 minutes away from your bed when you pick up a girl, but it means you're going to be hearing a lot of noise for most of the night.

Sosua is a small town, almost anywhere you stay is within a 10 minute walk of anywhere you want to go.

Hi fellow mongers,

Sorry if I am asking too much but I have been a Cuban visitor until now except when I visited this forum few weeks ago. I have been reading and getting to know the norms and routines in Sousa but I definitely need some help on a March trip. Kindly note I do help and I have written my reports on Cuba and will be doing the same.

- It seems hotels are off limits for chicas? Would some hotels allow them? If so which ones?

- If you would suggest apartments / casas would you please recommend some chica friendly ones with good food and clubs around? (flight only option).

- Any other tips?

I don't intend to splash cash and make other juvenile mistakes like paying too much or stirring up the place. I believe knowledge is power and intend to behave. Any tips appreciated. If you know any posts particularly helpful, referral is appreciated!

Helping the lady to like you is huge. I dance and flirt before I pull the trigger for my best results. It is possible to have a repore with the ladies. Patients is a great skill for having a good time. Often we are so anxious we break all the rules. First day I go a little nuts. Now I fly into SD because it is cheaper flight by $200. Then Sosua and more time options. I meet one of my best girls which guarantees a great start to my vacation. Next morning I am on metrobus heading for Sosua.

You should just offer what you want to pay. There are various ways to approach this. You can decide what is the maximum you are willing to pay, then try to strike deals with girls until you find one who will go with you for the price you want. Or you could decide first which is the most attractive girl (to you) on the scene that evening and then find out the least she would be prepared to accept by a process of negotiation. These things will vary according to many factors, some of which you may know about and some of which you will never know about. Anyway, it is a good idea to conduct all negotiations in a friendly spirit and not to try to demean the girl. If you don't succeed in striking a bargain, things might work out differently with the same girl or her friend the next day, so it is best not to burn your bridges.

2500 pesos is the equivalent of less than US $60 so not a huge amount of money for personal services of this kind. You can probably negotiate for less, especially if she likes you, but if it doesn't work, then don't lose any sleep over it. Just move on.

[Oakie]

The 2500 pesos was just the platinum level, the most that gal in her dreams could ever hope to get.

You should simply counter offer with 1000 pesos (bronze level) and settle somewhere in between, maybe just south of the average of the two numbers.

Remember, these chicas aren't so dumb to know, you can go down on price, you can never go up so they start at the very very top.

Remember that the best outcome of a negotiation is a win-win, where both parties are reasonably satisfied.

A "good" negotiation is not necessarily where you have got her down to some lower price than she normally gets. You might pay in hurried service, even a flip, or some other rip off.

It is good business practice (even an art) to strike a deal that is optimal for both.

Sounds like the mongers picking up girls from the street will benefit from this if it is true.

The Haitian asking you for 2,500 pesos must of thought you where a sucker and found out otherwise in a hurry.
