Santo Domingo

Thank you for the positive feedback on my SDQ trip report, especially from you seasoned vets of the DR. Also, I forgot to mention how helpful the SDQ mongering map was for me. Thanks to Boricuaonline for puttting the map together and for the guys that provided the info to do so. I found the map to be pretty close in almost every venue. Here is a quick link if needed:

Here are some addtional info on getting to the venues that may not be familiar to taxi drivers:

Casa Australia: best thing to do is to have the taxi driver call her (809 815 4174) when you are en route to her place to give the driver directions. The directions I used when I first went was: 125 Calle Ramon Ramirez in the Villa Agricola area; north on Maximo Gomez, right on Codeno, left on Seibo, left on Ramirez.

Casa Teresa: Ave Jose Ortega y Gasset No 71; phone: 809-566-0864

El Penthouse: Go west on Ave 27 de Febrero, pass Avendida Privada, at next light (large intersection), make right on Calle Caonabo #10. It's in "Plaza Irene". You have to go up a few flights of stairs to walk inside to "room" of this place and then take another flight of stairs to get on the roof top. At nigt when I went, there was a girl looking out of a window into the parking lot of the buildign complex and guiding us in.


[QUOTE=Bq Ribs]Only one little thing, LOL, the web link you posted is for Hotel Riazor in Mexico. To the best of my knowledge Hotel Riazor in SD does not have a website.

Oops, sorry about the incorrect link. That may explain why I wasn't gettting any reponses by filling in the online contact form. However, the email is correct.

[QUOTE=BoricuaOnline]Very nice report!

Is Casa Teresa really 2,000 or it was a typo? Everybody has reported this place to be 3,000.

The same question applies to Babydoll. I talked to a friend yesterday that I met at Casa Azul a few months ago and she is now on Babydolls, she told me yesterday the price is 3,500.

Jaragua girls can easily go down to $50-$60.

La Parada quotes 3,000 but they can go down if you ask for a discount.

[/QUOTE]
I could be wrong on the prices in that I was going on what I remembered. I do remember Babydolls being more reasonable than Foxy's (which I had just left), and am 90% sure that I was quoted 2500. It could also be that because of the heavy rain, "specials" were being offered. Also I do remember Casa Teresa being 3500 for 2 hour take out, but I may be wrong on the in house of 2000.

The two spanish speaking taxis drivers I used and would recommend:
Virgilio: 809 457 4556 (took me to GBP, Australias the first day, and Bar 360)
Rafael: 809 838 3677 (took me to Casa Teresa, El Penthouse, Australia the second time, Dollhouse; also took me to Boca Chica and back for a total of 4 hours for $50)

[QUOTE=Niceb]Where did you meet them?[/QUOTE]

They were both near the hotel where I stayed. Vigillo was at the corner of Independecia and Pasteur. Rafael was on Malecon and Pasteur. Both are older men and was just waiting around for a fare.

I added Barra Payan to map, a 24 hour place serving sandwiches, juices etc. Also an approximate location of A1 Divas new place, please let me know if they just moved or opened a new location. They offer an express service of 1000 pesos full and 1500 one hour with on site rooms.

See also a few pics of GBP published on Mundo Anuncio and Stephanie, aka sensual pollita, an almost impossible to get girl. She offer her services 2 hours 1500.

She is not that impossible to get. LOL

Stephanie is hot but you got to go through a lot of BS to make an appointment with her. She does not make appointments after 9pm and TLN is out of the question.

You can get the same or better a lot easier by going to Australia's. I only went to Australia's once my last trip but I did not have to ask that chica nothing. Seems like she had radar and could read my mind. I got just what I enjoyed!

[QUOTE=BoricuaOnline]I added Barra Payan to map, a 24 hour place serving sandwiches, juices etc.......[/QUOTE]
110 pesos will get you a "completo" sandwich and a frosty fresh squeezed juice. This is a 100% Dominicano Restaurante complete with pretty chicas. If your Spanish is up to par you can't go wrong.

Hey dude, did you look for her up on the roof at my favorite hotel?

Oh my, I like her, so she ate ham and cheese at 201?

This is just a sample of what is available at Australia's. It was nothing but pleasure the time I spent with her. She was so sweet I thought I might change into a Captain Save a Ho.............LOL

On a serious note Australia's is worth a try. I know YMMV but I don't think you will have a bad ride.

So she also received a balloon, good! How much time is from Gazcue to Australia?

Depending on traffic 10-15 minutes, or more and it is real easy to find. If driving go down Bolivar to Maximo Gomez and make a right. Go past 27, go past kennedy and make a right on Cedeno. Cedeno is the second large street past Kennedy. You can't miss it because there is a large cemetary on the corner.

Once on Cedeno make a left at the second block. The first block after making the left is Ramon Ramirez. Just look for house #125 which should be easy to find. The number is on the house and it has a fresh coat of paint. If you drive slow enough don't be surprised if Australia comes out to greet you. She knows why strangers come on her block.

In the past I have spoken highly of GBP and Jaguar Hotel. Australia's is my new addition to the Best of SD. Another one I will add to my Best of SD will be the $RD1000 chicas by Jaragua Hotel/Casino provided you screen the chica first.

There are a few gems hidden in that little bunch.

Looking good Mister Perdue!

She got the red heart with a flower and teddy bear attached. If you look hard you can see the container of mustard for the ham and cheese sandwiches.

Yes, I once had a blonde from behind Jaragua, she was nice. Taxi drivers are going to tell you not to risk with street girls and maybe it is truth in certain areas like for example behind Parque Independencia but you can find nice girls on Independencia and malecon between Hilton and Dollhouse. I believe most taxi drivers say that because they want to take you to casas where they receive a pay .

Once you make a left on Cedeno you enter to Maria montez st. and then you make a right, correct?
