[QUOTE=ElMechanico;2049666]They have the party on the Sunday before the 4th when the 4th is on a weekday! No mystery there!
Food and drinks (beer & water only, I believe) included. I went last year, very skeptical, but actually had a pretty good time!
The bikini competition was almost worth the price of admission!

[QUOTE=Kozak;2050055]Question being the amature photographer is it ok to take photos during the bikini contest.[/QUOTE]Answer: I doubt it. For a more definitive answer, contact Hotel M and ask.
[QUOTE=UltraHappy;2049879]What is even worse is that they are charging almost the same cover price for their own hotel guests. Yes, I understand that drinks and food are included in the cover price (at least until their supplies supposedly run out), but shit, for someone like me who doesn't really drink, I'd have to eat a shit ton of caviar and truffles to make it worth that cover charge. It just seems really odd to me to charge hotel guests for the privilege of hanging out by the pool, an area that we would normally have free access too. Granted, their photos of last year's July 4th party do show around 20 chicas in attendance in the group photo, so that suggests a good attendance from the chica side (at least those who weren't taken to the room at that time).
The only way I would go to that party is if I hadn't already lined up my chicas from my previous days there and needed a convenient quick line-up so-to-speak for some quick introductions. Otherwise, I would be inclined to boycott. I could understand a more reasonable cover charge, but 170 k for hotel guests sounds quite simply, excessive to me.[/QUOTE]Agreed. 170 k if you're already a guest there is absurd. I would probably just leave the house for the day. Though if it's Sunday, there's not as much going around the city.

Because the hotel doesn't stop you from going to the pool or meeting the women if you don't pay. The only thing you can't do is drink or eat their crappy food.
But if was in Medellin and didn't have a long list of women already lined up. I'd pay the 190 K to go to the party.
For one thing. There isn't going to be anything better to do on a Sunday afternoon than go to this party. I'd be in and out in about an hour. I'd get the contact info of every hot chick in the place and pull the hottest one back to my place to have my own private pool party.
Even if you have half the women at the party on your facebook already. It just saves so much time to be able to see them in person and chat them up a bit. Instead of calling each and everyone over to your place and waiting around for them to show up just to find out they aren't as hot in person or you lack chemistry with them.
The Mansion can be a huge time saver.
[QUOTE=Kozak;2050055]Question being the amature photographer is it ok to take photos during the bikini contest.[/QUOTE]It was not a problem last year. I sat on the right of the 'stage' and had my phone camera and video catching all the hot ones as they danced & exited the 'Stage'! Nobody ever told me a thing!

The drinks are cheap and there's usually a diamond in the deep rough, but gentlemen do not get drunk alone, these girls can be cagey.

[/QUOTE]Really? If that's the case, then I don't understand why a hotel guest would ever pay the $56 cover charge just for some drinks and food. I mean, you can already order in food to-go from a dozen restaurants via taxi right to the hotel. I mean, hell, I'd just order a to-go dinner straight to the hotel instead. That would be way cheaper than paying an insane $56 for their food. I'd rather spend my money on the chicas than waste money on a ridiculous cover charge. Heck, you could even get the taxi driver to stop off somewhere and buy you some cold ones too for way cheaper than this cover price.

And they will gladly pay the 56 bucks just to support the place.

Stay away from the Mansion on July 4th. That way you save a whopping $56. Go somewhere else & pay $4-5 per drink & $15 for food & that way you don't have to suffer thru the cover charge to watch a bunch of hotties try to out-dirty dance the previous hottie. Better yet, just stay home, drink tap water & don't eat, then on Monday morning you can high 5 yourself for not being $56 lighter. That leaves more hotties to the guys that do fork over the 170 k COP.
I guess if some of why'all weren't bitching, you wouldn't be posting!

Guys, I did do my research with various lists, but they don't answer my questions.
I have 4 days and 3 nights in Medellin which I want to use to the maximum, cutting out any annoying time wasters.
I want to be close to strip clubs where the girls are dancing ideally one my bar or table. Luna Lunera sounds like fun. But may be I check out one club every night. Which ones are the best with the best girls and the best, wildest girl performances / shows?
I also think that Centro near the museum should be fun to pick up chicas during the day or early evening. And either picked up or called in, I want to stuff my nightly bed full with girls, at least 2. I don't want to have one hotel to stay and others to play. That's a waste of time. However, I would really like to stay in a love motel the entire time, the way that I am used to from Rio, where you can book them through normal [URL]booking.com[/URL] site. I want some play things, and definitely mirrors around the bed. And I want them with a certain routine regarding chicas, so they can just show up and the front calls you up if you expect, you come down and get her or even better, she comes right up to the room. No hassles.
What is the best hotel for this which I can book and be done with? It should be walking distance from the major action center. Mirror around the bed. Routinely deal with chicas coming in at any time of night or day with or without me.
Finally I notice that I might not even be sure about the area. I thought centro would be good, but I see some prepagos announcing they come to a range of areas in the south not including the centro. May be I should be in a different area? El Poblado perhaps?
[QUOTE=StinkySquid;2050855]However, I would really like to stay in a love motel the entire time, the way that I am used to from Rio[/QUOTE]There's a thread here on this forum for 'The Mansion' or Casa Blanca Medellin. There are actually two hotels. They're in El Poblado.
I don't recommend centro for your first time unless you know your way around.

El Mechanico.[/QUOTE]You clearly misunderstood my post. My post was about those who are already staying at the hotel as guests, that is, those who can already attend the party for no extra fee as pointed out below.
The fee for non-hotel guests is 190 k which is totally fair and reasonable.
My post was merely pointing out the absurdity of why a hotel guest who can already attend the party for free would pay $56 solely for some food and drinks (especially if the hotel guest for example didn't drink) - and especially when such hotel guest can order in food directly to the hotel.
So, relax, calm down, no need to get all bent out of shape. All is right and wonderful in the world.

1. It is impossible to avoid annoying time wasters in Colombia. Wasting time is the Colombian national pastime. Waitresses, cashiers, taxi drivers and anyone else you deal with will waste your time. If you have women come to your hotel, 30 minutes late to you is 2 hours early to them. It's not intentional. Nobody here is in a big hurry.

No recent reports on Luna Lunera indicate it would be fun, unless a few disinterested women sitting around ignoring you is your idea of a good time. The strip clubs with the best, wildest shows aren't in Colombia. Colombian strip clubs are just casas with overpriced drinks and music.

Then the next morning, after you realize how much was stolen, plus how much of a mini-bar bill they ran up, you will realize how dumb that was. This is especially true if you're picking up women in Centro.

If you want what you are used to in Rio, go to Rio. Medellin is not Rio.
You have 3 nights and you're planning 3 weeks worth of activities. Strip clubs, casas, streetwalkers and prepagos. Cut your list in half and maybe you can have a good time. Prepagos, if they do show, they'll be late, and they won't come to Centro. They became prepagos to get out of Centro. Streetwalkers come with their own set of issues, and you're liable to end up with one who has some unexpected equipment. Plus Centro is a really good place to have really bad experiences, if you don't know what you are doing.

[URL]http://sexosentido.co/hotel-3d-suite-medellin/[/URL]
Closest to Centro hot spots is Eros and Hotel Spazios. The neighborhood is kinda scary around Eros late at night. Like Dawn of the Dead scary.
3 D Suites looks like it has nice rooms but haven't been and it's about 20 blocks from the Centro Action.
Hawaii Suite looks nice too and is about 10 blocks to the action.
I stay in Hotel Botero because it is 2 blocks from 3 good strip clubs and 2 redlight blocks, you have to book a room for 2 or 3 if you want overnight guests. If you stay there check out the roof top bar, opens at 11:30 am.
Strip Clubs, I like FaseDos for super hot ones but not very cheap to hang out there, downtown I like Conijitas and Barre Ejectiva for reasonable prices and enough hot girls.
