[QUOTE=Derf1;1207414]There is surf in Boca Grande and also up inside by the Hilton sometimes. This just isn't the time of year for it. The hilton wave is rare. I've had days right in front of Hollywood solid head high.[/QUOTE]I'd appreciate a surf report every 4 hours, Thanks.
I wasnt trying to be a wiseguy, I just in all my times to Cartagena have never seen a wave of any size at all, its always very calm. Well good luck finding a wave and if not a wave good luck finding something else to ride.

[QUOTE=Derf1;1207193]I got there and it was flat as can be. Has been so since I arrived on the 3rd but for a few hours of knee high. Magicseaweed sucks.[/QUOTE]Figures. At least we know who not to rely on. Thanks for reporting back. At least there are other things to do there, which sounds like your doing.
Dear fellow travelers and friends here.
I am not new to this forum but this is my first post here.
I got so many good advices here from you for my travel to Panama, Colombia and Saint Marteen so I decided to add my honest opinion to the group.
Me and my friend have visited Panama city several times before ended up here in Cartagena. We love CTG so much. And of course we saw it all, all the clubs, Hollywood beach, LDV etc etc, and I don't want to write about my performance, the beauty of the girls, prices, etc. We all know that-but if you need more info. Please ask. Happy to help.
But one thing I would like to add when you want to decide where to stay in CTG?
I know we all want to watch our budget but on the other hand we want to have a real good time too with a GFE. And here comes my point.
We never stayed in a hotel. We tried different apartments. Laguito at the first time, than cheaper apartments. Honestly guys. We found that it worth paying a little more because in my opinion the girls appreciate a little luxury, nice apartment, polite behaving, little gifts etc. After renting a few crapy apartment (on the cheaper end) some had no hot water, or smelly rooms, we ended up renting only at one place from a guy from Europe. His name is John but I guess he lives in the States. He rents in the Palmetto building on the beach of Bocagrande. Beautiful 2 BR apartments, with 2 private bathrooms, well furnished, TV, stereo systems etc. The building has the largest pool in CTG.
Anyhow we had girls over in the afternoon, pool party. Than fycky-fucky. Or a drink on the balcony and do the wild thing etc. The girls loved this place. REALLY, ! Afternoon price of a girls? 100-200 K COP. They love the relaxed atmosphere!
You can tell the difference when you show up with them in a place like this. And the treatment we received worth every penny. No issue with security, just need the I'd from the chica (normal) but no fee. Here is his contact info : [url]www.cartagenacasas.com[/url]
And of course it might not for everybody, yep, you can drag a chic into a whole. But you get what you pay. If you want to treat yourself a little bit on the higher end I would hardly recommend to rent here. You will see the difference! It was always easy to book and each time he found us an accommodation, no matter what. OK guys hope you enjoy CTG as much we do. Cheers. And many tx for all of your tips and advices!
[QUOTE=You Can;1201630]GFE's are everywhere as long as you are willing to treat the girls nice. As far as english speaking I don't think thats going to happen. In all the times I have been there I only met one that spoke half decent english and she wasnt that good looking at all. So I passed her selling point was speaking english but I just didn't find her attractive at all. Brush up on your basic spanish and you will have a good time. But your not going to have any real conversations unless you speak fluent spanish. I speak very little spanish and its frustrating but that my problem for not studying more. I still always have a great time.[/QUOTE]Hello. I see that you are looking for a GFE. Some other person here just mentioned to treat the girls nicely. I can not agree more with him! And I can tell that you rented a very nice apartment. This is exactly what we just did with my friend and I posted a note on this. A beautiful 2 BR / 2 bath apartmren with pool on the beach is half of the success already. Girls love the luxury. Just think about it : where are they from? Honestly. That is why I only rent a nice aparment especially from thei guy here in Palmetto : his name is John and his contact info is [email]cartagenacasasinfo@gmail.com[/email] His site I guess is cartagenacasas. Com yep this is it I just looked it up. Enjoy the GFE. Speak a little spanish with the girls is good enogh. They love it, trust me.
Dear fellow travelers and friends,
Wow, I never posted here before, but this is my 3rd post today, hope you don't mind. I just wrote info about a great apartmentrentals and now about something else:
I am going to CTG next week and invited a friend from Bogota and she was telling me this : next week is an election in CTG on Sunday therefore bars, discos, all closed on Saturday too, no alcohol etc. Here is the link. OK was just a heads up. So I guess I need to party more on Thursday and Friday.

[QUOTE=Hedonian; 1198391]Hello, Guys,
I am trying to pick next winter mongering destination. I am down to Sosua, DR and Pattaya, Thai. I was in Sosua last winter but never in Pattaya or Cartagena. I did like Sosua very much.
How does Cartagena compares to Sosua or Pattaya? I am looking for nice beaches with available and reasonably priced GFE pleasures.
What do you think, is Cartagena worth a visit compare to the other two?
Thanks[/QUOTE]Well, it depends. If you like latinas, than CTG the place to go! In my opinion. The best looking girls in the world, and the latim menthality, the spirit of latin girls. No other place I've ever been.
Cartagena is SAFE, stay in Bocagrande, rent a nice apartment (read my earlier post) you don't need to go anywhere. Bocagrande, old city, LDV. Cafe del Mar, maybe a boat ride to nearby beach Playa Blanca, Mr babilla club. Etc etc. And you will be a very-very happy man. As simple as is. And it is a short 2-3 hrs flight from Miami, small airport, easy access etc. In CTG from Airport to Bocagrande 10 min taxi ride. 16, 000 COP ($ 8. 50) I've been to Thai. But it is way too far and the girls are too small, you need 2 or 3 at the same time (which is not bad) or the best looking girls there are always boys.
Cheers
[QUOTE=You Can;1198919]I would definitely try Cartagena. I can't speak for Pattaya and have no interest in going there because I'm not into the way the girls look at all. Also I believe its a very long flight from the NY area. I use to go to the Sosua area 6 or 7 times a year, now I go once a year and go to Cartagena 6 or 7 times per year. Beaches are about the same at both places, nothing to write home about. If you go to Cartagena rent a apartment. The Colombian women blow the DR women away. There gorgeous and friendly. Also there is way less bullshit with the women as long as your not cheap. If you treat them rite, dress nice and be respectfull you will have a great time. The Colombian women want respect regardless of what there doing to make money where as in the DR, the girls will put up with just about anything. Thats the biggest difference I have seen. I have seen on more then one occasion a girl tell a guy she didn't want to go with him in Colombia. You will never see that in the DR. Also I am a night person so I love that I can take a nap from 8 to 12 midnight and get up and go eat dinner and go to the clubs till the sun comes up. I love that. Its not for everyone and if you really don't like throwing on a nice shirt and stylish shorts and loafers or a nice pair of jeans then I would stick with Sosua. But for me I can't get enough of those light skinned big titted no stretch mark Colombianas! Can't wait to get there in first week of November.[/QUOTE]Hello," You Can " You are totally right, every word you said! Respect, clean, good look (a plus) dress well, smell good and treat them nicely. And we get the reward! I go next week again nd just came back two weeks ago. OK have fun! Cheers " Panamacanal "
Thanks my man, I get there Nov 3rd and will be there till the 10th. I am counting down the day!

Anyone senior member with info on a two bedroom apartment from Nov 10-14 in Laguito please PM me. I've rented from Mery and Juan in the past, yes they are both great, but I know there have been brand new constructions since then, looking to rent in a new building with balcony preferably facing the water. Gracias.

Gracias.[/QUOTE]I personally liked a lot Juan' s two bedroom apartment in Playa Mar (no. 801) , in particular the ice machine turned out to be useful. There is direct access to the beach and the balcony is sunny all day, and to the water front. Juan' s service was excellent. However if you like a modern building there is for example Torre del Lago. There are a number of agencies renting apartments, for example "inmobiliariacastellar. Com", agency owner is Luis Castelar Posso. The pool is huge, but in the shadow during the afternoon. I believe that Juan has also apartments in one of Laguito' s recent buildings. Unfortunately I do not remember the name. But I think that two bedroom apartments in the newer buildings are more expensive.
Juan rented me an apartment in Torre de Lago which is a new building. It was on 11th floor I believe and it faced the beach. Very nice building and apartment. Definitely one of the newest buildings. Also he rents apartments in Mirador building which is also pretty new, not as new as torre de lago but really nice. Torre de lago has alot of steps upto the entrance, which sometimes can be a little hairy after a quart of rum. I prefer Mirador! Good luck.

What did you pay per night to stay at the Torre de Lago and the Mirador?
Thanks,
Helpmann :)
I don't remember the exact price. But you can always email Juan. Probably 100. To 125. Per night, maybe 130. But I don't remember and I don't keep records. The apartments were 2 bedroom but the price I quoted you is for 1 person, if there is 2 people you pay more. I have never seen a 1 bedroom apt in all the apartments that I have rented.

Thanks[/QUOTE]I have been to Thailand and Cartagena and I have to say that there in volume and price Thailand is WAY better, you can find all types of beautiful women in Thailand, prices are WAY lower than Cartagena, it is a Smörgåsbord of women. If I am a good man and god sees fit I want to go to Thailand when I die. All that said. Thailand is very far. The airfare from where I live is a few hundred more dollars, but you save that on volumes of pussy because once you get there hotels are reasonable women are cheap. $30 dollars will easily get you two hours with a gorgeous woman, $60 will get you two woman, . I like Cartagena. I will probably go back to Cartagena and I love Latinas. But if Thailand was any closer I would be there every weekend. Cartagena has gotten too expensive and the pickings are not as good as Thailand, Comparing Cartagena to Thailand is not comparing at all, Cartagena is a row of convenience stores: Thailand is full of Mega Malls of women.
