[QUOTE=Manizales911;1114238]I'm sorry but I'm calling "you don't know what you're talking about". I saw the cops, they are giving out tickets to people breaking the fucking law, tourists and locals alike. Illegal parking and not wearing a helmet on a moto or scooter, that's what I saw. They have no reason to run the tourists out of town for christsakes see'mon now, WTF. Think before you write.[/QUOTE]Well, you seem to completely missed the post and did not read the quote I included. I was just commenting on what Oakie wrote. I was NEVER there!

So cops ripping off tourists who are passengers on the back of motos is OK with you! Since when you saw motos offer helmet to their passengers, and when was the last time you saw a moto passenger wearing a helmet.
I guess from now on you don't get on the back of a moto without a helmet in Sosua! What a model citizen / tourist you are! Not sure if I want to visit a town full of such law-abiding guys like you.
And what's this about you banging the advertising drums for Sosua, if you have any financial interest there, I've got a piece of advice for you,"Get out now", before shit hit the fan.

Just got back from Sosua. 12-18 Jan 2011. Had a great time, as always, but I have to admit the scene is much quieter and less choices available than before. This is about my 7th or 8th trip there, so no newbie.
I stay at the Sosua Bay Beach Club (mongering section of Sosua Bay Hotel) and it was perfect, as always. $50 bucks a night, great facilities, free wifi in the lounge, free breakfast included, great security and very quiet and chica friendly. Perfect hotel.
Diving everyday with Superior Dive Shop located right in the hotel. GREAT dive shop, super staff, dive guides etc. I dive twice every morning on the wreck and the reefs. Great visibility on this trip. Nearly 100 ft every day. Get to shoot lionfish every day, too, which is a great sport! I highly recommend this place, especially if you want to just try it out or even get certified while you are in town. Great prices for diving and instruction.
Certainly less chicas in the various bars and the streets; evening spots don't fill up till after 10 pm; I tend to collect phone numbers and / or make play dates for the next day, since I'm not much of a late night mongering guy. Works better for me altho the girls are often late or occasionally no shows. Comes with the territory. Got a couple regulars I like to see and that helps with reliability.
I think the overall service from most of the chicas is average to poor. Lots of no kissing rules. I'm relatively good looking and am in great physical shape from working out so that isn't the problem; think that's just the way it is. Best service from me came from a slightly less attractive and hefty chica I met at Calypso hotel who really put her heart iinto the effort. One of the best BBBJs I've had in a long time. A diamond in the rough.
As depressed as things are, the chicas still start off asking 2000 RD which is a joke, but I usually get them down to 1500 RD, and insist on "dos veces" (two times) per hour, usually not a problem.
I tried La Passions one day just for fun, and it is a nice place, RD2500 for full service, but the service is as uninspired as any new chica on the street, so no bargain there.
Overall, a good trip, nice weather, great to be out of the freeezing snow packed midwest. Still the closest mongering spot for me, but Sosua doesn't hold a candle to Thailand (been there three times) or Rio (just from what I've read).
I'll be back!

I hope you have a great trip like you did the last time.[/QUOTE]Yeah I know but I promise my trip report is going to be detail and fun to read like last time. This time I'm going to Haiti first and chill with Badbear and then make my way to DR. I'm going to hit the barrios and find me two sisters and a mother and daughter tag team. So until then I'm just stacking my chips and being cool.
Priceless! Don't be one of those guys that has to argue you point or have to win all the time. Who needs the stress! Of course its not right to get fuck; but what are we do'and to the chicas? HMMMMMM?
[QUOTE=Sidney;1114561]Thank you![/QUOTE][QUOTE=Oakie; 1114458]Hey guys, chill. Remember, this is not the PR Dept. Of the Chamber of Commerce for Sosua.
There's room here for ALL opinions, both positive AND negative.
For me personally, I love Sosua. I feel absolutely safe, comfortable and at home there. Never been ripped off by a hustler, chica or the cops, but I have met a couple of guys who have.
But if it happens on my 10th trip, esta la vida. I'll accept it as part of the tarrif, pay a few mil pesos and move on.
Basically if you follow the rules of the game, which have been posted here ad infinitum, you'll be OK.
Lock your shit in the room safe.
Obey the law.
Drink, but never get drunk with strangers.
Carry copy of your I'd. And if you're paranoid. 2 mil peso in your shoe.
If you get ripped off by a cop, a chica, or a bar tab, state your case quietly, make a deal and get outa there! You're not Mr Deeds who's going to right all the wrongs in a third world town in one week. Move on!
And NEVER try the rip off yourself, they do it better!
There's all kinds of mongers and all kinds of ways that they behave. I see some who are asking for trouble and before the week's out they usually get it.
The warnings are for these folks. Useful info for newbies.

Got this from another board's Sosua forum (thanks to wolf67 on that site) :
If there had still been needed a proof that the new mayor of Sosua has completely gone nuts, here it is:
The municipal administration is seriously discussing a plan to create a red light district ("Zona de Tolerancia") for Sosua. [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fy6z8i095Nw[/url]
Wolf67 says: "As you can see in the video, the plan is completely out of touch with reality. The new red light district is planned at some remote land, away from the Pedro Clisante street, which the ADSS and the mayor want to reserve for their different clientèle together with the beach.
May be the whole project is just some kind of distraction in order to silence the business owners who don't like the new changes in town and is not to be meant to become a reality at all. However the whole idea is the most stupid thing I have heard for a long time.
Sosua already had a red light district, which was from Classico to the Bar of Fat Hermann. What good is such an idiotic new project? This mayor really knows how to ruin the economy of a town."

[QUOTE=Panman; 1106288]The lifestyle rate is true, but that price probably gets you the basic hotel accommodation, nothing fancy or close to VIP service. Meals cost $10 each they're not included. Their cheapest timeshare is somewhere around $18k, which they wrongly advertise that anyone you know can use it and receive the same services as the owner. The whole place is built around a caste system in which you are worth the color bracelet you wear. Some of the negative reviews in this link tell the real story:

This tells me that production was probaly made by an American developer for American clientele. Maybe people realize that the free spending mongerers monies shouldn't be discarded.

I am on my iPhone so it would take me forever to find the link to my posting (if anyone wants to find it for me there are photos attached of chicas to that post. I posted it in December) but I suggested that if there was anyone with money or access to someone with money that they should set up a "Merengue / Classicos" on the outskirts of Sosua (between Sosua and Playa Dorada). In the beginning everyone speculated that the crackdown was due in part to developers wanting to turn Sosua into a family friendly beach town. I suggested that if someone was to take up my plan then it should be set up somewhere that would not even in the slightest lend itself to tourism (like having a beach). We could still use Sosua as home base as long as the hotels remained chica friendly. Plus, upon exiting the airport the "family friendly" crowd would be going one way (towards Sosua) and we would be going in the opposite direction towards out new hideout.
Incidentally, FOD folded before the crackdown, but I bet the place would be teaming with all sorts of business post-crackdown (but Manizales said the place is now closed to the public. Seems like some high rollers are occupying the place now) because I am positive that there are chicas who would rather make their money during the day rather than having to wait until after 10pm. And there are some that want to work from sun up to sun down, but the current climate in Sosua doesn't allow for that.
I have never been to Thailand, but if the Redlight district has worked there for so long (Soi Cowboy?) then she (the Mayor) may be on to something.
Okay, I guess I'll watch the video from your posting now, LOL.

I will still look for girls where ever I like, on the beach, in discos, bars etc.
In DR prostitution (the exchange of sex for money) is legal, but brothels are illegal; prostitution is not regulated.
Prostitution is legal, although there are some prohibitions against sex with minors, and it is illegal for a third party to derive financial gain from prostitution. However, the government usually did not enforce prostitution laws. Sex tourism existed throughout the country, particularly in Las Terrenas, Cabarete, Sosua, and Boca Chica. Human rights groups reported continuing prostitution in sugarcane work camps and areas outside the capital. NGOs conducted programs about prostitution and child sexual exploitation for hotel and industrial zone workers, male and female prostitutes, and other high-risk groups.

Okay, I guess I'll watch the video from your posting now, LOL.[/QUOTE]I hear ya. Its alot of open land near the airport. A compound with a couple hotels (a la NewGarden style) with a couple nightclubs in the compound and outdoor bars for daytime. And girls roaming freely.
This concept is in effect in Caracuo its called campos. The girls live there and its away from the tourist areas. Most latin countries like their sex hidden. Casas, massage parlors, strip clubs and campos. They say they like the trash out back. The old Sosua bucked this trend. But one thing that the old Sosua had was that it had so many free lance women that they would lock in for a "girl friend expirience" for a few days. In the new type of (fast sex) enviorment, GFE is usually discontinued.
Boca Chica is already set up for this. Close to the airport, secluded, and depressed land values. It also has a beach (if you want to call it that). But a "new sosua" in boca would depress pussy prices in SD and the city boys wouldn't like that.
[QUOTE=MiamiHeatLuver; 1108562]Give the Lapela a once over. Copied and paste from DR1 credit goes to original poster!
"Move over Viagra, and Hello, lapela.
Funy when I used to go to NY the requests were to bring a bottle of rum, dulce de leche con coco or some other dominican product that is not sold in parts of USA. Now that I have given out a few samples of La pela to my friends (on my last trip) , seems like all the requests are for this same product. La pela is the generic version of cialis but more tougher (I think). This pill (20mg) , makes you feel like a 16 yr old boy for up to 5 days. Many women have compared their men to the energizer buddy.
I have gotten so much request to bring this pill that I hope I will not get busted in JFK customs for trafficking drugs without prescription. There is no prescription for these types of pills in Dom rep. I offered my cousin some viagra pill that were given to me by a friend, he turned them down, mind you, he was paying 10 dollars / pill in USA. Everyone wants la pela. I got a call last night from another friend who read my post about my NYC trip, he too wants a bunch of pills. Even my 67 yrs old uncle placed an order from england.
I hope the damn hoomies will pay me or at least take me out for dinner.
On my last trip, I used la pela as currency. Ex: it cost me 2 la pela pills to have me taken to airport (atl) from marrietta (50 mins drive). Then it cost me 4 la pelas for a buddy pass to atl from sti. I guess another few la pelas will be enough to take me to a nice portuguese restaurant to eat a healthy sized steak. I guess I don't even have to change pesos for dollars, I will simply take along a bunch of la pelas and spend a few good days in NYC and atlanta.
