Rio de Janeiro Reports

[Steve 9696]

Had a rippin time at one of the termas yesterday (report coming) but word to the wise. Don't walk late night even with a group of guys. No problem with thugs but we were accosted by several pros on our way down Atlantic Avenue. Sounds like no problem right?

Well Two out of the three of us found our phones missing on arrival at hotel! The hands on had been hands IN pockets. Both of us spent half the night changing passwords etc. Mega buzz killer. Just don't walk at night period IMO.

And back to our feature presentation.

So after my trip to SP I ventured across the land to the land of the cariocas.

Outstanding and insightful trip report, thank you. I'm debating on making a trip to RJ or SJ and this has helped me understand where the best spots are.

SOLARIUM:

Unlike Whiskeria Cuatro por Cuatro (4 x 4) Solarium would not let me take a photo of the price card. I asked, "What if I want to tell my friends. Do you want me to rely on memory?" to which the guy, there were two women also, somewhat cheekily replied that they could come here and the staff would be happy to tell them all about it. Sigh. So I memorized the one hour pricing and headed out the door to put the details in a note:

Prices in Reales.

(At posting time 100 equals about $27 CAD, $19 USD, 16 Pounds, 18 Euros.).

150 entrada, 180 cabina, 470 the girl = 800.

If you pay everything in cash its 730.

If you pay the entrance in cash when entering you "win," a free drink.

If you pay for the girl with a card it's, I think, 50 more? Sorry. Some info leaked out of my brain as I exited. It's definitely more though.

WHISKERIA cuatro por cuatro (4 x 4):

60 entrance, 310 30 minutes, 430 60 minutes.

As you reported the entrance is waived if you take a girl before 6.

No extra charge for using a card; No discount for using cash.

It's worth noting that 4 x4 (smartly) uses two card processing networks. So if one doesn't work, as was the case with me, the other likely will.

PEROLA NEGRA:

I'd not heard of this place but might check it out. So thanks for mentioning it.

I will be visiting Rio in a couple of weeks, and I have read posts from the past year to update my info. I am planning to visit Solarium, 4 x 4, and Perola Negra. (And maybe some privees too.).

Here is information I have collected about these places.

Solarium. Entry R120, Girl R490/40 min or R630/60 min.

4 x 4 - Entry 60 (waived if room before 6 pm), Girl R300/30 min or R420/60 min.

Perola Negra. Entry R30, Girl R290/40 min (or R350 with room upgrade).

Does this look like correct current pricing? I have read about super-high takeout fees from 4 x 4, so better to just ask the girl to meet outside. Is it the same at Solarium and Perola Negra?

What are the best times of day to visit these places on weekdays?

[Turgid]

I had a girl come over yesterday for some afternoon delight, I met her in dolce vita one night and she asked me if I've ever been to Kalabria, I said no. She told me two people got shot dead there last night and she showed me the security video. On that night I went to Casablanca for the first time, 3 doormen in front tell me 100 reais to enter which includes 2 drinks of local national drinks nothing imported, I pay and go in. I ordered a beer and I sit on the stage, no dancers yet. The place had a good amount of girls at midnight. I look around and there are some very nice ones. A very beautiful girl comes and sits next to me and we talk, I said I was going to get a drink do you want one? She said get me a medium bottle of champagne LOL. I go to the bar and ask how much is a medium bottle of champagne? Almost 300 reais LOL, I said give me a beer and I never return to this beauty. I go over and talk to this beautiful MILF type, I asked her how much for you to go with me, she said you pay the house 1,000 reais, I said you're kidding, I finished my beer and left.

That's what you get for entering the place wearing a Louis Vuitton shirt.

She told me two people got shot dead there last night and she showed me the security video.

They survived.

Is Kalabria and Casablanca like a smaller Help or is like Barbarelles which I hated.

If you don't give a damn what others think, then why does her attire, age and behavior matter?..

It doesn't matter to me. I think it matters to you. I was merely extrapolating on the idea that you brought up in your OP. "I would strongly advice against taking a GDP to the Hyatt because you would stand out and look like an idiot. " I completely disagree with your sentiment, but then I thought about what possible reasons someone might "stand out," in your words, merely by being with a sexy, young, pro at a 5-star resort like the Hyatt Barra and I came up with 3 possible: 1. The age difference, 2. The girl's appearance or dress, and 3. Bad behavior in public. Probably #3 is the one we all might want to avoid. KKK.

But then you say that you "tend to be more discreet." I don't know what that means. In a hotel or restaurant environment I am probably as polite, well behaved, and civil as you if not more. The definition of discreet is: "careful and circumspect in one's speech or actions, especially in order to avoid causing offense or to gain an advantage. " Interesting. So, what offence do you think I and other punters are causing by being with a pretty working girl at a beach resort or fine restaurant? I think most people don't care who punters are with. I think most people don't pay attention to the other people around them unless their actions cause them to look. We are all narrowly focused on ourselves. So, I don't think anything I am doing with young girls out in public is wrong or should cause any attention. Thus, I am not embarrassed when I am away from the bordello having a good time with a pretty, professional, young girl. It is my business and no one else's. And here is my final point; even if some people are aware of us and one or two is offended by our presence in a restaurant or beach resort; who the fuck cares? KKK.

I have seen plenty of mongers stroll into the Copa Palace with Obvious hookers, they head right up to their room and they didn't care what the hotel staff said behind their backs. I carry myself differently and I tend to be more discreet.

To be clear, based on your discreet tolerance level, you are not comfortable taking girls back to the Hyatt with you. That's OK with me. I don't care what you do. There are many, many different ways to play the game. Rock on!

Valerie is a real nice looking, tier 2 Scandallo girl. She does not look like a pro. I can take her anywhere although there is a significant age difference. I am sure we will have a great time at the Hyatt and nobody will give us as much as 2nd glance, not that I give a damn.

If you don't give a damn what others think, then why does her attire, age and behavior matter? If your "not giving a damn attitude" works for you, then more power to you! Live Life!! I have seen plenty of mongers stroll into the Copa Palace with Obvious hookers, they head right up to their room and they didn't care what the hotel staff said behind their backs. I carry myself differently and I tend to be more discreet. But to each their own, March to the beat of your drum!!

What are the best options for Saturdays? I know 4 x 4 is closed, but I couldn't figure out if dark room is open on Saturdays.

Try Termas Solarium Saturdays. It on the north side of the lagoon. Ipanema is on the south side.

[Axel Heyst]

The HYATT is my go-to spot when I take a civilian on a date, women love the place!! (I would strongly advice against taking a GDP to the Hyatt because you would stand out and look like an idiot).

Don't know about that. I've brought terma girls there, just telling them to wear civilian clothes was enough. Didn't take them to a pool though.

A couple of thoughts come to mind after reading your latest posts. 1. Concerning "look (ing) like an idiot:" there are 3 main reasons why one might stand out with a girl at a 5 star resort like the Hyatt Barra; the age difference, the girl's appearance or dress, and her behavior in public. As far as these issues are concerned, I mostly don't give a fuck what others think plus I am pretty sure nobody really cares anyway as long as the girl's appearance and behavior is fairly reasonable and not too slutty. The bottom line is I think it depends on the quality of your GDP. For example, I have invited over some very attractive Barra Vip girls & Terma girls and nobody at the Hyatt, staff or guests batted an eye.

My 2nd thought is this: the Hyatt Barra is a great hotel on the nicest, most natural section of Praia Barra. Considering how 1st class this hotel is, the price is very reasonable. All rooms have balconies. The rooms facing the ocean are the most expensive while the rooms facing the lagoon are the least expensive, but both types of rooms have great views so unless the hoel wants to upgrade my room for free which they have done for me a few times, I don't care.

This is going to be brief. Came to Rio for 2 weeks of fun and debauchery, but had to rush back home due to a family emergency. [

The only con I have concerning a stay at the Hyatt Barra is it's location in respect to mongering. It is roughly 40 minutes by Uber to 4 x4 which is not as bad as it sounds since an Uber from Ipanema to 4 x 4 is around 30 minutes, but if one is planning to fool around in Copa late at night at places like Casablanca, Kalabria, MAB's, or Dolce Vita it would be better to stay at a nearby hotel like the Marriott, the Hilton, or Windsor California. Xpartan had a good plan; stay in both areas. It is too bad he had to shorten his trip. But you are a standup guy, Xpartan, to cut your trip short on account of a "family emergency". A lot of jagoffs wouldn't.

Lastly, I am planning a little road trip with my favorite Scandallo girl whom I have known for over a year and a half. First, we are going to drive to Ilhabela and stay there for a few nights, and then we will continue up the coast to RJ where we will stay at the Hyatt. Valerie is a real nice looking, tier 2 Scandallo girl. She does not look like a pro. I can take her anywhere although there is a significant age difference. I am sure we will have a great time at the Hyatt and nobody will give us as much as 2nd glance, not that I give a damn.

Anyway, here goes.

1. Hotels: Hyatt in Barra and Hilton in Leme. Both are GF, but Hilton has a long registration form. Hyatt is more relaxed, but guests are not allowed in common areas.

Hyatt is in the middle of nowhere even for Barra, but it's a beautiful beachfront resort with nice, extensive pools and laidback feel. You won't find that feel in Copa, so 3 days at Hyatt might be a good place to decompress.

Get an ocean- or lagoon-front room at Hyatt if you can swing it.

At Hilton all rooms are ocean-view, even though they show their age a little.

2. Money: got a withdrawal with a Schwab card at a Bradesco ATM in Barra Shopping at the 5. 17 and no commissions (which would be covered by Schwab anyway). Merits of Schwab debit card have been covered here on more than one occasion, but it's worth reminding, I guess.

3. SIM card: You can buy it and have it set up at the market in Centro as been reported here. You can also buy it at Lojas Americanas and set it up on the phone. However, if you're based far from Centro or your Portuguese is a little rusty, TIM store is the place to go. I stayed 10 minutes away from Barra Shopping, so it was a no brainer. You buy the card first then set it up at the store. Unlike my previous trips, this time around it was painless.

4. If you need a separate Zap account with a local number, open up WA for business (HT: Vagabundo).

5. Took a ride to the Classico beach bar with Vagabundo. Nice spot.

6. Girls: I started by hooking up with a girl from my last trip, but wasn't especially happy, so never repeated. Aside from her, I only had 2 encounters with new girls.

6 A. Perola Negra Came over after midnight on Wednesday, lots of girls, but it was a sausage feast. Most girls were hanging out with Brazilian dudes who never took anyone for a programma far as I could see. I walk around the room a couple of times, not drawing any enthusiasm from nicer-looking girls, then grabbed a beer and landed on the couch at the entrance. Then a cute slim 7 positioned herself in front of me with a wide smile. What are you going to do for me, I asked. I don't do anal, she goes right off the bat. How about CIM? Oh, you safado, she goes. Is that a yes? Yes. I was sold.

In the room, she's sweet and giggly, very compliant with my wishes, but not big on independent thinking. Still, I would repeat because I'm a sucker for sweet.

Now, I don't know whether they scammed me or there are new prices, but the joint charged me 350 for 40 minutes instead of 290. Soroya (sp?) was fine and accommodating in the room, but this place ain't no 4 x4 for the price. And way too smoky. If you're in Barra, it's worth visiting, otherwise, I wouldn't bother.

6 B. Alice, terapeuta from Tijuca.

Got her info from reading Gparena. Alice is legendary there with dozens of raving reviews. She's 40-something and you won't confuse her face for a face of a 20-year old, but I can guarantee you won't find a perfectly sculpted body like hers on many 20-year olds. Just heed the word "sculpted". Those of you, silicon haters, needn't worry, LOL. No bed, just a huge chair and a stretcher.

What else? Doesn't offer anal, but great service otherwise, including the massage. Did 2 hours with her for 340, and it was money well spent. If you only have one spot for a mature woman on your busy schedule, make it count, kkkk.

The reviews are here. And the latest report from Dante is a great read.

That's about it. Soon I moved to Hilton, a family member got sick, so I flew back the next day. This was my shortest long-haul ever.

Till next time.
