Hey GauantMan and other local experts. I am thinking of visiting your city in Oct. How is the weather that month? Is it as bad as some travel sites suggest. Will there be street flooding and business closures ? More importantly, will the chicas (Colombianas) take off because of low tourist action?
Thank you

Have the chicas returned to venetto? is it worth a 4 nite stay end of April?

The weather between May and December is essentially identical every day: a good chance for an intense 30-minute to 1-hour thunderstorm at some point. I doubt October weather affects tourism or chica availability in the least.

October is indeed the worst month in our rainy season, but it doesnt stops tourism, NOR THE GIRLS at all.
There will be flooded streets of course, because when it rains, it pours but nothing out of the extraordinary like major floods, flash floods or anything else that might be common in other places

Like it has been said again&again, if you have the money to spare and dont mind, stay at the veneto, otherwise there are much cheaper alternatives that will save you some bucks that you can use for mongering activities.
Chica activity is very random lately, sometimes they are allowed sometimes not.

I am looking for a nice (high end) 3 bedroom apartment in PC, close to all the action. I searched for it in this forum and I could not come up with specific names. Rodeo9112, a well respected senior member posted this in 2009: I found it searching for "apartments". He said, ".......- Apartment/condo: Great spot! Overlooks half of the city, a piece of ocean and a part of the mountains/hills. 3br, 2baths for $130/nt. Better rate than you can get a Veneto or Marriott unless you have reward points...."
The place he described sounds perfect. I PM'd him. He does not know me and I have never communicated with him before. I am not sure if he is still active in PC or remembers the name of the place. SO, I am asking if any of the local members know which one he is describing or any other suggestions for a 3 bedroom apartment or where to look for?
Gracias

Sup fellas,
Me and a friend are going to PC for a week. We plan on renting an apartment for a week.
Anyways we plan to hit up regular clubs most nights and if unlucky we plan on going to a place with semi pros to try and pull for free.
We are both 24 and good looking, we had no problems pulling pro's for free in Rio De Janerio and look to do the same in PC.
So what are the best places to go scope out semi pros in a relaxed chill atmosphere?
And any recommendations on apartment rental agencies or sites would be much appreciated also.

Thank you. I will check that out but I am looking for short term rental...more like 4-5 days.
A friend suggested VRBO. I will try that but if any of you have first hand info, that would be appreciated.
Gracias.

Gracias.[/QUOTE]My friend, may I suggest you CHANGE your approach.
A Panamian owner or agent looking for a renter for a few months IS WILLING to rent it out for a few days ( 4-5 days ) at the price of one month until he finds a more regular renter.
Do NOT discount talking to owners looking for more long term tenants ; Panamanians are PRACTICAL businessmen.
Give them a call :

I tried to send a private message to you guys but the system wouldn't allow me to. I have an upscale 3 bedroom apartment (1400 sq.ft) one block from the Veneto. It is available for short-term rental. The going rate is $175 per night, but I can give a ISG discount and give it you for the price you were previously quoted.

Friend, Send a PM to Black Hawk69. He sent me some fantastic leads (via PM) for rentals in Panama. He spent some time and effort to dig them up for me. I don't want to post them here without his permission.
Guys,
The more I think about it, If two or more of you are traveling, condo is the way to go. Actually the only way to go, if you want to do TLN.
Any info on AMP or same similiar idea would be appreciated. Thx Happy Hunting
