[QUOTE=SubCmdr;2045115]Since traveling to monger has never been my objective and all I'm about is beach, I'm going to strike Colombia off my list. Thank you for your report Mr. Manizales911.[/QUOTE]Like you I need more social interaction than just fucking hoes!
The whole tropical experience has to come together for this Canadian, to make it a vacation away from my city!
But to each his own.
However I have to say I really enjoyed hanging out with fellow mongers, It was like hanging out with my frat brothers. Everybody is in a great mood and the good times roll. I saw.
Many expats chilling with the mongers. The environment for mongers could not be better. The whole town rolls out the welcome mat. On my last trip there were more chicas walking the streets during the day light hours then in the past. Colombian chicas are gorgeous without a doubt. However the effort getting to them can be challenging form what I have gleaned. May be I am a bit lazy but the idea of vacation is to not work. nails that aspect of vacationing to the wall. The whole town is dedicated to making us happy. I am willing to let them.

Round trip flight $380.
5 women 3 TLN $450.
4 nights hotels $165.
Local travel $40.
Food $100.
Gentlemen I had an excellent time, 2 ladies were all day dates one being 2 complete days. I ate at my favorite eating places. Not low rent places. Baileys twice, Bourbon Street and for the first time German Grill for dinners. $1200 pesos a day for food. Average dinner was 600 pesos. I picked up 2 dinners and a breakfast with my sweetie chica that was covered by my food budget. Water and snacks were also covered in the budget.
I went to Caberreti, Caribean Jeffs and the Casino near Dulce Secreto where I won 3 k pesos playing black jack. I was accompanied with my chica which made these activities more enjoyable.
Lastly, My nuts were totally drained, the chicas I wifed up with gave me very strong GFE. Whenever I was ready they satisfied me.[/QUOTE]Thank you for the breakdown. I stay for at least 10 days to make the most of the cost of the flight. If I stayed on 5 days I might spend a little more. $700 round trip flight. $60 a day at New Garden, transport from and to the airport $70. I walk only in Sosua, no motor-coach. $15 a day on food. $30 a day for drinks in clubs an beach. $70 a day for two nuts. Around $10 in tips a various places. Mine is not to far out from Oldkool budget. You only live once!

FYI to all of you mongers, starting tomorrow Sosua, Cabarete, Montellano and Puerto Plata has 911 service along with brand new ambulances. One never knows when you might need it.

[QUOTE=Ghana2017;2045214]transport from and to the airport $70.[/QUOTE]Either this is typo or you are not talking about Puerto Plata airport. Last time I rented a car for 5 days for $54. You would come out better doing that and driving yourself to New Garden even if you didn't use the car the rest of the time.

I paid $30 each way to the airport. New Garden had some pick me up and drop me off. I know I paid a little more than I should. But I made it up the difference draining my nuts for 1000 pesos on the girls hanging out at the bar inside the Hotel. LOL. I did not rent a car because I did not leave Sosua except when I took a girl on a shity tour package to Puerto Plata, the driver was included in the deal which was around $80.
Everything is everything in the Sue. Had Two good days and now I'm working on my third. Classico promotes the casino directly after it's closing. Police on the prowl chicas on the lookout / run and business is still being conducted.
The union is in effect for 3000 pesos an hour. However not all Chica's have joined the union.
Well, Don Julio beach is not far away. 20 minutes depending on traffic There is a non-sexual massage girl on the beach there who is so good. Well worth the 500 P for an hour.
Cheers.

I can only imagine how much they are asking for all night. Don't make no sense that a women in a 3rd world country are getting that much from us!! Time to start looking for new destinations before too many mongers fuck up the game. Venezuela maybe?
[QUOTE=Bravo;2046706]DAMN! They are asking for 3000 for 1 hour now? WTF?

How many years have I been saying y'all are letting this shit get out of control by giving exorbitant money. And all I heard was don't be cheap. I do what I want with my money. I am on vacation to have a good time. Now that shit is coming back to chomp ass. Costa Rica, Rio, Sosua. I am just sitting back to see which spot will be the next to be ruined.

I'm starting the Free Sosua party. I'll go down there and break the union. Membership of my party will be relatively cheap. My first cabinet appointment is Mr Charles Pooter.
[QUOTE=Oakie;2045003]Its a common situation in the tourist business.
The absentee owner is interested in maxing out the bottom line, while the operator needs to personally keep the customers happy and coming back.
You get to to point where operating becomes very frustrating if the owner won't spend any money, while you are trying to grow the business.
But, I can easily see why the owner is not impressed by some 2400 mongers telling him what they would like him to do with his money. After all, it is still one of the highest rated monger hotels in Sosua.
(And we know from recent posts how cheap Sosua mongers are with their own money, and how hard they are to satisfy. If you tell them you had a good cheap time there, they want to see your receipts) :)
The owner can easily find a new operator to put in there, change the name again, Casa Cayenne, Sosua Sunrise, Sea View, whatever.
But Willie is to be commended for doing a great job, apparently under difficult circumstances, and handling his closure in a professional way, so far.
He will carry the good will of his customers to any new venture, me included, so he'll be OK!
It's just another example of the musical chairs that locals take for granted. Over the years they closed my 3 favorite bars, but I still have no problem finding an ice cold Presidente Lite, a little music, and lots of smiling chicas to drink it with. Salud!
Next![/QUOTE]I predict any new owner will fail. Plumbing and electrical aging and jerry-rigged.
Casa Valeria remodeled. Baileys opened their own place (but is doing poorly). Wilfried not getting younger. Mayor is changing things radically. Signing any new 5 year extension at higher prices would present many risks. Too bad. I liked the place only because of Wilfried and his management.
Glad I found some new options in Cabarete. Will back off Sosua, except for maybe 20 pc of my days, and have my chicas come to upscale digs in Cabarete. Like Wilfried, I'm not getting younger either! LOL.
Thanks, Wilfried. And, all the best to you!

Never paid over $2 k, but I also gave the chicas in kind gifts, and either took them to great restaurants or Lifestyle. It's all about managing expectations, making the moola equation fuzzy and avoiding the hard core ones / the transactional pros. In last 4 years, I've only raised the cash portion 500 pesos. I don't distinguish between ST and LT because I leave it up to the chica. If they want to be with me LT, they will.
