General Information

[QUOTE=Mahku]I use that booth a lot also and it's usually as good a rate as any other.

Each of the malls have exchange places that are pretty good, except I don't like the one inside of SM Department Store. They always make me fill out this tedious form and copy down all the serial numbers of each bill.

I avoid the banks as much as possible. They're just more hassle than exchange booths.

I also use ATM cards a lot. They often have a better rate than exchanging cash.[/QUOTE]

Thanks.

I guess I'll stick with this exchange booth then.

If you are at Fuente Osmena, try the booth you mention, also, the one around the corner across from Robinsons. Also, across the circle there is a money changer who sometimes has good rates. However, my best experience is at the ATM at Equitable across the circle. Going back, try the foot massage down the tunnel from the money changer for 50P, 1/2 hour, best 50P you ever spent. While I am here, the Elegant Circle Inn has treated me well. I will go back.

Enjoy and stay safe,

Thanks snake12 for that info, the Elegant Circle Inn sounds like a central place to stay. Do you have an address or contact info as I plan to leave manila in acouple of days for Cebu. Thanks for the good info guys anyone around lets meet up the first round is on me.

What the fcuk has getting cash out of an ATM got to do with this site. Its like telling someone how to get their luggage off a carosel at the airport. Jeez.

Faulk

Lighten up. This is a P4P site. The first "P" is for "pay". Which usually means cash. Support info on getting by in our location of choice is totally on subject.

PS: Do you still need help with that pesky luggage carousel ?

A. The ATM cards of one of the largest banks in the world are on a network that works at only a small number of machines in the PI;

B. The Angeles City area has only one of these machines that will work with that major bank's ATM card;

C. If your card is from that major western bank you will not find the one and only machine that will take it located anywhere in the entertainment district of Fields;

D. That bank's world ATM finder website (and it's employees) will list many Philippine ATMs all over the place which are supposed to take it, but this is not true, so you will not know that you have a problem 'till you are suddenly stuck in a third world country with no cash and no clue.

At this time it would be nice of me to tell you which bank ATM network that is, and where that sole machine is located, so you will not be stranded begging for Pesos and table scraps with the street urchins. But I have indigestion at the moment, so I don't feel like it, and I won't. Good luck.

Sorry, but l am going to have to agree with Faulk here because l am often left scratching my head at some of the questions l have seen posted here, recently. Theses are things that l often think, one has this person ever travelled before and two have they RTFF? This subject has already been extensively discussed in other areas of the forum.

There are at least seven ways of taking cash around the world, ATMs is only one option, (see below for answers). Anyone planning on going to the Philippines should go into their bank and ask the following: [i]“I am going to the Philippines for a vacation what is the best way of taking my cash with me?”[/i]

On ATMs the local machines that will use western cards are China Bank and Metro Bank.

Anyway here is a Visa ATM locater

No doubt you posted that becuase that's your experience with your particular bank, but one should not generalize from that, as some travellers will be unpleasantly surprised if they count on that with every western bank's network and any any bank's staff. Many of the ATMs listed by the "VISA locator" do NOT work with some common western networks which have a VISA logo, and the bank staff have no idea that this is the case. The two banks you just listed will not dispense money on a Bank of America card, for example, and most of the "VISA locator" sites for the PI won't either. Bank employees frequently have no idea that this is the case, as well as other things pecular to the Philippines that don't always work well, such as selling you their proprietary traveller's checks or dispensing some older creased and worn U.S. currency that PI moneychangers don't want to take.

Every possible subject has been mentioned at some point, but we're not about to freeze the site and pull the plug on posting our individual experiences because of that, and nobody reading this should think they ought to refrain from doing so just becuase someone might not be entertained by it or have a different experience that they imagine must be more true.

Much more annoying to most is the lack of a minimal amount of an adult level of civility on the board, which especially plagues this particular section.

A word of warning about [b]PCI Equitable[/b] be very careful with their ATMs, I personally would not touch them, last September I used one of their machines in Makati only to discover that the ATM was empty but it still managed to debit the money from my account, I have used ATMs all over the world and many have been empty but this was my first experience of the money actually having been debited from my account.

The money was later refunded by my bank, after sending in the receipt.

But Wastrel I still wonder why it is that some people go to the time and effort to post non-sexual questions, where the answer could easily be found in seconds by putting this into a search engine, as well as on the forum - it’s totally bizarre.

Hiya,

I plan on spending a month in Davao and Cebu each. Can anyone recommend a place to say on a monthly basis? Basic and or small is ok. Clean is the biggest factor. I normally stay in Thailand with A/C, hot water, mini - bar and a pool. I have stayed in much more basic places tho. I can give up amenities for an overall good "vibe". Any suggestions welcome.

Thanks and take care,

Pass

I have found a place with rooms as low as 385P per day. That's about $7 / day. That may be as good as it gets.... Send me a message if you want the address, because I have been trying to figure out the same thing and am willing to pass on my experience at no cost.

Apartments are out of the question. It seems like they all want three or four months deposit, and that's just too much. I might add that there are apartments available for as little as 5000P per month-- though they may not have hot water.

I just rented a place and it is about 1/10 the cost of a tier one city apartment of the EXACT same quality . By tier one I mean prices like LA, Chicago, boston, dc,

If Pittsburg or maybe somewhere like Providence RI are Tier 2, then I would still say 1/6.

All the people in the small building are ex-pats. I rented for a full year (share with another ex-pat) Shortest rents are 6 months.

May as well stay in a hotel if you are only there for couple months. Pretty much ALL will give a discount.

Big piece of advice: if you rent, do NOT look to close to the biz park and ayala. If anyone on here decides to take out a six month lease you can get a very attractive modern place with say 750 SQ meters for about $250 per month. BUT just get away from the center, even just 2 miles.

I don't know how many places are so "modern" as mine, but look around.

Hello fellas! This is my first report and probably my only report since my wife won't let me outta her sight when I am there. But here goes.

Jan. 26th 2005

I get off the plane at Cebu International or Mactan, whatever. It's about 3am and I am exhausted from the LONG friggin flight! I was supposed to meet this little 19 yr old at the airport in Manila during my 2 hour layover, but with all the confusion (my first time at an airport outside the U. S.) of transferring to the domestic airport, we missed each other. So I was supposed to meet this other lovely little lady at Cebu airport but, the last conversation we had I got a little upset with her so I had sent her an email saying nevermind, don't meet me at the airport. Well I arrive at the airport in Cebu and I look around a little to see if she actually showed up. I didn't see her anywhere so I got a taxi to head to the hotel. Taxi driver's name was Rudy, helluva nice guy! I ask him if he knows of a place I can find some company for the night, even though it's 3: 15 in the morning. He says sure and he can take me there before I go to hotel or after. I said well I need to change my money first and he says he knows a place. I said ok and we head off into the night. We stop at a little place (looked like a small sari sari store) and he wakes somebody up. After a few minutes a girl opened a small window and we did the exchange. I counted my money, and it looked as if she gave me about 54 pesos on the dollar.

We leave and drive to a Casa. Big Gate, Big guard and a few little buildings. I meet the Papason or whatever (pimp) and a light comes on in a little room. I see 3 girls walk in and stand there. I go in and see this little cutie looking at me with THOSE eyes. So I said I'll take her. 4000php. I know now I paid too much but hey. It was my first time. I say ok and we walk outside while the girl went to get her bag. He says to me, "Good choice, she is new. Only 19 and she only 1 man before 10 days ago! " I say oh really. Didn't know whether to believe him or not but oh well. I pay him and the girl comes out, we get in the taxi and head to the hotel. I thank Rudy for his help and give him 500php for the ride. I stayed at Midtown Hotel in Cebu. We check in and head upstairs to the room. I ask the girl how old she was and she says 19. Her english was very bad but, I did find out she arrived from Province only 2 weeks ago and this was the only way she could help her family and she had her first man 10 days ago. A 46 yr old american. She hadn't had any customers since. I thought ok cool and I asked her to take off her clothes. She was VERY shy! She hid under the covers until I pulled them all away so I could see her nice little body. The only thing I didn't like was her legs had alot of mosquito marks on them which I attribute to the fact she was fresh from the province. I laid next to her and began to kiss her and fondle those nice young breasts. I reach down and holy crap this girl was tight and very wet! She was ready for me to hit it already. I waited a little and decide to taste her. She didn't know what to do. She kept trying to get me to stop but I wouldn't have it. After a few minutes of that I decided to see if she knew how to give head. She didn't! But I give her credit for trying. She wouldn't let me watch her, but I did anyway. I gave up on the BJ and decided to slide it in. She insisted I wear a condom which I would anyway, and proceded to put it in. She was so tight and all she kept saying was "eets so beeg! " ha ha ha. I love hearing that! After about 15 to 20 minutes I busted my nut. I was exhausted! We went to sleep right away at about 4: 30am.

At 5: 30am the phone rings. I thought I was dreaming it, so I didn't answer. At about 5: 40am the phone rings again. I know I am not dreaming now, so I answer it. I said hello and I hear the sweetest little voice say "Hi honey, I wait you all night at airport. " Yeah, it was the girl I was supposed to meet in Cebu. I said "Oh, hi, I didn't see you there so I came to my hotel. " She said, "That's ok honey, you still want to meet me? " I said "sure when? " and she says "Now? ". I said "where are you" and she say she's in the Hotel lobby! Now I've got this little hooker sleeping next to me so I say "Oh no, I am too tired now. Can you call me back at noon? " She says ok I will call you at noon and we hang up. Wow, close call!

So we wake up about 9am and she asks if its ok if she leaves at 10: 30am. I say yeah that's fine and we go at it again. This time my stamina is alot better and I just wrecked it! We get finished and she asks me if she can stay longer now. I asked her why and she says because now she loves me! ha ha ha. I told her that I was not the man for her and I already had a girlfriend. She then says to me "But I love you so much! " and I just said "honey, I am not the kind of guy you want to be with. If you want to find a nice man and marry, you should get on the internet and start meeting people. I practically had to throw her out of the room. But finally she left about 11: 30am and I took a shower and got dressed.

At 12 noon the phone rang and it was the girl I was supposed to meet. She was in the lobby again and she asked me if I wanted her to come up or if I was coming down to the lobby. Since the room wasn't made up yet and I didn't want her to see the bed had obviously been slept in by two people, I said I'd be right down.

I get to the lobby and I see this amazing tiny little woman (4'10" and 77lbs) and after a few days with her, I knew what I had to do. I don't want to be a monger forever and this girl is the best. She smiled really big and gave me a hug. 5 days later, I was married. I know most people think I'm nuts but, I don't care. She's absolutely the sweetest little thing. I went back in Sept. For a whole month and we had a great time. We're just waiting for the papers to get finished so she can be here. If anybody has anything negative to say about my marriage, please just keep it to yourself. I've heard it all. I am happy and so is my wife so that's all that matters.

Well that's my report, sorry if I got off track with any of it but I don't' know how to tell the story without all of it.

Hi all,

Just got to Cebu yesterday afternoon. It's quite a long trip from Dubai so I needed a nap for 3 hours. Good thing my girl from Cagayan sent me a text asking her to pass a cellphone load or I might have slept the whole night away.

I did make it to 2 places last night. Black Hole seems to get worse and worse every time I go there. It was only about 10:30 but they only had tired, bored, used up looking girls. After 1 drink I headed over to Viking. Last July it was the best place in this little square of clubs. This time it was still pretty good, but not as good as before. I was told that a lot of girls are still out of town for the All Saints' Day long weekend. So maybe things will get better in coming days. I eventually went home with Jessica (aka Jamaica) for a barfine of 1700. This should be all inclusive, although extra tips are 'up to you' as they say.

The peso seems to be on a minor upswing right now. I changed for 54.4 yesterday, compared with about 56 most of last summer. So if you're headed this way throw in an extra hundred or two.

Wulfe[/QUOTE]Hey, CONGRATULATIONS ! and the best of luck to both of you.

I'm sure you made a great decision!

D Master

i stayed 1 week in sankciago street around colon in may.

my problem was this; i am a budget traveller, so did not want to pay more than 1000 pisos st and i did not want to feed what i regard as parasites (mamasasans, pimps etc.)

cebu pimps deserve the gold medal of "worse pain inthe ass" in my short but already varied experience.

you can never get read of them , i tried to explain , after i tried to threaten them but it was no use, i even heard it could have been dangerous for me, as some are junkies; for example, i tried to walk to the pick up place near univ san carlos i speak thereafter but there were guys always around.

one time i found a lonely fuckable lady among the wrecks and **** beggers of colon but a pimp ran to me and said "i sell you that lady, very good lady etc...". the lady followed me with some distance. unfortunately another pimp saw her entering my hotel. i asked him what was going to happen, she said she would have to pay not to be beaten.

-> where can i find real freelancers without pimps around in cebu?
i considered going to the hayala center but it was closed early and i am a middle-aged man very abnoxious to ask to a wrong lady

-> is it easy to notice sw in malls? when? how much (i'm not so young). i just went to the big commercial center on colon with escalators and restaurants, no girl tried to attract me, everything sonded normal as in europe :-(

->are there bars for freelancers like the biergarden from bkk to pick them up in cebu? (same question for angeles)

if not, i have to go in bars with barfines; what are the cheapest for st? australian guys proposed me to go to silver$, but said it was around 3000 minimum. no other option? (i walked around osmena circle nights but saw no pattaya-like action, so i wunder where those bars are)

my report to finish :

stayed 6 days at cebu view inn hotel on sanciangko str.near colon st, no view, room basic, ac very loud for about 1000p/day, guestfriendly but ladies at the desk dislike mongers!

only the doorman seems in the deal to provide girls, i never paid him directly, but seems acquainted with some taxi drivers.

as soon you leave hotel, others hustle you to bring you in bars , competition seems fearce!

i said no "i want a cheap girl for 1000p", which seemed too little, but after some discussion another guy stepped inside taxi, 2mn later we entered a dark street near the rosario university. i would have liked to take time and walk as in pattaya, no way, pimps were had given kicks on the car, and now i was looked as a prey by the girls who surrounded the car. small prey, so only some stayed, i think it was the girls belonging to the mamasan in bussiness with the taxi driver.

you have to say yes or no, because everybody is waiting for you.

i never lived that, so i did not dare to ask my usual pattaya check list.

they wanted the 1000p at once , i said no, later to the girl, taxi driver seem afraid and asked his 200p for him at once. i had to pay in advance.

once in room, she refused to undress because of "monthly period", i tried to kiss her, she refused also. so i ordered her to leave and bring a friend. she refused, i called the doorman to expel her, he promised me another girl if i give the 100 p now.
the replacement girl was awfull; she stayed like a statue refusing to touch me, when i tried self hj, she laughed at me, after 5 mn, i gave up.

a freelancer is less likely to behave that way; those girls receive only a small part of the money (taxi driver+another middleman +mamasan for 1 working girl!).
this place is the cheapest i found in cebu , so some after some days of diet, i made another try. this time taxi driver demanded paiement in advance, but i took more time to look, saw a shy 21' with nice smile behind.

she was not skillfull but cute, so i tipped her 500p, and when she told me i had been the first to pick her up in cebu, i advised him to stay like that, without illusion...
after 6 noisy nights of dredfull haunting the street of colon, i spent 2 nights relaxing in moalboal (200km down on cebu west coast opposite negros). it was the best moment of my trip with real nature (not like mactan), rainfalls, relaxed pinays, amazing corals... it's laid back but i'm sure you can have some action at least on the last small bar in the middle because those 4 girls (rank 4-5) wanted to go with me for 1000, but no pics even with tip, so i left. there are others bars with 10 girls who seem more than waitresses, but most were gone when i came back around 11pm to check.

Doesn't sound like you had a very good time. I think one of the problems you are having is that Cebu is relatively large city and your limit of 1000p might be a little low.

Freelancers in the Mall aren't hard to find. Just sit at one of the coffee shops in Ayala or SM Mall and wait for a pretty girl to smile at you. If you talk to her, just let her know you are looking for a "companion".

You could also try to meet a Salesgirl in one of the Department stores. I had a girl in Robinsons try to pick ME up... She worked as a Hotdog vendor! My wife was inside one of the stores, so I had to pass on her. Cute girl, all smiles.

I wouldn't worry about whether a girl is Freelance or not if it's your budget you are worried about. I would just negotiate better with the pimp and then tip the girl if she does a good job.

I only went to a couple of the bars but Thunderdome had some beauties when I was there, but I'm guessing you don't want to pay the barfine...right?

I had 5 days and 4 nights in town a couple of weeks ago. I had a good womanizing time at a measured pace: one girl per night.

In my last message I put in the title 'Always have backups.' This was all too true on this trip. I arrived thinking that I would have one night of mongering in the bars and then 4 days and 3 nights divided between a girl from Cagayan and another from Butuan. The first night in the bars went ok as I reported. But as it turned out neither girl from Mindanao could make it. One of them because of communication problems and the other because of being assigned to student teaching in the wilds of Mindanao.

So I found myself with all these days free and with nobody to meet. Luckily Cebu is a good place to be in such a situation. First of all I was in Cherry Blossoms chat and I picked out a girl from Cebu, Christie. She was willing to meet the next day. In the chat she assured me that she's a virgin and wanted to save it for her husband. Uh huh, whatever. Later in the evening I was getting ready to go out to Sunflower. But Christie kept sending messages, saying she was bored and lonely. So I said I would be glad to help her not be bored. With her 'virgin' talk in mind, I offered to meet outside. But she said she preferred to come to the hotel. Hmmm. When she got there I offered to sit together in the lobby bar, but she said she wanted to go to the room. Hmmm. Then in the room she gets next to me on the bed, starts telling me she dreams about sex all the time. Then this 'virgin' starts taking off MY clothes, and her clothes....and then so much for being a virgin (if she was one to begin with of course). She gave a good BBBJ. If only all 'virgins' were so good. Unfortunately in the remaining days in town she was a bit of a pest, saying that I 'took her virginity' and owed her a relationship. In the end the sex was good but it's a tossup whether it was worth the ensuing hassle.

The next day I got in touch with the Cebu girl that I met in July and August. She was a bit disappointed that I hadn't told her that I was in town. But she got over it and we went to Sunflower together. This girl has been a dancer before so it was nice bumping and grinding on the dance floor together. She's also good at dancing in bed. In my life all the girls that I've had that could dance well were also good in the sack. It's always been a reliable predictor for me about how good of a lay someone will be. Sunflower on this night had several groups of approachable girls. There were also some pairs of unaccompanied Japanese and Korean girls. I would love to have been free to try on one of the J girls. There was also a large group of desperate Korean housewives that surrounded a couple of Filipino guys and had them in a dark corner, doing God knows what.

My last night I decided to head back to the bars. First I had a couple of drinks at the Havana Bar across from Ayala. It was a Saturday night so I hoped to find some freelancers. But things were pretty dead. This would be a great place to hang out with the right company. Also there's a cigar smoking room for those who want to retire with a smoke. Here I had a couple of mojito Cuban cocktails which I would later regret. Then I was off to Silver Dollar bar for a few games of pool with the always fun and playful girls there. Some of the girls here aren't bad but I never seem to get around to barfining anyone. I had some gin and tonics which would increase my regret along with the earlier cocktails. Avoiding Black Hole, I went into Exotica. After a beer here (really mixing drinks now, bad move) I moved over to Dimples. Here there was a sister combination. One of them, Marie, had a face kind of like the girl from Harry Potter, except over 18 fortunately. She was too adorable to pass up. We hit it off so I paid the 2000 barfine. This is good for all night with no tip expected for the girl, unless you want to. Sorry to say the drinks had taken their toll and I fell asleep after just one round. I was really glad for the in room safe. She stayed all night and went home in the morning.

So the moral of the story is make your best plan and then have a plan B and even a backup to the backups. Sad to say this will be the last Philippines trip until next summer. Colombia in January and maybe Africa are next on the agenda. They'll be great but I'm sure I'll be ready to get back to Asia again.

Wulfe,

Wish you the best. Did you meet her on one of the online matchmaking sites?

Best thing you can do now is try to learn as much as you can about her culture. What starts out as exotic can become troublesome. My granmother, an Irish-American who married a French Canadian, warned me about this when I decided to marry an Asian woman.

And she was right...

X Man

Mahku, thanks for a great post. On my last trip I hit MLA, Cebu and Davao and had a few things lined up at each place. As you've suggested, nothing really turns out as expected.

At each location I had a no. 1 girl that I wanted to meet, but never met any of the three.

But the really strange thing is that the no. 1 at cebu just happened to be a CB girl named Kristine. She answered one message I sent from Manila, but no replies after that. Later, she told me she had lost her cell phone.

By any chance does your Christie work at a department store?

I wonder if it's worthwhile to start a matchmaking site thread on this board. I suspect the girls in a particular Internet cafe are sharing notes on the playboys they are chatting with....maybe we should be doing the same. Anyone interested?

X Man[/QUOTE]Yeah, I met her on asianeuro dot com. I actually met several ladies online and then narrowed it down by how well we got along and which ladies were from areas I was planning on going to. I ended up with 4 ladies to meet in person on my 10 day trip. The first one I was supposed to meet was in Manila but, I only had a 2 hour layover and being that it was my first time there, we missed each other amongst all the chaos of going from International Airport to Domestic. Then I met my wife at Mactan Airport. She was actually my LAST choice because of a misunderstanding the last time I had talked to her in Yahoo. Once we met in person, we just clicked! I did meet the other 2 ladies and my wife is now good friends with one of them. They were very nice attractive women but, I just didn't have any chemistry with them.

I'm currently trying to learn Cebuano and I read everything I can on Philippine culture and even current events. I've also read several eBooks about Filipinas and this site has also provided alot of useful information. I realized from the beginning we would have some obstacles to overcome because of the differences in culture. I think one of the things that helps is, I really like the Filipino people and there way of doing things. I find them facinating, and I try to look at everything with a light attitude but, I am also a very cautious person. I do my best to try to understand as much as I can.

Wulfe

I think I should also mention some of the ladies I've met using AsianEuro or Yahoo sounded like alot of fun. I remember one lady telling me that all I had to do was show up and she would do anything I wanted. She wasn't my type at all but she was VERY interested in Anal and she said I could do ANYTHING I wanted to her. I thought about this for a while but, she just didn't look good enough for me. I do recommend lining up a few girls to meet using Yahoo or the like before a FIRST trip there. It would probably make it a little easier to have some fun, although I have a hard time understanding how anyone could have trouble meeting ladies in the Phils. I do know a few guys that haven't had the luck most of us have, but as they say YMMV.

The Singapore-Cebu connection on Silk Air is now twice a day. I saw this new flight leaving Singapore at 2210, so it must get to Cebu around 2 am. This probably means the return starts back around 3 am. So one last night-time shag before heading back to points west or south is very possible.

[QUOTE=X Man]Mahku, thanks for a great post. On my last trip I hit MLA, Cebu and Davao and had a few things lined up at each place. As you've suggested, nothing really turns out as expected.

At each location I had a no. 1 girl that I wanted to meet, but never met any of the three.

But the really strange thing is that the no. 1 at cebu just happened to be a CB girl named Kristine. She answered one message I sent from Manila, but no replies after that. Later, she told me she had lost her cell phone.

By any chance does your Christie work at a department store?

I wonder if it's worthwhile to start a matchmaking site thread on this board. I suspect the girls in a particular Internet cafe are sharing notes on the playboys they are chatting with....maybe we should be doing the same. Anyone interested?

X Man[/QUOTE]

Christie doesn't work. She just sits around and thinks about sex all day. She's definitely a bit on the psycho side. Her Cherry Blossoms profile went on about 'saving it for her husband' but about 27 minutes after meeting her that notion had been put to the sword. Then she spent the next 3 days feeling guilty and alternately blaming me and blaming herself. I declined offers of further relations in favor of more well-adjusted individuals.

Well gentlemen, from the tone of the posts I see cebu is much the topic, sorry I missed you Mahku, I just left sunday, we could have had some interesting times I had a pair of beauties looking for another foreigner. Anyway I had four days to myself in Cebu and decided against my better judgement to go absolutly off the deep end after restraining myself and being such a 'reformed' good boy for so long. Sometimes I am amazed at the restrain we expats show, we are litterally surround by a sea of pretty ass yet we do not indulge......but sometimes.....wellllllllll.

So those of you who have seen the spamhog in person know Im not exactly eye candy for a Filipina, to add to the problem, I recently shaved my head and present a somewhat fearesome appearance. Oh Well, but the irish gift of gab is still there and for grins I decided to try it out. I headed straight for Ayala mall like a predatory hawk looking for chickens.

Gentlemen, it was even easier than I remembered, All I did was sit around at D'Italia or Oh George coffee shop and look at women, if they looked back I smiled and moved out a chair and invited them for coffee. My first hour, I finish a frozen Cappucinno and see a young lady sitting on the lounge cahirs staring at me, I smile, she smiles back, I nod to the chair at my table, she smiles shly looks around and gets up, showing her slim body, She bores an eyeball through me and begins to walk up the escalator, wants me to follow, okay, I pay my bill, leave a tip and follow the honey trail. Upstairs she lingers by the railing. I look at her and she sizes me up, a refugee from WWF, ugly as sin but Im dressed well in slacks and collared shirt, clean a full wallet not doubt, bingo!

"Hi, would you like a snack?" (I ask in Cebuano) she grins, a small discoloration to her front tooth but otherwise cute (25, long hair, slim 32 B bra size, golden brown complexion pretty eyes, realllll shy). We sit down at the food court and talk. Shes going to school (Aha a tuition girl!!!!!!) no classes today, nothing to do so shes at Ayala. I take her number and promise to call her or text her later for a possible "dinner date" (afterwhich she is gonna be dessert), she gives me a big grin eyes all a sparkle and I go back to my post downstairs.

About 4 PM I see not one but two melon butted bimbos strolling past, one has a nice round ass and BIG TITS, not that great of a face but......

HI, wheres your wife? (she asks)

Dont have one of those (I lie)

Big grin......"Oh?"

would you ladies like a coffee?????

Yes....smiles all around (HMMMMMM a double team later?)

So over coffee she tells me she is putting herself through school giving "massages".

"I see, massages eh?" "Both you ladies?" Yes, both......

Both their numbers go into the magic sex machine called a cell phone for future reference.

Third kitty of the day is upstairs as I go into the Netopia internet,she stared a hole in my bullet shaped head.

"Hi, you like big ugly foreigners" I ask her in Visayan laughing.

She covers her mouth and laughs. Later over a few cokes she gives me her number, wants to "see my hotel" I say....maybe later.

Anyhow, In an afternoon's time I have two tuition girls and a possible tag team(the spamhog's favorite indulgence) lined up.

Now, post number two in this line will deal with the follow up on those chance meetings, plus a few other interesting comments, incidents, and near misses plus a direct hit or two....he he he he he he.

So gentlemen, the moral of the story is........one does not have to resort to bar hoping to find a "wife for the night" there are sooooooo many opportunities and soooooo many women looking. The internet, the chat lines, walking around in the Mall, the question is how do I make time for it all?


Stay tuned.


The Spamhog

Spamhog,

You have the most critical ingredients needed in the pursuit of happiness with the fairer sex: A Great Attitude and some money to spend.

Spam Hog, you made a great post, amusing and true. It is strange, but I make the most pick-ups in the crowd outside waiting for a mall to open at 10AM. One can always ask a cutie that eyes you 'when does the mall open?' and go on from there. Maybe thats when their need for sex builds after a boring previous night..I even had a dad talk to me and said he would like to introduce his daughter to me (picture in his wallet). The other place to be is in the mall restaurants when the colleges nearby break for lunch. Robinsons Ermita ground floor Tokyu Tokyu and the Italian nearby (not the food court) are cases in point, with the university nearby. I always follow the line 'wow that is a great choice, what is the name of that food you chose so well?' Female students flood in about 11:30 AM for lunch. Some a real stunners and the type that...well you find out.

I am an American living in Cebu, and the girls that you pick up downtown for short time should always be P500 paid upfront whether she has a pimp or not. There is no need to pay P1000, or to pay any extra tip to a pimp or anyone else.

The normal price to pay any pick- up girl in Cebu for short-time is P500 no matter if you find her on the street or at the mall. I have picked up at least a hundred of them in the past 6 years, and that is what I have always paid.

After the sex, it is fine to tip her based on the quality of her services, plus a small amount for taxi. I typicaly tip P100 or P200, and have not had any complaints. Also, I NEVER pick up women that have had kids, or that are over 25, I am very choosy, and it is still never necessary to pay over P500.

I've never been to the Phils before.

You are all talking about "picking up" girls in malls, cafes, streets etc. Is it really that easy? You sit somewhere and wait until the girls give you looks & smiles? Sounds like a paradise.

Sizing upo the logistical possibilites from my sojurn to Ayala, I opt for the kinkiest scenario and decide to ring up the two wandering massag girls. Now you gotta be careful with 2, while their doubel the fun, their double the trouble and can be rip offs, thieves or in cahoots with bad boys, so I paly it safe and meet them only at a public place for a meal and size them up first. I call miss big tits and set a time and place, okay she says.

She shows up alone, her friend can';t make it...busy.....oh well this one is a nice sturdy girl, big tits, wide hips and can take a good pounding no doubt, she is shy, aloof , doesn;t talk much despite my attempts at charm a student no less she says. Towards the end of the meal, she starts playing a little game, she begins texting me rather than tell me direct...cute, okay, I play along...
How about that massage she writes.....just a massage? I reply, MMMMMMMMMM she writes, U will C.....OK, how much? the standard professional answer....up 2 U honey. Good, pay the tab, leave atip hail acab and into the room. I figure she'll come out iof the bath in ten minutes with a towel around her if proceedure is properly followed. It isn;t ten minutes its one, and she fully clothed, she throws a towel on the bed and tells me to lay down and gives me a massage. after a few moinutes I get bored and ask her to get comfortable, take off her clothes etc. long story short, what she soon says makes me bust out laughing, not only from the staemnt but at my own stupidity.

"All I do is massage, Im still virgin and my mother says no fucking, but a blow job I can do."

When I get done laughing I tell her I want a blow job a fuck and maybe a few other things.....no way she says, blow job.....well honey thanks for the massage, now I'll take you downstairs and send you home to mama, all or nothing, lets go your wasting my time. I give her P200 for the massage and cab fare, laughing at my own foolishness as I know better.

Spamhogs rule....always, always always get them to talk specifics if your dealing with a pro, semi pro or amatuer who thinks she is a pro, a sex act for a price. I didn;t do that, got too bedazzled by those big tits which she wouldn;t even let me touch. Lesson learned and I know better. oh well, the best monger have a back up plan, I executed mine befoire her taxi pulled away fromt he curb.

I had met Carol online several weeks ago and had chatted her a few times, she is 29 a single mother, works and has a tough time of it, living with Mom and sister. I ring her up.

Coffee in a littel while at Starbucks near Ayala???? She is suprised and wants to know what hotel Im at (Spamhogs hint#2 NEVER tell em your hotel unless you are going to take them there, they can show up att the worst times like when you got one in the sack with you and she shows in the lobby asking for you) but she agrees to a meet....bingo!

Carol arrived freshly scrubbed and combed, looking very nice in black stretch pants and conservative blouse, hair pinned back. We hiot it off very well, she loves jokes and has a great sense of humor. This was so easy.

At precisely 11Pm Carol had fitted the Irish short sword in her tight little scabbard and was riding me cowgirl style to her first of several ogasms of the evening. She threw her head back and dug her nails in my chest like a wild cat. Carol claimed I was her first foriegner and she was a little curious and a little frightened but we got on like we'd been married for years, she wasn;t so great at a BJ but we worked on her technique, showed her some positions and had a great time. I also enjoyed her humor and we stayed up talking and fooling abournd until 2 AM. She wanted to go, realizing the time, and the text messages on her phone were wearing it out, But we fell asleep in each others arms.
6Am she was getting ready to leave and I pulled her in for round three

AIYEEEEEAAHHHH, you bad boy, so horny! I go to work now. She was very open about sexual matters, told me frankly that she often chatted "Hot talk" to foreigners and I suspect she had one or two guys sending her money for "Cybersex" cant blame her. I knew she wanted to ask me for $$$$$$ but she just was too embarassed afraid I'd have the wrong impression, so I decided to "help her out" and let her keep her dignity. I slipped her a P500 plus a few P100's in her purse when she wasn;t looking. I took her downstairs and put her in a taxi, giving her ahand full of P100 notes for the fare.

It was the right move, later I got texts from her thanking me for being so kind and understanding her situation. But that presented another problem.
Carol began texting me during the day with X ratred material.

"My pussy Hapdos, but I enjoy" (Hapdose means literally sore from fucking)

"I want 2 fuk U agin 2 Nite"

Now these messages are a pleasant reminder, but couple witht he fact that I was meeting another lady for lunch and well it could have got sticky.

I decided to line up one of the two I met yesterday in Ayala, the obvious amateur "pro" trolling around D'Italia was my first choice for a sure bet, but she wasnt responding. The cute, round faced bubbly young lady I met at the internet was open for a lunch time met. Bingo.

She shows up looking fresh and chic in a white slack and matching sleeveless ribbed turtle neck and flat heels outfit,. Just the righ amopunt of make up and luxurious hair combed out and swaying. We had an upscale lunch at a nice resturaunt and tehn on a whim I took her to Casino Filipino and showed her how to play a slot machine. KAra WAS A REAL NICE GIRL, DEGREE IN ENGINEERING, good family, (Mom was worried about her and kept texting her) she wanted a BF and a foreigner husband who would take her traveling and she wanted kids with him.

Well sports fans, I did something out of character for a dedicated monger....I gave her a pass...thats right, I enjoyed her company, she was nice, sweet and I probably could have taken her back to the room and done her, maybe not that afternoon but perhaps in one or two days, but she is the type who must have strong feelings before she will, I thought that charming her, taking advantage of her feelings and plowing her would ruin her. She is the type of Filipina a lot of guys come her to find, she will no doubt make some lucky guy an excellent wife, so I decided to send her back home to mama with her panties dry.

The spamhog is just all heart, but in post number three I will be back to my old self and relay my swashbuckling adventures in a go go bar and a few other ribauld tales that are sure to amuse and annoy.


Spamhog

having dropped Kara off I went back to the hotel for a tactical planning session for this evening's sortee into the local female population. All stratigic operations begin with a nap and after popping a few vitamin E tabs I lay down on the bed and drifted off. A few minutes later I hear a gawdawful banging on what I think is my door and a westerner calling for Help. Shit or go blind time!

It seems that some old gentleman was opting for some fresh air at the balcony door when it shut behind him locking him out. I opened the door and
the old fellow became my immediate friend. Lets call him Charley, he was a garoulous amusing old timer in his early 70's and still mongering...god bless him. It seems Charley was a permanent resident if the hotel and immediatley began to regale me with tales and stories. He invited me downstairs for dinner for "saving" him, he was a nice old fellow and I enjoyed talking to him so I accepted. Downstairs the old dog asks me if I want to go catting around with him to the lone star bar of all places.

"Ya Know, I met a dancer there last night, tall leggy gal, she wouldn't have anything to do with me, but Im gonna barfine her tonight, he he he he" he says in his high whinny voice

ALthough the though of wrinkled old Charley barfining and humping a tall leggy Filipina dancer would have been an amusing diversion, I passed, bars are just not my thing and anyway, Carol should be off work by now and she desperately needed to work on her oral skils.

It turns out Carol was probably nursing a bladder infection as she passed on a dinner invitation, so plan B for immediate execution with professinal precision.

I rang the little skinny girl I met in Ayala the day before, call her Elsie.

"what your hotel?" Bingo. Half and hour later she shows up in a cab and I pay the fare and invite her to my room, she immediately turns on cartoon network and helps herself to the arrray of snacks I have set out, yep this is the Philippines alright!

Elsie comes out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around her, shocked to see a big naked white guy on the bed, Irish short sword sharpened and ready. Underneath she has the standard issue uniform of the day for freelancers, size 32 B training bra and black thong panty, shes so shy she covers her face when I remove her towel and begin maneuvers, first charging the breastworks in a direct frontal assualt. The terrain is flat, very flat.

She is so slim and tight I wonder how she is going to fit, but she manages after a wholly inadequate BJ (honey, suck dont chew) impaling herself on my weapon with many a facial grimace and groan. I go through a few positions and she's really having a hard time. Afterwards I ask her if she can stay the night. "no no, I have to be home." Okay, honey I understand.
I give her P1000 a bag of M&M's and some small bills for cab fare and take her downstairs for her cab ride home. I get in the elevator with some lucky middle aged white guy who has his arm around two lovely brown skinned honeys, we give each other knowing grins as he eyes up my departing "girlfriend for an hour"

With Elsie on her way to the backdoor gynocologyst I realize it is early enogh in the evening to go hunting again. I make an appearance at ratsky's, see some upscale Filipinas dancing together and what looks like a few big boned Korean girls. Bored as hell I walk out after an hour. Shoud I or shouldn't I?
What the hell let me go to the lone star and See if Charley got his leggy dancer barfined and bedded by now.

Although Bars aren't my thing I've been in enough of them to know what to expect, the lone star bar was no different, filipinas in red bikinis dancing bum rush you when you come in the door asking for a ladies drink. I had no intention of barfining anyone but merely wished to amuse myself by their antics and do some people watching. Bunch of other white guys in the bar, drinking, playiing pool, girls hanging off them like christmas ornaments.

As is my habit, I sort of nickname the dancers based on physical traits or attributes. A set of four girls man the stage and bump to various disco tunes

ITEM:

A slim hipped dancer has a tattoo of the symbol for hazardous waste on her left ass cheek. "Do you know what that means honey?" I ask in Cebuano.
No she says, my boyfriend put it there. Aha!

Another one I nickname "Dragon belly" she has a red dragon tattoo circling her navel which is pierced with a few silver buttons, she rubs her belly against the dragon on my chest "so they fuck"... right.

A pugnacious little dancer I nickname "Tuff stuff" she was so insistant I buy her a lady drink I thought if I refused she would punch me out. I told her I wouldn't fuck her but I might put on the gloves and go a couple rounds.

It seems that through all the insanity around me I have attracted the attention of an older, more conservative BG, dressed in a short white skirt.
She is calm to the point of being lethargic, she explains that she doesn;t have the body for dancing. At one time Im sure she did, taller than average, long legs and a long athletic looking torso. This is her eight month in the bars, no choice as her husband died last year leaving her and two kids without a peso. She was nice, I liked her, we talked like old friends, joked around. She kept leaning her head against my shoulder, "I'm sorry, I so sleepy".

I wondered if this was Charley's leggy dancer, probably not, I see a few other tall Filipinas who would qualify. Meantime, I'm looking this one over and feeling the littel devil that always sits on my shoulder jab his pitchfork in my balls. Gemma is her name and she is half way suprised as I am when I call Mama san over and ask about the barfine. Later, I found out she doesn't get much action, everybody wants the younger sexier looking gals.

P675 to take Gema back to the hotel, plus a ladies drink and a few beers on my end, tab comes to about P1000 throw down a tip and she comes out looking like a housewife going to the market with jeans, a conservative blouse
an sandals.

Now why did I do that? I wonder as I get her in the cab. I dont know, still cant figure it out, it just happened. I think part of it was she was so low profile and so low key and genuinely a nice person to talk to. I know, bullshit from bargirls are SOP but I had no doubt her tale of woe was true, so many of them are,I think I just wanted a warm body to sleep next to was most of it.

Gemma was a nice comfortable fuck, nothing great, I didn't want it to be, she was sleepy and so was I, so we cuddled up together and dozed off after an easy session. we were both tired and slept until about 8 am, I woke her up and did her again nice and easy. She refused an invitation to breakfast and said she had to be somewhere at 9 am. I slipped P2000 in her purse just for the hell of it, felt more like a couple who had been married for years than a bargirl for a night.

So two days left to my mini sexual safari and things are about to take a turn for the worst, stay tuned for more.


Spamhog

You can always count on spamhog for humorous yet informative posts.I can only agree that knowing the local language really helps.Hopefully We will have more to come

I've had some great times in Angeles City, but alas... it's time to move on to different pastures in the Philippines. My face has become too well know in AC. You would be surprised at how small that place is once you've been there a dozen times. All the girls seem to be related or know each other, and you keep bumping into the one's you have done already, all day and night long. So Cebu will be my next mark. SpamHog has given me reason to change my trip location through his excellent reports. It seems that the hunting is good in Cebu, so I'm looking forward to a possible March 06 trip or sooner. Keep up the great posts Spamhog!

Yella Man

Looking at your last series of photos from AC, I would have to say its not your face that has become known in AC :D ([size=1] Sorry couldn’t resist that[/size])

Cebu is great place, smaller and slightly conservative than AC but you can have fun there.

Ah, me public! thanks to ur encouragement I shall yield the following tale of woe and debauchery, It is Stauday morning in Cebu and I have just sent last nights "Wife for a night" on her way, field rations including doses of coffee are on my mind and I head for the hotel eatery and lo an behold the Hotels sexiest senior citizen, charley, is having breakfast with a conserative looking brown skinned honey, Charley invites me over and introrduces his regular GF, I guess he didn't have to go bar hopping last night, she gives me a frosty smile and I peg her for early 30's church going type who only bonks old guys for love, I wonder if she saw me sneak the hooker into a cab? ANyhow, I decline Charley's offer to have his GF fix me up with a friend for an afternoon at the mall. I figure Carol's bladder infection will allow our planned afternoon delight after lunch.

Carol is still texting me with all kinds of sexy material and im suprised when she bows out of lunch and sets a dinner date "Maybe". Oh well. Now here gentlemen is wher ethe spamhog commits a logistic error.
I have now plowed three different ladies in the same Hotel, I should have changed Bivoacs but didn't....getting sloppy I guess. It woudl be disasterous for one or more of them to show up when with a current "guest" but....I took the chance or ignored it whatever, it would set the stage for a possible cat fight later.

I decided to go to the gym, go ahead an laugh, I've heard all of your suggestins about picking up girls on a boat, in the Mall, outside a college and of course in chrurch, but how many of you score in a gym? Well try it, once upon a time the spamhog cut a swath through student nurses attending aieorobics classes at Bee fit gym across from Davao Dr's college but thats another story. point is, you can do well if you time it right....like ladies aeorobics on Saturday.

Not much doing at the Mango square gym, I limp back to the hotel and read more of Carols texts, figure dinner and a hump is a given. To my suprise, the dinner hour rols around and Carols gives me more excuses, no show.

Okay now here is where tactical planning takes effect, have apback up plan. choice A is skinny little elsie from the day before...not exactly high on my list
or hunting up something in the bar, once again barfines are not my thing unless a last ditch effort.

However it is Saturday night in Cebu and no monger worth his codpiece should ever dispare, there is a whole city of beautiful willing women. and I decide it worth the hunt. So I suit up, shave my head, my face and put on some nice duds

First stop is Ayala near the outdoor bars and resturants near ratsky's, problem is the gals are in three's and fours, hard to find one along, but I see a few pairs, however, they dont seem too interested. Okay, its the sunflower
for sure The sunflower is almost a sure bet, and one is not limited to Filipina, I know a former coleague who swears he tags Jap and Korean girls al the time, however, he is a good dancer and I am not. I also know the Filipino lad have afield day with these tourists, who every once in a while like a big nasty looking gaijin.

It is Ladies night, no fee for ladies and the place is loaded by 9 PM when I walk in. In twenty minutes I have made contact with two, yes two Lovely local lasses who try to drag me out on the dance floor, looking like a performing circus bear I try my best, I'm getting real chummy with one of them, very forward and flirty, but her friend is puting a damper on things, my new GF, call her Jody, wants to know if I have a freind for her friend, I think about Charley and shake my head slowly, "sorry hun, just me tonight". A lot of talk is going on between these two, I catch a few words and Jody's friend is somewhat intimidated at one point Jody says "It wil be fun", I wonder if she is trying to talk her friend into a double team? HMMMMMMMM I should be so lucky.

Now a Tactical mistake on my part, if I would have been cool, laid back and let it happen, it might have happened, however, I came across too strong, too agresive and I think this scared the friend enough that it was a no go. An hour later, not able to convience either one or both of them to "go somewhere else" I pay the bar bill and leave, I get phone numbers but wont have a chance to follow up.

What I did next turned into a nightmare of the worst porortion, stay tuned and find out. Murphy, that Irish bastard, and damn his law, reaches out and kicks me in the teeth. How can he do that to a true celtic son? Oh well!

IF ANYTHING CAN GO WRONG IT WILL AND AT THE WORST POSSIBLE MOMENT

Juniour,

Your absolutely right....What was I thinking? :-)

Every General in History must have looked back on his victory or defeat and determined the exact turning point, like a coach in a football game or Donald Trump closing a Billion $$$$$ deal. So it was with my so far unsuccessful saturday evening in Cebu. I pegged the problem to a series of mistakes that hopefully other mongers will not repeat in the quest for the GTF (Grand Tsunami fuck)

Combat gear: My cellphone was running out of charge all the time, possible faulty batery this caused me to turn it off from time to time, thus I missed messages in a timely manner. HInt, every monger should have a cell phone, buy a cheap one if you don't, also you can get an extra sim pac...one for business, one for pleasure.

Failure to network and keep in contact with other mongers: I had largely operated alone, however, Filipina are rarely alone in many situations such as Disco's et al, it is a good idea to have another monger's phone number or general whereabouts in case of a situation in which one wants to go but doesn;t want to abandon her friend (s)

Over eagerness: This is a killer, you have to be laid back and easy going with Filipina, they dont respond well to pressure and haste, being an easy going gentlemen will get you more than being too forward too fast, some of them downright fear this.

P.S. an overly stiff woody can influence you and cause you to be inpatient, a disaster, these girls can sense too much testosterone. CHILL OUT!

I was doing everything wrong at the Sunflower, I had met two lovelies, one of which seemed the more eager of the pair but wanted me to find a "friend for her friend" I tried geting one or both of them to leave an hour after I met them, too soon.

I had to make a tactical decision, stay there and try to convience the eager one a romp in my room was better than dancing with her friend, which might have entailed hanging around in this place until 1 or 2 am, (Still no guarantee that I was gonna get laid) or chalk it up. I decided to move on, I briefly considered making a play for one of the Jap girls who were dancing up a storm, mostly among themselves, one wild thing was doing the Osaka version of dirty dancing with a pair of Filipina girls amid much screaming and carrying on, they were gonna be a while. If I was a good dancer or could speak better Japanaese (I'm limited to martial arts terms in that area, of course Keiko san could have a whole other meaning for "floating hip throw" he he he ) So I pass and decide on a sure thing....back to the Lone Star.

Now as I've said, I'm not a big one for bar fining, but time was growing short and I needed "what position you like" not "maybe, if "or "can you get a friend for my firend." I'd been there previously and saw the selection and knew what to expect, besides, I thought the P675 bar fine and tip her accordingly accordingly more acceptable than the P2000 to P2500 I was hearing for places like the black hole or dimples, neither of which I had ever set foot in.
Besides, I heard the guy who managed the bar was a fellow American, buy American what the hell.

So in I go to the lone star. It is black bikini night, the ladies recognize me from the previous night and hoot and hollar,a few rush up for a ladies drink but I politely shoe them away. I see Gemma, my previous nights roll and she gives me a big, albeit sad, smile. I sit next to her mainly to keep the other "eager beavers" (Literally) at bay. I also immediately order her a ladies drink, several tactical reasons for this, it gives her a chance to earn, she gets a commission on each one, also to talk to her without pressure form the others. It was the right move, by and by I tell Gemma she was nice but...
You want other girl? No problem she says, want me to help you?" Errr, yeah
like I say, she was mature and sensible, no acting stupid like some of them do.

She calls over one of her friends, repeats her history, 19, been at he bar three months, cute but......"You want wild girl?" she asks she points out tuff stuff....no way, she'd kick my ass. I say. I notice an unusual dancer who takes center stage, this girl is in direct contrast to the "talent" around her. She is definitely not in the mold, she is tall, maybe 5'6, dark, very dark, so dark, no BLACK I would have thought cuban or even somalian, her hair is bobbed short and she grinds seductively a willowy torso and great long legs.

"You like her? New girl" Gemma tells me "Just Hired today" HMMMMMM????

I know, everybody thinks he's goinna walk into a bar and find a fresh provincial princess that has never known a white man, well Malou was not that, but close to it.
She recited her history for me, age 20, previously worked two months at Exotica last year, left in January and had been living in some godforsaken village down south until this week when she decided she needed money again, had her check up yesterday (Showed me her GRO even!) and got hired this afternoon, it was her first night in the lone Star. I also found her pleasant, not hardened like some of the vixens around me, she said she read books everyday to study english and she seemed to enjoy the attention.

Now heres an aside gentlemen, in her society she is considered ugly by virture of her unusually dark skin and native facial features. Never mind the athletic build and long limbs, they probably call her 'blackie' or something back home, now a foreigner is paying attention to her and treating her nice and she's eating it up.

One barfine coming up. I get slim in a taxi and head back to the hotel an here is where Murphies law kicks in, just as I open the door for my fair lady, up rolls another taxi and Carol unloads, sees me with miss Africa look a like and
throws a hissy fit. Later I find out from the text messages on her phone she is coming over, had a change of heart, maybe all that hot talk on the computer today watching guys jerk off made her horny for the real thing, whatever, who knows what goes on in a filipinas mind, she decides to show up unannounced and now we got a problem.

She is raising such a fuss I figure the security and night man at the hotel might beef with me. However, I've been treating these guys good, slipping them tips when I sneak women past them into my room etc. So I hustle dark lady inside and they tell Carol "Gawass" (Get out). It could have turned ugly but I disappeared inside before she began throwing things which would have probably been added on my bill for anything she broke. Malou was a bit upset but I managed to convince her that was not my wife (Shes in Hong kong now thank god) or real GF.

Anyhow, Malou was terrific, I made the right choice, thanks to Gemma being cool about it (I sipped her a generous tip under the table before I left) This dusky maid gave one of he best BBBJ I ever had. Round two found her tight and versitile, she truly enjoyed her work, I suppose despite my head on encounter with wacko Carol she wasn't that upset after all.

I gave her P2000 as good luck for her first night at the new job. Wish I could have gone back for more but alas the next day, back to reality and looking in all four directions for crazy Carol before I left the hotel, I guess im crossed off her chat list permanently!

Spam hog

Spam Hog,

Thanks for the great FR! I enjoyed reading that imensely! I wish I had a reason to go to the Phils for business. Did you get any pics?

Wulfe

Wulfe:

I had considered taking a photo of yon dusky maid with my cell phone camera and submititng it, (Purely for artistic purposes you understand) as her "Jade Gate" pink and pleasant, while her things splayed was a sharp contrast to her ebon skin tone, however, photos do constitute evidence and Mrs Spamhog might not have a deep appreciation for the aestehic beauty of such an image as we all do.

Also gentlemen I did not specifically name the venues I stayed in to preserve the confidetiality of fellow mongers and their ladies but there are a number of hotels in cebu which I have patronized over the years:

Northwinds...the cheapest and walking distance to Sunflower
Richmond Hotel.... A favorite with Westerners
Eddies, you can walk your find of the night from Lone star
Mango Hotel, close to the action of the black hole et al
Castle peak, close to Ayala
Regal Business park...walk to Ayala
Abuhan...kind of a dive but close to Robinson Plaza, and several bars close by, you can walk your "date" out of thunder dome and up the stairs with out the clerk seeing, although they dont care.

Price ramge is P900 to P1400 dependingon the room (I prefer a king size bed for my feats of carnailty)


SPamhog

Thank you SH, for the brief hotel review. I've never been in any of them. The place near Sunflower sounds VERY interesting.

Strangly enough, I actually met Eddie. Has anyone else?

I am planning my first trip to the Philippines this coming January or February. Although I have not visited either Angeles City or Cebu, I have read both forums and done quite a bit of research already. I am planning on visiting both Angeles and Cebu during this short 2-week trip. I am very interested in some travel planning advice, perhaps from guys that have been to both places before.

I have gathered that Angeles is a great place for mongering only, has lots of pretty girls, and is very inexpensive. Boracay is nearby, if one wishes to get away from Angeles with a Pinay for a couple of days. Cebu has beaches nearby, has a night life that is a little more expensive in terms of barfines, and has much more to do during the day. Flights between Angeles and Cebu appear to be really cheap, around 1200 pesos.

I am also trying to decide if I should land in the Philippines at Cebu or Manila. Since I am coming from Hong Kong, I can choose either. Landing in Manila would allow me to also check out the scene there, but would cut into my short 2-week trip.

I am looking for a suggested itinerary (how many days to spend where and do what), with the following objectives:
- 2 week total duration
- Reasonable cost
- Mainly focused on finding beautiful women for company, but
- Also some other interesting activities to do during the day, after the mongering starts to wear a little thin.
- In short, the greatest overall value experience for the trip budget.

Any help is appreciated. I am happy to reciprocate with information on southern China, with which I am familiar and have posted over 100 times about it. And if I meet up with a contributor to my cause, I’ll gladly buy him a drink or two.

Raz

RasSpewtin,

You should may be land in Manila and hit AC righ away then back to Manila for more of the same and hopefully find a companion for Boracay (stay for at least 3-4 nights). From Boracay you can easily go to Cebu, though I've never mongered in Cebu. There's lots of local supply in Boracay they hang out at Summers Place and Cocomangas BUT I always preferred to bring my own.

Lots to do and see in Manila, there's Burgos for the tourist/mongers and Quezon Ave more for the locals or visitors that know there way around town.

Have a great time!

IB

Ilongo B has the right idea. With two weeks you could easily hit both MLA and Cebu. You could easily hit a few other islands as well.

Love that handle!

My suggestion is that you take Cathy Pacific directly to cebu. I've flown them a number of times to and fro Hong Kong from Cebu, Mrs Spamhog flew back and forth there while I was running amok in Cebu. The reason I suggest this is for:

Economy, Going direct to Cebu will save you the airfare from Manila. CP has some good deals

Manila sucks, the airport is a hassle, Cebu has a nicer quieter airport

Variety: Look at my posts, I scored from a number of sources and techniques which any idiot (I'm the biggest idiot around) can get lucky with a minimum of effort whereas in Angeles you are kind of limited to bargirls, off duty and on.

COSTS: Cebu is also cheaper than Manila, just follow the clues from my posts(an others) about hotels. You can get lucky in Manila in the malls and all, just like anywhere in the PI, but it is easier to get around in Cebu less traffic= taxi fare.

Also, I suggest you find a cebu doll and bring her to Bohol, Panglao beach is just as good as the over rated (IMHO) boracay, and Bohol is about an hour by super cat (hydrofoil) from cebu, the Cebuana you will find will jump at the chance for a trip there with a dashing foreigner. CHeaper to take a girl from Cebu to Bohol than one from Manila or Angles to Boracay. Of course going to Boracay from Cebu is easier also, actually closer.

I also suggest you check out places like CDO city, overnight ferry from Cebu and foreigners are a novelty there, also Dumagette with its nurses colleges.

Good lick (er is it luck?)

Spam hog

SuperCat no longer goes to Bohol but, Ocean Jet still does and I think Weesam does too, although their website has all runs to and from Bohol to Cebu canceled. I know they were having problems with Ocean Jet in court. I don't know if it was resolved. Weesam is cheaper, p350 vs Ocean Jet p500 if I recall correctly. But yes I agree, I would go directly to Cebu then too Bohol. Then again that's exactly what I did...

As Spam Hog suggested, the flights from HK to Cebu direct on Cathay are a great option. The last time I was in Cebu, that's exactly what I did.

The only point I'd add is to check with your travel agent about fares on both Cathay Pacific and Philippine Airlines. Philippine Air does a code share on the Cathay direct to Cebu flights from HK. When I booked, the cost through Philippine Airlines was quite a bit lower.

CS

Had delays on both ends when I used Cathay to get to Cebu. HK to Cebu it was apparently a technical glitch. Well, we shouldn't complain about people making sure the aircraft works. :-)

Cebu to HK was apparently weather related problems, but the delay caused me to miss my connection to Tokyo. They did finally get me on a flight to Tokyo, but arrival time was after the last train had departed the airport. Anyone who has been to Narita knows that a taxi is the last option you want to take.

Fortunately, Cathay offerred me a room for the night or a bus to Tokyo or Shinjuku. Fortunately (funny how your luck changes when you least expect it) I had a friend living near Shinjuku and could easily walk there. The next guy wasn't so lucky. He was a hs English teacher and had classes starting early in the morning...and had no way to get there.

Not sure if this was just a fluke or not, but in the end Cathay tried hard to resolve the problems and I was merely inconvenienced rather than seriously screwed.

I met Cebu Eddie first and last time in 1990 when he offerred me a ride when I was walking down some hill from the Chinese temple. Much to my objections, I ended up in Eddie's log cabin...and the events that day have scarred me for life. No, just joking, it was a bizarre experience and I've once told the story here before...I won't bore anyone with it again.

Love to hear your stories though...

Hi mongers,

Just hoping someone could give me an update on what's happening down in lovely Cebu? I was last there back in December 2003. I will be coming back to the P.I in March and would love to head back down to Cebu.

Had a great time drinking and shagging girls from the Lone Star bar, Papillion, Black Hole and Exotica. There was this one bird in Exotica (Melody I think her name was) who would always manage to get me up to the VIP Karaoke rooms. Once there she would be only interested in one kind of microphone hahahaha. Every so often the waitresses would interrupt. That just made it more exciting.

So just hoping someone can let me know whether those bars are all still open? Also what kind of prices can I expect these days? Beers, LD's, ST, LT? VIP rooms?

Happy mongering.

Anyone hanging in Cebu? I am here this week from BKK, then will go to Dravo.

Regards

Khun Larry

Anyone need a wingman in Cebu around Dec 27-Jan5?

I have a few girls to meet and also will go bar hopping. Mabye the discos: Sunflower.

I've never been to Juke Box or Ratskys. Where are they and what can I expect?

What is the name of the expat bar downtown near the university?

I also want to hit at least one other place. Dumaguete or Bohol or Surigao. I know there are boats to both Dumaguete and Bohol, but what would be the best way to Surigao? I'm not a diver, nor surfer,but I do like beaches and snorkeling.

Any info would be much appreciated.

Ratskys is a good place to bring one of your girlfriends. They usually have good bands there. And the dance floor is small, which means you and your girl will probably be pressed up against each other. Not a bad thing. It's in the entertainment area of Ayala Mall.

As for going hunting, I always feel like Sunflower is better than Ratskys. Something about the layout of the place I guess. The greater number of standing areas and the traffic patterns seem to give one more chances for encounters at Sunflower. YMMV however. In addition to ladies nights, I noticed Ratskys also has nurses nights. It could be worth a try. Outside of Ratskys is an open area between all the bars and restaurants where lots of people just hang out. A handy exchange place is here that stays open late. There's a Bo's Coffee Shop and some restaurants. There's a Starbucks just outside. And farther outside across a small park from the mall there's a Havana Bar which might be worth a look even though there wasn't anything on the Saturday night I went there.

Sorry, I've never been to the Juke Box or the expat bar downtown.

Joking, I've been to our place in 1990 and again in 2005. I was just trying to remember the name. It may be dead but after a spending a few hours downtown fighting the crowds and air pollutions it is a nice refuge. In 2005 it was dead, although I was there in the late afternoon. In 1990 I had a real stunner come on to me. I got cold feet when she suggested we go downstairs and play pool.

Eddie -- yes, I once spent an evening in "his office" which is the table in the back of Eddie's log cabin. This is a bar in downtown Cebu which has a log facade. I don't know if it's still there.

Lots of Filipino businessman joined the meeting / party, many wearing the traditional dress shirt -- the name which escapes me at the moment. Is it barang? I remember one of the businessmen saying he was selling property and Eddie lambasted him, saying that it was rebel territory.

I did catch him out in a lie about his age, so I wasn't sure which stories were true. He certainly had some good ones. For example, he was in a bank during an armed robbery. He was worried that the robbers would also shake down the customers, so he stuffed his Rolex down the back of the chair he was next to. Later, in all the post-robbery excitement, he left the bank without his watch.

Mahku, thanks for the info on discos. Where did you stay when you were in Cebu?

X Man[/QUOTE]HERE ARE SOME ANSWERS

Pawnshop below Our Place nowadays. There was a sleazy go go bar below Our Place Bar/Restaurant in days of old. Girls came upstairs from time to time , same management/lessee those days. No doubt Pool table there too that time. Long gone. After Australian lessee went broke , Wes took over more or less permanently until recently and its gone downhill , not worth visiting. You can get away from it all at a nice quiet expat bar at Kiwi Lodge ,surprised you havent heard about it. Good food , nice waitresses , no comparison Our Place and Kiwi Lodge. G. Tud Tud Street Mabolo P40 taxi ex Fuente. They have nice accommodation too. One stop shop , except no unnattended pay for play on premises. A nice respite from the sex scene.

There is another brand new expat bar called Badger. Classy , and some classy girls hanging around there looking for a 'husband'. Not a lot but some. Hot pants girl at front door is a real welcome. Picked up a hot to trot non pay for player there few months ago. About 2 or 3 hundred metres on right hand side , past Gaisano Country Mall Banilad. One hundred metres past Mall get driver to slow down , they dont know it , new. Its on corner of street right hand side. Easy to fly past it. Big Badger sign over front door. Maybe one hundred metres past Mall get out of taxi opposite side to Mall and on highway and walk the rest , other wise you might miss it. On right hand side. Right now possibly classiest roomiest bar in Cebu City , two levels , no pay for play scene though. British Manager there every day. Name Tony. Prices reasonable. Didnt try food. Think you will like it.

Eddies is still there , still the coldest beer in Philippines with jugs actually frozen. Eddie taught them good. Yes he told me the manila bank robbery story too and many others over about 25yrs. I dont think Eddie told lies intentionally. But yes he did lie about his age and most probably 'indian' ancestory. Had all grey hairs dyed out too. He lied about his age cause he was still interested in the chicks and didnt want his real age bandied around. Characters tell fibs , they dont lie , ha ha. Did you notice large canvas painting of Eddies supposedly grandpa or father hanging from the rafters ? Its a painting of an Indian Chief full feathers flowing the lot. Indian Chief , Log Cabin , Eddie. A character Eddie. It tickled Eddies fancy having it there. Staff believed he was of American Indian descent , if you think about Eddies face lines , it figures. Never broached the subject with him , didnt know what reaction I'd get. I sometimes spoke to the elderly Filipino businessmen at the Cabin and they verified Eddies Miss Philippines stories. They saw them and other beauties in Coffee Shop days of old. Last time I was there a Catholic Priest drinking lots of beer verified some of Eddies achievements and exploits also. A Journalist or Author befriended Eddie and then published his findings in an American Magazine yonks ago. Didnt please Eddie , hence he clammed up a bit with strangers from that point on. Personally I think Eddie was the real deal. Once in a life time character.

Barong. I have been guilty of wearing them when I was young and foolish.

Offline now.

I was in Cebu recently (picked the spot thanks to the many posts I had seen here before) and had a great time. A buddy of mine flew in to meet me, and our first night there we asked our driver to take us to a place to meet "lots of pretty local girls" (sidenote: we had a driver compliments of a local businessman who did business with a friend of mine in the States. While we did not have to pay him, I hear that drivers are very cheap there should you want to hire someone. And I highly recommend it).

Anyway, the first spot he takes us to is Arena. We had no idea what to expect, and were in fact expecting a local club, but this was obviously filled with working girls. There were many, many beautiful girls there. We didn't stay for more than a few minutes as my friend did not want a working girl (I wouldn't have minded, though), so I have no idea what the price would have been there. But from what I saw, the place looked great.

We went to a second club, then, and it turned out to be the same thing. As we were leaving, a girl in the parking lot walked by and we asked her where a good local spot to go would be. She said the Sunflower, and said she and her friend would be happy to join us. We passed, even though they were attractive, because we assumed they were working.

We get to Sunflower and it's pretty empty (10pm on a Sunday night). A cover band is playing, and they're pretty good. A few groups of mostly girls are dancing and having a good time. We get a few drinks and then take one of the "VIP" tables for something like 2000P drink minimum. I highly recommend getting a table, as it makes it easier for the girls to spot you.

A few drinks later another cover band goes on, and they're great. My buddy and I meet a Canadian guy who's there, and he tells us to just go up to whatever girls we want to meet and start dancing with them. We spot a group of three girls and do just that. They're a little shy to start, but they laugh at the goofy American guys dancing with them. We leave the girls for a bit and head back to our table. The Canadian comes over and says the girls are definitely not working, as he had met them before and had never gotten anywhere with them (he lived in Cebu). We talk to a few other girls but then head back to the original three. We have some more drinks, dance some more, talk a bunch, and have a real good time with them. Next thing we know it's 3: 30am and the place is closing down. One of the girls has already left, since she had a boyfriend, so my buddy and I each have a girl (both 22). We ask them if they want to go back to our hotel and "watch some tv. " Sure, they say.

We pile into the van (our driver refused to leave us. Guess he was under instructions to make sure we didn't get into too much trouble) and headed back to the hotel (great hotel, by the way. Email me if you want to know which one it was). We get up to our floor and my buddy and I each head to our respective rooms with a girl. The girls kind of laugh nervously, because they didn't know we were going to different rooms. Wasn't a problem, though, and off we go.

Back in my room we put the tv on. Watch a little bit, then we decide to "crash" for the night. She comes out of the bathroom wearing bra and panties. Climbs into bed, lights out, and we start to kiss. One thing leads to another, and it's an awesome, safe, night.

Next morning the four of us meet up for breakfast. My buddy had just as good a time as I did. We get the girls a taxi and offer to give them some money for the fare. They refuse. We have their numbers, so we say we'll call them later. Great first night with real local girls.

Night number two, and jet lag starts to catch up with us. We did some sightseeing during the day, talked to the girls from the night before, but decided to call it an early night and get some rest.

The next day more sightseeing (and 18 rounds of golf at the Cebu Country Club. Highly recommended), and we're off to a dinner with our host (the guy who has provided the van/driver for us). Great dinner, and he introduces us to some local Philippine celebrities. After dinner, one of the guys we meet offers to take us to some local bars/clubs. Again, not places where the working girls are. Just the normal girls (hell, maybe there is no such thing as a "normal" girl, but let me think that.). I text message the girls from Sunday night and tell them we don't know if we'll be able to meet up tonight, but we'll call them if we break free from our dinner obligations. Good to have a backup plan.

First spot was nice. Trendy ouside bar. Not a lot of girls there, though, so we head to a place called Pump. Not too crowded at 10pm, but lots of attractive girls there (and guys as well, of course). It's a great club, by the way. Good crowd, girls dancing on the bar, etc. My buddy and I get tons of stares from the girls, and we grab a table with some drinks. After the first round our local friend wanders off to say hello to some girls who apparently had been checking us out. The two girls come over (both 22) and we chat with them. We both hit it off and talk to them for a couple of hours, we meet their other friends, we dance, etc. Then, a very memorable moment.

My buddy, the girl he's talking to, and our local friend go outside to get some fresh air. I'm sitting there with the other girl (who is sitting very close to me). Suddenly out of the corner of my eye I see a girl walking by, stop, do a double take, and point at me. She disappears. The girl she's with stops and looks at me, and I look at her. Total eye contact. It's the two girls from our first night in Cebu. Her mouth drops open and she runs out of the place. Unbelievable. What are the odds of running into them? So much for the backup plan.

My friends return, and we tell the two girls that we are planning on going to the beach the next day. Are they interested in going with us? They say yes, they'd love to. Okay, we then get them to agree to "crash" at our hotel so we can leave early the next morning. We all get in the van and we drop each girl off at her apartment, and my buddy and I head back to the hotel. The driver then goes back to pick up the girls once they packed their stuff for the next day and brings them to the hotel. Back to the rooms.

So. My girl goes into the bathroom to shower and get ready for bed. She comes out wearing a tank top and denim shorts. Huh? Oh well. She climbs into bed and we start making out. Lots of touching, everywhere, kissing, etc. But nothing else. That's okay, I'm tired. We go to sleep. In the morning I try again, but same thing. I figure she's shy, conservative. Maybe she's not ready to give it up on the first night. Fair enough.

We all have breakfast, and my buddy tells me off to the side about the phenomenal sex he had all night. Dammit! Off to the beach, and the girls are great. They enjoy spending time with us, they're smart (both students, one in nursing) and they don't complain about anything. We charter a small boat and do some island hopping. After a long day we head back to the hotel, change, and have dinner. Then back to the rooms for our last night in the Philippines.

And guess what. Same thing happens as the previous night. In the morning, I seem to be making some more progress when my buddy and his girl start pounding on the door at 8: 30am to get us up to go have breakfast. Argh! My girl jumps out of bed and gets dressed. We go down to breakfast and my friend asks how I did. He laughs. Said his girl told him at 4am that my girl was a virgin, and that she (my girl) told her that she wasn't ready to give it up yet. That would be my luck. Meanwhile, my friend was at it the entire night.

Well, in spite of that the trip to Cebu was awesome and highly recommended. Definitely easy to meet beautiful, non-working girls there who will not ask you for a peso. My buddy and I are now planning a return trip in February. Will let you know what happens.

I will be visiting Cebu City for a couple of months after a long absence. The last time was 97 I think, the peso was 33/us$

Has there been much inflation in those years? ie, does the 50=p you get for a us$ now get you more than the 33P, or did inflation eat that up?

Also, I'm looking for a hotel recommendation. I'd prefer central location, but as I am noise sensitive (PI is a hard place for me becase of the noise). Any suggesstions on a quiet place that is visitor/girl friendly, reasonably priced, say 1500p or so?

Thanks all

Looking for QUIET, centrally located Cebu City hotel that is visitor/girl friendly for a couple of months starting late Jan, approx 1500P range

Any suggestions?

thx

Mahku, thanks for the info on discos. Where did you stay when you were in Cebu?

X Man[/QUOTE]

More often than not I've been in the Marriott. It's got a good gym, mediocre pool, pretty good breakfast and good views from the room which is a turn-on for the girls. It's a short walk through a park to Ayala Mall, which also has Ratskys Live Bar and other places I mentioned below. So it saves on taxi rides both in the daytime and at night. And most other places a monger wants to go to are on the order of 5 to 10 minute rides. The only problem here is price. As recently as 2 years ago I was paying in the low 2000s. But in quick succession it's gone to 3300 to 3800 and now 4300, breakfast for 2 included. This is about the highest I'm willing to pay when there are cheaper alternatives around.

I also often use the Midtown Hotel at Fuente Osmena. It sits on top of Robinsons Mall, which has good working girl traffic. The coffee shop in the middle of the mall is never lacking for horn dog mongers. It's probably second only to that French Bakery place in SM in that regard. The hotel is pretty cheap, especially if you fly in on Cebu Pacific, something like 1800 but breakfast is extra. The breakfast is kind of so-so, the gym has ancient falling apart equipment and the pool is humorously small. The best thing about here is it's walking distance to a lot of the well-known girlie bars. Also there are a number of eating places and money exchanges.

Sometimes I stay at the Waterfront Lahug. These days it's about the same price as the Marriott. The pool here is really good and girls love to swim here. The gym is good but they charge extra even for guests, which really ticks me off. I did see signs of neglect when I stayed here in August, things like holes in the sheets and something creepy about the towels. From here you can walk to Sunflower Disco if you don't mind stretching your legs a bit. And across the road from the hotel entrance there's a complex of restaurants and bars (called the Village or something like that?). These can be good places to pick up freelancers.

Hopefully they'll soon reopen Cebu Plaza Hotel and maybe even the hotel that's been sitting empty next to SM Mall all these years. That could help ease some of the upward pressure on hotel rates.

Thanks for the hotel reviews.

Mariott is a bit much for me. Waterfront....he,he, that brings back memories. I flirted with a girl working one of the counters in Robinsons mall. I slipped her my card and she texted me within 30 minutes. I met when she finished work and took her to the poolside bar at Waterfront. She loved it. I should have tried to get her back to my room then, but we ended up at Sunflower. Lots of hugging and some kissing, but she didn't stay with me the night. I had a flight the next day. If I only had one more day....

I've heard the empty hotel near SM was never opened, and never will. Something about problems with the foundation. I think that area is reclaimed land.

Let me add a bit to Mahku's list.

The main entrance to Cebu Midtown Hotel is on Ramos Ave. A short walk from there is Kan Iraq (unfortunate name) on the right. This place is a bit of a dump, but would be good for budget travlers. Some of the rooms are huge. There was some really sweet cuties working the lobby when I was there about a year ago.

Right across from there is a place called Holiday something. Maybe just Holiday. Last time I was in Cebu the workers were on strike so I ended up at Midtown. It's probably about 2000 pesos. They have something on the roof there, maybe a restaurant. Never stayed there, but it looks nice.

Further down Ramos, going toward downtown is a place called Diplomat. I was shown a very nice room and quoted a great price (about 1000) but there were no vacancies at that time. I've sent them and email hoping to get a room there later this month.

Continuing down Ramos, before it turns in Juanquerra (sorry for spelling) are some pensions. At the lobby, there is a sign that says no guests, so I didn't consider staying there. I wonder how seriously this is enforced?

I'm currently in Manila, but will be in Cebu around Wed or Thu for two days. Any of you mutts want to meet up? PM me, if interested.

I liked the Marriott so much, it's the only place in Cebu City that I've stayed at. I think I've racked up 70 nights there in the past. It was $56USD/Night, guess it's gone up, but if I were to spend a couple of nights in Cebu, I'd try to pony up the money. After all, I could cut back in Davao and stay at the Apo View for P1,100 I think and Cherry Blossoms in Malate at P1,500 when in MNL.

I loved the breakfast at the Marriott and would check their buffet late afternoon to see if I was going to eat dinner there; if 3 or more of the entrees were interesting, that's where I'd eat. Also, it's a "friendly" place.

X Man, I think I know one of those girls at the Kan Iraq. In certain chat rooms she goes by the nick 'Yummy.'

Your story about the Robinsons counter girl brings up a good point. The last night of a trip isn't for wining and dining and other kinds of foreplay. It's the time to get down to it or move on, especially if an early departure is looming. Now if you're setting her up for a subsequent visit that's another matter...

Holiday Plaza is the name of the place across from there. I've never stayed there either but I've heard good things from people who have. I think the restaurant on top is more like your basic lechon manok place. The girls would probably like it.

Another quirk of the Midtown is the fact that it's popular with church groups. I remember certain Sundays escorting my catch of the previous night downstairs and these matrons in their Sunday best would be crinkling their noses when the elevator doors opened.

Found this report today on the living-in-cebu forum:

"I took a buddy of mine down to Kabatingan (basketball court) last night, and it seemed as though most of the girls were acting very high. My buddy and I observed that many of the girls had needle marks on their arms.

My guess is that the girls are no longer doing alcohol and shabu, but are now doing some other drug or some other form of shabu. Being such a poor area I would also guess that they are also sharing needles. The situation was so scary that my buddy and I just left. I just wanted to warn everyone about our observation. Where there is needle use, there are also highers incidences of AIDS, hepatitus, and many other problems. I have taken many buddys to kabatingan before to give them the "tour" , but I will probably not go again, needle use is just too scary for me."

Sounds really bad, and a little bit sad too since Junquerra offers the cheapest girls in Cebu.

Can anyone confirm the impression given in this report?

Mahku, I don't know what a "basic lechon manok place" is, But I have dined many times at the Holiday Plaza rooftop restaurant. Their food is excellent. I recommend it highly and go there whenever I am in Cebu.

Gentlemen:

Somebody mentioned a basketball court which is close to the notorious outdoor "meatmarket" near the fight, fuck or go for your gun area near Colon Street in Cebu.

My advice is to avoid like the plague (which you may surely cach) the trollops you find there.

Many of them are the oft times fatal "Ahkyat Barko" which literally translated means "Ship hopper" the lowest form of prostitute in the Phils.
Their MO (method of operation) is to have the Badjao boatmen take them out to whatever ship docks in the harbour and sneak aboard and boff all the sailors who are not able to go ashore or dont have papers to do so.

These girls have a high incidence of disease and especially aides and syphyllys to my knowledge as they usually they get it from the seamen from all parts of the world, africa, asia etc.

These bitches are also hand in glove with pirates and smugglers and dope dealers. They often scout out the ships that will be passing through the malacca straits or thru the "backdoor" area of Sulu Tawi Tawi see what cargo they carrry etc and sell the info to the bad guys or are put aboard by the bad guys anyhow for intel. They would think nothing of ripping you off and taking your wallet etc they work with pimps(Bugao) and pimps are always dangerous.

They are prolific in Cebu to my knowledge and a few operate in CDO city and of course they are prevalent in Davao. Lots of disease with these girls....avoid them cheap pussy means aides.

[QUOTE=Dog Face]Has anyone stayed at the Cebumidtown and do they guest.

Thanks[/QUOTE]

Yes and yes.

You're welcome

I arrived in Cebu on Monday, December 26th. I am staying at the Raja (old Garwood) on Fluente Circle. They really cleaned the place up. I stopped staying there a few years ago because it was getting run down.

A word of caution. I have a habbit of walking from Fluente Circle down to the bars on Mango Ave. I was appoached by a lot of Lady Boys plying their trade. It is a very dangerouls proposition to pick women off the street (sometimes you wind up with something other than a women). Beware

I suggest avoiding Cebu during the Holiday season. All the regular clubs on Mango Ave are terrible. Few women and, in many cases, more men than women in many of the bars. It seems most of the girls go home to the provinces for the holiday. I was told by a number of girs in the Lonestar that the bars will be closed from December 29th to January 2nd.

The Lonestar did have a number of girls, a lot of them told me they came from other clubs to work there. However, the management is very pushy with ladies drinks. The girls approach you in teams, then the waitress shows up about one minute later. Its annoying.

I am not cheap and readily buy a girl a drink, I just don't like being goaded into buying drinks.

The only good spot I found was the Silver Dollar. It has always been one of my favorites. You can sit back and enjoy a beer. No pressure to buy. Met a girl named Sara who was very proficient in the sack.

Again, avoid Cebu during the Holidays, its dead as a door nail.

[QUOTE=Dog Face]Has anyone stayed at the Cebumidtown and do they guest.

Thanks[/QUOTE]Cebu Midtown do guest, but the in house massage service was a BIG disappointment. They will only do hand jobs and want 1000 Pesos for it. When I asked for everything, the girls told me the hotels has a strict policy against this and will do checks on the girls should they go all the way. The girls pleaded poverty and begged that I allow them to do a hand job, and they even turned down double or triple the money for sex with a condom. Be a little careful because I found the neighborhood around Cebu Midtown pretty scary at night. Take that Taxi.

it'd been nearly a year since i'd been to cebu (last year's sinulog), so i was looking to returning. a short christmas story:

i usually stay at the marriott (not terribly remarkable, but ok gym, decent location next to ayala mall, and more-or-less reasonable rates).

anyhow, thursday i head out with a local work contact to harem... didn't see anything particularly alluring, so we head over to sunflower, where we had a decent time drinking and dancing, but didn't get hooked-up (a little too busy drinking, i have to admit).

friday night i head over again, and by early am, am talking with a 22 year old from mindanao, but lives in alcoy. she's small, slim and firm - just the way i like them. i invite her and a couple of friends to breakfast, then convince her to come to the hotel with me.

she's very shy, and seemingly pretty nervous... turns out she's a virgin -- a 22 year old vrigin! at first i can't believe it, but it's true. dang, it's been more years than i can remember since i had one of them!

that night, the deed couldn't be completed (jeesus, couldn't even get it in, and she was in pain), but she was pretty receptive to other attentions. the next day, i started slowly, and when she was obviously completely up to speed, start in slowly. it takes a while, and it's not long before she's obviously enjoying it.

every time it gets better and better, to the point it doesn't take much to get her sopping wet and ready to go.

what a christmas present!

I just got back from 3 weeks in the Phils (4 days Boracay, rest Cebu).

While in Cebu, I stayed at the West Gorordio for 1680 pesos in an Executive. Large Room with balcony and bathroom has bathtub, which is a great plus. I was with my filipina GF, so not sure if girl friendly (probably ok, though). Breakfast included (can have it delivered).

Also, try the Mango Park Hotel. Standard room (1200) has two single beds you can push together, Deluxe (1400) has large bed (I think queen). Room not as large, but has pool on roof and breakfast also included. A little friendlier atmosphere. Take the 13c multicab to Ayala for 7 pesos. Also, a KTV bar walking distance, couldn't check out b/c I was with my girl.

I stayed at Dave's Strawhat Inn and Villa Camilla. Both were cheap. Villa Camilla was more expensive around 2500 pesos, had pool and right on beach.

Dave's was homier with nice rooms (smaller though), but a short walk off beach.

Billpsu mentions the Raja (not sure of spelling).

This place just opened Dec 15 and looks beautiful. The lobby is outstanding. Really nice spiral staircase going up all eight floors. I looked at the two cheapest rooms and wasn't particularly impressed. Cheaper ones (about 1900) have no window. The more expensive rooms might be really nice if they took the same care with the rooms as the took with the lobby.

Currently staying at Holiday plaza. 1900 includes buffet breakfast. I really hate the toilet paper dispenser....kind of like in a public toilet. Otherwise I'm happy with the place.

I'm using the Internet cafe in the mall. Good connections, good computer, but very cramped. Anyone have a Net cafe recommendation?

Walk out Holiday Plaza , turn left and walk down Ramos St in southerly direction towards down town direction , turn first bitumen road on right , its called Arlington Ponds , about 150mtrs down Ramos from Holiday. 100mtrs along Arlington and down at end of Arlington you will find McDonalds on your right , however turn left into Osmena Blvd , not right. 1 min walk down Osmena heading once again towards down town southerly , and building on left before hospital is an inconspicious building , enter and youll find an air con internet cafe with lots of space , 'luxury' chairs , run by koreans , including korean female students there from time to time. standard p30 per hour rate. not many people there during day , can be busy at night incl. girls but always enough computers , about 60 in all , at a guess. open 24hrs would you believe.

Check out any Cafe de France, half way decent food (Baked goods) and all of them have an Inet with decent machines. I used the one in Robinson Plaza, very cnvenient as there were a few wandering ladies hanging around eying up old foreigners, you could get on the inet, chat, have a girl met you at the cafe, size her up during a coffee and decide from there, cheaper too that Untopia, like P25 hr for a web cam

The inside rooms w/o windows appeals to me b/c they are usually quietr than ones facing th street

Also, I have a usa passport and visited th PI many times in th 90s on a 21 day arirval visa which ould be extended to 59 days and possibly beyond at th Immigration office in Cebu Is this still possible

I hear conflicting stories about this, one that to stay beyond th 2 days you have to obtain a 3 mth visa from PI consulate/embassy before travel

Anyone have any definitive info on this, much appreciated

A bar manager and her 26 “entertainers” were arrested by the Cebu City Police Office in a raid last Wed. night along Gen. Maxilom Ave. The joint team of ….raided Papillon Bar at 11:45 p.m. Police had received reports that the bar was used as a front for prostitution activities.
VCS Chief George Ylanan identified the manager as Jade S. Garcia, 40, of ….

I visited FH (formerly Firehouse) after one year. It's really gone downhill. There was only one lady I thought attractive. What a shame, it used to be such a fun place. Apparently early work release is 2700 but "includes the girl".

Silver Bullet ...as usual. There is a long bar and sometimes its hard to get a beer when you want it. Nothing especially attractive there, but the girls are usually playful.

Lone Star. Got there too early at 7:30 and despite warnings that I would be mobbed, I was ignored. Hey, that's been happening a lot lately! One lady kept eying me as she put on her makeup. I got up to leave at 7:45 and she shouts out, "No, don't leave! I want to fuck you!" Hmmm, high class place.

Viking the best place by far. One dancer showing off her shaved muff.

Exotica had one really cute girl with hair nearly down to her ass. Not particularly friendly though. I ended up with a really small skinny one, who had a nice slim waist despite having two kids. I paid her night off fee (2000 pesos). Her eyes would role back into her head as we did the deed...which we did three times. Really easy to talk to. She said I was her first barfine. (maybe that night?)

Two days later I texted her a New Year Greeting and she said her kid was in the hospital. Uh oh, here comes another sob story. Much to my surprise she thanked me for the earlier tip because it helped her out. Hey, maybe I was her first bar fine!

BIG MISTAKE: I confirmed ahead of time that at least two of the bars would be open on New Years eve. They were, but others were closed. The places that were open were only half staffed. Dimples closed at 11:30. The girl I planned to bar fine went to work according to her text. She was gone by the time I got there (Viking) at 9pm. I was suprised because Christmas in Manila was business as usual. NOTE: When in PI on New Year's eve, make sure you have a lady ahead of time.

The hotel is around 10 minutes by taxi from the main bar scene. No problem so far to have guests. Good location also to visit Ayala and SM. Both just five minutes. Furnitures are poor which is normal for most hotels. Downstairs is an internet cafe. Prices below 2k. It's worth a look.

I was in Cebu on December 28th and stayed at the Raja. It use to be "Park Place," then it was called the "Garfield." Its right on Osmena Circle. It has a big sigh that also says Casino Filipino. They had a promo until December 31st offering a Standard Room for 2000p. I believe their rates now would be about 500p more.

Do you mean that the Raja Hotel which was previously the Garwood Park Hotel and before that the Park Place?

Having stayed there when it was the Park Place, I now prefer the Marriott, but the last time I was there outside of this Raja you still have all the touts hanging, especially at night, asking if you want girls, if you are looking for action but you can now find women at Ayala mall. Some rooms are OK but you have to make sure you don’t get a road facing room.

Rajah is how they spell it on their pamphlet. Yea, used to be Garwood.

How much do you pay at Mariott? I went in and asked for a room rate. The lady doesn't say anything, but starts playing with her computer. I thought she was ignoring me (happens a lot lately). Finally something starts printing...and I start to feel impatient. Geeez Louise, just tell me how much. Well, this nice little form comes out, she tears it off and hands it too me. Lowest price was over $100. I just set it back down and walked out.

With the Marriott its always best to check the on-line price, and ask what the walk in rate they are offering, but they claim the on-line rate is their best price. I paid around $70 per night, also if you are with any airline’s [i]ff[/i] programs you can use this to be offered a good room rate. I should add this all depends on the time of the year, low season, high season, as is the case for most hotels world wide.

Exactly. If you check online right now, the lowest rate at Cebu Marriott is about USD $64. (I just happen to be looking, as I'm traveling there from Manila tomorrow.)

And as Juniour says, this goes pretty much for any hotel anywhere... I always book online.

I arrived 3 nights ago after spending 4 days in Makati. Short 45 minutes flight for 65 dollars on Cebu Pacific.

Shared a taxi from the airport with a nice Brittish gent I met on the plane. I was dropped of by a taxi girl who volunteered to bring us "nice ladies" to our room if we desired later. Took his number and told him we'd get back with him later.

When we arrived at the hotel I went upstairs to inspect the room as I had a bad experience in Makati. Sure enough the room had over 1000 ants crawling up and down the wall so I asked for a new room and was told they are full so I said thanks but no thanks, got another taxi and lucked into finding a place called Eddies less than a mile away and walking distance to the action.

1300 Pesos including breakfast and nice and clean too.

Later that night called the taxi and he brought 3 girls for my and my friend to chose from. We both picked one (1200 paid directly taxi driver plus 100 to the poor girl not picked) and off we go. Turned out to be a poor choise on both our parts as girls did not perform worth a darn. I guess that's what I should expect from a 19 year old just out to make a peso or 2. We kicked them out after about 2 hrs with no tip.
The next day my buddy and I go to the local mall where my friend meets and gets a dates with a local girl working at one of the shops. I get hit on by an obvious pro looking for some afternoon delight. I buy us lunch and end up back in the room. Paid her 500 for short time with promise to meet her later for the evening adventures.
Later my friend calls his new girl and asks if she has a friend so we can go on a double date that evening. Sure enough she does so we are set to meet them at 815 after she finishes work.

Well, we arrive at her work in the mall at 815 and they are waiting for us. Unfortunately her friend was really ugly so I wasn't interested at all but play along for my friend's benefit. We went out to eat at a place called Sidliner. I had the best grilled Tuna I have had in my entire life! Higly recommended.

After dinner we went to a local disco called Sunflower. Very modern and nice, and taxi driver should be able to take you there. I'm not into the girl I'm with but try to play along. About midnight I say I'm tired and want to go to bed. We taxi back to the hotel and I go to the room alone, wait 15 minutes and then I head out to find a cuttie.

As this was my 1st night in the bars i wanted to try as many as possible to get a feel for the costs. Price ranged from 1700 for bar fine and girl paid up front to Mamasan at Vikings and BG bar. Average looking IMO. Higher end placed 1500 b/f plus 2000 for the girl. Kind of expensive but I saw at least five 9s in there. I wish I was rich enough to take 3 of those hammers but I digress.

Ended up drinking until 3 am, drunk and tired I flagged a taxi and told him to bring me a girl. 1000 Pesos. No problem. 20 minutes later I had a cutie knocking at my door. Great attitide good BJ and Massage skills so I took her again the next day. She left for Mindanao or I might take her again.

3 more nights here in Cebu before we head to Angeles city.

I discovered you can get a ticket from manila with Hotel for 4 days 3 nights for less than 400 USD. Then pay extra 40 or so per day for the room if you want longer or get your own hotel and return when you want.

That's all for now.

Hi Cebu lovers,

I'm thinking of going there in the next three months and was wondering if there was any reason why it might be the wrong time to visit Cebu. I know Sinulog is the third week in January, so that won't be a problem but I was wondering about Lent. Do the Catholic Filipina girls ease off the boom boom during Lent?

Thanks so much.

What is the name of the hotel with ant so I or others can avoid it?

The hotel was Richmond Plaza. Not sure if all the rooms are like that. I have spoken to many people who have experienced insect problems in this counrty.

I highly recommend Eddies. 1300 Pesos, free internet access and free american style breakfast included.

HAH, interesting question there hoss, I would say that although church attendance might increase during lent/easter I've never heard of Filipina's rationing the golden gully during lent. This week is the Santo Nino festival so the place is crowded, just got back from Cebu this week hard to get a hotel.

Will be up there again in Jan 28 for a fight, Valentines day might be a good time, these girls get real romantic around that time. Candy and roses might do wonders!

I was there for 5 weeks 2004 over easter !
Had 17 girls in the 5 weeks , in one day I had 3 seprate girls !
So the only thing i remember about easter was at 5 am here music looked out the window and there was about 80 people following the priest in a presestion to the church !
So other than closed on good friday ! the girls seem to want so much more sex !
Dont forget the easter eggs And ask the girls if they woulkd like cream on them too !! LOL
I will be there again the end of march to end of april in cebu ! In my appartment in mactan Lapu Lapu !
But no church for me !! and outside for pick up after wards !

Just on another note ! a few times around 10 pm and midnight Lots a freelancers around main road from lapu lapu to cebu wharf area. Just on the side all along the road. This is the same road as sm city is on, so from sm city along the wharf area. Did not stop but slowly drove past some look good ! The ones near entrance to the super ferry terminal look like Bayouts( Guys)
but just travel in either direction, also no pimps as the they wear always by the ones, and the fence is there so the pimps cant jump out if you stop.
Yes i was tempted but was busy ! will check this out next trip!

What about Chinese New Year time guys?

I know Philippines wont celebrate this event, but just curious as to how much extra traffic would be expected from neighboring countries.

I'd imagine there is a considerable influx of horny guys from HK, Singapore and Malaysia which may make it difficult to get accomodation ?

Thanks

Hey Viking,

Nice report. Thank you for the heads up on the Richmond hotel (with the ant problems). I'm looking for a place for an upcoming trip at end of January, so will definitely avoid that place.

Do you have contact information / address for Eddies?

Contact info for that taxi driver that hooked you up? I don't expect any problems finding company, but always good to have a backup plan.

Cebu Steve,

Just do an internet search for eddies and you should find it no problem, or a link to it at least. I paid 1300 pesos per night but if you stay a week or more you should get a discount. Probably 10% or so if I had to guess.

As for the taxi driver, I have his number someplace but almost every single taxi I got into asked me if I want a girl, or said he knew where to find one when I asked.
Last night I was on the street corner by national book store waiting for a girl to meet me (non P4P) I had a guy offer to take me to a place where you could choose between 40-50 girls for between 700-1000 short time and 1500 long time. So bottom line it is soooo easy to find a girl, you'd be suprised. Don't pay more than 750 for short time though. I never took long time as I prefer to sleep alone.

Happy hunting

What % rate is men to women in Cebu ?

Also is it safe to travel with the religon problems in Phil![/QUOTE]


THe biggest "religious problem" I can see in the Philippines is that TV televangilist out of Manila who has hijacked a tv channel and broascasts his version of "the word" 24 hrs a day. Anybody got any kinda bugging equipment (CIA grade) that can bombard his broadcast from excerpts of "the playboy channel" or xxx rated Chinese movies?

Seriously, dont beleive all the international media hype about "religious" differences here. Cebu is probably the last place the guys in the funny hats will firebomb, I wouldn't go surfing in Sulu or sunbathe in Tawi tawi though.

As far as the ration of men to women I've always wondered at that hype. it might be a slight advantage in favor of the ladies but there are so many available willing women it makes it seem like there is a disportaionate number of men to women. Plenty of school girls in Cebu rom the provinces of Iloilo and Bohol going to CU and Western Visayas plus the other schools there...just get on a plane and go see or yourself, guaranteed you wont be disappointed.

Guys,

With some of the reports, including Vikings below about internet access at some of the hotels, I have a question about laptops.

Do you guys bring laptop computers with you or are you just using a hotel computer?

I'm asking because I'd like to have a laptop with me, but I'm concerned with security. I've only been to the Philippines once. Did not bring my computer and I think at the hotels where I stayed (all decent, midrange places) it would not have been safe.

If you do bring a laptop with you, what do you do to ensure it isn't stolen?

Thanks for any info,

CS

First, when youre not using your laptop, lock it down with some kind of security software, then it will be worthless if it is stolen, unless it is completely disassembled, which is beyond the realm of a petty thief.
Second, invest in a Kensington Lock. a wire cable that fits into a special slot that is on the back of almost every laptop, lock to a big piece of furniture.
See if the hotel can lock it in the safe if you are out for a long night.
Dont bring a fancy black leather case for it, if you have to go out in public with your laptop, carry it in a some kind of discreet shopping bag, and keep it close to your body.
In your room, you may hide it on the very top shelf, all the way back in the closet, (using the short stature of most Asians to your advantage) where it may escape a quick sweep of the room for valuables.
Dont leave anything computer-related sitting out. This will also be a tip-off in a quick sweep of the room.
Avoid letting the maid maintenance or guests know that you have a laptop.
Make a small investment in a old refurb laptop for travel that will "just get you by", minimize a possible loss, and dont put "your life's work" or valuable IDs, PIN#s on it unless you are completely convinced it is hidden and encrypted.
Look for options to avoid bringing a laptop altogether. Use internet cafes, they are dirt cheap and almost everywhere, more plentiful than here in the USA.
Get one of those USB storage devices that you can put on a keychain, put your bookmarks on it, docs, etc. learn how to use it, and just plug in at a internet cafe. (Dont forget and leave it there for chrissakes!)
Use a webmail program like Yahoo. put your itinerary, reservations etc. on there. (REMEMBER TO LOG-OUT!!!)

I think I just got a brilliant idea!
Scan your passport and keep it in your Yahoo mail, then if you lost EVERYTHING, at least you can print that out for a replacement, maybe a scan of your credit cards with international "if stolen" contact numbers included.

Affix a business card to your electronics, with your cell number. Youd be surprised how many people forget their laptop at a security check at the airport, and least they can security can call you before your plane takes off.
On your "welcome" screen of some electronics where it may display the owners name, I also enter *REWARD IF FOUND*. Who knows, sometimes the person who stole it from you comes back and says they "found" it (Dont ask questions).I personally know a guy who bought his wallet back (minus the cash) but I think the IDs and such are the most valuable thing in any wallet. If you have no ID, you are NOTHING.
I assume you know tactics to avoid pickpockets and muggings, so I wont go into that.
The moral of the story here is that nothing is 100% secure. Just try to make yourself to be more trouble than its worth. Be a "hard target" and "keep it hard!" Cheers.

IMHO, Internet cafees are so common and so cheap (most less than 50 Pesos per hour) I don't think it is worth the hassle to bring a laptop.

On another note. Last night in Cebu last night and what a trip it was. I had my date at the top of the Mountain or "TOPS" as they call it with a nice local girl. Sang Kareokie (SP) for an hour and a half while eating dinner. We had the place to our selves so it was nice and romantic. Took a Motor bike ride down the hill to get a taxi as there are no taxis way up there. Kind of fun the 3 of us on a motorbike. Anyways, once in town, we get a taxi and I drop off the girl at her house. She is to sweet for anything more than a kiss (shame as she is georgeous) and I want some action so back to the hotel I go. I get there and call a few girls I had seen before but got no answer. Getting frustrated and a little buzzed from the scotch I was drinking, I head down stairs to find a taxi to pussyville. I tell taxi driver "take me to girls" he smiles and in less than 8 minutes we pull into this dark alley. Kind of weird but I kid you not, all of a sudden at least 30 girls come running towards the taxi and park their cute butts about 10 feet in front of the car in the head lights for me to chose. I tell taxi driver I want 2 girls, no problem he says. I pick one with a nice rack and another that has a nice smile and killer body and back to the hotel we go. Total damage 1500 pesos for 3 hours. Plus 100 for taxi.

Back in the hotel the girls are up for the deed and they work the root for quite a while, only disappointment is the smaller girl, as much as she tried just could not take Vikings junior in the old coochie. Not a problem as big boobs immediately mounts up when smaller girl dismounts. Didn't even have to change the condom. Small girl licks the rocks while boobs ride away into sunset.

I shoot my load and am feeling no pain at this point so when the girls say it is time to go, I say, I come with. Probably not the best idea from a security point of view and I don't think I'd do it again, but I ended up going back to that street and buying the beer for about 3 guys and 4 girls. I wound up taking two different girls back to the room that night and awoke with one of them in my arms in the morning. One hell of a night my friends. As I said, not the safest but sure was fun.

Now I'm back to Makati for a night then Angeles tomorrow and Thailand in 3 days. I can't wait.

Gents,

Currently sitting in Bkk where due to th temporary prosperity of th country getting girls is becoming almost as expensive as in th USA.

last time I was in Cebu was 97-98, when th Peso was 33/US$.

I've been reading your posts avidly and it seems it's easier to find action in Cebu now than it was when last i was there and th prices haven't changed either!!!

So th only thing left for me to decide is a hotel, which I've narrowed down to three, thanks to th input from your many informative posts:

Castle Peak, which looks nice at least from th website pix,.

Raja (sp?), which has a super location (I like being on th circle and near th nursing/med tech schools near Doctors Hospital),

And Edddie's, which I see mentioned and recommended here frequently.

Questions are: are all three mentioned girl friendly, do they all have full service cable/sat tv, and where exactly is Eddies?

Thanks again to al of you for taking th time to offer your suggestions, and if any of you want to meet up for a beer pm me. I should be there shortly after Chinese new yr

Cheers all!

Anyone know if th American Express office in th Ayala Mall is still there?

This used to be th best/fastest place to cash Amex t-cheques

thx all

Guys,

Thanks for the responses to laptop question. I'll be making my second trip to the Philippines in a few days. Last time I left my laptop home due to security concerns, and will do the same again, just not worth the hassle.

I asked because while the internet cafes are great to check ISG, yahoo mail, news, etc., I will not access any of my personal accounts (bank, cc) from internet cafes (also for security concerns).

CS

I'm thinking of staying at Eddies due to some comments in the forum. Seems like a decent enough place, good location and rate.

To all who've stayed here - any problems bringing girls back? Having a girl stay the night? I ask about this because looks like it's fine from some previous postings, but I've seen comments that the hotel is not girl friendly on other sites. I also read in a guide book (I think lonely planet) that this hotel does not allow "visitors". Need to be sure on this one. Is Eddies girl friendly or not, or hit or miss?

Do they have safes in each room? I tend to get more cash from the ATM than I need immediately to avoid excess ATM fees. Prefer to keep the extra in a room safe.

Thanks for the very helpful info. If anyone will be in Cebu starting January 28 to Feb 5 let me know. I will post on my experiences from this trip.

CS

CS,

I've booked into Eddies, from 26th Jan - intially for 3 nights to check it out.
I assume since guys have recommended here in ISG forum then it is girl friendly.

They are pretty hopeless answering emails, and I had to ring them to confirm my email booking.

Looks like TXH1138, CS and I'll all be there around the same time, so love to catch up for a beer.

No problem with ladies at Eddy's.

However, I had a very unsatisfactory stay there last month. Nothing but problems with the toilet working, which no one fixed, to lousy food.

There was no in room safe.

Are you flying Cebu Pacific? The Cebu Midtown gives a special rate if you are flying on Cebu Pacific.

CS[/QUOTE]

There have been quite a few hotel info posts lately. I've been meaning make some updates since my last trip, but haven't had the time. Let me make some quick comments in lieu of a more comprehensive post (which may never materialize).

Midtown is a good choice because it's on top of a mall, across the street from money changers, conv stores and fast food joints, around the corner from a really good Filipino restuarant inside the Kan Iraq hotel (which is a low budget option), and within walking distance of numerous bars, not to mention internet cafes and a large bookstore. Other hotels in the area are Holiday Plaza, which has rooster noise on one side (south side I think). The new remodeled Rajah is another option, but cheaper rooms might not have windows.

On the recommendation of a working girl I moved to Mango Hotel one night. Okay place but kind of a long walk to the bars and a long walk to Ayala... a long walk to anything. The money saved was not worth the inconvenience.

Someone else recommended a few places near Ayala Mall..Richmond Hotel I think. You'll have to scroll back to December to find the posts.

If you are on a budget (like i was on my 3rd week out of 4) Cebu Pension Plaza was "decent". If you're not familiar with Pension Houses, it's like a cheap hotel/apartment. No meals, no view, and nothing special but we only paid php900 per night. It was an extra php100 for my wife to stay there. I don't know how girl friendly they are but I wouldn't imagine it's a big deal.

Midtown hotel was pretty nice and very reasonable, I think I paid php 2100, but it can be hard to get a room sometimes. They fill up pretty quick. It's also a great location, thunderdome is about 3 buildings down as well as a couple others that I forget the names of. I didn't stay there this last time cause they didn't have any rooms available.

Holiday Plaza was ok and I paid php 1900. They didn't have a pool, and the bar at the top was closed for renovation but they had a good breakfast. It's also directly across the street from Thunderdome.

Thunderdome had some absolutely gorgeous women in there. Actually I didn't see one girl that I would say no to. But then again, I was only there for a few minutes to have a beer before off to meet up with my wife. If I had the time, I could have spent alot of money on those little sweeties! Complete VIP treatment as well, as soon as I walked in the door, and I was not bombarded by the girls either. They just stared and smiled.

I am just wondering what are some of the areas to avoid in CEBU city, in terms of safety? I have been to CEBU once years ago, I stayed at the CEBU PLAZA HOTEL, that is no longer in existence. I don't remember any problems at that time, I didn't really do much looking around considering that I was there for a conference.

Has anybody ever hired a private car wth driver? Can you recommend any companies that can do this?

Let me add in response to several reports here that if you pay more than 500 pesos for short tim4e for a girl from Jonquerra "basketball courts" area you are being ripped off.

Has anybody ever hired a private car wth driver? Can you recommend any companies that can do this?[/QUOTE]


Had a driver once and never again ! always late always over booked himself ! now i just get a good taxi driver ! 1/ he is cheaper, 2/ they know more about what we want .

Just keep away from colon street markets. unless your with a few filino guys, not worth the hassel and problems the girls are the bottom of the barrel !

Being sent to Cebu City early February for work. They are putting me up in the Marriott. Is that Hotel girl friendly, anyone have any advise on this hotel that may be helpful?

Girl friendly, nice place, my favorite in Cebu. You can drink the tap water w/no problems, great food, great staff. The lobby is set up like it has 11 or so "living rooms", used to hang out there and watch the goings on. Try for a room ending in 08, i.e., 1008 (my old room). They are a little larger and are at the back, overlooking Ayala Mall and the Park. Since you are a long term guest, try for some freebies like free access to the Executive Lounge (join Marriott Rewards), where you can have great snacks, drinks, and entertain privately. Good Luck!

Thanks Harvey!

By the way I should mention how much I appreciate all the info I've received. I promise on my return to add any all advise I can offer from my trip. In addition I'll add a few pics, and dirty details for no other reason than to return the favor.

[QUOTE=Rockeg99]Being sent to Cebu City early February for work. They are putting me up in the Marriott. Is that Hotel girl friendly, anyone have any advise on this hotel that may be helpful?[/QUOTE]

[b]Rockeg99[/b]

I second everything that Harvey Wb has said about the Marriott; but please remember when you are in the Philippines [b][u]most hotels are girl friendly[/u][/b]

The other things I would like to add is that in the [url=www.marriott.com/property/propertypage/CEBPH] Marriott[/url] has internet access, if you are staying for more than three days its cheaper to select the weekly tariff than the daily rate. Across the road of the hotel you can find ATMs from Citi Bank and HSBC. From the back rooms you can see the [url=www.waterfronthotels.net/cebuindex.html] Waterfront Hotel[/url], it’s a short walk about ten minutes away worth going there for a look around even if you are not a gambler like myself, there are always a few strays hanging around making eye contact for a big time player.

Just adding to the debate on whether to bring a laptop when travelling, I would say yes, yes, yes! I use mine for a variety of reasons, writing up posts editing the photos, [url=www.Skype.com] Skype[/url] which I now have Skype credits and can call up any landline and mobile world wide which is far cheaper than most hotels, but also complements having a cell phone – which you must have to play. Plus, I use mine to watch DVDs and I have my music, which helps writing up posts the ladies also enjoy listing too, when I am creating content.

Sure you can do most of these things in an internet café, but why? I often
wonder how I ever managed without a computer in the past.

[b][u]Ace Of Spades[/u][/b]

Manila is safer than AC and Cebu is much safer than Manila providing you follow Porty’s advice and the general guidelines you will be OK. If someone approaches you and ask you to go somewhere to see the hottest pussy you have ever seen in your life I suggest you (a) ignore them (b) tell them to bring the girls to the hotel, if they say they cannot ask yourself why are you dealing with them. It’s best not to deal with any touts hanging about on the street trying to part you with your money.

On hiring a car I suggest you find a good taxi cab driver once you arrive, someone who uses discretion, in the times I have been in Cebu I have had some really great drivers one of the best I ever had is a guy who has now retired and he never overcharged me and anything I asked was never a problem, had his cellphone number and he fixed me up with whatever I needed. You don’t need a dedicated car and driver when a taxi is more than sufficient for your needs.

Just checked into Eddy's a couple of hours ago.

Maybe it's a bit premature to judge as I haven't seen the nearby nightlife there yet, but it does seem to be a rather noisy location and the room standard is pretty basic.

I'd have to say the inital impressions are not great and I've been looking around for something slightly better.

The mid-town or holiday plaza looks to be a better option for the sake of an extra few hundred pesos.

I'm still looking for info on Castle Peak Hotel. I'm booked at Castle Peak and Eddies Hotel in March and was wondering which is best and closest to the action. I've seen several posts on Eddies, but none on Castle Peak. Anyone know anything?

I never stayed there but I´ve seen the location. It´s on the same street as the Marriott but farther down the street towards Mandaue about half a mile or so. It´s farther from the action than other places but still just a short taxi ride.

Thanks guys! I'll be sure to contribute any and all information upon my return. After reading through the updates, I have one foot out the door!

Anyone have info on th current weekly/daily rate at th Marriot?

Cant seem to find that info on their website.

Thanks

OzAsianLover,

Let us know how the night life is (and the quality of the hotel) around Eddies. I'm booked there at the end of March and was wondering if it's worth the stay, or should I move on to some place different. Thanks for any info you can provide.

Thanks for the info Mahku. I still don't know which hotel I'm gonna stay at yet. Castle Peak seems cleaner...at least by the photos on their web site, but a little further from the action. Funny thing is, I haven't seen a post by anyone who has stayed at Castle Peak, so I'm kind of skeptical about staying there. The room rates are good and the place looks clean, but no one has any info on the joint. I'll figure it out soon enough I guess.

From a previous stay 2 years ago, it was clean. It's not the Marriott, but it does the job.

It didn't seem like there's much going on around that area so you'll definitely have to catch a cab to get to the action.

I looked into CP when I was at the Marriott, they do offer LT rates and have a "suite", but I don't know if they have inhouse room service. A Filipina Businesswoman I knew (now that's a story!) stayed there back in summer of 2000 and she liked it. Try asiatravel for rates, same for the Marriott.

CP is just around the corner from "Sea Food City" a seafood restaurant where you get a small shopping cart and pick out your dinner, like you were shopping at a supermarket, then have it cooked and brought to your table. It's a tourist place, so it's more $$$ than the "Lighthouse" on Mango, but I .
also liked it better. Good place to take a date, but you have to wade through "guitar salesmen" at the door.

If you go right (instead of left, as to get to SF City) from CP, you will wind up in Lahug; past Lahug, is "Tops", a nice lookout of the city. (On the way to Tops is "Mr A's", a nice open air restaurant, have your cabbie wait - have the kitchen send him some food.)

I miss Cebu, LOL, but I married an Ilocana and she knows all about "Her" ( my Cebuana GF), so it will be a while before I get back there, but I did have 75 nights there in 2000-2001.

Enjoy.

I have read the forum in detail, but can not seem to find an answer to this question. I need to book my hotel in Cebu within the next day.

For those of you who have stayed at the Holiday Plaza, or know where it is, could you please let me know if it is possible to walk from there to the Ayala Mall area? I will spend a few nights at the Sunflower Disco for sure (and that is in the same area as Ayala), so I want to try to stay somewhere not too far from there.

If not within walking distance, can someone please approximate the driving distance by taxi?

Thanks;

The Richmond Plaza Hotel or Marriott Hotel are closer by to Ayala then the Holiday Plaza. I would say it's possible to walk but I don't mind a bit longer walk for which I see other people take a cab, especially in the heat.

Hey Raz,
As far as I can tell, it is just over 2 kms. from HP to the Ayala center. Should be 30 minutes by foot and less than 10 minutes by taxi.

Does anyone know if you can buy Copenhagen chew in Cebu, I happen to be a low life nicotine addict. I'll be arriving 02/12 staying at the Marriott. PM me if any you fellow mongers will be around, I'll buy you a beer.

I should have passed this on some time ago but forgot. I had my wallet stolen by baggage handlers at the Mactan airport when I was leaving there last time. I stupidly left it in my suitcase thinking I wouldn't have to bother with it until I got home. Well, I didn't because someone else has it.

In all fairness I did make make a stopover in Hong Kong (just long enough to transfer baggage), and I guess someone handled my luggage at my home airport, but my moneys on someone snatched it at the Mactan airport. Heads up.

Thanks for the map WW. Mattrick, I think you're recollections are a little bit off. For Raspewtin

Checking my map, it is about 8-10 km from Osemena Circle (Holiday plaza and Midtown hotels) to Ayala. It is about the same to go from Osmena Circle to downtown. I've walked both routes round trip several times, but it is an exhausting walk, especially when it's hot and humid...which is usually. I lose three to four kilos every trip. The extra beer intake is more than compensated for by the walking, the sauna-like weather and, of course, the sexercise.

Other considerations if you like walking: I sometimes walk there and then taxi back, or vice versa. Try to avoid the taxi during rush hour and avoid the walking at midday.

I've attached a map with the route in red going from Osmena circle to Ayala. Turn left after the big Cristo church. I've also circled some of the hotels that have been mentioned on this site.

If you want the map at a larger size, pm me and give your email address.

I can't imagine what would possess someone to put their wallet in their check-in baggage.

My biggest error was forgetting to take my house key out of my baggage on the way back. My baggage was delayed and I had no way to get into my apartment. Well, there was a way. I learned how easy it could have been for someone to break in.

Another tip. Put your nastiest,dirtiest clothes on top. That slows down the customs officials and probably will slow down a thief as well.

I searched the forum, and may I assume that the bars for take-out do not open until 7:30 - 8 PM?

Are there any bars that open a little earlier? There must be something as you can find something in Manila at 5 PM and plenty in Angeles in the early afternoon

Thanks,

X Man:
Thanks for the reality check. That looks like about a 10-minute taxi ride, am I close? I will probably stick to cabs for most of my trips from Holiday Plaza to Ayala, because I would rather that the ladies detect the smell of cologne, and not that of a sweaty Canadian.

Looking for gyms on google right now, and from previous replies on this board, I recall that there are some good gyms in Ayala area. Can you re-confirm this for me?

I probably don't need a bigger scan of the map, but thanks for the offer. That will be the first thing that I shop for when I check into the hotel.

Thanks again;
Raz

10KM is too far, maybe 5 or 6. It is 12 KM from Mactan Airport to Marriott and the trip to Osmena is a lot shorter, both distance and timewise. I think it was a P35 cab trip in 2000 - 2001 and was very quick most times of the day, maybe 10 minutes, depending upon traffic. I can remember Cardinal Reyes to Mango Avenue and hooking a left at a karaoke bar that my friend said was a rip off, LOL, but that's my best recollection. I would probably not walk it, too far for me. It seemed longer from downtown, i.e. City Hall to Marriott than from Osmena.

Marriott has their own small Gym that a DR. friend, located in Ayala, used. Not my area of expertise though, LOL.

Most bar and brothel don't open until 8 pm and disco like sunflower and the
village is a waste of time before 11.00pm , you can find freelance in the mall
in the day time , I think sliver dollar open early but the quality of the girl is
not very good until after 9.00 pm .

fast eddie 48

Gyms I've used:

5th floor of the Midtown, near the Holiday Plaza. The equipment here was a bit old and not enough for the whole body. Last time I was there over a year ago they were improving it though. You may be able to bluff your way in here as they just write your name down and there's no computer check. Just say you're in room 1115 or something.

Marriott. Good gym but you'll have to pay if not staying there.

Waterfront Lahug. Also good but they even make you pay something if you're a guest at the hotel. That's one reason I don't stay here much.

Gyms I know of but haven't used:

Up the hill from the intersection that has Jollibee and the 'ripoff Karaoke' that Harvey Wb mentioned. It's on the second floor of an office building. I only walked in and looked at it but I remember the rate was reasonable and the equipment looked ok.

There's also a gym in Ayala which I don't know much about.

I think there is a gym on Ramos just past Holiday Plaza. Headed south it's on the left side. You can actually see people working out from the south facing rooms in the Holiday Plaza.

Well I've been here a week and this is first opportunity to sit down and write a bit of summary of what's been happening.

- First, the choice of internet cafes is endless. However if you want the privacy of your own little booth and no prying eyes while you type up your report, then NetXpress is the way to go.

It's on Juana Osmeta St, just down from the National bookshop on the left hand side. 24hrs a day.

The Korean place previously mentioned is not bad, but too open for my liking to type up field reports.

- Hotels: I tried Eddies but quickly moved to Holiday Plaza. At P1900 it's a great hotel - very girl friendly. After 8pm you'll find all sort of action just outside the door (if you're game enough). Across the road you'll find high price clubs with very nice girls if you want to pay that sort of price (P4000).

The hotel is also very quiet if you get a room towards to back with a view to the hills.

- Girls: Well they are everywhere, although I haven't had any luck in the malls. I'm not sure what technique you guys use there - but I wandered around aimlessly and got a few eye contacts but nothing really after that.

Every taxi driver has his "students".

One guy took me to a place called "Gate 3" - its about 15mins from Holiday Plaza in Banilad. Had a selection of around 30 girls - negotiate your way as usual, but I couldn't get it below p2000 for all night. The girl was gorgeous but a dud. Actually most of the girls I've chosen so far have been duds, either having period or just not into it.

- Nightclubs: Lone Star certainly has a good variety, but they are very pushy when it comes to ladies drinks. I think Viking has a better selection and the price is fixed at P1700.

This is my first trip to PI, and I would say it's a bit disappoiting (certainly Cebu anyway, I'm sure Manila or AC would be a different story).

Seems to me most girls have had at least 1 kid by the time they are 21,and by the time they are 25 then they are packing on the pounds.

I'm off to Dumanguete soon so hopefully will have something better to report from there.

[QUOTE=OzAsianLover]- Hotels: I tried Eddies but quickly moved to Holiday Plaza. At P1900 it's a great hotel - very girl friendly. After 8pm you'll find all sort of action just outside the door (if you're game enough). Across the road you'll find high price clubs with very nice girls if you want to pay that sort of price (P4000).

- Girls: Well they are everywhere, although I haven't had any luck in the malls. I'm not sure what technique you guys use there - but I wandered around aimlessly and got a few eye contacts but nothing really after that.

OAL:

I offer these comments with the caveat that I have not yet been to Cebu, but I will be there next week. However, from the research that I have done so far, Cebu seems like one of the best cities to meet lovely young (and non-Pro) girlfriends. The most successful approaches seem to include the following:

1. Join a chat site. Establish some liasons well in advance of your travels. This has worked for me in other Asian cities, and from all results thus far, appears to apply in Cebu as well.

2. Seize the moment. When you have that fleeting moment when you make eye contact with the object of your desire, walk up and introduce yourself. It is probably better that way, as compared to her approaching you, when you think about the cultural implications.

3. Make new friends with some resident ex-pats in Cebu, preferrably ones that are married or attached to Filipinas. Try to meet potential gf's though them. Filipinas are notorious match makers. Let them try and work their magic. I have yet to exercise this approach, but plan to try it while I am there.

Cheers!

Ouch! Cebu is a hot spot, but when I was mongering, I would say maybe 20% of the P4P girls were as much "fun" to be with as girls I got to know otherwise.

My last "monger" was in Cebu, a 19 YO from the "Firehouse". A friend took me there on a Thursday night, I was leaving Saturday AM to propose to my now wife. Over the last year, he had shown me all of the "hot spots", save the Firehouse, so I wanted just a quick visit. I dragged him away from the Casino, which wasn't hard as he was having a lousy night.

When we got there, the Firehouse was empty, we were the only 2 guys. I wanted to sit against the wall, he said "No way buddy, you dragged me here" and we sat at the bar. While the girls danced lethargically, this 19 YO beauty sat next to me, told her I was just a "tourist", not BFing anyone, but I would buy her a couple of LDs. Now my friend, rich old hand that he is, is tossing 500 and 100P notes onstage and the dancers were "cured". Meanwhile, 19 YO is telling me "that one, she has husband" (will split early on you), "she has 2 kids", etc. Oh the memories of how catty they can be, LOL. OK, 1/2 hour later and we leave.

Next night, I'm back, BF 19 YO. Get to Marriott, gives me a bath, massage and great experience, she was numero uno in customer service. Gave her the rest of my pesoes and that was my last monger/bachelor party.

There's more to this story, such never give your old cell phone to a GF/Fiance/Wife, even if you think you have erased all of the numbers, LOL.

Good luck in Dumaguette.

[QUOTE=Tooch]I searched the forum, and may I assume that the bars for take-out do not open until 7:30 - 8 PM?

Are there any bars that open a little earlier? There must be something as you can find something in Manila at 5 PM and plenty in Angeles in the early afternoon

Thanks,

Tooch[/QUOTE]Yes I been few times at Sylver Dollars. Open at 4pm. Beer at 35peso.

Yes, the Silver Dollar has a 4-9pm happy hour, however, the girls don't start rolling in until about 6:30 - 7:00pm.

[QUOTE=X Man]There have been quite a few hotel info posts lately. I've been meaning make some updates since my last trip, but haven't had the time. Let me make some quick comments in lieu of a more comprehensive post (which may never materialize).

Midtown is a good choice because it's on top of a mall, across the street from money changers, conv stores and fast food joints, around the corner from a really good Filipino restuarant inside the Kan Iraq hotel (which is a low budget option), and within walking distance of numerous bars, not to mention internet cafes and a large bookstore. Other hotels in the area are Holiday Plaza, which has rooster noise on one side (south side I think). The new remodeled Rajah is another option, but cheaper rooms might not have windows.

On the recommendation of a working girl I moved to Mango Hotel one night. Okay place but kind of a long walk to the bars and a long walk to Ayala... a long walk to anything. The money saved was not worth the inconvenience.

Someone else recommended a few places near Ayala Mall..Richmond Hotel I think. You'll have to scroll back to December to find the posts.[/QUOTE]There are 3 hotels I've had 1 month stays at while working here. I have an Apt now (8 month lease) . Mango was the cheapest but by far best value, although when I was there about 6 months ago they were going to raise the rates: I don't know how much. IF you care, what I HATE the most about the 2-3 star hotels in cebu (like mango) is they smell very bad of mildew.

Mango has tiles!!! I like the girls that work at the desk there. If you stay there, treat them with a lot of respect.

As far as getting around, don't walk anywhere for goodness sakes. Cebu is probably the cheapest for taxis of any place you'll go.

[QUOTE=OzAsianLover]Well I've been here a week and this is first opportunity

One guy took me to a place called "Gate 3" - its about 15mins from Holiday Plaza in Banilad.

I think Viking has a better selection and the price is fixed at P1700.[/QUOTE]Guys, If you want more of a GF experience, go to a bar. At a brothel they are not as used to GF and they just get picked out of a line a f*cked. Treat the girls nice and they won't push drinks. If they do then tell either the girls or the waitress you'll move on because they're pushing drinks.

I know more girls than I'd like to admit at LS. Went in there for the FIRST time last night after spending 8 of the last 16 months in cebu.

Turned out 3 of the girls I'd known well from other places (especially one who's used to always win me over...truly a babe..) were now to be found at this place.

Wound up buying 3 ladies drinks and leaving alone (-: never bought 3 drinks for 3 people and I almost never go to bars and go home alone. Broke the mold last night. Fun time though. A lot of just cruising around meeting girls in the bars (it was Sunday) so next time I can whirl in and not have to spend the time to get to know and still bar fine someone quickly and have them already have a good impression of me.

Cheers.

Wanderlust is spot on about the ladies. I can't agree with him on the Mango though. It's a good hotel, but inconveniently located.

From Midtown you can walk less than five minutes to: bars, numerous restaurants, conv. stores (water), pirated DVDs, fruit sellers, laundry, shopping mall (in same building), coffee shop, Internet cafe,etc.

From Mango you'll need a taxi for these things. (Yes some of these services are provided by the hotel at twice the normal price.)

BTW, If anyone is going to Manila, I recommend you take a look at my Paco Park Oasis Hotel (ppoh) review, which includes photos of the rooms. You won't be disappointed.

[QUOTE=Fenniman]I'm going to Malapascua Island on the 13-17 March.

Pals,

I spent my usual four nights here before hitting Davao. I did not get to Silver Dollar this Trip but I was there often on my previous trips in November and August. This place opens at 4:00PM and when I was there had 5-7 girls by 5:30PM and 20-30 by 7:30PM. Happy Hour goes till 9:00PM. Chirs is a great guy and so is John, whom I have known for 13 years now. I prefer early evening here for several reasons, least of all cheap drinks. I do not smoke and very few smokers are around in the early evening. In fact very few customers and you get tons of attention from the girls. I have no touble picking a good spot at the bar and I get out with or without a girl in time to eat dinner at a nice restaurant and have fun.

I still stay at Crown Regency Hotel (former Metropolis Court Hotel). They are still doing extensive renovations and it is looking nice. Prices have risen by 50% though. Not sure it is worth it for a guy into mongering. The Wild Orchid is good and the guys can arrange girls from nearby Casas and you can meet women at night at the Carenderia in front of the Hotel. but it is a distance from everything.

I had a Dwarf with me this Trip. 4'9", 95# with large tits, lovely, flat belly and beauitful face. She lives on an Island nead MEPZ where she works. She was a great fuck and good blowjob but not certain if I will pursue this. I have my daughter's mother and my lovely 23 y/o in So China. Then, the beautiful "Beijing Doll" now in the UK has really complicated my Life. Did not expect to see her ever, let along spend nearly two weeks with her in December/January. The unexpected twists and turns in Life never cease to amaze me.

Dragon Slayer

I ran into Spamhogs yesterday while leaving O'Flanagan'. Heard someone yell" Dragon Slayer how are you?" He is ex US Special forces and ex US Law Enforcement in a major city. Nice guy. Also a martial arts champ.

Please no requests for contact info on the girl I was with last night or Beijing Doll. They would NOT appreciate it and if you saw either of them, they do not need any assistance meeting men. I have no idea where it will go with the lovely 22 y/o from last evening but I would like to find out. As to the chinese lady in the UK, she may be married but she does call me long distance by phone constantly and cried non stop when I departed, something I am not accustomed to (actually, I think some of these ladies, including my daughter's mother are happy to be rid of me).

See whoever is in town tonight at Henny's, O flanagan's or wherever. Spamhogs said he may drop by. A good guy to know.

DS, I'm not familiar with Wild Orchid. Please give us a location and review....preferably after you guys in Davao have recovered from your little party. Is it a hotel like in Angleles?

Having wasted endless hours with the online ladies...(at home) and having some success with them in PI, I came across this post. Lady is not especially attractive, but certainly had a different approach. Instead of the usual, "...serious...", "..don't play with me...", "likes cooking and housework..."

Just a quick question. Arriving 11 March to go to Malapascua diving.

Does anyone out there have the number of a girl who dives and would be available for a few days?

No luck on the web.

Pals,
In Davao with a broken dick. GE is living a life here most of us can only dream about. If he complains to me one more time about getting laid too often, I will scream.

Wild Orchid is a very upscale Massage Parlo on the second floor of the Crown Regency Hotel on V Rama Avenue. I thas 20-30 lovely, young ladies there each evening and around 12 in the afternoon. It was 24 hours but now is open from Noon to 04:00AM.

They offer discounts on afternoon massages of one hour. No one goes here for ONLY a massage. Extra service is P 1000 to 2000 depending on your negotiation skills. I usually pay P1500 and no haggling. I have had my best luck by just calling from my room and having them send a girl over or just having the Hotel Manager cal up requesting a girl for me. When this was done She was naked within 2 minutes of entering the room. I was deep inside her love box 2 minutes later. got a massage, another fuck and another fuck after over 3 hours. Paid P 2000 as I was a "satisfied customer". SHe never quoted a fee and was on call for me 24/7 after that.

Dragon Slayer

Well, I still don't know where it is.

Since you're posting on the Cebu thread I searched and found a Crown Regency in Lapu lapu. Rooms start at about $70. My map doesn't say V Rama Road, but roads in Cebu seem to have multiple names. V Rama...that sounds like BKK.

****correction

I went back to DS original post and he says former Metropolis court hotel. Searching for that I could find it. It's about 5 kilometers NW of the Cebu captal building.

They just want to make the Crowne regency name as they also opened in Davao late last year ! the name is called Crowne Regency Appartments.

I have a very close frienbd who works in sales there Her name is Genaveve . Just friend lovely girl pm if you want the phone number and then you can ask for sales and talk to her great girl ( Just friend has bf and child known her for 2 years go out with her group.

But as i say it will be nice but i am sure if you speak to her you have a good chance at getting a discounted rate cos of the renavations ! while they where still building the lapu lapu one they gave me 50% of normal room rate but every time i have a room that had never had guest in ! so great group of friends.

They have a good dinner place and also room service.

I did'nt liked the breakfast and switched after a while to golden peak hotel.

But breakfast was same level as grand hotel.

Staying at the best monger hotel in Cebu from tomorrow, not flash but ok.

The kiwilodge in Tudtud st in Mobolo. Ten mins walk to SM and plenty of taxis going past.

Wanted to bring my gf from Manila but she decided not to becos of threats from my ex wife. So im here alone.

News first

Pres. GMA has awarded Asean policital meetings to the cities of Cebu, Mandaue and lapulapu this coming December instead of Manila, So prob would avoid travelling to Cebu early december.

The old Cebu Plaza hotel is reopening as A Marco Polo. Metrobank inherited the property when the Cebu Plaza defaulted on the loan.

There is a large resort reopening on Mactan and another about to get under way which will be either managed by Hyatt, Hotel Intercon or Shererton.

The hotel behind the SM is finally dead as a Sherarton but SM management will try to get it reopened after they finish there asiamall project in Manila. They are looking for a new hotel chain to manage anmd operate the hotel.

(Personally I would love to see Hyatt in Cebu - heres wishing)

Asia Village is now closed and undergoing renovations. Wonder what willopen in its place.

Noticed a coupleof new hotels along Selenas Drive, Northwinds hotel and Crowne Gardens.

I'm staying at the Kiwi Lodge in Molbolo and they now have wifi in the restaurant/bar area and will supply guests with login code so that is a great inducement to stay there in the future and rooms are only 1k-1.2k per night.

BAR HOPPING:

First night went to Love City, SMB 60P and ladydrinks 300P, place is not very exciting and the girls dont smile. Next went to Lonestar and was greeted like a ole friend when i walked in. Barfines a girl who was prob a 7 on looks with other girls there but what a great attitude. She wanted me to barfine her again and she would bring another girl so we could both lick her puke out. My sort of girl but in a trip of reporting decided to try something new. Lonestar SMB 50P and Ladydrinks 135P.
Also checked out Blackhole where there was some party in progressed so didnt stay and went to the bar nextdoor where nobody was interested in getting to know me.
2nd night now. IT was raining quite heavy so ended up at Silver Dollar around 5.30PM. SMB 35P during happy hour and Ladydrinks 100P. During happy hour there really isnt much talent but got entertained by 3 GRO's on a 4-5 reicter scale. As they were only GRO's they only got paid 60P per day so instead of buying them lady drinks gave them 100P each. They really appreciated it as they never got paid on Tuesday night as it was really quiet (they said).

Went to hotel for a sleep and went to Sunflower disco around 11.30pm. I had my meal there and timed it badly as there was a Thurs nite ladies nite show around midnite. So no dance floor action at least for an hour which minimised my chances. Funny when I bought my GF here last time I got lots of looks from FLancers but this time by myself and no one is trying to hit on me. Decided to cut my losses and head to Mango Ave.

As I get to where the taxis wait outside this woman with another more sexy girl asks wether they can come to my hotel and give massage for 500p. I decline immediatly but she works on me. I think the younger girl has promise as i dont want 2 freelancers in my room at the same time with expensive electronics lying around everywhere, so give older woman who now claims she is mamasan 500p for supposed barfine. Take D back to room who warmed up a bit more once we got in the room. Once she gets her kit off she has a flawless and very beautiful body, The service was very nice but no kissing or BJ offered. When finished she asked for taximoney. I thought she meant pay her for her service so gave her 1000P. I think she was shocked as this one could of been almost a freebie. Dont know, something strange going on here.

She slept with me for 2 hours then went home. Her friend rang up (mamasan) and offered herself as a sex sandwich. hmmmm.

But Mamasan never showed up at the hotel.

Now D wants to meet me today but i want to check the bars out along Mango tonight. Guys Should I drill her again or look for some new bait?

Decisions to make. Last night tonight.

I was just speaking to the owner of Kiwi Lodge, and he told me to tell all my friends to book first if coming to Cebu, as in the next month all moderate cost accomodation is sold out.

Not sure if he also meant higher end accomodation.

Actually preferably a nice hotel near the beach that WILL allow you to take girls back no problem!

Thanks,

Asiafloyd, did he say why? I don't mean to question anyone's integrity, but isn't that what a hotelier WOULD tell you. I can't remember how many hotels I did a walk-in (checking prices) and was told that there was only one room left.

I was under the impression that March is low season. Does anyone know something I don't?

X-man,

I was assuming that a guy WOULD take taxis. I never walk. Not because of safety but because I'm always in such a damn hurry.

And taxis here are as cheap as any other place on earth. I mean what's one dollar to 1.5? Walking is great if you have some free time.

[QUOTE=Cebu Local]The girls at the massage parlor of Crown Regency Davao are not that great though,6-7 if your luckymostly 5-6 though.Does Mactan have a Wild orchid branch???[/QUOTE]

I'm glad someone else said that. I know people have made a big deal out of that message parlor in the past on here. For that reason I figured it MUST be a GREAT place. When I go with a girl from a bar it's always a GF experience.

At the current Crown Reg my first I lucked out. There were more unattractive girls than I've seen at other bars with the exception of silver dollar and bar that is behind Papion. Lot of chunky girls.

2nd time I was really surprised. It was sometime in the afternoon and I don't think there was 1 that was a 7. It's far out of the city, and I taxi way out there and after taking a hard look walked out.

The 3rd time I did get pretty lucky. There was a 7-8 who was new working there so wasn't hardened and it was more GF.

Actually, that girls something of a female monger, whatever that means, and I ended up getting together with her out of work and she was up for a fuck 24-7.

First, didn't see it here, but there were quite a few raids about a month ago. One of Mama Sans is on trial with punishment of "life in jail" or so my bar-girl girlfriend (I don't visit her in the bar) says.

More importantly, on 2 nights over the past 2 weeks the bars won't allow bar-fines! What are all the guys doing in there buying ladies drinks with no take outs! what a tease. I actually paid a bar-fine for a "new in town" girl from Bantayan (to go with her for the 2nd time) and she had to meet me at a parking lot 1 KM away. Funny as shit. Fealt like a drug deal. She told me that 2 guys in the bars people thought were cops....where indeed...These busts are happening from MPs from manila.

Other peice of news is a large-ish bar opened around the corner from viking. I asked the waitress if they have bar-fines, she said yes, and I bought a beer. 2 minutes later as I was checking out the scene she came back and said no bar-fines because of all the cops looking around to bust.

if you are here on vacation I feel sorry for you. The bar scene may not be an option. I'm going out tonight for first time in a week and I'll see.

Oh, and other small peice of news, the Federal State of Emergency seems to effect people I know here about as much as the weather forcast. No one ever follows the weather forcast and don't really give a flying fuck. The weather will do what it will do. The corrupt fucks in Manila will ruin peoples lives as they have since People Power 20 years ago.

Cheers

Wanderlust,

I did two bars fines from lonestar and black hole and felt no problems.

As i already mentioned, Asiatown has been closed and the prop of kiwilodge tells me it will be turned into another shopping mall. Leases were all cancelled.

Isn't there two huge shoppingmalls in Cebu already, I wonder if Cebu could handle another.

[

Well with the amount of people there it could handle another 5 !
I am not sure but i know its in the millions of people that live there and remember also you have 2 new 5 star hotels getting built ! Marco polo And the sherition. also Hilton opened only a year ago.
If things keep going Cenu might even surpase manila in size of hotels and people !

Wanderlust (report 1205) assumes everyone would take taxis...as they are cheap and apparently save him time.

At Midtown you take the elevator down and you are in the mall. Are you sure taxis are saving you time?

And thank you for pointing out how cheap taxis are. I wouldn't have known...

Wanderlust, thanks for the info about bar fines. Too bad. I was planning on a bar fine the first night, but maybe I should set up a date with someone instead.

Fortunately I have a few phone numbers: bar girls, former bar girls and online girls.

I'll be in Cebu area March 5-15, with a side trip to CDO.

Send me a pm with your email address or phone if anyone wants to meet up.

I think it depends on the bar as to the actual situation regarding bar fines.

2 weeks ago when I was there it seemed Viking was extra cautious and went to extraordinary lengths to make sure I wasn't an undercover cop. I was about to give up then I thought what are these places doing open if they aren't there to provide this service, and then I finally met the right person to talk to and things got discreetly arranged.

Whereas lonestar and others were very open in regard to bar fines and takeaways without any issues at all.

Hello,

Does anyone have the phone number for this hotel in Lapu Lapu? I found the contact info below, but the email didn't work, so now I'm worried that the info is out of date.

It has a rooftop pool, which looks interesting. Also, anyone have any recommendations for Mactan beach accomodations? I'd prefer under 2000 pesos, but might splurge for a few days if I have to.

I've seen the issue of (post Phil depression) PPD being discussed at this site, but I'm now experiencing (pre Phil delirium). This is when you stop making any attempt at getting laid with the home girls and just wait for the ecstasy that awaits.

hi,

just got back from cebu and manila and here is my report.

arrival: arrived on northwest air sunday night through nagoya and then manila, award ticket 60k miles thank you very much. my plan was to fly to manila for a day then fly to cebu on a ticket bought on cebu’s website. basically a monday to friday swing and back to manila for final night, a one week trip.

manila airport was not too bad but i landed at 11pm so maybe that was better. about 20 minutes out of immigration and customs. i noticed in comparison to bangkok airport they were a little more concerned about your length of stay and customs was not the one or two guys sitting around the green zone just watching you walk through.

getting out of there was a mad house. three hours before your flight leaves you should arrive at intl’, 1 and 1/2 for domestic.

got the taxi at the limo counter outside. go outside of arrivals and there is a little island right after you exit where you will find a booth. use this service on arrival. trust me…

on to the hotel where i stayed at, the kimberly. not bad, a bit pricey but not bad for the area and what you really get which is a pretty nice place. ask to see the room. you should want the superior with single big bed and partition. superiors should have partition and cooking facilities. got a partition on the way out and a standard single without cooking on the way in without partition. i paid 3080 all in per night for the superior double. includes breakky but was never up or around for that. gotta think it was ok as the place had a full service restaurant.

la café:

actually met up with someone in the airport and hung with him. my boy was coming from la (the city) so i was to meet up with him at the hotel. he was out when i arrived so on to la café with new friend. we played pool upstairs and we befriended a few girls. he got the much better of the situation and my girl was nothing to sneeze at but lagging with the action available in the pool area on that particular night. go back downstairs and lo and behold there is my boy with two cuties. we say what up and he ends up back at the hotel with the two and i end up with the girl from upstairs. she was so sweet but while banging it she started to funk up a bit, well, a lot. turned me off but (only one i encountered like this) i was nice to her anyway. let her spend the night and got ready for cebu in the morning. la café is good, not great but good. the girls are not too forthcoming and you had to step to what you wanted (generally) unless you go second rate. i felt i had better options elsewhere but it is convenient to my hotel and the las palmas where new friend was staying. not really my style but ok for a night out. upstairs does have the better girls but only marginally. they eventually have to come downstairs right? but you can catch them first upstairs!

robinson’s malate: got up and exchanged pleasantries with last night’s girl (gave her some money). out she went with cute little pic taken by me. went to robinson’s malate and explored. ate at the fucking huge food court and enjoyed some philippine food, which i actually liked. there is a popeye’s in there too. the stuff they copy they copy well although i think popeye’s is actually affiliated with the main thing. got looks in the mall and my boy and i chatted two girls up. not really that attractive but fun to try nonetheless. gave up on the prospect of them and headed to the airport. malate robinson’s can be a great pick up place. just did not have the time. you must be patient, fridays and saturdays after 5 or so is prime hunting time till close. all days and times probable though. try to be young and cute or older and cute and in shape and those who are on the game will be catch able. imo of course.

cebu pacific:

cebu flies nice a 320s and you will like these brand new planes. paid for tix online at 70 us all in round trip x manila. won a neck pillow in the game they play 39k feet in the sky. fell in love with the stewardess and got a pic of her. i just had to. nice and fun way to start the cebu leg. you can go to arrivals for taxi but ignore the guys who will stop you with the receipt book and continue on. must use the footbridge but since i was with my boy we just gave in and booked one for 375 pesos flat.

hotel:

got a taxi to the holiday plaza. left of kan iraq if facing away from said hotel and right of midtown again facing away from midtown. centrally located, nice brekky buffet (for that level of hotel). also several interning cuties there, one a stunner… 1900 for huge room with 2 beds and the only complaint is the tv is 13 inches. i wanted to ask about an upgrade on the tv but decided not to bother. i did order pizza hut and those fuckers charged me a 20 percent corkage fee. i wanted to take a cork and shove it up someone’s ass behind that one but i had a winner in bed and could not blow my “cork”. they eyeballed her well enough both delivery and concierge or whoever the hell he was. concierge walked in my room almost singing “corkage fee”. will walk to pizza hut next time and walk my shit right by them. was told to avoid the kan iraq and did not explore other options.

bars: i am not into bars for anything but gawk. will take occasional winner but not often at all. i don’t need a western backdrop to find some good pussy. the better mousetrap you build meaning the more off the beaten path you go, the finer less demanding girls you will end up with. however, did check into the thunderdome and volvo. they are clip joints to me and not at all worth the 4000 pesos the may ask. those girls smelled cheap all over me so i befriended the mamasaan at thunderdome. she is kool as hell and fine as hell for her age and i did get her cell number but she got no time from me because of better options. i was curious about her. they tried to charge me an entrance fee and then the waiters and i had looks for a minute but mama stepped right up and said to take it off and i had a new bill in seconds. she invited me to a wedding which i am sure some pussy was to follow but never made that engagement.

did the rounds at what i will call the black hole complex. five or so bars and the biggest one had some real bad looking girls, red outfits was it? at maybe the stand alone bar across from the others, black hole? bad meaning bad not bad meaning good. we were real late getting to the area, the bar with the stairs had closed and we did the others. the one with the girls in the black undies and nighties was the winner over there. please provide name if you remember. the other one with whitish cream nighties had two good lookers and the rest dogs. ok for one night out. did not pull anything from there.

silver dollar was nice. around the circle from robinson’s to the left as you walk out the main steps, go to the footbridge and it is just below the footbridge entrance as you cross one alley that may be full of bagged garbage and you have to cross no streets or even use the footbridge… fun in there and the girls were ok looking. found a couple of winners and makhu, i think jamaica is in there now and she is one thick fine ass filipina if we are talking same jamaica. jesus. my friend took her against his bullshit meter readings but his meter is well oiled and greased because she was a dud. i felt on her ass every oppty. i got though. damn she was fine in my opinion… a bit thick but cute as a button.


mall action:

none that i sampled but plenty of oppty. robinson’s is ok but you have to be real nonchalant. i saw the guys hanging at bo’s looking to cherry pick but i never saw them talking to anything exciting. they were not real exciting themselves. i got some real inviting stares but you can tell who is on the take. you can go the route of the makeup girls etc. but not much there that tempted me to embarrass myself. if there was a real winner in the mix then i damn sure would have stepped but no such girl was there. really young freelancers in the food court and they looked at me but looked as if they were trying to be extra discreet and that for me meant ****. was not up for philippine jail so i passed on that. i did not even stare at them too long. sm was great but i was with a girl already and also at ayala. never gave these a real chance but that is not really my mongering backdrop though opportunities definitely abound.

filipina heart:

had 35 numbers from there, manila and cebu were all i dealt with. put em on a memory stick on my keychain with pics and cell numbers and must have been one funny sight at the internet café. i pissed this guy off in the kan iraq net room. sorry dude but i was on vacay… this is where i met my lookers that wanted benefits. had a great time with these girls (only saw 4) but they were all winners and will hook up with three of them likely. the fourth has a kid and a lot of hang ups so i have to be just friends with her. we ate at various places and pal ed around but nothing coming with sex except one in manila but it was not traditional sex, that another story i will go into in a sec. the girls i met however were very nice and very well raised. hard to imagine how they survive on a daily basis there and stay so damn nice and fun to hang with. do not pressure them if you really like them. let them get comfy, lie up and down that you are not seeing anyone else there (and make sure you are discreet with that if you want to get serious or semi with a regular girl, small town big city…) and let them give it up. they will eventually but after two dates you need to start moving in, my opinion. did not have time for all that so made the initial meetings and set up plans for returns to cebu. they will start turning over and i will be reaping even better benefits than i did otherwise in p4p. make sure you do web cam on ym first to see what the hell you are getting. all were who said who they were but i was quite picky. let some down nicely and whittled it down to the 4 i hung with. the girl i met in manila on my last night i fell in love with. when i saw her pic she was fine and was a badass babe in person. this chick was a stunner and i really fell for her. we did everything but fuck because aunt flo was in town. she put my hand on her pussy and let me feel the pad. gave me the sob story but i think it was true and if it was then damn she has it rough. parents disowned her cause she would not marry rich australian (who she said close to raped her one night) and was on her own and everyone was trying to pimp her out including her dorm manager. she was fucking fine and i could see her trying to fend off this shit in real life. maybe she took me for a sucker. i was trying to spend money there and on my last night met up with her and she spent the night with me. all i got was a hand job but sucked on her perfect tits. tongue kissed her for an hour and she jerked me off. because of how we were lying i came on her face a little bit. she did not even flinch. the shit hit my arm and even i flinched but she kept going and damn that was a fine hand job. makes me wonder about her but i kind of believed everything she said because i offered her money three times to get some housing and out of that dorm and she refused. i forced 2k on her at reception and hope she was not gaming me cause that will be some great pussy on the second go round. truly stunningly beautiful. she cried on my shoulder for about 30 minutes and hugged me like i was her father. if she was gaming she is damn good.

junquerra:

ok so we did the sweet side of cebu and manila now lets get dirty…

there has been talk here about track marks on junquerra girls and cabbies saying they are dirty. someone also said nonsense. i say nonsense… you must have gotten a rotten apple which means you skipped pre negotiations and thorough inspections. horrible backdrop, gems in the mix if you are patient and firm.

on my first night my boy hooked up with jamaica in silver dollar and i do not take bullshit out of bars and that was what was left at the time so i walked the circle and hopped in a cab. asked the cabbie how much for all night from casa and he said 2k. i said nah, fuck that and he said maybe we can get it down to 1.5k. i said how bout you take me to junquerra and lets see what the fuck is goin on in there? haha he laughs and said ok lock your doors. oh shit, ok. so doors locked we saunter down to junquerra. it is off of a somewhat major street and the pimps line the entranceway like a colony of ants living in a pipe with a few too many members. once you get onto the side street the pimps swarm your car. i dealt with the youngest most intelligent and cleanly dressed looking one. that meant clean jeans and white t-shirt. bout all you gonna get out of those pimp’s dress codes. they parade the girls in sets and you pick out who you like. if you don’t like a particular one for some reason send her off and they will parade a new set. i took the advice of pay the pimp fee and settle up in the morning. 200 pesos is the pimp price (should be, i was a bit over at 500 now and 500 later longtime, girls might get jerked but i tipped). well the first girl was a 9 but her manager was not goin for that pay later shit so i ended up with a 6 or so but she was a cute little thing. lets call her a. a had a cute little body and a funny little personality about 19 years old. had fun with her and the sex was good. however i had her play pimp for my boy the next day and he did not specify what he wanted and she bought a stunner over who i was shocked he turned away. you see, my boy needs tits and ass in more abundance than most of us feel comfortable with. so the replacement was a knockout with huge boobs and sweet thick body but he fell asleep on her. my boy went to bangkok first thing when he woke up and i was now solo. so now a is with me at 6 in the morning in bed, big boobs knocks on my door, my friend has taken off for the airport. well come the fuck on in! i start harassing her immediately and she tried to wake up a to go home but a was dead to the world and big boobs sat on my spare bed. i was pissed at her trying to make my long time into medium time. well onto that spare bed i go and pulled my dick out which she played with while laughing her ass off. i set it up for five in the afternoon. i sent a home at 7am and big boobs came over at 5pm and i hit it like it a clogged ketchup bottle. body was fucking perfect she was thick but not fat at all, fully proportioned with some swollen ass c cups. very nice. give her an 8. texted her later and said i was gonna tell my friend how sweet her pussy was and she said go ahead and report back the results. smart ass… haha. had a back over that night and she told me that stunner liked me. this is the one that my boy turned down because she was, well, too fucking perfect. idiot… gave a taxi money and stunner was over in less than 15 minutes. fucked the shit out of her and she came twice, i came last, roll the grass… that was great... top ten in my life as far as looks go and top 20 in sex. ok top 15 in sex… haha she was perfect from head to toe, athletic build about 5’2” and some perfect b cup titties that just stood up as if being snagged on fishhooks, no silicone bullshit. she tried to cause commotion about payment back at junquerra but a straightened her ass out. you see a was now pimp and wanted me to continue my business and my fucking her as main girl. therefore she had to mitigate all misunderstandings. a is back over the next night. a then informs me as i play with her slight tummy that she is two months preggers by her pimp’s nephew who just broke up with stunner. couldn’t make this shit up if i tried, couldn’t if i tried… stunner corroborated this story later. i summarily dumped a because she was becoming a bit of a risk for certain reasons. also one tenet i follow in this game is to keep it movin…

junquerra is wrought with problems if you are not somewhat seasoned and polite, yet firm. you have these three nailed down along with some patience, junquerra can be a treasure trove… if you get a bit queasy of pimps and horrible surroundings for your pickings then this place is not for you…

street action:

street action all through osmena circle and surrounding outlet streets. picked up an absolute 9 in front of jollibee. you will find most freelancers in the national bookstore/jollibee area. again not much but i really lucked out. she had recently departed volvo and i had her from about 12am to 1 am thurs night. very nice again, flawless body. had her back over fri night but then the sob stories came and i tipped her well for very exceptional performance and cut her loose. another fine girl and from the lower end of the hooker food chain as far as venue but a winner overall. she got into it with the mama who i found out runs for the most part thunderdome and volvo and got fired or quit, bet it depends on whom you talk to over that. however thanks for firing her mama (i knew that 450 drink was worth it, sorry i couldn’t make the wedding) because i got her fine ass at cut rate prices off the street. that chick was a stallion at about 5’7” with as much ass and tits as you could ask for. 800 short time plus 100 peso tip for naked pics in various but tasteful positions. 1500 long time with sob story taken into consideration. street action is going to be harder to find but they are out there. i did notice an obviously **** girl and her friend, they held hands and tried to knock me down with them when passing but they eventually unlocked and i could tell that was a very discreet invitation to start negotiations but the roaches gotta be big in those philippine jails.

sunflower:

heard this place was the bee’s knees but not much there when we went on an off tuesday night. had a band with a fine lead singer do her version of the latest destiny child song but nothing happening there at 11pm on tuesday, never gave it a chance.

massage:

never tried but will only do traditional with giggly “oops” feels for my entertainment in those venues. that’s all that will float my boat with massages. same same ktv. a few around cebu city but never went into any. sing a song? never got the idea of karaoke. one filipina heart girl i met up with could blow acapella pretty damn well though.

eats:

i fucking lived at the jollibee. don’t touch the burgers, stick to the chicken and spaghetti. best fries besides mcdonalds and that depends on what day you talk to me…

iced tea is big out there for some reason.

ate at a place called the golden cowrie? near sunflower. went there with a filipina heart prospect. ribs to fucking die for. also had the fried pork shank (forget name) with mushroom soup and unlimited regular or garlic rice. nice place, one also in sm if not mistaken.

also ate at max’s in sm. had the chow mein and a spicy minced pork dish with rice and bottomless iced tea. recommended.

the barbecue alley is also very talked about by the filipinas but never sampled. did a walk through and everyone will be on you for your business. barbecue row is supposed to be known throughout the city of cebu for their fine street barbecue. in osmena circle almost 11 o’clock from robinson’s doorstep. look for the light bulbs at night…

thoughts:

i was shocked at the third worldness of the phils. was not ready for that. the men stare at you like you are from fucking mars or something and when i tried to say hi and smile, few were returned. only if they wanted to sell you something were they polite but i think they were faking it. maybe it was me and my shock with just how third world it is. dunno, did not come away with a good feeling from the men. the women made up for the lack of infrastructure. they were so much fun to hang with. the men in thailand will ignore you or actually be somewhat genuinely nice. not in the phils in my experience. you need to be on your p’s and q’s. different vacation altogether from thailand but same same. the things the girls lack in thailand you will find in the phils. the lack of infrastructure in the phils is made up for in thailand. close, but they fill gaps in the other so to speak. had a blast however and will be back.

Nominate this for "Report of Distinction"

ES

Men. I agree with Eaglestar this should be a nominated for a "Report of Distinction". I can attest. I'm the /Friend /"idiot" who accompanied Travelfox on this trip. Travelfox you are an asshole. ha ha. Thats for calling me an idiot.

Just to add. Guys who have never been to Manila. LA Cafe is everything positive that is reported on the ISG. I pulled two without a problem and had "BED OLYMPICS" gymnastics style with both of them. Great time. I will definitly make a return trip since I did not give it much of a chance on my first trip.

What can I say? The LOS was calling my name.

i nominate it too! in fact it's 4:15pm saturday, and the report motivated me to now head down to j.......only been once but i've living here 9 of the past 16 months. the one time i went, i don't know what was up but taxi took me to a street i'd seen before and there were no girls. i didn't know about side streets. i think it was too early maybe (about 4pm).

fyi: yes, most bars are very cautious right now about bar fines, but it's lightened up. sometimes it's as simple as the girl walks out seperate from you and you meet at a cab. i've only bar fined 2 girls in 3 weeks, but that was my experience 3 days ago.

cabs, it just seems like a non issue. i would assume anyone vacationing here wants to see some of the city. i you just want pussy and that's all go to angeles. there are clubs, places to eat, tops, and of course the high speed ferry to island paradises nearby all of which you need a ferry to get to.

actually, guys here aren't bad at all. if you're in an area that's more poor and they never interact with westerners, they might be actually feeling "subordinate" to you. for sure there is a "macho" attitude most of them try to keep up. in fact, woman out of college are better employees! guys tend to be more spoiled. the call centers are 90% woman. my company is about 85% female.

i can't count how many young guys i've met in all different locations that are college grads. they are all extremely respectfully of westerners.

you're not called "sir" for no reason. somehow westerners have a higher status. i also know a lot about this from the gm of my company. she's taught me a lot about how philippinos are shy with westerneers and may be too subordinate.

now the un-educated off the path girl, that can be different. they all know that western guys have their eyes out for pretty girls...but don't have any real interest in meeting a stranger guy. if they're not too shy the reason they will smile or pay attention is the possiblility that they might find a westerner boyfriend or simply because they are thrilled at the idea that a westerner (a rare species to some) would be interested in them. that's no always true, but often true. i live out of the city center, so i've been learning more about how people "look at me" since there are rarely non phils people in this area. my area is something of a mix of upper middle class and poor but not super poor.

you're spot on about 3rd world part. if you hang out in the right places in cebu it's pretty much like bangkok in terms of how wealthy it feels. but most of the city is very very poor.

damn good report.

Nice report Travel Fox. The fact is though that the Philippines is a third world country and remember that you were in one of its most developed cities after Manila. If you really want to get a good look at third world attributes, trying going way out in the country away from the vicinity of any big towns. That's when the third (or fourth) "worldness" of the place will really hit you. It's a lot like being out in the African bush country. No elecricity, no running water, no indoor plumbing, no real stores, no retaurants and no real hotels. The welcome you would receive from the men in these places however, is the antithesis of what you experienced in Cebu. The greetings would be warm and heartfelt as these places do not see many westerners and you would be an object of great curiosity.

I think the reason for the lousy attitude of males in Cebu is the obvious preference the girls have for western guys. We have everything they do not and they're reminded of it every day. It's not the same at all in the smaller towns where no one is used to westerners and there's no resentment.

:D

[QUOTE=Travel Fox] Found a couple of winners and Makhu, I think Jamaica is in there now and she is one thick fine ass filipina if we are talking same Jamaica. Jesus. My friend took her against his bullshit meter readings but his meter is well oiled and greased because she was a dud. I felt on her ass every oppty. I got though. Damn she was fine in my opinion… A bit thick but cute as a button.


[/QUOTE]

I have my doubts about her being the same girl. The girls change bars all the time but going from Viking to Silver Dollar would be considered a demotion. The other bars are bigger, have better dancing stages and most of all more well-paying customers. Also I don't remember her as being 'thick.' Thick isn't usually my type. However, it was back in November and I wasn't as wise about alcohol consumption as usual. There have been lots of months, miles and screwing around since then. I can't say I remember Jamaica that well.

Also there's a regular Silver Dollar girl whose name starts with J. She's outgoing and fun and I always enjoy with her even though I never take her out of the bar. I wouldn't exactly call her thick but not pencil thin either.

Hello mongers the spamhog is in the market for a new place to rent in cebu long term....I know, go look on this site or that site and see a realtor, been there done that no luck so any of the mongering public know of an expat with a place for rent or moving out of an apartment soon?

I was in cebu about 6 weeks in late 90s and looked EVERYWHERE for a decent liveable apt in a convenient location

The closest thing I found was th big highrise at th top of jones and to th right, don't know th name, and that was full and very expensive

Every place else was th typical filipino rathole

I'm wondering if there has been any new construction on a bi g scale a la BKK where there is a surplus of places at relatively klow prices

Any info appreciated

Thx

the are so many available, the landlords love to rent to foriegners as they can be ashored of the rent !
I am moving into a renavated 2 bedroom appartment with Garden and quite area of lapu lapu, only 5000 per month !
how did i find this well i have friend there who looked for me ! That is the best way ! or go there and i am sure you will find one in a week! Unfurnished !
but hey the prices for furniture is extremly chaep. New lounge 7000, queen bed 7000, fridge 8000, tv 16in 7000, i hp air cond anywhere from 10,000 to 20,000, Now if you chose second hand well the savings is cheaper! think about it you might even be able to sublet it to friends as i am doing this to fellow traverlers from australia. When say you get hotel for 1500 a night spend 30 nights thats nearly a years rent there ! i stay between 2 and 3 months a year so its a great saving and also on food too !

good luch , these are my ways everyone differs but i hope this will give you an insight!

I was looking for a serviced turnkey apt that I could get mth to mth, not long term thailand has many of threse but sadly due to th vast number of moron white men throwing money at thai chix tland has priced itself out of my budget anyway

Th last I was in cebu I couldnt find one of these kinds of apts and since I wont be taying there more than 2/3 mths/yr total its not worth it for me to get a regular unfurnished apt

Guess thats y th girls are so good in th pi, bc th quality of life is so bad there

Cheers mates

THX,

Doesn't this sound much better?

"Sadly due to the vast number of men who are morons because they throw too much money at thai chics."

The point being, morons come in many different shades of color, and you sound like a racist when you come out of the box with a post like your previous one. No flame intended.

The difference between the girls thai cebu ! my opinuion only !
In Cebu no matter if the girl is from bar or street or a friend ! they all want the same thing ! to find foriegner who will take them as a wife ! Thailand mainly want money !!
So the price of what you pay the girl does vary, because its up to you as a person ! Do you give money to any charioty at home ?
I have give 5000 peso to a family who's daughter worked in a shop that i use to go to, their home burnt down ! thay wanted to know if i wanted to date their daughter i said no the money was a gift toi help them on their new shanty !
So if a man wants to pay what ever let him, don't critise and blame him that you have to pay more ! How much would you pay in your country for that service of sex ? half an hour maybe $100 so whats wrong to give a girl $50 for a whole night ! really if the girl likes you in cebu, you will find that all she wants is to be with you, not after money, thai never found such a girl, always want money!!!!
This is from my experience, I am sure other guys have had the same.
treat them right and they will treat you right ! You might find that you will feel better inside and never give a thought about how much she cost you! Because you can affrord it other wise you would stay at home!

I didn't realize ther were so many bleeding heart types on this forum -: ))

Porty- you give as much as you want, but your attitude is th kind that has ruined thailand. By throwing too much money at th girls you raise their expectations and they then expect th same money from all dopey falang/longnose.

Yes its more expensive in my cuntry but when I'm in th pi I'm NOT in my cuntry, am I? should food /hotels etc be as expensive in th pi/tland too, even tho th labor cost is 5% of western cuntries?

In asia in general, generosity and kindness are not viewed as virtues as they are in western cuntries, they are viewed as weakness and stupidity. If you give too much you are laughed at as a sucker

No, I do not give money to ANY charities

And its not my job to fix th pi thailand or any other godforsaken cuntry its th job of th people who live there when I go to places I expect to pay for services/products at th going local rate, not at a bloated tourist rate

In tland there is vast double pricing, falangs paying often 10x what th thai pays-- you think thats ok too? they rationalize it by saying th falang has more money. Rich thais have 1000s of times more money than I, should they pay 1000s of times th rate? your thinking is deeply flawed. Try having a double pricing structure in a western cuntry, you would be sued or go to jail!

If it is, up 2 u, as th thais say, but I wont buy into that sucker game and if you do thats your problem

As to yellaman, what you say is a non sequitur

If I have said anything racist, it is directed toeward th white idiots who have ruined tland w their bloated currencies, esp th japs and eurotrash

I don't blame th filipinos/thais-- if some idiot threw money at me I would take it too

Anyway its your money, you spend it th way you want, and I'll spend my money th way I want.

THX,

Porty is right. It's not about having a bleeding heart my friend. It's about caring about the countries and people that we visit on our whoring trips. Can I turn a blind eye to those bare foot children with no teeth and dirty hands as they beg me for a handout? Not if I can afford it. Your cynicism is shared by few people on this board. I'd like to think the majority of us contribute something to those third world countries we ply our trade in, even if it's a few handouts. After all, that small handout might mean the difference between a family eating something, or starving.

Not sure if they need it still but I was in Cebu when the Leyte mudslide happened. I offered to go help with relief work but they told me it was impossible to get there. They said if I wanted to help, I should give: not money but food and clothes. I spent about 50$ at the Ayala Mall on water, ramen, unrefrigerated milk, sandals, tee shirts, etc. I can make that in an hour or two where I work now and like Yella said, it's a way to give back to the countries I like to visit. If you are in Cebu, go to an info desk or the mall office on the 3rd floor and ask if they need help.

There are lots of ways to help people in the countries you visit without "inflating the economy" or driving up prices for service rendered. Call me a bleeding heart but I'm having the time of my life in Asia and I have nor regrets about giving a little back.

After you do these small gestures i imagine that you feel so good inside ! I know that feeling !
I live my life with one rule !! What goes around comes around !
To say i am lucky is understatement ! So many good things happen in my trips! When i shop at the local markets and the little children beg , as i am the only foriegner there. I just give them fruit as that way i know they have something to eat !


Thx1138 !!!!
So you pay the same for food and hotels in thai/Pi as in your country ! hmm
As I said what goes around comes around !!
They must realise that you are tight ! I usally get 50% of hotel rate and food well I pay local rates ! because where i eat they know me and treat me ant one else !
I mean really where can you get a 5 star resort for $50 a night with breakfast inc in your country ! Here in australia your looking at $200 a night for the same !
For a 3 star hotel in mactan i have paid $15 a night with breakfast! when the normal rate is $60. The reason why was simple I did bring lamb skin car seat covers for the manager, who is now after 2 years one of my best friends and i am god father of his first child! So if i was to use your thinking, i am stupid for buying the gift ! even though i saved 35$ a night for 2 months !
If you feel you are always getting charged more than locals !! start to think why, go deeper than I am a foriegner ! Change your attitude and you might find a change in their's ! In thailand i always did get my friends to hire motor bikes etc for me so there are ways around the double standard ! which does occur here in australia too! Just ask any visiting USA sailor especially in the clubs and taix's and bars and take out food joints !
Open your mind and your wallet you will end up feeling better than you do NOW !

the lst 3 or so posters are either feminazi trolls or just plain fools

As the man said, there is none so blind as he who will not see

Youtry to rationalize taking advantage of these desperately poor girls situations by simply giving them more money for their pussy than I do

But you will not see the truth that you are particiapting in that flesh trade th same way that I am!

If you really cared about these girls, you would stay in your won cuntries and just send money or whatever, and not travel there to buy their flesh, and pay a few more baht/peso whatever and say to urselves, I am good man

U are hypocrites!

So as bounderby said so aptly in dickens 'hard times': you know what you know, and I know what I know'

And I'll let it rest at that

Cheers all

As probably the Oldest Cebu veteran here,Lets try to put this in perspective,I personally know several of the people Porty does business with.He is generous,But What he gives He gets back many times in return,He gives a Hotel manager Lambskin seat covers and in exchange,He pays a very good rate,About 70% off which he has recovered the lambskin cover many times over.That manager used to be one of my employees.His apartment he is paying the local rate,Because He is a generally Good guy,They helped him get local price for his place,About exploiting the girl and asking if he cared about her,He married her didnt he???I dont think you can judge a guy unless you know him.He is not a fool,If you see the deals he has been getting on furniture,rates on girls at the KTV s amd MP s,He is paying local rates.He married a Cebu girl,has a place in Cebu and has some fairly ok friends here.No he is defenitely not a fool here in Cebu.He is considered by many people here as a good guy

[QUOTE=Thx1138]I didn't realize ther were so many bleeding heart types on this forum -: ))

Porty- you give as much as you want, but your attitude is th kind that has ruined thailand. By throwing too much money at th girls you raise their expectations and they then expect th same money from all dopey falang/longnose.

Yes its more expensive in my cuntry but when I'm in th pi I'm NOT in my cuntry, am I? should food /hotels etc be as expensive in th pi/tland too, even tho th labor cost is 5% of western cuntries?

In asia in general, generosity and kindness are not viewed as virtues as they are in western cuntries, they are viewed as weakness and stupidity end of quote

. If you give too much you are laughed at as a sucker, As a regular visitor to China,I went there 7 times last year,I agree that generosity is seen as a sign of weakness and stupidity in China,But the Philippines puts a high premium on being "Gallante",It means being generous as compared to being "kuripot" or stingy.It is a percieved as being a positive virtue.But this is not to be mistaken for being "Tanga"or stupid.Lets put it in perspective Tanga is paying 2000 pesos for a 500 peso girl,"Galante" is getting that girl for 500 pesos and tipping her 500 pesos for great service and nothing if she is lousy in bed.I speak Tagalog and Cebuano and have lived in the PI for the last 15 years,So I kinda think I understand these people Cheers My 2 centavos worth opinion

If you have a nice place with a maid and cook, and if you have an extra room in your house, apt. or condo that I can lease for several months I would really appreciate it. I want to come to the Phillipines from the states for a nice change. I am a bachelor and like that Filipino women are beautiful, plentiful, and aim to please. I am a good sport, low key, no trouble, and financially secure.

I put this on another cebu based board so i thought i would share with you guys. Massages are not my favoured way but in Cebu when you want some daytime action before nightnite bars open here is a way of getting some boomboom for a relativaly small cost.

There are actually another two in Cebu city that im aware of. top of century hotel but when i went in 2005 there were only two girls, but the one i chose ended up becoming a friend and could of been a gf if it wasnt for a gf in Manila. I found out this trip that she is now in Hawaii. goodluck to her- she was a nice girl.The other massage is the Caesars Palace in Mobolo near SM supermall. I have never been there but when i stay at Kiwi lodge, it is only a ten minute walk from there. Maybe next trip.
I finally found the new finland after almost giving up. You will be on the opposite side of Guisano main, you walk past the talked about hallmark hotel. When you see hallmark you keep walking, you dont stop here as it is nowhere near here.

On the first street corner ahead you will see cebubank, keep walking, on the next street corner you will see security bank. cross over the street (guisano main side) to your right then proceed down the side street and its in a building on the right handside. you wont miss it as there is a finland sign flashing in the window.

I went upstairs, saw the girl with the famous number but instead chose number 23. her name is Jane. She gave a very nice rubdown but i had to initiate extras. she want 2000p but i played hardball and told her i only had 1500p. She accepted that like a good business woman would.

When her clothes came off she actually had a very nice body,

About finland massage,

I always tell the taxidriver, Lu Yum building.

They always get me there without problems.

This is continued from AC. Flew Cebu Air in one of their new Airbus planes. Great flight, very comfortable, good looking sexy attendants, and cheap too. Arrived in Cebu for my first time around 3pm picked up a cab and headed for Holiday Plaza. Now this hotel is well located smack in the center of most of the action. They have clean, spacious rooms and a great staff. Again excellent value.

This is friday so I'm expecting to catch some good #$%^y tonite. I'm especially interested in Junquerra, but that comes later. I decided to check out robinsons and immediately get looks and walkby's on the stroll over. I go back to the hotel after catching up on email and wait patiently for dark to spread its comforting vail over the city.

I head out and find my way to mango street and start the journey. I find the first set of bars pick one and walk up the steps and in the door. Once inside there is a strip show going on with 2 beautiful pinays gettin down. I order my drink and watch. They seem pleased to see me and smile widely while doing their show. I watch for a bit and then mamasan sees me and heads over asking if I want a girl, "no just lookin, thanks." Next show all 20 of the girls get on stage and start dancing and playin' to the beat. I get alot of attention from one in particular so after the show I tell mama to ask her over for a drink. She comes over and looks about an eight and a half to me. She orders a drink and next thing I know mama orders a drink and I'm not happy. We small talk,after mama takes off but I'm not into this place now and I hury and finish my drink and leave. I don't like to be ripped!

I walk out and head across the street. to the Blackhole bar, nothin there so I go next door to Bikini Bar. In here I find alot of westerners and some pretty attractive honeys. I get the usual gagle asking the same questions but I'm not moved. They seem to move in shifts, about the third shift of young ladys and one really seems genuinely interested in a conversation beyond the usual rant. We click she sits and talks. I don't buy her a drink but its all good with her. After a bit she has to go on stage to dance. She does a sexy,sensual dance and comes back and sits. I get her number and promise to call tomorrow. I'm tired so I head out jump in a cab and tell him to take to Junquerra.

The driver agrees but twice tries to take me other places when I won't cave in he says ok, lock your doors. We drive for about 10 minutes and turn down a street that looks normal but the minute we start down 2 or 3 guys jump on the car and guide us into the hood. The girls come out, maybe 20 or so, and I don't see nothin'. There's girls way too old, way too young, way too ugly and nothin' just right. I ask for another group but the pimp says that's it. I choose one and leave. Back at the hotel things turn badly in the form of an attitude so I kick her out and hit the sack...I'm tired...

What is the fastest most comfortable ferry service between Cebu and Tagbiliran?

Where other than the departure dock can tix be bought? In the Upper Jones/ Fuente Circle area of Cebu.

Thanks,

Cheers all

27 March. Arrived in Cebu from Korea after traveling and waiting on transportation for twelve hours. Flew Asiana into Manila and then on to Cebu for 545,000 won. Korean friend of mine is flying in straight to Cebu on Cebu Pacific for 300,000 won Tuesday night. I'll take that route next time.

About a forty minute ride later to Cebu Grande Hotel, I find there was nothing grand about the hotel at all. At 1400 Pesos a night, I was immediately disappointed by the trickle of water that hit me as I tried to rid myself of the days travel grime. Hell, it took me an extra twenty minutes to rinse off the super sudsy body wash I like so much, severly cutting down on my mongering time. The troop of ants march back and forth on my bathroom wall kinda takes away from the allure of the place as well. I'm definitely searching for new digs tomorrow. But not before I check out the Sunflower Disco to see what kinda freelancer action is out and about. More later!

Yella Man

So no shit, there I was at around midnight on a brand new day (28 March) in Cebu. Having tried the Sunflower Disco for some freelancer action and striking out because of any real strength in female numbers in the bar, I decided to go look around for some new digs. Paid a taxi on the meter around 50 Pesos drop me off at Midtown Hotel, also the home of Robinsons Mall. They wanted over 2000 pesos per night for a room, a little more than I wanted to pay so I blew outta there, crossed the street and walked a short distance when I saw a sign for the Holiday Plaza Hotel. As I was walking for the hotel, a young street walker approached me and offered to go with me to my room. She was lookin' fairly good (vision and judgement slightly blurred from too many Jack & Cokes) so I told her to wait for me while I checked on the hotel room rates. The rates were better for a standard room (1900 Pesos)so I booked one for me and one for a friend who is flying in on the 29th.

Back out the door and around the corner I start my negotiations with Dimples, as she liked to call herself, for my first night...er...morning of fun. She quickly started at 1000 Pesos. Hell, I was in a good mood and it was gonna be my first piece of Cebuano ass, so I agreed. I know from experience I could have gotten her down to 500-600 Pesos, but I was feeling charitable because I knew that 1000 Pesos wasn't gonna damage my finance's much.

Back at the hotel we shower, and I notice in between time that she had gone from an aggressively hunting and securing an evening meal ticket type "A" personality, into a fairly quiet, shy and laid back young lady. I was beginning to wonder if she was gonna be a dead fish. Not to worry. Things heated up fairly quick again once we were between the sheets, and the session turned out to be pretty good.........................................UNTIL...

She asked me if my cell phone had an alarm on it, and I told her yes. She asked me to set it for 7PM because she had classes to go to. I asked her what subject she was studying in college. She laughed and said...No, I'm in highschool. Needless to say, I didn't sleep well the rest of the morning after I quickly thumped her ass outta my room. I kept having these images of little brown skinned guys kickin' in my door and carting my dumb ass off to places we don't even want to dream about! I'll never, ever pickup another street walker without asking to look at her ID card. That was by far the worst situation I have ever place myself in by a long shot, and I'll be damned if I let it happen again. Yes, the pussy was great! Was it worth the stress it caused and is causing me now? Hell no! I might be leaving Cebu for Angeles earlier than expected. Damn! It's tough being a man!

Thanks so much for your contribution to the collection,The question has now become a permanent part of the collection.For more background on the collection,We usually discuss it on the China,Thailand and other boards where me and a couple of Senior Members collect hilarous questions.Best regards

Cebu Local: WHy is the KTV question hilarious? I've never been in one because I don't like karaoke, but it appears to me that some are simply sing-a-long places, but others have GROs. In Cebu there is Jerry's KTV on Mango and there's one right across from Ayala mall. Have you been inside either of these places?

Yella man: I thought you would be in Philippines at the end of April? Did your plans change or is this a long holiday or did I misunderstand your pm? I think I have your email written down somewhere....

As for your date with a hs girl, did you ask her about age? I've met quite a few twentyish ladies who had returned to hs to get their diploma. Well, better safe than sorry....

X

"She's beautiful. What is that girl's contact info"

I got this as a pm, but since I've posted numerous photos, of numerous women there was no way I had any idea what the git was referring to.

Mayday! Mayday! Cebu Local I PM'd you about staying at the Oxford Suites in Makarti on May 19,20,21 and June 5 and 6. BUT China Airlines F#@*ked up my tickets and i have to make slight changes. Now I need May 20 and 21 and June 5 at the Oxford Suites. I really appreciate your help Bro! Will you be in Cebu in early June? Also,can you PM the confirmation number as soon as you can. Thanks!

X-Man,

I'm in Cebu until the 1st of April. Then it's on to Angeles City in Pampanga until 6 April. I was supposed to link up with a few local posters but have been a tad busy the last 48 hours. And that HS girl? Well, I asked her her age before I tossed her outta my room and she said 18, but she didn't have the ID to back it up. Yup, it's better to be safe, than it is to be sorry. Anyway, send me a PM if anyones interested in drinks.

On another note, I moved from the Holiday Plaza to the Rajah Park. They are doing a promotional where you get one free massage during your stay with them. Also, breakfast (complimentary) is open from 6AM to 10AM...a little longer than most hotels. And it beats the Holiday plaza rate by about 150 Pesos. Rooms are great too. I'll Probably book here first next time I'm in town.

for those of you borderline ****s (-: ))) i highly recommend this well researched and comprehensive site:

[url]www. ageofconsent. com[/url]

however, to be absolutely safe, my lawyer recommends to me to avoid anyhting under 18 yo

some cuntries have made it a crime for nationals to travel abroad to have sex w a girl under th age of legal consent in that cuntry, ie, 18 for th good old puritan tight-assed usa. your cuntry may vary! tho to my knowledge practically no one has been prosecuted under these laws, but who needs that kind of trouble?

as i am no moralist, and personally consider girls to be ready very willing and highly able to have sex once they start menstruating (u cant argue w nature, can u? ), i would add that in cuntries such as pi, tland, etc, were many 18 yo girls look like they are 12 anyway, if you need to bottom feed you may have a problem. -: ))

is it really worth going th gary glitter route?

ask urself this: are you feeling lucky? well, are u--- punk? !

ha haa

Well, again you and I have different ideas about humor. With ferry services it is possible to drive from the northern tip of Luzon to the southern tip of Mindanao.

I don't remember the URL, but I remember someone doing this on motorcycles. It was a good story... Search a bit and you might find some answers, but there is no answer to exactyly how long it would take.

The next day I wake up and decide that I'm changing my plans and heading back to Manila the next day (sunday)in stead of monday. I go over to RM and change my ticket. At about 2pm I'm gettin' hungry and head over to Big Mao restaurant. Damn it's closed so I text the honey I met last night at the club and she tells me to call her, we meet about 3:30pm for lunch and all is good. I forgot how good she looked. We do some sightseeing and I decide I'll hook up with her tonite. Later that night at around 9pm I hear a knock on my door and she has brought her friend with her. Her friend is not as hot but but I say ok let's go.

We head out and do some bar hopping up and down mango. This girl has some fine ass friends who work in other clubs and I'm impressed! Anyway we decide to go to sunflower disco for some dancing. Now I'm a good dancer I know Salsa,Merengue, Bachata etc. So we tear the club up when they started spinnin' da hip hop...most guys brown or white, got no game when it comes to dance. Well about 2am we head back to the hotel(I send her friend home in a cab) and she gives me an excellent send-off, wakeup too. She never asked for any money but I gave her p500 and she seemed happy. Off to the airport and Manila for a night before I head back to Ilocos Sur.

Yes,I have done the drive myself using the Ferries to drive from Manila to Cebu.You do know the Philippines,It takes about 2 days,You can even take a bus from Cebu to Manila.Basically It involves driving down all the way to the tip of Luzon called Sorsogon,Take the Ferry to Samar island which is connected to Leyte Island by a bridge,Then hop over to Cebu by Ferry.Best regards

Went to Sunflower Disco Thursday night to see the talent there during ladies night. I already had a girl lined up to come to my room at 3AM when she got off work, so I wasn't really lookin' to pick anything up. But shit man, It would have been too easy! The place was crowded with girls showing all kinds of interest in meeting a foreigner. Definitely a place to go if your looking for some free-lance action.

Anyway, the girl who swung by my room this morning was named Janeth. 20 years old and working outta the Palladium for the last three months. I gave her my business card and told her to call me. She texted me immediately after I left the club and said she would drop by my room after she was finished working. She was a pretty good lay and GFE. She wanted to hang-out with me the rest of my time here, but I normally don't roll like that so I politely declined, gave her 500 pesos for cab fair and showed her the door. Nice girl though. I'll check-out Pump Disco tonight to see what they have to offer.

Yella Man

I would caution anyone that Thursday is the only good night because of the "Sexy Lady Contest." Been there on every other night by myself and I stuck out like a sore thumb.

Thursday's are great though, got a lot of offfers. You can also connect with some of the ladies in the contest who don't make the final cut. A lot of them are there for the prize money.

Well, my Korean Chingo and I never made it to Pump Disco. We decided to hit a club next to Black Hole before going to the disco. I think it was called the Viking. It was my chingos last night in the Philippines, and he stumbled on something he wanted to spend the evening with, so we never actually made it out to the disco. Because it was my last night in Cebu, and because I had an early check-out in the morning, I strayed away from my usual routine of giving the girls my number and waiting for them to call or text me after they finished work. Instead I selected two girls, bought them a few drinks, paid their bar-fines (1700 Pesos) and then headed for the hotel for some all out fucking and sucking. They were great! After a few sessions I gave them a tip and sent them on their way. I had to get some rest for my trip the following day to Manila and then Angeles City.

Cebu is a relaxing and fun city to hang around, with many opportunities at some real non-pro action with good quality educated Filipinas. I met one girl from Filipinaheart.com who is an IT student in her first year of college. Sweet girl. Too sweet, so instead of shagging her ass, I took her to dinner and made conversation with her for several hours. A really nice girl. I had contact from several other girls from the same site, but because I was already hooked-up with other girls during most of my stay, I had no time to meet them. I could imagine I would fuck myself silly if I retired and stayed here full time. Over all there was much more to do during the day in Cebu then in Angeles City, and there is a better selection of restaurants to choose from while dining. If I had two choose between the two, I would choose Cebu if staying for a week or longer, and Angeles City for stays shorter than five days. If you’re a player and like an assortment of girls to play with, Cebu is for you. If you’re only interested in bar girls, head to AC. You’ll get more than your fill of them in four days.

Yella Man

Thanks to those who nominated my trip report for distinction.

Yella man, nice job and exactly how I thought it would be with respect to Angeles (though I have never been to Angeles). I chose Cebu because of the opptys with the local women and the P4P scene sounded like it was up my alley. Not really a bar person and the freelance action, though not as robust as Pattaya, is very plentiful in Cebu indeed.

Nice report.

Hi CebuLocal,

Im planning to visit Cebu this coming June 2006
I would like to get some tips from you. In your opnion ...

1. Can you name at least 3 hotels that are good, clean and inexpensive in
the P1,200 to P1,500 price range in Cebu? and their address

2. Can you name at least 2 nice & clean massage places with SEXtra
service? and their address

3. Can you name at least 3 nice & clean bars, ktv or clubs where there are
pretty girls that are available for SEXtra? and address

4. What else and where else can you recommend to look for pretty clean
girls?

5. Where can you find 1st class girls that offer sex in Cebu? and address

May I also invite you for some drinks when I'm in Cebu? If so, pls let me
know your tel no. and ill contact you when in Cebu. I'm a Pinoy balikbayan
from the States. Thanks.

Not all of these places are brand new, but they were new for me...

Tina’s go go
This place is right next to Mercedes hotel. It has mostly Pinoy customers. There were a few cute girls, but most looked like mothers. I talked to the manager who says they are planning a big refurbishment. The owner is apparently the former owner of Black Hole.

Gecko’s
From Fuente Osmena circle head east on Maxilom, past the church and bar area and you’ll find Gecko’s on the corner. No dancers, but waitresses have sexy outfits and seem very friendly. I doubt if you can do take out, but I didn't ask. Ex pat owned. Good place for a drink before the 8pm openings of the go-go bars. I had a burrito to eat, but it wasn’t very good. First floor is a counter bar. Second floor has a pool table and dining tables.

Temptation go go
If you are on Maxilom, turn right on the same street (maybe D. Jakosalem) as Gecko’s and you will quickly see this new Go-go bar. It is very spacious and has some attractive women. I prefer Viking and Papillion, but this place has potential. See the picture.

Badgers
This is just past Gasiano Country mall. on M. Cenco, on the right side. This is a sports bar with a large TV. This is an excellent place to take a date. It is very well done, good food, good service. The second floor dining area has few customers during weeknights. One night when I was there, a group was practicing salsa dancing…including two that were really hot. The group struck me as middle class ladies, so mind your manners gentlemen.

And old:
The old Firehouse go go, now FH, certainly isn't as much fun as it used to be. But some of the girls are pretty nasty...they'll dance on the bar counter sometimes. Worth a visit to check the odd blue jean outfits.

Our place. This is a downtown bar/ restaurant. No ladies available. The pepper steak was great.

Unless you have tons of money, carry some small bills.

Most guys here have this "keep the change" mentality.

I once end up paying 1000 pesos for HJ when her asking price was just 500.

While staying at the Rajah Park Hotel and having dinner at the always open Abuhan Restaurant near the hotel, an older women approached us and asked me and my chingo if we needed women for the night. My chingo just arriving from Korea at the late hour of 3AM in the morning was kinda tired and in need of some sleep, but I couldn't pass up the opportunity to see what type of girls mamasan was talking about. I asked her how far a walk to the girls? She said, "Don't worry...I bring girls to you. Just wait at gas station there". My chingo and I walked to the gas station, bought a couple of beers and waited for mamasan to return.

Fifteen minutes later mamasan returns in a taxi with four other girls crammed in the back seat. They all look kinda young and my chingo and I don't see anything striking so we decline to pick a girl from mamasans line-up. Seeing that we aren't interested, mamasan tells us to wait because she has more girls. She jumps in her taxi and departs.

Another beer later, she returns with a second group of girls. My chingo see's something he likes so I ask mamasan the price. 1000 Pesos she says. Now I know I should bargain with her and get a better rate, but my chingo is tired and it's going on 5AM so I hand her 1000 Pesos. She say's, "What about you?" I tell her I don't see anything interesting. Once again she say's, "Wait, I have more girls", and jumps in her taxi and takes off.

A half a beer later she returns with yet another set of girls. I look through the window of the taxi, pick a cute one and pay mamasan the 1000 Pesos. Mamasan then asks me to pay the taxi fare. I gave her 50 Pesos towards the fare and she seemed ok with that.

Back at the Hotel with our new dates for the rest of the morning, we stop at the front desk to get our keys and sign the girls in. I like the signing in part because the hotel staff checks my new dates ID card. If it's ok with them, then she must be legal. Up the elevator we go!

In the room however, my girl acts like she has never had sex before and is very shy. I did get a nut, but it wasn't all that fun being with her. Maybe she was too young and just had a fake ID card drummed up some place by mamasan. No tip and out the door she goes because I needed to get some sleep.

Overall it was an interesting experience. I believe mamasan would have brought us girls all night by taxi had we asked her to do so. The girls are definately not pro's and need a lot of training. I, for one wouldn't do it over again, but it's an option for those of you who get in on a late flight and find yourselves without a bed warmer. Just hang around the Abuhan Restaurant and I'm sure mamasan will find you.

Yes, right next to Robinsons Mall. It stays open 24 hours and has some pretty good eats there.

I think you guys just might be talking about 2 different places. There is a eatery attached to the Kan-Iraq hotel. And theres another one on the same side of Ramos right pass the Volvo bar. Not sure of the name,but its in a building all by itself. Across from Raintree Mall.

Yella Man[/QUOTE]My first posting here on ISG :-)

I think it is not so important where this restaurant really is or which of the restaurants you're really talking about. At the corner Maxilom Ave (=Mango Ave) / Ramos there are in the night always several pimps and one or two mamasans asking tourists for girls. One of them might be the one that had asked the two guys in this restaurant. But it might have been ANY restaurant in this area too.

I think it is not so important weather you are sitting in the Abuhan restaurant or somewhere around in this area to get in contact with that mamasan. Near to this restaurant, at the corner Maxilom Ave / Ramos St there are all over the night some pimps and one or two mamasans, offering to the tourists some girls. One of these mamasans might have approached Yellow Man while he and his friend was sitting there in Abuhan restaurant, but this might have happened in ANY restaurant nearby too.

Yup, the Abuhan sits by itself. Not hard to find though. Just go to Robinsons Mall area and ask someone where it is. They'll point.

Yella Man

This is the way I remember it...

Walking down Ramos ST. from Robinsons, you'll come across a large white restaurant with the name Abuhan II. I've never been inside. It looks like an upscale place.

Walking further, past some bars, you'll come to the entrance of Kan Irag Hotel, which offers cheap, but well worn room. If you walk inside the lobby, keep walking to the left of the reception counter, you'll enter Abuhan restaurant. It's not much to look at but has some very good food. I can't imagine a pimp approaching people in there, but then I don't think I've ever been in there without a date.

The original poster wrote about waiting for the girls at the gas station. I'm guessing that is back on Mango Ave across from the bookstore. I wonder if that was the pimps suggestion or the johns.

That gas station as well as a Chinese run grocery on Ramos seem to be overcharging foreigners. In both places I noticed the cashier would ask a manager about the price of a certain product I was buying -- bottled water. In both cases the price was significantly higher than in other places, such as the pharmacy at Fuente Circle. In reality, it's only pennies, but I still don't like the idea of getting a foreigner surcharge.

Pals,

I return shortly. Have to see my dwarf again (photos in Davao sec.) and two other ladies. I am thinking of trying the Waterfront Hotel near Ayala Mall. What is the general "take" on this place? A bizarre character named Sinbad whom I met in Makati last August said this was great and the Italian Restaurant inside was fabulous. Anyone know if this is accurate? This guy SInbad was constantly fucking wasted, but he did manage to fuck some lovely, young pros in Makati.

Dragon Slayer

About three years ago, I stayed in this hotel which I had been told was among the nicest in Cebu city. The room was grungy. Needed paint; dirty windows and the bathroom needed regrouting. The TV didn't work and it took two appearances by the maintenance man to get it working. We left the next day.

As I recall, the lobby was rather opulent and would lead you to believe that the rooms are commensurate, but its not so.

Don

Didn't stay there last year, but had dinner one night at the buffet just off the lobby. This was some of the best food in Cebu. Try it you'll like it!!

Dragon Slayer[/QUOTE]
Greetings DS,

Spent a few nights there last year and I would compare it to the Marriott both in comfort and price. The small and tacky rooms sort of reminded me of the Golden Nugget in Las Vegas. I believe it was around $70 USD a night but it probably went up. I don't remember an Italian restaurant but there are several places to eat. What I do remember is the buffet, as Snake mentions, with so many selections it will make your head spin. I only ate there for breakfast which was around $10 USD. I think the executive chef is European. The swimming pool is huge as well. Make sure you drink a few sparklers for me!

Excelsior,

Mattrick

I stayed there for 4 nights last month. The cost was $85 per night. The breakfast buffet at Uno's was very good and was included in the price. I never had dinner there. My friend and his traveling companion had a few dinners at some of their restaurants and said they were very good. One was the Japanese restaruant Mizu. I don't know if they ate at the Italian restaurant.

I would say it is a very good hotel. I have some good memories from staying there. However I would not stay there again as my last memory was the bill. They charged $4 per small bottle of Evian water of which I and the ladies drank several. At $30 plus dollars for water, I just feel they cheated me.

I read somewhere about a beach resort in or near Cebu that had huts you could rent that were built over the water, or moderate priced hotels I will be with my girlfriend, can anyone help?

Also I want to do some island hopping with my girlfriend do you guys have any recommendations?

Pals.

Thanks to all of you for your great advice. I cannot bring m two little girls here as they raid the "in room refrigerators". I would end up with a $ 150 bill for the sodas and candy and everything else they would consume.

I will have dinner here with my dwarf and ask to see the rooms. WIth my discount I pay $ 38/nt at Crown Regency (formerly Metropolis Court) for a deluxe room (very large with two queen beds and nice bathroom/bathtub) and $30/nt for one of the "Theme Rooms" on the first floor with a jacuzzi (much smaller).

T Vega,

Take 2 Hr Supercat from Pier 4 to Ormoc Cit. Beautiful and great beaches and lovely resort down past Don Felipe Hotel. Don Felipe was recently renovated and has rooms facing the ocean.

3 1/2 hour boat ride gets you to beautiful Dumaguete. Read the Board there for more info on the lovely seaside CIty. Has great resorts outside town on the beach with pools.

i am attaching 2 photos of a pinoy girl i met on the net. she claims to be not a bar girl. yet, some of her speech "terminology" seem more in the style of a bar girl.

if anyone met this girl in cebu bars or bonked her, i would like to get a pm from you please. if she is indeed a bar girl, i could treat her nice, enjoy her company, but without developing any feelings!

thank you for any help anyone could provide.

md

She looks pretty hot. I will trade my dwarf (see photos in Davao) and a "pussy to be named later" if you hook me up with her. Moving on, most regular ladies DO NOT sound or talk like bargirls. Does not necessarily mean she IS one but probably is. Like the traffic signal, "proceed with caution". A further indicator will be if she starts asking for sums of money from $50 to $500. Or she goes into graphic detail on the net as to how she will fuck you.

i am intrigued to exactly what you mean by [i]”bar girl speech terminology”[/i] because the language tends to be quite fashionable the way certain phrases are used.

however, in my opinion these “on-line girls” are far worse than many bar girls because at least some bar girls do keep their word. whereas, i have chatted to many on-line girls who can be trusted for all of two seconds, and are easily swayed by sweet words and lies from some guy in a country that i never knew existed before promising them the earth.

is not the first picture somewhat of a give away?

over my 15+ years in the pi i have not met many "non-bar" girls who would send me a picture like that.

Thanks Dragon Slayer I will look into Ormoc and Dumaguete sounds nice. Can you recomend a hotel in Cebu where I can leave my luggage for a few days as I check out the other islands.

I'll take Marriott over Waterfront anytime.

I stayed at the Waterfront last August and I found the same signs of neglect as some of the others. At the time Cebu Local told me that the place is run by the son of the original owner and he just doesn't know what he's doing. Some things are good, like the buffet breakfast and the pool.

I find Marriott to be a better location anyway, being right next to Ayala and much closer to the Mango Ave. bars. Waterfront is mainly good for Sunflower Disco and the complex of bars and restaurants across the street from the main entrance.

If you're worried about the minibar, you can just ask housekeeping to take it all away. Then just stock the fridge with your own stuff that you buy from outside.

But you can ask hotels to remove the contents of the refrigerator. most are acceptable to that request.

Most decent hotels should be able to do this for you, assuming you've been their guest. Holiday Plaza has a locked storeroom right next to their check in counter. I kept some things there when I was in Bohol for two days. There was no extra charge.

she swears that she has never been a bar girl. she admitted that she was not a virgin, as she was raped by her cousin!

she has never asked for money yet, and always very punctual for our chat sessions.

when the girl writes poor english to begin with, and then use terminology such as "short time" and "longtime" "fucky fucky - sucky sucky" etc., you begin to wonder where did she learn those. also, she indicated that she liked the daty. there are many other words she used that reminded me of bar girls in bkk.

yet she doesn't drink or smoke, and claims that never goes to bars. she has spent friday, saturday and sunday evenings (3 good nights for bar girls) chatting with me.

MD[/QUOTE]

[b]Muf Diver[/b], thanks for enlightening me there, I thought I had met many nasty girls in my time but obviously not. I have never had any Philippino girls use [i]fucky fucky[/i] or [i]sucky sucky[/i], with me, this is more Hong Kong, Suzy Wong or Pat Pong bar girl. I think this girl has a kid and a previous foreign boyfriend.

On the photos, I cannot understand what the deal is because trust me there are several studios in Cebu that take such photos that will guarantee these girls their [i]Honey Ko[/i] will be soon over to marry them. Several years ago when Filippinas could easily get to work in Japan as a [i]Japauki[/i] on an Entertainment license, I met many girls, [i]ex-Japauki[/i], who on their return, were very desperate to get back out and snare a foreign husband rather than face a life working, if they were lucky, in Jollibees and many of them took and sent out such photos.

I’ve had many of these types of photos the last one sent back in 2001 and the girl was naked, holding her tits and laying flat on her stomach. This girl had a kid and had been married to her husband, [i]ahem[/i], some 55 year old when she was only 18, the child was her boyfriend’s which obviously contributed to the failing of the relationship. I met her again back in 2005 in the Marriott with her 'new husband' an American guy, I did not let on too much about how I knew her, but she told me she was waiting for her papers to go to the States.

But if you are not planning on marrying her just enjoy yourself.

Pals,

Life sucks when you have to work constantly.

I am looking forward to this Trip. Few days in China first and then to Manila for a day or two with my lovely Jade. Then here to meet this beautiful new lady in my life, a single mother of a 4 year old. My dwarf wants to see me also. I even got an "online phone call" from Mae here in Cebu. I gave her phone number/e-mail address to a guy on this Board. Never heard if he followed up. I guess I have to see and fuck her again (tough life but someone has to do it).

Billpsu,

Crown Regency in Guadalupe has about 40 rooms with large jacuzzi bathtubs in the room. The rooms are not real big like the Rooms located on the 2nd and 3rd floors but the jacuzzi is great. Each is decorated on a different theme. "Roman", "Aviary", "Galleon" (decorated after state rooms on Titanic), "Alien" (has circular bed and ceiling with outer space view and there is a glass case containg an actual "alien creature" from the movie, "Aliens". I like all the above and the one called "Nature" with the jacuzzi in a pond like setting and the bed made from wood shaped like branches.

The list goes on and on. Some of these are rented ONLY for four hours as many Filipinos drop by during the day and have mistresses with them. You can park your car in the lower level and use a stairway up to these rooms undetected. They did NOT raise rates on these rooms after remodeling.

These rooms are great for fucking with the large jacuzzi. I often take one for the first two days here and then get a large room upstairs. I would like to have two babes at once in the jacuzzi. Maybe this Trip.

Muf Diver,

Many Pros do not smoke. Never having smoked, I always take a woman who does not. The beautiful Joann whom I met last July at Silver Dollar did not smoke or drink. When I frst met her as she said "hello", she reached down and cupped my balls in her hand and massaged them through my pants.

From how you decribe your conversations with her, she is definitely not a regular girl. However, just "roll the dice". Meet her and see how it goes. DO lock up your wallet, cellphone (remember my 2004 misadventure with the infamous Maribelle here) and other valuables.

i can't tell you how many times i've heard the [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord123][CodeWord123][/url] story. either [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord123][CodeWord123][/url] is a rampant epidemic in the philippines or filipinas see these stories as a way to explain their loss of virginity without sounding like sluts, especially with a conservative (superficially, at least) country like the philippines.

my last girlfriend told me she had been raped by a male acquaintance a single time, resulting in her getting pregnant. i take all these stories with about 2 tons of salt.

Guys if you're looking for a good lay of the land (no pun intended) take a look at lonely planet PI. It's the most thorough about the visayas. don't even have to buy. just go to a bookstore in your country and it's also in many national bookstores in the PI where it's cheaper but you will have to buy.

It also identifies which plasces are the "best bets" and you can really tell someting from those. For me, if you are in Cebu and want an island paradise to go to there is no competition: Panglao. I'm quite I don't hear more people mentioning Bohol (Panglao is a tiny island off the large island of Bohol and connected by 1/2 kilometer bridge) as part of their trip to Cebu. That's the place to go. Maybe they want to keep it a secret. BTW, it's closer than things around Negros.

It's quick close by super cat and taxi (3 hours total, tops) from an uptown hotel. BRING a girl. Alona beach is the bomb. Not too touristy, but also not too quite. People from all over world find there way there. if you like snorkeling or scuba then you must go. if you're a good swimmer, it's amazing for someone that wants to see an awesome very long reef.

Hotel suggestion: on the higher price range, try "bohol beach club" it's NOT on alona, you'll be more one your own with your honey. But what a spectacular setting and very reasonable for what you get. Maybe $60 a night. On Alona places are more simple. most about $30. Bohol Nature...is another price up from Bohol Beach club but I think worth it if you want to pay in the 70-80 range.

I won't give away my favorite place on Alona since it's already too popular and hard for me to get reservations (-: But second choice is Crystal beach because it's secluded, has an awesome pool, but a 500 yard walk and you are out of seclusion and on the best part of the beach. Rooms readily available.

It's an top of a cliff. Ask if you can have a place looking out on the sea over the cliff. They're 2 floor places with the bedroom loft on top. very reasonable.

cheers

interesting. I've had two girlfriends who were bar girls (open relationship) but no money exchanging, pretty much reall relationship, but open. Anyway, for them to go work in a bar abroad is really tough. One of the 2 was going to go to a bar in Singapore, but she just didn't know 100% what she was walking into. And, it's not legal with her gov or singapore. She'd go on a tourist visa.

She knew people that had done it. But if it's kinda an underground way of doing this...there's more risk. This girl is smart and can go back to school when she has some more cash. So, I talked her out.

But I don't think something like the japan thing exhists now.

Wander Luster,

Some good advice. I used Lonely Planet as my guide back in 1991-1993 whe I frst started coming here after years in Thailand. It is always a little outdated but has good advice. Not enough information to get you to where the pussy is or best hotels for serious fucking.

T Vega,

I have been leaving bags at Crowne Regency over the last eight years with no problem and "free of charge". In a few cases I left them there after going back to the USA (did not have time to return to Cebu). Never lost anything doing this.

I know a few isolated resorts on the Island where my woman and daughter live in our home. PM me for this as I do not want to publish too much direct information here, for the sake of my woman and little girls. I still like Ormoc City though as you have beaches, tons of college girls and lovely resorts. Same holds true for Dumaguete City.

As I am planning to be in Cebu on my first "fact" finding mission in the next three weeks, I would like to get some advice from the regulars here.

First, what are the best places for freelancers in Cebu?

Second, where should I go for the best live music/dancing in Cebu?

I scanned through the Cebu section and did not find a lot of suggestions. I would appreciate your valubale feed back.

Some places, esp guest houses, either don't allow 'joiners' or chrage an exhorbitant fee for them.

If the Canadian you speak of was a player, I assume they do but would like to hear some firsthand info.

Wow, I got an instant education on Pinoy girls' emotional problems!

The girl I was chatting with (further down the page with two photos and the same heading) became a little weird.

On a chat session she brought her brother and sister-in-law. Another day, she brought her aunt and cousin. Next day she brought two of her (good looking (I started drewling when I saw these cuties) girlfriends. All these people were first hiding outside the camera frame. As I caught the movements on the screen, I asked her is she with someone else. Then she introduced them to me! It seemed as if she was showing me off - the reverse of fish bowl situation!

Another day, when I chatted with her, I noticed her eyes moving around the screen a lot. So, I asked her whether she is chatting with another guy at the same time as she is chatting with me. First, she answered no, and then soon changed to yes an admitted that she was talking to another guy!

But, then the things took a bad turn. She accused me of spying. She said that I didin't trust her, and a whole lot of of crap came out.

I basically told her to go "fuck off." Now she is texting me, trying to chat, and she says that she is sorry, she loves me, she was jealous, and I played with her emotions, etc., I have blocked her off in Yahoo and MSN Messengers. She continues to text me in Chikka.

This girl is weird. I am so glad I did not meet her or bonk her. She seemed decent and serious at first. But, she is a loca just like my x gringa wife!

I second another monger's view in his posting about Pinoy girls. They are SUPER EMOTIONAL compared to their counterparts anywhere in the world. Even a bargirl is in love with you, and very passionate, as she is ALWAYS looking for a foreign husband, and LOVE. This is a big difference from the Thai girls or the latinas. The money was the number one objective for them.

So that's all folks for now! I will update again.

Hello MD,
Firstly, your story about your chatmate is very typical to the kind of things going on at net cafes. It is too bad that Jackson has not started a new thread on this subject since X Man and Blink157 requested it a while back so that certain threads would not be monopolized. Maybe you and I should make another request for the creation of a pinay internet liasion thread!
Secondly, You did not scan back far enough in this thread because there is a whole lot of info back there. As for myself, I've seen and/or have had good luck at the casino in Waterfront Hotel, the French Baker in SM Mall and several Bo's coffee locations around town. Make sure you check out the Sunflower disco, especially on Thursday nights because it is ladies night. You will have a better chance if you know how to dance since a lot of women can really throw down on the dance floor! What can I say, I'm in a good mood!

I am new to ISG and am looking forward to my first trip to Cebu. I was wondering if there is a list of hotels somewhere on ISG? Is there a way to find this information without backtracking through all 70 pages?

I have lots of other questions, but as a newbie I don't want to take up a lot of bandwidth. The main question is, is there a summary of hotels that are good geographically and WG friendly? Other web sites? Any suggestions?

Thanks for any help

A good starting point is the below website. Work your way to Cebu City and you will find a hotel map. Except for an experience at the Marriot, I have not stayed at a hotel in Cebu that is not "girl friendly." Also, always select a double room. Some hotels do appreciate you keeping a low profile with a girl, i.e., no dry humping in the lobby or long good night kisses at the front door.

Becasue I like to be centrally located, I stay at a hotel close to Osmena Circle.

Billpsu,

You´ve got me worried. I was set to book the Marriott for my upcoming trip. Since when is it girl unfriendly? In what way?

I have stayed at West Gorordio and Mango Park. West Gorordio has nice balconies, large rooms and has bathtubs (great for bubble baths, most girls here haven't had one). Breakfast included and can have it in room, for no extra cost. You can have money exchanged at fair rate at front desk, they have a money changer who delivers. Mango Park is a little more homey, has a small pool on rooftop, has a coffeeshop/bar, a KTV next store, and you can catch the 13C to Ayala for 7-8 pesos. Taxi 36-40 pesos. Breakfast included down in coffeeshop.

I am going to be in Cebu in May, if anyone wants to hook up for a few beers.

Will do, but I´m not going until Sept. Have my hands full with Peruvian cuties.

Pals,

I think it was Mufdiver who asked this. I like Crossroads for both dining out, dinner dates and single women. This is good for single women definitely on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights after 10:00PM when the Band begins playing.. Not certain about the rest of the week, as I usually have eaten dinner and headed elsewhere by 10PM. There are many restaurants here, including fine dining, a nice Japanese restaurant and a Bar/Restaurant that is dimly lit with a cozy atmosphere that stays open till 04:30AM. Also, a very upscale massage/health parlor.

For the Pro Girls I like the Silver Dollar on Osmena Blvd south of the Circle from 4:30PM to 9:00PM during its Happy Hour. It has very few customers then, lower rates on drinks and from 10 girls at 5:00PM to about 40 by 7:30PM. This place can be fun in the later evening but very crowded. Most of the customers then are older ex-pats and I would say that 90% are very heavy smokers. Never having smoked, I can personally state that I cannot stand this.

Last August I returned late one night to my Hotel and had to remove all my clothes and take a bath just to get the smell off. My clothes reeked and I had to have the Hotel clean all of them. For non-smokers you will definitely prefer this place during the early evening hours.

Was in Cuba last December and stayed at the Marriott. The first night I returned at approximately 11:30 pm with my find. On the way to the elevator one of the employees, I believe who was working the reception desk, asked me where I was going with the girl.

I made a sharp remark that I had paid for a “double room” and just kept on going. Needless to say, the next day I checked out. I just don’t need that type of embarrassment.

Are there any hotels on or near the circle that are all or almost all of the following:

Quiet
Clean
Good cable
Good a/c
Reasonably priced

Or is that asking too much?

Thanks,

What is your idea of "reasonably priced?"

You may want to check out the web site I provided just a few post back. It has a hotel map of Cebu City.

If you fly Cebu Pacific (in country) to Cebu the Midtown has a good deal. I showed them my boarding pass and got a standard room for 1400p.

Pals,

What is the quality of the Cebu Midtown Hotel now? This is at the Fuente Osmena Circle. I know it had been very nice before. But I had lunch in the restaurant a few months back and it was now a "cafeteria style" place. Had been very nice for many years. Are the rooms nice and elegant still?

Does anyone know if the other Hotel at the Circle (had been Park Place for years) is open? They were completely remodeling it for a long time. The entire interior had been gutted when I stopped for a look. In the early 90's I stayed at the Diplomat Hotel on F Ramos St. Cafe Adriatico (now at Crossroads) was directly across from it. It had been remodeled a few years back. Anyone know the status of this Hotel?

I will still stay at Crowne Regency Hotel with my children and woman. But I am looking for a new place for my other activities in Cebu where no one knows I might stay. I have had too many "close calls" recently when at Crowne Regency.

Stayed at the Midtown in December. It was a bit worn, but since I flew into Cebu on Cebu Pacific I go a good rate of 1400p for a Deluxe. All in all, it was not bad.

The other hotel you speak of - that was the Park Place - is open. It now has a glitzy "Casino Fillipino" sign. I stayed there on my trip back from the provinces. They had just opened and had a promo rate of 1900 p for a Standard, however, the room was very small. Did not like it.

I stopped at the Diplomat about a year ago. it looked so bad it scared me off.

Where is the Crowne Regency?

I think the Midtown is similar to the Apo View in Davao. Built a few decades ago, used to be the class of their respective towns. But decades of neglect have seen them falling apart one shower head at a time. I even stayed in one of the supposedly renovated rooms about a year and a half ago but plaster was falling off here and there.

Other annoyances: The TVs are set at a weird angle to the bed the remote often doesn't work without getting up and standing about 6 inches away. It's been like this in multiple rooms and changing the batteries didn't help. The breakfast is a bit lackluster. They never seem to keep the milk or juice filled up. If you use the Cebu Pacific promo breakfast is extra anyway I think. Luckily, the White House restaurant next door has a cheap all-you-can-eat buffet.

The pool is humorously small. But it is fun to go there on a Sunday morning with a bargirl when the haughty church ladies are going to the meeting room there. The gym equipment was being upgraded last time, so hopefully it's not as broken down as before.

Lots of shady people hang around outside at night. I wouldn't recommend using them. You'll probably end up with a ladyboy.

Finally, there's the infamous 2-elevator ride to get to your room.

But this place still has its advantages, run down though it may be. First of all the location's great. It's walking distance to lots of the bars mentioned here, numerous eating places, money changers and travel agents. It's also on top of Robinsons Mall, which has freelancer opportunities. Raintree Shopping Center across the street has a handy laundry and some internet places.

The views from the rooms are fantastic if you get above the 7th floor or so.

At 1400 with the Cebu Pacific Promo and maybe low 2000s without, it's still good value.

Finally, it's guest friendly.

All in all I'm still inclined toward the Marriott these days, even though it costs a fair bit more.

Pals,

Thanks for the valuable advice. I went online to check Hotels in Cebu for the first time ever. Tried five websites and found all of them lacking. Prices were more than what I knew I could get at a few Hotels, even though they claimed "cheapest rates available anywhere". Right!

Crowne Regency is nine years old. It was Metropolis Court and has just had extensive remodeling, including a complete remake of the Pool, Jacuzzi and the Entertainment Center on the second floor. However, the rooms on 2nd (deluxe) and 3rd (superior) floors are unchanged. These are very nice but have almost doulbed in price from a net of P 1050 a few months ago to P2100 now. They are large and have two queensize beds. This is great for my two little girls. Also, my one lady brought her 4 y/o daughter along once 9asked first and got my ok). The second bed made her feel "grown up" and gave us some privacy when the daughter slept.

This Hotel has the Wild Orchid Massage on the second floor. I like to have a girl sent to my room if whatever lady will not arrive for a few hours. I get a massage for P400 and extra service is P1500. I have done best when the Hotel simply calls and has a girl sent to my room. never was happy when i went and picked out the girl.

This place has "Theme Rooms" on the first floor. These are still a great value as they are keeping the price low for them. They have large jacuzzi tubs in them. I love bathing with a girl in the jacuzzi and fucking her good. I paid p1800 for one of these rooms in Feb 06.

Hi guys,

Some info to share as promissed. In Cebu on Tuesday with my girlfriend so not looking to pick-up just going out, the action there was slim to none anyone good looking was with somebody and not much around.

In Panglao Island at Crystal Coast Villa, it was recomened I did not care for it, it is up high o the rocks and has no beach, but that is OK sometimes it is hit or miss. Some of the other resorts looked nice they have places on the beach like Alona Palm Beach and Alonaville Beach Resort. As far as the beach goes do not expect Boracay you will be disapointed.

Hi Guys
Am getting a little bored here... No more tourist sites for me. Do any of the fun bars open in daytime? Also I have read mixed reports about the massage scene... any massage joints that stand out as being the experience of a life time?

Daring Mood[/QUOTE]There must be a market for a daytime bar in Cebu - as far as I know the nearest you will get is Silver Dollar which opens at 5pm and Lisas in Mandaue which opens at 6pm.

In terms of "bars," the Silver Dollar (just off Osmena Circle) opens with a happy hour at 4 pm.

I have gone to the open air bar across from the St. Moritz (off Gorordo Ave - where Magellan hotel was), but thats hit or miss.

If you really feel frisky, try the open air bars below the Capital on Osmena (Blue Bar was my favorite). Sit down and have a beer, the natives will do the rest.

My favorite mp is the Finland (tell cab driver LU Yum Blg. on Colon). Its not the Ritz, but it's open 24/7 and is one of Cebu's oldest. I have been able to drink a beer and pick in a relaxed setting. Usually got good service. The worst I have been in is Hearts. You have a plywood bed in a dismal 4x4 room.

Well I am back in HK now, and I have to say Cebu was very disappointing. Maybe I am too spoilt by the delights of China and Thailand, or maybe the slapper I met through FH (the reason I went to Cebu) was only good for a roll, but after four days together her lack of brain cells finally got to me ... anyway found nowhere to monger during the day. The taxi driver brought me to a massage joint which looked promising after an initial inspection of the ladies. However, the massage room had about 20 other guys being massaged at the same time. In the massage center has a big sign over the door reading "Health Massage" then that is exactly what it is..

The highlight of the trip was having GMA (she is real, including that smile) wave at me from her 4X4 after visiting the reenactment of the Battle of Mactan.

Oh yeah, and the beaches are crap....

Hello guys,

I just need some help to find a good lady escort. Not too expensive and not too cheap. If possible, a beautiful one and hygienic. Around Makati or Ortigas area, and if you have contact number I will apreciate it.

[QUOTE=Muf Diver]This girl is weird. I am so glad I did not meet her or bonk her. She seemed decent and serious at first. But, she is a loca just like my x gringa wife!

I second another monger's view in his posting about Pinoy girls. They are SUPER EMOTIONAL compared to their counterparts anywhere in the world. Even a bargirl is in love with you, and very passionate, as she is ALWAYS looking for a foreign husband, and LOVE. This is a big difference from the Thai girls or the latinas. The money was the number one objective for them.

So that's all folks for now! I will update again.

Is there no other hotel like Crowne Regency (The old Metropolis)? I stayed there a couple of times and I really liked it there. I'm not into the Theme rooms as I find the jacuzzi leaves a damp smell in the room (may be just the one I selected). I was there during SEA Games last year and the room selection was very limited.

I would really appreciate it if someone can recommend hotels similar to Crowne Regency (old Metropolis) and at the same price range. I think I paid around 1000 pesos for the large room in the detached building in the same compound. I know they have a separate Crowne Regency Annex hotel across the street, but I understand it's quite a bit smaller. I wish I had taken a look at the rooms in the annex last year.

I really do like this hotel because it's kind of out of the way, not too crowded. And I can put up with the cab fares to get to Osmena Circle and Ayala mall.

Made it to the Metropolis for a massage last year based on the Slayer's recommendation. Great recommendation!!!! The young lady I selected from a rather limited fish bowl was quite attractive and attentative. Shared the jacuzzi and then got down to business. I forget the total fee, but I think it was about 1,500 P. Great way to spend a hot afternoon in Cebu.

A real pain in the dick. One 20 y/o keeps texting me and wants tocome over wqith a bun ch of friends. No fucking way as if it happens I will be "no fucking"/

Tje dwarf has her cousin and friend both texting me and said she will come over after work. I had to reply that I am leaving the country tonight to stop this. These women are a little too pushy. They have to get in line. I have a 24 y/o I met online a fgew weeks ago. I only chatted her once but she is very excited to fuck me. I will Post on this later if anything to post.

The Hotel does look much nicer. Still need to improve the Bar downstairs and get women bartenders instead of the geeky guys.

WL recommends LP. I like the maps and info about out of the way places. Nevertheless, it has some serious shortcomings. Prices seem out of date. Also, they won't tell you about the seedier nightlife. At the very least they should list "areas to avoid" so that guys like us could find what we want. :-) Years ago when I was in the military I would take advantage of the "places to avoid" which were written up in "location reports". I always found what I wanted.

I concur with the Panglao recommendation. Take a girl and enjoy.

Pals,

I never made it to Silver Dollar. Sunshine (real name) met me at my Hotel and is with me now. I could use a new dick as this one has seen too much action the past 24 hours.

She is a gorgeous, 24 y/o with a "pixie like face" and small, perfectly round, lovely tits. Great body and wonderful lady. This has to be short as she is waiting for me now. Right to my side as I type.

[QUOTE=Thx1138]I'm looking for recommendations on the most reliable / cheapest cell phone privider in Cebu.

Thanks[/QUOTE]Cheapest is Sun or Touch mobile but coverage is not that good,I would with Smart.

I read a report about rolling blackouts.

Is this so, and if so, how many hrs/day, and how long is it predicted to last, days, week?

Are there netcafes with generators that stay open during a blackout?

I just got here on the 15th. I was looking for cell phone service as well. I ended up cruising around looking for places that offered to "open up" my existng cell phone. Cell phones are critical for avoiding unecessary bar fines, etc. Bottom line for me:

Went to a place in SM mall, near maxs restaurant. They opened my triband razr for 1,200 peso. The sim card (smart was the provider) was 150 peso. Got a 500 peso load for texting. Please note they were the FOURTH place i checked...and the only one who could do it. There's some difficulties with certain phones...and skill varies greatly from place to place.

Lots of used phones and open boxes here for fairly high prices. Seemed easier and cheaper to convert my phone. The only problem now is the girl from Finland massage keeps texting me. hehe. (just ask for the "Lu Yum" building...many taxi drivers know it. it is south of fuente osmena)

Damn she's a hottie. More information coming soon on that and more adventures here. By the way any other guys in the area give me a holler if you'd enjoy some collaboration. I've lived here for a considerable time several years ago, (married and divorced a pinay several years ago) so i have an insider track on a few things.

-Flea

Pals,

Last week i finally made it to Silver Dollar. I stopped by at 9:30PM, late for me here. I had some free time and wanted to see the action here. It was great.

50-60 lovely women and about 7-8 old farts. I felt like a teenager. Median age of the men had to be 70. Some guys had 2-3 women hanging onto them. I found a spot away from the smokers and ordered a beer. Had to fight off 5 women trying to sit with me. I kept telling them I was "window shopping" and if I saw someone I liked I would make a purchase.

One girl behind the bar removed her clothes to begin dancing. i called her over and began kissing her and feeling her lovely tits. She was 21,. 5'3" and had a beautiful rack of lovely tits. She had to dance so i said i would wait for her.I was considering giving her a good fucking in the private room but then I got a call on my cellphone.

Pixie was on her way over and wanted to meet me. I had to bid farewell just as she was returning to me. I still hope to make it back here when I return from Davao.

Dragon Slayer

I think it might be helpful to everyone if there was a definitive guide to the bikini bars with pricelist. I don't have all the info, but I can make a start

Silver Dollar

This is easy as it's a flat 700 Pesos. The girls here are great for attitude, although they may not have the best selection of lookers. There are a few babes, but many are pretty average. 1500 Pesos seems to be the rate for the girl, although you may be able to negotiate. Ask first if they are staying in the morning as many have children and don't prefer to stay.

Vikings

Absolutely hands down the best bar for beauties! 1700 Pesos barfine, where 1000 goes to the girl. This is where the pros work. If you want a girl knew to the bar scene, you'll need to go to Viking's sister bar - BG's Bikini Bar

BG's Bikini Bar

A Norwegian fellow who owns Vikings also owns BG's. There are some stunners here, and as I said above, here you can find newbies. I haven't barfined out of here, but I think it is the same 1700 P. The mamasan here is very approachable and is more than willing to help with your selection

Exotica

I barfined a little darling that had great GF attitude. I think she was the only young one there as the others looked a bit old and worn. I was quoted 1500 P short-time (three hours) where 700 goes to the bar and 800 to the girl. If you want overnight, it is 2400 P with 700 going to the bar. I chose the latter and was pleasantly surprised when my two ladies drinks (plus my two beers)were included in the 2400 bill.

Lone Star

This bar is a bit confusing as the girls seem to make up the barfine as they go along. I barfined a cutie in February for 2150 P where I was told upfront that 650 goes to the bar and 1500 for the girl. However, when I went back in April, a couple of girls tried to convince me that the prices had changed with a new owner. One had the audacity to say that the barfine was 2500 P and all that went to the bar. Another told me the all-in price was 2500 shortime and 4000 all-night. Later, I moved over to another set of girls and mentioned that the barfine here was too expensive. They told me -what!?! We have the cheapest barfine in Cebu for only 650 P!!!

If you go into Lone Star, be prepared to be mobbed by the girls. There are just too many of them, and there isn't enough business to go around. Even when you ask to be given some space, they are hovering.

Papillon

As mentioned by other mongers, give this place a miss. Most of the women are old and haggard. There are a couple of decent girls, but with poor attitudes. Maybe it is the management? This place is depressing. I made the mistake of barfining a girl here in February. She had a lousy attitude in bed and became irate when I only offered her a 500 P tip. I thought I was being generous since I didn't really enjoy myself. She compalined that the 2000 P barfine I paid went entirely to the bar and she got none of it. I almost believed her as she refused to leave until I got insistent.

Love City

What's the deal with this place. You are placed in chairs with a small table centered around a dance stage. Two girls dance while the others sit in rows of chairs at the side. All the girls have numbers, so I am guessing that you have to request them. There were about 6 men in the place and none had any girls sitting at the tables? I didn't stay long as there weren't any girls that interested me. Also, my San Miguel was the most expensive I've experienced in Cebu bars. Didn't bother to ask about the process or the fees.

Black Hole

It recently underwent renovations with new booths, tables, etc. They even have this brass cage off to the side for dancing. I've not barfined here as each time I've only seen some very average girls. I think I was told 650 P barfine.

Prices in General.

I think it is safe to say that 650-700 P is the price the bars take as a barfine. If there is a premium on that, it should be going to the girl. So, how much should the girl get for a night's work? My rule of thumb is that the girl should get 1500 P as base salary (what the bar gives her plus what I give her), and tipped on service. How much for tip? My thoughts are that it should be 500 for ok service and 1000 for exceptional.

What do the other mongers say?

Please advise

I would be very careful about paying a barfine that includes the tip. I did that at the Viking and got absolutely terrible service. The girl claimed period, would not give head, etc. My nephew, who is a good looking guy, had the same experience.

I have always regarded Papillon, Love City, and Dimples as tourist traps (forgive the pun). In Papillon, I tried paying for a beer with a large bill, they gave me the change in coins then all gathered around and laughed.

Lone Star is fun if you are just starting off the evening, however, I have found some real bad attitudes in there. For example, a group of girls once asked me to buy them a pitza because they were hungry. Since this is a soft spot with me, I bought them a pitza. When I would not buy everybody a drink, at the bars inflated price, they called me "cheap." Tought me a valuable lesson.

I have always found the Silver Dollar to be the best spot. The girls are not all stunners, but they are fun, and will perform as expecected.

I did not realize Exotica had changed its barfine to the all-inclusive system. I heard it recenty changed hands.

Has anybody out there discovered new spots in Cebu. It would be fun to get off the beaten path.


[QUOTE=Tooch]I think it might be helpful to everyone if there was a definitive guide to the bikini bars with pricelist. I don't have all the info, but I can make a start

Silver Dollar

This is easy as it's a flat 700 Pesos. The girls here are great for attitude, although they may not have the best selection of lookers. There are a few babes, but many are pretty average. 1500 Pesos seems to be the rate for the girl, although you may be able to negotiate. Ask first if they are staying in the morning as many have children and don't prefer to stay.

Vikings

Absolutely hands down the best bar for beauties! 1700 Pesos barfine, where 1000 goes to the girl. This is where the pros work. If you want a girl knew to the bar scene, you'll need to go to Viking's sister bar - BG's Bikini Bar

BG's Bikini Bar

A Norwegian fellow who owns Vikings also owns BG's. There are some stunners here, and as I said above, here you can find newbies. I haven't barfined out of here, but I think it is the same 1700 P. The mamasan here is very approachable and is more than willing to help with your selection

Exotica

I barfined a little darling that had great GF attitude. I think she was the only young one there as the others looked a bit old and worn. I was quoted 1500 P short-time (three hours) where 700 goes to the bar and 800 to the girl. If you want overnight, it is 2400 P with 700 going to the bar. I chose the latter and was pleasantly surprised when my two ladies drinks (plus my two beers)were included in the 2400 bill.

Lone Star

This bar is a bit confusing as the girls seem to make up the barfine as they go along. I barfined a cutie in February for 2150 P where I was told upfront that 650 goes to the bar and 1500 for the girl. However, when I went back in April, a couple of girls tried to convince me that the prices had changed with a new owner. One had the audacity to say that the barfine was 2500 P and all that went to the bar. Another told me the all-in price was 2500 shortime and 4000 all-night. Later, I moved over to another set of girls and mentioned that the barfine here was too expensive. They told me -what!?! We have the cheapest barfine in Cebu for only 650 P!!!

If you go into Lone Star, be prepared to be mobbed by the girls. There are just too many of them, and there isn't enough business to go around. Even when you ask to be given some space, they are hovering.

Papillon

As mentioned by other mongers, give this place a miss. Most of the women are old and haggard. There are a couple of decent girls, but with poor attitudes. Maybe it is the management? This place is depressing. I made the mistake of barfining a girl here in February. She had a lousy attitude in bed and became irate when I only offered her a 500 P tip. I thought I was being generous since I didn't really enjoy myself. She compalined that the 2000 P barfine I paid went entirely to the bar and she got none of it.

About a month ago i went to Cebu. What a dirthole. Definitly one of the ugliest and uninteresting cities i ever saw. Also went to Mactan Island, a wasteland. There is basically NOTHING, then a bunch of overpriced ghetto beach resorts.
No action at daytime at SM Mall and Ayala Mall (what the heck, one of the biggest malls i ever saw, and that in a 3rd world country on an Island). And also saw some foreigner guys sitting alone at some coffee bars, maybe it takes a few hours till a freelancer sits down - retired people sure have enough time- lol.
Midtown Hotel is total crap for the price you pay. Stuff sucks, breakfest too. Did anyone tried the pimps outside ?
Holiday... Hotel (forget the rest of the name) was good.

But i think i will go again, the chicks are cheap and perform well. I think i will stay near Mango Avenue next time.

Cebu is the SAFEST region in the Philippines,Even safer then Manila,Thats why the tourists all go here,There has not been a Terrorist incident since 1975,31 years

On my first trip to Cebu I went to BG's. I barfined 1 girl and then went back for her friend for a fantasy session. I interviewed both, Michelle & Nicol. 2 Spinners. Both said they would give me bbbj,cim and freak each other.

Got them back to room they didnt want to shower because they had small tities. They would not wash me. Went to bed got 1 hand job then they tried to leave. I told them they need to do something for my money and this was bull. They laid in bed. One got on top while other laid bored. She couldnt get me inside. She wasn't stimulating me. I was then going to try the other but she looked bored. I told them that was bull shit and asked them why thye lied. I told them to get the hell out and I was going to report them to the MAMASAN.

I went back there the next night. Now new to Cebu I didnt know its was only a 5 minute walk from my Pension house. As I walked in, Michelle seen me and ran. I talked to the MAMASAN and told her what happened. She got the girls and asked them. They admitted they lied. I told the girls I was going to paste them on the internet(sorry for late had internet problems hehe). The Mamasan told me she could not give my money back and did not offer another girl to replace them. I told her I will never come back there and I will tell all my friends and fellow mongers what to expect.

Stay away from there. If you ask anybody else, there is nobody that has had a good experience there except the poster.

More information please! I will be in Cebu in a few weeks.

What is BG's? Is this an abbreviation?

Where is it located?

Do you have the Mamason's name.

Because this happened to me in the past - particularly in the Viking - if you provide more information I will go there, look around, then tell the Mamason I will not barfine becasue I read about your experience.

I would encourage other mongers to do the same.

You know the longer I do the punter thing and read forums the more I realize that messages on forums can really make you MIS-informed. That is NOT because someone means that, but becuase they might be totally different from you but you have no clue about that.

I live in Cebu 1/2 the year. No point in modesty on here, I get treated like a rock star in the city AND THE BARS just like MANY other people on here do.

But will I expect that when I am 60? No! It's a totally different experience and I know that it will be. All the complaining on here....I have never experienced that. I don't think I've seen any of the bad attitude after bar fining more than 20 girls in cebu over the last 2 years.

Looks, attitude, hair color, sense of humor, etc....Some of us have 'em 100% and lose them as we grow old. Some of us GAIN in their popularity with Cebu girls as they get older. Some of us are lucky in wealth, others are lucky in love. Some are lucky in many, many ways but by chance their appeal to woman in Cebu is not at the top of their luck list.

As for tastes, sorry but I don't agree with some of the below post. Silver Dollar? I've gone and there twice and turned around and RAN. My God there are some of the worste looking girls in the city there.

Papilion is a tourist trap? What about Dimples? Those 2 places are 2 of the most obvious for tourists. AND they are more expensive. But I've found in general they have more hot chicks then places like BK (yuk) or Silver D. They have newbies too which is a good thing. As for Viking, someone got it head on: great time in, but not as great when out. Seems like mostly
1. lookers who have been in the biz for a long time. Not my type. Just too pro for me even though they would be great performers
2. New girls who for some reason just don't seem that amazing.
BUT there are some newer girls there sometimes that are great catches.

That is the bar that I have spent more time hovering and talking then any other. Something just doesn't quite click as well here for me. Again, I think it's because the best girls are just too pro for me.

Probably the most monster fuck (s) I've had in the past 5 years was with a girl that was new there. I say that both because of how amazing the sex was but also because she was the 9 that came closest to a 10 that I've met in many many years. A diamond in the rough who did not stay at Viking long.

Sometimes after a long session with a Phil., you just have to throw your hands up and admit they are the greatest in the bedroom. Submit to their superior status to girls from other countries....

There should be mention in the below of Firehouse which WAS my favorite and has changed into some name I forgot.

You guys that get cell phone numbers....wow, you impress me! I try, but don't have the patience. But I really hate paying the bars money after I've already paid them a few times.

Exotica is new. That's good to know. It's quite big. When I was there 3 months ago it seemed to be uncertain in it's direction. The girls were nervous there wouldn't be enough guys. And at that time there weren't since it was only a month old. Now it's "more on the map" I would guess.

I'll be staying at the Richmond on my next visit which is very soon. I used to have an apt.

Anyone want to comment on how the Richmond is these days?

What's the deal with this place. You are placed in chairs with a small table centered around a dance stage. Two girls dance while the others sit in rows of chairs at the side.

Great post WL,

One thing I concur with is that it's hard to know how some of these posts from guys actually relate to reality. In 99% of the cases we don't know if they are 25 yr old Brad Pitt look a likes or 60ish Dick Cheny types.

But you don't get phone numbers because you aren't patient??? Yea, it doesn't make sense to get a number and hope she calls you when she gets off work at 3:30. Get the phone number for later. "let's have lunch!"

I've spent lots of time with go go girls with no bar fine after the number exchange.

Last trip the girl called me even though she had no clue that I would be in country. I never paid this lady's bar fine. She apparently calls guys ever few days and if the call goes through she know they are in PI. Or maybe she was only calling me...since she "loves" me. All's I know is despite not remembering her at all, I knew she must be attractive...why else would I give her my number. She comes to my room and she looks hot and we get nasty real quick. She took the next two days off work.

X

In many ways I agree with your perspective.

As an overall statement, I have learned from this board and my own experience many times its just hit or miss.

I did mention both Papilion & Dimples as not only being tourist traps, but also having downright unfriendly management.

Silver Dollar - I have to say in all my trips to Cebu (since 1993) the best tag-team I ever experieced came from there (Circa 2003). One gal was as tall as me (5' 9") and built like a brick shithouse. The other was short with enourmous tits. For years after that session on my trips to Cebu I tried to track them down, but no luck.

There are times when I go to the Silver Dollar, have a beer, look at the line up, and just move on. All things being equal (manners, attitude, hygene) its like fishing, sometimes your lucky, sometimes its just an average catch.

Sometimes after a long session with a Phil., you just have to throw your hands up and admit they are the greatest in the bedroom. Submit to their superior status to girls from other countries....

There should be mention in the below of Firehouse which WAS my favorite and has changed into some name I forgot.

You guys that get cell phone numbers....wow, you impress me! I try, but don't have the patience. But I really hate paying the bars money after I've already paid them a few times.

Exotica is new. That's good to know. It's quite big. When I was there 3 months ago it seemed to be uncertain in it's direction. The girls were nervous there wouldn't be enough guys. And at that time there weren't since it was only a month old. Now it's "more on the map" I would guess.

I'll be staying at the Richmond on my next visit which is very soon. I used to have an apt.

Anyone want to comment on how the Richmond is these days?[/QUOTE]

BG;s is the name of the BAr. When you are facing the building Viking is on the left and BG's on the right. They are as close as an apartment door.

Not sure of the Mamasans name. I do know she is a fine piece of work IMHO.

Your note says you been to Viking. It is just the next door. Of course this is down the street from Black on that strip.

Please do tell her. She will remember me because I dont think most people will come back like I did. Mention the girls names.

Better yet, PM me, I will be more than happy to meet up with you and go in and point them out. I live in Cebu now. Nobody should have to get treated like I did.

[QUOTE=Billpsu]More information please! I will be in Cebu in a few weeks.

What is BG's? Is this an abbreviation?

Where is it located?

Do you have the Mamason's name.

Because this happened to me in the past - particularly in the Viking - if you provide more information I will go there, look around, then tell the Mamason I will not barfine becasue I read about your experience.

I would encourage other mongers to do the same.[/QUOTE]

Pals,

I am home now. I was in Cebu Again for about 10 days this Trip. Last time was in February of this year. I have been coming to Cebu regularly since April 1992.

Exotica is NOT a new Club. I posted on this place in November 2003. I have been going here since 1998, shortly after Bill purchased it. Bill sold it last June 2005. I last visited Exotica in August 2005. Had only six girls in the Club. Two had really shitty attitudes and though only 19, the one had more mileage on her than an overdriven '86 Chevy.

I tried Love City once and did not like it. Lousy Place with few girls. Dimples and Papillons are both overpriced. I took girls out of both and was never very pleased. I tried BlackHole last August '05 and was not impressed enough to return.

I liked the Firehouse and visited there a few times last year. I visited Viking with two other guys a few years ago and found it to be a ripoff. The Manager was married to some drunk Norwegian who died from alcoholism a few years ago. I have not been to BG's but would assume the same Manager (mamasan) is the one the guys refer to here. Not at all surprised that guys got cheated by her. She impresed me as that kind of tramp when I met her back then.

I like the Firehouse but I have never taken a girl from here. They always impressed me as being the "fuck and run" sort. Still I enjoy stopping by and the Italian Restaurant next door is very good.

My favorite has always been Silver Dollar. They have the largest quantity of girls as I posted here last week (50 -60 when I dropped by). I once had one offer to give me a blowjob right at the bar for P500. I said ok and she moved to get under the bar counter to begin the task. I stopped her saying I was just joking. I mean there were other guys in there and a good 40 other girls, plus the Manager and lady bartenders. Anyone on my side would be able to see her sucking my huge dick. I was not into putting on a Show.

I have not had any bad experiences in here or with taking girls out. Chris and John, the owners, are both pretty decent guys. I enjoy this Place except when there are a lot of guys in there smoking. Never having smoked, I am NOT into dealing with that.

I know the place you are speaking of, I just did not remembered the name.

Never barfined there, however, one night I spent an hour talking to the mamasan.

I would be very careful about barfinng at the Firehouse. A few trips ago my nephew and his friend both barfined from there and the experience was sub-par. After poor service, the girls insisted on having breakfast. I came buy and had a cup of coffee with them all, both girls had terrible attitudes.

I met a couple of lookers there (Firehouse), but their come on was a little too polished/rehearsed and, as a result, warning bells went off.

Again, the Silver Dollar, more likely than not, gave me my moneys worth.

I think the place that used to be called Firehouse is now FH. I've never bar fined there, although I once had a girl visit after work. She was hot, but this was several years ago when it was called Firehouse.

I met one girl I really enjoyed talking to back in Dec. Reasonably good looking. When I was there in April she was gone and there wasn't much else to interest me. Mostly Filipino customers. Some girls hang out in the back and talk to each other, not paying any attention to the customers. This could be a good thing, considering how fugly some of them are. Some of the dancers are good looking. They sometimes get off the stage and dance on the bar.

They do have a dance floor.

[QUOTE=Tooch]Papillon,

As mentioned by other mongers, give this place a miss. Most of the women are old and haggard. There are a couple of decent girls, but with poor attitudes. Maybe it is the management? This place is depressing. I made the mistake of barfining a girl here in February. She had a lousy attitude in bed and became irate when I only offered her a 500 P tip. I thought I was being generous since I didn't really enjoy myself. She compalined that the 2000 P barfine I paid went entirely to the bar and she got none of it. I almost believed her as she refused to leave until I got insistent.

Tooch[/QUOTE]I had exactly the same experience last night! My girl (Aubrey) also complained that the 2000 P goes entirely to the bar. But the mamasan said the bar fine is only 650 P. And she had a complicated story about the remaining 1350 P but I have understood that at least some part of it goes to the girl.

I really had a good time with Aubrey. She's a nice and quiet sweet 25 year old (although not so quiet in bed :-) ) with a lovely body and reasonable service and attitude. Until she suddenly said she wanted to go home. She was supposed to stay all night. She made up this excuse that we both could not sleep when she was around because then we wanted to make love over and over again. Which, I must say, was true:-)

To cut a long story short: I eventually gave her 600 P to get rid of her. She did not want to stay until morning and she did not want to go without money. She was very persistent. She said the bar fine is so high because of all the Japanese that come to Papillon.

So is this place really a rip off?

So far I think the girls in Silver Dollar and Temptation Club have the best attitudes, although I did only bar fine one girl from Temptation Club.

Also had a girl from the Black Hole this week and she was crap too. And talking about ugly girls: the Black Hole has plenty :-(

Where is the "Temptation Club?"

I finally returned to the Philippines, exactly 7 years after my first trip. I had saved a small fortune and wanted to have a two week adventure here in Cebu. I got a room at the Montebello. Nice place, liked it a lot. A bit out of the way but it has 5 acres of grounds to roam on. Struck me as a place to hang out with your gf or wife. Price was 2,000 peso incl a decent breakfast.

First thing I did was follow the Finland massage information found here in the forums. I was worried the taxi driver wouldn't know the "Lu Yum" building. But he did, and soon I was there. I walked in and saw the sign that read Finland was located on the third floor. Couldnt get the damn elevator button to work. A guy stepped over and spoke no english at all, he helpfully hit the button HARD and smiled. The door opened and I headed up.

Upon the door opening up, I was struck at how dark the third floor was. Literally there was a single light on far across the room. Shadows everywhere. A bunch of guys walked over quickly. I sized them up in case there was trouble. They apparently are there to guide you through the dark ass room to the actual massage place. The floor is rather deserted otherwise.

As I walked through another dimly lit door a mamasan looked up from behind a small desk and began hitting some buzzer. Suddenly there was some real light! A window to my left that was 5 feet wide and 2 feet tall had all kinds of commotion on the other side. It looked like a high school bleacher with about two dozen girls sitting up and adjusting their uniforms. Ahhhh, my first ever fish bowl! Yeah, I'm new at this and easily amused.

This rather stunning woman stood out in the crowd, looking me straight in the eyes. (later found out the fishbowl has one way glass and it was pure chance, heh) By the way... the damn puffy white uniforms they wear pretty much totally conceal breast, waist, and ass sizes. Grrrrr. I was thinking oh great...stretch marks, small tits, and flat ass! I took a chance on number 61. She had those DSL lips that I favor. I took their nicest room, as I had just got off a long ass plane ride and wanted something decent. 850 peso for 1.5 hours. Shoulda bargained better, but, bah.

A 19 year old calling herself Cindy walked in, and looked nervous. We made small talk, she washed me...I washed her (there is a small door to a full bathroom/shower, private of course). She had large b cups, slightly puffy nipples, TIGHT body...damn these filipinas put most other types of women to shame dont they?

She began to massage me. (you can choose oil, dry, and some third option I forget...I think just lotion) I took oil. She was awkward, we laughed a lot and it took a few minutes to get comfortable with each other. I'm in my 30's, dress very upscale, and only have a few extra pounds. Not that it matters but honestly I think that small finishing touches on yourself improve your chances at changing a professional transaction into a GFE. Soon enough this was the case. I hadn't mongered in the PI yet...so I was a little surprised when she was into kissing so much. She sucked my face forever, and had an odd fascination for my nipples. I had the same odd fascination for hers...so fair is fair eh?

This girl was ticklish, so I let her do most of the work. Fine by me. This girl began to give me head, nice and slow. After the action started I was able to handle her tits without her jumping so much. Firm and perfect they were! To my surprise now she started to deep throat me! Oh hell yeah! After a while I suggested we get down to some good old fashioned pounding on her perfect little box. She agreed. She was open to any style I asked for, so I got creative. hehe. Couldn't hold it any longer after I watched of her perfect tits bouncing she rode me sideways! After we finished she massaged me again, nice way to end a really great round of sex. She really took her time and spent the entire 1.5 hours with me doing some after-play stuff, and small talking. I was her first non filipino customer. This place doesn't see many foreigners I guess.

She asked for 2,000. Oh shit, I forgot to negotiate before we did the deed! Rookie error. I replied, in cebuano, the price was a little high. My secret is that I speak cebuano quite well and a bit of Tagalog. The only useful thing I ever got out of my ex filipina wife. The price went down to 1,500...I looked at her again and said if she wanted repeat buisiness...perhaps she could discount some? 1,000 peso it was!

She went to give me her phone number for some sneak-out time later...but I didn't have my phone adapted yet (see earlier in this thread). I ended up coming back the next day for more...with my cellphone modified and usable. When I chose her again her friends began walking out to look at me in the little lobby. You could almost read thier minds "Wow, look! An american that isn't old or poor...and he speaks cebuano!" They had that look in their eyes, if you know what I mean. She pushed them away from me and dragged me back to our love nest for more rounds and got me into her cellphone, and vice versa.

She made many appearances at places of my time and choosing those two weeks. This is one number I will not lose.

Overall I really liked the place. I understand the price is a little high...but seriously even after more than a dozen girls over the next 2 weeks at MANY bars... this girl was simply the best skilled / nicest body. Sadly only one other girl gave head anywhere near her skill level. The best part about Finland (besides her) is it opens early, 8am.

After this I went to the Silver Dollar, because it was the place that had the earliest open time I knew of. I didn't want to dwell too long on the amazing sex I just had lest I get tunnel vision. So off to the SD to try my first girlie bar....

I need information do I need take viagra to Cebu or is easy available?

And cost in Cebu?

Joe,

You are NOT reading Posts here. V is available at Silver Dollar. I used to buy it at Exotica. This had the best price by far for generic V. Tons of Posts here on both places. I bring my own to save the hassle of going out and buying it. I paid P500 for a four pack of 100mg of generic V at Exotica in Aug '05, last time I stopped by Exotica(did not like the quality of the pussy or their attitudes).

Dragon Slayer

Pals,

ok I did my homework and read back a dozen pages. Finland is in the Lu Yum Building on Colon St. We are talking the worst fucking part of Cebu. I used to workout in a Club on Colon St but NEVER went there at night. Good fucking thing this place is open in the morning. I will try it on my next Trip in two months.

I do think this Place is running the "two rate system" from the Posts here. It is in d/t Cebu on Colon St. This means it is very very unlikely its clientele is anything but lower class filipinos. I would guess the filipinos pay P 300 for a massage and P400 - P700 for a fuck and blowjob. I have spoken to many filipinos who frequent similar places and this is what they pay. No fucking way any filipino will pay P 850 for a massage and P2000 for a fuck/blowjob even in Wild Orchid, let alone a sleazy, dark d/t massage parlor.

[day 2, continued]

so i roll out of the finnland massage feeling really great. the dragon slayer is right about this part of town it's a god damn cesspool compared to other parts. i took a walk around places i probably shouldn't have. got lots of eye contact from guys wearing nothing but shorts and dirt. yeah, dirt. i'm not an huge guy (by american standards), but i'm big and strong and stupid enough to march off the beaten track. it was educational. i watched a guy with one leg, who in turn watched a dog die in the street. it had bleeding ulcerated bedsores and was all skin and bones. the fucking thing wailed every couple breaths. this little tour served as a wake up call. the world has a place for everyone. this was not the place for me so i moved on...

i walked for several kilometers and made my way back to the famed silver dollar. this place has a great reputation. i brought an objective mind to the scene to have a look for myself. the sign wasn't all that big. there was a little food joint that was barely more than a counter with seats next to it. i asked "hey, is the silver dollar open?". some girl nodded and pointed at the door i was already standing next to. this girl, i was to find out later, worked in the sd and was on break.

it was about 5pm give or take. i was thirsty. i needed to wash away some of the days earlier sights, and get back into the mood for fun. this was not a problem! as soon as i walked in i was of course greeted with cat calls. i was frankly overdressed for this venue. another rookie error. what a great way to beg to be overcharged. the 7, or so, girls at the door were strictly 5's. i would do them before my own hand, but just barely. heh. they suggested i "ring the bell" which means buy them all ladies drinks at the same time. i told them maybe later.

i saw a pool table and two black guys at the bar. one of them was dressed like the proverbial pimp. one of them was a big mother fucker who didn't speak. (more on this later) i sat a few seats away from them and ordered my first beer for the day. the happy hour beers are from 4pm to 9pm and a whopping 35 pesos. man you gotta love the philippines huh?

i was trying to figure out how this whole bar scene works, this was my first pi bar ever. i'm in my 30's so i may be a rookie but i'm not without experience. i watched how the black guys next to me interacted with the girls. they basically handled the womens tits and asses every time they walked by them. hahaha, subtlety at its finest. the pimp looking guy was mentioning to this short girl (short by filipina standards even, so she must have been 4'10'') that her tits looked like they "were growing nicely" as he was squeezing on them. she gave him a smile, then suddenly turned to me and said "hi!". next thing i know she's in between my legs squeezing my ass cheeks and pressing her face into my neck. ah yes, this surely is the most subtle place on earth.

i didn't like how she peeled off the black dude so quick, and didn't want any hard feelings so early in the night so i quickly suggested we play some pool for ladies drinks. i have to mention here that the girls here have some really great attitudes. they make you have fun. i can see why so many people come here. long story short is i talk to the girls and black guys for about 2 hours. the bigger one of the guys is from brazil, when i find that out i start speaking spanish with him and he comes alive. i am fluent in spanish, just barely. but barely was enough. us 3 guys had a pair of girls on us the entire time. the girls would pop their tits out and distract us when we would try to shoot the cue. this place just got more and more fun. cries of "i blowjob you, i blowjob you.... if you win!" were everywhere.

later on, about 7, the regulars began to come in. about 1 every couple minutes. some very decent looking ladies here. the same tiny girl latched on to me tight, she knew these women were pros and would surely tempt me away from her. i was in no hurry to change company though. i was more studying the surroundings and sizing up the women to see who i would barfine. the mamasan set up camp on my table and broke out some books to pay the girls. the tiny girl (fuck i wish i remembered her name) ended up being the girl who met me outside when i first arrived. she waved the other girls off, but...man... these bargirls would make exaggerated "come fuck me now" eyes every time she wasn't looking. they would walk by, stop, squeeze their own asses and look you dead in the eye while they licked their lips. yeah this wasn't their first time to the rodeo.

i was still very drained from finnland though. after about a dozen beers (and shooters) over 3 hours i was getting kind of tanked. my tiny girl was fairly new, and didn't let me touch her much which was odd, she just wanted the ladies drinks really. the other girls openly invited me to get blowjobs and more ...hmm... i felt all dizzy though.

i left at this time, but honestly the joint was just warming up. jet lag was kicking my ass. alcohol was kicking my ass. this tiny girl was locked on to my arm like a bulldog. time to go. lesson learned: come after 8pm, don't get [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord140][CodeWord140][/url] drunk, and be more aggressive or the bargirls will have you for lunch and stake you out as their territory, in a manner of speaking. i highly recommend silver dollar. the girls are not the absolute top stunners, but they certainly kick the other places asses in the fun department.

my mission for the next night was to check out the middle range bars, namely viking midnight sun and bgs.

[b][u]editor's note[/u]:[/b] [blue]i certainly hope that the author or somebody else will post a link to this report in the reports of distinction thread.[/blue]

good report.

from day 1 on this board i have extolled the virtues of the sd. its not fancy, the girls are not all stunners, but if you want a beer in a relaxed/fun atmosphere, this is the place.

i would again, warn anyone about the viking. the girls are all great until you pay the barfine - which includes their tip.

i look forward to your impression of midnight sun & bg's.

later on, about 7, the regulars began to come in. about 1 every couple minutes. some very decent looking ladies here. the same tiny girl latched on to me tight, she knew these women were pros and would surely tempt me away from her. i was in no hurry to change company though. i was more studying the surroundings and sizing up the women to see who i would barfine. the mamasan set up camp on my table and broke out some books to pay the girls. the tiny girl (fuck i wish i remembered her name) ended up being the girl who met me outside when i first arrived. she waved the other girls off, but...man... these bargirls would make exaggerated "come fuck me now" eyes every time she wasn't looking. they would walk by, stop, squeeze their own asses and look you dead in the eye while they licked their lips. yeah this wasn't their first time to the rodeo.

i was still very drained from finnland though. after about a dozen beers (and shooters) over 3 hours i was getting kind of tanked. my tiny girl was fairly new, and didn't let me touch her much which was odd, she just wanted the ladies drinks really. the other girls openly invited me to get blowjobs and more ...hmm... i felt all dizzy though.
from day 1 on this board i extolled the virtues of the sd. its not fancy, the girls are not all stunners, but if you want a beer in a relaxed atmosphere with a lot of fun, this is the place.

f
i left at this time, but honestly the joint was just warming up. jet lag was kicking my ass. alcohol was kicking my ass. this tiny girl was locked on to my arm like a bulldog. time to go. lesson learned: come after 8pm, don't get [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord140][CodeWord140][/url] drunk, and be more aggressive or the bargirls will have you for lunch and stake you out as their territory, in a manner of speaking. i highly recommend silver dollar. the girls are not the absolute top stunners, but they certainly kick the other places asses in the fun department.

my mission for the next night was to check out the middle range bars, namely viking midnight sun and bgs.

After seeing how much Manila had generally improved over the past 5 years with street lighting, trash, etc., seeing Cebu City pretty much the same on those and other counts was something of a letdown. Seems there's more traffic citywide and a few new things in the reclaimation area, but I didn't get the sense of a real boom there. Still, it's a magnet for job-seekers from all over the region.

I stayed at the Cebu Midtown Hotel, which I got at P1,500 net a night by mentioning the Cebu Pacific special (announced on the flight down there). I had to show a boarding pass for the rate, but otherwise no problem. The hotel seems to be aging and fading, but the location (above Robinson's at the Fuente) is still one of the better ones, and I didn't get hassled about girls.

There's a cluster of go-gos down Maxilom Ave. east of the Fuente Osmena circle between the Fuente and Gorordo Ave. Most, like Black Hole and Papillon, are bikini bars with no nudity and looks in the 6-9 range. A few, like Love City in the cluster and Thunderdome on F Ramos, are "KTV discos" with some showing. Customer drinks are pretty reasonable (P35 happy hour-P120) in the meat markets and usually a bit more expensive (100-150) in places that show. Lady drinks are P100-250, depending on the place.

Barfines are surprisingly all over the map, with Black Hole (600+ girl wants 1,500-2,000, they say) not terrible but Papillon (2,000 + 2,000-3,000 LT for girl) looking a lot like Makati. Thunderdome also wanted P4,000 inclusive...seemed steep. Club Exotica on Maxilom was one of the cheapest at P700 + 1,000, but it wanted the whole amount upfront, a little detail I didn't find out until the last minute. If you've been to Angeles you know that sometimes you get lackluster performances and some of the most amazing excuses why the girl has to leave right away even though it's 2 a.m., so it's up to you if you want the risk of paying upfront. Barfines in Cebu are usually separate from what the girl gets. They're more expensive than Angeles but should NOT be Manila-level, though there always seem to be bars trying to get that.

Another pick-up place was the Sunflower Disco in Lahug. It's spacious, well-designed (like a small-airplane hangar) and popular, if noisy. A number of proifessionals will be there and easy to spot, but it's not the easiest place to work if you're just looking for a regular girl, as you've got the noise and a seating arrangement that's hard to roam. Seemed like a real wingman situation.

On the street the costs are low (P500 STs easy to bargain), but it can be a pain. Don't walk along Maxilom between the go-gos and the Fuente at night (take a taxi!) lest ye be followed by 5-6 very vocal street pros all offering "massage" or company. As in many sections of the city, the street lighting is bad.

There are also alleys around San Carlos University, such as off the south side of Del Rosario east of Osmena Blvd., where you might see lots of girls standing around and be greeted immediately by male touts wanting to show you the selection. It can be a bit intimidating because it's so dark and doesn't seem safe. Some people just come in by taxi and have the girls come up to the windows, but to see the most selection you usually have to get out. Costs are usually P600 ST to P1,000 LT after bargaining, paid upfront. You have to negotiate any specialties or long-time; assume nothing. Some of the girls are real fresh-faced hotties, but they display widely varying degrees of enthusiasm. You want to do some interviewing and try to cut the chances of getting an unenthusiatic one. Best to lowball the cost for ST and get the digits or set up a repeat if it works.

What Cebu really needs is its own answer to L.A. Cafe. But many of the guys who come to Cebu are looking for LTRs, and that's w hole 'nother game. Angeles is cheaper and much more purpose-built for mongering.

I totally agree, the SD has a most relaxed atmosphere, kinda feels like the ole neighborhood bar back home, with some attractive, very friendly women.

[From day 1 on this board I have extolled the virtues of the SD. Its not fancy, the girls are not all stunners, but if you want a beer in a relaxed/fun atmosphere, this is the place.

I would again, warn anyone about the Viking. The girls are all great until you pay the barfine - which includes their tip.

I look forward to your impression of Midnight Sun & BG's.[/QUOTE]

@ Ploughman: Very nice report, thanks.

[QUOTE=Ploughman]Best to lowball the cost for ST and get the digits or set up a repeat if it works.[/QUOTE]How long is ST? Do you have to use THEIR ST-rooms, usually used by poor local customers?? Not really a romantic place with all the flies, stink, ancient beds and no aircon.

@ Fleabit: Keep on reporting, it's very helpful to me since I will travel to Cebu next month for the first time in my life. Thanks. A Forum like ISG needs reports like yours.

Sensor,

Short time (ST) is usally 1 hr and can go to 1 1/2 hours. The "VIP" Room at Silver Dollar is very nice and clean with a large bed. I was quoted P 1300 I think for the Room and Girl. I ended up passing when I got a text on my cell from some girl wanting to meet me. The next night I decided just to take the Lady out of SD as she was really sweet and we stayed together till she had to return to work late the next afternoon.

In Exotica Club there are four "VIP" Rooms upstairs. I have taken women to these rooms six times, different girl each time. Always got a great fuck and blowjob and often a scond fuck. No time limit and I would ALWAYS tip P500. I paid P1500 for a regular room and P2000 for one with its own a/c and In Room Movies. All of these rooms are nice.

Took mine to the hotel and don't remember getting any resistance on that, though I wasn't staying far away. Girl will probably ask you for some money "for taxi" afterward; I usually keep that below P100.

Am sure the girls or touts could take you someplace if you wanted, but probably best to stay away from that.

Good reports here these last few days by Fleabit and Ploughman. I hope to add them in my July to September stay.

As I recall the Exotica VIP room deal also included about a dozen glasses of beer. But I think that was under the old 'Bill' regime so it could have changed. I'm not sure if I had a regular room or not but the furniture is just chairs and restaurant booths so you get to try out all kinds of odd positions with your girlie.

I also love Silver Dollar for the general good times to be had there. The lineup usually isn't the best looking in town, in fact they seem to have more than their fair share of rejects from other bars. But just the talking and shooting pool is always a hoot. Usually I don't take anyone home from here but I don't mind because it's just an added bonus if I do.

How are your experiences of getting the girls cell phone numbers? (ST and LT, if this makes a difference). I need something to 'do' in the afternoons.

Dragon Slayer[/QUOTE]Thanks Dragon Slayer & Ploughman. Although that didn't answer my question ;) (my fault, I should have asked more exactly) But akways very good to get some infos on SDs and Exoticas VIP rooms, I guess I would have asked for that sooner or later.

What I wanted to know: how are the 'VIP' rooms of the pimps on the streets or/and in Junquerra?

It's going to be my first trip to Cebu and I want to try out Junquerra at least once but am a little afraid to let those women into my hotel room. Plus -according to what I've read here- Junquerra seems to be kind of a trial & error place and I don't want to waste a whole night (and money too) because of a rip-off girl that only stays for several minutes.

But I think you must have seen it in order to deserve the title 'monger' ;-)

Had the same experience as Mahku for VIP room at Exotica last year. I have no problem with odd positions with my girlie. Kinda kinky, but not like the backseat of the old Chevy. BTW, I think some of the ladies downstairs were getting an eyefull through the curtain. Tried to put on a good show. My partner seemed to enjoy, and so did I.

[/QUOTE]I didn't know they had any, but there are hotels of varying quality in the area and even some of the "better" ones have hourly rates. I have stayed as an overnight guest at the Mercedes Hotel and found it to be OK. I looked at the Cebu View Inn but didn't go for it. (On ST you're probably less selective).

What nearly everyone is going for in the tout-handled street areas and cul-de-sacs is someone of college age who's not a hardened pro. You'll hear stories of how ___ is only trying to earn tuition money, or is an office worker who only shows up once a week and wants to earn extra money, etc. One problem, besides accuracy sometimes, is that those that might fit that description are also the ones who might be reluctant to go with you. They're usually not dangerous, but they give only the bare minimum on performance and without enthusiasm. That's why I think you should take a little time on talking to them to try to separate the reluctant ones from the ones who are just a little shy.

OTOH, the hardened pros, like some walking Maxilom or a few working the Sunflower, are the ones to watch out for with things going missing from the room or funny-tasting drinks.

Would also agree about the Silver Dollar; it's popular and has a pretty good happy hour and enough regulars seemingly to ensure it goes on forever, but is more like a hostess bar than a pick-up go-go.

Oh, not too bad. Just avoid the wet spot.

Just a little note...I've seen posters name the Finland Spa building as Lu Yum and Lo Yum. I tried that on my cabbie and he corrected me as LUYM (pronounced Lu Em). In fact, this is the way it is spelled on the building.

The set-up was as advised and was shown the fishbowl. I chose number 14 - a big breasted 19 year-old with a very good attitude. I asked her rate and she came up with 1500 P. I then asked her "what do the Pinoys pay"? Anyway, she was happy with 1000 Pesos.

I will go back and may partake of their discount card. The manager told me that every 8 times gets a 50% discount and every 24th time is free!

There were plenty of decent looking girls there in the afternoon. I asked if there were any new girls. The manager said those are scheduled for the night shift. I don't know if I want to go there at night!

Definitly give it a try!

Tooch

Pals,

I don't know. During my young, crazy years I would venture around Junquera, Pelaez and Sanciangko Sts late at night. This area then (and I am certain now) was full of very sleazy Bars and Clubs. Manny's down the street from "Our Place,"a dive bar patronized by "out of luck" (and money) ex-pats in Cebu, comes to mind. There was even a genuine Barber Shop were during the day you could get your hair cut and at night your dick sucked. I imagine your pubic haircut then also. In 1992 I was next door at a telegraph office at 8:00Pm and saw a group of young girls sitting in the chairs at the lobby area of this dumpy barber shop. My young naievete had me thiniing these were girls waiting to get a haricut. They were the "Night Shift" getting ready to go to work fucky/sucky.

A block south of Junquera puts you in a maze of side streets. In the late evening if you are adventurous enough to stroll through here you will encounter literally dozens of young & old prostitues working the streets. I a certain that the "Big Three" streets I named above had many, many massage parlors also.

Then, Long on Courage and Short on Finances, I would stay at Hotel de Mercedes on Pelaez St and frequent Our Place during the day (decent food but lousy company; very cheap prices of course). In the Night I ventured out to Manny's first (all nude stage show) and then to several other Bars there.

Honestly, it was fun but sleazy. Also dangerous but I did not give a shit back then. I have not ventured back there in about six or seven years and cannot remember the last time I visited one of the Clubs there. Nothing ever happened to me but, looking back, it was a very foolish thing to do, wander around this area late at night ALONE.

If you visit this area or Colon St, at night bring 3-4 friends along. The kid who would shine my shoes at Our Place was stabbed on Sangciangko St and almost died for the few pesos he had in his wallet and his shoeshine kit. A tricycle driver was stabbed to death here by the young, punk boyfriend of one of the waitresses working at Kukuck's Nest (another Ex-pat bar on level of Our Place). The punk got P50 from the driver for his efforts. While in jail awaiting his murder trail, she would skip work from Friday night to Monday morning ( I saw her return at 8:00AM)m as I was having breakfast) to sleep with this loser in the filthy jailhouse.

The values these people have are totally different from our western values. I confine my activities in Cebu to Silver Dollar, Wild Orchid Massage and Crossroads in the evening. Safer, cleaner and much better quality pussy.

Dragon Slayer

Very good analysis and advice.

I stayed at the "Mercedes" about 4 years ago. After I laid down, and before the a/c got going, my face was bitten all over by mosquito’s.

It's worth repeating that one should not to venture too far into that jungle unaccompanied. I understand and experienced the exhileration of visiting these types of places, but I always came away disappointed. The women were - more often than not - scags who would steal your wallet while sucking your dick.

Risk reward wise, definitely not worth it.

Quote from Cebuliving dot com this month:

---
Silver Dollar and Exotica both don't have or operate a VIP/private room according to their answers on my respective question last month.
---

Is this true?

Well Exotica definitely had rooms 2 years ago and I can't see why they wouldn't now.

I've never tried at Silver Dollar but I think I saw a report where somebody said there's a room. In a pinch you could probably use the girls' changing room or something...

I was in Exotica last December and was told VIP Rooms were available. Did not check the price or stay long, I was the only one in the place and the line-up of girls was terrible.

I will be in Cebu next month, if no one else posts an update by then I will do so.

Based on my Cebu vacation last June 14, 2006, generally speaking the prettiest, sexiest and best girls in Cebu can be found at:

1. Club Harem - heavily petted with a gorgeous girl, almost banged her
2. Arena Club
3. Jaguar - got a girl, banged her at eddies hotel

The rest of these places below, i've been to but didn't find them as nice as the 3 above ...

Infinity KTV - didnt see any nice girl
Steve's KTV - didnt see any pretty ones
Waterfront Lahug - there were girls waiting but not my type
Silver Dollar - friendly girls, but hardly any pretty ones, banged one at hotel
Papillon and neighboring bars - almost same as above
Dimples - same stuff
Club Temptation - same stuff
Finland Massage - low class, mostly old girls
Orchid Massage - similar, i didnt like anyone
Casas, including monettes - not my type

Conclusion: It seems that most of the prettier girls of Cebu have transferred to Manila.

In 3 weeks I'm going to arrive at my hotel on mactan Island, so I have to start to concretise my plans.

Just heard from two different persons that you can 'buy' girls at MBs Tavern, which means that you bang the girl in the rooms there and have to pay for it. (Just like VIP rooms) I'm doing research on cebu-nightlife for about 6 weeks, but never heard about that.

Is this true?

I can say for definate that Exotica does have VIP rooms. Or at least it did last January. You can go VIP with a girl of your choice for 1500. The choice was limited but there were a few crackers.

Dimples was also pretty good as was papillon. I found the girls there to be really friendly and quite sweet. Or they acted that way anyhow!

Over the road BG's was where the real action was and it felt like walking in a roman bath house with couches and people lying everywhere groping each other. Although many of the girls looked very,very young which was a worry.

There was also a lot of action at the Waterfront casino but the quality was not too good.

I will be in Cebu next month. Can you provide the location/prices for 1, 2, & 3. Also, where/time at the Waterfront.

Been to the rest and it has been hit or miss for me - except for the KTV's, Papillon, and Dimples, which have always appeared to me as absolute rip-offs.

Thanks - Bill

The 3 clubs are either at Mandaue area or near it. I make it easy for me so I just take a taxi and tell the driver to go to the clubs. These 3 places are a bit expensive, especially their bar fines, about 5 to 7 thousand. At Club Harem, ask the mamasan to show you the aquarium where the pretty and sexy girls are, The trick is just to table the girl that you like in a VIP room, then start petting them or just drinking in a bar or a seperate table then asking the mamasan for you to see the girls and offer a drink to the one you like. The important thing is to get their tel. No. Then tell them you'll call them tomorrow and possibly go out or to your hotel in the afternoon. Their price to go to the hotel may be P3000 more or less depends on how you negotiate. The girls here are not automatic fuck girls, you have to use your skill and charisama aside from money. I heavily petted a gorgeous girl at Club Harem in the VIP room. After some sweet talk, I finally stuck my finger into her juicy and absolutely nice smelling pussy, I got her tel. No. Called her the next day and she agreed to go to my hotel, but she wanted P3000, but somehow I did not bite that. Another night, I was at the bar at Jaguar Club and signalled some ladies to come to me, I conversed with them and took several tel nos. I called them next day and one lovely lady by the name of Cielo agreed to go to my hotel, we first took breakfast then proceeded to my room for a wonderful banger. She was some kind of enticing moaner and we both really enjoyed the act. I just gave her P1500 though she wanted more and just told her I'll give her more next time. Arena Club has also many pretty girls similar to Jaguar, maybe better looking ones than Jaguar. They have an aquarium to display the girls and VIP rooms too. Waterfront in Lahug have some girls waiting too, at about 10 or 11PM time more or less, but may not be consistent. Ceilo told me that she would bring some of her friends and cousin to waterfront where I met them, they were ok nice looking but somehow I didn't take a girl, instead I played in the casino. Another night I was at Silver Dollar Club, as I said girls are friendly but rarely any beauty there, I bought several drinks for several girls, since the ladies drinks were dirt cheap P150 ea. Got the tel. No. Of a girl because she was so friendly, petite, very clean and smelled good. Her name was Diane. Next day I called Diane to go to my hotel, she did and I would say it was really pure pleasure banging a petite and small lady whom you can carry and manuever to any position you like. I paid her P1500 for her good service and she was satisfied. By the way I am a pinoy but now a naturalized US citizen, so my style of mongering may different, but that's just my experience in Cebu and hope my info and experience helps the rest of you.

Thank you - just one more question, where at the Waterfront? At the bar; or do they hang out in the large seating near the entrance.

Thanks again.

Ceilo told me that she would bring some of her friends and cousin to waterfront where I met them, they were ok nice looking but somehow I didn't take a girl, instead I played in the casino. Another night I was at Silver Dollar Club, as I said girls are friendly but rarely any beauty there, I bought several drinks for several girls, since the ladies drinks were dirt cheap P150 ea. Got the tel. No. Of a girl because she was so friendly, petite, very clean and smelled good. Her name was Diane. Next day I called Diane to go to my hotel, she did and I would say it was really pure pleasure banging a petite and small lady whom you can carry and manuever to any position you like. I paid her P1500 for her good service and she was satisfied. By the way I am a pinoy but now a naturalized US citizen, so my style of mongering may different, but that's just my experience in Cebu and hope my info and experience helps the rest of you.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=Billpsu]In many ways I agree with your perspective.

As an overall statement, I have learned from this board and my own experience many times its just hit or miss.

I did mention both Papilion & Dimples as not only being tourist traps, but also having downright unfriendly management.

Silver Dollar - I have to say in all my trips to Cebu (since 1993) the best tag-team I ever experieced came from there (Circa 2003). One gal was as tall as me (5' 9") and built like a brick shithouse. The other was short with enourmous tits. For years after that session on my trips to Cebu I tried to track them down, but no luck.

There are times when I go to the Silver Dollar, have a beer, look at the line up, and just move on. All things being equal (manners, attitude, hygene) its like fishing, sometimes your lucky, sometimes its just an average catch.[/QUOTE]

I've been here (again) for over a month. My opions change more! I am now realizing how much there is a "flavor of the month" to the bars. Girls are constantly leaving to move around. new girls come all the time.

I hate to even say what the IN place is now, but one night going around and you'll see where all the cuties are.

I didn't really have probs with the management at Dimples or Pap. They are so visible you'd think they'd be to overcrouded, but sometimes the bars that are NOT visable get such a lack of visitors that all the girls leave for somewhere else.

Cheers.

Billspu,

I saw them at the large round seating area at the entrance of the Casino in the 2nd. floor, they may also be in the lobby wandering around, I noticed some of them also inside the casino waiting for winners to approach them, it may be a hit and miss to find these girls, since there are really not a lot of them hanging out, goodluck!

Thanky you for your timely response.

[QUOTE=Midas Touch]Based on my Cebu vacation last June 14, 2006, generally speaking the prettiest, sexiest and best girls in Cebu can be found at:

1. Club Harem - heavily petted with a gorgeous girl, almost banged her
2. Arena Club
3. Jaguar - got a girl, banged her at eddies hotel

The rest of these places below, i've been to but didn't find them as nice as the 3 above ...

Infinity KTV - didnt see any nice girl
Steve's KTV - didnt see any pretty ones
Waterfront Lahug - there were girls waiting but not my type
Silver Dollar - friendly girls, but hardly any pretty ones, banged one at hotel
Papillon and neighboring bars - almost same as above
Dimples - same stuff
Club Temptation - same stuff
Finland Massage - low class, mostly old girls
Orchid Massage - similar, i didnt like anyone
Casas, including monettes - not my type

Conclusion: It seems that most of the prettier girls of Cebu have transferred to Manila.[/QUOTE]

Pic of Diane from Silver Dollar.

Went in Dimples about a year ago, early evening around 7pm. Ordered a beer and tipped the bartender 20p, then talked to a lady and bought her a drink. As an aside, I always conduct myself as a gentleman. Civility and manners goes along way with me.

Since I had just come from changing money I only had 1000p notes. When I went to pay the bartender asked me if I had anything smaller. I explained - ever so politely - why I did not. The bartender then proceeded to give me as many coins (as change) as possible. The bartender, a waitress, and the girl I bought a drink for, started laughing out loud as I tried to scoop up the money and leave.

Consequently, I would encourage anyone not to patronize either place.

Hi guys,

I read many time all the reports and I am very supprised that no body talk about chatting webside!

Before visit a country I alway go on ICQ or YahooMessenger (free) or Filipinofriendfinder.com (somepart free) or adultfriendfinder.com (pay site) filipinoheart.com. And I always manage to meet girls.

Now I stay in Cebu for few years and many time during day time I meet girls. (evening and night I told them I work. In fact my wife wait for me! ) Usely I arange the first meeting in a coffeeshop. Go to theater (many time in the theater the girls will start to kiss and touch.) usely the second meeting is at the motel room!

Last week I went to the same motel twice in the same days with two differente girls! I screw 6 different girls the last 3 weeks FOR FREE! And I am not available evening or weekend! I am very selective, nice look, good manner, no drug, no smoke, no tatoo, and slim, (sorry I don't like big boops:)) If you are available evening or weekend's you can have dozen of girls absolutely free! We meet few times and. Arange to brokeup. :)

By the way sometime I used some pro girls never pay more of 500pesos plus de room!

So guy's be smart and stop to pay too much and enjoy. !

I am 2 weeks out of getting on the plane and going back over on business.I have never stayed in Cebu and want the scoop on where to stay and where the gals are.What is a good area to stay in and how far from the action is it.I have never had the pleasure of this area and would like some good input.

Thanks, Play safe.

I have been to Cebu 3 times in the last year and stayed many places. I quess the big question is what type of hotel you wan tot saty in and just how close to action do you want to be.

How long will you be in Cebu? If it is for a short period of time I would suggest the Raja or Midtown. Both are centrally located on Osmena Circle. The Midtown is over Robinson's Mall.

If you fly on Cebu Air you can get a great rate at the Cebu Midtown. I paid about 1400p for a standard last December. It is a little "worn," but I found it clean and a good deal if you fly Cebu Pacific.

The Rajah is the old "Garwood." It has been completly renovated and has a big "Casino Filipina" sign on it. The rooms are a bit smaller (I paid 2400p for a standard in Jan 06), but again you are paying for location.

From either you can walk to the Silver Dollor & Firehouse. I have no problem walking down Mango Ave to the rest of the "usual" bars (Exotica, Black Hole, etc.).

Good luck.

Bill:

If you want a cheap hotel try looking at Northwinds, usually around P1200 not bad rooms either. The advantage is you are close to Sunflower disco (a great pickup place) and Ayala mall (also a great place for freelancers). Also you can walk up the block to JY square for breakfast in the French bread restraunt, a McD's etc.

I also suggest the Richmond hotel, once again Very cheap, good location, I stayed there several times and one could walk to the lone star bar, and the area of the Black hole, silver dollar etc. Price was around P1200 a night. VERY girl friendly and you can walk to Ayala. I dont know if you care about this but there is a GREAT gym two blocks from the Richmond in the Mango square business park.

You might also try Eddies, a little higher, maybe P1400, have heard some bad things about it but I personally never had a bad experience there.

Here are a few other hotels you can check out if the others are booked up.

Mango Square, Castle peak. All are in the P1200 to P1500 range.

If you want a little more upscale check into Montebello, its near Country Mall and IMHO a bit out of the way, however a great pool.

As far as bar action I only place I've been in is Lone star. Best luck you can have in Cebu is looking for the numerous freelancers lots of students there in from the provinces. You can try to make contact with them in the Mall's like Ayala or SM or Robinsons.

Sunflower which I mentioned before has a lot of freelancers, sometimes you can score witht he numerous Korean or Jap girls but you probably need a sidekick. Also check out Ratsky's in Ayala Mall and Sinners and Saints near Country Mall, all disco's, come around on Ladies night, usually wednesday
or Thurs.

Consider this surefire plan of attack. Try chatting up some of these girls on yahoo first, collect a few phone numbers and line 'em up on slow nights. The Cebu internets are full of young women trying to meet foreigners, try going into one of them and smile at Rosie while she's chatting, see what happens.

I know you dont like old bastard expats like myself but if you need any help I'll probably be in cebu for a mixed martial arts tourney end of July. I know a lot of the cops if you get in trouble give me a holler, I bail your young ass out.

Thanks for the informative post SH,

I went to Sinners and Saints, and was the only foreigner there. It was crowded and I didn't like the situation....they asked the two of us to move to another table because they had "other" customers. Nevertheless, I wouldn't hesitate to go again. It's a very Filipino atmosphere. Go with the flow...

Country mall.....what is the name of that street again? If I'm not mistaken there is a restaurant called "Lighthouse" there and a smaller version is located on Mango Blvd (Maxilon....what is the official name?). This place is very popular and you can expect Filipino service (be patient).

Across from the mall and a bit north is a expat bar called Badger. Many taxi drivers don't know this place, but it's on the opposite side of the mall and just a bit further up the road. If things are still the same, they have flag motifs in the window and occupy the first and second floor. You should be able to see the place from the road even if your taxi driver is clueless....as mine was.

On weekdays the 2nd floor is empty (WAS empty) and I enjoyed a nice quiet* date there on two different occasions. *On the second occasion a salsa group started their dance practice/ lesson about 8 or 9 pm, but it was actually entertaining rather than disruptive.

I visited the Casino 3 times in January and found girls on th ebenches there. Looking very bored and waiting to be approached, they were obviously working girls and probably cheap but I did not enquire.

I found the girls at Exotica, Dimples and Papillon to be really nice. One or two pushy ones but on the whole they were nice ladies just there to make a buck. Some real cuties you could fall in love with. Yes, they ask for drinks, but so what, the drinks are cheap anyway and all of the places are free to enter.

I agree with you on Sinners and Saints, lot of Filipinos, also some spotty service I was there with the Mrs and I noticed a LOTof upscale gals (some giving me the eye too) as I was the only foreigner but overall a nice atmospere, who knows maybe if we tout it a bit here it might develop into a "good place". SAints, is close to country Mall, dont know the street but I think the Barangay is Banilad, main road anyhow.

Also check out a place in lapu Lapu city (I think) called The Cadillac, nice place, it is run by an expat, guy treats you like royalty. Nice dance floor, liv e band and resturaunt serving good food, also lots of ladies "unattached"possibly looking for one of the expats who frequent the place. rememebr I can't (don;t) monger as I go there with my wife. So its up to you guys to carry the torch.

Good luck

Cebu City and a tale of did-he, he did.

I just spent a weekend in Cebu City and would like to thank this board and you guys for the information. I was hoping to meet up with Dragon Slayer, but he was not visiting at the same time.

Exchange rate was a little over 52 pesos for a US dollar. Rajah Park Hotel, located on Fuente Osmena, a traffic circle, has a special room rate of 888 pesos plus government tax, which came out to under $20 for one person. Add 600 pesos plus tax for a second person in the room with breakfast. A manager at Cebu Midtown Hotel said that a Cebu Pacific Air (CPA to the accounting types) boarding pass shown at check -in could get a deluxe room for under 2,000 pesos, which was about $38. The Rajah room was called a studio and was clean and newish with a tile floor and a queen-sized bed, which had a snug but not closed-in feel without a window.

Food was cheap too. Food court in the basement of the same building as the Midtown Hotel had about a dozen stalls with a place of white rice and a meat dish starting about 65 pesos (about $1.25). An eat-all-you-can (not all-you-can-eat) buffet restaurant called Joven located three blocks from the circle on Osmena across from the hospital offered lunch for 135 pesos (about $2.60). There I stuffed myself on roast pork, sausage on a stick, roasted chicken, dim sum, fish, mixed vegetable, noodles, white rice, soup, pickled sea weed, sliced fruits, pastries, etc and drank fountain soda. On the street during the day there were food stalls. The best was Chicken Butterfly, that had golden-brown fried breaded chicken parts, at various prices from 7 pesos (about 15 cents) for neck to 30 pesos (about 60 cents) for breast.

Good clubs were Sisters, which was next to the Black Hole on Mango Street, and Temptation, which was about 50 meters down the street after you take a right at the gasoline station on the corner. Easy walking between the two clubs. A beer at Sisters cost 60 pesos (about $1.20) and at Temptation cost 50 pesos (about $1). My favorite place was the Cobra Bar, a second-floor club with a pool table on the first floor, located on Frutoso Ramos about a block pass the Holiday Plaza away from the Midtown. On the glass entrance door of Cobra was a poster for Rev's Driving School, a name more suited for race driving. Imagine a slogan for this place like drink, drive, and shoot pool. A beer cost 60 pesos (about $1.20) which included the price of the entertainment. It was a small place, but audience participation was allowed since a 300-pound German guy in liderhosen with a whale belly got up and showed off his dance moves in competition with a female performer, who looked almost like a dwarf dancing next to the G-man. Other optional costs related to a companion generally ranged around 700 pesos for the club and 1,000 to 1,500 pesos for extras.

In a club, I met Juanita who was 20 year old, single, and had been working there for a year. She was medium size with a firm build, luscious tatas and lavish booty, and a Spanish cast to her Polynesian looks and long eyelashes. Dream of long-haired island girl in grass skirt with castanets in hands. Having visited Buenos Aires (by the way, attended one of Jackson's thanksgiving dinners), I am partial to the Latin look and found the Latin-flavored Cebu girls to be attractive in a darkish flavor. Being a 50-plus pudgy, below-average looking guy on a budget, I felt especially fortunate to be the attention of a young girl in spite of the competition of all the other guys, most were lean studs in their 30s from Australia and Europe and their bulging pockets with enough money to buy lots of lady drinks (around 150 pesos or $3). Truth be said, I had not been with a girl for a long time and had some misgivings on whether I could perform or not. Guys tell that it is like riding a bicycle, in that you never forget and your body will remember how.

As I gazed into Juanita's beautiful dark eyes and we embraced in my hotel room, I had this feeling that she was the right one for me. This feeling was tripled when her soft lips and mouth tenderly massaged my bare fob of throb. Looking back, I recognized my feeling was tainted with long-term abstinence. Without thinking after donning protection, I grasped her upper arms like bike handles and positioned myself missionary-wise. Then a moment of panic hit me. How could I pedal if I was on both my knees? I was ready to launch, but did not know where to go. It was like reving up a car engine, but it would not kick start into action. I tried rocking from one knee to the other knee to sort of simulate pedaling a bike. It was no help. Juanita gave me an odd look of what is this guy doing. Finally, she grabbed me and we were doing it. I looked at her laying on her back and saw that she was pumping her legs up and down alternately. Now I understood what went wrong. The trick to riding a bicycle was for me to be the bicycle and let her do the riding.

Luckily, I found her hot spot. It was a vampiric kiss to the side of her neck. All I can say about my kiss is that eating Chicken Butterfly neck was good practice for doing it. As she approached her pinnacle, I felt a moment of pride. Such moments were, of course, indoctrinated by American feminists that a decent man should give priority to his woman and that his satisfaction means nothing unless she has her satisfaction regardless of his. After years of such indoctrination, I could not help but feel pride like Captain Ahab standing on a peg leg atop the bridge of his ship the Herman Melville as he spied the great white whale raising its head above the ocean waves. Thar she blows.

I did a good job, because Juanita said it was good and even gave me a pet native name, Ling. Her exact words when she pinocled were, good-Ling good-Ling. Afterwards, Juanita said she had to leave. But, I said you committed to staying with me for three hours until 3 am when the club closes and when you had to return home to your parents. She said that she had to return to the club to check out before it closes. I said there were still another two hours for that and time enough for an encounter of a second kind. She said that I could return to the club for her tomorrow for seconds.

Wondering if we would ever meet again, I reached for my camera and took her photo. She told me to not show her photo to my friends. I said that would make you my secret girl friend. She asked increduously with disbelief you want a girl friend who works in a club? I had not seriously consider having her as a girl friend meaning a serious relationship, but at the same time I was seriously subconsciously hoping for her to become my girl friend meaning a regular companion for at least the time I was there and maybe then some. The best I could respond at that moment was to say was my girl friend would no longer be a companion to other guys at least in a biological sense. When I said this, I started to stutter and mumble and silently called myself a blithering idiot.

The next day, I pondered what was said, what could be done, and future possibilities. I walked around Cebu trying to clear my head and encountered a building under construction, the Crown Plaza Hotel. A sign sign said something about a model available for viewing, so I walked up the driveway which led to a second building in back of the first building. There was a sales office for Club Ultima which offered membership for a sports club, restaurant, and second hotel and with club membership the possibility to buy a condo in a third building starting about $50,000 for a basic unit of 50 square meters without flooring or fixtures. No details were given on its web site of the same name, because it was in the pre-selling (the sales lady pronounced it pray-sa-lyn) phase with prices to increase next week and almost two-thirds of the 300 condo units already sold with construction to be completed in three years. I wondered if I were to buy a condo, would it impress Juanita? Would she wait three years or longer for installation of the flooring, fixtures, and interior design for furniture and decorations? Was learning how to ride a bicycle again worth these mental ups and downs?

I guess I better close this note. I hope it provides some new information for dudes interested in this city and maybe a facet of personal experiences.

Stand In (on a corner and watching all the girls go by).
Stand In (a substitute for somebody else)

[b][u]EDITOR'S NOTE[/u]:[/b] [blue]I certainly hope that the author or somebody else will post a link to this report in the Reports of Distinction thread.[/blue]

After spending about 12 of the past 24 months here i am behaving in a way I never imaginged. Charlie Shean was asked (this is the young Shean, the guy who was in Platoon) why he would pay for sex when so many girls would love to be with him for free. His responce was something to the effect of....because when it's all over I say a friendly good bye or do what I like.... The idea of the CONVENIENCE of going with a girl from a bar is just a luxury I can't seem to pass up. My time is limited. I have to be discreet. I should stick with having a girl friend or two when I'm here. But being 100% in control because I'm paying means I don't have to have commitiments a relationiship would require. For those commitments, I have a real someone in the US.

I'll never forget a girl I hooked with in Thailand about 10 years ago. She was a godess in so many ways. While in Bangkok I wouldn't dream of going with another girl. i bar fined her pretty much every night I was there as I recall.

But now somehow age has made me into someone that likes a new partner every time I go out to get laid (my age is 34-43, sorry to be vague). It's pretty crazy. I've been with so many girls from bars in Cebu now. At least 50. Why go fishinig for someone new when the prior week you found a gold nugget? There's just something about that first time that is somehow so much more amazing than it used to be.

As far as other posts about non pros. Guys, don't be ass holes and lead chicks on in a big way just so you can fuck 'em and leave 'em. Obviously, we can't always share the 100% reality, but don't promise you'll spend your month vacation with someone and take them to Borocay just so you can get past kissing and get fucked for 20 minutes. That is not a conquest...that is someone who is a simple coward and MAJOR loser.

I remember "pressuring" someone to fuck me here who was not a pro when we where just lieing in bed. What sucks is that catholic girls always say "no, no, no!" and sometime they mean it and sometimes they don't. This girl I refer to got all emotionally fucked after we had great sex. i was the first time in 1.5 years or something (maybe first since she split with her ex) and her catholic guilt that it was just casual caused her trauma afterwords.

So read your tea leaves well. I used to spend a lot more time meeting girls in Cebu on the Web. It's easy to get laid, but you never know if someone's good to go until you spend some time. I don't have the extra time to hang out with someone who's not exactly my type personality wise but who's a 9 that I know would at least LIKE to fuck me if some mental/religeous issue weren't getting in her way.

Some people like the game of "will she go for it".... all the way from a first meeting to when you're sitting on a couch just kissing. It's definately great once you score and you know she's into it (although in any case I haven't been with a bar girl that didn't get all wet and worked up because I happen to be the look and personality that they like here in Cebu).

If you have the time THIS IS THE PLACE TO DO IT. That's the bottom line with non pros here. If you want to get laid with little effort and with someone that's 4 times better looking then someone you could sleep with if you're from the US or Europe, this is truly the place to do it! But unless you are an asshole out to fuck a girl mentally so that you can fuck her physically, there is still work involved.

If you come to Cebu and it's new to you don't ever forget this is a very Catholic place! More so than up north. People follow "tradition" more here than in the north I think it's fair to say. But I think it's fair to say that all that has changed a lot over just even the last 10 years.

Far more girls are willing to lose their virginity before marraige then was the case 10 years ago (most are now). Casual sex is far more acceptable than it used to be.

last thought. If you don't want to waste a non pros time and your's, think about every little clue you can to find out if the OPTION is even open for her to sleep with you after a couple (or one) date. How "religeous" is she? Ask her in a very tactful what she thinks about another girl that would sleep with a guy after a couple dates. I've spent a few too many times with 9s that show with their eyes and bodies that they want to jump my bones only to later discover they CAN'T because of "what's right" to them or because they are determined to be virgins when they marry. In some of those cases I could have found out much sooner that it would not lead to anything involving sex.

I can answer most any question about Cebu. Cebu Local is still my hero on this thread (don't know when he was last posting on here). I like the way he thinks-- smart dude, I like his attitude, and he knows all about Cebu. Many of his old posts are STILL spot-on.

But i don't mind throwing in some answers to questions as long as the answers are not strewn around this thread!!! So many questions get asked 10 times! There is a wealth of info on here. Things really have not changed much with girls here in the last 2 years.

Here's a tip which does need some verification from someone else on here. If you're looking for freelancers...very good looking I would say...2 hot spots for that over the last year have been the upscale bar on the right of the enterence of Ayala entertainment where you may see a group of three or 4 girls. If you look their way they will make it VERY obvious they are up for pay to play.

the 2nd: there is a darkish spot you can stand in front of Starbucks also at Ayala entertainment enterence. A few girls will also stand there and when you walk by will make it obvious they are looking for pay for play.

Best time for this is usually 7-8PM roughly.

Sad to say, I don't know how much of the time these are the same chicks. They SEEM to be usually the same because they have in common that they are tall with super bodies. I know one group of girls that do look for guys in these places are from another island where there are very few tourists. They come to Cebu to make some extra money. I've never actually gone with any of them but have spoken.

To make matters confused, the guys that are lady boys will also hang at the bar that i mentioned. I've seen plenty there and they are obviously not girls and they try to follow me.

But the crazy thing is sometimes I think some of the girls that I mentioned are lady boys!!! In Thailand it is said that sometimes these guys do such a good job that you really can't even tell. I'm always looking for the adams apple on the girls I mention because at least one of them usually look quite hot, an 8-9. I really don't think, I'm almost sure, they are NOT lady boys! But THAT is a question I would love for others to answer if they know.

Wander, Your post was quite good, Thailand is "The place" for finding your own goddess, however, these girls are more Mercinary IMHO than the average Filipina. You also mention Ladyboys in Cebu, you are correct about the venue aroudn Starbucks Ayala, I have also seen a troupe of "lady boys" who were working out of an alley across from the Sunflower. They were showing up around closing time hoping to lure a drunk into their web. This said, I personally think there is a WORLD of difference in determining the "Thai" Ladyboys Vs. the Filipino version. The Thai version can be VERY hard to tell at times, many have plastic surgery, breast enhancements, contacts, nose jobs etc. The Filipino version IMHO look like men dressed up like women, a clue for the half drunk and unsuspecting is some "girl" dressed to fashion, more so than your average street walker or "freelancer" looking "good" from a distance, but up close the clues become obvious as you mentioned.

Now for the verification. I beleive the club you are talking about in Ayala entertainment section is RATSKYs. The girls usually hang around out front near the coffee shop or the bar near the entrance so they dont have to pay the entrance fee while up potentials. There are several reasons why RATSKYS may be "it" lately.

Sunflower has increased its entrance fee from P100 to P150 on the weekends and "ladies night" (Thursday) is no longer free. The ladies pay and get a free beer. So a lot of them are going to Ratskys which has no cover on weekdays and (I beleive) P100 friday/Sat.

Freelancers can also been seen at Starbucks outside and at some of the "outside" bars just down the stairs to the right as you go out the front entrance. One place down there (cant rememeber the name) has a gutarist playing, the girls like this uy as he plays all their fav requests while they eye up potentials strolling about.

Cebu has always had a reputation as being ultra conservative catholic, this is the CENTER of Filipino Catholicism... where it started Ala Sto Nino, many Filipinos have a goal in lif eto mnake a pilgrimage to this city to visit the Catherdral and pray to image for a favor. Also IMHO women in the Phils are more into conservatism and respectibility more so than Catholicism, the girls dont want a "reputation" being seen consorting with foreigners, and they want a husband who will support them and help them take care of their families, even the freelancers. They also beleive foreigners looking for spouse material want a lady who is not "used" so much.

Hey guys,

I'm planning a week to 10 day vacation to PI. I live in Shanghai China. Perpose of the vac is the usual girl fun, ocean water fun, and make some contacts for possible future PI gf. Been in China for a few years and may have to stay for several more, and don't want China gf. Im thinking of importing a Thai, or Philipina. So, would Cebu be the place? Few days in Manilla the Cebu? Also does anyone know of a good web-site for chatting with them?

Any information would be much appreciated,

Smitt

Avoid Thai's at all costs for wife material, my opinion only after living in that country for eight months. Great for sex but closer in philiosophy and logic to Chinese you seem to be disillusioned with. Cebu is a great place to meet women and it has an international airport. I beleive Cathay has some good airfares from HK and Shanghai (if I remember) directly here avoiding Manila (A good idea). A few nice tourist destinations close by like Bohol and Bantayan Island.

I think Filipina heart is still the rage, I hear bad things about cherry blossoms, lots of lady boys posing as stunners, etc. Good idea to chat a few of the ladies up and coordinate for your upcoming trip. I would also get a Phils sim pack for your cell phone if you can, having a mobile with a Phils number is a great mongering aide.

good luck

Hi,

I'm new to the forum. I've been to Cebu a couple of times already and going next week again for business. I tend to flock to upscale G Clubs while living in Thailand and love Arenas in Cebu. The midget shows, singers and girls are great! Does anyone know of any KTVs like Arenas in Manila or Cebu where the girls are young, fun, upbeat? I've been to Pegasus in Manila and felt it was for older Asian businessmen and alittle dark and boring.

Cheers and thanks!

I go fairly often to Makati for business, and sometimes take a side trip for fun. Last time I tried El Nido Lagen in Palawan, but of course I had to bring a girl with me since there is no action there.

This time I am thinking of going to Cebu, but hooking up with different Cebuana girls while there. I have already contacted a bunch on dating sites that want to meet me, so I don't need to be close to bars. So, I want the most upscale place that is also relatively easily accessible to a girl that lives in Cebu City. I would go for the Shangrila Mactan, but I am worried that Lapu-Lapu Island is hard for Cebu City girls to get to. From perusing here and elsewhere, the Waterfront Hotel seems to be one of the best choices right in the city. Do folks here agree? Is it girl-friendly (no questions asked)? What about the Alegre Beach Resort: is that close enough for local girls to get to? Any other suggestions? Price is not an issue -- I want the nicest place possible that is also convenient for local girls to meet me.

On a related note, what are the best resources for day trips for snorkeling, diving, island hopping, etc?

Thanks!


PS Attached are two pics of the girl that I brought to El Nido Lagen (on an island hopping trip).

I stayed at the Waterfront in Lahug in April. It is a very good hotel with very good restaurants. When I was checking in and registering at the front desk the woman there asked if I was alone, I said I wasn't sure yet. She laughed and put down two people. She did that for the included morning breakfasts. I think it was the same rate either way. I brought back two girls on seperate nights. The first girl and I walked in no one stopped us. I think security just missed us. The second girl had to register at the front desk. Neither of the bargirls had been there before and both seemed impressed. It is a five star hotel. Better then the five star Heritage Hotel I stayed at in Manila.

Just bring your own bottled water. The hotel only stocked small bottles of Evian and when looking at my bill later saw they were around 4 usd each.

I arrived here on Friday night, dropped the bags and headed out.

I was at the Midtown Hotel the first night, then moved over to the Marriott the next afternoon. Both are guest friendly. Midtown is falling apart and really needs maintenance bad. I only stayed there one night because Marriott was full.

So first I went to Silver Dollar. I always have a blast here and this night was no exception. This was even though, JM, my usualy squeeze and tormentor here, was out for the night. But there were several other demented babes to take her place. I don't know why this place is always so darn much fun even though I never barfine here. After about an hour of pretend humping on the barstool with one girl I headed out to Mango Avenue.

First I went to Sisters Bar. I had intended to bar hop but I got no further than this bar. Stand in I also reported this place was good and I have to agree. Even though it was a busy Friday night and lots of girls were taken there were still several other hot bodied lookers available. I was told this place has only been open a couple of months. After buying a few lady drinks (170 each I think?) I finally decided to go home with Daphne. She's about 4-11, 85 pounds, silky long hair....mmmm I may have to go back for her again. The barfine was 1800. I decided to give her an extra thousand. She was worth it.

I've been meeting internet chat girls the last couple of days but I hope to get out to the naughty scene again a time or two.

Marriott has the best breakfast, but small rooms and worst pool, Midtown has larger rooms more space, also good mall down stairs. Also don't have to register girl. But there is no one to stop unwanted guests in both places. Marriott has much better gym. Have not tried Waterfront.

My two cents rates Cebu waterfront as the best for a few reasons, first it is centrally located, close to everything, second there is a lot to do there, impress the hell out of your lady, take her into casino Filipino and give her P500 pesos to play slots with, big deal, she'll love it! Also they have some very good food there buffets etc, bread. I've been to Shangri la on Mactuan and it is nice. great buffet nice ammenities but this was my honeymoon, I consider it a bit out of the way IMHO for any type of mongering. Security is tight at Waterfront, however, there are VERY girl friendly. You can always take her to the Casino,(2 nd floor) then sneak her over to the elevators if anybody gives you a problem.

If you are looking for something to do why not check out either Bohol which is two hours by jet boat (GREAT diving snokeling whale watching etc). Or if your feeling a bit adventurous try getting on the bus to Bantayan island or Malapasqua. Was at Malapasqua not long ago, reminds me of Boracay 6 years ago. Once again great snorkel, scuba and you can go feed sharks (seriously) Not much in the way of mongering best to bring your own, im sure some Cebu lady would be eager to show you the way out there. I know you aren't concerned with price but the hotels there are cheap (everything is) find out wher ethe diver are staying, lots of interesting types in the evening at the watering holes.

REBOUND, as a former Bangkok monger now reformed I must say the the Phils, particularly cebu has Nothing to equal the insanity of the live shows ala patpong. Best you can get here is some strip acts, dancing etc. But no pussy firing darts or that sort of thing. They advertise some KTV's on the Cebu cable channel which feature "shows" (read strip acts) or maybe some gal who strips and rubs lotion on herself but thats about it.

Good luck.

i don't really know enough about thai girls althogh i've been there quite a bit. i think my experience was just a matter of the fact that you can only compare "this ethnic/cultural group to that" to a certain degree. some women in the countries men hate most, are opposite to their peers.

i will just never forget this girl in thailand.

i don't get out to the clubs much these days. i think others should listen to what you say. there was a lot of info on here about where to pick up freelancers, even "new" freelancers trying for a few times to make some dough, but it is indeed dated. it is still a mystery about these girls that hang out in the shadows near starbucks ayala. you are spot on that in the cebu it is much more obvious. so they are the real thing. there are some filipinos that look more of a chiseled look which from a distance can look more masculine. that's even more true of thai's. some are very attractive. the only venue i was referring to is the small bar tries to look uber hip and is directly on your left when walking into ayala entertainment. girls sit at the little tables there and are freelancers.

very well put. it's true a lot of the girls will "put out" easily, but wow it is so catholic here. it's amazing when you read the profiles on filipina heart. so many of them are into "fear god", an idea i hate.

i actually just went out with super winner today from online. she knows i'm married but here most of the year. she hasn't let on if she's open to more than friends...i don't think she knows. i would dis-allow the bars for her if it comes to it. i have so little time for the courting proccess. i'm going to make the time though because i'm tired of spending so much money on bar girls. i have to say if money was of no concern, it's a pretty incredible thing to skrew 4 different 8s (sometimes a 9) per week. i've been at 2-3 nights a week with different bar girls lately.

hotels......don't stay on mactan if you want to meet girls there. waterfront cebu is best if you can afford or can get a good deal. there's not a heck of a lot to do in cebu if you're on vaca. however, if you find your honey (from bar, internet, etc.) there are plenty of fun places to hang out. not a lot to do if you're just with friends from home or on your own. it's having that super hottie with you that makes the difference if you're hanging out in the city during the day.

i would say find that girl in cebu, then once you've spent some time (even just a couple days) and you like her enough, invite her to go with you to one of the places mentioned below...a beach destination. you might even mention as you meet that you are hoping to go to xyz island next week when if you think they have potencial as your guest.

oh, and about "guest" policies in cebu? forget it. i've stayed at maybe 10 hotels here for 1 of the past 2 years. i have never had a problem of any sort nor has the girl that was with me.

A nice little bit of Filipiniana occurred last night. The girl that I've been seeing here suggested we have dinner with her parents. I thought that sounded fine. So we waited at Ayala Mall to take them to Majestic Chinese restaurant. Of course they were an hour late, which is expected. But the main thing that happened, which didn't really surprise me either but amused me nonetheless, is that the parents showed up with pretty much the entire household in tow. 3 siblings of my girl were there, all of whom are unemployed and seem to have no talents other than making babies that they can't support. 3 of said children were also along for the ride. So that made a total of 8 adults and 3 kids, all on the tab of yours truly. Did anyone ever ask me if this was ok, clear it in advance or anything like that. Of course not. There was only the slightest bit of sheepishness when the bill was presented, but that soon passed. I can laugh about it because it was only 1600 pesos, about $30. But it was a real refresher course on the mentality here. I've been out with girls in many countries and this ONLY happens here.

I think part of the reason for this was that the father knows that I'm mounting his daughter daily and nightly, so he decided to get some financial mileage out of it.

In other news:

About the hotels mentioned, I've stayed several times at most of them.

Midtown: Has an expat 'bargain' of $50 including breakfast. Breakfast is just adequate. Rooms are rundown and need renovation. In fact the whole place could stand to be blown up and redone, if they could manage to do it without falling down on the mall down below. The pool is laughably small. Last I checked the gym had old equipment but was slowly improving. I forgot to look at it a couple of days ago.

Marriott: This is my first choice usually. Lately it's been about 75-85 breakfast included. Breakfast is very good. Rooms are pretty good with nice views. The pool is mediocre as someone mentioned. The gym here is pretty good. Great location next to Ayala Mall and it's nighttime entertainment center including Ratsky's. Also there's a Cafe Havana here. It's a short taxi ride to most other things a monger wants.

Waterfront Lahug: Usually it costs a few dollars more than Marriott. I last stayed here in August last year and it was showing signs of neglect in the room. Stuff was missing. Cigarette burns in towels and bedding, stuff like that. Breakfast is very good. The gym is good also but they charge for its use even for guests, something like 200-300. The best thing here is the pool, lots of volume and lots of deck space. The majestic lobby and casino are there also but these never interested me much. It's walking distance to Sunflower disco. Across from the entrance is a complex of mostly open air restaurants and bars that's a good place to look for freelancers. Freelancers also hang out at Waterfront but they move around a lot, probably harrassed occasionally by security. Last time I was there they were hissing at me from the balcony just above the elevators. I wasn't tempted.

Never at any of these three places have I ever had guest issues or even once had a girl asked for an ID or questioned in any way whatsoever.

Finally, there's a new luxury hotel apartment kind of place going up near Midtown. The entrance is practically next door to the Silver Dollar club, whose owner must be positively rubbing his hands in gleeful anticipation. The building is called Club Ultima. The actual hotel there is a Crown Regency. It seems to have soft opened but I haven't found out about rates or anything yet. I could see the gym from my room at Midtown on Friday night and it looks pretty flash. This could become a new favored monger base

Makhu: Your description of dinner reminds me of my wedding reception; my ex-wife had "relatives" show up that she did not even know she had. When folks hear that a foreigner is paying, EVERYBODY wants to join the party. We had several hundred! The good news it still only ran a couple grand total.

Spamhog: met several nice ones on Cherryblossoms who do not seem like baklas. I had not heard that baklas posing as babae was common. Reminder to self: INSIST on seeing webcam BEFORE going agreeing to a meeting LOL!

Re the "god fearing" thing, I swear 50% of them have "god fearing" or "god centered' in their profiles. This usually results in them being striken from my list of possibles (as does residence anywhere near Manila or Angeles-the clever ones write Dau or Mabalacat or San Fernando or something and I have yet to find one that actually fesses up to living in Balibago!).

Gentlemen,

One invited, all invited is Philippine style. They do it among themselves as well. They are not hitting you up. It is part of their informal ways. Lighten up. It is really quite charming when you loosen up and accept it. If your wallet is limited, or you have a limited amount of tickets to the show, let your girfriend know beforehand. No one else will show up unless she has a chaperone. Knowing you guys, she needs one.

[QUOTE=Joking]Invitee bringing along long chain of inlaws to the Restaurant also happens in Thailand. Be forwarned.[/QUOTE]

This time I visited the moocher family at their house and got a homecooked meal out of it. But lest I thought that there was any amends to be made I then was honored to pay for all the beer that we subsequently drank during the inevitable singalong. Oh well, at least I'm seeing the local culture.

Other findings:

Checked out some of the other places over a couple of nights around Mango Avenue...

Exotica: Pretty much cleaned out at 1:30 am.

Dimples: Very tempted here. Barfine was 2000 plus the mamasan said I should give 750 to the gal....I passed.

Black Hole: Still down after it's long slide from being the place to be a few years ago. Not attracted to anything whatsoever here. The time was about 1 am so there may have been some barfines out.

The downstairs bar...Viking or BC or something like that? Found a real hottie here but it was past 3 am and I knew in my condition I wouldn't get value out of it. I may head back another night. The barfine here is 1700.

Exactly right Snake 12. They are not taking advantage because you are a foreigner. It is acccepted in Phil that if you invite someone that they will bring anyone else who fancies coming along!

I know it takes some getting used to.

After having dinner with Cebu Local, I decided to check around Lapu Lapu. It's been quite a few years since I've looked around here. I've could have called CL for advice, but I decided to fly by the seat of my pants, with predictable results. After about an hour of fruitless wandering I headed back to town and Silver Dollar.

I shot a few games of pool with JM, always good for a laugh. Then as I was lining up for a shot I had one of those 'hold everything' moments. I saw this girl, about 4 ft. 10 (148cm) and easily 36 up front with not much fat anywhere. This girl would probably be about the same height horizontal or vertical. Face is average but who cares?

Bianca would eventually bring to and end my long streak of not barfining at Silver Dollar. She was sitting with another guy at first but inexplicably this guy chose to go out with another girl. I finally got next to Bianca and she turned out to be an intelligent conversationalist as well.

The bar fine was 700. We headed back to the Marriott, the security guys all stopped in their tracks and almost forgetting to do their jobs. Bianca was just about top of the scale in everything. Attitude, technique, looks. I gave her 1500 afterwards but she probably deserved more. If anyone sees her there definitely take her out. The thing is she is understandably often booked by mongers for extended trips to Boracay, Bohol, etc. So you'll probably have to time it just right if you want to see her.

Hi Gents,

Planning my next trip to Cebu in and around December.

Since Metropolis has changed name (to Crown Regency) and raised their price, I am in search of a new hotel to stay for about a week during that time.

I am leaning towards either Golden Peak or Crowne Garden.

Does any one know if these hotels are guest friendly?
Which would you choose out of the two?
What's a good rate for these hotels (I'm hoping Cebu Local would have some insight into this)

Thanks folks.

Hope to meet up with some of you in December.

Mahku,

When I visited Club Ultima a month ago (see my trip report if interested in my experiences), it was the building behind Crown Regency. The Club Ultima building was completed with some interior work to be done and a Chinese restaurant already opened and operating on about the 20th floor. The club building contained its own hotel, which was supposed to be separate from Crown Regency. The latter was the building fronting the street and was still under construction. If a hotel is opened, then it would be the club's. But, all three buildings (the third is to be started and will be the mall-offices-condo building) are supposedly owned by the same Cebu family.

I was trying to figure out the financial setup of club plus hotel plus condo and one reason might be that the Philippines law restricts property ownership by non-citizens to 60 percent. Yet the condo saleslady told me that about 65 percent of the condo units had already been sold to foreigners, although many were Filipinos living and working in US.

I would recommend you check out the Marco Polo Cebu. It's just opened after a total rennovation. I haven't stayed, but would guess that it would surpass the Waterfront now in terms of quality.

So where is the marcopolo. is it the building beside the sm mall. there is also a parklane hoyel being built somewhere.

Just had a fantastic week in Cebu. The first four nights were spent at Arenas with the son of a guy I'm doing business with in Cebu. He and I are both in our early thirties and Jordan (the midget) and Joe (the singer) partied along side together at the club. On the fourth night, I met a stunning part-timer to Arenas. She only works 2 nights a month to pay tuition. She was hands down the best looking girl there (a 9.5 by my filipino business associate's son standards.)

Since it was Saturday night, she agree to come along for our scuba dive the next day. My business associate has a lovely house on an island and a boat to get us there. She brought three nonbargirl uni-girlfriends along. The next day and a hlaf were fantastic. Scuba diving and partying at the beach house with 4 girls and 2 guys.

I will post some pics in the future if anyone is interested.

i was told the midget was a bukla.

Hello Rebound,

Welcome to the forum. By all means post at will. We want to find out what a 9.5 filipina looks like by filipino standards!

Excelsior!

[QUOTE=Asiafloyd]So where is the marcopolo. is it the building beside the sm mall. there is also a parklane hoyel being built somewhere.[/QUOTE]Marco Polo is in Nivel Hills, Lahug area. I think further west of Waterfront. Formerly called Cebu Plaza.

Has no one stayed at with hotel?

Anyone recommend a reliable, hygienic hair removal, bikini wax, etc, salon in Cebu?

Thanks

Diver 69,

Pal be patient. You have until December and the hotels are slow that time of year in Cebu. This is from a guy who has been in Cebu 12 of the last 14 years during the month of December and usually around New Year's. Unlike Thailand with the ton of European guys descending there at that time, Cebu is not crowded.

I arrive in Cebu in a few days. I intend to check out the Marco Polo and Waterfront near Ayala Mall as alternative places to stay. I have too much pussy in Cebu to stay at only one Hotel anymore. I need to change every few days unless I keep my arrival quiet. I should be able to post for you in 7-10 days on this.

I met some awesome cebu pussy online the other day. It was early morning here and I had not showered yet so I had only a robe on. She told me she was getting excited viewing my hairy chest and strong body. She began to remove all her clothes and give me a view of her pussy as she masturbated. Cost to me was my time watching.

Diver you are missing a great time this trip. My son's mother has invited plenty of women to the parties for my son. I might even have to sneak back to my room and fuck one of the Guests just to keep my reputation as a "fucking good host".

In a side matter, I got a little bored working today and began to surf through a website for meeting filipinas. Decided just for fun to check out the 25-32 range women (I usually stick to the 18-25 group as they are usually the horniest). I found my son's mother there wearing two very sexy outfits and a third shot of her in the Hospital. The lady looks hot but again she always did except after gving birth (gained a lot of weight in the last term; lost it since). I will have to ask her how she is doing on the site when we talk.

I will PM you with my findings next week.

Dragon Slayer

There might be a lack of hotel rooms in 2nd week of December.

[url]http://www.sunstar.com.ph/static/ceb/2006/07/14/news/us.not.expected.in.summit.html[/url]

i stayed in cebu last weekend. can't report on the club action as i did nothing but girls i met on the internet who were from there. if you are into paying them to leave, this may not be your thing, the girls can get a bit clingy. especially if they fall in love with you. but it is dang easy to find internet girls who will put out and give you a gfe experience while you're at it. i did take one girl to sunshine disco last night, that's not a bad place to take someone you've already picked up elsewhere. the light show is a bit much, but you can dance there.

other more touristy items of note:

stayed at the crown regency residency suites. if i rtff correctly, this was the former metropole. it is seemingly way out there in the guadalupe area, but osmena circle is a 50pp taxi ride away so not too bad. well there's a bit of construction work here, evidently they seem to be trying to make a convention center out of this place. i got a rather large room, but the amenities were not all that. the list price for the room was $60/usd which is about what i paid (3200pp/night). i think this room was definitely not worth that price. though they did include the airport transfer round trip and breakfast.

last add crown regency: no internet in the room, have to go to the business center during daytime hours. lousy pricing there. good alternative if you have your own laptop is to go up the street to j-tech internet cafe. looks rundown as heck, but the guy was happy to provide a place with an ethernet cable and a power outlet, and the connection speed was acceptable. if you just need a terminal and are not particular, then brownstone is ok and closer. it's in the same building as the local supermarket.

i was going to take one honey to malapascua, but there was a typhoon off china that was causing sufficiently choppy seas that she didn't want to experience. so we stayed near the white beach resort which is near moalboal. it was ok, but would have been much better if i was into diving which is what this area is set up for. turned out the weather was much better on sunday, the sun actually came out and stayed out for a long time. a rarity at this time of year, i'm told.

[QUOTE=Dragon Slayer]Diver 69,

Pal be patient. You have until December and the hotels are slow that time of year in Cebu. This is from a guy who has been in Cebu 12 of the last 14 years during the month of December and usually around New Year's. Unlike Thailand with the ton of European guys descending there at that time, Cebu is not crowded.

I arrive in Cebu in a few days. I intend to check out the Marco Polo and Waterfront near Ayala Mall as alternative places to stay. I have too much pussy in Cebu to stay at only one Hotel anymore. I need to change every few days unless I keep my arrival quiet. I should be able to post for you in 7-10 days on this.

I met some awesome cebu pussy online the other day. It was early morning here and I had not showered yet so I had only a robe on. She told me she was getting excited viewing my hairy chest and strong body. She began to remove all her clothes and give me a view of her pussy as she masturbated. Cost to me was my time watching.

Diver you are missing a great time this trip. My son's mother has invited plenty of women to the parties for my son. I might even have to sneak back to my room and fuck one of the Guests just to keep my reputation as a "fucking good host".

In a side matter, I got a little bored working today and began to surf through a website for meeting filipinas. Decided just for fun to check out the 25-32 range women (I usually stick to the 18-25 group as they are usually the horniest). I found my son's mother there wearing two very sexy outfits and a third shot of her in the Hospital. The lady looks hot but again she always did except after gving birth (gained a lot of weight in the last term; lost it since). I will have to ask her how she is doing on the site when we talk.

I will PM you with my findings next week.

Dragon Slayer[/QUOTE]

Thanks DS.

Look forward to your findings. I just read finrod's report - 3200 pesos at Metropolis? They sure have gone up in price.

BTW, read your lousy experience with some of the women. Sorry to hear they are so stupid. But then again, I am not surprised.

Also had a laugh (at your expense) when I read about your son's mother on the dating website. You give her hell!

Cheers.

From reading the last few pages I put together that the Marriot, and the Water Front Hotel are the ok places to go. Price is no problem, but I realy don't need all that fluff. Any 30 to 50 USD hotel in the same area? I am looking at a package deal on Mactan, but it sounds too far out of the action...right. Im comig during the Chinese national holiday (Cct 1-7th), does anyone know if that time is crowded? Lastly I have heard several references to internet chatting with the girls, can anyone recomend a site to use?

Thanks again guy,

Smitt

Hi Eddie I have to disagree I had dinner with a department of Tourism director last night and Chinese tourists to PI have gone up 50% compared to last year.The casino hotels already have large bookings for Chinese groups.We charge higher during Chinese year,Hong Kong people tend to fill up Shangrila and Plantation Bay.He has to book early.Mactan Waterfront and Days Hotel is not too far from action.This is the area around the airport,But the beach resorts are at least 30 minutes from anything.Hope this helps Cheers

Fest Eddie, When I was in Boracay in June (the off season) I saw plane loads of Chinese (Taiwan) and Korean tourists. The general concenious I hads was that Boracay and the Philippines in General was being heavily promoted in those countries as a cheap tourist destination particularly csince it was "off season".

As far as Cebu goes there is a distinctive Chinese Flavor here with a heavy Chinese Filipino Community that tends to promote Chinese Holidays (Chinese new year corresponds closely with SINULOG festival in late January if I remeber correctly.)

I have seen LOTS of chinese tourists lately, if one goes to Casino Filipino you will notice that many of the game tables (Mah Jong & Fan Tan) cater to them (and Koreans) while only one blackjack table exists.

Northwinds is quite cheap, I have gotten rooms there for P1000 problem is the place is usually fully booked wekends as it is popular with Filipino's during the wedding season (Now).

Look into the Richmond and Castle peak for decent rooms centrally located in the P1200 to P1400 range.

Off topic by the way but there may be something to this cross toruism promotional as Cebu Air is now offering special introductory low fares (P1999) one way out of Cebu to HK or Some other pioluar cites in Mainland China through October flying direct out of Cebu international.


Good luck

Hi,

Im Kevin from Australia me and my family (wife & kids) fly 2ce a year to Mactan Philippines.

So now my report:

1. Here is also a smal open air restaurant named DIONES owner Cowie a good guy with high prices can chillout with musik and their place is ok.

2. There is also a small resto named HEIDELBERG but i think its not very known.

3. A place where you should never go is CADILLAC-CAFE beside the DOc Hospital. I am so pist off from that place: their cheatet me with my bills and i heard thats often! the rooms are over priced! and if you like durty and sick girls go there but ennyway the hospital is beside! you cannot even eat his fucking ribs there shit! taste shit the owner is shit! His buissnes is webside maker and he is a liar and pretender he used to call his own name JOE but its not. His name is NIEL adappting GIRLS and sell it to foreigners but he is pist off if they marry a Philippino.

I dont want to start a fight with the fellow who posted negatively about the Cadillac cafe but if he did have a bad experience in that establishment then something must have gone awray from the three times I visited the places last being about a month ago.

I have previously recommended that place in several posts for the brethern looking for places other than the regular night club/pick up spots in Cebu.
Can't remember the name of the American owner, guy looks like a Biker/willie nelson and is an honest to good god good ol boy from Alabama who makes you feel welcome and IMHOP has done a great job of creating atmospehere of the vanishing american "road house" type of joint.

I was there with Mrs Spamhog of course and we danced a bit to the live band (Filipino) that was pretty decent. I noticed LOTs of single un attached ladies but mostly the place catered to x pats and foreigner/filipina couples. I got the impression that some of the girls weren't "working" for the establishment,but probably freelancers or regular local girls who didn;t want to trek into Cebu.

I saw a few filipiono couples and a few unattached filipinos males who looked liked businessmen types or maybe even local big shots. Crowd was very decent, played pool upstairs, ate a pizza that was pretty good but I must confess I didn;t have the ribs.

The only problem I saw with the place is it is located in lapu-Lapu city which is a bit far. But I would suggets that any one staying in Manduea city/Mactuan check it out if you get tired of the sunflower/ratskys and black hole circuit in Cebu proper.

Good luck

I've never spent much time on Mactan, and there hasn't been much written about places to go there. Can anyone give us a summary?

I've been to a place called Mermaid. They had some really hot ladies, but the bar fine was rather expensive. This place is located on the road that runs perpendicular to the two bridge roads. There were some other places on this road, but never made it inside.

Someone mentioned Cadillac Cafe -- a place I'd never heard of until now.
[url]http://www.cadillac-cafe.com/lodging.php[/url]

I can see from their web site that they rent motor bikes. I've rented scooters in Pattaya and Koh Samui, but never in the Philippines. I wouldn't want to try to ride around urban areas, but exploring Mactan might be interesting.

I know bikes can also be rented at Panglao Bohol. Has anybody done this?

A picture of some of the girls from the ktv club at the watefront hotel.
I did not get a chance to play with these girls.

I did get to play with the good looking mamasan for free. She was awesome. I spend about 10 days trying to convincer to let me fuck her. (It wasn't a matter of money) and right before I left cebu she made my fantasy come true. Now I understand why some guys move to P.I. I wish I could have stay there longer. I will keep in touch with her to see her again.

Hey everyone,

I'm planning a vacation on the 2nd week of Dec for Cebu. I can't seem to find an available hotel from the 10th-15th. Any recommendations that's not part of the regular websites? Shangri-la, Marriots and other hotels are all booked out. And yes, I would like to be on or within walking distance to the beach. Vegging out 1st, ladies 2nd. First vacation in 3-4 years.

Any recommendations with websites would be much appreciated. If I can't find a decent hotel, I would go to the next place on my list, pattaya. TIA.

To X man,

Well I know a perfect place for renting a motorbike. I had one this year in MBS TAVERN in mactan 200cc 700p/Day (24h) I always rent their bikes! Try it! They have german reaturant with special foods and nice apartments for 850/Day ok take care.

Cebu:

Thanks for the info, I have written it down for October. Tried to book flights this week, no directs from HK, had to stay a day in Manila, waited a day and flights everywhere in the region went nuts Thialand too. I figured the Chinese holiday will be a mad house, so Im staying in China. Ill come in October or Christmas. Is one better than the other? I hear Christmas is quite but too quite all girls go home for holiday?

Thanks again,

S Times
you might be out of luck as the asian pacific forum will be in Cebu early december and all decent accomodation would of been booked months ago.

S time, go to Koh Samui.

Just weeks ago it was explained that Cebu iCITY is NOT a beach destination.

Of course neither is Pattaya if you have any common sense.

Think about Subic bay or Puerto galera if you need to "walk to the beach".

That is very correct 3,000 to 4,000 people arriving taking every room they can get.Avoid the Asean Summit

The new bridge may have helped reduce travel time SOMEWHAT, but from Central Cebu (say Fuente) to the beaches on Mactan in 20 minutes would only happen in the middle of the night. My first Filipina GF was from Mandaue and it often took 30 minutes from Mandaue to get to the Mactan beaches. Finally, other than ShangriLa the beaches on Mactan are sosao IMHO. Subic is even WORSE and no way you can call that a beach! Even on the Zambales coast the beaches are mediocre. Puerto Galera is a SMALL bit better (than Sabang is NOT suitable for beach activities at all).

What it appears he REALLY means is beaches with bitches, and White Beach in Boracay is one of the few top caliber beaches with available babae. The GOOD beaches tend to be far from girlie bars.

Thanks everyone. Didn't realize the Asean summit was in Cebu. A friend from PI suggested Boracay or Bohol as a beach destination. The web stuff looks pretty promising. Any suggestions for a nice hotel with extras?

It's about time for a return trip to the RP to save my sanity (some might say "too late"). And I'm finally planning to make it down to Cebu. I'll be around sometime around the 20th of Oct. Anyone that wants to hook up for a beer or to punch me in the mouth may be accomodated.

Sorry all, drinking tonight.

Spent four days in Cebu. Stayed at the Raja (formerly Park Place/Garwood). I stopped staying here a number of years ago because it fell into disrepair, however, the new owners have really cleaned the place up. The rate was 1700single/2000double. If you are going to bring a girl back get the double. They will ask the girl to register, but it is no problem. I was treated with the same courtesy or, that is to say, the staff still respected me in the morning. The rate also includes a buffet breakfast and a foot or back massage (no happy ending). A double room entitles you to breakfast for two, if they do not give it to you ask for it.

Did the Clubs on Mango Ave. The Black Hole has new owners, their appearance is somewhat scary if you fear soccer hooligans. They have brought some new energy to the place, but not much.

Exotica had a nice girl with rather large boobs, however, when I inquired about her I was told that “she did not want to bar-fine tonight.” Guess she is independently wealthy. There was a little more drink pressure than last time. When I did not see anything, other than big boobs, I liked the girls withdrew and pounced on the next customer who entered.

Dimples, Papillion, Love City are the same, tourist traps.

A new bar, Sisters (next to Black Hole), was interesting. It had some really nice women and it was very friendly. However, one night all other male customers were young Filipino guys. We all know where that can go when the alcohol takes affect. Noticed a distinct increase in Filipino male customers at the Black Hole also.

Went to the Silver Dollar which again, for atmosphere, was the best place in Cebu. The girls, albeit not all stunners, were friendly, and so was management. At 9 pm the owner came around to remind everyone to order because happy hour was ending. A real straight up place.

Decided to take a trip down memory lane so I went over to the St. Moritz. I walked in and saw four Filipino guys sitting at the bar. It was a shame because a very lovely lady wanted me to stay. Again, being the only Caucasian in a club late at night is not a good idea.

Before leaving I was told the St. Moritz now offers “short-time” rooms @ 650p for three hours.

Where was that blackjack table? I don't remember seeing it. Or is the Casino broken up into different rooms and I only saw the room with the slot machines?

To think I was there and I missed the card games? Dang!

Hi folks.

Hi CebuLocal,

Can anyone out there give me a good advice where and how to rent a car for a good price in Cebu? I will be soon there again and I am really sick about all the troubles I had before renting cars from neighbours/relatives/friends etc.

CebuLocal

I will be there in October. If you like we can meet there.

Thanks all.

I would advise against renting a car in Cebu. Taxis are everywhere and cheap so why have the hassle?

The fact is that I want to be independent and that I am not staying only in Cebu City. I have to travel to and from other villages. Taxis are mostly not willing to drive outside the city and if so, they ask for crazy amounts or deny the service.

So, I am still waiting for advice.

Thanks

Hi!

Arrived rom Cebu City about a month ago and have to say that it was great. I'm sure to come back asap.

Got a question to you experienced phil travellers: Concerning bargirls AND regular girls, does it make sense to travel to Cebu (& Angeles City since I want to make a short stop-over there) from Christmas to the middle of January?

In a lot of countries it is NOT recommendable to travel during this time, that`s why I am asking. I am not really interested in seeing empty bars with ugly girls and/or going to the bar at 6 pm just to be able to pick up a cutie.

I spent Christmas in Manila and had a great time. I think a lot of working girls are expecting extra tips and gifts because of the holiday. Then I went to Cebu and had relatively few problems finding women. As Cebu L says, there may be fewer than usual.

While in Cebu, I inquired about bars being open New Year's eve. Some would be. This is where you want to be careful. There were few girls in the bars and most bars closed before midnight. Second warning is stay off the streets at midnight on New Yr eve. It's like a war zone. I watched the carnage from the top of Holiday PLaza (the roof was closed for the holiday so I could enjoy the fireworks while feeling up my date). The next day my date and I went to Bohol so I don't know what you could expect the first few days of the year. My guess is that it could be dead.

I would say try to have something steady lined up before New Year's Eve. You've already been to Cebu so I assume you have a few phone numbers.

As for myself, I've a late December "appointment" with a absoluty stunning young lady (22) who happened to work at a hotel I once stayed at. She's assured me her family will go to the province during the holiday which would enable her to spend a few days with me on Borocay or some other place.

I'm really looking forward to it, but I'm also a little wary. This girl is so bright and so hot that I may find my self getting tangled in HER web, rather than the other way around. Wish me luck!

I should be in Either Cebu, Davao or some other southern location around New Yr 2007. Send me a pm with your email and/or phone and maybe we can hunt together.

CL, Will be well gone by then. Should be in Davao by 14th.

Was in Cebu for almost 4 months working recently. Here are some random thoughts. Will add more later:

Middle/upper middle class girls: I really wanted to find a girl friend that made it through a decent college so that we had something in common. I haven't seen others mention this much, but here is the basic stat: girls from "good" or even just "decent" families are 50% virgins going into marriage. I don't know the average age of marraige, but certainly many of the above are gorgeous chicks deprived of receiving pleasure (from me, for example (-: ) up or past the age of 25.

I met a girl a few years out of university who was PERFECT for me and fell for me, but she was a virgin and just didn't quite understand that I couldn't have a virgin girlfriend. Playing with her perfect, sizable, breasts with her shirt off just drove me crazy. Felt like I was 16. Keeping my hand away from her jeans zipper was like someone dangling a steak in front of a dog starved of food for a week.

I don't appreciate Cebu guys' attitude toward woman. The idea of making your wife be a virgin at age 27 is cruel to me since you've been fucking all the POOR girls since being a teen. Yea, everyone can fuck the girls that don't come from families with money. They aren't heald up to that standard as much-- out of necessity.

If you are a Phil guy on isg , maybe you're an exception. But I've decided Phil men have a bad attitute vis a vie woman. In fact, I try not to hire men for my company because woman who are young have such better attitudes and work harder. Don't mean to be too harsh on the guys in Cebu...overall most of them are as likable as people I've know in the US of A.

Other impressioins: everyone can stay away from dimples and papion. Fine with me. Great hunting ground for GF girls. Hang out with them when they are not working. There are a lot more lookers working at these places and yes the money going to the bar is about P1000 more than other places. Pay it once and get the girls number if she like you. Pay her for afternoon sessions if you want. Many of them used to work at stadium or Jaguar which have P5000-P6000 for take-out fee. I agree though that I don't like the mama sans much, but then again most, not all, of the mama sans in cebu are not the nicest folks you'd want to meet.

--random....Anyone been to Sitsters and talked or hung-out with the woman that owns the place (I gues with her husband and 1 or 2 others) and have a fantasy that a true treat would be to fuck her? I don't know how old she is, but she is so damn sexy and also a looker even if she is older (maybe 30, I don't know). I almost asked her if I could bar fiine her (with a smile and laugh). I'm 95% sure she's still married...that's a problem.

I wish I could get hooked up with the many college girls that go out (secretly ) with older guys so they can at least have a little extra spending money (Read: there college guy friends also don't have money and can't buy them any simple little goodies that college girls deserve.) I don't have time to date 5 of them to find 1 from the internet. Too many are just "curious" to meet westerns, or don't understand that groping and kissing is just not going to do it for a guy over 25 . Cebu Local...ideas ?

More later guys.

I'm finally back here after about 6 weeks. I'm trying to decide if I want to go to Iloilo and/or Dumaguete or just stay on here until my flight out on the 18th. There's a lot here to tempt me to just stay.

I'm staying at the Waterfront this time. Marriott asked for 5800/night. As recently as 2 years ago I was paying something like 3300. Waterfront is 4400. There's some renovation going on but it's not a problem so far. One piece of good news here is the gym is now free for guests. They use to charge something like 300 even to hotel guests.

The restaurant/bar area across the street from Waterfront's entrance has been torn down. It looks like they're putting up something useless like an office block.

I went to Ratsky with some girls I met on the Cagayan-Cebu plane. Most groups of girls also had guys. There were just a few groups of only girls. There were also groups of the all so familiar posse that surrounds the foreign guy visiting his chat friend/pen pal. It may be possible to intrude on these kinds of groups and chat up some of the surplus girls that are tagging along. Kind of like hitting on the bridesmaids at the wedding.

I also dropped into Silver Dollar for a while. Bianca, the girl that I barfined and raved about in late July is back after a few weeks' absence. I'll have to get around to posting some of my pics so that you can see this girl should be had at all costs.

Was in the SD recently and the girls told me she was out on an "extended bar fine." We talking about the same "Bianca?"

The Exotica sign is now down, and replaced by "Club Stars". I heard from one of the girls that used to work at Exotica that the owner sold the business back to the person he bought it from. Does anyone have any clearer information?

She's fair skinned and ample bosomed.

In case anyone was worried about my spiritual health I attended mass at San Nicolas yesterday with my girl here and her family. This was the clan that showed up en masse and unannounced at Majestic Restaurant in Ayala in July for me to foot the bill. To my utter amazement this time the father footed the bill for 5 of us at Sunburst Fried Chicken. I guess you just have to wait a while for things to play out.

I spotted 2 free lancers in Waterfront last night. One was fair to midland (about a 4 or 5), the other one I would never touch under any circumstances. They were waiting upstairs around the casino. I wouldn't make a special trip here to check things out. Only look around if you're actually staying here or coming for the casino.

The girls I met on the Cagayan-Cebu have turned out to see me as a cash cow rather than a sex bull. They came to the hotel lobby and called my room asking for money while I was in the middle of a session with my girl, not exactly the way to soften my heart.

I hope I am not breaking any rule when I give this link - [url]http://nightlife.cebuliving.com/[/url]

This site has maps and reviews of the bars broken down by geographic location in Cebu. i.e. Mango bars and Fuente bars.

There are many bars here that I have never heard of. I would give a strong word of caution to any Newbie to Cebu to be wary of the Downtown Clubs, as well as many of the "Pinoy" bars. Personally, I avoid going to the Colon area - period! Just too much opportunity to have something stolen (as well the place is a cesspit).

Having said that...I am still curious to see what some of these little hole-in-the-wall clubs are like.

Guys,

Sorry if this is a repeat question. (The "search" function isn't as easy as some of you make it out to be, you know!)

Should I reserve a hotel room BEFORE I get to Cebu? Right now, I am leaning towards "no", or at most just one night at Days Hotel near the airport. (I may be a wreck getting off the plane, and just want a place to crash.)

Based on what I read, there are lots of hotels available, and I should be able to wander around Cebu looking for one I like and can afford.

Thanks.

You're absolutely right about the search function. I had trouble findiing some of my old posts.

You didn't say when you are going, but it's not a bad idea to reserve a room for the first night. Especially if you expect to be jet lagged. Even after you recover, you might find that searching for another hotel isn't nearly as appealing or interesting as you might have thought.

My advice for a newbie to Cebu is to go to the Fuente Circle area because you can walk to just about anything and everything: restaurants, shops, department store, bars, net cafe, bookstore, etc.

If you stay near the airport you'll be on Mactan and there is less of everything I mentioned above.

I'd also suggest changing money at the airport before you leave. It may seem obvious, but I forgot once and then had to change money at the hotel (money changers were closed), which is usually not a good idea.

Actually the DaysHotel is not bad for recovering from jet lag,Its 2 minutes from the Airport and since it is the Hotel of The PAL,Cathay,MAS etc flight crew it has 24 hour room service and 24 /7 Pick up and drop off from the airport.Then you can hunt for hotels at your leisure calling from a local hotel.Cheers

The best “reasonable fact simile” I have found is the Sunflower Disco on Thursday or Saturday night. Don't bother on any of the other nights.

[QUOTE=Digi Man]Thanks for all the great reports. I'll have to go on business to Cebu in October and was wondering if there are places like LA Cafe in Malate (Manila).

Any input would be greatly appreciated.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=Billpsu]The best “reasonable fact simile” I have found is the Sunflower Disco on Thursday or Saturday night. Don't bother on any of the other nights.[/QUOTE]

Thought I might mention this one, I visited the place for the second time about two weeks ago, it is located near the Overworked SF at the rear of the Cebu Grand Majecstic hotel & convention center. Not well marked but taxis can get you there easily.

Potential for this place is good, few foreigners there, I was the only one on a late Thursday night, PLENTY of un attached ladies dancing in two's and three's, got the eye a few times but with Mrs Spamhog in attendance thats al I was gonna get. It may have been the fact that there was some sort of Pinoy convention in town but or the fact that ladies are admitted free Monday thru Friday (P100 on wekends) cover for guys every night of P 100. This is one reason why the SF has been slim lately, that and the fact that the largely Korean management tends to discourage the freelancers and caters more to their country men. Any how the drinkers were cheaper, P 50 for san Mig Vs P90 and most mixed drinks went for P100, they make a palatable singapore sling also.

Left the place at 1 am, the ever lovin' holding my arm TIGHT less one of the pickup girls in the parking lot or out on the street spirit me away to some den of depravaty. Got the impression these girls were hanging about coz of the convention, some were not too bad (I was SOBER). My general impression was guards kept them out of the parking lot.

Anyhow may be worht a shot???

SpamHog, you've always been a great source of information, although your pussywhipped condition always tempers things a bit. I hope I'm as happily married as you are some day. Does she have a sister?

I'm not familiar with the Cebu Majestic (i can do a net search). But you suggested the desired location is behind the CM? Does that mean in the parking lot behind the hotel?

Nor am I familiar with SF. Does that mean Sunflower disco? Or Single female?

Thanks for the info, X

That place had the most butt ugly girls of any bar i've ever been to (i was there about 8 months ago).

If they put donkeys in there it would be an improvement.

Gentlemen:

The Pump is indeed located off Cardinal Reyes Avenue tooch, there is a huge parking lot which enhouses the Convention center & Cebu Majestic hotel, its pretty hard to miss even if drunk coz the lettering on the building is in bright red letters three feet tall, said nightclub is in the rear right ground floor.

Yes X Man SF means sunflower.

Also if you want to be as pussy whipped as I am my ever lovin' does have TWO sisters. One is a buy one take one (Kids) the other is without, er.. so far...big surprise coz shes poked most people in the neighborhood with the exception of yours truly...but Im workin' on a serrepititious laison.

The Spamhog[/QUOTE]

But be careful that the Mrs. doesn't know too much about your ISG affiliation. Just 4 days ago she told me that she would have introduced me to sisters and cousins but I'm "not serious." Yep, that's one switched on lady, that Mrs. Spam Hog.

I made it to the Pump just before I went to Iloilo. It's true that the Grand Majestic is easy to find. But the Pump itself doesn't stand out. I didn't see any signs for it. It's on the right side of the building with a few chairs and tables set up outside. Again I didn't see any sign with the name of the place. Inside, on a Thursday night I think it was, the ratio was roughly even, maybe even a few too many guys. There were a number of female-only groups though. To make contact it definitely helps to get out on the dance floor. I moved in on one group and they were very friendly and let me join them at their table later. They were a group of 3 but I wasn't able to get anyone to jump at my hints to join me in the Waterfront later. So no happy ending this time but I think there are possibilities here for the assertive and persistent. Another place in this class is Vudu in the Crossroads Shopping Center, which also tends to favor Hip Hop.

After I got back from Iloilo I checked into the Club Ultima, a new place just down Jones Avenue from Fuente Osmena. It's in a good location next to the Silver Dollar bar and and short ride to other places nearby. This is another Crown Regency franchise, making about 4 of them now in the Cebu area. I paid 4000 for the night I was there. It's still in the soft open phase, so the room rates figure to go up in the future. The place is just ok and adequate for now, not a rave review sort of situation. The room is nice enough and had acres of bed space. It was missing an in room safe and could do with a few more electrical outlets (not even one to plug in a lousy cell phone charger without undoing one of the lamps). The gym is nice enough and there are several pools and jacuzzis, though they all seem to be indoors. The main irritation here is a 100 peso charge to get a towel even if you're a guest. There will be several restaurants and a rooftop bar here, but for now only one place is open. Most importantly, the place is guest friendly. I gave it a good test with one fairly obvious bargirl and then later a respectable-looking innocent (until she gets me alone in the room and attacks me).

The bargirl I called in is Dafnie. I described her in a late July report when I barfined her from Sisters Bar. She's not working there anymore (part of that place's decline). Now she's just at home waiting for whatever. Whatever turned up one night last week in the form of Horny Mahku wanting an encore. She came over to Club Ultima. I met her outside and escorted her past approving security guards. She's got a small, tight, hot body and she loves to perform. I asked her if she wanted me to make her contact info available and she said ok. So members can PM me if they want to meet her.

I want to get around to posting pics of Dafnie and also Bianca. But doing so from my camera through internet cafe computers is proving a hassle. So please bear with me. A warning about Bianca: NEVER let her into the casino, especially if you're at Waterfront like I was. Getting her out again will be like pulling an elephant from the last watering hole in the Serengheti. DO take her to Sunflower or some other place fun. It pays off big time in GFE dividends.

I made it to Sunflower a couple of times. I found the crowds a bit diminished from before, sort of like what's happened to the Venue in Davao. Like Spam Hog said, the Korean owners have jacked up the prices so that it mainly appeals to Asian tourists. I saw NO freelancers hanging out near the bar like I always did before. This place may now only be good to bring a girl for a date rather than coming here alone for hunting.

Girly bar tidbits: Club Stars (formerly Exotica), like someone else noted, is a real snooze now. Few girls worth looking at. Sisters Bar, like I said, has already gone downhill. The stunners that were there before seem to have moved on. The best selection girlwise of the bars in this cluster was at Dimples. I didn't have a chance to check into barfine prices, etc. The barfine in this place used to include the girl's portion.

Can you provide more information on "The Pump." Type of place (disco, bar, etc), m/f ratio, good nights to visit, your impression of action, etc.

Thank you.

There was a girl in there that was 1/2 Japanese. I had an amazing time with her but was never working or was already bar fined when I went back a couple times. Anyone know if she's still there. Can't miss her.

For Billspu and a few others who seem to be interested in this place.

The Spamhog put on a clean shirt, actually took a bath and a shave dragging Mrs along for protection and entered The Pump on Friday night at 2200 Hrs
(thats 10 PM). Waded through the collection of solidly Filipino couples and bribed the water with a P20 note for a "booth" type table as the seats in this place are too damn hard for my ample ass to rest comnfortably. Began my recon of the place.

Counted sixteen females out on the crowded dance floor,dancing in small two's & three's.
Seven Korean girls, sitting with two Korean males, one of these babes made a small spectacle of herself later on when obviously drunk she began an attempt at a "sexy" dance and almost ended up crashing on her skinny ass, caught by a Filipino gallant and felt up royally before released to stagger some more, paused and sipped her beer and dangled a cigarette twixt her fingers.

ITEM: one lone foreigner sitting at the bar drew a lot of attention from passing ladies, guy was drunk or in a trance, never semed to notice. Other than my ugly Irish mug the only other white guy I saw.

Music really sucked, some DJ who thought he was an LA "Gangsta" playing hip hop songs difficult to dance to dampened the spirits a bit. I noticed most of the ladies were unaccompanied, got lots of looks from the women and a few smiles, would have made out like a bandit but my ever lovin growled down any competitors.

Mrs Spamhog, ansty after nursing one san Mig lite convinced bored husband to take her to sunflower to dance. Best move of the night, better music and more varied entertainment including entourage of two foreigners, one dressed in a lion costume, both accompanied by six females, ugliest skanks they could find. everyone drunk especially the goof who started dancing on the table while sucking down champagne. Later they got ejected after lion costume mounted the stage and took over the mike. sounded Aussie or british.

Been awhile since I visited the SF but I see not much has changed, still a lot of horny guys oogling the girls, the boldest dancing closest to the bars flaunting their wares for any interested, you guys need to work on your approach so says Mrs Spamhog after watching a few guys strike out.

The Pump is a little hard to find as I've previously stated as no signs or neon to mark the place but many tables and chairs outside in the parking lot, lots of bouncers walking around in black T shirts with the club name in white, don't know how you can miss it really.

Also for the pure mongers I again noted "ladies of the evening" in the ample parking lot and on the street across from the place. This would be on Cardinal Reyes Ave.(or is it archbishop? anyhow some guy in a Mitre and a staff)

Anyhow good luck gentlemen.

Coming to Cebu in December. Hoping to get some help in finding a clean, inexpensive hotel.

On my previous trips, I have stayed at the old Metrpolis Court (now renamed something else - name escapes me at the moment) in Guadaloupe. Nice clean hotel, kind of out of the way and quiet.

But since they changed the name, they have also raised the price. So, I am in search of a new place to call home when I am in town.

I am looking for something similar to the old Metropolis Court, and not too expensive. So far, I have found Golden Peak Hotel at 1800 php for Standard Room, and 2200 php for Deluxe room. Any other suggestion?

I don't need anything near the action as I have about 6 girls lined up from chatting online. I just need a clean hotel room, preferrably with bath tub and pool (but not an absolute requirement) and an inexpensive rate (preferrably under 1500 php.

Would appreciate any help out there.

Thanks.

In the next 2-3 hours? Yea, that would be difficult...even in the Philippines. Women can smell desperation a mile away. I'd be much more likely to try some conversation and then get the digits. You can always call the next day.

The best intro line I've ever used in a disco: "Would you like to dance?"

If I want to get laid in the next couple hours...I go the P4P route.

I just booked a one way ticket to Angeles for less than $2 USD (99 Pesos) on Cebu Pacific. Of course, the add-on charges came to another 1000 Pesos

I don't know how long this promotion will last. Even if they go to regular pricing though, it is only up to 568 Pesos (lowest rate)

The following is a list of my favorites, most of these places are VERY cheap and cater to foreigners. If you have and "overnight guest" or two they are VERy accomidating: In no special order are:

The Richmond, a hi rise multi story, not much on amenities but a delux room goes for P1200 to P1400 range. I once rented a room for a month at P20,000 a suite room a top the building, used to barbecue on the roof. You can walk to Ayala Mall and the lone star bar even the Black hole etc.

Eddies, rooms go for P1400 plus, close to all the "attrachtions" Viking bar, black hole etc. Once again lite on amenities, decent resturaunt/western food and homey little bar.

Castle peak, P1200 a night or cheaper

Rock bottom cheap is northwinds hotel rooms for P1000(?) drawback is this place is usually loaded with filipinos on weekends and many wedding parties with noisy kids running the halls. Zero amenities but a short walk to JY square and the sunflower disco.

If you want something a little more upscale with a nice pool then check out
Montebello, near country mall (you can walk to it). This place has a great pool and garden area that is a romantic setting to take a Filipina. Probably get a room in the P2000 range.

You will see LOTs of foreigners in these places with their GF's, wives and bar finds, tip the guard & door man once in awhile if your going to have a lot of different girls visiting, they'll look out for you in case one or two show up asking questions while you are engaged within.

Taxi drivers know these places well and all are well within a five mile radius (appromately) of Ayala mall for your reference point.

PS I take it you are a diver??? Well you might want to check out Malapasqua which is a three hour bus ride away. Great (cheap) diving and Hotels.

Enjoy

i would advise if travelling to cebu early december (u didnt say when) to have a solid booking as the APEC circus will be in town and foreign ministers incl pm's and dignitries will be there and have booked all decent hotels.

personally i always stay at Kiwi lodge in tudtud st,molbolo for around 1100p per nite.

Do you go to a bar if you fail to accomplish your mission?

Unfortunately in the phils I have the problem that I get tired very, very early (9-10 pm!!) since it's so hot & humid. I walk around a lot and see many different or new things. Plus a lot of pretty girls ;-) All the impressions are tiring I guess. It's really annoying. Seems that it's impossible to combine full-time-vacationing and mongering in one single holiday.

I'm a walker too...drinker as well. I know exactly what you mean. Sometimes a short nap helps, sometimes not.

I walked from Midtown to downtown one day and then explored downtown. When it got late I decided to catch a taxi back but quickly realized traffic was at a rush-hour standstill. So I walked back to Midtown. I was exhausted.

I lost a few kilos on that trip, which leads to my second mistake. I bought a few pairs of pants on my last day. After I got back to my usual weight, the pants were almost too tight to wear.

Hi Guys,

Have been a lurker for awhile and have enjoyed some of your chit-chat.

A couple of questions, if you wouldn't mind.

1. What is the Cadillac Cafe like in Cebu? Planning on staying a couple of days soon. Completely straight/ just a quick, cheap stop before moving on. Your thoughts appreciated.

2. I've managed to work out most of the abbreviations but FKK and DATY have me stumped! Have a close idea but would would love to know these terms.

Cheers,

[QUOTE=Spam Hog]The following is a list of my favorites, most of these places are VERY cheap and cater to foreigners. If you have and "overnight guest" or two they are VERy accomidating: In no special order are:

The Richmond, a hi rise multi story, not much on amenities but a delux room goes for P1200 to P1400 range. I once rented a room for a month at P20,000 a suite room a top the building, used to barbecue on the roof. You can walk to Ayala Mall and the lone star bar even the Black hole etc.

Eddies, rooms go for P1400 plus, close to all the "attrachtions" Viking bar, black hole etc. Once again lite on amenities, decent resturaunt/western food and homey little bar.

Castle peak, P1200 a night or cheaper

Rock bottom cheap is northwinds hotel rooms for P1000(?) drawback is this place is usually loaded with filipinos on weekends and many wedding parties with noisy kids running the halls. Zero amenities but a short walk to JY square and the sunflower disco.

If you want something a little more upscale with a nice pool then check out
Montebello, near country mall (you can walk to it). This place has a great pool and garden area that is a romantic setting to take a Filipina. Probably get a room in the P2000 range.

You will see LOTs of foreigners in these places with their GF's, wives and bar finds, tip the guard & door man once in awhile if your going to have a lot of different girls visiting, they'll look out for you in case one or two show up asking questions while you are engaged within.

Taxi drivers know these places well and all are well within a five mile radius (appromately) of Ayala mall for your reference point.

PS I take it you are a diver??? Well you might want to check out Malapasqua which is a three hour bus ride away. Great (cheap) diving and Hotels.

Enjoy

Thanks Spamhog.

I stayed in Richmond for one night a couple of years back, I didn't quite like it that much - it was dark, small and had a damp smell to the room. After one night, I moved to Metropolis Court.
May be I just got a bad room that time.

Still looking for info on Golden Peak though.

Diver

ps, never been to Malapuasca - but was told the Thresher sharks no longer there. How is diving otherwise? Still good? May be I will bring one of my Yahoo girls there - always nice to take them out of the city...

A friend and I checked out Club Harem last night. We had to see the place because we heard that this mainly Philippino Club had the best looking girls in Cebu.

The experience was a major disappointment. First when the curtains of the fishbowl were opened. Although the girls didn't look bad, there wasn't anything there that you wouldn't find at any of the Mango Clubs. Some specifics: the girls are lined up on two sides of the fishbowl. Those that are available for barfine on the right and those that will just go to the VIP room with you on the left. I didn't ask about the barfine price because I wasn't interested (rumor has it at around 4000 Pesos). If you want a VIP room, then it is 1500 for the room and 368 Pesos per half hour for the girl

The bar area consists of many small tables and chairs surrounding a dance floor/runway. A dancer comes on stage individually and will strip off her bra. Pretty pedestrian.

The shocker was when we were presented our bill. They tried to pad it to 550 PESOS FOR 2 BEERS! 150 Pesos each for a "coverage charge" and 125 Pesos each for the beers. I told them quite frankly that I am not a stupid foreigner. I know this is all bullshit and more importantly - he knew it also. After a few minutes of bitchin and complaining, they reduced the bill to 250 Pesos. Still outrageous, but something I could live with.

So far, my experience at the Philippino clubs has been a bust. Does anyone have some good experience at the clubs off the Mango/Fuente strips?

hi guys,
i went for a short holiday in august but have time only now to write a report, sorry for delay !
first i read many usefull reports about the phil. but then decided to have my own experience i like to explore and not just follows the open ways i think everybody is different and could have different experience in the same place even with the same girl.

anyway arrived in cebu from europe via manila, i was disappointed by the town traffic, pollution, nothing interesting apart from the beautiful and friendly girls, i took with me some phone numbers i've got from the net in the days before departure, but then as usual only 2 ended in real encounters, the firs was really a surprise !

i met her in a bar in the evening, drink and talk together, really friendly, smiling polite with a happy face, then she suggested me to go to a mountain above cebu, sorry guys i don't remember the name, but you pinoy aficionados probably know it, it was really a romantic place for the night, fresh air, dark, panoramic view, so i supposed she wanted to do something with me otherwise why did she bring me there ? do u agree ?

impossible to touch, no kissing at all, it was a big surprise i really could not understand, i was thinking she like women ! but i' m not the type of person who insist too much so it was ok we talk, walk and went back me at my hotel and she at home, but i was so horny that i had to do something.

take a taxi and asked for his help, i wanted to see and fuck, a street girl or a semiprofessional, it was too late for the driver to arrange a student so he bring me to black hole ( a big square ) there you could find 2-5 girls in the range of 5-7 walking you can choose and discuss about price and service, i picked up a may be 26 not the best but was smiling, and polite, not aggressive at all, we went in my hotel room, (no problems at the entrance, just ask for my key normally and smiling and walk inside together) she undressed herself and me, than she started to give me a deep blow job, good tecnique and i wasn't able to resist too much so i came in her mouth very quickly, the she started with the usual story....she has a small kid at home with some parents.....she would like to be back before morning.......ok ok the same story, she did not have a body to die for so i preferred to sleep, give 1500 and she went back happy for the next customer !

next day second meeting with a schoolgirl, she arrived in a mall accompanied by her older siter or something like this, the sister strted to ask so many question, where i come from, how is salary in my country,....i was so disapponted, my girl was nice and polite but the sister was like her manager so i just offered a drink and say i had to go !

in the evening i met again my first girl, dinner together and after she complained that the evening before i didn't ask her to stay with me in the hotel.....! what ?
i say that i can't stay with her if she even don't like to be touched, i'm not gay ! so she excused with me and say that she is not a easy girl that goes with everybody and she would like to know me better, ok so i now we know better and we can sleep together !

she was very horny, she told me it was a long time she didin't go with a man, her last boyfriend was violent and she preferred to stay alone after that bad experience, she get wet very quickly, she love when i eat her brest, and particulary her nipples, the more hard i eat the more horny she was, i get so excited so i started to fuck her mouth, but was not able ! she told me it was her firts time and she wanted to learn so i strated gently to enter in her mouth, then i covered and did her doggy (my favourite..) i came before her and after a rest i sterted to eat again her nipples, nec and pussy she really get crazy and came very fast.

next day she had to go to school in the hospital, so i took a bus to moal boal , finally a relaxing small village for diving eating fish and resting on the beach at sunset, we kept in contact by mobile and she wanted to come to me, next day she arrived soon at 8 am incredible ! i had to cancel my dive and started immediately to give her the second lesson on bbbjcim, we could not have sex as she was bleeding, i don't like to do it and i love blow job so the next 3 days she improved a lot in her tecnique.... she was very powerfull even after 1 hour sucking ! i was in paradise, diving in the morning, swimming and playing with her on the beach in the afternoon and bbbjcim in the night, my best holiday !

she like very much to have fun, she try to give me a underwater bj but time was so short and she need to breath before i could came, wonderful, i got so hard with her in the water that it was difficult to go out.

near moal boal you could visit some nice waterfals, we rented a byke and drive to the mountains, the day of departure came soon so we went back to cebu and i took my flight for manila.

arrived in manila at midnight and decided to visit the famous bar with pools and live music sorry again guys for my poor memory but all of you know very well the place it's in the center of night life, very smoky, noisy, two floors, many girls, some nice other ughly, i could not find a girl for me, the best were busy and the other i didn't like, evenb a girl that could not speek came to me and started to write on the paper her name, and started a conversation on the paper....incredible....she was so nice but not my type, does anybody of you know / have tryed her ?

i was almost leaving at 4 am wile i saw a model face, very smiling and slim, i like her immediately and started to talk she told me she was a former bartender, many people know her, so probaly it was true, anyway i was tired and horny so i decided to ask immediately if she was coming with me in my hotel, she was not expecting my question so quickly so she smiled and saied ok !

we went back to the hotel, no problems at all she was very well dressed, like a rich girl but very simple, we went up, shower and she started to give me a nice deep bbbj, she was not a beginner so no lessons at all ! she started to leak my balls and back to him, i get hard and horny very quickly so i covered and done her doggy, she say it was big for her but probably she like.

finished at 5.30 am and wake up at 7.30 for my international flight, she never asked money, i left 2500 on the table with a message for her, pay my bill, drink a coffe and go to the airport.

i forgot to tell you that the school nurse never asked for money, really a sweet polite and lovely girl, i'm so happy we met and we still keep in contact by email/phone, probaly i'll send some money to help her studies and her life but she never asked me anything.

sorry for my poor english and my long story, but i have a really pleasant memory of the country and the people, if i could give a message to you be polite, smiling and respect the girls, most of them are really good, probably they could be good wifes for life, you pinoy expert know them more than me.

i'll post some picture.

happy hunting to all
