Panama City

[QUOTE=Tbuss; 1462626]There are a couple of reasons why Panama's places that cater to North Americans are a lot higher than other Latin cities. One is that most of the girls have formed a kind of quasi union where they set the price at $150 or even $200 and collectively try to enforce that price. They are pretty effective at it.

The second part of the equation and the reason those policies are able to stand is that a large number of North American men pay the obscenely high (for Latin America) prices. A lot of guys even tip and give gifts on top of that. Still others respond to Western Union requests from the girls and send additional money. The frequency with which this happens demonstrates to the girls that there are a lot of guys that are easily taken advantage of and easily separated from their money. As such prices continue to go up and service and attitude continue to go down.

Costa Rica suffers from the same exact dynamic, but it is a little cheaper there, I think because Panama gets a lot more business and well-heeled travelers that interact with the girls. If you want good service without price-gouging, you have to go to cities and / or establishments where there are not a lot of North American guys.[/QUOTE]Exactly===hit the nail on the head tbus

In the spirit of Yum Kippur (sic) , last night many restaurants were dark. I therefore decided to have dinner at the Veneto 'New York' restaurant, (ok food, good service). Upstairs around 20:00 all was very quiet.

After dinner around 21:30 the upstairs in the casino had filled up some but still with plenty of bare spots. Around 10:00 the regulars started disappearing slowly but very surely. As I am not a gambler, I decided to go and check the Habanos to see what gives.

When I put my nose out of the Veneto's door, I was faced with a rather large police operation. Cops everywhere, interviewing in spot checks. There was not a girl hanging around the entrance as you can imagine. Got in my car and notice also there was no SW hanging anywhere close to Ca. Morales why Av. Espana near the teatro la Quadra.

Aiming for Habanos, as soon as you make the right turn at the Marriott. Police everywhere again. The famous Habanos was EMPTY. Sure there were a few local girls there but the ratio was probably 8 english teacher to one student.

Well let us call it what it was. A screwed up night.

Remember most shops are closed again today. Multiplaza will feel awfully quiet.

Try and Enjoy.

There was definitely a big sting yesterday. None of the girls showed up to Club Miami even though on Thursday the talent was pretty good.

It's the same crap over again. Le Palace and Elite have the cops on their payroll. Hurt Habanos and the smaller clubs.

Veneto is fine today. So they greased in with the cops. Haven't checked out Habanos. Probably a ghost town. Unfortunate because Habanos was bumping the last week. I guess it's time for me to go into San Miguelito to find out how the quality is at La Bombonera and Capri. Good game me, not coming back.

Confirming that Veneto was back to normal or as close as possible what with the boxing event that attracted a full house.

Habanos was as if a large vacuum cleaner had passed. Many Many students were missing. But the ratio teacher student was much better I would say 5 to 1 around midnight. Things should be improving again by tonight.

The SW were back in action on their corner of via Espana.

Enjoy.

Was looking for someone who spoke some English and found what I was looking for at Elite II last week. Was approached by 3 girls, and the last one spoke reasonable English. Said she was a student during the day. Bar fine was higher than I expected. $165. Also, afterwards, I questioned her about the business, and she said that the bar not only took the bar fine, but also half of the girl's fee. Not sure if true, but take it for what it is worth. Stayed at Veneto, and no one questioned me when I entered with the girl, no visitor fee, etc.

Veneto casino bar was stocked with girls at 8:30 that night, but none were exceptional. They were nearly all gone by 10:30 when I checked back. Seems like the early bird catches the worm there.

I will be in Panama in October for the second time.

Looking for someone to go chica hunting with I speak spanish and like big butts.

Whos up for it?

Hi all,

Have to go over on business later this year / early 2014. I have RTFF, but looking for any current recent info that will also be useful to help in planning!

Thanks in advance. PM welcome. Cheers!

I just got back from a trip to Panama. Didn't have much time for activities but made most of limited time in city. Had a room at Marriott right across street from habanos. It was not chica friendly. I also rented a room at veneto to play because it was close by and cheap ($92). It was night of soccer game Jamaica vs Panama. Went to habanos and it was loaded with some gorgeous girls. Can't say that it's like that every night but there had to be 30 plus in a small area. Also was some talent upstairs striping. It is a low key place with one small stage. Girls are take out and was $100 with some negotiation. I actually have $20 propina because she was so smoking hot. Also went to eliteII. Paid $35 to get in and is all you can drink and was given a bracelet. Others inside didn't have it so assume I could have paid for drinks and got in for less. This place was nice and there were not many rules but sex not on menu. Best to visit for eye candy and go elsewhere to partake. Was $50 for 3 song lap dance and a shirt which I could not take home with me. Haha. Left there and went to golden fingers. This place was great. Went in and there was one other guy and me. You are given a beer and a sticker and pen. Maybe 8-10 girls total. Most colombians. All the girls come Out one at a time and are wearing numbers. Then they all stand together and you choose was $85 hh or 125 hr. Opted for hour. Great session with a nice Colombian. Massage with oil then full service and a shower after to wash that grease off.

Next night I wasn't available until late so went to veneto and sat at the blackjack table. They have $3 minimum so you can sit and see the chicas for little risk of losing all your play money. I was approached by many pushy woman and some 7's were offering $50 for full because I have a room there. I held off for the best one in the place and only got her because the guy perusing her went to bathroom so I went up to her and said let's go. Was a 10. Perfect body and was worth the dick move. I couldn't bring myself to anyone else. Also $100 with $20 tip which she asked for beforehand. Was ok with it. Many speak no English at all. This place overall is great nd the country is beautiful however the only action was in the city but was flooded with affordable model types. All the girls in habanos were incredible and best of all places I went but assume had to do with soccer game.

Veneto should be pretty dead til Monday. There is a major poker tournament going on. Most of the girls got kicked out. ClubMiami is dead.

I am not sure where the girls are this week. My guess is they are at Ashe.

Last night the Veneto was quiet, I mean DEAD around 20:00.

Police again in the front, no girls in sight except for locals.

Went to Habanos. AGAIN super DEAD, a few local girls, LARGE police presence checking paperworks on the girls, until midnight. 00:15 hrs once the call had been made and the police had departed the girls started showing up again.

They do have good communication skills.

Was talking with a Colombiana who was hiding, the police charge them some $600 to be release. Good reason to hide.

Funny anecdote. At the Mariott around 23:00, a group of young girls (+- 25 of 'them) came out. The whole detachment of police hurried to go an investigate them. Turns out it was the end of a quinzenera party (equivalent to sweet 16 party in US).

By the way, the Mariott does NOT seem to be anti-companion. They seem to insist on regular conservative (ahum) dress code which makes entrance acceptable. Otherwise they will pound on your party.

Let us hope we get back to normal soon.

Enjoy.

I was in Panama again for the fight last weekend. Can confirm Police action at Veneto and Habanos until about 11pm Friday. Veneto picked up after that. The next night (Saturday) for the Fight things were back to normal. I have been to Panama 3 times in the last 2 months. Must say this last trip was the worst. Girls seemed to be going back there Mechanical clock watching ways. To professional for my taste. Talent seemed down also.

Probably won't be back for a while. Oh well I guess not every trip can be a winner.

I just returned from Panama city. Was there Sat to Thur last week. Veneto had a poker tournament on Tue and wed and jacked up their prices. They had A / C breakdown in the hotel on Tue night (sucked big time) , that was the night I was trying to catch up on some sleep. Agreed Veneto was the slowest I have seen in last 3 yrs, still there a few girls to be had. I did not see many girls outside the hotel either. Also they removed the hand shuffled blackjack games and put in high limit Roulette tables (25$ and 50$ min) which I never saw anyone play, What a dumbass idea by mgmt. Luckily the Crown casinos nearby still had those games.

Habanos was hopping every night I was there. Except the night it rained (I think Sun night) every other night it was packed. A whole lot of Colombina's (from Cali, Medellin, Manizales etc). A lot of them start at 200 and come down to 150, I did not partake with those. Some agreed to 120 but one of them I took was a runner, other 2 nights I had a good time with a Panamanian and Cali chica.

La Mayor is open and looked good the night I was there. Much cleaner and nicer than Boca Torena, though not as many girls.

Boca Torena seemed slower than last year, still plenty to be had there. They closed the rooms upstairs only downstairs is open, so on Saturday evening there was line to get the rooms and the jerks kept knocking on the door within 5 to 8 mins when its supposed to be 15 mins for 15$. Its only a good place if you are ready to finish the deed in 5 mins, it sucks in terms of time and stinks too. A good option would be to have some drinks and collect phone numbers. All these girls will go out to your hotel on their off days for 60$/1 hr and 90$/2 hrs (2 times). Much better value than Habanos or Veneto.

Finally getting a better idea of what the city has to offer price wise.

Hello gents,

I have a 21 hour layover in Panama city on the way home, falls on a Monday (hopefully not unfortunately).

Great info on this board, I am looking to do a 21 hour marathon in PC.

I land at PC airport roughly 8 pm, and am planning to book the Veneto as seems central to all the action, and still close to the airport.

I probably won't checkin to the hotel until almost 9:30 pm (I assume?), where is single best place I can go to bring a chica back to my room?

From rtff it looks like chicas clear out of Veneto at 10 pm, so if I don't find what I am looking for here, will Habanos do fine on a MOnday? How far from the hotel is this or can I find a better place?

I only get one night, and it's a tight schedule, so options are limited. Looking for a 9 slim/ slender chica for GFE.
