Jocotes is picking it's game up
I lived outside Antigua a few years back and used to spend a lot of time in Jocotenango. At the time if you wanted to find any decent P4P your only option was to head for Guate. The only action I ever came across in Jocotenango included a lactating gordita at El Zodiaco en la Belleza (the ironically named neighborhood between Antigua and Jocotes) or the crack smoking, toothless ladies of El Retiro (not my cup of tea). However, on my last visit I heard there was a new place in town to rival the best spots in the city. A friend invited me to visit but since I figured he was hoping I would pay for him as well, I didn't take him up on the offer. The night before I left I was approached by a group of three or four girls (7's for Guatemala) at the Taxi area in front of the Pollo Campero at the Mercado. They said they worked at a new club in town and that I should come visit. I took their flyer without paying too much attention."Son increibles las putas, eh?" noted the cabbie as I climbed in his taxi to leave town."What? Those girls were providers?" I couldn't believe it. Then I looked at the flyer they gave me and, sure enough, they worked at Divas Too. I never got the chance to visit as I had business to tend to before my departure but I have been interested to know how the place is. I'd love to know more details from those who have visited. To those who are in antigua and looking for ladies, I'd say it's worth the Tuk Tuk ride to see what it's all about. It mos Def beats the ride to the Capital.
Antigua: ATM Scam Banco" BAC"
I just want to advise everyone that there has been a ATM scam going on here for a while. The problem is with Banco "BAC" located in front of parque central. There have been numerous people that had their entire bank accounts drained, this is withdrawals of $10, 000. 00 plus. My advice is stay away from all machines that has high tourist traffic. I use the supermarkets. GOOGLE: Antigua ATM fraud
A square named " la Colonia de las bellezas " in Antigua
Forget about Jocotenango (a very small town at 5 minutes`ride from Antigua) and its hookers place called by tuk-tuk drivers as " la plazuela" where you can find young girls 20. 35 yrs old for 100 Quetzales for a 20-minute play in bed.
Instead head for a part of Antigua called " La Colonia de las Bellezas " where for 15Q a tuk-tuk driver can take you. There are 2 clubs operated by the same owner.
The first one I was taken to by the tuk-tuk driver can bear the comparison with a North American strip-tease club : modern comfortable chairs with table or semi-circular padded seating for 3 or 4 persons against the wall, modern bar well stocked with drinks in the range of 3. 4 dollars a glass, one large flat-panel color TV screen showing music videos and one small screen, a dancers pole stage, a good multicolor lighting system. I misplaced the name, just ask the tuk-tuk driver to take you to the more modern club in this square called " La Colonia de las Bellezas ".
I got a 10 Q bottle of purified water to be able to survey the scene; about 6 to 7 young slim girls and one young large girl. I would rate them a 6 on a scale of 10. All in a G-string showing their nude behinds assorted with sexy brassieres; they lookat you but will not bother you unless you signal for them. The going rate 200Q for 20 minutes.
The second club operated by the same owner in the same square is located 150 steps on the right side from this modern one; it is smaller in size, with less comfortable chairs, smaller bar and with girls older in their thirties and generally fully dressed. About eight of them on December 24. I would rate two of them with a 7, and the rest about 5 on a scale of 10. The going rate : 150Q for 20 minutes.
I was told by the doorman that for 1 000Q (about 125 USA dollars) you can take a girl out for the night to your place.
La Antigua : some action but generally no excitement!
