Getting dangerous down there.
As terrible as this incident is, it will not greatly deter guys from coming to Sosua and tearing chocha out the frame. It is a warning and a lesson. Be aware of who is checking you out because when you think nobody is scoping you out--they are scoping you out.

Getting dangerous down there.[/QUOTE]I hate to speculate but the fact that they didn't kill the first guy leads me to believe the guy that got killed may have refused to give up his valuables. I split up my money even in my hotel room so if someone tries to rob me I will give them some money and hopefully they will leave without incident. We may never know what happened because the only person who could tell the truthful story is dead but my only advise to my fellow mongers is it is better to be a living coward than a dead hero,if someone with any kind of weapon tries to rob you give them what they want because life in a third world country has very little value and they WILL kill you.

So all you guy's that are making it rain in Classico. Think about who's got their eye on you when you walk down the steps on your way to the hotel at night. Sometimes when you make it rain, thunder will follow!
Based on the story about the Canadians, this would not have helped them but I think it is worth the small investment.
Leave a propina daily for the maid, keeps your tooth brush from the toliet bowl and the same to the security guard at night, at least once a week. Not that you are throughing money around rico hombre but making friends. Oh, and always treat everyone with respect, this is the third world, they may be hustling, selling, pandering but it is a job, no welfare state to go to.
40 years of mongering and no problems walking down dark streets, so far.

I like to tip the maids a small amount. They always are so happy when you do this and the smile you get makes me feel good, Also the extra towels and service is improved.

Now you are making me wonder how many times my toothbrush received a toilet rinsing. LOL
Good advise. Thanks.
I have said it many times. My ex was Dominican. She still says Haiti is safer than the DR. I have never had a problem in Haiti but had many close calls in the DR. I picked up a sexy babe walking one night and when it got in the car I realized she had a kickstand and asked it to get out of the car., It demanded money and I told it to f_ _ k off at which time she grabbed my glasses but I flicked them in the back seat. Then it tried to grab the keys to the car which I damn near broke its hand and opened the door and shoved it out. It was trying to hang on to the car door but could not keep up. The I turned around and tried to run it over. That could have been a mistake and I caught up to my anger before I turned and tried again. Over the years I have had many close calls there. The girls are too fat and they charge too much. The hot babes you see there now are mostly Haitian but they have been hardened by their Dominican boyfriends.
Watch your back. Do not flash alot of money around and try to be as cheap as you can so they will think you do not have enough $$ to bother with you

Sometimes when you make it rain, thunder will follow![/QUOTE] Just some "ear candy". I married a chica in La maranahta /villa Betania. When I went there it felt like I was being 'allowed' to enter with her. I knew this barber and when I saw him we waved. People always watch you. One of the family would always be present with me in El barrio. In one of the colmados I was buying something and out popped this ravenously beautiful chica! It was like some wanted to show there are more chicas for the taking but this was I time when I was alone for a few minutes. The only place I know that could of been where the crime occurred. Up the long street in sosua abajo before the propane station take a right. It takes you thru to a small grouping of houses and the one to the deep left has a high fence, the house sits back away from the road. Further on you go up this steep hill and there are a few houses alone on the left. It's not the place I want to travel at night for sure.
The one time I got plucked, was when I let my guard down and got out of my own comfort zone. It was two in the morning on classicos disco dancing. It was my second DR trip several years ago. After 12 Cuba libres I was felling good dancing with two girls, one in front one in back. The chic in front was grinding my dick the one in back was hanging on me for the ride. My eyes were closed as enjoyed the feeling. The girl in back was giving me a reach around thru my front pants pocket. The next morning when I did my official count I was 80usd short. Two days later I saw the front girl on the beach and told her I know you got me. She denied it and acted as if I was loco. Flash foward a few years to now, I still see that girl in sosua and I still look and point at her like I'm crazy. The fucked up part is that I'm not sure shes the one, but being I got caught slipping I have to blame someone. Here are my new rules when partying in sosua(1)Always keep strange girls hands above my shoulders. (2)establish a comfort zone around me, when its violated go in defense mode. (3)take only drinking money when out at night. (4)always leave passport in room safe, I have the photo copy with me. (5)stay away from male street hustlers nothing good comes out of it, they want to get close to size you up. (6)Be mysterious with strangers. (7)never tell strangers what hotel your at. (8)Stay around crowds if your alone and isolated you are vulnerable.

The United States Department of State agrees with your ex-wife. Their statitics says crime rate is two or three times higher in DR than Haiti. Average official murders in DR is 2500 per year but an estimated similar amount goes unreported so murders per year are near 5k. My brothers wife is dominican and she agrees with this. She says that in isolated areas murders goes unreported. A person is killed, nobody files anything, body is buried and thats it. A lot of times a person dissapears and nobody never knows more about him/her. Are you a stranger? a foreigner? Next time you return they are going to remember you. Onedazz story is a good example of this.
Anyone seen the new hotel.....Sosua Bay Beach club.....seen some adds, but not much info anywhere....I tried to email them to no avail. Supposed to be right on the beach, visitor friendly....any comments from anyone highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!!

Thanks in advance!![/QUOTE]Sosua Bay Hotel seems now to be called Sosua Bay Beach Club, same rooms in their webpage that I used over 6 years ago. It was an inexpensive good all inclusive hotel years ago. The prices for their rooms according to their webpage are 80-100 dollars per night (appears no food included for that price). The hotel is located behind the new casino. It really doesn't have a beach. They have about a 30 foot section of sand near the parking area at the start of Sosua Beach (be careful of the rocks and cement blocks under the water near that location as well as the sea urchins throughout sosua beach, you don't want to step on a sea urchin in bare feet). Snorkeling towards the right of this hotel is not bad. It is a pretty hotel inside, some nice iron work (railings and light coverings). Pool is adequate. Victorian House shares the same property. Victorian House was supposedly built for some sugar baron many years ago.
When I stayed there in the past with the all inclusive package I always met other guests, most guests mingled with other guests there. I have stayed at the Casa Marina all inclusive in Sosua and for whatever reason the people who stay at the Casa Marina do not like to mingle with other guests.
The rooms at the Sosua Bay Hotel were dated the last time I stayed there a few years ago, from the photos on their webpage appears they haven't changed the rooms. The location is about three blocks from Classicos. 100 dollars per night for an ocean view, seems a little expensive to pay that for what is probably a dated room in Sosua.
