Puerto Plata

[QUOTE=Loso69][b][color=green][size=5]Prelude[/size][/color][/b]

For the first week of my trip to the DR, I was supposed to stay at the Field of Dreams in Puerto Plata. Billy picked me up at the airport and drove me to Field of Dreams. After a shower and some dinner, Billy gave me and another hotel guest from NY a tour of the Puerto Plata strip clubs.

[b][color=green][size=5]Casa Ana Mirian aka Frank’s Place[/size][/color][/b]

They still refer to Casa Ana Mirian as Frank’s place, although Frank no longer owns or manages the place. Since his departure, the place lacks an English-speaking host and has gone downhill.

When we visited, we were the only customers and the girls were sitting around looking bored. There was one girl I fancied, though. Billy knew her and said she was good, but nothing special. Since we could always come back for her later, I passed for the time being. We finished our drinks, Billy picked up the tab and we moved on to the next place.

[b][color=green][size=5]El Bohen[/size][/color][/b]

At El Bohen, I hooked up with an exquisite creature called Maira. Billy and NY found suitable company as well, and we bought the girls a round of expensive drinks. I had a good time chatting & dancing with Maira, but when I asked her if she wanted to go with me, she wanted 4500 DOP (including the salida). Billy said the deals got better at 11.30 PM (near closing time), so I decided to check out another place before I made my decision.

BTW, there were a few other customers in El Bohen, but not all that many. And there were girls dancing on stage at times, but no strip shows.

[b][color=green][size=5]Crystal’s[/size][/color][/b]

Crystal’s was by far the liveliest of the 3 places we visited. There was a good crowd and continuous shows, where the girls stripped butt-baked.

At first, Billy said he could get us a discounted salida of 600 DOP. But after talking to the owner, he came back to say there were no more deals. The salida was 1300 DOP.

There were a few lookers in Crystal’s, but none of them could match Maira’s beauty. Near closing time, as NY was negotiating with his chica, Billy drove me back to El Bohen to pick up Maira.

[b][color=green][size=5]El Bohen Revisited[/size][/color][/b]

Even though it was closing time, Maira kept insisting on 4500 DOP and refused to negotiate. Furthermore, I had to pay the full amount in advance, which I didn’t trust.

Billy came in and said I had to hurry to make a deal, as he was leaving. In the end, I decided against it…

[b][color=green][size=5]Billy’s Temper[/size][/color][/b]

On the way back to El Bohen, I had asked Billy to confirm that I would only pay the salida in the bar and the rest to the girl the next morning. Billy confirmed that. Afterwards, he said that he knew that everything had to be paid in advance and that he hadn’t been to El Bohen in 6 months because he didn’t like the way they did business. Contradictions…

On the way back to Crystal’s, Billy also reproached me that he’d spent 25 USD of his own money on drinks. He was [b]shouting[/b]: “I shouldn’t have to pay money to drive you guys around! Am I right?” Losing your temper with a customer is totally unacceptable, so I calmly told him I’d be checking out the following morning.

[b][color=green][size=5]My Deal with Bruce[/size][/color][/b]

My stay at the Field of Dreams was arranged by Bruce (from TSM), who’s an investor in the hotel. He picked up the tab for my first 3 nights and assured me that Billy would show me around. Otherwise, I would never have agreed to stay at a hotel in the middle of nowhere, as I prefer to be close to the action and hate wasting money on transportation. For me, Billy showing me around was part of the deal.

[b][color=green][size=5]Billy’s Profiteering Ways[/size][/color][/b]

My experiences with Billy were confirmed by other punters. He’s basically a profiteer, who expects you to pick up the tab wherever he goes, even if he starts ordering very expensive ladies’ drinks. And if you refuse to be taken advantage of, you’ll get to see the other side of him... his foul temper and obnoxious behavior.

[b][color=green][size=5]Billy’s Temper... Again[/size][/color][/b]

We picked up NY and his chica at Crystal’s and drove back to the hotel. When we arrived back at Field of Dreams, I asked Billy for a drink from the bar, as the fridge in my room was empty. He shouted: “No! The bar is closed!” And the fact that he changed his mind later will not change my opinion of him. The guy’s a fucking asshole!

Anyway, I ended up spending my first night in the DR alone…

[b][color=green][size=5]Strip Clubs Summary[/size][/color][/b]

Casa Ana Mirian: Salida 500 DOP + Girl 1500 DOP [1]
El Bohen: Salida 1200 DOP + Girl 3300 DOP [2]
Crystal’s: Salida 1300 DOP (1000 DOP) + Girl 2700 DOP [3]

[1] Based on info provided by Billy.
[2] Based on my experience with Maira.
[3] Based on what NY paid. He negotiated 4000 DOP with his girl (salida included), and was then able to negotiate a discounted salida of 1000 DOP, as it was closing time.

Good information but did you really expect Billy to buy your drinks? Basic curtesy is look after your driver.... that saved you money. Normally when my crew stays there we hire a driver - say $80 a day or less and they are at your beck and call to get you everywhere... 4 guys $20 a man... solo you need to hook with others there like NY.

When I was in POP last month El Bohen was closed for remodling. Is it open again now?

I agree Billy should not be buying you guys drinks. You're in a country where gas goes for $4.25 a gallon. For his time and effort you guys should have felt committed to buying him a few drinks. If nothing else you could have put some gas in the car and let it go at that.

For the person who asked about Bohen, my sources tell me it is set to reopen this week or next.

Loso[/QUOTE]

Hold on Loso, you expected Billy to drive you around, find you women, and pay for your drinks ? Unbelievable. As he was going above and beyond the call of duty, you could have at the very least bought the man a drink, passed him a few pesos for gas.

Lets not forget it is a business he is running, not a charitable organization. I think your experience would have been quite different had you at least picked up the tab.

Those salida and puta prices you were quoting are way too high for those putas. You would do much better walking the main drag in Sosua. Forget the strip joints, huge waste of money. With the relative ease of scoring chicas, there is no need for strip joints. I absolutely refuse to pay any salida. There is no need.

I was quoted by a driver that the prices for Crystal girls were 1000 Salida and 2000 for take out.

However, Loso 69 quoted these prices:

Casa Ana Mirian: Salida 500 DOP + Girl 1500 DOP [1]
El Bohen: Salida 1200 DOP + Girl 3300 DOP [2]
Crystal’s: Salida 1300 DOP (1000 DOP) + Girl 2700 DOP [3]

Are these prices correct? 4000 pesos for a Crystals girl toda la noche? It's about $120usd

The room I was in at Europa had a microwave and a stove.

Field of Dreams is close by activities such as ATV, Buggy riding. It's also close to a race track with go carts.

If you are looking for full on action take the Europa... if you want a cool spot to hang with a couple of friends and some chicas FoD is the place.
Once you have been to the DR a bunch of times you will learn that it is nice to get away froim the hustle and just venture there when you want to.

There are some good sports bars across the street - casinos - both major towns are close enough but far enough - quality food and decent priced drinks - and Billy and crew are great hosts if you are not some cheapskate expecting the world...

who cares if TMZ or whoever was comping you... that should have been all the more reason to be generous with the other people.

Escort King, Jazz47, Sylvester,

Did I say I expected Billy to pay for my drinks? Anyway, here are the details:

At Casa Ana Mirian, Billy [b]volunteered[/b] to pick up the 1st tab (280 DOP). At El Bohen, NY picked up the tab for our drinks (280 DOP). I bought my chica a drink. Billy and NY also treated their chicas to a drink. As the bill for the girls’ drinks came to 950 DOP (way higher than the previous bills), I asked the other guys to help me out. I owed them about 300 DOP, which left 650 DOP split 3 ways, so I asked Billy and NY to contribute 200 DOP each. Billy reluctantly paid. NY said he’d take care of the next round instead. When NY wanted to settle the bill at Crystal’s, Billy had already paid for his drink(s). NY paid for my drink.

Of the shared bills:

I consumed 580 DOP worth, and paid 750 DOP (170 DOP more than my share).
Billy consumed 510 DOP worth and paid 480 DOP (30 DOP less than his share).
NY consumed 500 DOP worth and paid 360 DOP (140 DOP less than his share).

I would have been happy to pay Billy a few drinks for driving me around. In fact, I did! But if he expects me to pick up the tab when he orders 300+ DOP ladies’ drinks, he can bloody well forget about it!

Sylvester,

Billy wasn’t going above and beyond the call of duty by driving me around. As I said, that was prearranged and part of the deal with an investor in his hotel. After checking out of FoD after one night, I spent the remaining 13 days in Sosúa (report in Sosúa section). I never paid a salida.

DR Monger II,

That’s what NY told me he paid for the Crystal’s chica when I ran into him again in Sosúa. She wouldn’t go for less, even though it was closing time. He said she was good, though.

I mentioned the microwave at the Hotel Europa. I don’t remember having a stove, but you may be right.

Loso[/QUOTE]Sounds like business is pretty bad if the cost of a room for $50 a night includes free transportation around the town, unless Field of Dreams transporttion services is getting commissions from the clubs they take people to. I don't know if that is the case or not, but it might account for some of the quite high prices for companionship mentioned here. Generally the clubs pay about 500 pesos to drivers who refer clientele.

Put your requests in to jetblue at this link [url]http://www.jetblue.com/email/citysuggest.asp?intcmp=where_we_fly1[/url] to start flying to DR from JFK to Puerto Plata so we dont have to do the long drive from Santiago to Puerto Plata/Sosua anymore or any long connecting flights from JFK to Miami or San Juan, THANKS HAVE A HAPPY AND PROSPEROUS MONGERING NEW YEAR TO ALL THOSE ON ISG!!!!!!!!!

A reminder that there are worse things to be than hookers:

Last week three "Clowns fum da Hood" arrive at BB's.
They want lesbian shows, they want to be able to swap girls mid-trick, in short they want everything, -except the responsibility to pay the bill.

One has a girl overnight and in the morning refuses to pay her.
"He didn't invite her." (??)
(We are to believe she was so overcome by his charm that she couldn't control herself?)

I know the girl and she is squared away. She is always helpful to the guests, doesn't lie or cheat. She doesn't throw herself at anyone and will not go to a guest's room without being asked.

Clowns like these make even mongers look bad.

If the low-life turds (or others of the type) read this (if they read).....

Stay home and try to scam the crack-hoes on your corner.
You are disgusting and an embarrassment to everyone around you.

You have demonstrated that hookers have more class than you do!

Can you tell me how much one hour sex , in the Cristals rooms?

Somebody can tell me the adress and phone number of Cristals?

I have to complaint about a chica , if not she will do the same with other guys.

I never know what goes on in the minds of some people. Most of the difficulties that guests at BB's experience are a result of poor communication. I have always told "newbies" to speak with Charo or Elizabeth (Charos great new assistant) to make sure that all involved know and agree in advance as to the expectations of their date.

I just returned from 8 day at BB's and I again had a great time...met some new girls and enjoyed all of the guests. I learned alot and offered my advice to those that asked for it.

There was another communication error that occured while I was there. A girl I have been with several times on each visit was eating breakfast alone and waved me over to join her. She speaks a little english and I offered to by her breakfast as I always do. She said her date from the night before was paying for her meal as he told her to "go eat breakfast" as he wanted to sleep. Time moves on a Charo sits with us to eat and I buy her breakfast. The girls bill is given to her "date" and he says he did not tell her he was buying her breakfast. She understood "go eat breakfast" to mean that he would buy her breakfast. I bought her breakfast....no problem. I wanted to do that from the start anyway. Many mornings I will have 3-4 girls eat with me...its fun and they appreciate the gesture. It the little things they will remeber when you or I return.

The girls talk with each other about us as often if not more than we talk about them.

Hello Guys,

If you need a motoconcho in Puerto Plata just rimember to stay away from Coolito.

He will tell you a price, but after he will tell you that the "gasoline now costs more, ect. ect." and wants more $$. Actually this is his trick to find customers and take from them "tourists prices" and not regular porice.

I just can tell you from Playa Dorada to Crystals he will tell you 200 Dominican Pesos first, for 2 ways but after when you have to pay him he will ask you 350! So you will have to discuss with him.

He is a lier!1 Attention!

Remember his name is Coolito, with a Yamahhh motor and usually he have a baseball cup.
