Jakarta

[QUOTE=HappilyMarried;1544325]I'm certainly no Tom Cruise or filthy rich (but I'm not poor). On the occasions I've been there I've been in a small group with a mix of local girls and my ex pat friends. My scores have been with the girl who managed the table reservations there (I won't name her) and a few nights later her friend. The other two were with girls the group befriended on the night. This is why in my initial post I tried to point out the difference between red sq and places like bats due to my experience there. And yes, I still end up paying whether it's in the morning or buying drinks.[/QUOTE]If you have a group of expat friends who regularly book a table at red square buying bottles of alcohol and are well known there, that's a big advantage. Especially if they have local girlfriends and are known to treat those girls "royally". In that case, the girls will see you as a prime target since you are their friend. That's a big difference between going there alone and milking a beer all night.

Another place that isn't too bad is the bar at the JW Marriott. Sometimes that place has nice girls out for a good time and it's normally fairly crowded on the weekend and ladies night after 11pm.

My experience in Red Square is that its mostly a hooker joint. If you want normal girls, rarely do you find them there.

I travel atleast 15 times a year for work in Jakarta and hit BATS every night (easy and safe). Glad to report that over-nighters are always available at 1mn. No need to pay over that. Only once have I spent 1. 5mn but that was for a university party girl. And I NEVER choose the older / fat ones.

Was there 2 weeks back and did the usual rounds of the club. One petite hot girl in a red dress was the one who attracted me. She wanted 2 mn. No way.

More rounds at around 1 AM, asked her what she wanted to do. Offered her 1 mn and off we went to my room. Good sex. Speaks great English and had a French boy-friend. She had said that she was from Bali but now said that she is from the very east of Java. Don't remember the name.

Good figure with nice small tits and good performance. Only problem was that she did not perform in the morning. She said that I did not ask for it in the club. My fault! Anyway, since it was not agreed, off she went.

Once again. 1 mn for a reasonably good looking girl is the max you should pat at BATS. I have pulled for even 600K. I am not the price police (I hate that) and if you are happy to spend a couple of mill, then that's your choice.

Cheers,

McM.

P. S. Why is the board so quiet

Hi,

I will be visiting Jakarta next month. I wanted t know if Hotel Santika Taman Mini is a Girl friendly hotel. Is jakarta similar to pataya where you can take the girl straight to your room without informing anyone or do you have to inform the front desk about it. Also can anyone suggest a nice place to find girls in that area.

Cheers

Cheers[/QUOTE]RTFF and you'll quickly learn that virtually every hotel in Jakarta is girl-friendly, no need to inform the front desk about anything.

A nice place to find girls in that area? Unfortunately, your hotel is not located close to any of the best mongering spots. The classic pick-up spots (Red Square, CJ's at Hotel Mulia, BATS at the Hotel Shangri-La) are all quite a distance from the Taman Mini area. There are a lot of bars and clubs in the Kemang area, which is a bit closer, but still a decent taxi ride away.

You're a long, long way away from the places in the northern part of town, such as Hotel Alexis, Hotel Travel, Hotel Classic, Malioboro, plus Kartika Spa, Berlian Spa, the Stadium Night Club (risky!) , etc.

Don't underestimate Jakarta traffic. You could be in a taxi cab for an hour or more each way, depending on what time of day you're travelling.

Just curious. Why did you pick this hotel? It's obviously close to the well-known tourist attraction Taman Mini Indonesia, but it's nowhere near downtown. It's on the way to Bogor, if you have business there.

Actually my client had suggested that place. His office is in Bogor and I would have to go Bogor everyday. Any suggestion about where or which hotel I should stay so that I could easily travel to the office and enjoy the evening also. I guess I am asking for too much but can't help as I am new to this place.

As Spearsman said. Taman Mini / Halim area has nothing going on and will add a decent commute to the popular bars you mention, and a very long way from Nth Jakarta.

[QUOTE=OmBule; 1535939]I have a question for those here in the republic for the long-haul: Do you find it better to tone up or tone down your local savvy when playing the game?

I have some profiles on social networking sites where I completed the "about me" section in Indonesian (although my Indonesian is meh, maybe). And I've noticed that since I've done that, I've got less replies. Or more Zzzzz nicey-nice girl replies.

Similarly, I wear batik, which goes over well professionally. And I think that the ladies go huh, om bule, and walk on by.

It's like I'm too local, with all of the negative things that that implies. When I wear Western dress, it feels different.

So I am thinking: I should tone down the localness, maybe pretend to be passing through. Simplify the social media profile with only a dash of local language and bust out the Sundanese, gaul and Javanese (mongo!) later.

I wonder how long-haul residents have changed their game over the long haul. And I wonder if it is just me getting to reflective and melancholy as I get older.

PS Thank you to the members like Hilo77 and AsianRain, who had kind words about my last report. And thanks everyone for the information on the board.[/QUOTE]As someone who's spent a total of over 3 years in Indonesia, just passing thru, I don't see any need to tone anything down. Speaking the language has a lot of advantages. There are plenty of girls with very poor or non-existent English who tag along with friends who do speak English. If they can't find someone who wants 2 girls they're left out in the cold. When they find someone who speaks Indonesian they're delighted (even if, like me, you're not that far off hitting the big 60. Though, thank god, Asian girls don't seem to have cottoned on to the fact that a lot of grey hair is an indication that senility is not so far away). They're generally not as demanding and don't have the airs and graces of some of the English speakers who think that you're demeaning them if you offer a normal rate or refuse to buy them a juta rupiah dress. If you come across 2 of them together they'll probably be happy to go together for just a little more than the cost of one on her own (had 2 for 600 000 recently). I also wear a fair amount of batik (Western clothes are just too hot when you've recently come from a much colder place) and have never had any negative reaction from it. To them you're just a bule wearing batik. I wear whatever I want, even to business meetings, and it doesn't make a scrap of difference. Once ate Padang in a company boardroom pake tangan. Firstly, they were relieved that I wasn't a fussy bule who needed to be taken to a western restaurant, and they were tickled pink that the bule was eating pake tangan while they were all eating pake sendok.

I am looking for some information for a horny little female friend of mine. We were talking about me going to ++ massage places, and she asked me where she could go to get a similar service. I have no idea, and while it might be a long shot asking here, who knows what you fellow mongers might know.

Anybody have any insight as to where the females in this city go to get some naughty massage service?

However, if you really want your girlfriend to get drilled by some massage guy, you could go to Red Square or Sun City and ask one of the sexy dancer chicks there for a phone number of one of the male dancers who also duals as a gigolo. I'm sure he would be happy to come to your place and massage and screw your girl for a fee if you want. Another way to find those kind of guys is the personal trainers in the gyms around town. Many of those guys work as strippers for parties and ultimately gigolos if the ladies slip them an extra tip. I know this because I used to date some of the sexy dancer chicks over the years and have talked to some of those guys and listened to their stories, not because I have ever paid them to screw my girlfriends.

If you're looking for your girlfriend to enjoy some girl-on-girl action, several spas, such as Maribaya, have a couple of truly bisexual girls working there. Some of the girls working the night club scene may also be bisexual (or lesbians who are just trying to make money).

Esteemed Senior Member Smoothy has some good suggestions. Another option is to contact Jakarta After Dark (JAD) ; if any one knows the answer to your question, it will be him. JAD is an advertiser and long-time member of this board (his member name is "Jkt After Dark 2"); go to the Classified Ads section and go to the "last" (earliest) posts and you'll find his contact info.

Good luck! And I look forward to reading a post from you if you have any success.

Thanks Smoothy and Spearsman for the responses.

Good point on the male or female MS, I did not think of that, I will find out and it could go either way with her, she is into pretty much everything.

So there would be no issues taking her into a place like Maribaya? That could be kind of fun.

I will definitely report back if anything happens. Not sure how far this will go, she says she is from an important respectable family and does not like to be seen entering or leaving hotels with me which is an interesting role reversal.

[QUOTE=Lion55;1539187]For fellow members who might want to try out Ainee (or Jali, as I'd recommend both) , their Mamasan had them situated (at least the week that I was there) , in the right hand corner of the room from where you enter the club, near the door that goes back to the bedrooms on that side. If you happen to spend a session with either of them, treat them well. I expect that you don't find a GFE at Classic every day.[/QUOTE]If I remember right, Classic has 3 levels (basement, level 2 and level 5). Which level was this? Planning to visit later this week.

I'm sure there are several members willing to go the extra mile and provide a massage:p - or perhaps she was hinting for you to give her a massage?;)

I can understand the issue of entering hotels and a major issue is that she doesn't want to be seen by people she may know. You need to look at what hotel you go to and who frequents that hotel. It becomes much more difficult if she has a high profile. That's where alternative entrances make a difference. Eg Citadines can be entered through the rumah sakit; Akmani can be accessed directly from the car park avoiding the reception area; Ritz Carlton through Pacific Place; Harris through FX; Hyatt and Kempinski similarly through their respective shopping malls. I've run through this kind of problem many times and there's always a solution. Of course, I've also had the old baseball cap and big sunglasses routine too:D.

How good is Fav hotel and can you suggest a good place in a walkable distance around Fav hotel where I can find some good girls to pickup.

Cheers[/QUOTE]Which Fave hotel are you referring to? Their website lists 9 of them.

Lower priced, clean, but nothing fancy.

The fave hotels at Glodok and Pasar Baru are near the North Jakarta monger area (Alexis, Malioboro, Travel, Classic close by).

Fave hotel at Melawai very near the Blok M area; Fave at Kemang and Gatot Subroto not too far off. The Senayan area (Red Square etc.) also not too far.

Personally, I prefer to pick up bad girls. Good girls don't want to be picked up.
