[QUOTE=Tony4543; 1254922]Hello,
Need to get away for 3-4 days, and am thinking to head to DR. I was thinking to check out BlackBeards as I speak no espanol and am solo. I'm also debating whether I shd research well and plan something in Sosua. Any feedback is welcome.
Thanks,
Tony[/QUOTE]For a short no hassle "fish in a barrel" trip go to Black Beards, no Spanish needed and you can be safe alone.
PM me if you want more BB details.

JJ[/QUOTE]Ha ha! Another one hooked!
Just got back from my trip from BB's. Before I start realize I try not to just repeat what has been posted several times before but report my point of view of what has changed and things I notice. Good or bad. The day to day stuff is the same that has already been posted. Hopefully this report helps newbies and those that have only been down once or twice. Regulars don't need it. But before I start I had an awesome time and Martha and Tim know how to run a hotel, running this hotel between dealing with the girls and the very few regular assholes that go down there from time to time I know has to be challenging at times. Anybody that has been to BB's falls in love with the waitstaff and they once again were excellent! Another nice touch was the mamasan went around several nights and asked if anybody needed an appointment with a girl before they left for the night. Now for the dirt!
Cliff (Night Manager). I guess they call him the night manager. I original meet Cliff about I would guess 6 months ago, right before his first day, actually hung on the beach with him before he started. Have been down since he started so this was the third time I have seen him and the second while he was working at BB's. Gentlemen the guy is good! The guy is out front all night long and notices everything. For example one night they had the TV out front on some Telemundo bullshit and without anybody saying anything he comes in and changes the channel to the NCAA selection show. Hell I even saw him notice some crap CD and had it changed. Bottom line a great asset to BB's.
Phones- The last time I was at BB's the girls were out of control with being on Facebook on the smartphones, you know the phones some of you schmucks buy for them. Every time they were on the damn thing it was driving me crazy, I thought arent they working, they just wouldn't put them down, all I could think of is some of you dumb ass mongers continuously shoot yourself and me in the foot. Sorry I regress, anyway I found the girls last trip were even asking to play pool and crowding around the window over there by the pool table to get coverage. I actually made a note to myself that when I returned I would look at what type of phone a girl had and I wouldn't play pool before interacting with them. Well BB's is proactive once again because within 5 minutes of being there the phones I noticed were no where to be found. They can't have them anymore between their shift hours, what a difference. Great move! Unfortunately it spoils you and when you go outside the problem is there, at least not at BB's.
Bikini contest vs. Ms Universe Weekend- I don't want to say one is better then the other because it is personal preference, it just has been a while since I have seen a bikini contest. There is a major difference between these weekends now, more then I remember. The bikini contest brought a lot of energy through out the afternoon with a lot of drinking and partying but the problem is if your somebody like me that likes a night life until 1 or 2 am this is not the weekend for you unless you want to leave BB's. The contest ended about 6:35pm and because the girls have been there past their shift they are ready to roll out and to be honest I can't blame them. After the bikini contest BB's tries to get the party started but the gringos are partied out. By 11:45pm the mamasan was going around to the 8 or so guys down stairs asking if the were going to take a lady all night because they were leaving. But truth of the matter is the energy was gone way before that point and I don't blame her for sending the girls home. It forced me to go out that night something you don't have to do if you go down for the Ms. Universe contest, on those nights the excitement starts at 6:00pm and carries over to the disco upstairs. Hopefully this helps in picking the weekend you prefer.
There is now a book- One of the first things I noticed is the pictures on the wall are down and replaced with a map. My guess. And it is only my guess somebody told them to take them down. But the only reason I mention it is that they now have a book you can ask for to see pictures. I honestly didn't realize it I happened to stumble upon it.
Los Mangos- for those that like a gym there is one down the street I have used my last 2 times down for 25dollars a week.
Food- Good like always!
To sum it up- What can I say I love the place. They treat you like Norm when he would walk into Cheers and sit on his stool! The staff and girls have excellent attitudes, meeting the regulars which 99% of are really fun to hang out with, the beach were you hang at a table under a tree with a BB chica drinking a cold beer, its all great. John should be proud of this place and I am already setting up my next trip! Like I always say. Someday I am really going to miss the place!
Hope you got some useful information.

[QUOTE=Bahram;1250402]Is there somewhere I can really read about black beards? The current website is scrubbed clean of interesting stuff.[/QUOTE]Look up some of my past reports, as I know I have answered this question many times before.
I recommend BB to all new visitors to the DR. Once you understand the environment (and hopefully some Spanish) you can try elsewhere.
(But hell, for quality of service, and many other factors, you won't beat this for "professional" girls).
I never had the time to waste trolling elsewhere, and had no desire to screw with the mind / heart of a "normal" girl.
Things are so much simpler with a working girl and Blackbeards makes the whole experience pretty fool proof.
[QUOTE=Charles Pooter;1247831]Yes, if she has a cedula and hasn't already been banned from Blackbeards, but why would you want to?[/QUOTE]I did it, no problem. Went to Puerto Plata for 2 women I had met online. I assumed non-pros may not want to go to bed on a first date. So went to Blackbeard to have a "backup plan". Stayed there two days and on the second day my chica was in for some serious fun from the get go. Did some really wild dancing on some of the small local discos along the main Santiago boulevard. Ended up in the pool of Blackbeard.
Blackbeard is definitely a well managed property. Room was clean and spacious. Great selection of girls. The Jacuzzi is fantastic. Food was OK. Staff could have been more friendly. Definitely worth the $10 more per night over what I paid at the New Garden in Sosua the day before.
On the first night, after I drove my non-pro back to her parent's house by the Teleferico nearby, I booked a chica from Blackbeard. She had friendly eyes, a well-proportioned slim body and a charming smile that could not conceal her shyness. 4 weeks on the job. Still full of dreams. Kept her the morning after for some great time in the Jaccuzi, with hot nude action.
This said, I am not sure I will come back to Balckbeard. The "fishbowl" ambiance can be suffocating. I guess I just like the hunt too much. And the place is too small to really get some good partying going. Or I need to try on week-ends.
But this was my first trip to the DR, and I am glad I tried Blackbeard. If you don't speak Spanish, I highly recommend.

It worked for you to take your chica to Blackbeards (though I will take some convincing about the "non-pro" label) but anyone else looking for somewhere to take a non-pro (or a chica posing as a non-pro) might consider Whitebeards, the other side of Puerto Plata. Cheaper than Blackbeards, many think a nicer environment, good restaurant, less obviously a brothel (though the murals don't help - are they still there?), helpful American manager, and much easier and cheaper to access the daytime facilities of Puerto Plata and the nightlife of that city and of Sosϊa. But if you are looking for additional putas to fuck, like Sammy, then of course Blackbeards has a much larger selection.
I am headed to BB in May for about 5 days. What should I expect with regards to cost for the girls and other entertainment? Thanks.
[QUOTE=DownTowner;1253067]If you want to know something about Black Beards PM me.[/QUOTE]
Wiredawg welcome to the site. I will be kind as many were to me when I first joined and posted. Please read the information that has already been posted many times over. If after that time you still have questions ask them or PM me and I will be happy to help. You will enjoy the reading and you will be ready for a great time.
BB is very reasonable. Girl in jacuzzi 500 p is a great way test drive the girl. 1 girl 2hr 1600 p 1 girl all nite 3000 p. 2 girls 2 hr 3200 p. Sometimes getting the girl you want can be a problem. Iwa s there and the 2 girls I wanted were not available. I think bb gets boring after 2 days. Sosua is close and is loaded with fine chicas. BB food and women are very good but it is a cat house with a hotel. I like a little hunt for my pussy. BB is fish in a barrel.

"Carnival recently announced the construction of a cruise-ship terminal in the Bay of Maimon, situated some 15 minutes from Puerto Plata, the north coast's most important city. Giora Israel, Carnival's Vice-President of Ports and Development, met with Dominican authorities to explain what the US$65 million project consisted of. The new facility will include a modern port that will accommodate two 4, 000 passenger cruise ships." [url]http://www.accessdr.com/2011/08/carnival-cruise-lines-to-build-port-in-puerto-plata/[/url]
Years ago I stayed at the Coral Marian All Inclusive Hotel in Puerto Plata (costa dorada complex, near field of dreams and the Brugal rum factory). I visited during off-season (September or October) , rates were good. It was a nice AI. I invited a chica from Santo Domingo to visit for a day.
For guys who go to Puerto Plata (Blackbeards) , the Jarabacoa Riders looks like fun. [url]http://www.facebook.com/Jarabacoariders/app_129982580378550[/url] Depending on traffic, I would guess, Jarabacoa should be less than 90 minutes from Blackbeards.
From Dominican Today: "If adrenalin-frenzied adventure is your thing, Jarabacoa Riders has your dose of nature, culture and extreme sport, but along an ecologically-minded dune buggy route. Riders executive Dania Medina said among their three tours figure the Light Route, of one hour and around 28 kilometers, and the Full Route of 49 kilometers and nearly two hours. But if the unbeaten path is your thing, look no further; the Extreme Route of 58 kilometers and nearly three hours will thrill you with river crossings and mountainous gorges."

In fairness to passing fair and accurate information I understand OldKool gets bored after 2 days and if you like Sousa or have many trips under your belt I really can understand it but most people don't get bored after 2 days at BB's. After 2 days you haven't even seen all the girls and eventually you will meet some good friends there. If you have never been there as I assuming is the situation with Wiredawg, no way your bored after 2 days, a matter of fact you will feel you blinked and it is over. Some people think BB's is boring because they like Sousa. The the thing to keep in mind is BB's and Sousa are not the same, they both have a different feel, its not an apples to apples comparison. It is simply what you prefer. I prefer BB's for many reasons. Tons of pros and cons to each.
As far as shooting fish an a barrel I always find it funny that BB's is "shooting fish an barrel", what is Sosua? Answer " shooting fish in a barrel", its just easier for us mongers to kid ourselves there. Of course this is a good thing in both places but there really isnt a hunt in either place.
It was the same scenery to me. Many of the girls seemed bored to be honest. Casas are not my cup of tea. Sosua is an open casa LOL no argument. I enjoy a semi pro every now and then. On my last visit to Sosua I had 3 chicas whose combined ages was 58. There age had me by 2 years combined. Two of the girls were making cash to pay tuition very fresh and new to the business (first week in Sosua. Pros can be jaded and cold. BB the girls are slim by house rules which is not my preference. The variety in Sosua was a thrill. I had a hard time getting time with chicas I wanted in BB. To be honest I saw everything and it did not change much. The food and service at bb were fine but in Sosua it is the circus.

[QUOTE=Orgasmico;1265491]Best back-in-the-day spot for me was Frank's place in Puerto Plata. I would take that over Pasions, Black Beards, Crystals, El Boem, etc. That place was buck wild with lesbian shows and everything else. It was like CMP with 50 more girls and 100% more freaky. I seen dudes get intimidated by the number of women in there. I've seen a couple of old heads that infrequently post on here that I know were there.[/QUOTE]It really was the best for a couple of years 2005/6. I was just in time to catch its last few months under Frank's management. Its success was its downfall. Dumbass Dominicans thought it must be an easy way to make money and pushed Frank out. Within two months it was nearly dead and has stayed that way ever since. Before and after Frank it was called Luz Marie's after the landlady. Their gross monthly take now is probably less than Frank was paying them for rent out of his profit. And that is despite drinks and chica prices doubling.
Many mongers will recognize the girl on the right (at front). Still plying her trade on the North Coast and, to give her credit, looking not greatly different from six years ago until you get real close.
The demise of Frank's signalled the end of Puerto Plata as a major mongering centre. Long Beach with its many bars and fuckshacks was cleared earlier the same year and El Chakerero and the after-hours club at the Harbour closed around the same time. On the plus side Dominican Billy had recently opened Field of Dreams but he had missed the boat as the main action had moved to Sosua.
Puerto Plata is still better for picking up non-pros and semi-pros but you need some Spanish and to know your way around the city, so not great for guys on short trips who want to pack in a lot of action into a few days.
RIP Frank.

RIP Frank.[/QUOTE]Success? Frank wanted out because the whole thing was a headache and was losing money, plus some other personal reasons I won't go into here on a public forum. He was very, very happy when he was able to get a Dominican guy to take over the lease. Huge problems with staff stealing, crates of beer disappearing out of the back door, electricity bills, cash loans to chicas, etc. The house took a 500 peso salida when chicas went out of the place with guys, but that 500 pesos often went straight to a taxi driver for a commission. Many nights there was hardly anyone there, though occasionally he would get a group of heavy drinking Dominicans. The foreign mongers he got in there hardly ever wanted to spend any money. A few girls were very popular and were taken out almost daily, but it was a very one sided distribution curve and many girls were hardly ever taken, so they became expensive inventory. (Frank kept Excel spreadsheets on salida data). He had 20 to 25 girls in house. Not the kind of business you would want to invest in.

Yes I have met people that stay there weeks at a time and I would agree that would be a bit much but at the very least you could use BB's as a jumping of point to PP. The only downside is that cab BS if you don't drive and if you meet someone you may have to get a cabana if you don't want to mention where you are staying. I will stand by my statement for newbies reading the board you will not even get close to bored at BB's. In all due respect I have been to the DR many, many times and stayed in different parts of the country and I completely disagree with the statement "the law of diminishing returns kicks in quickly" as is the proof of the large number of regulars that return to BB's 4 or 5 times a year for 6 to 10 days!
I was at BB for 2 days and was bored. Living in a brothel is boring. Most of the girls are bored and certainly not excited or interested in being there. There truly not much to do other then fucking and eating both are great but there is more to do in life. BB is a nice thing to do but after Sosua I am not sure I need to go back. BB is safe and easy but the girls are all similar no big girls. Do not get me wrong it was fine but most of the girls just sit around. Once you do Sosua BB loses some of its luster.

For example few know any English, yet if they had a group class for 1/2 hour each morning in which mongers could participate within a few weeks they would have considerable enhanced their professional skills. However, they did not get to be where they are by applying themselves.
The environment inside the bus taking me from the airport to the suburbia of Beantown, could not be more different. Soft music from a baritone voiced suave DJ peddling James Taylor as contrasted to the loud music played inside the bus when I got back from Puerto Plata to Santiago this time.
Everything around the place was loud; people do not want to listen to music they want others to listen to their music not to speak of scooters and cars with their thundering noises on the malecon on a Sunday late as I walk back from a restaurant to the hotel. But I am getting ahead of myself.
I would not dwell much on the nitty gritty of my trip this time but would just highlight things that were for me, curious. After all, no point re-inventing the wheel, eh?
1. Got to Santiago on a delta flight via JFK. I detest that huge behemoth of an airport. Besides, they want to check my ID for a beer. NYC has a life of its own -outside of this world, so I told the bartender, that I do not feel like showing my ID to her and would do without the beer as well.
2. I took a carro de ruta (PA) those ramshackle 6 person + driver carrying toyota corollas of 20 years and paid 75 pesos to get to the hotel. 25 pesos for me. 25 peson for my backpack in the trunk and 25 pesos for an extra seat so I do not have to squeeze my butt every time someone else pops in.
3. My local Orange phone was dead (apparently for no transactions even though I had a large balance) and the wi-fi at the hotel had conked out so it took me a while to set this back in motion. The people at the phone office were nice that I could actually keep the old phone number despite having to buy a new chip for 100 pesos. A girl was waiting for me to go eat at a local department store (they all have restaurants in them) and so once I got the phone connection, I told her to come by and after that it was the usual routine. She came to the hotel etc. I had never met this girl before. The only thing that is worth mentioning is that she at the hint of the first drop of you know what in her mouth, ran to the bathroom, leaving me high and. Hmm dry!
4. The interesting thing happened the day after. I was calling a number which I thought belonged to a woman who was supposed to come and visit. She is dark with dark hair. The woman I spoke to when I mentioned the girl's name said something different. Her name that is. I was confused but what the heck, they have two three names there. In the evening I see a older white woman looking for me. What? She looked anything but who I thought I would be seeing. I looked confounded seeing her and in the end, it turned out she is the aunt of the girl I was supposed to be seeing and I was given the aunt's number (by the girl as she did not have a phone) and the aunt wanted to see me.
The woman was smart. But she would not allow me to go anywhere beyond sucking her beautiful white breasts those reminded me of the breasts of white pigeons soft and round. First meeting and that was that she said as she quaffed away at Johnny Walker Black bought at the airport duty free. $37 for a liter. Later at night, after dinner, I dropped her at her house. Nice house in the UTESA area with a car inside the compound. Go figure. Next day, she called and wanted me to tell her if I contacted her niece too. I told her that for the sake of everyone, I was not going to address any other question on her niece so I would not have to tell lies, she understood and did not ask any more questions. The thing is I could not find another day to set up time with her even though she called several times. For a change I had enjoyed a conversation with a older woman, apparently she did too.
5. I met the young niece the day after. She was nice and all that but 'no sex' she had her period we all know about that so I tried my best to salvage the situation and her oral skills were a lot better and let her go after a meal. No interest in pursuing her any longer.
6. On the matter of period, I did have another woman coming from Moca and she indeed had period. She was on the last leg and so the sheet was slightly stained and poor girl she felt so embarrassed by that I could not console her. In the end, she came and I could not keep an erection so long but she made up for it by returning another day and it was a lot better for me.
7. I had another woman come to see me because of another comedy of errors. The girl I got to know gave me a number that belonged to a sister. Who apparently had a baby two months back and the girl I was speaking to was apparently pregnant, the sister told me and is throwing up. So in this instance, I had a sister substituting and we went all the way. Good stuff.
8. Two women blew me away. They did not come to see me. One I blew away because I thought she was raising too many objections not to speak about always people being late gets on my nerve and she in a way bore the brunt even though I wanted to make love to her. Not having done so the last time. Two other women came and we ate together but there it ended. Well, I actually was smooching during the lunch but they did not want to come to a hotel. And frankly I had no intention of going to a cabana even though I do not think that was their issue. I had another woman coming to see me from La Vega, but the attempt at sex was so bad that I decided to call it quits and she went back home the same night even though she was supposed to spend the night.
9. I met by chance a woman at the gate of Bilbao bar because I was stuck there with heavy downpour and she too was the same; she wanted to visit me another day but it did not pan out, because of time constraints. By the way, what is the deal at Bilbao. I just saw women dancing with guys. Anyone knows?
10. I had a married woman (the rest were either single or live without a man) visit me at the hotel. Until today, she is the only one who has shown me her breasts on camera. The sex with her was good but normal. Actually, I must re-state this. Sex with all the women I had was about as normal as it gets. No kinky stuff, no anal, some specifically said no. They were happy to do it but it was never the porno stuff. Actually a girl not included in the list above refused to do oral either!
11. One girl came from a pretty far away place about a two hour + trip. She had a strange accent and so I had terrible time understanding her language on the phone. Anyway, she came with her sister and a friend of the sister and I decided that I did not want to have to do anything with her. So after a good meal, at the Las Colinas mall, paid her some money and cut them loose. She sent me a bunch of text messages later but it is hard to manage high-maintenance people. God knows she does need one who can dedicate the time to this young woman.
12. For the last two days, I decided to go to Puerto Plata. This time, decided not to take the usual caribe express etc bus. Took a smaller bus (Javilla tours). The ticket was no cheaper though. 120 pesos but it was a somewhat different experience in that the windows were open and music blaring as I had referred to, at the beginning. The woman selling ticket was rather attractive for me with large 'endowments'. Tried to see if I had any game without having any time. Nah. My lame lines did not work.
Once I got to Puerto Plata, I had to figure out where to go sleep so took a scooter. And for 30 pesos got to the first hotel. This was fairly close or walking distance to the seaside.
A girl I knew from last trip came to see me there after a four hour trip to spend the night. I also met with Frannie that day for a short time by the beach. Later the girl came back to the hotel with a friend of hers who I had met last time. So we drank Bailey's (another duty free thing) together. Went for dinner on the beachside road and came back walking a long distance. (oh. On the way back sneaked into Crystals. Not for me at that price) The two girls were still there they had left by concho (by the way, being a conchista for a living is not too bad when you have a women sticking her breasts into you all the time). They were trying to take pictures of each other. It was about 11 PM. Here, I must confess, I did something naughty. I got between the two women on some pretext and the friend was on my right side and I started exploring her with my hands the backside and then her breasts, while chatting with the other girl. Unfortunately there was no way, I could have her all alone so all that I could do was kiss her during a small hiatus when the other girl was momentarily absent and to which she reciprocated eagerly but she did not show up the day after which I wanted her to do; perhaps friendship still means something to some people.
13. Second and final day in Puerto Plata, the girl left, and I was as Pirandello said, 'in search of authors'. I went for a walk in a poorer section around the hotel and met a young woman as I ran into her walking the other direction. That then showed me her child's photo on her phone I was awestruck. Anyway, she was game to come with me for ONLY 5000 pesos so I gave her 100 pesos for food and said good bye. Later, I went to Frannie's house. For some ideas. I was loathe to go far, as in Sosua, but fortunately I got lucky as I was going back to the hotel. As I have already recounted the event in the forum. At night, taking Frannie's suggestion (I am afraid he is going to charge me again for his consulting hour) , I went to an amusement park. Long story short. Brought two girls to the hotel. I really do not know what to do with two women at a time but they were together. Later at night, it rained like in biblical times. The sky had so many holes and it poured and poured and I stayed alone outside on the balcony and went back to my childhood.
14. I came back to Santiago for the last night and called one of the young women who had already visited me. She came and then after sex, wanted to stay overnight. I was a little weary but realized she really wanted it so what the heck. So she stayed the night, we went out to eat and came back and she had a blast watching TV in the room all alone while I was chatting outside with the people I met at the hotel as below.
15. On a final note, met three guys. One was Italian and so we enjoyed drinking and chatting into the wee hours at Pica Pollo restaurant. The Chinese lady was so thrilled by her understanding of our cacophony that on the third day or so when I re-visited her restaurant, she told me that 'my friend' was there earlier.
A south African whose job is to ferry out yachts and sail boats from place to place and who does not know where home is. He travels across the globe from the islands to the Baltic sea. We spoke of Mandela and Gandhi. Who some of you may know started his political life in South Africa.
Also met an African American (no AA please. Reminds me of alcoholics anonymous) who completely ignored me first time I said Hello. Later the same evening, I was speaking to the South African guy (both these two stayed at the same hotel I was staying in Santiago) and he suddenly apologized saying he thought I was a local guy who spoke good English and uses that ploy to panhandle. I told him that I thought he was from NYC as many from there are surly as he was. He laughingly acknowledged that. He grew up in Brooklyn and turned out to be a beautiful person. He is big and tall and was into track. Running 100/200 meters winning college scholarship and now, after military, guess what? Into technology and so we had great time speaking with each other. He told me his class size was 30 in high school and when I told him that mine was 50, his jaw dropped open. As he said, one of his girl friends' who he said he should have married, told him that he was wearing his 'under-privileged status' as a badge and he realized it was true and understands what she meant even more when he speaks to people like me.
In all, my shooting the breeze with these three guys was worth as much as all my rendezvous minus the sex part of course....LOL.
Overall, my experience this time was somewhat mixed. I love the women there (and everywhere). I bumped into a woman a student at Med School, in PUCMM. At the McD I visited because I had no cash on me and I was hungry so I thought I could use my credit card there. Who spoke to me in very good English; to another woman who would not take a candy from me inside the route taxi not to speak of a banana I offered to her and to the taxista, the third one I ate (oh. 10 pesos for three bananas- I had that much only in my pocket after 25 pesos for the taxi) , to another woman who does modeling for Presidente beer, I met her at the third floor of Las Colinas and probably the most attractive girl I met this far with long legs. She even volunteered her number actually put it in my phone. I did not like to be jettisoned by some but that is part of life and juggling that many women and making sure no one gets hurt (by knowing of the other) was a challenge mostly because I hate to lie. If I have to say one thing, it is that, the best experiences are when they are not planned but with a small window of time, when do I have that luxury?
P, S. : On the way back to the airport, paid the usual 75 pesos and got the name and number of the young male driver. He is from Monte Cristi-A place I would love to go and visit and who knows, perhaps he can be the driver?
[QUOTE=Tempoecorto;1266133]9. I met by chance a woman at the gate of Bilbao bar because I was stuck there with heavy downpour and she too was the same; she wanted to visit me another day but it did not pan out, because of time constraints. By the way, what is the deal at Bilbao. I just saw women dancing with guys. Anyone knows?[/QUOTE]Not bad!
Bilboa is a freelance casa in house or takeout, notice the chalkboard near the center of dancefloor they keep track how many times the different girls turn tricks that day. It is open noon till the wee hours of morning but doesn't get hopping till dark or so. Can't be specific about prices but had a chick there quote me 500 pesos my Spanish wasn't that great then. Beers are cheap and cold there .
I have had it on the map for a while.

Thank you[/QUOTE]Jao, when I was living in Europe, I used to do this thing: be the flag bearer of India. I behaved in an exemplary manner as I felt being the ONLY dark skinned non-local (India was NOT as fashionable then) in a small town and in a large company, in a strange land would enhance the image of my native country. I do not bear that cross any longer.
A) So I do not check how many people of Indian ( or Paskistani...we are the same people despite the 60 year old enmity) descent are in JFK or anywhere else.
B) The hard life (that of overcrowding and consequent general distrust of others) of New Yorkers tend to make them "surly" (defined as sullen/morose/irascible etc.) and not their ethnicity. Jews are equally surly as Italians. Not to speak of Indians or any other group. Clearly, if you have just gotten "off the boat", it will be awhile for this culture to seep in so what you described (good indian people) may not manifest itself to the contrary immediately but with time, it would. As it is the environment that changes them. Contrast this to people in upstate New York, which I happen to know well, where pleasantries are often exchanged among total strangers.
C) I strongly recommend that you do not visit India any time soon. All the airports suck and big time. I understand they built a new airport in Delhi recently which I have not seen but so that you know, I have in all these years, only flew once on an Indian Airline to go to India, long back and in Business class. Now Jet Airways/Airlines that flies out of NYC has tried to emulate Singapore Airlines and I am told they are good. The concept of cleanliness and hygiene, to my mind, is a strangely alien concept to the Indian mind where dirt just outside your house is someone else's problem; Or cleaning the bathroom beneath your station if you are not assigned by birth to that job only- which will be made abundantly clear to you on all flights to India as you visit the restroom, including even the Lufthansa's of the world as you fly in to India.
I can also speak of other attributes (good ones as well) we Indians have including that of hypocrisy (the way it despite being the land of Kamasutra, looks furtively at all things sexual) but I would stop here. By the way, Sikhs are as much Indian as Moslems or Hindus or Jains or Parsees or Bahais or for that matter Catholics are...both in good and in bad. The founder of Sikhism was a Hindu as was Buddha.
Personally, a "good" Irishman is better to me than a "bad" Indian as I endeavor not to use a broad brush and in fact, mentioned in my comment that "many" but not all New Yorkers, to me are surly.
Am I anti NYC? At a personal level, my daughter ditched Harvard to go to Columbia and perhaps I am still sour about it, not to speak of her existential dilemma: root for the Patriots or the Giants but it is no longer my problem. LOL!
Disclaimer: All that I mentioned here is purely my considered opinion. I do not have any monopoly on truth whatsoever, just so we all understand where I am coming from.
Thanks.
P.S.: I do think that ID ing everyone (including not a spring chicken like me) in bars in JFK is simply outlandish....but then that is why New York is NEW YORK.

(Not sure if this the correct thread, but as I am new, not sure where to post the question)
First about myself : I am middle aged, living in US. I don't have any real 'mongering' experience, except occasional visit to local escorts (as occasional as, once in a year.).
So long time, I was looking for taking an erotic vacation, but I do have other commitments and cannot move easily to any mongering activities.
Now I am having a chance, that I can take a bushiness trip, for 3. 4 days. I have long read reviews about the adult activities in DR and finally decided to take plunge.
I am think about 2 options. 1. Oxygen resort 2. Black Beard. I have heard nice thing about both and read reports (though not mush about Oxygen, as I would like too)
I know O2 is more than twice, costlier than BB, but here are the facts:
1. I am a rookie in mongering.
2. I don't a know word in Spanish (is 'Holla' Spanish?).
3. I am of middle age.
4. I like the hot chicas in O2 but still have my doubts, if they give same kind of service as BB.
Any good advice, tips from experienced guys will be really appreciated.
Thanks

Hi guys when I do post it is on the SD board but last night in Chicago I met a Dominican 10 by my standards who said her sister works at a club called Rio Verde in PP. It sounded like a pick up joint with the chicas having rooms on site. Anyone know of this bar?

Hey Folks! New guy on the block with a question or two for experienced BB travelers.
I am planning a first trip to POP this winter and looking at staying at BB's due to several factors (newbie with basic spanish / convenience / running solo) as well as the FANTASTIC background info / reviews I have gained from this forum. I have signed up for
The newsletter (WOW!) but there are a few q's concerning "etiquette".
1. I have discovered the rates for "companionship" via previous posters, is this however a "fixed" donation under house rules or will I be expected to negotiate individually with each chica?
2. I have also seen comments concerning "Mamasan"-does she handle all the particulars or is she more of a reference / guide to the girls and what they offer?
3. Tipping policies for cleaning / wait staff. What is the consensus-is it better to tip maids daily / at end of stay and if so what have folks found works best (money or small gift?)
Appreciate the input folks! I am really looking forward to this trip and hoping to begin a regular thing. I have been utilizing escorts here in the states for sometime however I am looking forward to a more mongering type experience.
Nos Vemos!
[QUOTE=Enricos;1266738]. a club called Rio Verde in PP. It sounded like a pick up joint with the chicas having rooms on site.

The chicas will not be to our taste but you do get the occasional diamond in the rough as in most of these cheaper Dominican places.
But it is mainly a dancehall with the usual mix of Latin dances (bachata / merengue / reggaeton / salsa) and most of the clientele are local couples and groups going there to dance, rather than pick up putas. It is in Cangrejos, which is the village on the main road between La Union and Montellano. The club is adjacent to the iron bridge over the Rio Verde (which is indeed a "green" river). A good place to mix with the locals if that is your idea of fun. I don't think there is anywhere like that in El Batey? Maybe in Los Charamicos?

Thanks[/QUOTE]1. Everybody is a rookie anywhere. Experience in mongering is not required. To start out it is like dating with a twist. I am sure you have smiled, showed interest, asked out girls for a date.
In mongering venues you can be sure for the right price almost all girls are ready to go with you.
These are prostitutes and you need not worry about wining and dining or act of seduction.
Once you go and hang around disco bars nursing a drink just look around to see if a perticular girl interests you. Just like anything everybody has their likes and dislikes. More so in mongering because you are.
Buying sex. Most often looks are not everything. Big boobs do not mean real. It maybe heavily padded or fall like a rock. Pretty looking face maybe hiding pock marks behind make up. Flirty in bar may not translate.
In good sex in the room.
All mongers have experienced good and bad experiences and anywhere in between. Bargain hard about the price so that if it is a good experience you can give her a good tip and repeat her later. If the girl is not good.
Chalk up to experience and you have not invested lot of money. Always check the girl as to friendliness in the bar before taking her.
2. Sex happens without any language problems. Just try to learn basic spanish words. Most girls know basic english. If not there are always fellow mongers and bar staff who will translate.
3. Thanks to viagra and like even a man of 80-90 (heffner?) can get it up and have sex. There is absolutely no need to satisfy the girl. If you are happy that is good enough.
Ofcourse there are some girls who will go with somebody and will not go with somebody. It has nothing to do with age or money.
4. Hot chicas does not mean excellent satisfying sex. If you are into arm candy, yes they make that. If you have money to splurge you go to O2. BB will be cheaper than O2 but expensive than getting girls on your own.
Ofcourse BB is a brothel and resort sewn together. Girls are right there at set prices.
For me I like thrill of the chase and catch.

[QUOTE=Sammon;1266815]Bargain hard about the price .[/QUOTE]Good helpful post generally, Sammon, but I would just like to point out there are lots of mongers who would not agree with you about the "bargaining hard". I am not saying you are wrong, just that many of us take a different route.
I decide what I intend to pay and if the chica is not happy with that I politely and smilingly end the discussion. There is always another chica or twelve. OK, if she then immediately agrees to my price I will still take her if her attitude seems right. Some chicas new to the gringo market have heard exaggerated reports of the money to be made and may try on a silly price. I explain what is the going rate (or, if you prefer,"my" going rate) and many then cheerfully accept, but that hardly constitutes "bargaining hard". I may afterwards add up to 500 pesos propina for a totally satisfactory experience.
I am an ex-pat in the DR and mostly hang with other ex-pats and frequently returning visitors. I have found that the more time guys have spent there, the less patience they have with haggling, probably because cheap pussy is no longer a novelty and they are under no pressure to cram as many fucks into their precious vacation time as less experienced visitors.
The other point is that, as we all know, the chicas exchange info on the punters and if you are a regular face it is not good to have set too many precedents of paying higher prices as they will all expect the same. With occasional visitors this is not an issue.
Once I again I would stress that I am not contradicting you, just pointing out that many have a different strategy. As ever, mongers will find out what works best for them and should pursue that, whatever anyone else says or posts.

[QUOTE=Llttf;1266840]You forgot to mention to take your ear plugs, they blast the music there. I know how much you enjoy that![/QUOTE]You are exactly right. I did mean to mention it and forgot. And I do hate it! But really it shouldn't need mentioning because most of these Dominican dives are the same. At least with Rio Verde you can, if it is not raining, sit outside, but that rather counters the aim of mixing with the locals. On my rare visits I compromise by sitting at the edge, on the open side, which slightly reduces the sound but I can still watch the dancing and the chicas. But to sum up, not really worth visiting unless you enjoy dancing Latin style.
I use to like the Haitian club in Puerto Plata, Kakoabaka (now demolished to make way for a taxi parking area) because the music was at a more bearable level. But I guess that was down to Haitians not having the money to buy big speakers (or whatever is needed to make eardrums bleed) rather than any more refined sensibilities on their part.
I do seriously wonder about the staff who work in places like El Consulado (where the same decibels are confined to an even smaller area) for 8 or 10 hours a day, six days a week. Some are there for years. Surely they must suffer hearing problems later in life?
I'm thinking about one day sightseeing tour to Santo Domingo from Barba Negra. There will be 2-3 people. We do not mind buses (if they are comfortable and air conditioned) , but car with a driver would be better. What time should we start? Any ideas on transportation (rent a car is not an option)?

The bus would be 5 hours in each direction plus you need time to get from BB's to the bus terminal. A driver could get you there in about 4 hours from Costambar if he drove like a maniac (ask me how I know). That doesn't leave you much time for sightseeing and a driver for the day won't be cheap, probably $250. USD+. I do have an english speaking driver with a fairly new van that works out of Puerto Plata if you want his number pm me.
Using the bus is much easier and is very affordable for less then 10 bucks you can go almost anywhere in the DR. I takes 4 to 5 hour either way bus or car. The buses are comfortable and sometimes has talent on them. I would get a room and spend the nite. SD has discos, casinos and SWs. It is not Sosua but you can have a good time and see another side of the DR. I would not rent or hire a driver unless I had more money then I need. I would rather use the money to pay for my fun. IMHO the buses are excellent.
[QUOTE=Manizales911;1267119]Logistically it doesn't make sense to do a day trip from the north coast to la capital. The bus would be 5 hours in each direction plus you need time to get from BB's to the bus terminal. A driver could get you there in about 4 hours from Costambar if he drove like a maniac (ask me how I know). That doesn't leave you much time for sightseeing and a driver for the day won't be cheap, probably $250. USD+. I do have an english speaking driver with a fairly new van that works out of Puerto Plata if you want his number pm me.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=OldKool;1267180]Using the bus is much easier and is very affordable for less then 10 bucks you can go almost anywhere in the DR. I takes 4 to 5 hour either way bus or car. The buses are comfortable and sometimes has talent on them. I would get a room and spend the nite. SD has discos, casinos and SWs. It is not Sosua but you can have a good time and see another side of the DR. I would not rent or hire a driver unless I had more money then I need. I would rather use the money to pay for my fun.

(1) Take the bus. Metro is slightly better but Caribe have more timetable options. And take a light sweater because of the aircon in the bus.
(2) Stay overnight or you won't have time to see or try anything.
Unless you have a lot of time at BBs or a fat wallet for a hire car and hotel room I would drop the idea. You could do Santiago within the same day, though.
[QUOTE=CAZ391; 1266750]Hey Folks! New guy on the block with a question or two for experienced BB travelers.
I am planning a first trip to POP this winter and looking at staying at BB's due to several factors (newbie with basic spanish / convenience / running solo) as well as the FANTASTIC background info / reviews I have gained from this forum. I have signed up for
The newsletter (WOW!) but there are a few q's concerning "etiquette".
1. I have discovered the rates for "companionship" via previous posters, is this however a "fixed" donation under house rules or will I be expected to negotiate individually with each chica?
2. I have also seen comments concerning "Mamasan"-does she handle all the particulars or is she more of a reference / guide to the girls and what they offer?
3. Tipping policies for cleaning / wait staff. What is the consensus-is it better to tip maids daily / at end of stay and if so what have folks found works best (money or small gift?)
Appreciate the input folks! I am really looking forward to this trip and hoping to begin a regular thing. I have been utilizing escorts here in the states for sometime however I am looking forward to a more mongering type experience.
Nos Vemos![/QUOTE]1. Rates are fixed. Every chick is the same ST and LT rate. No negotiating necessary. They know what's up. Just tell the chick up front everything you want her to do in bed. It's possible that you may have to slip the chick some extra pesos for things like CIM or anal. However with the competition, some may do it just so they can make some money. All depends. I can't stress enough the importance (in my opinion) of stating what you expect up front. Short time is sex up to 2 hours. Some of them BB chicks think that means 1 nut and they are out the door. I made sure 2 hours meant 2 hours or at least 2 nuts, before we even set foot in the room. BBBJ was a must as well.
2. As for mamasan, my experience with mamasan is that she served as more of a reference / guide. You don't have to go to mamasan in order to get a chick in your room, unless they recently changed the rule. I was last there in 2010 and making a return trip this June. I got with the Mamasan for two reasons (1) A chica did something that pissed me off. Ordered drinks on my tab without asking me first (only complained one time. Mamasan is kind of like management for the girls) and (2) Chica Recommendations. One time I was just looking for a chica who was excellent at giving head. Being that I knew that the mamasan had customer filling out surveys, I knew she would know. LOL. Loved that survey and the questions. Wonder if they are still doing that.
3. Hard to answer. As for me, when I saw them leave the room, I just walked up to the maid and gave her pesos. I did the same routine every day. If I missed the maid, I would pay double the next day, always in pesos. Just something I always do.
Other notes from my stay:
* The beach sucked and was boring.
* I always paid as I went (food, beer). No tab until the end of my stay for me.
* The Italian restaurant around the corner from BB was outstanding.
* BJ in the jacuzzi was around 500 pesos.
* My first bikini contest. Greatest thing ever. Every bikini contest after that. Why is this thing taking so long to finish?
* I stayed for 8 days. Will never do that again. It will be 4 to 5 days max in June, then another 8 or 9 days in Sosua. Loved my stay and will recommend the place, but like Frannie and OldKool stated, got pretty bored and was ready to leave on day 5. However, I can say that I was fucking about 3 chicks a day for those 5 days though! Thank you LA PELA PILLS!
Looking forward to the late June return!
Any other questions, just ask.
BB is something you have do at least once. There is a web site I found the chicas is a must if going to BB. It rates the women that are at BB. You can know who is good and not so good. For me sosua blew my mind. I have never seen so many beautiful available women. It is shocking. BB is very nice but Sosua had 100s of women. The whole town is a brothel.

Windex-your info REALLY hit the spot! Resolved the few Q's I had for now. I am looking at a winter trip (have to plan this far out due to job travel). I am hoping to eventually hit Sosua and simply stay somewhere chica friendly and use the beach and
The clubs, but I wanted to get a first hand feel for the lay of the land (pun intended!) since I will be soloing.
Thanks again guys- your input is truly appreciated!

[QUOTE=Enricos;1266738]Hi guys when I do post it is on the SD board but last night in Chicago I met a Dominican 10 by my standards who said her sister works at a club called Rio Verde in PP. It sounded like a pick up joint with the chicas having rooms on site. Anyone know of this bar?[/QUOTE]Thanks guys for your input relative to the Rio Verde club sounds like my type of club down and dirty. Just saw the Dominican 10 in my opinion today her sister may be a 3/5 but she is not.
I'll be in Puerto Plata at the end of the month, and looking forward to the fun in the sun. Unfortunately my setup is less than ideal. Don't speak Spanish, and will only be able to sneak away for 3-5 hour excursions while the wife is otherwise occupied. Will be staying at Lifestyles Resort, which is just a couple miles west of Blackbeard's. Any advice is appreciated.
I'm thinking my best option is either to rent a second room at BB (would they even let me rent for just one day no notice?) or to stick with massage parlors. Do the strip clubs offer in-house short-time rooms? Are there other options in PP?

From past reports, it has also been mentioned that BB has no problem with renting out their room for short periods as well (again, as long as there is a room available). What I mean by short periods is if you want to just arrive and bang one of their chicas for a couple of hours. Heck, there's guys who bang chicks in the jacuzzi. Not me, I like a little privacy.
Also BB is perfect for those who don't speak Spanish. There's people on site (as well as a few chicas) who speak English. If you want to verify prices and whether they have an issue with you arriving on site without a reservation and / or the cost of a short time room, just go to blackbeardsadultresort. Com and send them an email.
As for strip clubs, only spot I know of in Puerto Plata is Crystal's and you can have sex in one of their rooms at the nightclub. Chicks there go for 100 bucks though, whereas shorttime with a BB chica is around $45 for up to 2 hours. Crystal's is not my type of spot, but who knows you may find your dreamgirl in there. Heard there's some beauties in there.
That's all the knowledge I have on this subject. Search the forum and you may find some other ideas.

another option to get your groove on is to take a publico or taxi to sosua straight to passions, peter, the owner has 20-30 girls on site and for rd$2500 (about usd$64) you get a clean room with a shower and full service for an hour. have a few beers, pick out a chica, bang her, get a massage, take a shower, have another beer, head back "home"! a taxi will be a bit more expensive than a publico but will take about 30 minutes. blackbeards is much closer, but passions is worth a shot.
you can google passions sosua for a peek at the talent.

[QUOTE=Choboman;1268388]I'll be in Puerto Plata at the end of the month, and looking forward to the fun in the sun. Unfortunately my setup is less than ideal. Don't speak Spanish.[/QUOTE]The "no Spanish" is the limiter for you. In the Puerto Plata area it effectively limits you to Cristal, Whitebeards, or Blackbeards. Your best bet is Blackbeards because you can rent a decent room short-time on site (but only if they are not already full!) and there is a good selection of chicas. Whitebeards is somewhat further away, near certainty of a nice room being free for short-time, but restricted choice of chicas and those mostly between 2pm and 8pm. Doing chicas on site at Cristal is a bit squalid. You won't have to pay for the room but then you will have already paid through the nose for the chica.
One advantage of staying where you are is that there are several cabaρas (motels specifically designed for short-time sexual encounters at 400 to 600 pesos) very nearby. Guys have reported going there and asking the staff to conjure up working girls for them, but I would hate to rely on that. However if you pick up chicas in Puerto Plata you could take them to one of these cabaρas for an hour or two and let them find their own way home when you return to your nearby hotel.
Time would appear to be of the essence. You don't have time for the "hunt", which to many of us is the most enjoyable part of mongering. You need a sure thing of good quality within a retricted window of time, and for that you must be prepared to pay a premium. That is why the Windex Man and Buscemi are correct in pointing you to Cristals, Blackbeards or Passions.
[b]Passions[/b]: at least 2000 pesos round-trip by private taxi (time 30-40 minutes each way). Or 125 pesos each way by public transport (time 70-80 minutes each way, including two changes). At least 2500 pesos for chica full-service. No extra charge for nice room and shower. Decent choice of chicas from midday increasing to around 20 late afternoon / early evening.
[b]Cristal[/b]: at least 400 pesos each way by private taxi (time 20 minutes each way). Not worth messing with public transport. At least 4000 pesos for chica full-service for one hour. No extra charge for squalid room. Small selection of chicas from midday increasing to around 30 by 8pm.
[b]Whitebeards[/b]: at least 450 pesos each way by private taxi (time 20 minutes each way). Or 60 pesos each way by public transport (time 35 minutes each way, with one change). Around 1500 to 2000 pesos for chica full-service for one / two hours (not fixed price or time, negotiable). Plus 500 pesos to hire a room for a couple of hours. Small selection of chicas from approx 2pm to 8pm.
[b]Blackbeards[/b]: at least 250 pesos each way by private taxi (time 10 minutes each way). Not worth messing with public transport. 1700 pesos for chica for full-service for one / two hours (fixed prices). Plus 600 pesos (?) to hire a room for a couple of hours [i]if available[/i].
Incidentally, any time your time window is really restricted to (say) two hours or less, and you are prepared to drop your standards, you could visit one of the Dominican places on your side of the city just to get your rocks off. 30 pesos each way by public transport. Do girl on site for 1000 to 1500 pesos (no extra charge for room but extremely squalid and keep an eye on your billfold) or take her to a cabaρa if you have time (400 to 600 pesos). General standards of chicas are dreadful but you do find the occasional diamond in the rough. And at least you will see (and smell) a bit of the real Dominican Republic you won't see in Lifestyles.
I live in Puerto Plata and would be pleased to try and give any further information you require if you PM me. You don't say how long you are staying and often you will be able to slip away. If often, there are other adventures to be had, but I assume no more than three or four times, in which case stick to above suggestions to ensure satisfactory results.
Never take out any more cash than you will need or anything you would hate to lose (cameras, watches, jewellery, bank cards, etc) and take a photocopy of your passport (not the original).

By the way, in my "timings" for using public transport, I forgot to add whatever time it takes to walk from Lifestyles to the main road, and also I am not sure if that is a safe walk coming back in the dark.
[QUOTE=Anupk; 1266587] (Not sure if this the correct thread, but as I am new, not sure where to post the question)
First about myself : I am middle aged, living in US. I don't have any real 'mongering' experience, except occasional visit to local escorts (as occasional as, once in a year.).
So long time, I was looking for taking an erotic vacation, but I do have other commitments and cannot move easily to any mongering activities.
Now I am having a chance, that I can take a bushiness trip, for 3. 4 days. I have long read reviews about the adult activities in DR and finally decided to take plunge.
I am think about 2 options. 1. Oxygen resort 2. Black Beard. I have heard nice thing about both and read reports (though not mush about Oxygen, as I would like too)
I know O2 is more than twice, costlier than BB, but here are the facts:
1. I am a rookie in mongering.
2. I don't a know word in Spanish (is 'Holla' Spanish?).
3. I am of middle age.
4. I like the hot chicas in O2 but still have my doubts, if they give same kind of service as BB.
Any good advice, tips from experienced guys will be really appreciated.
Thanks[/QUOTE]Forget O2. BB is a well-run resort and the chicas are great, playful and drama free. No mongering experience or Spanish necessary. Except for the large crews that roll through their cliental is mostly middle age & older. Read the PP form. You will find good trip reports and other useful information.
Thanks everyone for the great advice! I'll try to take in as many of these options as I can, and bring back some pictures to post after.
Question about white and orientals girls in DR.
I've been putting it off for too long, but it's time for a DR trip. I've been to England, Germany and Dubai and I need some place closer and cheaper. I've read, watch many videos about DR and it looks like I'll be doing a few days in blackbeards and NG in Sosua. But my questions is (other then going to Santiago) can I find white Latina and Asian girls in POP and downtown Sosua?

Growing up one of my favorite stories was the Jungle Book by Rudyard Kipling (born in India to English parents) , the Disney movie and I had the toys of the Indian Boy brought up by a pack of wolves in the jungles of India, with a friendly bear and black panther.[/QUOTE]Yes, good point, both Trinidad and Guyana have large populations of Indian Asian descent, because these people are descendants of indentured laborers who were imported from the far east to work in the sugar plantations after slavery was abolished in 1833. The original poster seems to be looking for white girls, not light skinned.
Kipling wrote:
East is East.
And West is West.
And ne'er the twain shall meet.

Thanks for your response, LOL well if Columbia is good enough for the secret service, it's good enough for me. Lololol It appears maybe I should be looking at there or Costa Rica.
But isn't Columbia dangerous, I luv the hobby but I AIN'T GOING TO RISK MY LIFE OVER IT. LOL Besides what's attractive about Dominican Republic IS IT'S CLOSENESS TO the States and a less expensive trip that can't be passed on.

He was convinced that joining the army in World War I would make a "man" of his rather bookish, short sighted son John. John's head was blown off about ten days after he arrived at the front in France. Gung-ho militarism was less evident in his writings after this.

Speaking of Kipling, there is another British author, and I am not sure how well known he is in the West, that I loved, was Jim Corbett. He lived in the middle of nature and his account of his time and place are "inolvidable".
Was giving a fellow BlackBeard's traveler a ride to Sosua and we stopped by WhiteBeards to check it out. There were only about 5 chicas there at the time three not so good looking and two on par with the BB girls. The guy I was with looked at the rooms and said they were a little better than the rooms at BB. If I remember correctly the rate was $45 / night.
Attached are some pictures of the place to give you a feel for the layout.
Heading down to Puerto Plata in little over a week for my first trip to DR. I'll be with a small group of my friends. We are staying at Lifestyles Resort (I did not pick). After reading this site it looks like we made a bad move. Is it a trip killer?
We are looking for P4P and non-P4P.
I have another couple of questions too.
Is it better to use US$ or DR$? If the peso is better where should we exchange our money?
Any must-do spots for a group of 27-31 year olds?

If you are all coming just to fuck chicas wall-to-wall then it was not the best choice, but if you got a good flight/hotel package by no means a disaster. You can still have a great time and recce other places for a future trip.
See post #6062 below for my two cents. You will find it below the English Literature seminar and book review section.
Except in places specifically aimed at the gringo market (and they will tend to be more expensive anyway) it is always better to use pesos, even though you have to pay a commission to change them. Where best to change depends where you are. Western Union is good and the best place in Puerto Plata city is RUSA, very close to the Central Park. But it is not worth paying for a taxi to go somewhere else just to save 3 dollars on exchange rates. I am always amazed at the guys who do that. Most banks have a wall poster showing their current rates so you can check before committing. They charge a few cents more than a dedicated money-changers but if you are already at a bank hardly worth going specially to RUSA unless you are changing many thousands of dollars (in which case it might be).
I did not mention non P4P in my previous post because the guy I was trying help was on limited sneak-out time. But Puerto Plata is far better for non-P4P than Sosua. Try La Copa in Costa Dorada or the string of bars along Avenida Luis Ginebra starting from the stadium end, of which the best is El Furgon. You will find it an uphill struggle without reasonable Spanish though.

A Colombiana pro in Cartagena:
"She told the newspaper that she and a girlfriend had been approached by a group of men in a club. After she and her friend had been bought two bottles of vodka, she agreed to return to the hotel room of one of the men. But in the morning, he failed to pay her $800 the amount upon which they agreed. Instead, she said, he offered her 50, 000 pesos, the equivalent of $30. Eventually, a Colombian policeman stationed in the hall helped to argue her case with two other Americans from the club who emerged from their rooms. When the escort lowered her demand to $250, they gave her the money and she left."

I met plenty of Colombianas in New York City (many with fake tetas) and they seemed like gold diggers.
$700 airfare and 16 hour travel time to Cartagena, forget about it for me (a little over 3 hours travel time to DR and $300 airfare, much better). I have met a good number of flat assed, squeeky voiced Colombianas. There are more lighter skinned chicas in Colombia and some guys think that is worth paying a premium for. I'll take a morena Dominicana over any light skin Colombiana, any day of the week.
I highly doubt Secret Service agents would be shaken down by Dominican Police Officers (it is a matter of respect, which I doubt the Colombian Police officer had for the Americans). I would imagine the Colombiana gave the Colombian Police Officer a $ tip. You were the one who said Colombians have their act together better than Dominicans (Colombians know how to produce in large quantities powdered death, cocaine) and I believe you also stated to the affect that you believe most Dominicans are not-intelligent.
$800US for less than 8 hours of work and a bottle of vodka, maybe you are correct, some Colombianas may have their act together and have learned how to scam. I guess Cartagena could be a spot for young retired millionaires.
The money the US government spent on hotels, transportation, food and other items in Cartagena, Colombia for that summit and then US citizens are scammed (I would bet Republican politics is involved in this, as it was with former Governor Spitzer).3 Americans who had jobs before traveling to Cartagena, Colombia, now are out of those jobs, after spending time in Cartagena, Colombia.
I have been reading the DR thread on the ISG for over 3 years and Never read about a Dominicana demanding $800US and then getting a DR Police officer to argue for her and help her get $250US (for less than 8 hours). If $250US is the going rate in Cartagena, Colombia, that is one more reason why I won't be traveling to Colombia.

Which man-eating leopard book you are speaking of? Man eaters of Kumaon. By Corbett?

Gentleman of the Board! I humbly come before you seeking knowledge!

After reading the PP board, I decided to stay at BB for the duration of my trip. I kinda like the option of having a "safe" home base to venture out from to check out Sousa and everything else. If I decide "to take the training wheels" off next trip I'll know what to expect. Plus I like to spend alot of time on the beach, in addition to that I plan on getting open water qualifed at Scuba Elite. So I think I'll spend enough time off the grounds not to get bored.
So my questions are. Drum roll! LOL!
1. What should I buy at the duty free to keep in my room for the girls? I was in Boca Chica in 2010 and most of the girls were asking for Johnny Walker black or Remy. Whats the perferred drink at BB? Should I buy it at the duty free in Miami or the duty free at PP?
2. I like that the prices are set at BB. I'm willing to pay a little extra to not have drama. But if a chica gives me good service what is a reasonable good tip? The equivalent of 10 dollars. 20? I don't want to [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord140][CodeWord140][/url] off a good provider, but I don't want to "spoil" it either. Thanks!

I would not get them anything really, but on the other hand you could save yourself a few dollars buying them drinks at the bar. Often they will tend to ask for whatever they think is fashionable or expensive. A bottle of rum would be useful as it can be mixed with Coke to make a popular local drink. Be careful offering the girls too many drinks as they may drink too much and then either throw up or fall asleep on you and you probably won't get the desired result. One drink as a relaxer won't harm though. I think the duty free shops are only on the way out. I don't think you can buy on arrival at Puerto Plata.
2. You don't have to pay extra to avoid drama. If you give the impression that you will pay more, you may get more drama. If you like the girl a lot, give her an extra 500 pesos, which is about $12, for her baby or her mother. She will probably appreciate it. Don't say it is a tip for good service.
Thanks Frannie! When I said I'm willing to pay extra to avoid drama, I meant the extra cost of staying at BB vs being in Sousa which is supposedly cheaper. Thanks for your help!

2. I like that the prices are set at BB. I'm willing to pay a little extra to not have drama. But if a chica gives me good service what is a reasonable good tip? The equivalent of 10 dollars. 20? I don't want to [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord140][CodeWord140][/url] off a good provider, but I don't want to "spoil" it either. Thanks![/QUOTE]Late to this discussion, but an inexpensive idea for gifts would be to hit a dollar store or an online sale for lip gloss, nail Polish, etc.
Damn near anything that says Aeropostale on it, too.
In my experience, most of the chicas asked for a tequila at the bar.
(Oddly enough, they preferred the house brand vs. The brands we are familiar with in the states.)
You can get some good prices on liquor for there or to take home at Jenny's, the grocery in Costambar.
Good luck,

After reading the PP board, I decided to stay at BB for the duration of my trip. I kinda like the option of having a "safe" home base to venture out from to check out Sousa and everything else. If I decide "to take the training wheels" off next trip I'll know what to expect. Plus I like to spend alot of time on the beach, in addition to that I plan on getting open water qualifed at Scuba Elite. So I think I'll spend enough time off the grounds not to get bored.

My last trip I bought about 7 small bags of sun chips, [url]http://www.sunchips.com/[/url] (a box of sun chips of 30 small bags, variety pack, is about $11US at Sams Club, about 40 cents a bag). Small bags were good to have, with large bags of chips, the chips can get stale or go soft from the humidity, if you don't eat them right away.
Most DR chicas like Baileys. From what I have seen, the duty free prices are cheaper than the supermarket and liquor store prices in the DR. Tequila, Cognac, Whiskey, Vodka, Rum, I have seen chicas in the DR drink. At the airport in Santo Domingo, you can buy at the duty free when arriving into to the DR, I don't know if that option is available at the Puerto Plata airport.
[QUOTE=Tempoecorto;1273646]Dumb question. What is a good vibrator feature wise, what is a good mail order place to buy it from and what is a good price? Is small better than big. For relative ease during travel and any other pertinent info. I have never used one so I wonder if this is a piece of male fantasy or women actually like the idea. Thanks.[/QUOTE]In my limited testing, the one in the picture was the favorite of all the girls. They typically like smaller vibrators for the clit and not for insertion on most occasions. I would say they definitely enjoy using a vibrator and I have had several chicas ask me to bring them one on my trips.
You can typically buy vibrators at your local adult book store and of course online. There used to be a sex shop in Sosua but it was closed when I was there in March. Pricing varies but the small pocket rocket and clit vibrators run about $5-10 but the better the quality the more they cost. The one in the picture cost me about $15 plus two C size batteries. I always wanted to get some of the remote control eggs and have one of the girls sit down at the bar while I ran the remote. Problem is they cost about $40.

The diving in the bay is only fair and the best sites are on the western wall out by the airport. You'll be spending most of the time diving Three Rocks.

I spent four days at BB in December and had a great time. Interact with the girls, spend a few pesos and they will treat you right. Keeping some beer and booze in your room is a good idea. Your late night guests and you will want some party material. Baileys & tequila are the most popular but the chicas will drink what ever you have. The motel shuts down around 12pm-1pm. Make sure you have your date line up by them because all the unattached girls go home and there are no other options in the area. I did not tip much, never more then a couple hundred pesos. Mostly I showed my appreciation by giving repeat business to the chicas I enjoyed.
I went to BBs about a month ago and had a REALLY REALLY REALLY GREAT time. It was my first time in the DR so I really want to thank all the posters here for the great input which helped immensely. My question is the return home. I was stopped by CBP in Newark and was questioned thoroughly about why I was vacationing in the Dominican Republic ALONE. They really seemed to me that they suspected that I was some kind of sex pervert the second I mentioned that I was coming back alone from the DR. Has anyone else had this happened to them? If so, what came about of it? And what was the end result of it? I appreciate the input. Thanks!

Last November, getting in at the wee hours in Boston from Santiago, I had my bag given the run down. But I was not alone. Whole bunch of people.single males that I can remember, had to stand and wait given that they had very few inspectors. I was very upset and after a while asked also see a superior. The interview was as described by you and I had only dirty clothes to bring in. Besides, I do not believe in pictures but you could see the guy's a-has -that he knew well why someone would visit DR alone but he did also look at my passport - "oh, you were in Dubai" etc. Towards the end, a boss showed up and kind of apologized with the usual "we have to do it" and gave me a form on which to complain. I have to say, it was the first time in my whole traveling life, I had that experience. On another note, I travel to EU on my EU passport and passport control flicks through it. Just a cursory glance compared to the "welcome home" drill given by immigration here to a US citizen. Eh, que voy a hacer?

Both asked if they can take one. My cousin smiled and gave the rest of the box to share.
Kerrie offered round trip transportation for 10 bucks per day. I hear the taxis in Costambar are outrageous so I guess that's good. Should I tell her I'm at BB or have her meet me down the street? LOL!

[QUOTE=Bogiemaker; 1273533]I have found that a good vibrator can increase the fun in the room. On my last trip I had one girl ask if she could just go up to my room to use the vibrator. She said "you no pay. No freaky freaky I only use vibrador". I told her fine with me as long as I could watch. Of course I ended up paying anyhow since we both had a good time. I usually leave any sex toys since I don't need them and they make a good gift.
As mentioned in other threads, perfume, candy and clothing can make excellent gifts that do not cost too much.

If you call ahead and have a cab or driver pick you up from the airport and take you into Costambar they allow you to use them the rest of your trip.

I had it set up with another guy at BB's to jump in and share the cost. We step out in the street and the cabs had followed my guy in and started yelling only one while holding up his finger. So my guy says he would be suspended for a month because of this terd and we literally had to take separate cars to the same flight so that Costambar a-hole could make his money. I was furious and have sworn from here on out they will not get a penny from me for a tip ever again.

Just back from a five-day visit to Lifestyles in PP, and had a great time. A few observations:
Black Beard's:
[list][*]If you're not booked at BB's but plan to visit for a 'short time', call ahead. The first time I stopped by they had no vacancies.
[*]The selection of girls at any time varies considerably, anywhere from just a couple girls to ten or so, and with varying looks (light, dark, tall, short, skinny, thick). All of them claim to be 20. 28, but some of them looked younger to my untrained eye. So if you don't see what you like when you first stop by, come back later and you'll likely find something that suits you.
[*]Prices there seemed very reasonable. $25 for 2 hour stay $90-$110 for full day. Girls are around $45 for a short stay and they don't haggle / upsell.
[*]My two experiences here, the girls had great attitudes. Lots of kissing / snuggling / GFE, no rush, took direction well. Fully recommend!
[*]Location is kinda remote, and in a shitty neighborhood, but taxis are pretty cheap and will wait on site to take you back if you're only there for a short stay.[/list]
Crystal:
[list][*]This strip club has a wide selection of very pretty and very forward girls. When I first walked in I was immediately surrounded by about 12 girls all groping and kissing and trying to get my attention.
[*]Prices a bit more expensive. $100 for a girl (room included) for an hour.
[*]Rooms are kind of shitty. Just a bed and dirty sheets.
[*]Once in the rooms the friendly attitude goes way down. Some rushing, upsell, and restrictions on what I could do. Only tried one girl, so that may just be a fluke.[/list]
Hello all,
I've been using the Barco's as my meeting point for cupid-chicks.
Great view facing the Malecom and the Ocean, easy to park and find, and you can see the Chica coming. Food is fine and beer is cold, so makes the wait easier when the girl shows up DR-standard 90 min late. Also they have nicely priced large pizza, to keep cost low in case the girl shows up with primas or whatever (which has made both pleasant and embarrassing situations.). There are often tourists there, many germans, and the owner is nice. Close to Long Beach and the supermarket (if need to buy a swimsuit to the chica).
Any other meeting points you guys like?

I certainly won't recommend blackbeards to anyone. I thought the owner of blackbeards was interested in customer relations. The language in that newsletter is not very welcoming and saying housekeeping or shipsmate will rat you out is not very nice. Business must be good at blackbeards for them to be able to write so arrogantly in their newsletter. So I guess if you want a drink at 4am, you have to pay an outrageous price to a costambar taxi to take you to a bar? There is absolutely nothing in blackbeards that can't be found in many other places (places where you can have your own liquor and not be treated like a 10 year old and threatened). Bad customer service in my opinion. In a country with a multitude of pros, no reason to have be talked down to by a small hotel that allows pros to hang out on premises.

[QUOTE=Choboman;1276716]The selection of girls at any time varies considerably, anywhere from just a couple girls to ten or so[/quote]I have dropped in to Blackbeards maybe twenty times over the past six years to meet friends (not to shop for myself). I don't think I have ever seen less than six chicas available, rising to 24 plus when the shifts overlap. When did you visit? At 3 o'clock in the morning or maybe during a tropical storm?
[QUOTE=Choboman;1276716]Location is kinda remote, and in a shitty neighborhood .[/quote]This raised a smile. If you think the area round Blackbeards is shitty, you obviously haven't seen much of the rest of the DR. Try Cafemba, just a mile from Blackbeards, but even that is Beverly Hills compared to some barrios and bateys where I have picked up chicas. Downhill again are the barrios even I wouldn't dare enter. Trust me, the area round Blackbeards is comfortably in the top 1% of the country.
[QUOTE=Choboman;1276716]Once in the rooms the friendly attitude goes way down. Some rushing, upsell, and restrictions on what I could do.

I never understand guys doing girls on site at Cristal unless they are local Dominicans or tourists ducking out from their wives for a quicky. If I were paying Cristal's inflated prices for sex I would at least take them to Field of Dreams or some cheaper but half-decent hotel close by like Portofino or Lomar to enjoy what I had paid so much for. If I were doing some cheap slag in a Dominican bar for 700 pesos then I would expect dirty sheets and squalid conditions are part of the package, but not for 3500 pesos fucks.
Glad you had a good trip, and thanks for reporting back.
Nothing like a business disrespecting its customers. I think the guy has been drinking to much product. If someone has some booz in his bag so what. You have dum rules that will be ignored. Be glad the we chose to use your facilities. We have many choices. Sosua is full of chicas just as hot as BBs. When we stop visiting you stop eating. We have many options.

Only tried one girl, so that may just be a fluke.[/list][/QUOTE]Yeah, I heard about this, but in my 4 trips to Puerto Plata, I never visited this place. $100 is just too high and it's only for a fucking hour (or probably actually. 1 nut, whichever comes first)! I thought the casas in Santo Domingo were expensive, but for their 100 bucks, at least you can get 2 hours in your own hotel (versus a dingy in-house bed). They must be mad.
Choboman, were they a gigantic upgrade over the BB girls, in terms of looks? Saying all this, I always said that I should go to the place at least once, so maybe I will in June. Will I bang a chick? Not on dirty sheets, so thanks for letting me know. Read somewhere those chicks are expensive to take out the club too. More than likely, I'll check out the ass and get me a number of a chick, so that I can bang her during her off-hours. As for the groping, I'll make sure to wear a cup. Last thing I need is during all that groping and grabbing, somebody knees me or pulls too hard on the nutsac. Got to protect the boys!
Again, thanks for the report. P. S. If you remember the name of the chick with all the restrictions, please let us know. We hate multiple restrictions! No anal, that's fine. Don't want cum in your mouth, okay I get it, but when chicks are talking about putting restrictions on multiple sex positions and just prefer to lie on their back, well they need to get out the game, because there's not going to be much cash flow in their future!

[QUOTE=Sammy Sosa; 1276719]Hello all,
I've been using the Barco's as my meeting point for cupid-chicks. Close to Long Beach and the supermarket (if need to buy a swimsuit to the chica).[/QUOTE]Maybe I'm not understanding you correctly, but Barco's (owned by Hans, the German guy, and a hell of a nice guy, BTW) is on the western end of the Malecon, while Long Beach is on the eastern end. I wouldn't call it CLOSE.
[QUOTE=Tempoecorto;1276784]I am offended by the tone of this mail. Whoever this fellow Bliadun is, he has no business coming in here to chastise others. This is a forum for private individuals and not for a f. Ing business no matter how slick the business is. I hope you Bliadun, would remember that. For the FINAL RECORD![/QUOTE]Unless Bliadun behind the scenes works for Blackbeards and I doubt it, all he did was copy and paste a portion from the latest Blackbeards newsletter onto the forum and asked what you guys thought of it. The newsletter is written by El Capitan at Blackbeards, not Bliadun. Maybe some of you guys don't subscribe to it. I look forward to that newsletter every month to see pics of the latest ass at that place. Sosua is still numero uno to me, but I'll be making a trip back to BB next month.
Bliadun asked at the top of his topic "What do you guys think?" for discussion purposes only.
To answer his question, I don't have a problem with it. The rules are clearly stated and Blackbeards makes a lot of its money from its room rentals and sales in its restaurant. Anyone who has a problem with the rule should stay elsewhere. I don't give a damn about it and look forward to my next stay there. Supposedly BB hasn't raised their room rates in years, so if forcing people to buy alcoholic beverages in their restaurant helps with that, so be it.
Man, El Capitan sounded kind of pissed, didn't he? Probably hasn't been this pissed since somebody put a video up on Youtube showing the chicas and some CUSTOMERS. OH no. What will their wives think!
[QUOTE=The Windex Man;1276861]Unless Bliadun behind the scenes works for Blackbeards and I doubt it, all he did was copy and paste a portion from the latest Blackbeards newsletter onto the forum and asked what you guys thought of it.[/QUOTE]Thanks. Well, perhaps I am stupid but it was not clear to me, when I read that piece that it was a direct quote. I use "quote" and "unquote" to mark things. I thought this person is a spokesperson for BB.
In any case, I do not have anything to say about the policy. It is a private business and they can do whatever. I am not a customer nor do I read their newsletter. I just reacted to the tone of the "write up".
Tempoecorto this is nothing new it has been a rule for as long as I have been going. It just came from the newsletter.
BB's is cheap and an affordable vacation they obviously make alot of their money on booze and food which are a little more then typical DR prices but on the cheap end by American standards. I don't know it for a fact but I have seen in the past a group of guys come in and have a full bar in their room and mix drinks all night and pass them out! Of course BB's isn't going to allow this and no bar is going to allow you to make drinks and bring them into the bar area. So whats the big deal! Something like this had to have happened or a post here about bring your own alcohol made them mention it.
To those asking or thinking about Cristals, unless its late, your in pp and your out of options don't go and even then I would think of passing. Do you like 6 to 8 dollar beers. 100 bucks for on-sight or 140 for off-sight for girls that wear so much makeup they look like clowns, literally, and girls that are so fried Brad Pitt himself wouldn't get a rise out of them. Half the girls live there and they are certifiable crazy. Sad but true.

All hotels could make the same argument, they can make more money selling you liquor, rather than if you brought in your own liquor, that you bought cheaper outside the hotel (I have not been in any hotel that told me I couldn't bring in my own liquor). Blackbeards is a hotel with pros on site. There are plenty of hotels that allow you to bring in your own liquor in the Dominican Republic and there are plenty of pros in the Dominican Republic. Blackbeards has no monopoly on hotel rooms or on pros in the DR.
If a guy wants to do his first two days at blackbeards and then move onto Sosua, he has to be afraid about being blackballed from blackbeards because he bought liquor at duty free to use in Sosua. I was in hotel palacio (santo domingo) years ago for super bowl weekend, a group of older guys from chicago were there and had tables and chairs set up outside their rooms with bottles of booze they brought into the hotel.
There is a global turn-down in the Economy and some people like to save money wherever they can. Obviously the owner of blackbeards wants to squeeze every ounce of juice from the orange.
[QUOTE=Choboman; 1276716]Just back from a five-day visit to Lifestyles in PP, and had a great time. A few observations:
Black Beard's:
[list][*]If you're not booked at BB's but plan to visit for a 'short time', call ahead. The first time I stopped by they had no vacancies.
[*]The selection of girls at any time varies considerably, anywhere from just a couple girls to ten or so, and with varying looks (light, dark, tall, short, skinny, thick). All of them claim to be 20. 28, but some of them looked younger to my untrained eye. So if you don't see what you like when you first stop by, come back later and you'll likely find something that suits you.
[*]Prices there seemed very reasonable. $25 for 2 hour stay $90-$110 for full day. Girls are around $45 for a short stay and they don't haggle / upsell.
[*]My two experiences here, the girls had great attitudes. Lots of kissing / snuggling / GFE, no rush, took direction well. Fully recommend!
[*]Location is kinda remote, and in a shitty neighborhood, but taxis are pretty cheap and will wait on site to take you back if you're only there for a short stay.[/list]
Crystal:
[list][*]This strip club has a wide selection of very pretty and very forward girls. When I first walked in I was immediately surrounded by about 12 girls all groping and kissing and trying to get my attention.
[*]Prices a bit more expensive. $100 for a girl (room included) for an hour.
[*]Rooms are kind of shitty. Just a bed and dirty sheets.
[*]Once in the rooms the friendly attitude goes way down. Some rushing, upsell, and restrictions on what I could do. Only tried one girl, so that may just be a fluke.[/list][/QUOTE]Choboman,
I'm staying in Lifestyle as well, and want to make a short trip to BB. I'm a little confused though because everyone states there is some kind of taxi mafia or whatever. Did you use anyone specifically or just call?
I'the like to apologize for not using quotation marks, but this was an unaltered quote from BB newsletter.
I'm not in any way affiliated with Black Beard and if you will read this post till the end, you'll see it for yourself, but I really like this place and I stayed there a few times over the years. Most of the staff makes you feel welcome. BB is a unique, first class run (by Latin America standards) facility. This is not a cheapest place around, in terms of accommodation White Beard could be almost twice as cheaper, but choice of chicas is not good at all.
Yes, the place is not for 'hunters', but I don't mind to be 'spoon-fed' during short vacation, especially with 'menu' that good. I don't mind to pay some extra for additional security and convenience.
OK, back to the point. I'm 100% agree that no one should bring their own booze to restaurant or bar, because restaurant and bar are in business of selling booze.
But what about HOTEL which supposed to be a home away from home? Should the HOTEL tell you what to do in your room? Let's imagine a threesome, if you only allowed ONE bottle in the room and you are a 'whisky' guy, one girl likes tequila and another one prefers something else, what are you supposed to do? Get dressed in the middle of party, which might kill the mood, and come down to the bar? I had personal experience, years ago, when me and chica drank whole bottle of rum from mini bar soon after midnight and wanted something more, we've been out of luck since bar is closed between midnight and 8 a. M!
Quote: 'Housekeeping or the Shipmates reports it to us. ' Is this Orwell's 1984? 'Big Brother' or should I say 'Big Sister' is watching over you! May be it's just me, but somehow it doesn't make me feel welcome.
What's next? Exit fee when you don't eat at their restaurant or buying condoms only at the hotel?
[QUOTE=Bliadun; 1276627]What do you think?
Latest BB newsletter-
No Outside Booze Rule. Again!
Here we go again. This ugly topic has to be discussed because Pirates are not only bringing their own booze in they are advising other Pirates on the internet what they should bring and where they should buy it.
For The FINAL Record.
El Capitan allows ONE bottle of a SPECIAL libation for room use after hours IF we don't offer it here.
So, if you think you are slick. And can set up your own bar in your room and mix drinks to be consumed at our bar and restaurant. Good luck. Because.
You sneak it in.
Housekeeping or the Shipmates reports it to us.
You try to make a future reservation.
We ask you to take your business elsewhere.

They don't give you a hard time about it or anything. Cost is $30 roundtrip (driver will hang out at bar until you're ready to leave again.) There was a guy who kept trying to get me to request him, but I just ignored it. All the drivers know where the place is, and it's just a 5 minute drive.
[QUOTE=Bliadun;1276933]But what about HOTEL which supposed to be a home away from home?

If you have decided to make heavy drinking a part of your life, it might be a good idea to rent an apartment where you can have a variety of alcoholic drinks in your bedroom and invite as many men and women as you like to share the merriment.
Blackbeards is a resort where revenue depends both on room rental and on restaurant and bar sales, so it is most suitable for patrons from whom that model works. You can go to an all inclusive where the drinks are free, and I imagine they will have no problem whatsoever even if you have a truckload of your own booze delivered.

Heavy drinking? WTF.

A hotel telling me I cannot enter my hotel room with my own liquor is B_llsh_it.
Every other hotel I know of, somehow stays in business, with no restrictions on a guest's ability to bring in liquor. Cruise ships and Blackbeards seem to be the only places where restrictions are put on alcohol you can bring into your room (the cruise ships don't threaten their guests about the policy).

When I first went there they didn't allow ANY outside booze and I understood why and didn't break the rule. Now at least they allow one bottle which works for me because yes, sometimes after the bar is closed I want to continue drinking, one bottle is enough for me, the market is only a short walk so that bottle can be replaced daily if necessary. The girls will drink whatever is given to them no need to worry about that.

The whole pirates and shipmates is a bit childish, but I guess for guys who are afraid to rent a car or venture to different parts of the DR, then a childish place with rules and regulations is fun for them (maybe it reminds them of being back home with mommie and daddy and they would sneak to drink some of the family's liquor at night).
ISG member highclassdrifter recently said the north coast is better for mongering. What is on the northcoast? Blackbeards which nickles and dimes clients (and I have read reports of guests stating that their bill was padded). Cristals is on the north coast, which is over $100US, with at least one bad review. Whitebeards, field of dreams or whatever it is called has kiddie porn painted on the walls. Puerto Plata on the north coast is a good monger destination? Sosua is on the north coast. Sosua can be hit or miss. One advantage Sosua has over Blackbeards is that some Sosua chicas can be choosy in who they sleep with. Seems at Blackbeards, the chicas have to sleep with whomever chooses them, no matter how loathsome or despicable the guy might be.

I have stayed in a room with three people at all inclusive hotels in the DR. For non-inclusive type hotels in the DR, the room rate is usually the same whether it is one or three people in a room.
I guess if you are in some religious Muslim country there might be rules and regulations regarding liquor in some hotels (but again I have not read of any other hotel in the world that prohibits guests from entering with and consuming their own liquor in their hotel room). If blackbeards has such a loyal, rich, clientele (that don't mind getting hosed) then why have a rule that is unpopular with some guests (according to some guys on this site, blackbeards will always have loyal clients, no matter what the rules are).
Costambar taxis which service blackbeards are supposedly rude and overpriced. If a person stays at blackbeards he has to buy all his liquor from blackbeards or be forever banned from the place. You guys who like that kind of BS, good luck to you.

I have stayed all over the DR in the past 8 years and have 35+ trips under my belt. 20+ of my visits have been at BB's. When I first started going to BB's the NO outside booze was a policy that was not enforced very often. That changed quickly when guests were showing up with cases of beer and hard liquor and openly partying in and out of their room. They drew a lot of negative attention to themselves and created a less than wonderful experience for many of us. I have seen times when 2 guests would check into one of the suites and all of a sudden there were 4-6 guests staying in the room. There were groups of people that were so drunk, loud and abusive to everyone it was very uncomfortable. Every Hotel has rules. If you do not like the rules at the Hotel don't stay there. There are always numerous options in the DR.
Say what you want about BB's but they must be doing something right as their rates have stayed the same for at least 6 years and their over all quality of service, facilities and food has increased on each of my visits. There is always some part of the Hotel that is being updated. While BB's may not be for everyone (just like every other Hotel) they do offer a consistent product at reasonable and affordable rates. Just my opinion. I will be returning in July for 7 days and look forward to catching up with old friends.
[QUOTE=Manizales911;1277279]BB's charges $55. For a spotless room and 90 pesos for a beer, not exactly what I would call gouging it's clients or a pig of a business. The fact that they are constantly booked solid and 90% of it is repeat customers speaks for itself. Everybody on this board knows that you have a hair across your ass in respects to the north coast so no need to keep shoving it down our throats.[/QUOTE]Clean rooms for $55US (I can give you a list of chica friendly hotels in the DR priced at $55US or less, that allow clients to bring in their own liquor). I have recommended Blackbeard to people in the past. I did not know about the no outside alcohol policy, till yesterday. The tone of language used in the Blackbeards newsletter is obnoxious and their no outside alcohol policy is BS. Not allowing clients to consume alcohol bought off premises and making clients buy only alcohol from Blackbeards is a form of gouging.
Since you are an expert on blackbeards and the northcoast, if a guy staying at blackbeards wants alcohol at 4am, are the bars at blackbeards open 24/7? If the bars at blackbeards are not open 24/7, would a guy have to pay an expensive costambar taxi to take him to another location for a drink? (all because blackbeard's owner says no outside alcohol in their rooms).
Please, I am all ears, maybe I am missing something here. There have been nights in the DR where I drank alcohol till 7am and then went to sleep. I have been out with other ISG members where I paid the bar tab of $300US for a night's drinking. I don't mind spending money on alcohol at a venue. There is no way, I will spend time at a hotel that tells me I can't drink alcohol that I bought at duty free (I don't care where the hotel is located, if a santo domingo hotel had the same policy as blackbeards I would be against that santo domingo hotel).
If I am naked with some woman in bed and I want to have a drink in my room at 4am, I should be able to crack open a bottle of liquor I bought at the airport.

Maybe you and the owner of Blackbeards can open a branch in Cartagena, Colombia, where you can get not so great looking high mileage pros to ask for $800US dollars for TLN (and then not call it gouging).
90 pesos for a small bottle of beer is no great bargain. In some local places in the DR I can get a Large bottle of presidente cerveza for 75-100 pesos. I hope the owner of blackbeards gives you a kick-back or some freebies for defending their non-consumer friendly policy (no outside liquor).
You state Blackbeards has a loyal clientele, does that mean all their policies are correct and good? And again I will ask, if blackbeards has such a loyal and faithful clientele why does blackbeards have to nickle and dime over alcohol? Maybe you can tell me the name of another hotel on the planet earth that prohibits clients from drinking alcohol in their rooms, that was bought outside that particular hotel. The owner of blackbeards is an American guy, from what I have read. I wonder if your opinion regarding their hotel policies would be different it blackbeards was owned by a Dominican.

I see both points. The policy is in place by the hotel for reasons but I don't think they are looking in bags we bring in or hunting for booze. I think the statement they make at the end of the news letter was somewhat not called for telling guess to take their business elsewhere but WTF. I have made 2-3 day stays at BB's during most of my DR trips the past 4 years as my last stop to relax before returning back to the states. No hotel or resort is perfect. BB's does a good job and no they have not raise the rates in years but why would they? I pay about the same at BB's that I pay at NG which also sell booze and don't care what you bring and we all know NG has better rooms than BB's but like I said I go to BB's to relax no other hotel like it no need for hunting, cold beer, good food, variety of chicas, Nice Quite Nights. To that end, I too plan to be back at BB's the end of June and will have 2 bottles of fine import wine for my OWN personal use not sold at the bar and I'm sure they will not say anything.
What is the deal with Jaosousa's constant negative comments? Am I missing something? Is he actually the mayor of Santo Domingo.
On one hand, this guy singlehandedly made sure that I had the best time possible when I visited Santo Domingo. The information that he passed in that forum was invaluable and I was very thankful with the information he provided. I even recommended to friends that when visiting the forum, check out the stuff this guy says.
On the other hand, Jaosousa seems to go out of his way to not only continually insult the North Coast (Puerto Plata / Sosua) , but also insult the people who enjoy the place. Guess what Jao, everyone does not have the same tastes. That's life and I don't get why you go out of your way to make sure people understand that you are always right and anyone who thinks the North Coast is better (FOR THEM) is a moron. Your constant jabs at people who like the area more is ridiculous and I would have expected your response to be "to each their own", versus comments like "maybe guys who enjoy BB are guys who like to be reminded of being at home with mommie and daddy and sneak some of the family's liquor." WTF?
You then imply the place is childish because it has rules and regulations that you don't agree with. Guess what, smart guy? Most hotels have rules and regulations, some we agree with; others we don't. Some charge a fee to bring a chick in; some don't let you bring a chica in at all for instance. You look at the rules and decide if you agree or disagree. It doesn't mean that a person is an idiot or childish or anything else if they decide to stay at Blackbeards and I've been to what you called a "shit-hole" Boca-Chica, you enjoy yourself there. I had a much better time at BB's.
Now to other points:
When it was mentioned that BB offered $55 clean rooms (which is not considered gouging) , your response was to mention that you can provide a list of hotels that are less than $55. SO WHAT? The question concerned gouging and your list of lower priced hotel room still does not take away from the fact that a $55 a night room is not gouging.
When it was mentioned that BB had beers at 90 pesos, your response was that you knew places where beer was sold at a less price. Again, SO WHAT? The question concerned gouging and 90 pesos for a beer is not gouging. You seem to think that all the businesses and bars in DR agreed on a standard price on alcohol and BB doubled / tripled the price and went above it. I paid more than 90 pesos when I visited a few of those casas in Santo Domingo. Did I think gouging? No, it's common practice that a restaurant or a bar will charge more then say a grocery store and they each have their own prices. You pay it or you don't.
Let me guess, if someone also likes the fact that there is a non-negotiable good price of only $45 for 2 hours with a chica at BB, your response will be that you know plenty of places where you can get pussy for 5 bucks and a can of beer. Again, just because it can be had cheaper, this does not mean that BB is price gouging. A price was set and it's a good price.
Fair / Good pricing is considered okay in my book when on a vacation. Before I did DR, I did Cancun Mexico. Not okay with those prices at all and will never go back.
You try to put down BB again by saying that at least in Sosua, they have more of a choice of who to sleep with versus BB where they pretty much have to sleep with anyone,"no matter how despicable." Are you just reaching for anything at this point? You know as well as anyone that when it comes to casa style ho houses, chicas for the most part will sleep with anyone coming through the door whereas freelancers can be more choosy because they don't have management over them. For the most part (not saying 100%) , this is the same no matter where you go. Those casas in SD were the same. The freelancers on the street can walk right by you and not say a word if they want to, but whenever I visited those casas, those chicks ran up on dudes whether they were Brad Pitts or Patrick Ewings or even Chad Bonos. Guaranteed anyone picked would have slept with him.
Someone says that there are plenty of girls there that anyone would like. Your response is another put down, trying to say that you have yet to see any 9 or 10 there, then the extra jab by saying that you don't even recall a 8. Totally disagree. I get the newsletter evry month and me and a few buddies (who also get it) talk about the fine chocolate honies over there and who we are going to get with on our next visits. Hey, it's all a matter of taste. One man's 7 is another man's 10 and vice versa, but you can't tell a man's taste is incorrect just because you have different tastes. Some guys think Haitian women are highly attractive and I haven't slept with one because my taste is different. Do I put that man down or say that he is wrong to call them beautiful? Hell no, I'm just glad he's having a good time.
Overall, I just wish his North Coast versus South coast DR bullshit will stop. Reminds me of the stupidity of the east coast versus West coast rap music wars in the US in the 1990s. Your point has been realized a long time Jao, you despise this area and as been mentioned by another member, no need to keep ramming it down this forum's throats. If the worst thing about BB's is that you maybe cannot have a drink at 4am after already drinking all night, then (1) stay your ass somewhere else. Won't miss you. More chica options for me or (2) seek your nearest AA (alcoholic anonymous) chapter because ya might need some help. While you're crying about not having a drink at 4am, I'll be working on my second nut with a fine ass chica in my bedroom.
Just my opinion on this. I'll be in my favorite area of DR end of June for 5 days at BB, then on to the main event Sosua for another 8. Highly looking forward to it!
As always Jao, thanks for the valuable info that you bring to the forum (outside of bashing Puerto Plata). On this subject we absolutely agree to disagree.
[QUOTE=Bliadun;1276933]I'the like to apologize for not using quotation marks, but this was an unaltered quote from BB newsletter.[/QUOTE]I need to apologize to you. I got carried away. Sorry!
As far as "enough is enough", I disagree. If there is interest in the topic, then keep writing about it. Since it's not the same members posting the same info over and over, it seems to be a topic worth discussing.
As far as BB's rules,"there's a method to their madness". Look at it from BB's point of view. Why would a establishment who is trying to make money have a rule that is different from the rest of their business profile, if it wasn't for a good reason? Why would BB make a outspoken statement on their newsletter, which is made to solicit customers, if it wasn't important to them?
They don't seem to be obnoxious about the enforcement of the rule. Don't show up at registration with a case of Budwiser. Don't put a sign on your door saying "Free booze here". Don't pile empty bottles of vodka outside your room. Put your bottles in your bag when you are not entertaining. Don't flaunt your room booze at the bar.
Play the game, and you should have nothing to whine about.

At least the Sosua freelancer has freedom to choose, she can walk away from me if she wanted.
Could you refer me to your trip reports and the photos that you have posted on this site (have you actually ever posted a trip report or a photo on this site?). If you want to take the side of a hotel owner who has a unique policy that helps maximize his profits, rather than take the side of the average monger at that hotel who loses money because of that policy, that is your choice.
Your post is littered with inaccuracies and misconceptions which one day, I might respond to one by one.
Drinking is what some people do when they are on vacation. A hotel that caters to people on vacation should understand that. If it troubles you that some people drink alcohol while on vacation and your suggestion that alcoholics anonymous might be required, I would respond that your negative viewpoint of people who might like to drink alcohol at some particular time of the day, would fit right in with how some Taliban would view the subject. And at 4am in Santo Domingo after having been with fine ass chicas, sometimes all I want is a drink (I have posted trip reports).
Windex Man, I like that name, it reminds me to bring windex wipes for the rental car in the DR.
Regarding negative posts, I could point out numerous negative posts, where afterwards you wrote nothing.
[QUOTE=The Windex Man;1277455]As always Jao, thanks for the valuable info that you bring to the forum.[/QUOTE]Thank you. And thank you for your 37 posts on the ISG.
As I said before, I only spent 15 minutes at blackbeards. Seems maybe you have spent more time there, so maybe you can answer some questions about the place (within the last two weeks I recommended blackbeards to ISG member Score77 as a place to visit with his friends and I have recommended it other times. I made those recommendations before I knew about blackbeards Unique alcohol policy. Why would I recommend a place I allegedly despise to a friend? I am sure you have been busy with all your fine ass chicas, working on your second nut, so no time to read all of my posts).
ISG member Bliadun recently posted an excerpt from the Blackbeards newsletter written by the owner of Blackbeards;
[QUOTE=Bliadun;1276627]For the 98% of our Pirates who don't break the rules. Please ignore this reminder. And we apologize for the boneheads. That just don't freakin' get it![/QUOTE]Is it accepted, normal operating procedure at Blackbeards that the captain (the owner) calls some of his clients Boneheads who don't freakin get it? (BTW I believe you alleged that I called or stated that guys who go to the north coast as morons, could you please refer me to those posts, so that I can correct them, I don't recall calling anyone on this site a moron).
One last question, because I know you must be a busy guy with so many fine ass chicas. I enjoy the Pirates of the Caribbean movies made by Disney. I have not been to Disneyland in over 20 years (maybe they have a Pirates theme ride or part of the park). My question is, could I kill two birds with one stone and save money by visiting the Blackbeards hotel in puerto plata and still get that pirate atmosphere I might find at a Disney park (paper pirate hats, fake eye patches, plastic pirate swords)? The owner of blackbeards in puerto plata calls himself captain and calls clients of his hotel pirates and the prostitutes who work there as shipmates.
The original Blackbeard pirate was a ruthless Englishman named Edward Teach.
Thanks for your time and your immense wisdom.

I don't care where anyone mongers. This is the International Sex Guide, not the international prostitution guide.
If you have more fun on the north coast, then stay on the north coast. I did 10 trips or more to sosua and puerto plata. Seems you may have done one 3 day trip to santo domingo and based on those 3 days you make the assertion that the north coast is better than santo domingo (Santiago is not considered the north coast). If I thought mongering was better on the north coast, I would travel there. I have no plans to re-visit Sosua or Puerto Plata (I saw nothing spectacular in Gasper Hernandez) and doubt I will ever spend much time in those places in the future. I will return to samana, which is on the north coast of the DR.
I appreciate your report and your opinions. I am always open to changing my mind about mongering destinations. If you could provide more detailed info on the north coast regarding p4p, semi-pros, non-pros, venues, bars, discos, hotels, prices and other places of interest with photos, it would be useful.
Thank you.[/QUOTE]You can name call me all you want. I find it strange that a guy's first visible post is a negative post about SantO Domingo (notice the spelling, I know of no city called santa domingo in the DR) and a shill for the north coast (Gasper Hernandez is the correct spelling).
Since I politely asked you for further information about mongering on the places you mentioned, you have written several other posts, without responding to my post with actual, useful information. I guess I will never get a response from you as to why you wrote what you wrote regarding the north coast. I get comped in the DR? You and Frannie can go have drinks together with that BS. Santo Domingo has over 10 p4p venues, freelancers, SWs, semi-pros and non-pros. If you want to state the north coast is better, without backing up your statement then you are writing BS or possibly working for some north coast establishment trying to drum up business.
Again I thank you for your contributions to board.

BB's has two bars and expects to make a profit from them. I understand this and have no problem buying their reasonable priced beers during the day and drinks at night. I like to party with the chicas and run up a large bar bill by the end of the night. BBs also doesn't want the New Garden party scenes where crews sit around the pool with a couple liters of booze and mixers and then have the nerve to ask the bar for ice. Limiting outside booze also allows them to control a person's consumption keeping obnoxious sloppy mean drunks to a minimum. All this I understand and have no problem with.
I have a plane ticket for June 12th and was thinking about returning to BBs for a week. My problem is once the bars close at midnight / 1am I like to have a couple of drinks with my date in the privacy of my room. Last trip I had a bottle of duty free scotch and had no problems. If BB is truly customer orientated they will continue to separately enforce the rule. If not what are my options? Buy a Ύ liter bottle of Johnny Walker from the bar? Don't think so. I would rather spend the $40+ on a duty free liter of a SPECIAL single malt scotch. Something they don't serve at the bar. Of course there is always option of going back to Sosua. We'll see. Who knows maybe I'm one of the 'boneheads' they don't want.
I think it's kinda blown out of proportions. While the tone of this newsletter is unwise and confrontational, I believe the issue that BB owners have is that some guys mix their drinks in the room and bring them down to the bar or invite other mongers for some "indoor" parties, thus cutting in on their profits. I seriously doubt that anyone who drinks quietly in his room would actually have any problem or we sure as hell would've heard about it by now.
Ban on outside alcohol is not unheard of in travel industry. Think about cruise ships. And they do get to sell you alcohol at outrageous prices. BB's prices are reasonable.
I would never EVER bring alcohol down to the bar. When I eat or drink at a bar, I buy drinks at a bar. This is beyond cheap and just a bad form any which way you look at it. BB are totally within their rights to be pissed. However, having said that, if I was a guest at BB, I would absolutely not abide by this ridiculous "one bottle" policy. I enjoy drinking inside whether alone or with chicas. So if they told me to take my business elsewhere next time, I would. It's simple as that.
My buddy and I made a short trip to BB yesterday. My impressions are mixed. Here are my first time observations if anyone is interested.
1. It's a small hotel in the middle of nowhere. Chica line up was fantastic. Chicas were plentiful, and there was huge variety.
2. We watched the bikini contest, then ate in their restaurant and it was reasonable. The food was not bad, either.
3. They didn't have a room at first. I found a chica I wanted to take for a BJ to a Jacuzzi. Refused. Registered guests only.
4. Eventually a guest checked out and the manager found me a room, but he would charge us $50 for two hours. So I guess ST for the room for one person has gone up from reported $20 to $25. Since we were horny as hell we paid the fee, but we did feel we were taken advantage of. Yes it was a double, but $50 for a 2 hr room is still excessive.
5. Playing with a chica in the Jacuzzi before the main course was a lot of fun, though.
6. They did charge me 35 pesos afterwards for a bottle of water I consumed in the room. In all honesty if it was me, in the very least I would've waived the water for the guests who bought two contest tickets, ate at my restaurant and paid $50 for the room which otherwise would've remained empty. But again, it wasn't me and they certainly have the right to charge for the things they sell.
7. Regardless of my mixed emotions, I had the impression they're running a tight ship, and maybe being "all about business" is not such a bad thing. Perhaps, it is the only way to do business in DR.
8. I would not stat there for longer than 3-4 days. Chicas or no chicas I would get bored to death. But for 3-4 days stay I certainly wouldn't hesitate.

While it is a reasonably nice neighborhood to live in, for a tourist it would totally be in the middle of nowhere, because there is nothing to see and do. Didn't mean to offend folks living in Costambar. Sorry about that.
[quote=xpartan;1278039]i apologize i misspoke. of course it is not in the middle of a dead zone. what i meant was that besides chicas and perhaps the beach which i didn't see on my way in, there doesn't seem to be anything of the interest to a tourist. for example, i live in bensonhurst, in brooklyn. while it is a reasonably nice neighborhood to live in, for a tourist it would totally be in the middle of nowhere, because there is nothing to see and do. didn't mean to offend folks living in costambar. sorry about that.[/quote]i knew what you meant. i have not been to costambar for a few years, but the very first time i visited the dr, i almost didn't go to bb, because i had read that it was in the middle of nowhere, and i was concerned that if i didn't like it i would be stuck in the middle of nowhere, like in rural florida, with nothing to see or do.
from what i remember costambar has a few restaurants, a fairly decent beach, although the swimming is not great due to shallow, rough, and rocky, one or two little bars, a small supermarket and a pharmacy, all of which might be of interest to tourists (especially those in need of erectile dysfunction drugs). it is quite a pretty place and you can walk around the lanes around blackbeards, where there is quite a variety of tropical vegetation including some beautiful trees like jacaranda, bougainvillea, hibiscus, sea grape, and a few small plots where people are growing bananas, guineo, plantains, etc, not to mention chickens. as a tourist i found these things quite interesting the first time i visited the dr as i had not been there before.
it is also not far from the teleferico, which is a major tourist attraction, and is just 10 minutes by taxi or moto from puerto plata (founded 1501) with the interesting historic fort overlooking the harbor and the malecon which is also a very attractive area.

[QUOTE=Jaosousa; 1271824]If you want to relax and get an introduction to DR, go to Blackbeard Resort the first two days. When you meet up with your friends in Sosua, you can party all night with them in Sosua. Blackbeard's is close to the city of Puerto Plata, which has bars and at least one p4p venue (cristals). Not too far from Blackbeard Resort is Ocean World (which has a marina, a marine park, casino and there used to be a nice bar on the top floor of the building where the casino is, called the lighthouse bar). You can easily venture out of Blackbeard Resort at night, the DR is relatively safe (crime occurs, but violent crime against tourists usually not). You can even learn some Spanish at blackbeard's, that could help you in Sosua. ISG member Charles Pooter has posted info about local bars in Puerto Plata.
As Manizales has stated, you can get a blackbeard's chica to show you around or you could try to negotiate with a taxi driver (I have read the Costambar taxis charge a high fee, info on how to minimize using costambar taxis has been posted before).[/QUOTE]

Be careful out there guys.[/QUOTE]It can happen anywhere. If it is confirmed you need an excuse. I have read online that it is possible to catch some diseases from a bare back BJ. Explaining to a significant other that a chica kissed your dick is less harsh, than trying to explain you had unprotected vaginal sex with another woman.
Woman can have chlamydia and not know it. Your excuse or your "story" will depend on what the lab results show. Some women get urinary tract infections that have nothing to do with sex and can occur in women who are not sexually active.
Different antibiotics are easily obtained without a prescription at pharmacies in the DR.
[QUOTE=Twice Divorced;1276857]Maybe I'm not understanding you correctly, but Barco's (owned by Hans, the German guy, and a hell of a nice guy, BTW) is on the western end of the Malecon, while Long Beach is on the eastern end. I wouldn't call it CLOSE.[/QUOTE]Yeah, nice guy. Business does not seem too great though, mostly a few foreigners for lunch. Wonder why, as the location is great and the food is fine.
Last day I invited a young chica there. She declined having a pizza at Barco's and made me drive her to La Sirena for a Domino's Pizza. It was so bad I could not even finish the first slice, and it ended up costing more than what I would have paid at Barco's. The power of branding I guess. What a pity.
[QUOTE=Sammy Sosa;1276719]Great view facing the Malecom and the Ocean, easy to park and find, and you can see the Chica coming. Food is fine and beer is cold, so makes the wait easier when the girl shows up DR-standard 90 min late. Also they have nicely priced large pizza, to keep cost low in case the girl shows up with primas or whatever (which has made both pleasant and embarrassing situations.). There are often tourists there, many germans, and the owner is nice. Close to Long Beach and the supermarket (if need to buy a swimsuit to the chica).[/QUOTE]Another reason: looks like most ladies sitting along the Malecom on the other side of the restaurant are hookers.
Could be useful in case your date does not show up. Which in my case takes the shape of a phone call 90 min after rendez-vous time and some excuse like:
"hi papi, I was on my way to meet you but a bus overran me. I managed to crawl to the closest motoconcho, but we got robbed by 2 Chinese guys with kalashnikov, who even emptied the tank. I tried to walk to the restaurent but fell in an open manhole, broke my leg and had to wait for 2 hours for an ambulance to show up. I am at the hospital, please send a Western Union"
[QUOTE=Jaosousa;1279104]Explaining to a significant other that a chica kissed your dick is less harsh, than trying to explain you had unprotected vaginal sex with another woman.[/QUOTE]Well now, that entirely depends on the significant other. Hmm. I don't know too many women who would just flinch an eye if their husband got a BJ (whether protected or bareback) from any other woman. There would be hell to pay either way. I don't think in that woman's mind there is any difference between a BJ and intercourse. Whether it is vaginal or anal.
I can just imagine the conversation:
Honey, got a minute. Hmm this is hard to say but you might have contracted a VD from me.
(fill in the rest with your imagination)
Personally I think that if a married guy needs to go to DR and get some strange (or anywhere else for that matter) it is time to bite the bullet and get a divorce.
I am not judging by the way. Just an opinion. Just think that the divorce is cheaper and healthier in the long-run than the alternative.
[QUOTE=Sammy Sosa;1279123]She declined having a pizza at Barco's and made me drive her to La Sirena for a Domino's Pizza.[/QUOTE]I am guessing that had less to do with the brand of pizza than with her wanting to entice you into La Sirena for a shopping spree.

Drunkenness at a bachelor party where the other guys "forced" a guy to at least let a pro kiss his penis for less than one minute (a dare or the other guys held one guy down, etc) , might be a plausible excuse depending on the significant other. Being naked in bed with another woman and having unprotected sex with her, in my eyes, seems it would be taken slightly worse by a significant other.
Trip report from 9-16 May.
Agenda: 2 nights in Sosua, stop by Cabarete Beach to find a place called,"Red" supposedly next to O2, then pass by "Field of Dreams" on the way to BlackBeards for a 5 night stay.
Exchange rate based on Yenny's market in Costambar: 38. 95 pesos Road to the USD. 1000 pesos=$25. 67.
Sosua sucked as usual. Passions is the best place for decent box. One may hit it for $2, 500 pesos on site for an hour or so. Also, popular American owner, Lou, of the New York Shark Bar is back in town for the time being. Pace slow, the strip had plenty of box but they were hungry and greedy. Watch your wallet and agree up front on price. Hotel El Ranco still our place but their kitchen and dining area temp out of action as they are entirely renovating it. Beach right down the dead end street still the place to go for a swim. Wingman and I had it totally to ourselves. Totally!
Next day went to find this "Red" place outside Cabarette next to O2. Place was closed. Taxistas said it used to be a gay bar? Previous reports here seem to be inaccurate about Red. Went back to town for a drink at Jose O'Sheas on the beach. Pricy but great place. On the way out visited the caves 5 minutes from the center of Cabarette. Takes an hour, do it once. Went back to Sosua for night #2 and banged out some poor mother hanging out at Lou's place, not great but didn't care. Hit the beach right after a torrential thunder storm. Water was awesome and calm afterwards, beach deserted. Really great!
Next day stopped by "Field of Dreams" to get the latest saga on the way to BB's. Previous FOD manager stupidly changed the name to,"White Beards." Duh! New owners are 2 Canadian guys who have kept the FOD name. They started operation about 1 week ago. One partner boasts extensive local business background in the host nation. He'll need it. He reports they have a 5 year lease-to-buy option with plans to compete with BB's. Good luck! Our advice and suggestions not seriously taken. We suggest a lower scale operation where guys can still stop by for a short time bang if they aren't staying the whole night. It will take them years to compare with the extensive business model and operating systems and infrastructure that BB's has developed over 8 years of trial and error. And REALLY hard work. We wish the new FOD luck and we will continue to stop by FOD on our visits. Few chicas were there on our visit and those few were just the local pigs. Not that there's anything wrong with that! We passed.
BB's was great as usual, everything working except the jacuzzi heater at times but not needed. Not too busy there but certainly not dead either. Just right for us in fact. Night shift chicas mostly smoking hot. Day shift Chicas OK just not as attractive on this trip but perfectly OK. Did the usual stuff. Hit the beach, walked around, relaxed. Weather pretty good not too much rain. Slammed out 2 per day pretty much as usual. Food continued to rock but we ate a couple of meals on the beach for a change. Try the tiki bar like place at the end of the beach called,"Catamaran." Owned by a German / Dominican couple. Look for the sign, can't miss it. Good place to hang, leave your stuff with the owner, go for a swim, relax. We hung out with Tim, day manager of BB's, there on his day off and REALLY enjoyed catching up and learning more about BB's and the area in general. For those of you that get BB's bi-monthly newsletter (recommended) , you will have learned that owner "John" got banged up a bit in a car accident when his airport limo service got side swiped on the way in to his home's airport. He was on his way back to the DR. We missed the cranky guy but he's expected to make a full recovery.
Kill count this trip around 12 but who's counting? Revisited 2 targets at BB's. Pricing at BB's for ST is $1, 600 pesos and all night is $3, 000. Works out to $41. 08/$77. 02 USD. You can pig out for dinner with a 4 course meal and a drink at BB's for less than $25. Breakfast maybe $10. 10% tip included on all bar / rest tabs. Convenient. Leave the maid $3 bucks per night tip before you leave. I forgot to do that and hate myslef. Will send email to Tim to get her that tip. Rooms uber clean.
All pics attached were immediate post coital with permission of the chicas. No names or faces per agreement. Can't wait till our next trip. Enjoy!

i'm writing this in the restaurant at blackbeard's i've been here three days after a difficult trip from los angeles. i regret that my return ticket is on united airlines, as i will never again fly with them. i'm not sure what their business model is, but competence doesn't rank high in it.
bbs is cool. lots of choices even in mid-week. more than this old body can handle. the first day was jenny / jennifer who was very sweet and willing for anything i wanted. unfortunately i was too tired from my trip to take full advantage. a return about is under consideration. but she scraped me slightly with her teeth.
the next day, i did a happy hour duo with hilda and daniela which was great (especially hilda, whom i recommend) but they tore me up a little and i had to sit out yesterday. probably a good idea, anyway. enforced time to recharge the batteries. it's noon now on day 3, and i'm ready again. make that ready. nothing worse than seeing a parade of available lovelies and not being able to do a damn thing about it.
in fact, i'd grab one of them right now, except i'm changing rooms today and right now i don't have one. i checked out of the previous one and am waiting for the new one to be ready. i don't mind moving, and the new room is nicer and the old one was adjacent to the disco. last night it ran until midnight. tonight it will close at 1 a. m. i recommend avoiding room d-2 unless you like to party late.
bbs reminds me a bit of the mansion in medellin. quiet neighborhood (too quiet) , and vetted girls who start showing up at 11 a. m. last night, they were all dressed in yellow. i'll be here through saturday and then will move to sosua and the new garden. that will be about right. time for a change. on saturday, i've agreed to be one of the judges in the bikini contest. never done that. should be fun.
no pics, sorry. i promised.
At least three years ago, while on vacation at Playa Doroda in Puerto Plata, I ventured across the street, based on the recommendation of a taxi driver, to check out an adult resort called the Field of Dreams. The place was pretty ordinary, the rooms were nothing special and there were only a few girls. Two weeks ago, while vacationing back in Playa Dorada, I dropped in again to check out what the resort looked away. To say that I was blown away is an understatement. The hotel has been completely redone and is now under new management. The rooms are gorgeous, the bathrooms in the suites look like they were taken right out of a designer magazine and the girls were hot to say the least. Apparently the last owner dropped hundreds of thousands of dollars into the place only to go bankrupt and have the new management team swoop in and grab the hotel for a song. They are professional hotel operators who have hired a world class chef, brought back the maintenance team that re-did the hotel and have hired the old events and girl coordinator from Blackbeards. I spent the afternoon there and was impressed by the whole atmosphere. There is nothing in Puerto Plata that looks anything like the Field of Dreams and their new web site shows everything in full detail. The site address is: [url]www.fieldofdreamsadultresort.com[/url]

I mean 399. 00 USD a night is a bit steep for DR anyway you look at it. Even an inexperienced monger with Tourettes Syndrome like me can do better in Sosua than 400 a night LOL.

I just confirmed that it is in fact Jose Fernandez formerly of BB's that has been for some sort of management role, not sure to what extent, we'll see how it goes.
I don't want to start a new debate on these all inclusive retreats such as DR Nights or O2 but to say they are scams is a bit over the top. If it were a scam it would be misrepresentative of what was offered. I can only speak of the aforementioned two businesses and tell you that neither one of them are a scam, overpriced, yes. I wouldn't get caught dead utilizing either of their services again but I have in the past and enjoyed them both tremendously. The reason I wouldn't go there again is cost and cost only. The overall quality of the girls were head and shoulders above anything the average guy will find in Sosua or at BB's and the quality of services is better. I went there back quite some time ago before I knew the lay of the land in the DR and didn't know any spanish. The guy from DR nights used to swing by FOD with a couple of his girls in tow on a regular basis and let me tell you he had some of the best of the best on that island without a doubt. There is also the privacy issue (not for me though). What I am saying is, if you have boatloads of money and are married or are in a high profile business and only have limited time and want top notch girls and want to be catered to on a much higher level than a trip through Sosua then there is nothing wrong with it.

I respect your opinion on the highly prices AI's. Having been granted a complete tour of O2 by its owner 2 years ago I would say his operation is the highest I would pay. You can get it done there for maybe $800 per night and the broads were smoking hot. I wrote a report on it in the separate O2 thread here. Scroll back you'll find it. His operation is superb and he actually owns the property unlike some of the other venues that operated out of rented billets. The other places are just WAY too expensive but there's always those guys with money to burn. One of the guests we met at BB's did the Vikings thing a while back and he had uneven results with the stuck up slavic chicks they were importing. We calculated that it would have been cheaper for him to fly round trip to Prague, CR and just stay at a guest friendly place and slay as many ex-warsaw pact chicks as he could handle for less than what he paid Vikings. Besides, what's the point of banging european women in the DR? We go there to slam out DR chicas don't we? Just saying. Again, thanks for making the members aware about Jose.
I am with you the only reason that you pay Oxygen prices is those types of clubs offer privacy for people that can't gallop around Sousa or BB's. For FOD here lies the problem, if you let the girls just "hang out" they will not be there in the evening and some days, especially if the place isn't packed and they feel like they can't make money. Also in my experience when the girls can just "hang out" the quality isn't good not just at FOD but anywhere. So now an FOD guest is stuck in the middle of no-monger-land.
Also a poster below stated 399 a night I didnt see that on their website but with their history I would think long and hard before doing anything like that if it is true.

I just showed up, rented a room for a couple of hours (for 800 pesos) and then picked out one of the chicas that was hanging at the bar. They have staffed the place with a bunch of girls who can just sit there if they want to (like at Blackbeard's) and most of them are really hot looking girls. Evidently, as it is slower in the summer, the girls are more than happy to be able to hang at a place that has a regular flow of traffic and really nice rooms to rent for their clients. The taxi drivers all over the North Coast are promoting the place (two drivers told me about it) so all the chicas want is a place that can drive business their way. I had no issues with the girls, the prices or the quality of the resort. But I didn't use any of their all inclusive plans. For a short term afternoon of a gorgeous room and a hot chica, it was exactly what I was looking for.

I am kicking the idea of going to DR and checking out Sosua and Puerto Plata or landing in Santo domingo / boca chica area. I speak fluent spanish and have been on 30 or so trips to central and south america. Mainly Bogota and all over Costa rica and Panama.
Once I was in Cuba and it was really hard to diferentiate the pros from the non pros. Is it this way in DR? I really like to wine and dine the non pros for some reason.
I also really don't like dark girls. Are they all dark? Looking at Youtube videos of the nightlife it seems most have more than a drop of african in them.
Lastly, I hate when local punks always single my pale ass out and try to sell me stuff when I'm walking down the street. Cartagena is notorious for this.
If I go to DR it will be soon. Like next week. I need a break.
Thanks

Thanks[/QUOTE]Okay, this is MY opinion to your question. Hopefully it will not start up a Santo Domingo vs Puerto Plata / Sosua war. Speaking from my experience and mine only:
- When I went to Boca Chica and hung out by the beach, I was approached by locals often. Someone was constantly coming up and interrupting my conversation trying to sell me on everything from a massage to what was termed jewelry to raw fish.
- When I went to Santo Domingo, I had a good time but whenever I went out walking and I love walking, I would constantly be approached by kids asking to shine my shoes for money or from guys who want to show me casas that I already knew about. They mainly wanted to walk in with me in order to get a commission from the club, plus I was constantly asked if I needed a taxi. Every corner: taxi, taxi, taxi! I should have rented a car.
- In Sosua when I went out walking, I was constantly approached by kids asking to shine my shoes for money, dudes on motorbikes asking if I needed a lift, street guys who wanted to sell me viagra or exchange money with them, and local guys who wanted to be my travel guide. Not to mention the guys and girls selling the bootleg videos, CD's, other items. Sosua beach is Vendor heaven! Has this been cleaned up recently? Not sure. Vets who have been down recently will have to chime in on that.
- In Puerto Plata, I stayed at Blackbeards and walked around the immediate area and for the most part, I didn't branch out any further, unless I wanted a taxi ride to the closest ATM. I was not harrassed by locals when I stayed at Blackbeards or when I walked around in the immediate area. There was one regular local guy that I remember that would come by and just ask everyone if they wanted to buy any of what looked to be bootlegged music CD's and that was it. Outside of that, it was all about hanging at the bar with your fellow mongerers, hanging by the pool, or fucking the chicas who hung by the pool. Completely hassle-free.
Would I call all of the above "hassling"? Not necessarily. True, it eventually starts to get irritating, but as long as I can wave my finger or just say No once and they go away, I am okay. It's the ones who don't take no for an answer, those are the irritants, and I do admit that I got ticked off more than once in Boca Chica. It just seemed continuous and a couple guys just trying and trying and trying after I said no multiple times. Maybe it was just a bad day for me, but again just speaking of my experience. And yes, I understand the constant selling as they are just trying to feed their families, but sometimes it's like "Damn!"
I don't mention chicas anywhere above, because I don't define women who want me to fuck them as "hassling". It's a good thing to be able to tell competing chicas "No no no, I can't fuck you in the ass today. I'm going to fuck her in the ass today. Can I fuck you in the ass tomorrow, say around 10am?"
As for the women, I saw all shades of brown from light skinned to darker skinned. You will not see all dark skinned girls. Based on my experience, I don't think I could even say "mostly". As a matter of fact, after my Santo Domingo trip, I told some of my boys back in Atlanta that I just left "Redbone heaven", based on the fact that I saw so many fine light skinned honeys in the casas.
Okay well that's my take on some of your questions. I can't speak to your wish to wine and dine some non-pros. At the moment, I'm 100% pay for play. I pay them, fuck them, they leave and then it's WHO'S NEXT!
Good luck.

Coming to Black Beards in about a week, staying for five days and I was wondering if there was a gym in the area that is available to tourist. I'm not looking for any power house free wait type of facility with big monsters in there working out. I'm middle aged but still like to work out a half hour to forty five minutes every other day, I prefer more machine type of places with cybex and other types of machines, life cycles and such. I've found as I have gotten older that a brisk half hour to forty five minute work out every other day helps to keep my testosterone levels up. So is there any place like this near Black Beards.
Thanks

Chris[/QUOTE]Chris,
There is a gym at the golf country club in costombar walking distance from BB's. It will cost you 25 dollars for the week. A mix of weights, machines, and cardio but small. Just ask Tim where it is at. There also used to be an old gym by the old gym bar which I would use. For the most part you could just walk in but at times it would be pad locked and nobody in Costombar knew who had the damn key. It had old equipment and weights, no cardio stuff, but good enough for weight lifting. If it is still there you could try it if you wanted to save 25 dollars. Once again ask Tim where the gym bar used to be and you have to walk around back to get to it.
All these places are mis-match of equipment and weights dont expect a back home gym. Your going to have to modify your workout.

The DR is a place where there is a street economy and direct solicitation to buy products and services is part of life. Usually it is not the color of your skin that makes you are target, but the fact that your dress or demeanor marks you as a visitor.

it really depends on two things:

I'm headed to BB June 12-19. Sitting around the pool for a week or going to Sosua for diving is not going to work. So I through I'll do a couple of excursions with female companionship. The lunch on the beach, a day in Cabarete, cable car to Mount Isabel de Torres, the 27 water falls or a dinner and dancing in Puerto Plata are possibilities. Don't think I would feel comfortable on a commercial tour with a chica so I'm thinking about skipping the tours and hiring a car / driver. What do you guys think? Good idea? Bad idea? Which of the BB chicas would be good candidates to take on an excursion? My Spanish is zero. So a traveling companion with basic English skills is a requirement. Next question is what would it cost for the chicas time, half day (6 hours) , all day (12 hours) .24 hours?
In the past I brought small boxes of chocolates to hand out with the chicas payment. Worked well. It focused their attention to what was in the box rather than the pesos and I usually received a big smile and kiss. This trip I'm thinking about bringing down some panties as gifts. My through was to give them out between leches. It will kill time while I recharge and will be fun watching the chica chose her gift and trying it on. The problem is I'm not sure what size to buy. A response of 'depends on what type you like' does not help. I don't what to come home with a bunch of under wanted gifts. I need to know if you think most of the BB chicas are small (size 4-6) or medium (size 8-10). No clue why Target does not have a size 7 & I'm ruling out large (11-13).
Any advice or suggestions are appreciated.

had the pleasure of spending the afternoon with jaime and kai, the owners of f. o. d. the sight of kai with her great personality alone is worth the visit. they also have partners who were there and were very kind. they said they are dedicated long term to this project. the currents special is: a girl of your choice, room, and complete use of the resort for 2000p for two hours. they have an all-inclusive that also includes drinks and food at a great price. now is the time to go because jaime is very flexible.
there is a sex room (view video) , massage room (view video) , bar, computer, pool, pool table, and private jacuzzi. the sex rooms have chains on the wall and sex swings (damn i love this place). maria of bb fame is the massage lady (i love her seriously). rooms start at 45usd and go to 120usd for the "king room" in the pictures. jaime said the "king room" can be had for 100usd per night currently. playa dorado is going condo so now is the time to go and enjoy the best of what f. o. d. has to offer.
so gentleman if you want a quiet vacation in a tropical resort with 15 lovely women feeding you grapes in a hammock, paradise awaits.
gogo has vested interest in this resort.

That was a miss-print, I have NO vested interest in FOD.
[QUOTE=Charles Pooter; 1286067]I live in Puerto Plata but have never been interested in that particular service, so I cannot help much. Field of Dreams has usually provided massages with happy endings under its various managements and they were advertized when I last dropped in about four weeks ago, but the new management is apparently trying to go "upmarket" so I am not sure whether they would now be overpriced or not.
It really depends on two things:
1) Do you want a proper massage with a happy ending, or just a hand-job. If the latter, any puta or semi-puta would be glad to oblige you for between 200 and 400 pesos.
2) Can you take them back to your apartment or hotel? If not, hiring a room even short-time would cost more than the hand-job itself.
Most cheap-looking massage places the masseuse would probably "finish you off" for an extra 200 pesos, but most of them look like dogs. I personally wouldn't enjoy that even if free.[/QUOTE]Although the FOD has any number of attractive chicas who can give you a massage with a happy ending, what they do have on site is a REAL masseuse with a certificate from her training and years of experience. Her name is Maria and she was at the FOD a while ago and the new owners have brought her back. There is a separate massage room and Maria gives a true, deep muscle massage that compares to any massage that I have ever had a health club. She is very professional, incredibly talented and will NOT even consider a happy ending. For about $20 US for an hour, it is probably the best real massage that I have had in the Puerto Plata area.

About 30 mongers enjoyed a great afternoon at Field of Dreams today. There were about 30 girls present including the "house" putas, also visiting putas presumably organized by the new management, and those brought in by mongers. Quality was variable but there were some unattached real good lookers there, so no excuse for any monger to go home alone. (No haitianas except the two I and my friend brought with us but, hey, nothing is perfect!)
The Bikini Contest itself was tame with only eight fairly average entrants but overall it was a great afternoon for socializing, using the pool, ogling scantily dressed chicas and collecting phone numbers.
Now let's see if the new management can keep it going!

The Field of Dreams is repeating the format of their bikini contest of last Wednesday by hosting a wet t-shirt afternoon. All the info is on their site. But I presume that it will be much the same as the bikini contest but will hopefully include lots more girls. The BBQ specials are also being offered. Check out the web site for details.

[QUOTE=John from NJ; 1288548]I'm headed to BB June 12-19. Sitting around the pool for a week or going to Sosua for diving is not going to work. So I through I'll do a couple of excursions with female companionship. The lunch on the beach, a day in Cabarete, cable car to Mount Isabel de Torres, the 27 water falls or a dinner and dancing in Puerto Plata are possibilities. Don't think I would feel comfortable on a commercial tour with a chica so I'm thinking about skipping the tours and hiring a car / driver. What do you guys think? Good idea? Bad idea? Which of the BB chicas would be good candidates to take on an excursion? My Spanish is zero. So a traveling companion with basic English skills is a requirement. Next question is what would it cost for the chicas time, half day (6 hours) , all day (12 hours).24 hours?
In the past I brought small boxes of chocolates to hand out with the chicas payment. Worked well. It focused their attention to what was in the box rather than the pesos and I usually received a big smile and kiss. This trip I'm thinking about bringing down some panties as gifts. My through was to give them out between leches. It will kill time while I recharge and will be fun watching the chica chose her gift and trying it on. The problem is I'm not sure what size to buy. A response of 'depends on what type you like' does not help. I don't what to come home with a bunch of under wanted gifts. I need to know if you think most of the BB chicas are small (size 4-6) or medium (size 8-10). No clue why Target does not have a size 7 & I'm ruling out large (11-13).
Any advice or suggestions are appreciated.[/QUOTE]Just a suggestion.
I have a novia with a classic Dominicana bottom.
To my surprise, she insists her undies, pants, etc. Are 'Small'.
When one sees her in her ultra-tight jeans, its no wonder.
I swear they are painted on.
Compared with most fat-assed American women, suggest you go with the Small, and a very few medium.
Most chicas at BB are in this category, haven't seen pics of any recently I would call Large.
(Having viewed the post of the recent BB Bikini Contest, I'm even more sure. Most are in pretty good shape, and would rather have the panties tight rather than loose)
And Damn, Yohanny was looking good.
Yanqui69 is as usual spot on with his insightful information. I buy panties from Victoria's Secret all small and a few medium. On their web site they have a clearance section that will have some very good deals. The best part is you can return them when you get back to the states if you need to.

Let people think that Colombia sucks, more for me and you, hahaha.
Colombia es muy peligroso. And the girls have flat asses.
Fact is that the people in Colombia have skin that come in all colors, a good portion of the people are much darker than most Domincans actually. Go to the coast or the city of Cali and don't forget the indigenous folks, very dark.
I have bedded two of the girls in the first video and partied with the "Teflon Monger" in both the DR and Colombia, a cool dude. He got cut up by a girl a while back, in the DR by the way, not in Colombia.

I have been to Black Beards and I can say I am totally not sold. I read guys raving about the place. It is a sleep in working girl house. The women are seasoned and not very spontaneous. When I was in Sosua I met some semi pros college girls. One girl did not know how much to charge. No doubt Sosua has some hardened vets. However the high turn over offers some nice options. I also like the perception that I am hunting them.

Headed to blackbeards this week and after reading previous posts I was wondering if there's even a need to stop at Jenny's market and exchange to pesos.
As far as I understand the hotel and the girls can be paid in USD. So that would just leave paying for drinks and maybe massage in pesos?

Yes you can pay in USD but why would you. I went to blackbeards on May 28-29th. I didn't give a report because they wasn't anything new to report. The only advice I can give is to pace yourself. It very easy to go through money when you see the girls. Take some time to develop a rapport with the girls you like (this could be only 10mins). Try to pay your bill as you go so that you can keep track on your tab. If you use the phone there with a calling card to call home be aware that if googled the Blackbeard number shows up. I have to credit to BB with not giving any info when called back. Whew! Have fun.

[QUOTE=Professor 1;1292443]When I am in the DR, I only deal in pesos. I change money at Jenny's Market before going to Blackbeards, although you do not have to do so.[/QUOTE]It's worth the few extra minutes to stop into Jenny's on the way into BB's. They offer the highest exchange rate on the north coast owing to the many foriegn expats that live in Costambar where BB's is located. You can indeed pay in USD at BB's but you'll tend to overpay a little trying to figure out the math on your transactions. I normally exchange $7-800 bucks right away on the way in. If you pay your room bill in pesos you'll save a few bucks too. Ask their cashier to break a few of your 1000 peso notes into hundreds. One pop at BB's costs $1, 600 pesos but it's OK to tip the chica for GREAT service 100-200 pesos but you don't have to. I find it awkward to ask the chica to make change but I don't want to pay her 2, 000 pesos either, and I have more than a few times. Keep in mind that 100 pesos is worth about $2. 70 give or take so don't freak out about 100 pesos. Stopping at Jenny's also gives your the option to pick up any basic toiletries that TSA made you toss in the trash. Later, you can walk the 10 minutes to Jenny's when you need more pesos as BB's exchange rate at the desk isn't as good, nor should it be, as they're not a bank. I believe the sign in front of Jenny's is spelled "Yenny's" so look for that. It's on the right as soon as you pass thru the Costamber security gate. Enjoy your trip!

At that time the rate was 38. 8. So 700 x 38. 8 = 27150. Had I exchanged my money at BB's instead and got the 36. 5 rate that would have been 700 x 36. 5 = 25550. 27150. 25550 = 1650. The way I look at it, exchanging at Jenny's got me one extra session with a chica.
The Field of Dreams web site shows a karaoke event this Saturday. How many guys intend to go? This is not your conventional chica hotel event. But could maybe be good for a laugh. I wonder if they're going to sing topless. The web site also shows that the FOD is going to have another bikini contest next Wednesday and a wet t-shirt contest the following Saturday. Whatever you say about the new owners, they're definitely filling up the place with events. And the girls are always there as well. It's been a long time since the FOD has had this kind of activity.

I attended the events last Wednesday and Saturday and have never seen so many guys and girls (about 30 of each both days) and I have been patronizing FoD since the early days. Everybody guy I spoke to (and that was most present) had a great time (of course, the weather helped, plus the reasonably priced drinks and food).
I hope Field of Dreams can keep going as there is not much to do monger-wise on the North Coast in the afternoons (except Sosua Beach) and there is no other meeting point for mongers in the Puerto Plata area, so FoD is filling a need on both counts. Those who had never been there before commented that it is the most pleasant monger location on the North Coast, if not in the whole of the DR, now all the plants which Dominican Billy put in have matured and successive owners have added their own improvements.
Two bits of advice;
(1) You are obviously one of the owners of FoD, so stop posting as if you were some disinterested third party. John from Barba Negra finds no difficulty in posting here as himself, giving out information as you have just done, answering questions and meeting occasional criticisms. I think it would benefit you to follow his lead.
(2) The day of the Bikini Contest was a great success, but the contest itself was feeble and dragged out to extraordinary lengths. The same eight, mainly mediocre, chicas were paraded at least five times to a deafening commentary in broken English aggravated by the usual Dominican behaviour of shouting into the microphone so it all got hopelessly distorted. Most of the good-looking chicas present (and there were quite a few) did not enter. If you cannot persuade them to enter next time then I suggest you streamline the presentation somewhat and put the commentary into the hands of an English speaker.

From reading the FOD web site I was getting the impression you choose one girl and she stays with you the whole day and night.

In four visits since the new owners took over I don't recognise a single one of the chicas illustrated on their website. In one of the guests' testimonials quoted, the writer speaks of the "8 or 10 girls" usually to be found there. This agrees with my impressions and they are not remotely of the quality of those illustrated or as good as the Barba Negra chicas on average.
As I mentioned in a previous post, there were a lot more chicas there on the two recent event days, including some good lookers. A few obviously came along with guys but where the rest came from I have no idea. They are presumably not employed by Field of Dreams as, firstly, they did not enter the Bikini Contest, and, secondly, my friends took out a couple of them and were not required to pay a salida.
I am told the minimum the "house" chicas will charge is 1400 pesos and they get to keep all they take (no cut for the house). They are required to be there at least three days a week from 11. 00am to 6. 00pm.
It is early days yet and the set-up is still evolving. I think the new management are still feeling their way. For example, within a few days my friends were quoted 600 pesos for the use of a room for ST, then 400 pesos, then a couple of days later 800 pesos.
My advice is go along and enjoy the place for what it is. Don't expect it to be like on the website or like Barba Negra.
It has traditionally been a favorite haunt of more mature and slightly more affluent mongers who either have steady girlfriends or like to find their own non-pros or semi-pros locally, who might wish to take advantage of the golf course opposite and the beach at Playa Dorada and who like its convenient position near the main road Santiago / Puerto Plata / Sosua / Cabarete. Useful to have a few house chicas on site if you feel the urgent need of relief, but I wouldn't recommend it for someone who wants a holiday with a large choice of chicas laid on a plate. Barba Negra is far better for that.
Now whether the place will evolve into something nearer its own website image remains to be seen.

I was there for one of these events and can confirm that the quality of the girls was not great but a good time was had by all.

Come on guys, hire a cute bartender with big tits who knows how to open beer and keep a tab straight.

The new Coral Highway is supposed to open in July. A 400 million dollar, four lane highway which will begin near La Romana and go to the tourist regions in the eastern part of the country (Punta Cana, Bavaro etc). The new highway will supposedly cut the vehicular travel time between Santo Domingo and the eastern tourist region by 50% (should also be a safer, part of the ride on a modern 4 lane highway).

There might be small airplane and / or helicopter service between an airport in Puerto Plata (POP) and PUJ (an airport for punta cana).
[QUOTE=Charles Pooter; 1293039]Totally endorse the last sentence. I attended the events last Wednesday and Saturday and have never seen so many guys and girls (about 30 of each both days) and I have been patronizing FoD since the early days. Everybody guy I spoke to (and that was most present) had a great time (of course, the weather helped, plus the reasonably priced drinks and food).
I hope Field of Dreams can keep going as there is not much to do monger-wise on the North Coast in the afternoons (except Sosua Beach) and there is no other meeting point for mongers in the Puerto Plata area, so FoD is filling a need on both counts. Those who had never been there before commented that it is the most pleasant monger location on the North Coast, if not in the whole of the DR, now all the plants which Dominican Billy put in have matured and successive owners have added their own improvements.[/QUOTE]This post answered a lot as to my curiosity of how FOD is going at the moment. Thanks for the post Sir Pooter!
[QUOTE=Charles Pooter;1293039](2) The day of the Bikini Contest was a great success, but the contest itself was feeble and dragged out to extraordinary lengths. The same eight, mainly mediocre, chicas were paraded at least five times to a deafening commentary in broken English aggravated by the usual Dominican behaviour of shouting into the microphone so it all got hopelessly distorted. [b]Most of the good-looking chicas present (and there were quite a few) did not enter.[/b] If you cannot persuade them to enter next time then I suggest you streamline the presentation somewhat and put the commentary into the hands of an English speaker.[/QUOTE]I am not sure if FOD made nudity a requirement to be in the bikini contest, but I am willing to bet that it was a very big deterrent for most (of the hotter-looking) chicas. As far as I know BB's does not have their chicas perform nude for their bikini contest, which is probably why there is always a nice selection of talent available for the contests compared to the photos I've seen of the FOD contest. I think the chicas are much more comfortable being photographed in a bikini as opposed to being photographed in a bikini AND topless.
[QUOTE=SavePros321;1293590]I am not sure if FOD made nudity a requirement to be in the bikini contest, but I am willing to bet that it was a very big deterrent for most (of the hotter-looking) chicas.[/QUOTE]No, it wasnt a requirement, though one volunteered enthusiastically to take of her top and was rewarded with first prize (I think 1000 pesos, but I could be wrong).
Having visited again since, I think all the chicas who are registered as self-employed there entered, and those just dropping in for the day didn't. Under past regimes FoD have allowed visitors to enter the contest too. That hasn't always done a lot to raise the standard but it made it more fun as the guys cheered or jeered the chicas they knew.
Quite a few guys I know will be there this afternoon (Saturday) from about 2.30pm for karaoke so any Irish tenors or boy sopranos among you will be welcome.
[QUOTE=SavePros321;1293590]This post answered a lot as to my curiosity of how FOD is going at the moment.[/QUOTE]These were fun afternoons but were special "events" and not typical. I imagine it will be deadly quiet other days until the clientele builds up.
I've been to field of dream last week. The quality of the girls was average but I met one that was leaving to go home. A true spinner.
I enjoy every second of it. Planning to go back there today or tomorrow.
Not trying to hate but was as FOD yesterday and it was not worth it, I was happy going away. Seems more like a place that you would bring back a girl to rather than a place to pick up girls. Forme IMHO.

[QUOTE=Doker44;1297675]This is what I was afraid of, same old same old, they seem to have always and continue to try to want to copy the BB model.[/QUOTE]I agree this is doomed to failure as Blackbeards has had many years to iron out the problems and is a smooth-running operation. But it is not true that FOD has "always" tried to copy Blackbeards. Its creator and operator for its first four years, Dominican Billy, banned putas from hanging out on the premises apart from his masseuse, so that was hardly like Blackbeards. He understood better than subsequent owners what the strengths of the place were and was the only owner of the business not to run at a loss. He had other problems but they were nothing to do with his basic strategy in that respect.
[QUOTE=Doker44;1297675]Problem is BB's is just about as good as it could get and IMO in a better location.[/QUOTE]I admire your unswerving loyalty to Blackbeards and I agree it is a valuable resource, but this should not lead you to make unthinking statements like this.
Field of Dreams is directly on the main road serving Pto Pta, the airport, Sosua, the airport, Cabarete and, in the other direction, Santiago. It has a large secure carpark for those with a vehicle (Blackbeards doesn't) and is amply served by frequent and cheap public transport for those that don't have a car.
Blackbeards is in the middle of nowhere. You either need a car, which most sensible posters would agree is not a smart option for many visitors and is in any case expensive, or you are at the mercy of the notorious Costambar taxi mafia. It is inconvenient to access by public transport and impossible to do so later at night. It takes two or three times as long to get to Puerto Plata, the airport or Sosua. It is nearer the beach than Field of Dreams but not many gringos in the know would trust Costambar beach for swimming. Field of Dreams is also opposite the golf course, cinema, and sports bars of Playa Dorada.
[QUOTE=Doker44;1297675]Not sure why you would every go out of your way to bring a girl back to FOD when there are nice Cabanas all over the place.[/QUOTE]This is also a bizarre comment. The reason why you would bring a chica back to Field of Dreams, and why it wouldn't be going out of your way to do so, is that you would be staying there.
Do you go onto the Sosua board and ask why people staying at the New Garden bother to take chicas back there when they could take them to a cabana? Why would anyone want to pay for his chica-friendly hotel-room [u]and[/u] A cabana? Your comment doesn't make sense.
In my opinion it is a slightly nicer place to stay than Blackbeards, though both are great, and how good hosts the new managers will be remains to be seen. Blackbeards is best for those who want to stay and play on campus with full-time professional putas. Nothing wrong with that. It is what I did on my first ever DR trip. But on my seven subsequent trips I preferred to stay at Field of Dreams and Harbor View and find my own chicas, usually semi-pros. This would not have worked well at Blackbeards plus I would have been paying a premium for services I wasn't using.
A lot of guys who have visited Blackbeards have felt confined and bored after a few days. If you want to get out and about, then Field of Dreams is far better located but it is not for newbies who want everything laid on a plate. I think we both agree that attempting to turn it into the sort of place that is for newbies, in competition with Blackbeards, will be an uphill and probably doomed struggle.
They would be better off following Dominican Billy's basic model, but with the benefit of all the many improvements subsequent owners have installed, and with a cash reserve for contingencies that Billy always lacked. That could work.
I have been to BB's many many times but on this next trip will be at FOD for two nights before spending 6 nights at BB's. I just want to see first hand what the differences are as everyone's experiences are unique. For me it is about having options and FOD may provide just that. I am curious about the selection that might be available but I have an updated list of previous contacts so I am not worried. I casually mentioned my return to a chica I know and with in an hour I had texts from 4 others that "heard" I was returning. You have to love the net work these girls have! I have rented a car over 20 times and enjoy the freedom it allows. Personally, I prefer a low key laid back experience and BB's offers me that and I am sure that FOD will as well.
This trip will be interesting as I have a short list of things I have never done in all my trips:
1. Sosua at night. I need to see for myself what it is like.
2. Session at Passions.
3. Window shop at Crystals (spelling) meat market here I come!
4. Connect with some of you that live on the North Coast to learn a bit more about the area etc. I will be sending out a few PM's to see what we can arrange. Dinner and drinks are on me.
I will be in the DR from July 16 to 24. I hope to meet some old friends and make some new ones.
[QUOTE=Traveler04;1297875]I am curious about the selection that might be available [at FoD].[/QUOTE]I wouldn't advise anyone to visit Field of Dreams just for their in-house chicas, although they claim to be working on increasing the quantity and quality.
In that respect you could compare it to the chicas who hang round New Garden in Sosua. Lots of mongers prefer New Garden, but very few of them, if any, stay there for the in-house chicas. But if you are already staying there for other reasons it can be convenient sometimes having a chica on site to bust a nut if you don't feel like going out. Every now and then a little diamond of a new chica will surface at the New Garden but not many non-residents would go there looking for chicas.
I would say the same applies to Field of Dreams. After a recent party there some guys have posted it was the best few hours of their trip, a real fun occasion with lots of chicas and at least four real good lookers. But that was a special occasion and it was beautiful weather. If you just walk in cold you will likely find nothing that takes your fancy.
I look on it as a great chica-friendly hotel not as a great brothel. But that is OK because if you are picking up semi-pros and non-pros they might not be comfortable going back to a brothel with you.
Good post Traveler04. I know you are a supporter of Blackbeards but at least you like to keep an open mind and realise that all mongers are different and have different preferences. It is not "one size fits all" and we need different establishments to cater for different preferences.
I am very surprised that after (20+?) trips there are so many things left on your bucket list. I hope you enjoy ticking them off and maybe we will meet up while you are doing so.
Some of you may find this appetizing:

A friend of mine [NOTHING to do with the management there] is organizing a Private Pool Party for his friends at Field of Dreams on Saturday 7 July. ISG members are also welcome to attend.
What I am told is this:
The hotel will be closed to other visitors that afternoon and evening (apart, of course, from anyone already staying there).
The FoD management will be inviting some extra chicas to attend beside their own in-house girls. Last time they did so the results were very satisfactory and a good time was had by all.
All the chicas are expected to go topless. Not sure if that is for all the time or just for an hour or two.
We are also welcome to bring our own chicas but they must go topless while the "locals" are. (My girlfriend is indignant about this and may not attend).
An entry fee of 500 pesos will be charged to all males. Also to any guest chicas who don't go topless. This money will be distributed among [b]the chicas the management has organized[/b] So that any who don't find clients will at least get some food money and transport paid in return for going topless. Any guest chicas you bring won't share that money even if they go stark naked the whole time (nice thought though).
Rooms will be 600 pesos for ST for those that want them.
There is a jacuzzi and last time there was quite a bit of activity there. I believe there is no charge for using the jacuzzi, but I will check on that.
The management will be doing a beer or Cuba libre and hotdog special for 125 pesos. There will also be hamburgers and a full restaurant menu available. Bar and food prices are reasonable. I would guess much the same as Blackbeards though I haven't really paid much attention to them because I never eat out these days.
Guys should start turning up at Field of Dreams from 2. 00pm.
Some of the guys will be meeting at Rocky's at 1. 30pm and walking to the parada to share a dedicated publico direct to FOD. If I get more info on this I will post it.
Last time we did this it was a fun afternoon, but it is no good arriving and expecting to find another Blackbeards or Classicos. It is what it is and the chicas are what they are. Look on it as a change of pace and scenery, especially for those of you who never shift your butts outside of Blackbeards or Sosua. Come with a positive attitude and you will enjoy yourselves, meet some old friends and make some new ones.
Of course this largely depends on the weather. There is plenty of shelter there and I can think of a few worse places to be holed up, but it really needs nice weather to take off.
Some of you Sosua guys who don't know Puerto Plata might want to go on into town after the FoD part breaks up and have a look around, especially if you have transport.
Now here is the thing: [b]It is a Private Party. [/b]
My friend said ISG members are welcome to attend if I (Charles Pooter) am notified in advance. If you would like to come, send me a PM by Thursday 5 July latest. The management needs to know how many guys are coming so they can round up an at least equal number of chicas. [b]If you do not notify me in advance you will not be admitted. That is what "Private" means in this context. [/b]
So far we have had 20 acceptances but if the weather is OK I would expect around 30 guys and 30 gals to actually turn up.
I hope some of you can make it and I look forward to seeing you there.

Charles, you obviously know a ton and are a valued member I can't take that away from you and thanks for all the info. As far as my "unswerving loyalty to Blackbeards" sure does seem you are setting up and talking up FOD lately. I try to tell it like it is for the benefit of the board. Several years ago I wrote BB reports that John would not be happy with but they were true. When I find FOD to be the best couple hours of my trip I will report it. I have been to the DR many times and know exactly where FOD is located and have also been there. True I have not been in there since the ownership change. But how is me liking BB's location better then FOD's location an "unthinking statement". I can't argue with the a-hole cab drivers in Costambar but please it does not take anywhere near 3 times longer to get to Sousa. Plus BB's is only 3 or 4 minutes from the same main road FOD is on by car. As far as location I cringe at the thought at going into Playa Dorado to a bar or movie. I like hanging at the low key beach drinking beer and eating at one of the bars on the beach. Not to mention all the local places in Costambar. Its really just my preference I just believe this whole BB's is in the middle of nowhere and FOD isn't is absurd. As far as I am concerned FOD is in the middle of nowhere also.
Not sure I follow your New Garden analogy. People stay at New Garden their entire trip while in Sousa not to just drop in for a room. If your point is that someone has a girl lined up and wants to stay at FOD and hang in PP I get that, but most mongers arent hanging in PP and therefore I think there are better options.
I have nothing against FOD I wish them the best and competition is good and like I said I will drop in soon. It just can be an out of the way place to go if nothing is happening for most visiting mongers. I just like to pass accurate info like I got when I first started reading this board.
Seriously though thanks Charles for all you valuable info.

Sooo here's a little insight on my part on Puerto Plata.
Let me be clear I didn't stay in Pop I actually stayed in Sosua but I drove there everyday in my rental
Kia picanto.
Far from lazy doing 80-100 miles an hr driving on the wrong side of the road at times it took me 15. 18 min which I timed.
BLACKBEARDS.
BB is still & truly amazing hands down.
Any newbie must stop by & shake Tim's hand for a wonderful.
Job he has done.
Even if they are fully booked I reconmend.
Still dropping by and having a Drink and chatting it up.
Especially during one of the amazing chica activities.
& also there is always parking in front.
Just pull in front & park.
FIELD OF DREAMS.
FOD-this place has ALOT of potential!
Yes newly reopened & under new management.
But me being who I am.
I had no problem walking in and meeting the new folks.
Must say They are two folks who you can kick it witg.
Good friend Jose also gave me a wonderful tour & the rooms were amazing.
Ask Him to seee Room #3 the bathroom by itself is huge and very nice amenities.
I can tell that party on July 7 will be crazy (FYI heard all girl will be topless & in bikini)
Not sure but thats what I heard.
Now for the newbies I guess the big issue
Is getting around & worries about taking a Taxi.
My advice rent a Car.
My four day rental came up to $133. 00 w Insurance (just in case)
Only bad thing I seen was a dead motorconcho rider.
Its easy navigating and driving down there.
Also I speak NO Spanish.
Ok I know
Hola= Hello,
Tu Nombre= your name?
So the key too me if you want a fun trip.
& your not shy to walkin up to ANY girl and say Hello,
Then get a rental and visit BOTH places.
Why limit yourself?
Alll girls can be Taken.
Just don't be an Ass (o) hole!
Safe journey
Hello,
I'm looking to stay a BlackBeards resort sometime in the next 2 months but most of the women I see in the newsletter are slim build. I was wondering if they have more curvaceous women?
I like a pretty face, nice big ass and curvy hips.
If not where can I find that type of women in the Dominican Rep?
Thanks in advance
The beauty of the DR and BB's is there is something for everyone! BB's has over 50 women of all sizes and shapes. This will be a good start for your first trip. Email BB's and ask them if they have a couple that might match what your looking for. They may send you a few pictures to help you with your decision if you ask.

The road passed a few places where pedestrians were on the side of the road and some crossed the road. Other places there was a two foot ditch off to the side of the road for when it rains. I saw at least one motorcycle with no lights on that road at night. I almost hit a dark colored horse that was in the middle of the road at night near playa dorada complex. Dogs will sometime run onto the road. I can remember driving on that road one afternoon and a large truck coming in the opposite direction in my lane, straight at me (he was passing).
There are excellent highways in the DR, that go through non-populated areas, where you could more safely drive fast. The road between Sosua and Puerto Plata, I would not drive overly fast.
Arriving in Puerto Plata on 27. 7. On my way to Boca chica. Anyone who wanne share a taxi?
[QUOTE=Infamous Man;1300099]I can tell that party [at F O D] on July 7 will be crazy (FYI heard all girl will be topless & in bikini). Not sure but thats what I heard.[/QUOTE]Lets's not get over-excited. Weather permitting it should be a good afternoon but I am not expecting a wild orgy. (Never know how things will turn out in the DR, though).
I asked the guy organizing it if the topless rule would be enforced and he replied "only 50%". I don't know if that means half the chicas will be topless or they will all expose one breast only. I am not really a breast man so I am not too fussed.
[QUOTE=Infamous Man;1300099]My advice rent a Car . and visit BOTH places [Barba Negra and F O D].[/QUOTE]Rent a car by all means if you understand what you are taking on legally, but you certainly don't need one to get to F O D. It's a dollar ride each way from Sosua and less from Puerto Plata, day or night.
I agree Blackbeards can be tricky or expensive to access or leave after dark unless you have your own vehicle.
[QUOTE=The Mind Bender; 1300300]Hello,
I'm looking to stay a BlackBeards resort sometime in the next 2 months but most of the women I see in the newsletter are slim build. I was wondering if they have more curvaceous women?
I like a pretty face, nice big ass and curvy hips.
If not where can I find that type of women in the Dominican Rep?
Thanks in advance[/QUOTE]I think you should go. You will be please with the selection so many pretty girls of all size. Now don't get me wrong if it is a curvy, big tit big ass like Nicki Minaj, or a short fat ass girl like Snookie, No. I think you will find some pretty face curvy nice ass girls like a young Jennifer Lopez, Beyonce, Mariah Carey and as mention Wanda just one of a few. I too like those thick big tit, big curvy ass girls and always find what I 'm looking for at Blackbeard's, on every trip. So Just Do It.
What I don't have is that same opinion of BB's as Mr. Pooter nor do I have all the history and knowledge he has in regards to FOD. I have been making trips to the Dominican Republic for the last six years every 3-4 months for at least 2 weeks per trip and very few are for vacation. On most of these trips I make it a point to stay at BB's my last few days before returning back to the USA and I'm not a newbie. I have bang out a good share of semi pro's mostly in Santiago and Santa Domingo which is where I chose to hunt semi pro's and I use a villa or apartment not a hotel. What I have not found is anything better then BB's on the island.
I have always said in pass post on this board that I end my trip with a stay at BB's to relax and enjoy 1 or 2 ST sexy pretty chicas, each nigth, great food at a good price and good helpful infor from fellow mongers and most importantly a good no nosie night of sleep. No hunting for azz, no negotiations to be had, no drunks, no street hustlers in your face which all goes along with the hunt does get old after a week or so. I feel Mr. Pooter has the girls at BB's mixed up with real professional putas like those in Boca Chica. What I found was girls at BB's some new on every trip was sweet, tight and tender but took care of business better than the high price Passion sweet things or even semi pro's at times. In addition, as a man I can never be bored around so much pus / and I have a car which stays park unless some fellow mongers want to get together and go to Puerto Plata, lust to the main road or even to Sosua.
I will again be in the DR on July 8th for a short trip and on my last few days I will stop in at FOD to say hello to an old friend, Jose, right before I head to Blackbeard's where I will stay and play on campus and have a lot of pure good and bad fun.
I like bb but it is a hotel with aworking brothel. The girls are pretty hard core after few weekson the job. They also have weight restrictions. You will not see any big volition girls. Price and congruence can not be beat / o just do like brothels.
Leo.

Certainly I wouldn't disagree with anything in your post. I am a great admirer of Blackbeards. When so many fine establishments only enjoy a brief heyday and then close or go downhill fast, I think we North Coast mongers are lucky that John has kept Blackbeards not only open but improving in many respects. It is the best at what it does and I would always recommend it as a good place to start for an inexperienced newbie, though I appreciate that many other types of monger enjoy it as well and return repeatedly, which is the best recommendation.
I have never been to Boca Chica and have no desire to, but to me any chica working at Blackbeards is a "professional puta". There is always new meat coming into any establishment, whether Blackbeards, FoD, Passions, CMP or wherever, but it is usually the guys already staying there or who are frequent visitors who get first crack at it.
Any problem I have is not with Blackbeards, but with guys who like it there and think every other place should copy it and then be criticised for not matching it. Not everyone wants to stay in a brothel. Not everyone wants to give all their chica money to full-time putas. Not everyone wants to rent a car and there are good reasons not to (ask Hillybilly69). There need to be other places for other guys who like different types of mongering holidays. And even the biggest fans of Blackbeards might like to try something different now and again. Mongering may be a sport, but it is not like supporting a football team where your team is beyond criticism and all the other teams and their supporters are your enemies. It is not only some Blackbeards fans who can be blinkered like this. You find the same with patrons of the New Garden, Passions, and other places. Loyalty to a place where you have always got good service is a fine thing, but it doesn't follow you are obligated to libel every other establishment.
The reason why John has succeeded at Blackbeards is that he had a business plan and stuck to it consistently. I don't get the same feeling about Field of Dreams. I think the guys are feeling their way and seeing what works. In my opinion taking on Blackbeards head-to-head is not the way to go but it will be interesting to see what happens.

I guess I have just been lucky to get or pick new chicas or fresh new face chicas but I have repeated with a few chicas from past visits that I had a ball with. Your infor in regards to car rental and what happen to Hillbilly69 is a must read for all so again I feel lucky again because I'm required to rent a car for with every legal standard in place. I agree guys should'nt feel every place should be like BB's and criticised others for not matching but lets take it a step further. Why criticised any place or establishment unless they gave you real bad service, over charge plus treated you bad or cheated you or worst thats the information I look for. I'm a patron to what I'm in the mood for while on the north coast, Passions, Crisatal (mis-spell) or hung out and stay at New Garden. Mr Pooter I agree with all you say in your response and thank you for your information.
Best advice newbies.
Check out everything.
Who eats STEAK everyday? Not Meee.
I think the more variety is what will make our selection even better.
BB or FOD or New Garden cannot hold alll the putas on the island.
So having all these places open just make it easier for.
Newbies who arent informed on the street & beach game to grab up a snack or two
Kinda think its funny that some of you guys sit here & argue over 1 place vs another place.
Screw that.
Show me pics and lets argue who.
Met the sweetest. Freakiest chick with the fattest ass & tits & skills to match.
My loyalty dowsnt lie to a place.
But to myDick and showing it the best women & time it can have.
Just finished six nights and seven days at Black Beards. Wow what a great week. The service was outstanding. The girls and staff provided everything I needed or wanted. The other guys visiting had much more experience than I and were very helpful. You can get some really good tips form the more seasoned guys. Listening can really help. John was on site everyday and the place looked great. Jenny's market was exchanging at 39 to 1.
The girls are very sensual and willing to go the extra mile to get the job done. I enjoyed time with Roni, Amber, Lady, Veronica, Mildred, and Norbelis. IMHO, the best looking girls are not always the best performers. The more popular girls (hottest) are not always the most friendly and willing to work hard. How things never change from ones real life, LOL.
I find BB to be a fun and low pressure environment. I am not really into the hunt and this is why I like and recommend BB to my friends. You do have to watch what you say because if you even hint at spending time with a specific girl, she will demand your commitment. I have no Spanish skills so be careful about your words. It all worked out just some hurt feelings. Buying a few meals or drinks can really payoff later with the girls.
Speaking as someone who is a big fan of BBs (but not an unthinking one, I hope. LOL) , I have to say that its a great place. Especially when you are new to the DR. But it is not perfect, and it might not be for everyone. If you really enjoy the hunt, then BBs is probably not the place for you, because you need NO game there at all! Its more like shooting fish in a barrel. But its pretty laid back. The chicas will approach you, but they are not aggressive (with the occasional exception). You can say no, and they will leave you alone, if that is what you want. They have a wide variety of looks (and sounds like its about to get wider. Double entendre intended. LOL) , and the prices are very reasonable. Plus, the management is attentive and they run a decent hotel, in my opinion. In fact, I will be back there in a week from now. (Hope to see some familiar faces.)
That said, I have never stayed there for more than 5 nights at a time, and I doubt I'd stay longer than a week at a go, even if my busy schedule permitted it. Why? Because I like variety, thats why. And I think I might get bored at any one place, no matter how great it is. So, personally I am glad that other places exist, like Crystals (sp?) and FoD, as well as the hunting grounds of Sosua and other places. (I once spent a long weekend hunting in Santo Domingo that was off the hook. Something for another time). I wish them the best. Having more choices is good for all of us. And no place is going to be perfect for everyone, and for all the time for any one person. Viva la diferencia!

Well said Nedsprofhlp. I am newer to this game and I really like the laid back option. Maybe someday I will perfere the hunt and game. But for now BB is for me and I am glad others like the other options. Because it is nice when you have no game to not have to play the game. LOL
Just got back last night from 10 days at Blackbeards! I had a great time.
There are a lot of good looking girs there in my opinion, and I had more FUN with the girls there than I've had with the girls anywhere. (NIcaragua was a close second, I know it sounds crazy but the girls in Managua were fun) Drinking, talking, laughing, they were just fun. Got BBBJ from ALL the girls, no execption. Big difference form my last trip, which was to Cartagena. I took little boxes of chocolate as gifts, some noticed, some didn't, gave 200 pesos tip to the girls who I thought were just ok in the bedroom and 400 pesos tp the girls I thought were really good. Giving something to all the girls was a good idea in my opinion, as someone else stated, at BB, your rep is EVERTHING, those chicas talk! I ate breakfast at the deli bar on the beach, sometimes had dinner at Sole Mio. I needed to get out of there sometimes, because it does get to be the fishbowl. The girls hear every comment, of course.
I like Costambar. I like the added safety of lots of police, and lots of expats to talk to and get info from. Next trip, in November I plan to get an apt. I'd like to visit there 3 or 4 times a year so I guess its time to build my network of pros, non pros and semi pros.
I hung out in Puerto Plata on three different days. One day I took the taxi tour for 1000 pesos. We hit the brugal factory, seen the rich neighborhood and the barrio, and ended in Cristals at around 4 pm. The girls were off duty. Some were upstairs hanging out in underwear and pajamas, some were eating in the cafeteria, some were dressed and hanging with customers at the bar by the pool. A lot of them looked good even in pjs! One hot girl from SD came over, she was a 9 in my book! But she wouldn't sit in my lap, and I didn't feel I would get my 3700 pesos worth so I passed.
The second time I hooked up with two guys and had beers near long beach, it was cool, but not to many chicas. So we headed over to cristals at 8. Had a beer by the pool, they let us in the club at 9 and Bam! Out come the chicas! These girls were smoking hot! Not too many under a 7. I seen the chica from SD and she looked even better! She reminded me that I passed the day before, turned her back on me and walked away! LOL! So I ended up talking to a equally fine chica from La Romana who sat in my lap and promised to do everything big daddy likes! LMFAO! I decided 3700 pesos was nothing to a playa and off we went. She was awesome in la cama, BBBJ, dfk, I was happy! I got her facebook, but we didn't hook back up. Some bs about only getting 3 hrs out durning th day or something. Maybe we'll hook up in November.
The third time I hook up with a guy who was in BB and we went to Olivias, next to the car wash and had some beers. The girl who was working the bar was hitting on me, but she was about a 5 and I wanted to aim high. It never got busy and he had a date wo he left and I grabbed a moto to the Barco on the malecon. Had some beers and meet another american who lives in PP. Ended up going down to the fort, where some people were out partying, but not a lot. Left there and went to diceseis 16th street. Even though it was a slow night I can see thats the place to hang out. The bar we were in was kinda slow, but there were some chicas in the street that looked interesting. My american friend was saying he wanted to drop me by olivias where I could get a moto back to BB, and since I was getting drunk by then I decided to head back instead of pursuing any freelancers. I got back to BB in time for the last part of the whatever contest and got a hot chica to wrap up the night with.
I made it to Field of Dreams for the dance contest and had a blast! FOD is laid out. A guy a met at BB was there and he showed me the suite he and buddy had! Sweet! Really nice! The place is nice. I'm going to have to say I thought the girls at BB were hotter, but the girls at FOD were just as nice.
All in all, I had a blast at BBs, and I like this side of the Island better than the capital. I meet a lot of expats on the beach in costambar, the were all friendly. Most of the chicas in BB advised me to get an apt in costambar instead of PP. They said that there are a lot of police in costambar for all the gringos, plus they all said that I didn't know PP. So, instead of being my usual stubborn self, I think Ill get an apt in costambar in November for 10 days and just catch a moto to pp when I want to party a little harder!
[QUOTE=Brother P;1302565]Just got back last night from 10 days at Blackbeards! I had a great time.[/QUOTE]Thanks for the great report BrotherP, you are the first gringo I have ever heard mention Diecisιis, I thought I had that place all to myself, hahaha. Go there on a weekend night and there are hundreds of people there having a party like no other, the whole intersection and streets are chock full of people, that is the real DR. Picking up girls there could get tricky for most guys, you need game and near fluent spanish, in addition I would be a little apprehensive that a girl's chulo is nearby and might get pissed, I don't know but maybe I get a little paranoid about shit like that. I have never seen a gringo there ever and I have been there dozens of times. I usually bring a girl there, tell a girl from Puerto Plata that you want to take her to Diecisιis and she will be all over you, the girls love it there.
Be careful of renting an apartment in Costambar, though most of them have inverters you won't have air conditioning in the place while the inverter is running which in Costambar can be 50% of the time. I have rented villas and apartments in Costambar several times but never again, too many power problems. BB's has a huge generator that kicks in automatically when the power goes out and you never notice it.
Many thanks for reporting back, Brother P, and I am glad you had a good time. Sorry we never got to meet, perhaps next time, but you obviously got on fine.
A couple of things caught me out for a few seconds.
Dieciseis is not a bar or club but the name of a street off the Malecon (near La Sirena) called 16 de agosto and containing two colmadons in particular, Charly and El Chalo. Lower / middle-class Dominicans go there but they are not puta bars. A similar place near the gyratory is El Furgon which has a tiny dance-floor and offers a special of five grandes for 300 in an ice-bucket. Cheap way to offer a chica a beer and open a conversation.
By Olivia's you mean Ojilvy's Car wash. Ten years ago the place was rocking but for the past five years dead as a morgue. There was a big health scandal there and the owner and some staff were diagnosed with HIV. For some strange reason the place has never picked up since. I lived five minutes walk away for 18 months but never showed my face in there once. No reason to unless to ask the manager to turn down the sound system which was cracking the plaster in my apartment and I didn't have the balls to do that.
You might want to rethink living in Costambar. Of course the chicas in BB would recommend it, they would have a captive clientele because there is fuck all else to do there. Most people I know who live there want to move elsewhere because of crime and power issues. And I wouldn't place too much reliance on the security staff. They are so thinly spread over a big area, and the perimeter is so porous, that anyone bent on mischief can easily get in and remain invisible in all the greenery.
If you are comfortable travelling between Costambar and Puerto Plata at night along the highway by moto, that's fine, but I would not recommend it to newbies. I probably use more DR motos than anyone on this board but I would draw the line at that except in an emergency.
Well went to PP for only 4 days because this was going to be a one chica trip that I had arraigned ahead of time. Thought I could make it a real cheap trip, yea right big time rookie mistake! Thank god I contacted Charles Pooter ahead of time here about getting into the party. First, let me just say Charles Pooter (CP) is a real nice guy. He went out of his way to introduce me to everyone and I had just meet him even after I had been a little critical here and might I add I was wrong. Nothing else needs to be said, anyone that has ever meet him knows he a great guy.
Showed up at the party security at the door got through by mentioning someone else's name (no need to mention that name) that told me to stop by for the party. As I meet the folks running the party I gave them the name I gave the security guard and I was shocked I was quickly told sorry you have to leave and so on. Couldn't blame them they wanted a true private party but I was a little pissed that I was told to come by from this person but as they were leading me out I mentioned Charles Pooter! Everything stopped! Everybody apologized and they told me Pooter had put me on the list.
From there only fun and relaxation. Everything seemed fair priced. The girls were in a great, fun, mood and for the most part looked good with many of them having cute pleasing attitudes IMO. The mongers there were all very cool. I don't know how much detail I should get into as to what went on there but it was crazy as hell with great energy. No doubt a great party that if another one is thrown if the offer is made here again members should accept. I have already sent Pooter a PM asking for info on any up coming dates in the months ahead so that he may invite me to.
Thanks again Mr. Pooter.

The saga of the guy arrested in Sosua put a minor damper on it as some of our biggest ravers were spending their time trying to help him instead of having fun.
Sorry you had trouble getting in. That was partly my fault. I meant to make sure I got there before you to welcome you but I was horribly fucked about by my girlfriend and her cousin. I told my girlfriend she could either attend as a guest and pay 500 pesos or as part of the entertainment in which case she would have to strip off like the other girls. She refused to do either so I was ready to leave without her. Then her cousin turned up. She is fresh out Haiti and don't know shit but is desperate for money. She was upset at a chance of missing 500 pesos just for stripping off so in the end they both went but I had to wait while they put their best clothes on (a bit pointless as they were taking them off again a few minutes after entering). After one Presidente my girlfriend lost her moral scruples and had a great time. The s lu t! And the starving cousin hooked a gringo for 2000 pesos and thought she had won the lottery.
Incidentally the 500 pesos all went to the chicas (19, 500 pesos in all, but there weren't 39 guys there, and about 25 chicas) to make sure any who didn't hook a client at least got something for stripping off. In the event I think most chicas got lucky, some more than once, so it was win-win all round. We might do it again, but you know how hard it is to repeat a success.

I just booked a flight to POP for 9/6 to 9/10. I'm thinking of staying in POP instead of BB to mix it up. Does anyone have good hotel recommendations? A cab driver showed me the Hotel Lomar, it looked decent, but basic. Its in a great location so it could work.

The longer the journey, the higher the fare. More for two passengers. Fares are paid in Dominican currency. After 6 p.m. the fares are higher.
Motoconcho drivers tend to have home spots where they wait for people to exit hotels, stores, apartment blocks, intersections, or taxis and build a regular clientele.

There is a similar board with prices to different locations at the entrance to New Garden. Not sure if its for a motoconcho ride, or taxi. Almost every time I would walk a chica out at the end of the night, a motoconcho would appear out of nowhere, trying to pick up a ride. It was almost spooky how they would appear, almost magically as we opened the door. Guess they lurk in the dark, waiting for opportunity to knock.
[QUOTE=Brother P;1302969]I just booked a flight to POP for 9/6 to 9/10. I'm thinking of staying in POP instead of BB to mix it up. Does anyone have good hotel recommendations? A cab driver showed me the Hotel Lomar, it looked decent, but basic. Its in a great location so it could work.[/QUOTE]I would describe Lomar as decent but basic. It is just two minutes from my place so you could come round for tea and cucumber sandwiches cut into triangles. Maybe watch English soccer on my crappy old TV.
From Lomar you are a 25 peso motoconcho ride to La Sirena (the supermercado for shopping) , the Metro terminus for buses to Santiago and Santo Domingo. 16 de agosto with the two colmadons described in your previous post, Furgon and neighbouring bars, Cristal (for the very rich such as yourself) , or a few decent restaurants (ditto). It is halfway along the Malecon so you can walk about a mile in either direction with a chance of picking up semi-pros (but watch out for under-age chicas).
It is not quite so convenient for the Parada de Sosua near the Hospital where you can catch cheap transport to Sosua or Costambar, or for the town center and banks, which are a 35 peso ride away.
A bit further still (I pay 40 pesos) are the Caribe Tours terminus for buses all over the island via Santiago, Javilla Tours for the small villages and towns on the way to Santiago, also Damajagua Falls, a few down-market Dominican putabars if you want to go slumming (I enjoy them) , the dance-halls for Latin dancers (Orion, La Canita and El Caballon) , the cable-car, and the charity school my friends and I maintain if you want to visit during term-time and treat the kids to breakfast (20 pesos each) or leave a donation.
The best-value hotel for mongers in Puerto Plata is obviously Field of Dreams (until they get successful and put their prices up in line with Sosua prices). Cheap and quick to get to the airport, Sosua, Cabarete, and Montellano from there, and just as cheap and easy to get to the 35 pesos and 40 pesos places in my paragraph above, but a bit more awkward to get to the 25 pesos group.

Motoconcho drivers tend to have home spots where they wait for people to exit hotels, stores, apartment blocks, intersections, or taxis and build a regular clientele.[/QUOTE]Funny I have been visiting Puerto Plata since 2005 and lived here for almost the past three years, and I have noticed seen any list of motoconcho prices or heard it said that there are stipulated fares. I will look out for it next time I visit La Sirena which is at least once a week. I am friendly with a few motoconchistas who I like to use but I hesitate to discuss it with them or it will give them an excuse to raise their prices.
I have indicated in my previous post the prices I pay. I sure my Haitian girlfriend pays less but the lowest should be 25 pesos even if only a few yards. Every now and then a motoconchista takes me for a tourist and tries it on, but such occasions are rare unlike in Sosua where the motoconchistas are mostly tigueres and scammers.
For sure Frannie is wrong about prices increasing at 6pm. I have never seen any evidence of that, but they do double them around 11pm when most people using them are out for a good time and most honest folk are abed.
Two passengers and the fares double. Once that had sunk in I realised it is better to hire a second moto for your chica. Safer and more comfortable unless you fear you might not get a later chance to press your dick into her buttocks.
Frannie is right about motoconchistas having their own paradas where they loaf about chatting to their mates. Typical Dominican stupidity because it would obviously be more effective to wait at junctions, etc, where they have no competition rather than having three to twelve guys competing for the next fare. Unfortunately the guys at the end of our road are all crappy drivers with crappy bikes so we use a Haitian guy and tell them he is my girlfriend's cousin, which they will accept, otherwise they would give him a hard time for intruding on their patch.

I don't remember seeing the board recently, but wasn't looking for it. It should be on the corner of the sidewalk opposite the ATM machines where the motoconcho passengers board the bikes. It has lots of different destinations listed. Costambar is about the furthest.
2. My better half said 6 pm but she is not a whizz with numbers. I think they want to charge more once it is dark.
Good post.
In the tourist part of Sosua (el batey) , most motoconho fares for one passenger should fall within 25-40 peso range? While driving, I have given motoconcho guys 2 US Dollars (about 76 pesos) to show me where a venue or other place is located (sometimes I might not have pesos or I might not have low denomination currency in pesos). Not sure if guys ever pay using British pound sterling or Euros or Canadian Dollars.
Generally, ten minutes or less on a motoconcho for one passenger and the fare generally should not be more than 50 pesos?

[QUOTE=Charles Pooter; 1302678]Thanks for your kind remarks and I am glad you enjoyed the party. The saga of the guy arrested in Sosua put a minor damper on it as some of our biggest ravers were spending their time trying to help him instead of having fun.
Sorry you had trouble getting in. That was partly my fault. I meant to make sure I got there before you to welcome you but I was horribly fucked about by my girlfriend and her cousin. I told my girlfriend she could either attend as a guest and pay 500 pesos or as part of the entertainment in which case she would have to strip off like the other girls. She refused to do either so I was ready to leave without her. Then her cousin turned up. She is fresh out Haiti and don't know shit but is desperate for money. She was upset at a chance of missing 500 pesos just for stripping off so in the end they both went but I had to wait while they put their best clothes on (a bit pointless as they were taking them off again a few minutes after entering). After one Presidente my girlfriend lost her moral scruples and had a great time. The s lu t! And the starving cousin hooked a gringo for 2000 pesos and thought she had won the lottery.
Incidentally the 500 pesos all went to the chicas (19, 500 pesos in all, but there weren't 39 guys there, and about 25 chicas) to make sure any who didn't hook a client at least got something for stripping off. In the event I think most chicas got lucky, some more than once, so it was win-win all round. We might do it again, but you know how hard it is to repeat a success.[/QUOTE]Wow what a party! I love the picts can you please I said please pm me the next time you having a party like this again thats tge way I love 2 party.

[QUOTE=Frannie;1303336]The board with the prices was there today at La Sirena. The cheapest listed fare is 30 pesos and the most expensive listed is 80 pesos to Costambar or Maimon.[/QUOTE]Thanks Frannie. Obviously I am not very observant, but I have known that for 60 years.
I usually give at least 30 (I considered the extra 5 a voluntary gringo tax) but I know for sure all locals pay 25 for short / medium rides.
80 to Maimon seems very reasonable. It's a long way. Too long a way along the main road for me!
Is there anything suggesting this price-list has any authority (city or transport union) or is it just something the motoconchistas who work La Sirena have got produced?
The very rich such as myself? LMFAO! I'm just a poor boy from the mid west trying to enjoy life and see a bit of the world! That comment reminds me of a conversation I had with a chica in a taxi as we returned to BB from la sirena. I was inquiring about some apts in costambar that looked nice. I asked if they were expensive, and she replied, you a gringo you rich. I tryed to explain to her that I'm a working man. In my broken spanish I used hombre trabajando. She thought that was funny and repeated. You rich. Trying to explain the american concept of middle class seem completely pointless.
FOD is nice but a little out of the way. I like that at BB I can walk to the beach and eat and drink, or go the other way to sole mio, or atlantico one. On this trip I'm going to try Lomar and hope it works out well. I like PP and want to start to develop a network. I'd be interested in seeing the school you and your friends support, of course, some drink and party money can be diverted to a donation.

Hello,
Any suggestion on a good way to learn Bachata (and / or Regeatton) for a newbie in Pto Pta?
Classes next week, or a private tutor somebody could recommend?
(I was hoping to learn as you go at the dance halls there, but I don't seem to pick it up as quickly as I would have though. Getting harder to learn new tricks as you get older I guess.)

[QUOTE=Kc Talent; 1300558]I think you should go. You will be please with the selection so many pretty girls of all size.

I too like those thick big tit, big curvy ass girls and always find what I 'm looking for at Blackbeard's, on every trip. So Just Do It.
What I don't have is that same opinion of BB's as Mr. Pooter nor do I have all the history and knowledge he has in regards to FOD. I have been making trips to the Dominican Republic for the last six years every 3-4 months for at least 2 weeks per trip and very few are for vacation. On most of these trips I make it a point to stay at BB's my last few days before returning back to the USA and I'm not a newbie. I have bang out a good share of semi pro's mostly in Santiago and Santa Domingo which is where I chose to hunt semi pro's and I use a villa or apartment not a hotel. What I have not found is anything better then BB's on the island.
I have always said in pass post on this board that I end my trip with a stay at BB's to relax and enjoy 1 or 2 ST sexy pretty chicas, each nigth, great food at a good price and good helpful infor from fellow mongers and most importantly a good no nosie night of sleep. No hunting for azz, no negotiations to be had, no drunks, no street hustlers in your face which all goes along with the hunt does get old after a week or so. I feel Mr. Pooter has the girls at BB's mixed up with real professional putas like those in Boca Chica. What I found was girls at BB's some new on every trip was sweet, tight and tender but took care of business better than the high price Passion sweet things or even semi pro's at times. In addition, as a man I can never be bored around so much pus / and I have a car which stays park unless some fellow mongers want to get together and go to Puerto Plata, lust to the main road or even to Sosua.
I will again be in the DR on July 8th for a short trip and on my last few days I will stop in at FOD to say hello to an old friend, Jose, right before I head to Blackbeard's where I will stay and play on campus and have a lot of pure good and bad fun.[/QUOTE]Thank you for the great advice.
I'm really a novice when it comes to this so it's probably best I stick with BB.
I'm looks to spend maybe 5 days there
Hi guys.
I've got a tons of questions so bear with me.
What's the avg for cost of GFE overnight at BB?
What's the age range of the girls there?
Any rookie mistakes I should avoid?
Any pro tips in dealing with the women?
Any good hang out spots around BB?

Any good hang out spots around BB?[/QUOTE]Mind Bender a little research and most of these questions would be answered but since nobody else has responded so I guess I will. The prices at BB's are set. Just ask the front desk what they are and the girls are not suppose to ask for tips. The last time I was there ST was 1800 and TN was I think 3000. During the day there are some spots on the beach to hang out at like Pascal's and Tim the manager has pointed me to place and offered me his snorkling equipment, just ask him! But there will be little to no action just relaxation. There are some bars right up the street outside Costambar. Go outside the gate to the end of the road and take a right. These are DR bars which are a nice break and you can go and try to find a woman with cabanas right there or you can take a BB girl. Remember even though a girl in one of these bars maybe pay for play for you they probably will not go back to BB's. Of course the cab fare will be absurd by even DR standards the Costombar bastards will want between 500 and 800 one way for a 3 minute ride!
Don't worry about rookie mistakes, grave mistakes really can't be made at BB's. Its kinda of the beauty of the place. Try to limit cab use; the 45 dollars they charge from the airport is fair its the rest of their fares and rules that are not! The girls will perform as expected and if you forget to put something in your safe you will even be ok. Martha, Tim, and Cliff are awesome and the staff is fun to be around. My only suggestion is don't get excited about a particular girl and offer TN to early. Have fun its a great place with some good girls.
Doker44.

any pro tips in dealing with the women?
any good hang out spots around bb?[/quote]doker's advice is right on. my last stay was early may, scroll down a few pages to view my pics from bb's, you'll find them. further advice:
1) don't allow the airport taxi driver to take a detour anywhere to exchange money on your way to bb's. tell him firmly that you just want to go str8 to bb's. at the front security gate as you enter costambar, there is a small market named "yenny's" on the right. stop there and exchange at least $500-800 usd into pesos in their back room. it's safe, legal, and you get about the best exchange rate available on the north coast. pick up any toiletries there that tsa confirep001ed if needed. bb's is 2 minutes away. the driver will wait for you. tip him $5-10 bucks at bb's. don't pay him for the ride, its added to your bill that you pay at check in. if there is 2 of or more of you in the cab the taxi fare is split amongst the passangers. check that when you arrive.
2) try not to put all your food / bar bills on your room. they can and do make billing mistakes sometimes and you won't be able to really contest it at checkout. try to pay as you go for everything. 10% tip is already added to your bar / meals so just leave a few clinkers on the table for good service.
3) short time was 1, 600 pesos and all night was 3, 000. only tip if the service was outstanding, like maybe 200 pesos. 1000 pesos=$27. 00 give or take. 100 pesos=$2. 70.
4) day manager "tim" recommended a place called "catamaran" on the beach, walk almost to the end. decent food there if you want a change of pace.
5) age range is 18-40 with most in the early to mid 20's. yes, i once banged out a 40 why / o at bb's for all you haters out there. lol.
6) if you can actually pull yourself away from bb's take a taxi to the ski lift tram to the top of that tall mountain you can see from staircase leading up to some of the rooms. go during good weather of course. they have some other affordable guided trip options with approved outside vendors but most of these will take all day and some require you to get up early, all hung over and shit, to meet the taxi. your call.
7) relax, you'll be pleasantly surprised how laid back the place is. if you are there during the bikini contest, try not to miss it. smash it out guy!
The FOD is having a bikini contest today at around 4:00 in the afternoon (like every second Wednesday in the past). The BBQ opens at 1:30 and the girls will be ready and in their bikinis by the mid-afternoon. Check out the web site for more details.

Rumor has it that Jose Hernandez, former manager at BB's and current "manager" or whatever his title was at FOD quit today to go to work on a cruise ship.
[QUOTE=Manizales911;1305967]Rumor has it that Jose Hernandez, former manager at BB's and current "manager" or whatever his title was at FOD quit today to go to work on a cruise ship.[/QUOTE]They might have given him the title "manager" to humor him, but he wasn't really. He was the "papasan" and no doubt also the contact with any Dominican suppliers or sub-contractors. The partners were hands-on "managers" themselves and you have to be if you are a gringo running a business in this country.
Most people will feel this is a step in the right direction, but I guess that depends on who replaces him. If staff are not wanted at Blackbeards that should be an immediate red flag for the owners of FoD whether putas or other staff.
Has anyone stayed at the Puerto Plata Beach Resort? I'm looking for a hotel in town for my Sept trip! Thanks!
[QUOTE=Brother P;1306168]Has anyone stayed at the Puerto Plata Beach Resort? I'm looking for a hotel in town for my Sept trip! Thanks![/QUOTE]A contact of mine stayed there recently because it was cheap (some special deals going) and nice location on the Malecon. It is basically for Dominicans and suffers from maintenance and utilities problems every now and then (sewage, electricity, etc). He was lucky during his stay and said it was good value.
Check out of my hotel in Santo Domingo around 6AM to drive Janna home (2nd & 5thPhoto) but we had a bite to eat first at the 24 hour restaurant behind the Jaraque Hotel. After getting lost I found JFK Ave. And I knew my way from there and was now on my way to Puerto Plata. The drive was not bad, looked up after a good hour or more and was already in Santiago, just passed the exit road for the airport (STI). Least than two hours later I was turning off the main road on to the road to Black Beards.
Checked in and said my hola's to staff and chica's and to the room I went. Had a D-room which I requested nice, private and off the main beat. Hit the Shower and took a little nap. Wake up about 9PM had dinner with a old fuck friend but she was not in my plans for this trip but was calling some of the new talent over for me to meet which was helpful to me for her to do. I told 2-3 that I was interested in that I would like to buy them a drink later or the next day. Then I change my mind on this one little cutie with a little soft voice name Lady and ask her to have a sit so I could buy her a drink. She agrees and 15min. Later we are in the room.
Lady has that nice round ass and a very pretty face with nice size boobs. I remember stating on this forum about nice and tight girls at BB's, this is one of them and I would repeat again. She does nothing but try to please. I forgot some of the names of 5-6 others that I banged out but Marry is also great and tight.
That same night around 12AM I drove Lady and her friend to the main road and then went down to check out the malecon and found a few SW's but nothing got my attention. Headed from the malecon back to the main road I stop in at a club close to the 2 large smoke stacks for a beer went in and damn, nice pretty ass chica's dancing and having a ball. I invited one chica I notice not with anyone to have a beer and 15 min later I was headed back to BB's with her and her friend 1000RD each until day light. 2nd photo no faces 1st photo is Haitian girl give real good service 1200RD. All in all not a bad visit but next time I think I will just stay on campus and play because I love the talent at BB's 4th photo and the service and because I'm there to RELAX.
I did stop by FOD on Monday to say hi to Jose. He said he would give me a call when the ship he will be working on make a stop in the USA

You may be able to get an apartment overlooking the ocean. However, you will need to get meals off-site. Sometimes pipes break and the water is out for a few hours.

However the mamasan remains at FOD (Maria I believe. Also does massages) but her "assistant" Jose did quit. Any establishment like those cannot have the girls work for them, they must be independant. However, someone has to "manage" them as well.

Guys, tidy up your quotes please. This is the Puerto Plata thread not the Sosua one. We have higher standards here.
Brother P, you rarely get a competitive price by enquiring on line from abroad to the DR. Always best to turn up with cash in hand and negotiate a deal. The usual risk is that you could find yourself with nowhere to stay but no chance of that happening in Puerto Plata these days. The tourist trade is dead here. I am sure you could get a great deal at Puerto Plata Beach Resort as they are two-thirds empty.
If you stay 5 nights (or multiples of 5 nights) at Field of Dreams it will cost you US$36 per night. Easy to get into Puerto Plata on the cheap from there.
I don't think Field of Dreams would quote you cheaper than US$36 (except perhaps for an extended stay) but you might find them flexible on the 5-night rule if you are standing there with cash in your hand.
The only point of being in Costambar is if you intend to patronize the girls at Blackbeards which you say you do not intend to do. If you stay at Field of Dreams you have freedom to use their girls or bring your own in, eat at their restaurant or eat out at any one of a dozen nearby places ranging from very cheap to expensive, and can easily and cheaply get to Puerto Plata, Sosua or Cabarete in one ride without changing.
You will also have gringo support and monger company if you want it or go it alone if you don't, plus greater security than at Atlantic One.
Yes, you could walk to the gate or to the main road from Atlantic One to catch a publico, but that is no fun if it is raining or very hot. You could be soaked in sweat or rain before your outing has begun. And what about coming home late in the pitch black? Even if you are brave enough the chicas would not be impressed with that.
However if you like cooking you own food then Field of Dreams is not for you. You need an apartment.
[QUOTE=Charles Pooter;1306677]If you stay 5 nights (or multiples of 5 nights) at Field of Dreams it will cost you US$36 per night.[/QUOTE]I have just noticed that Field of Dreams add the 16% ITBIS tax to these prices. You need to check that wherever you enquire so you are comparing apples with apples.

Had a beer and checked out about 10 of the ladies lounging around the pool. I had an itinerary to meet and regret not staying to do my thing with a couple of fine looking chicas. Great selection for early in the day. FOD here I come in August.
Is there a web site for Field of Dreams?

[QUOTE=Il Duca;1306921]Is there a web site for Field of Dreams?[/QUOTE]If you google it is at the top of the list
I just returned from 10 days in the DR. 4 days at FOD and 6 at BB's. I was very impressed with FOD from top to bottom (no pun intended). BB's was as it always is very consistent. Both places were fun and I enjoyed myself way to much if that is possible. I will post a more detailed account of my trip in a day or so. It was my first ever stay at FOD and I could have stayed there for my entire 10 trip and would have been VERY VERY happy. There were on average 10 to 26 girls at any one time and no less than 10 from 10:00 am on until very late. More to follow.
[QUOTE=Charles Pooter;1308058]A couple of my friends who are vets from Blackbeards and Sosua are staying there now. I am meeting them for lunch so I will ask their opinions.[/QUOTE]They liked it. Only complaint was that the restaurant food, while similar quality and price to Blackbeards, was smaller servings. Now I don't eat much myself but I had also noticed that.
They said the standard rooms were same style and quality as Blackbeards but significantly cheaper. With the new influx of chicas the average standard was the same as Blackbeards but not so many to choose from.
Very happy with service and attentiveness of management.
Those were their comments. As posted previously, I don't think rivalling Blackbeards is the way to go for FoD but my friends seemed happy enough with their attempt to do so. They are sociable types, not ones to go hunting for non-pros and semi-pros on their own.
After a most enjoyable stay at both places I saw it is a coin toss as to which is better. Either location will provide you with a very nice vacation spot for as long as you desire.
Here is my breakdown of the two places: (as always your experience my differ)
Girls:
1. Cost for ST vs. LT are about the same.
2. Both require regular medical tests for all of the girls.
3. Quality (looks and performance) is equal with a slight edge to BB's for total #'s of girls.
4. FOD does have 6 girls on site from 11:00 pm to 8:00 am for those times when you just need some late night loving.
5. Both have a mamison but the big difference here is that at FOD the girls do not pay the mamison the hotel does.
6. BB's has the girls assigned to specific shifts and are required to participate in mandatory events and FOD does not. I never saw less than 10 girls on site at anytime.
7. BB's girls can be a little pushier than the FOD girls. IMHO.
8. FOD really emphasizes to the girls that they are a very important part of the success or failure for the Hotel. The management lets the girls know that they need them as much as the girls need the management. I was impressed that FOD does feed them as I have seen this. I was also impressed with how happy the girls were. There are two computers that they could use when guests were not using them.
Food:
1. Quality and cost were similar but the diversity of the menu and portion size give a slight edge to BB's.
2. At FOD the bill was always returned to me at the completion of the meal for my signature and I was able to check the totals. It did not matter if was paying in cash or charging it to my room just as one would expect when staying at any hotel.
3. Service was good at both places.
Bar:
1. Cost for drinks was similar as was the quality.
2. Service was very good at both places.
Facilities:
1. Both places are kept up very well. Pools in both places are very nice.
2. Jacuzzi at BB's. Is amazing. FOD's jacuzzi is smaller but is nice and private.
3. BB's is larger over all in both number of guest rooms rooms and in square feet of common space. The up stairs disco is very nice.
Rooms:
1. BB's has more guest rooms period. However, FOD rooms are slightly less expensive and of similar quality and cleanliness.
2. FOD has a large advantage in the TV department. Each room has a large flat screen TV and DirectTV everywhere. There are two / three large flat screen TV's in the bar area. 95% of the stations are broadcast in english and there are many movie channels not to mention adult action! I can only imagine what a it would be like to watch the Baseball playoffs and football games there not to mention the Bowl Games or the Super Bowl.
3. Jacuzzi Room at FOD is amazing. The jacuzzi is seperate from the shower.
4. At FOD the hot water is endless and the water pressure makes taking a shower with a friend a most enjoyable experience.
5. FOD offers some nice discounts and offers up graded rooms at a discounted rate. I stayed in three different rooms and found them all to be very good.
Location: BB's.
1. BB's is in a residential area which limits (for some) how crazy things can get in the common areas.
2. The beach is a short walk as are restaurants, a small store and a pharmacy.
3. Parking a rental car is on the street but there is a night security guard and I have never had a problem.
4. It is a more expensive taxi ride to and from the airport because it is father away and the Costambar Taxi Mafia! They are safe and reliable but not cheap.
5. The road to Costambar is nice with little or no potholes.
Location: FOD.
1. Closer to the Airport, Sosua, Casino and Disco.
2. Puerto Plata is at your finger tips as is a Banco Popular.
3. Secure parking and a night security guard.
4. Located in a very private area allows for loud music, clothing can and does come off at anytime and this place is a prefect for large or small groups.
Management:
1. Both places are run very well. BB's is a little more formal while FOD is a little more laid back. I experienced excellent treatment at both places. I had more contact with the FOD management and found them to be a lot of fun and full of enthusiasm.
2. Each place has a different philosophy. IMHO from talking to the FOD owners they are not trying to compete with BB's but establish their own identity.
Summation:
Both places are great with many positive similarities. I honestly do not think you can have a bad time at either location. There are some differences but I recommend you experience both and decide for yourself. After all variety is the spice of life.
I asked many questions before my visit to O2, in past few months. So I thought, it would be nice to post a report.
I was in O2 just couple of week back. And this is my first ever trip of this kind.
Why I chose O2; I got many advise from veterans to chose BB or other over O2 as it is expensive.
I relay thought about that. But this is my first trip ever and it may be the last trip.
I am otherwise committed man and don't have chance to sneak around. So if this is once in a life time choose what will you do.
So I thought let me spend more money and get those cute girls.
I arrived at DR. POP as planned on a Saturday afternoon. And guess what? They missed my check-in luggage.
So I had to struggle for nearly an hour with the airlines / airport officials. Luckily the driver who came to pick me up send some one inside, who helped me in sorting out.
So I leave the, with promise, I will get my luggage next day (and they sent it next day).
The drive was good and driver helped me to pick few thing, that I needed.
Reached O2, payed the remaining amount (50% was paid upfront) got all the coupons (girls-2 Hrs and overnight, tipping coupons)
As I was taken to my room, crossed the Tiki bar where all girls assemble and God they where Gorgeous.
Refreshed and came to bar. Had some chit chat with few words of Spanish I know.
There where 10 girls for 3 guys, at that time.
The girls ages ranged from 20 to 28, and most are slim, without any extra luggage.
They come in all color and shades from golden yellow to black. They are all local DR girls.
They have very nice attitude and take every effort to please you.
Guest just goes to the bar (open bar from 11 am to 11 pm) and can pick any girls they like.
The girls all assemble at the bar 11 am in the morning, and they take small break around 2, to refresh, change their costumes and assemble back at 4. 00.
The music blasts in bar whole day and bartender are in 2 shifts. You are free to drink anything you want (though I just had couple of beers, the whole trip)

There are 6 girls there 24 hours a day. They sleep there in their own area in case they are called upon. I can tell you there was one night that a couple of guys showed up at 3:00 am or so and rented a couple of girls and rooms short time. I know this as my date forgot to lock our door and the guys and girls entered my room and turned on the light by mistake. All most had a heart attack! If the guests arrive late at night the security guard wakes up the manager and he gets them a rents them a room and wakes up the girls. This is a real plus in my book.
Is there a beach near by FOD that you can use? I know it's right by the playa dorada complex, but not sure if the beach is for the hotel guests of playa dorada only?
[QUOTE=Bimmy5;1309194]You forgot the most important thing. How Much?[/QUOTE]Put it this way, the daily rate for O2 is what most members here spend in a week!

Obviously behave responsibly, don't get drunk and no overt sex. The way business is now they are glad of anyone to buy the odd drink at their expensive bars.
Immediately adjacent the the right (east) of the Playa Dorada beach is a beautiful, usually empty, unspoilt beach with clean sand and water. No cafes or toilets though. You can walk as far as Playa Bergantin.
To the left (west) of Playa Dorada is a public beach (sorry the name escapes me) which is empty midweek but you can get drinks and food at DR prices.

I have not heard that is still in force but I will ask the new management. Seemed like win-win all round.
I live very near the Malecon and rarely see any gringos on the beach. There are sewage outlets from the city. They claim there is no pollution but I wouldn't trust it.

Also when there is heavy rain the storm drains from the city empty into the malecon beaches and that stuff looks pretty yucky.
The beaches are nice enough, but I would not swim there. OK for walking, jogging etc, though most locals jog on the Malecon and enjoy the ocean views and the breeze.

[QUOTE=Frannie;1309910]Don't take it too personally.[/QUOTE]The beach for the casa marina reef (down a flight of wooden stairs) did not have any lifeguards when I swam there many years ago (as Buscemi posted). The beach was closed to swimming several times because of big waves, when I was there. Very easy to get churned around, like you are inside a washing machine, by some of the waves at that beach. North coast of the Dom Rep (Sosua) faces the Atlantic Ocean.
Buscemi offers good advice, be very careful at that beach.
[QUOTE=OldKool;1309244]What is the rate for the jacuzzi blow job at FOD and is it an option. Does FOD have a 3 some option.[/QUOTE]I had two great threesomes when I was there. One TLN and one ST. Both were amazing. Its all about the connections the girls have with each other. As far as the Jacuzzi is concerned I am not aware of the cost structure for BJ's in the Jacuzzi. I always went with my "date". The Jacuzzi Room cost at $75. 00 is worth the money because there is lots of hot water. It is the perfect size for two people (could do three) and there is a separate shower which is a big plus. I spent an incredible night there using the Jacuzzi in the privacy of my own room.
Good comparison, Travel04. I spent a night at FOD on Friday two weeks ago, and I was the only residing client. Somewhat embarrassing.
I agree the lineup is solid. Good mix of pretty young one with more extroverted older chicas. No stunner though. More importantly, they seem to get along well. Even without customers, they manage to create some party mood. Some girls live together in the back room, FKK style, so they really work as a team. They have been well instructed, I. E they resisted aggregating all around me in spite of me being the only available wallet.
The owners seem very hands-on, and I saw them have fun with the girls frequently. Probably a factor in the girl's and staff's cheerfulness, in spite of the lack of customers. Service was flawless, facilities are great.
I stayed for their "wet T-shirt" event on Saturday afternoon. The event never got started, though, as only a couple of guys showed up. Yet, I thoroughly enjoyed watching the girls splashing in the pool, play billard and chat around. Had the worst hamburger ever though.
Came back for drinks on Tuesday evening. I had promised a session to a slender, tall 21 why old "negrita" if she defeated me at billard. She easily did. Girls play lot's of billard at FOD. The girl had left home on Tuesday, so ended up offering a few beers around. No other client once again, and all the girls and owners were at the bar, but not in a suffocating way. Enjoyed my time there again.
Bottom line: I feel FOD is doing everything right. If that team cannot pull it through, then it will be because there is not enough demand in Puerto Plata for another monger hotel.
[QUOTE=Traveler04; 1308916]After a most enjoyable stay at both places I saw it is a coin toss as to which is better. Either location will provide you with a very nice vacation spot for as long as you desire.
Here is my breakdown of the two places: (as always your experience my differ)
Girls:
1. Cost for ST vs. LT are about the same.
2. Both require regular medical tests for all of the girls.
3. Quality (looks and performance) is equal with a slight edge to BB's for total #'s of girls.
4. FOD does have 6 girls on site from 11:00 pm to 8:00 am for those times when you just need some late night loving.
5. Both have a mamison but the big difference here is that at FOD the girls do not pay the mamison the hotel does.
6. BB's has the girls assigned to specific shifts and are required to participate in mandatory events and FOD does not. I never saw less than 10 girls on site at anytime.
7. BB's girls can be a little pushier than the FOD girls. IMHO.
8. FOD really emphasizes to the girls that they are a very important part of the success or failure for the Hotel. The management lets the girls know that they need them as much as the girls need the management. I was impressed that FOD does feed them as I have seen this. I was also impressed with how happy the girls were. There are two computers that they could use when guests were not using them.
Food:
1. Quality and cost were similar but the diversity of the menu and portion size give a slight edge to BB's.
2. At FOD the bill was always returned to me at the completion of the meal for my signature and I was able to check the totals. It did not matter if was paying in cash or charging it to my room just as one would expect when staying at any hotel.
3. Service was good at both places.
Bar:
1. Cost for drinks was similar as was the quality.
2. Service was very good at both places.
Facilities:
1. Both places are kept up very well. Pools in both places are very nice.
2. Jacuzzi at BB's. Is amazing. FOD's jacuzzi is smaller but is nice and private.
3. BB's is larger over all in both number of guest rooms rooms and in square feet of common space. The up stairs disco is very nice.
Rooms:
1. BB's has more guest rooms period. However, FOD rooms are slightly less expensive and of similar quality and cleanliness.
2. FOD has a large advantage in the TV department. Each room has a large flat screen TV and DirectTV everywhere. There are two / three large flat screen TV's in the bar area. 95% of the stations are broadcast in english and there are many movie channels not to mention adult action! I can only imagine what a it would be like to watch the Baseball playoffs and football games there not to mention the Bowl Games or the Super Bowl.
3. Jacuzzi Room at FOD is amazing. The jacuzzi is seperate from the shower.
4. At FOD the hot water is endless and the water pressure makes taking a shower with a friend a most enjoyable experience.
5. FOD offers some nice discounts and offers up graded rooms at a discounted rate. I stayed in three different rooms and found them all to be very good.
Location: BB's.
1. BB's is in a residential area which limits (for some) how crazy things can get in the common areas.
2. The beach is a short walk as are restaurants, a small store and a pharmacy.
3. Parking a rental car is on the street but there is a night security guard and I have never had a problem.
4. It is a more expensive taxi ride to and from the airport because it is father away and the Costambar Taxi Mafia! They are safe and reliable but not cheap.
5. The road to Costambar is nice with little or no potholes.
Location: FOD.
1. Closer to the Airport, Sosua, Casino and Disco.
2. Puerto Plata is at your finger tips as is a Banco Popular.
3. Secure parking and a night security guard.
4. Located in a very private area allows for loud music, clothing can and does come off at anytime and this place is a prefect for large or small groups.
Management:
1. Both places are run very well. BB's is a little more formal while FOD is a little more laid back. I experienced excellent treatment at both places. I had more contact with the FOD management and found them to be a lot of fun and full of enthusiasm.
2. Each place has a different philosophy. IMHO from talking to the FOD owners they are not trying to compete with BB's but establish their own identity.
Summation:
Both places are great with many positive similarities. I honestly do not think you can have a bad time at either location. There are some differences but I recommend you experience both and decide for yourself. After all variety is the spice of life.[/QUOTE]

Anyone used Spanish Sex phrasebook mentioned in BB Newsletter in June?
Is this useful?
The new waitress at BB's Denise is great! She is the only waitress in the 8 years I have been going there that has ever checked back with me to see if I needed anything or if everything was ok. She was fast and got the orders correct the first time. She speaks English very well which helps and she is always smiling. I heard nothing but praise for her from the other guests and girls.
Sex Phrase Book: why bother? If you have a smart phone or ipad just use Google Translate. I have an iphone 4s and with BB's wifi I never needed any help talking to the girls. I fact it was fun to have them speak into the phone and then see the translation. If the girls spoke clearly and slowly the translation was very very close. I found that wifi was very consistent and had a strong signal. I never needed to use the computer. Next time I will bring my ipad.
I also had the same great wifi signal at FOD in fact it was a little better in the rooms which was a nice plus.

Going to the DR again in a couple weeks, going to spend a few days at BB and a few days in Sosua at Rockys, need to get some vitamin V. Where can I get it in Sosua and what are the prices.
From what I understand I can get it at BB itself and at Jenneys, I have also heard there is a pharmacy across from Jennys. On my first trip I brought my own so didn't look for or worry about any pharmacies. I've heard the V that BB sales are questionable in quality. Does anyone have any further information on this or know what the prices are at the above mentioned places.
Thanks.

I have purchased vitamin V and C at BB's and it was the same stuff I got at the pharmacy across from Jenny's. It is a few pesos more but nice not to go out and get some when I ran out. LaPella is what I get at the pharmacy and it works well for me.
BB's email: Four weeks ago before my last trip I requested information about the girls and had a couple of questions. Tim always got back to me and sent a few pictures. I would try them again.

Chris[/QUOTE]On the way from the airport to Costambar, just after you pass the Coca Cola factory on your left and opposite the Brugal rum warehouse is Cristal pharmacy. You can have your taxi stop there and pick up some generic viagra for 50 pesos per 100 mgs tablet.
You can also get it at La Sirena where they have a wonderful counter display that has four columns of rubber of different softness / hardness representing penises that you can finger to assess your need for medical help.
In Sosua the cheapest place is Latino's Mini Market where you can get a box of 96 for 1000 pesos, or if you want smaller quantities I think it is 50 pesos for 2 tablets.

What are non pro Dominican women like? Aggressive? Passive? Any tips on approaching them?

You asked about non-pros'. It can be very difficult to tell these days. Better to assume that she may not be a hard core pro.
There is a Beach 4 min. Walk from BB's. Weekends the Beach is crawling with locals and that means a lot of families. I have known a few guys that scored at the beach. You will need the following:
1. Spanish.
2. Time.
3. Some game.
Remember that if you want to take the girl back to BB's she will need an original Cedula (Dominican I'd) or she will not be admitted to the hotel.
[QUOTE=Traveler04;1311932]There is a Beach 4 min. Walk from BB's. Weekends the Beach is crawling with locals and that means a lot of families.[/QUOTE]Non-pros will not go with you in front of family, friends or neighbours. Any women who will do that are semi-pros at least.
If non-pros are your main focus, or even semi-pros from Facebook and dating sites, don't stay at Blackbeards. Field of Dreams is far better for that purpose. The hotel is more suitable and there is a vastly greater selection of women in Puerto Plata than in Costambar. Plus it's a bit cheaper and you have easier access to other towns like Sosua and Cabarete.
Of course, if you going to Blackbeards mainly for the in-house girls and just want to try your luck one afternoon for a change, then that is a different matter as Blackbeards has a much bigger selection of putas than Field of Dreams although the latter is coming on by leaps and bounds.
I was at FoD yesterday between 11. 00am and noon when most places are usually dead. I counted 14 mongers in that time of which 8 were staying there, and of course, once the guys appeared the chicas started appearing too. I spoke to two formerly loyal Blackbeards clients for many, many years who said they now preferred Field of Dreams.
I think Blackbeards is still better at what it is good at, but Field of Dreams is better for the minority of mongers looking for non-pros and semi-pros.

You can meet non-pros in Costambar, at least I have. During my first visit a few years ago, I stayed in an apartment. You do not want to tell a non-pro that you are staying at BBs. They know your game if you do. While at the beach during Constitution Day-I did not know it was a holiday initially-I crashed a church picnic. I just went to the bar area and asked for food. I got some weird looks. A cute pregnant girl of 20 or so told me it was a church picnic, then got me a plate. Then a religious sister, in the habit, came over and the pregnant girl introduced me. Now, keep in mind they only speak Spanish, so Spanish is a must for regular girls. Well, feeling somewhat embarrassed for crashing a church picnic and asking for food, I made a donation to the cause. I won a friend or two. As I ordered drinks from time to time, I simply paid for them.
The pregnant girl asked if I was staying at BBs. I acted as though I never heard of it, and asked her where it was. She said never mind. After finding out the her boyfriend left her, imagine that, and that she was living with her aunt and uncle, I asked her out. She said she was pregnant. I told her it was not an issue. She was only two months or so. Since she came on the church bus, she had no way of getting home. I told her that I would give her the 100 pesos for the moto. Well, in short, she was good to go.
To preserve her reputation, I told her aunt and uncle that I wanted to practice my Spanish, and wanted her to stay at the beach a little longer. They had no objection. Told them I will send her home by taxi before dark. Again, no problem. After the church bus left, we only had a short walk to my apartment. She was very sweet and appreciative.
A regular girl will not approach a tourist. Remember that I crashed their event, so she had a reason to talk to me. During the picnic, she was acting as the host for the lost visitor. Spanish was an absolute must, as she and her family spoke no English.
BB is a great place for rookie. It is point and play. You are living in a working girl house. After 2 days this gets very old for me. Sosua is 20 minutes away and the whole town is a brothel with illusion of being a regular town. It has 100s of women bars, brothels and a beach. I love the place. Do BB for a few days then when you feel like a big boy go to Sosua. Take some time and do a little research on the locations. Also get some spanish under your belt. Communication with the girls can make the sex better. Bottom line you can not go wrong.

Good story, professor. (Would have been better still if you had fucked the nun). But guys down here on a short vacation might be reluctant to spend their precious time chasing a longshot like that. And the point is you had an apartment. Our friend is staying at Blackbeards. As you rightly said, that makes a difficult task damned near impossible.

Thanks Traveler04, OldKool, Professor 1, Charles Pooter!
I plan on staying at BB a week so I'm mostly concerned about boredom.
Also can you score some "mary jane" at BB?
I have never been bored at BB's or FOD. As far as other "recreational" activities at BB's is concerned "watch out" as they will throw you out at any time. I saw this happen to a couple of guys at 2 am. Some funny smells were coming out from under the door and in no time these guys were escorted off the property never to return again. Just a heads up!
I got bored after 2 days and for sure 3. It is point and play no challenge what so ever. Many times you are looking at sloppy seconds. It is no thrill thinking the sloppy fat guy just had the chica you had your eye on. In Sosua you fool your self into believing you hunted down your conquest. The girls are often bored at BB and are going through the motions. Some of the chica in Sosua were so happy to pull a trick they seem to appreciate and give good sessions. Cultivating that feeling is where your game kicks in. Since Sosua is a bigger play ground way more to do. As for the weed. I blew my smoke out the back window. I was able to get some in Sosua. The moto cocho guys will get it for you. I prefer to let the girls cope for me. When you find a chica who smokes in the DR she is going to be more hard core. DR girls are not big into weed. Haitian girls smoke way more and could be a good source. Hairian girls are great in the sack. Do yourself a favor and try a few.

As I reported before I went back and forth between BB's and FOD's on my last trip. Oldkool I agree BB's girls can be and were a little mechanical and it can get a little old at times. I only went with girls that I had been with before so I had no complaints. FOD's girls were less hardcore / cut throat but that is just my view. I had some great GFE at FOD's and things were not rushed no clock watching and cell phones were never an issue. In fact I can not remember one going off.
BB's is very comfortable and I always enjoy my time there. It is consistent and I know what to expect when I am there. It is first class. FOD's was an unknown for me this time around and I had many memorable experiences. I enjoyed the close proximity to Sosua, Airport and downtown Puerto Plata.
I am here in sex prison USA. BB would be a dream come true right now. I think some guys need the captive audience which BB provides. I enjoy GFE. Hard to get at BB because as soon as she walks out your room another guy will grab her while you are looking. Right now I still like running them down. Just a little more adventure. Some Sosua SW are less hardcore then BB or FOD girls. The trick is to find them. You have to be able to interact. If you speak no spanish this is not posible and FOD and BB are the answer. However if you take you mongering seriously you learn to speak and dance latin it is game on. I enjoy having sex with attractive young women and when I sence they are enjoying being with me it is a ego boust. Some guys are very negative about the girls. I think the girls in tough positions. The DR has almost no oppurtunity for the average girl. Selling their bodies is all many have. So I try to make my time with them enjoyable for both of us. I do see them as bitches or hoes although some are. I give them a little respect as I love women and they can tell.

I'm a beginner so I'm willing to take it slow but I'd like to go out and do a bit of "hunting" in between sightseeing.
GFE (with kissing?) is preferable.
Traveler04 & OldKool what do you mean by BB girls being cutthroat / mechanical?
[QUOTE=Chenz24;1312825]I plan travelling to Puerto Plata in the future are any of the All inclusive hotels Chica friendly.[/QUOTE]If you want to be with the same chicas, you can check in with them, but you can't switch and change chicas, without paying the hotel more money. The only all inclusive hotel that ever gave me a problem regarding a female guest I invited to the hotel, was the Casa Marina Beach and Reef all inclusive hotel in Sosua (a low budget all inclusive hotel). Casa Marina all inclusive hotel in Sosua broke my balls one time regarding a day pass for a Santiago woman who visited me, one time, she did not look hardcore. Every other all inclusive hotel I have used in the DR, the female guests I invited, had no problem checking in with me or visiting with a day pass (maybe because Sosua is known as a puta town, the rules might be different in Sosua).
FOD is across the street from playa dorada complex (playa dorada complex has 8-10 all inclusive hotels). If you wanted to stay in an all inclusive hotel and monger freely, maybe rent a second room (low cost apartment or hotel or cabana) outside the all inclusive hotel, to use for your monger related activities or f_ck in house at a place like Crystals or visit FOD or BB.

I'm a beginner so I'm willing to take it slow but I'd like to go out and do a bit of "hunting" in between sightseeing.
GFE (with kissing?) is preferable.
Traveler04 & OldKool what do you mean by BB girls being cutthroat / mechanical?[/QUOTE]A lot of it has to do with chemistry. If you don't have it then it probably feel mechanical.
I'm not saying to spend hours and hours trying to find out everything about your chica, but buying a drink and chatting with her, should give you an indication if you 2 will have fun in la cama.
Having a great time here now.

Traveler04 & OldKool what do you mean by BB girls being cutthroat / mechanical?[/QUOTE]I have almost always had GFE with good kissing after all that is part of the GFE. My experience is that at times the girls are on a mission to complete the task as rapidly as possible to get onto the next customer. I have also found this to be true Thurs. To Sun. More often than Mon. To Wed. When it is a bit slower. I have also had more girls interested in ST at night rather than TLN. They do not have to work as hard. Lets face it if a girl can do 2 ST (2 hours +-) she can make as much if not more than staying all night. I love a good happy hour with 2 girls. They love it too as they get paid the same and work much less. If you let them. Don't let them!
Every thing trav said was on the money. However much of the time the girls are waiting and often not having a man for days. Way more women then guys and some girls dominate. So most do not make very much money. Average DR women make less then 50 bucks a week. 2000 pesos. So if they can get 3 or 4 guys a week they are ahead of the game. The girls know the guys are in and out. Most make no effort for GFE. You cum they go wait for next guy. In Sosua there some hot weekend pros. They are less jaded and are nieve enough to havf\e fun with you if you play your cards right. If you speak no spanish and have game then BB is a God send. However if you are serious about our hobby Sosua rocks.

Firstly, Good Evening Gentleman.
Semana Santa March 24 2013 to March 30 2013 is almost 7 months away.
Already, JetBlue is selling tickets to POP for $700 dollars.
Is anyone else planning a trip to the "D" for that week?

What is the going rate for the Chica at the BB These Days I traveled there like 4 years just wanted to see if it was around the same.
[QUOTE=Chenz24;1314587]What is the going rate for the Chica at the BB These Days I traveled there like 4 years just wanted to see if it was around the same.[/QUOTE]ST 1600 pesos. LT 3000 pesos, girl on girl 300 pesos, have heard they discontinued the 500 pesos Jacuzzi.
As to BB prices:

What is the going rate for the Chica at FOD does is it different from BB.
[QUOTE=Chenz24;1314833]What is the going rate for the Chica at FOD does is it different from BB.[/QUOTE]I stayed at both places BB were set prices but FOD you can negotiate I took two out of FOD for 3000 pesos all night.
This was the best place I found in the whole country for P4P. Rooms were great at a fair deal. The only drag is that its far away from things so you need a car or bike. You don't have to talk about money ever, its all on the menu. The chick I banged was the winner of the bikini contest, the one in the pink. I forgot how many peso, but it was around 45 USD for the good shag. Well, never mind the picture. I tried 5 times, it wouldn't load. Even tried re booting. Sorry

Hello fellow mongers!
First I must thank you all for the information you have shared here from your past experiences, it really makes life easier for inexperienced people like me.
I also have a few questions and appreciate your feedback.
I am visiting DR for the first time, I've planned my trip for Sep 15 till 21st. I do not speak spanish at all and I'm traveling alone. I'm thinking of doing some scuba diving during day time and filling the gaps with mongering which I expect will be my main activity on this trip.
Here are my questions:
Where in Puerto Plata should I stay in order to be close to places of interest? Where is the nightlife district, if there is such an area, something like the walking street in Pattaya, Thailand perhaps?
How can I score some weed? I tried to educate myself a bit on the web, all I learned was it is very strict in DR and I will be in serious shit if I get caught possessing or using it and it's better to forget about it completely. The thing is most of the stuff I found was too outdated. People also said that some of locals will sell you the weed and then sell you out and cops show up for arresting you, is that right?
Is this an option to have a chica to accompany me lets say for a couple of days for a flat rate? How much would that cost? I like this kind of arrangement since it's more like a GFE.
I also appreciate any other heads up or comments.
Cheers.
I prepare a trip to DR for next October and I want to stay one week at Blackbeards (I will post about the experience when I will be again at home).
I know the cost of a girl for ST (1600 pesos) and TLN (3000 pesos) , but, anyone know the cost for taking the girl out for excursion, beach, playing golf, dinner, . Is it the same cost if she is working or if she is on her free day?
Thanks for your help.

You should not touch it in the DR and, yes, you are quite likely to be set up by the suppliers. You would be very happy to pay many thousands of dollars to get out of a Dominican jail. (See recent posts about conditions in Dominican jails). Even if they only get a small share of that (the lawyers and police will get most) it will be worth a lot more than what they make selling the stuff.

Usually it ends up with them being disappointed or scammed. I assume you will be spending your time in Sosua and it is even harder to do there. You need to spend a short while with a girl, then if you get on fine spend a night, and gradually increase the time. 95% of the time one or other of you will want to separate before two days is up.
This is obviously your first trip and you don't know shit. I would use it to get the feel of the place and learn some of the pitfalls. Then try something more ambitious on future visits.
Hello All.
Although I am new to the board, I am not new to the DR, having visited Sosua and BB's several times in the past couple of years. I recently enjoyed an extended stay at the "new" Field of Dreams and to be honest, had the best time ever!
What follows is a collection of my miscellaneous observations regarding the hotel and the experience. As it is not brief, I will post it in installments. We begin with a few events that transpired before the actual trip. Hope you like it.
Before the Trip.
Well, my enjoyment of my first visit to Field of Dreams actually began well before I set foot on DR soil. I was made to feel welcome at the resort more than a month prior to my arrival.
First, one of the owners, Jeffrey, agreed to give me a nice discount on the room rate, in recognition of my booking a stay of some length. 10 nights. That immediately made me feel that ownership valued my business and was striving to make my experience a positive one. He also agreed to allow "my girl" (a non-FOD girl who lives in Puerto Plata) , to ride with him to the airport to pick me up. Yes, Jeffrey, one of the owners was going to personally pick me up at the airport! Hey, I was feeling more and more important by the moment!
Then I received a Facebook friend request from the adorable Wendy, one of the FOD chicas. We chatted a lot, with Wendy stationed at one of the two computers in the FOD bar area. There was a camera on the computer, and Wendy was nice enough to step further away from the computer and pose for me in her bikini, thus giving me a very nice preview of what was waiting for me at "The Field."
In the days that followed, Wendy, via the computer, introduced me to two other girls that she thought might meet my specifications (I had told her I like thin, petite girls) , Dianna and Melissa. Both very cute and sweet, and I had numerous Facebook chats, almost daily, with this threesome in the weeks leading up to my trip.
It was a great way to break the ice at a new location, making a few friends before arriving, knowing that I would not be a total stranger when I walked through the door. This experience greatly added to the anticipation of the visit.
More to come.
BBis great but three days is plenty. Nothing to do but eat and fuck which is not a bad thing however you will get bored. Sousa has more scenery both women and things to do. Use you time wisely.

Not speaking spanish makes getting a girl friend tough. However in the DR all things are posible. I use Dominican Cupid to meet DR chicas. You may fine one that speaks some english. I have had great success but I speak enough.
Spanish to be dangerous. My experience has been awesome. Her are a couple of my girls. If you treat them well. Talk to them on the internet see them on skype you have a great time. REeal GFE just do not send money. You may have to buy a bus ticket or traveling money but that is fine.
These are my cupid girls and they are wonderful.

The Facility.
Field of Dreams actually IS located in a field. Set well back from the main street joining Puerto Plata to the airport, and surrounded by pasture. Thus a very quiet and tranquil setting.
The pictures on the website do not do the hotel justice. In real life, the grounds are much larger than depicted. The bar area, for example is huge and beautiful. Not only is there a very long bar seating maybe a dozen, but also in the bar area there are 4 nice sized dining tables, each with seating for 4, 3 raised tables with stool seating for 4, and 2 smaller raised tables with seating for 2. For any overflow situations, there are 4 more dining tables with seating for 4 located in the adjacent pavilion area. Lots of seating!
Two high-def big screen TV's in the bar area (as well as one in each room). Normally on these trips, I do not watch a great deal of TV, but the Olympics were on, and I did take an occasional glimpse at the TV's in the bar area at times. And the hotel is hooked up to American DirecTV.
Also in the bar area a nice pool table, and two computers, which are available for guests to use. The girls make good use of this opportunity to keep up on their facebook pages. Also a large sectional sofa in the corner of the bar area, next to the computers.
The pool is large and beautiful, with a cool waterfall on one side in the middle, and a ledge to sit on under the waterfall. And in general, the main compound is nicely laid out. All the rooms are ground level, and none are very far from the pulse of the hotel, the bar area. Bathrooms are modern and functional. Good water pressure in the shower, and always hot water.
And the air conditioning. Ah, the air conditioning! In my previous trips to other hotels during the oppressively hot months of June, July, August, I have never experienced excellent air conditioning, even whilst running the AC 24 hours at the coldest setting of 17. Not the case here. Without even setting the AC at the coldest level (I found setting it at 22 or 23 to be perfect) , the room cooled down in a reasonable amount of time and stayed nice and cool.
Very comfortable! Everything about the hotel, very comfortable!

More to come.[/QUOTE]So you had a better time then all the times you spent at BB
Special thanks to you Mr. Pooter for your advise.
I guess I can still manage to be super happy there in DR even without M. J. Maybe we have been a little spoiled here in Canada having easy access to good quality stuff.
I guess I am going to stick to experienced people's advise and split my time between BB and FoD, getting to know the country better. I'll be happy to meet up with fellow mongers for a drink too. I will be there from Sep 15 till Sep 21 and will share my finding here when I'm back for sure.
Happy mongering!

[QUOTE=OldKool;1318092]These are my cupid girls and they are wonderful.[/QUOTE]Damn OldKool, some nice looking ladies.
So why in the hell am I only getting 200-300 pounders contacting me on the Cupid site?
I am having a hard time scheduling which ones get to ride the chocolate pony. I talk to them and socialize. You really start to like them and they you. Only so many bullets in the gun. Take the initiative on cupid contact the one you want. They will respond. In two weeks you have them showing you T&A. ToniteI had a chica who was telling me about her lesbian friend who we can invite over. Take a look at her. The posibilities are scarey. Just do not send a lot of money. If she is a winnner you may want to prime the pump. They will hop on the bus and meet you anywhere you want on the island and be thrilled to do it. your wallet is a beautiful thing to them and the posiblities you present. Honestly I love women and treat them very well. women tend to be very giving when they feel appreciated. When they look in my eyes they know I like them.

Myths vs Facts.
Myth. Not many girls hanging around, and none at night.
Fact. There is a more than adequate supply of girls on hand on a 24 hour basis. About 6 girls spend the night at the hotel in a nice little dorm-like setting in the back area. Typically there are a dozen or more girls on hand throughout the day and night. And as I found out one evening when I found myself with a sick chica who needed to go home, an off-duty girl can be called in at a moment's notice.
Myth. The food portions are small.
Fact. I found this NOT to be the case. A highly-esteemed member of this board reported this comment made by a couple of his friends several weeks ago on another forum. I found the portions to be more than sufficient. In fact, on most nights after consuming about 60 or 70% of my meal, I found myself stuffed, and I saved the remainder in a plastic container in the refrigerator in my room, and enjoyed a nice lunch the following day. The kitchen staff cheerfully heated it up for me in the microwave. Many more comments regarding the food in a future installment.
Myth. The location is not so great.
Fact. I liked the location. The best surprise was the discovery of a very nice public beach, which is located just down the street. It would be about a 10-15 minute walk, I believe. By car it took literally 3 minutes (I timed it). I also took my girl to Sosua beach one afternoon, and that was just a quick 20 minute ride. There were a couple of days in which I needed an item or two from a supermarket and I was able to hitch a quick ride with Jeffrey or Jimmy, who were headed in that direction to run an errand. I also like to take long, brisk exercise walks, and the Playa Dorada complex directly across the street is perfect for that. Very beautiful.
One of the best features of the FOD location is that it is not in Costombar, and thus you are not at the mercy of the infamous Costambar taxi-mafia and their somewhat inflated rates. I do have a Puerto Plata driver I have used in the past, but was not able to get ahold of him on the phone this trip. So FOD management hooked me up with two other drivers for rides to Sosua Beach and the Manantial Pizcina. Great service and reasonable rates from both Carlos and Johnny.
You are also a one minute walk from the main road, and there you can catch one of the publico taxis, which seem to come by every two or three minutes. I did not ride one of them this time, but I will in the future. My understanding is that they are dirt cheap.
Myth. Nobody goes there.
Fact. Upon arrival, I walked into the middle of the Wednesday afternoon bikini contest, and the place was packed. There were also a group of 4 golfing buddies staying at the hotel my first couple of nights, and then another group of 4 came in to take their place. There were also numerous random singleton guests coming and going during my stay. For me, it was actually a nice mixture of activity and tranquility.
Myth. They are trying to copy Blackbeard's.
Fact. Of course there are numerous similarities, the main concept of both establishments being chicas, booze, food. And do not interpret this in any way as a knock against BB's (I have had several very enjoyable visits there that I will always remember) , but Field of Dreams is different, the attitude is different, the atmosphere is different. You can see it in the management, you can see it in the chicas. BB's is well-established, FOD is working like crazy to establish their own identity, find their niche. In doing so, they have fostered an incredibly customer-friendly "how can I help?","what can I do?" persona. It is something that to fully appreciate and process, you will have to visit and experience for yourself.

This was Mcncug's first visit to Field of Dreams and he has no connection with the management. He has been for many years a loyal customer of Blackbeards and continues to speak well of that place. He just fancied a change and was agreeably surprised. Field of Dreams is getting good reviews on all the boards at present. The only question is whether they can keep it up. Let's hope they can.
I had a long talk with Mcncug there and he has his own style of mongering which wouldn't work for most of our posters but he has fine-tuned it over the years and it works for him. He is very "picky" and is definitely into quality over quantity. He makes his contacts over the internet and Field of Dreams is better to take such girls back to than Blackbeards or Sosua.

You would think he would just state his name and job title and give us information instead of trying to bullshit us.[/QUOTE]Thank you for your input Billy. But the truth is that (as Mr Pooter said) , I have been to Blackbeard's and Sosua a handful of times over the past couple of years, and decided to give FOD a try. My posts are the result of having experieced a teriffic stay at The Field and a level of customer service that I found to be absolutely wonderful. So I decided to post a positive review of the place for that reason. Nothing more, nothing less.
The Food.
Patricio is the head chef at The Field, and he is my new hero. On my first night there, he came out of the kitchen and introduced himself and informed me that he can cook many other dishes that are not on the menu, he can do Italian, Mexican, etc. Just ask.
I enjoy a small salad every evening with dinner, and this item did not appear on the menu. So I asked Patricio if this was possible, and voila! That evening and every following evening he had a really nice salad for me, without me needing to request it!
Patricio won me over with the first meal I ate there on my first night. Not a very complicated dish, grilled chicken breast and baked potato. Well, the chicken was moist and tender and tasty, like you wouldn't believe, and there was this sauce served with it (I ordered mushroom sauce, but they must have misunderstood, because this wasn't mushroom sauce. And he later told me what kind of sauce it was, but I don't remember) , and I got to tell you, I was in amazement as to how delicious this chicken dish was. I would order it twice more during my stay!
Okay, so as the nights unfolded, Patricio backed up his words. One afternoon, he pulled me into the kitchen and showed me some chicken he was preparing for that evening, it was going to be barbeque chicken. And he insisted that I take a taste of his special BBQ sauce. Very impressive!
So I ordered the barbeque chicken that night and let me tell you, it was mah-velous! I had it again a few nights later (I guess it is obvious I like chicken). One night I tried to get him to duplicate a dish I enjoyed at another local hotel, an Oriental beef dish. Well, it did not turn out exactly the same based on my description, but it was truly excellent, nonetheless, and I will order it again in the future.
And so it went. Some of the other meals I enjoyed that were fantastic included the Churasco Steak, Spaghetti Bolonese, BBQ Chicken Sandwich, and Filet Mignon. All very memorable, and all reasonably priced. In fact, for 10 nights in which I purchased dinner for myself and my date, plus misc. Drinks here and there, plus breakfast for two on my final morning. My total bar / restaurant tab for the full 10 nights (including tax and gratuity) came to well under $300. More than reasonable!
And oh yeah, one more thing to add to the food commentary. Does water count as food? One nice little perk of visiting FOD is that in the bar / restaurant area is located a water cooler, dispensing water from one of those large bottles that U-turn upside-down and insert in the cooler. This bottled water is available to everyone at no charge. I thought this was another nice reflection on the customer-friendly attitude of FOD, when they just as easily could have supplied water to guests only through purchase.
I am going to stop writing about the delicious food at FOD now, because writing this installment has made me hungry, and I need to go get something to eat.
[QUOTE=Charles Pooter; 1319138]I understand your suspicion but you are completely wrong in this case. This was Mcncug's first visit to Field of Dreams and he has no connection with the management. He has been for many years a loyal customer of Blackbeards and continues to speak well of that place. He just fancied a change and was agreeably surprised. Field of Dreams is getting good reviews on all the boards at present. The only question is whether they can keep it up. Let's hope they can.
I had a long talk with Mcncug there and he has his own style of mongering which wouldn't work for most of our posters but he has fine-tuned it over the years and it works for him. He is very "picky" and is definitely into quality over quantity. He makes his contacts over the internet and Field of Dreams is better to take such girls back to than Blackbeards or Sosua.[/QUOTE]I stand corrected.
My bad Mcnug and nice report.
And HighClass drifter is Mountain Lion so no apologies for him. LOL

I was at Field of Dreams with a friend who is a newbie and all I have to say is that the women were chubby and not attractive. It appears that whoever is posting on this site is talking about the food and the television trying to sell you on this place. We are here for information on places and to discuss women. Please be honest with your posts and do not try to rip-off other members. I am typing this report at New garden as we speak and there are around 3 (8's) 1 (7) and 1 (4). I would give the women at Field of Dreams around the 5 range on a scale from 1-10. Sosua has been poring rain but there are still a few 100 women around just like last night. So my advise, skip Puerta plata and party is Sosua. Or we could read reports on the bar and how good food is at Field of Dreams. I am here to party and have fun. We could talk about Rocky's and there ribs but lets talk about women and adventures.
Well I am heading down to BB tomorrow for the second time ever where I had a very memorable time 4 years ago I hope this time is just as memorable I feel bad that I did not leave today cause I miss the Bikini Contest but anyways I should have a fun time anyways.

I found many very beautiful girls with great attitudes. As I have posted before the playful atmosphere and privacy enhanced my experience. Mcncug's post was similar to my experiences. I am fascinated that a newbie with out many posts is now questioned as to his connection to a business. 9 years ago when I returned from my first ever trip to BB's I was so excited and pleased with my experience I just went on and on about the place. All I got from comments and PM's was thank you and to keep posting. No one ever questioned my motive behind the posting. Remember opinions vary and that is why we should always take each post at face value and not always search for a deeper more sinister meaning.
The owners at FOD's are about building a business by having fun with everyone there. I like the fact that the owners and girls understand that their success is dependent on each other and they go out of their way to make you feel welcome regardless if you are there only for a cool drink on a hot day or you are staying for several days. Their business model is simple. Treat each customer as a friend not a walking dollar sign!
On my third day I went up to Jimmy (James) one of owners and said I wanted to have a special meal for all of the girls, owners, guests and other hotel workers that night. Jimmy and I went out and bought 20 pounds of shrimp. Patricio cooked up a heck of a meal and we feed 30+ people. We eat and drank until we were full. When we were done the girls (on their own) wanted to say thank you by putting on an amazing show that went from R to X in 15 min. The rules are different at FOD's because they are in a very private location where some fun in the common areas is not only allowed it is encouraged. One of the days I was there I was walking by a guest who was watching two girls playing pool. He says to me do you have 500 pesos? I pull out 500 pesos and put it on the table. He adds 500 pesos and the girls played pool bottomless. Really, I ask you what could be better than a cold beer and bottomless pool?
Another great advantage about the location is its ability to have a real "private" party for a group of guys. Charles Pooter had one that I missed but I heard great things about it. They can shut their place off to the public and keep the party very private. There are not many places that can do that or that would do that. FOD's is different. Once the gate is closed its on and noise is not an issue because there are no neighbors to disturb. If you want to have a group party that lasts late into the night the bar will stay open and the girls will stay around. Like all things you have to schedule events ahead of time. I know this sounds like an advertisement for the place but it is not easy to find a place anywhere that can offer this service.
In the FOD's last newsletter there were pictures of a more private retreat. I had the opportunity to have Jefferey take me through the place as it was being redone and it is beautiful. It is up in the mountain 10 min. Off the main road that goes through Puerto Plata about 15 min. From FOD's. It offers privacy and amazing views of the Puerto Plata Harbor.
FOD's and BB's have something for everyone on any budget just like Sosua. Which is better or the best is entirely based on personal experience and preference.

It appears that whoever is posting on this site is talking about the food and the television trying to sell you on this place.[/QUOTE]Thank you for your input, PH. I guess that "whoever is posting" would be me. If all of the chicas you saw at FOD were chubby and unattractive, I would assume that Yahaira, Estefania, Dianna, Melissa, Marlenny, and Yani were not there at the time, because they certainly do not fit that description in my humble opinion.
The Girls.
There were always plenty of girls around during my stay, morning, noon and night. There were all sizes, shapes and colors, something for everybody. I am extremely picky in what appeals to me, but there were 4 girls there that met my demanding physical specifications, and they were all as sweet as can be.
I did spend time with 2 of the FOD girls, Yahaira and Estefania, and they were fantastic. In fact they were so enjoyable to be with, I invited each back for 2 additional visits. I never felt rushed, and in fact they probably both spent more time with me than the contract called for.
This attitude contrasted with the attitudes of too many chicas I had encountered in the past. Watching the clock, and coming up with all kinds of reasons why it was necessary to leave early. The FOD girls never said a word about leaving. They acted as though they were comfortable with me, and it was not over until I thanked them and compensated them.
I also spent time with 3 other "outside" girls, not on the roster at the hotel. These girls were made to feel at home by the FOD chicas, they were not the target of dirty looks and biting comments. In fact, a couple of them quickly made friends amongst the FOD girls, played some billiards together, hablad in rapido espanol, and also friended on Facebook!
The FOD girls were fun to be around during the day when I was unattached and a free agent. They were fun to talk to, and in a couple of instances quite helpful. One girl in particular, Jani, was instrumental in helping me figure out how to use the cheap cell phone I purchased for the trip. Not a day went by when I didn't have a question, and she was always there with great patience to help me out.
In another interesting scenario, Margo the houskeeper had a day off one day, and several of the rooms needed cleaning. Two of the chicas set about the task of cleaning the rooms. I later learned that management paid them a very modest stipend for this service, but still. To me this was an indication of how these girls were team players and willing to pitch in, and certainly did not parade around like entitled, stuck-up princesses.
My hats off to Maria the mamasan, and Jimmy, who says he has input as to which girls are hired, retained, dismissed. Somehow they have instilled a very nice customer-friendly attitude in these girls. Again, getting back to the 2 that I spent time with. They seemed to understand the concept that treating the client right will result in repeat business. So many times previously I encountered chicas who were not smart enough to look past the payday of that one session, and gave as little effort as possible, with not a thought of earning repeat business for the future.
It should probably be noted that it appears that management treats the girls quite well at Field of Dreams. Their little dorm-area in the back, although small, is livable and it is air-conditioned, I believe. I know that at least one of the girls lives well out of town, a good couple of hours away, and out of necessity lives in the dorm 5 nights a week, and returns to her home and her baby 2 days a week. There may be others in the same situation.
So for those that have that need, there is the opportunity to live on the premisis, rent free. And not only that, the hotel feeds the girls 2 meals a day, lunch and dinner. I don't think it is anything fancy, I did see Patricio whipping up a batch of eggs and other items one afternoon. But there is a dining table in the rear in the employees area, and the girls do get their 2 squares a day. Very nice.
Mamasan Maria very pleasant to deal with. Nice, pleasing, tranquil personality, and very helpful when needed. I found out that she is the person to see when you need to purchase more minutes for your cell phone. She helped me with this a couple of times, and set everything up for me, something I truly doubt I could have done myself. A pleasure to deal with Maria. She is also the resident massage / manicure / pedicure specialist.
One of the pleasant observations was the attitudes and actions of the two girls I had spent time with. After their time with me was finished. In my past experiences, in many instances the only interaction a girl would have with me after time spent with me was to ask me to buy them a beer. At Field of Dreams, not only was I not subject to this solicitation, but it was an everyday occurrence for these girls to give me a very enthusiastic hello and greet me with a hug and a kiss. Kind of makes a guy feel appreciated!
Concerning rates for ST and TLN, I believe that "on paper," these rates are 2000 and 4000 pesos, respectively. Yeah, this is a little high, but it was also made clear to me that the girls are open to negotiating. After discussion with a couple of them, I learned that they would be very happy with 2500 for TLN, for example.
I elected to offer them 1500 for ST and 3000 for TLN, because this is what I had paid at the other hotel, and because I think they deserve a nice payday if they treat me right and make me happy. They were very delighted with these amounts (I could see it in their faces). And make me happy, they most certainly did!

I am not knowledgable about the Mustang Ranch on whether they leased or Land contracted the place.[/QUOTE]I have been told so many lies and rumors I have never been entirely clear (as is the case with most of Alberto's properties) who owns what. Owning the property and owning the business are potentially different things. I have just focussed on who manages the place and what sort of business model they have attempted, and they have been Dominican Billy, Leno (from Cristal) as the Mustang Ranch, a period when Alberto put the American guy from Las Vegas in charge (many apologies I have forgotten his name although he was very friendly to me and a competent manager but without a lot of backing from Alberto) , then the current crew.
[QUOTE=Hillbilly69;1320120]The only point to be made is mediocre chics will NOT keep that place open there is too many other options, the 3rd owner will be getting it back soon if that is the case.[/QUOTE]There has definitely been an improvement on the number and quality of chicas under the new regime. Many have said up to the standard of Blackbeards though nowhere near as many.
But you miss the point, which other posters have already touched on, that guys only stay at Blackbeards to do the in-house chicas. No-one in their right minds stays at Blackbeards if they want all their chicas from elsewhere, and if you do take in chicas from outside it is not really welcomed.
Field of Dreams, however is ideal for taking in semi-pros you might contact on the internet or pick up in the bars, discos and casinos nearby. Also for taking back chicas from nearby towns as it is on the main road with frequent quick transport. When Billy ran it, no-one went there for the in-house chicas because apart from the masagista there weren't any. And he was the only guy to make a profit out of the place. Field of Dreams does not (or should not) rely on its in-house chicas to get by. Blackbeards is just a brothel. Field of Dreams is a brothel and a hotel.
The other advantage Field of Dreams has over Blackbeards is that it offers a ST room service. Many mongers from Sosua and holiday-makers from Playa Dorada are taking advantage of this. I know Blackbeards also offer short-time rooms but it is a long way from Playa Dorada or Sosua and I believe the service only applies if you are using their chicas.

I think your missing my point which is mediocre chica casas don't make it over time, FOD is too much money to carry the debt on that place at 50 a night. The numbers don't add up.

Please be honest with your posts and do not try to rip-off other members. I am typing this report at New garden as we speak and there are around 3 (8's) 1 (7) and 1 (4). I would give the women at Field of Dreams around the 5 range on a scale from 1-10. Sosua has been poring rain but there are still a few 100 women around just like last night. So my advise, skip Puerta plata and party is Sosua. Or we could read reports on the bar and how good food is at Field of Dreams. I am here to party and have fun. We could talk about Rocky's and there ribs but lets talk about women and adventures.[/QUOTE]Ok. Lets set the record straight. Some of what I am going to say is really not anyone's business. But since it seems to be so important lets get the facts out there.
First of all, I (JesseJames on all boards) am 1 of the 4 owners here at FOD (also the only American owner. The other 3 are Canadian). So. Lets be sure we are clear on this. That does not mean we "own" the property. Someone mentioned the difference of this. You are right in the fact that we signed a long-term lease with the option to purchase at the end. So. We own the business. Not the physical property. Not that this really matters right? This business is ours to operate as we see fit. I am aware that there has been a long history on this property of "owners" that have tried and failed. Or tried and did things wrong. Or however you want to describe it. We intend to do things differently and I believe we are off to one hell of a great start!
For those of you that have stopped by (or will stop by) please be sure to ask for me (JesseJames) or Jamie. We always take care of everyone and every request possible. Period! Since Rick was mentioned. Lets mention him again. Rick from Rockies happens to be my best friend in this country and has been for nearly 5 years! He is currently helping me to promote not only the FOD grounds, but also the private villa estate that we are on the verge of opening as well. I know for a fact that Rick of Rockies has nothing but nice things to say about us. Please. Please feel free to ask him for references (those of you that know him) about who is an owner and who is / was a guest that just has nice (and honest) things to say about us!
As for Pussyhunter007. Look man. I don't ever want to say anything negative about anyone ever. And I will continue to keep that tradition here. However, there are a couple of FACTS that I would like to mention. First of all, I remember you. You were here just a couple of days ago. I especially recognize you because when you were here, and on one of your previous messages, you said you were staying at New Garden in Sosua. That being said, when you were here (for the whole 15 mins) there wasn't anything positive coming from your direction. I did try to explain to you that you were here on a slow night in the slowest week of the slow season. And if that was not enough, that there was also a hurricane passing by that had scared so many of the guests that nearly everyone had called and rescheduled their reservation. That being the case (and the fact it was a slow night anyway) we decided to let all of the girls that wished to go home. Go home. Heck, they were a bit nervous of the hurricane as well (which turned out to be nothing). Even though this was the case, we still had a few (maybe 5) girls on site. Just in case. You know. Now those girls are certainly not "fat and ugly" by any means! I hate to post names (and I do not know how to post pics here). But many a person has said they are wonderful! Now. Are they the best we have to offer? NO! Absolutely not! But consider the circumstances! Good lord, you and your friend were the only guests we had that day due to the storm, cancellations, etc etc. I am at a loss as to why you failed to mention that I did offer to call other girls if you were halfway serious about wanting someone.
I also do not want to promote other boards here. So I will gracefully mention that yes. You should go check out the pictures from the recent parties we have been having. I would love for you to tell me those girls are "fat and ugly". Yes, there are pictures I have posted. But if you don't want to "trust" those then please take a look at the HUNDREDS of pictures that other people have posted. Keep in mind. We have only been at this for a bit over 4 months at this point. We know we have a long way to go, but we are well on our way!
Over all the point is, if there are TONS of positive reviews over all the boards about us from many members that have been known for long periods of time. Well. What can I say? PussyHunter, if we are not for you I am sorry for that. I cannot possibly please 100% of the people 100% of the time. Though I will certainly give it my best effort! We welcome tips, suggestions, or even constructive criticism! We know that we are not perfect (yet) , but we are working our asses off every day to make things better. Ultimately we want to be the best. But please. Please be honest an don't just attack us (or our past guests) with comments and such that are not becoming!
I welcome you to give us another try! This Wed (8-29-12) we will be holding a bikini contest that should be quite the event. Additionally, on Sat (9-1-12) we will be having a wet t-shirt pool party that will be quite fun as well! Come by! First drink is on me! Lets put this behind us and let me show you how we operate on a day when a hurricane is NOT passing by us and we have a regular regimen of guests and girls! Heck. If you go talk to Rick from rockies he might even let you ride with him and his friends that will be stopping by.
Hope to see many of you in the near future!
The Visit.
I arrived at POP right on time on American, and sure enough, there were Jeffrey and my chica waiting for me as I exited customs. We headed for town and as previously reported stopped to change money, buy a phone for me, and get a couple of items for the room.
Upon arrival at the hotel, the bikini contest was in full swing and the joint was jumping. Wendy and Dianna and Melissa (my facebook friends) and Andreina (another girl I had met months earlier) quickly spotted me and there were hugs all around. It was great. I instantly felt like I belonged. I was able to check in, go to my room and unpack, enjoy some quality time with my chica, and still get back out in time for the conclusion of the contest.
In the days that followed I would typically have some time with a girl in the afternoon and then another for toda la noche. On a couple of days my TLN guest would show up at 3:00 in the afternoon, and we would head to the beach for 2-3 hours and then return to the hotel for TLN. This was one nice advantage of getting with an outside girl, they were very nice and flexible with their time spent with me. But I am sure the FOD girls would have agreed to the same. In fact, I have discussed this exact scenario with Yahaira for my next visit.
The nearby beach, across the street at Playa Dorada was very nice, large, and not a whole lot of people there on the weekday we went. Very relaxing. There were waves and a great breeze. The sand was really nice and my girl and I went for a nice walk. This sand was a real pleasure to walk on, as opposed to the Costambar beach, which can be punishing on the feet.
The beach was also clean, as opposed to all of the crap that washes ashore at Costambar. Someone explained to me that this is because the current is westerly and all of the garbage from Puerto Plata goes in that direction.
Lots of shops with the typical souvenirs and the typical, shall we say, ambitious entrepreneurs."My friend, my friend." Also a couple of nice bar / restaurants.
Also ventured out to Sosua Beach on my final afternoon. Beautiful location, had 3 nice relaxing hours hanging out there. Beautiful sand, beautiful scenery, and the water was awesome. Gently rolling water which was clear and cool and so refreshing! Also at Sosua beach, of course, a full compliment of restaurants, bars, and of course dozens of the souvenir shops with the typical souvenirs and the typical, shall we say, ambitious entrepreneurs."My friend, my friend."
These souvenir shop guys are so full of shit, I find it hilarious. I have a very close friend, who has also been to the DR a handful of times, let's call him David. Before I left, David and I spoke, and he asked me to do him a favor when I was down there. It seems that on a previous trip, David had purchased one of those Larimar necklaces for his mother, and at some point it had broken.
David asked if I would be kind enough to pick up a replacement for him and also one for his current girlfriend. Sure, no problem. Larimar is the national stone of the Dominican Republic, a light turquoise in color, and the necklaces (also bracelets and earrings) are very pretty items.
Okay, so it was at Sosua Beach that I set out to make the purchase for my friend. I picked out a shop and selected two of his Larimar neclaces. Roberto told me he was going to give me a good price, all the while, his trusted assistant tried to get me to also go for the matching bracelets and earrings.
Roberto's good price was 1800 pesos. I called for the calculator and divided by 39. Whoa! $46! You got to be kidding me. I smiled and told Roberto thank you very much for your time, and started to walk away."My friend, my friend," pleaded Robert. He asked me how much I was willing to pay. I told him the amount I had in mind would probably be an insult to him compared to his 1800 offer, and I am a man of respect, so it would be better just to say thank you.
"My friend, my friend." Okay, okay, I grabbed the calculator and typed in 500 pesos (about $12)."My friend, my friend." Eventually he came down to 700 pesos, but was not willing to do the 500. So I thanked him and told him I would try another tienda and would come back if I couldn't get the 500. He allowed me to leave which told me that 500 was going to be a good deal, if I could get it.
Two doors down, I was greeted by "Steady Eddy." I told him I was looking for a better deal than the previous store offered. Steady Eddy wanted to know what the other offer was. But I wanted him to tell me his best offer. Of course, Steady Eddy was too smart to play that. So after going round and round, I told him I had an offer of 600 (okay, so I lied. Wasn't if Barney Fife who said you got to fight fire with fire?) and was ready to do the deal for 500. I extended my hand. Steady Eddy hesitated, but as I pulled out my 500 peso bill, he grudgingly shook my hand. I had my 2 Larimar necklaces for $6 each.
I passed by Roberto on the way back to the beach who inquired if I needed his necklaces for the 700. I showed him my purchases and told him I had gotten the 500 deal, but thank you very much for your help. Roberto did not look happy.
My beautiful chica looked smashing in her bikini. It was a great day at the beach.
[QUOTE=PussyHunter007;1319436]I was at Field of Dreams with a friend who is a newbie and all I have to say is that the women were chubby and not attractive. It appears that whoever is posting on this site is talking about the food and the television trying to sell you on this place. We are here for information on places and to discuss women. Please be honest with your posts and do not try to rip-off other members. I am typing this report at New garden as we speak and there are around 3 (8's) 1 (7) and 1 (4). I would give the women at Field of Dreams around the 5 range on a scale from 1-10. Sosua has been poring rain but there are still a few 100 women around just like last night. So my advise, skip Puerta plata and party is Sosua. Or we could read reports on the bar and how good food is at Field of Dreams. I am here to party and have fun. We could talk about Rocky's and there ribs but lets talk about women and adventures.[/QUOTE]Ok. Lets set the record straight. Some of what I am going to say is really not anyone's business. But since it seems to be so important lets get the facts out there.
First of all, I (JesseJames on all boards) am 1 of the 4 owners here at FOD (also the only American owner. The other 3 are Canadian). So. Lets be sure we are clear on this. That does not mean we "own" the property. Someone mentioned the difference of this. You are right in the fact that we signed a long-term lease with the option to purchase at the end. So. We own the business. We lease the physical property. Not that this really matters right? This business is ours to operate as we see fit. I am aware that there has been a long history on this property of "owners" that have tried and failed. Or tried and did things wrong. Or however you want to describe it. We intend to do things differently and I believe we are off to one hell of a great start!
For those of you that have stopped by (or will stop by) please be sure to ask for me (JesseJames) or Jamie. We always take care of everyone and every request possible. Period! Since Rick was mentioned. Lets mention him again. Rick from Rockies happens to be my best friend in this country and has been for nearly 5 years! He is currently helping me to promote not only the FOD grounds, but also the private villa estate that we are on the verge of opening as well. I know for a fact that Rick of Rockies has nothing but nice things to say about us. Please. Please feel free to ask him for references (those of you that know him) about who is an owner and who is / was a guest that just has nice (and honest) things to say about us!
As for Pussyhunter007. Look man. I don't ever want to say anything negative about anyone ever. And I will continue to keep that tradition here. However, there are a couple of FACTS that I would like to mention. First of all, I remember you. You were here just a couple of days ago. I especially recognize you because when you were here, and on one of your previous messages, you said you were staying at New Garden in Sosua. That being said, when you were here (for the whole 15 mins at most) there wasn't anything positive coming from your direction. I did try to explain to you that you were here on a slow night in the slowest week of the slow season. And if that was not enough, that there was also a hurricane passing by that had scared so many of the guests that nearly everyone had called and rescheduled their reservation. That being the case (and the fact it was a slow night anyway) we decided to let all of the girls that wished to go home. Go home. Heck, they were a bit nervous of the hurricane as well (which turned out to be nothing). Even though this was the case, we still had a few (maybe 5) girls on site. Just in case. You know. Now those girls are certainly not "fat and ugly" by any means! I hate to post names (and I do not know how to post pics here). But many a person has said they are wonderful! Now. Are they the best we have to offer? NO! Absolutely not! But consider the circumstances! Good lord, you and your friend were the only guests we had that day due to the storm, cancellations, etc etc. I am at a loss as to why you failed to mention that I did offer to call other girls if you were halfway serious about wanting someone.
I also do not want to promote other boards here. So I will gracefully mention that yes. You should go check out the pictures from the recent parties we have been having. I would love for you to tell me those girls are "fat and ugly". Yes, there are pictures I have posted. But if you don't want to "trust" those then please take a look at the HUNDREDS of pictures that other people have posted. Keep in mind. We have only been at this for a bit over 4 months at this point. We know we have a long way to go, but we are well on our way!
Over all the point is, if there are TONS of positive reviews over all the boards about us from many members that have been known for long periods of time. Well. What can I say? PussyHunter, if we are not for you I am sorry for that. I cannot possibly please 100% of the people 100% of the time. Though I will certainly give it my best effort! We welcome tips, suggestions, or even constructive criticism (but we are not terribly interested in unwarranted and uncalled for attacks that really are not helpful)! We know that we are not perfect (yet) , but we are working our asses off every day to make things better. Ultimately we want to be the best. But please. Please be honest an don't just attack us (or our past guests) with comments and such that are not becoming!
I welcome you to give us another try! This Wed (8-29-12) we will be holding a bikini contest that should be quite the event. Additionally, on Sat (9-1-12) we will be having a wet t-shirt pool party that will be quite fun as well! Come by! First drink is on me! Lets put this behind us and let me show you how we operate on a day when a hurricane is NOT passing by us and we have a regular regimen of guests and girls! Heck. If you go talk to Rick from rockies he might even let you ride with him and his friends that will be stopping by.
Hope to see many of you in the near future!
AHA! I see the picture thing now. So here are a few from a recent event for your enjoyment and review. Please let me know what you honestly think!
Customer Service. Part I.
Okay, and now we get down to the meat and potatoes. In my 10 night stay at Field of Dreams, I experienced A LEVEL OF CUSTOMER SERVICE THAT WAS FAR BEYOND what I would have reasonably expected based on my previous visits to the DR.
As I understand it, there are 4 partners who are invested in owning the business. Three of them, Jeffrey, Jimmy, and Jesse are on site what seems like all the time, and the 4th is off site, I believe. Jeffrey appears to be most active on the business end of things, managing the website, reservations, purchasing, business stuff. While Jimmy and Jesse are in the mix, very often tending bar and interacting. And now I come to observe that Jesse also spends a good amount of time logged on to ****!
Please bear with me as I gush about the incredible 5-star treatment I received at Field of Dreams.
One of the owners, Jeffrey, personally picked me up at the airport. He was nice enough to allow "my girl" to ride along with him to meet me upon arrival. Jeffrey then took me to exchange dollars for pesos at a location (wish I could remember the name) that he said offered the best rate in town (I don't doubt him, because that morning I checked online before heading to the airport and it said 38. 9, and I received a rate of 39!). Then it was off to La Sirena where he helped me purchase a cell phone and helped with the activation.
This was only the beginning of the incredible amount of attention I would receive from the Three Amigos, Jeffrey, Jimmy and Jesse, during my stay.
A couple of other quick examples. One night near the end of my stay, my girl (a chica from the outside who did not work at FOD) was experiencing some stomach problems. We discussed it and decided it would be best for her to go home, take some medicine and go to sleep. Jimmy jumped on his cycle and dashed off to the Farmacia to pick up the medicine she said she needed. Jesse offered her a ride home to Puerto Plata. Both helpful gestures unsolicited! Who were those masked men? I don't know, but I wanted to thank them!
Also on the night that my girl had the sick stomach and was preparing to go home. Maria the mamasan was not on duty, but apparently one of the veteran chicas, Cafe, was her assistant. Cafe overheard what was happening and asked me if I would like to select another girl for the night. It was late, about 11:00, and it was my next-to-last night on campus, and I thought a night off would not be the worst thing for me.
But then I thought, hey, it's my next-to-last night on campus, I will be home in 2 days, why the hell not! But the problem was that the 4 girls that I fancied were not there that particular night. Cafe produced the little notebook that apparently contained the chica phone numbers, and said we can call whomever I want. It was late. I expressed that it was too late to be calling one of the girls to come in now and it would take an hour or more for them to arrive.
Don't worry, she said, they will be happy to come, and they will be here in 10 minutes (in Dominican time equals one hour, right?). Okay, okay, let's go ahead and call Estefania. Bing, bang, boom, Cafe made the call, Estefania said no problem, she would be there in 10 minutes, and to my pleasant surprise, she walked through the door in 30 minutes. I thought that was pretty teriffic. And guess what, I had a great night and a great morning with the adorable Estefania.
Thank you Jimmy, Jesse, Cafe and Estefania!

Hope to see many of you in the near future![/QUOTE]Let me explain something please, I am just telling the truth and this is not my opinion. Now, you must be getting myself mixed up with another customer. We stayed at your place before the Hurricane, a few days before. I did not say that you did not run your business well, or that you were a terrible person, or that the women did not treat people well, but that they were chubby and my friend thought so also. It appears that whoever mcncug is, who may work for you, talks about food, maid service and everything positive about your place. Which is great, but he has gone to great lengths to discuss your place, and only your place. He must be your best customer. It appears he might work for you. No bad feelings but your place is probably good for newbies, this is why I brought my friend there, because it was his first time in the DR and it will not be his last. Just Sosua in general has delights in great numbers. Especially when you walk up the stairs in Sosua to the CANDYSHOP. But do not say that you remember me, because you do not, and I never complained to you. I work hard for my money and choose to spend it however I want to. I hope your business grows. But I call it as I see it. I am entitled to my opinion. As for the owner of Rocky's, I heard from locals today in Sosua about what they did to him and
They are boycotting CMP. He got ruffed up. This is a forum sir, with advice of people on where to go and what to do. Not everyone agrees on everything. Now, I am not asking you to post women on here or sell them. I don't see anyone from Passions or CMP writing on here or posting pics of women. I am sure that you choose women who you think clients will want, I just think thay are below par for my taste but your rooms were nice and you and your staff are friendly. By the way, let me know in your opinion if you go to CMP, if you would rate any of the women as 9's in your opinion, they were dressed in sexy cowboy hats yesterday with guns. For everyone reading, go to Sosua and walk up and down the blocks and see the beautiful women and have fun and go to Field of Dreams and have fun. I am in Sosua now after blowing my 3rd load for the day and ready to meet a buddy for a few more beers. I hope everyone reading this experiences women everywhere in Puerta Plata and Sosua. They shake there asses like there is no tomorrow. A pleasure reading your post and giving us details on your place. I just hope not to read about food or maid service anymore. I hope to here more about your women and the fun events you have and to make everyone talk the next day about there adventures.
[QUOTE=HiClassDrifter; 1320782]PussyHunter007; Are you really this " Stupid " or have you been formally diagnosed with " Attention-Deficit-Disorder?" Charles Pooter, Mcncug, Llttf, Traveler 04 and other longtime, respected contributers on this board have provided an abundance of current, accurate " Monger-Intelligence " including photos on the newly reorganized FOD adult resort here in Puerto Plata; truly in my opinion, a viable, professional, western style managed " Alternative " to the internationally renowned Black Beard (Barba Negra) adult resort located on Costambar beach, with its own unique, well conceived " personal branding " or marketing strategy! Personally, I had the distinct pleasure of meeting Jamie (one of the owners) Friday night (somewhat slow amidst the hurricane warnings) and enjoyed a " 2 hour session " with one of the 4 Ladies Of The Evening present who actually lives on site. This 23 year old flaca from Nagua, personified GFE and professionalism rarely like I've seen from most of those undisciplined, drama queens patrolling Pedro Clisante in Sosua (I retired here on Costambar beach 5 years ago!) PussyHunter007; Why don't you do all of us a favor next time before posting, and " Pull your Head out of your Ass and Smell the Roses!" Over & Out Gentlemen!
" High-Class!"[/QUOTE]I will refrain from writing a respone back to your comment. I will always speak my opinion. End of discussion. I did see some great pics that were posted and some other pics. A pleasure writing back to me and thinking of myself in the term of Stupid. You are a mature person I assume who went to college, enough aid, I will just not read anything you write or post.
Customer Service. Part II.
On another day, my girl and I were planning to go to the nearby public beach adjacent to the Playa Dorada complex. Jesse volunteered a ride to the beach for us, and also gave me his personal cell phone number and instructed me to call him for pickup when we were ready.
Margo the housekeeper is another good person to get to know, another superstar on the FOD staff. She is all over the place, a one-woman gang, and took great care of me. There were a couple of days where I was expecting an early afternoon guest to be arriving, and I mentioned this to Margo, and sure enough, she had my room tidied up by the appointed hour. On the couple of days that I was taking a girl to the beach, she supplied me with some extra towels. I also twice left a pile of clothing on the bed that needed laundering, and she scooped them up and had them back to me clean and folded in a couple of hours.
In a conversation with Margo early in my stay, I told her not to worry because I had not left her a tip on the first couple of mornings. I explained to her that I prefer to just give one nice tip at the end of my stay. She thanked me profusely and told me not to worry. She also shared with me that she had been working at the hotel for a little over a month now, and she had not yet received one tip from any guest. Not one!
This saddened me, and embarrassed me on behalf of my fellow gringo visitors. This lady works her butt off "doing the dirty work" for what can not possibly be a handsome wage, and it did not make me feel good to hear this news. I mentioned it to one of the owners, and he confirmed that he always enters a vacated room just to check it out after a guest leaves, and indeed, he has never seen a tip left behind. He said the guys tip the chicas.
I would like to respectfully encourage future visitors to gift the housekeeper a modest tip, I am confident that a few dollars would be greatly appreciated and put to good use. I left Margo a nice tip, and also tipped chef Patricio and Lilliana (behind the bar).
And another example of going the extra mile, involving my hero, Chef Patricio. One of my TLN outside chica-guests was a girl who was a little shy and felt slightly uncomfortable out and about mixing with other girls and guests. She asked me if we could eat dinner in the room. Claro, mi amor! So I set up the table for us, got the menu, utensils, napkins, drinks, etc and brought them to the room, and then went to Patricio and placed our order. This actually turned out to be a very nice experience, eating in the peaceful air-conditioned privacy of the room.
Anyway, when the food was ready, I realized that there was not a large tray available for me to carry both dishes to the room, and FOD serves these meals on very large, very heavy plates. Whereupon Patricio skillfully scooped up the two meals, balanced one on his wrist and palmed the other and told me to lead the way to the room! The chef personally delivers the meals, and Bon Appetite!
Also concerning kitchen-related service. When in the DR, I often treat myself to some ice cream for desert after dinner. Field of Dreams currently does not offer ice cream on their menu. But, I knew this going in, and so on the way to the hotel when we stopped at La Sirena, I purchased a small container that I thought would fit into the little freezer section in the refrigerator in my room.
It did fit, but while the refrigerator worked great (the drinks I put in there were ice cold!) , the freezer section was not so great, and the ice cream got a little softer than it should have. So I asked management for permission to store my precious ice cream in the freezer in the kitchen. And of course they said yes, and even said they would be happy to serve it to me when I was ready. But I don't like to cause more trouble than is necessary, and I preferred to help myself, and I was given free reign in the kitchen, so I had my ice cream and I got to eat it too!
So, after conquering (sort-of) several technical difficulties today, we managed to get a bikini contest going. Here are some pictures for your viewing pleasure. I am hoping someone can help me out though. I am having trouble figuring out which ones are chubby or sub-standard.
Well. Either way. Enjoy!
They look great young and fresh. Did not see any super hot but all in all nice.

My report discussed only Field of Dreams, because I spent my entire recent visit at Field of Dreams. I don't think I am their best coustomer, after only one visit. But they certainly treated me like I was their best customer!
In Conclusion.
It is now time to bring down the curtain on this long-running mini-series. Of course, I greatly enjoyed my first visit to Field of Dreams, and I also enjoyed writing about it.
I can't say enough nice things about the new regime at Field of Dreams. From the time I was negotiating my reservation a couple of months before the trip, until the moment I was dropped off at the airport to return home, I was made to feel like I was their most important guest.
In between, I had a great time with the entire cast of characters, from the owners to the staff to the chicas to the taxi drivers, to the souvenir shop hombres. All of it very memorable.
I even met one of the the ISG legends whilst at the hotel! Yes, one of my mornings there was marred by a visit from Charles Pooter himself! But seriously folks, Charles was a charming bloke and we had a splendid chat. I found him to be incredibly handsome, suave and witty (Okay Charles, I said it. Now do I get that drink you promised me?) , although I suspect he had some difficulty deciphering my thick Yankee accent.
And here I sit, back in the U S of A, almost three weeks removed from the DR, and I am still feeling the glow of my visit. Looking back on all of the fun moments and great experiences, and excitedly looking forward to the day when I will be able to return and do it all again. I keep in contact with about 5-6 of the girls on facebook, and the conversations and the memories always put a smile on my face.
Now, isn't all of the above what taking a vacation is all about?
Obviously, I am now a big fan of this hotel, and I would recommend that for those who have not experienced the new Field of Dreams, you should give it a shot for a few nights. If you are half as impressed as I was, you will keep coming back.
During the course of posting my mini-series on this forum, I was criticized for talking too much about customer service, food, maid service, etc. Well, I thought that stuff was relevent to anyone considering a visit. But of course I realize that these visits begin and end with the chicas.
I know full well that any given chica can flake out on you at a moment's notice for no apparent reason. But I was fortunate enough to find the right mix for me on this trip. My roster was an agreeable blend of 3 girls from the outside and 2 FOD girls. With the exception of the one outside girl who had to be sent home with stomach problems, it was all good (even that worked out fine as the beautiful Estefania came in from the bullpen and put out the fire!).
Subtracting stomach-chica from the list, I have a great nucleus of 4 moving forward, and I am currently in the process of recruiting 2 new prospects for the future. One of them has already verbally agreed to a contract, and the other will have to wait a little bit before she is eligible for a roster spot under the current collective bargaining agreement (loosely translated. She doesn't turn 18 until May!). So I am looking optimistically ahead to future FOD visits.
Every destination has its unique set of pros and a cons. Same for Field of Dreams, but the pros far outweigh the cons. In fact, I would really have to dig deep to come up with any complaints.
You want a complaint? Okay, probably my biggest disappointment at The Field was that at the bar / restaurant, the napkins were really small, so small as to be annoying. They need bigger napkins (or maybe I am just an unusually messy eater?). But hey. If the damn napkins are my biggest complaint, I would say the place is on the right track! Keep up the great work, guys!
And just like the other locations, Field of Dreams has its own unique atmosphere. For me, I found a pleasing balance between activity and peace and quiet, not to mention the incredible customer service. I strongly encourage the uninitiated to drop by some time.
So. All of my thanks to the entire staff for making my first visit such a great one! Can't wait to get back there! I have a feeling that in the not too distant future, as Field of Dreams continues to pick up momentum and more and more people "discover" what a great destination it is, that the classic Yogi Berra line may well apply.
"Nobody ever goes there anymore, because it's always too crowded."

I visited FoD yesterday and solved a mystery that had been puzzling me. On my visits to Field of Dreams I have always found the chicas to be mostly flaca. There are one or two carrying extra fat, but very few. All the reports I have read and hundreds of recent pictures I have seen from, and conversations I have had with, other experienced mongers would seem to confirm this impression. Yet PussyHunter007 pronounced them mostly "chubby" after his visit. How could this be?
The answer I found out yesterday is that with the tropical storm (and possible hurricane) Isaac imminent, the management had sent home all the flaca chicas in case they were blown away by the wind, and had called in a bunch of local chubbies to serve as paper-weights for the garden furniture.
No wind yesterday and normal service resumed with (I counted) eight flacas (by anyone's standards) , five average (though they would also be considered too skinny for many of my "brothers") and two chubbies (though Dominicans would not call them "gorda".

Really what is pussyhunter complaining about.
F. O. D is awesome & another great option.
I for one was able to stop by when ALL the GIRLS where present &
Jose was having a meeting just before the topless party.
There's def someone for Everyone.
I think pussyhunter was just having a bad day!

Yet PussyHunter007 pronounced them mostly "chubby" after his visit. How could this be?
The answer I found out yesterday is that with the tropical storm (and possible hurricane) Isaac imminent, the management had sent home all the flaca chicas in case they were blown away by the wind, and had called in a bunch of local chubbies to serve as paper-weights for the garden furniture.
No wind yesterday and normal service resumed with (I counted) eight flacas (by anyone's standards) , five average (though they would also be considered too skinny for many of my "brothers") and two chubbies (though Dominicans would not call them "gorda".[/QUOTE]I have heard that from you before if you want to get specific 3rd week of January 2010 before your 70th birthday party, you said FOD was filled full of hot babes so me and the Scott went down there with you and Billy only to find butt uglies with big fatties. Take some pics with your Kodak, pictures say 1000 words.
Gogo said step down from Blackbeards, Pussy said big fatties, you calling Gogo I liar too?
The only picture Frannie ever posted her ass was wider than the car I drive so I would keep my opinions to myself if I were you.
I've heard it is best to ask the girls. If they don't object (In Sosua, most won't, I've been told) , give them 100 pesos and you'll see a motoconcho pass by minutes later.
Not a big fan of the nightlife in Puerto Plata. Street walkers by the malecon and in the nightclubs, but low quality. Pto Pta's discos can be a lot of fun after a few beers and once you have secured a sweetheart, this said. But I haven't had much luck hunting in discos. Dominicanas are easily approachable, but expect some courtship. Problematic if you are on a short trip, and given the other options readily available.
Hence I hunt online from home before flying in. I usually spend my nights in Sosua with paid girls, and my afternoon in Puerto Plate with Cupid chicks.
I expect to arrive in DR on the 19th. PM me for a beer in Sosua, Malecon or FoD.
[QUOTE=Reza Gh; 1317774]Hello fellow mongers!
First I must thank you all for the information you have shared here from your past experiences, it really makes life easier for inexperienced people like me.
I also have a few questions and appreciate your feedback.
I am visiting DR for the first time, I've planned my trip for Sep 15 till 21st. I do not speak spanish at all and I'm traveling alone. I'm thinking of doing some scuba diving during day time and filling the gaps with mongering which I expect will be my main activity on this trip.
Here are my questions:
Where in Puerto Plata should I stay in order to be close to places of interest? Where is the nightlife district, if there is such an area, something like the walking street in Pattaya, Thailand perhaps?
How can I score some weed? I tried to educate myself a bit on the web, all I learned was it is very strict in DR and I will be in serious shit if I get caught possessing or using it and it's better to forget about it completely. The thing is most of the stuff I found was too outdated. People also said that some of locals will sell you the weed and then sell you out and cops show up for arresting you, is that right?
Is this an option to have a chica to accompany me lets say for a couple of days for a flat rate? How much would that cost? I like this kind of arrangement since it's more like a GFE.
I also appreciate any other heads up or comments.
Cheers.[/QUOTE]
I have smoked on several occasions with no issues. I have bought my own which can make you a little nervous but it is not hard to get there. The quality of weed there may not be better t hen here. Two ways to get it there. I usually get the girls to get it for me. So they buy it and transport. The other way is the motor couche guys especilly if they are haitians and if the girls are haitian they are more likely to smoke. Dominican do not seem to be into weed as much as the haitians The haitians girls are great in bed. Always get your monies worth. I think the set up crap is bs. However I am still very careful let the ladies get it for you. They know where to buy and want to make you happy. Having a buzz in classicos was awsome.

Here is a video I did of FOD back in June that maybe you missed. Also included is a lineup of the FOD bikini contest.
[url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hvFcLxko6nQ&feature=youtu.be[/url]
Now here is a video of the BB girls and pics. You will see that All these girls are awsome. When I walk in FOD I find myself looking around for that gem. When I go to BB I say" they are all gems". Flat belys and nice asses. Even the big girls (check pic) from BB look fine. Thats the main difference to me. Both resorts are lovely. Both resorts have fair pricing. I wish FOD good luck but my advise would be to get people there, having that many rooms sitting empty won't help the resort survive. I would establish a VIP list of spenders that could travel on short notice. I would reach out to these spenders and offer free rooms for three days if they pay for 4. This way these spenders would help the bottom line by buying drinks, food and girls. Maybe an ISG special for the members. Whatever it took to get guys there. Its said when the owners out number the guests. Maria is a gem.

I have been off the site for a couple of weeks and have now read all of the posts. Some of the posts were funny, Gogo had some good advice about discounts etc. For ISG members and a nice trip report or two. Gogo I do enjoy your youtube videos thank you.
I would now like to offer my opinion on FOD vs BB's and Sosua.
Eight years ago I found a great place called Black Beards. It instantly became my second home. At that time it was slowly (one room at a time) on its way up and John the owner was (is) working his ass off and spending money to constantly up grade the facility etc. For most of the time Tim was right there by his side. Each year the place grew, the food got better, the service got better, the rooms were improved, girls got hotter and better behaved, cost remained for the customer consistent. There was always some improvement that I noticed on every trip. BB's has, like a fine wine, gotten better with age. There is something and someone for every taste. Their business model works and they have managed to weather every storm to date. You have to tip your cap to them!
FOD is where BB's was eight years ago. It is developing / evolving each day into the business the owners believe will offer an amazing experience for both the seasoned veteran and the newbie. I and others have posted some comparisons to FOD's and BB's but they are at different stages of development. Having spent some time in July with the business partners I believe that they have a well thought out business plan with specific goals and a realistic timeline for full implementation and realization of those goals. I will say that they have an amazing energy level and it can be felt through the girls and the entire staff. I have said this before they understand that every employee (including the girls) has a part in the success of FOD's.
Sosua is and at least for now will be a place that many will not stray to far from. While many seasoned veterans remember a slightly different atmosphere in Sosua in the past it still has much to offer everyone and on every budget.
The beauty of the DR (besides the girls) is its diversity. There is something for us all. The like-minded people I have met on every trip of all different sizes, shapes, income levels and nationalities is amazing. Some of my closest friends are the ones I have met while in Sosua, Santo Domingo, Santiago, FOD's and BB's. Please keep the trip reports, pictures and videos coming as they help us all kill time until we can escape from reality of our real lives to our fantasy lives in the DR.

I have been to several, done BB and FOD, and can't say anything bad about either but a couple of others were real shitholes. One you may want to consider as a newbie, is a smaller, private, all inclusive on Boca Chica Beach. I had given up on Boca Chica, but a friend recommended this on to me and I tried it and fell in love with it. For a newbie it is especially good, they give you a cell phone to use with a translator on the other end if you are out somewhere and can't make your girl understand what you want just ask Fiol to translate for you. There is also a number to the owner you can call 24/7. If you look at their website you will see they offer more than any other place out there and for less money. When I left the owner (American) was talking about giving a couple of hunderd bucks off to newbies. Oh I almost forgot about the toys, they must have over 5, ooo dollars in toys and furniture to play with and if you are in the middle of layin some pipe and want a beer, just call room service, I even got breakfast in bed. Service is my big thing and there it was the best ever. The other thing, if you do go there by chance, mention you were referred by Cal Hunt they also give referral points for free nights. But Wherever you go Enjoy and have a Blast. Almost forgot it's Club Fantasy Island.

I'll be in town for a four day weekend next week. I plan to stay at the Lomar. I'm going to walk in and negotiate a 4 night stay. Does anyone know what the locals pay? Also, can anyone recomend any inexpensive resturants in walking distance, or a short moto away? Thanks!

Close by are various "casetas" on the beach side of the malecon, some of which serve food."Big Lee's" is owned by an American guy. The caseta at the corner of Long Beach is very reasonable for food and has a "plato del dia" starting at 12:00 pm as well as some US type dishes. Has nice views of the ocean and beaches.
La Sirena supermarket has a cafeteria which is cheap, but not very good food (in my opinion). Each dish you select is weighed and you pay by weight. Great location, ocean views.
Rather better is the cafeteria at Tropical Supermarket, (almost behind La Sirena) that is good for lunches. Non alcoholic. Has carry out service. There is a restaurant also next door to Tropical where you can eat in or out. There are various Dominican diners or "comedors" all over the place, but the food is pretty much the same in all.
There is a pizza place on the Malecon near Lomar and various other places on the town side of the Malecon. None of them really stand out.
Dominican food is excellent if you cook yourself, since there is much excellent fresh fruit, vegetables, fish, etc. But Dominican restaurants tend to be basic and very unimaginative.
For a better quality meal, albeit more expensive, Portofino (Italian) at Long Beach is not bad (and there is a Dominican restaurant now called Grandmother's Hearth next door that is not too bad.)
There are a couple of bakeries, one next to the Isla gas station behind La Sirena that has some good baked snacks, pizza bread, cakes.

[QUOTE=Frannie;1322550]But Dominican restaurants tend to be basic and very unimaginative.[/QUOTE]That's because the Dominican public is basic and unimaginative. Dominicans of both sexes and all ages are very reluctant to try anything new even if they aren't paying. So long as they have their white rice with all the nutrition bleached out of it, their fart-inducing tinned beans, and their scraggy chicken parts fried in grease, they are happy, probably because they know they are getting more than the average Haitian.
Two good restaurants a five minute moto ride from Lomar are The Palms and Taste, both in Avenida Luis Ginebra, but they ain't cheap.
I live five minutes walk from the Lomar. Look me up when in town if you have time. We are brothers, after all.

frannie is correct, dominican food is very basic. i remember when i first started going to the north coast, girls would invite me by for dinner. i'm expected this fabulous meal, but i'm looking at beans, rice, and chicken. i soon stopped expecting anything different.
now cuban food is magical. there is this older cuban guy that has a restaurant here in florda that is great. whenever i feel sick i go there and he puts some spices in a fish dish that makes me well the next day. puerto ricans make some good dishes also.

frannie is correct, dominican food is very basic. i remember when i first started going to the north coast, girls would invite me by for dinner. i'm expected this fabulous meal, but i'm looking at beans, rice, and chicken. i soon stopped expecting anything different.

[QUOTE=JesseJames1447;1322189]Ruso gives the best rate. There are 2 of them that I know of currently. One is right across from Burger King, the other is in the gas station plaza that has the Inigma Night Club.[/QUOTE]It's RUSA and I agree they give the best service. The main one, and nearest to Lomar, is in Calle 10 de Julio, a couple of minutes walk from Parque Central. They stay open later than banks to 6. 00pm (or maybe 7. 00pm).
Interested in your mention of Enigma Night Club (pronounced by the locals as "Enema"). It was where you describe in Plaza Turistica for many years, then moved to the Malecon about three years ago. It then closed down a year ago or more. Has it moved back to the old site? Are you out of date, or am I?
It had an amusing sign outside boasting "24 sympathetic girls". I always bore it mind as the place to go if I ever tripped over and grazed my knee. (I never saw more than half-dozen chicas there at any one time).

Hey Manizales, I discovered the INFAMOUS, LEGENDARY NAOMI, at Crystals / Mustang Ranch aka FOD aka Fiesta aka, (some private club I don't know the name) aka FOD once again aka To be continued. LOL. I'm looking for Fatties with Sexy toes. And flacas con bonita dedos de los pies. LOL! Quero chupar mucho dedos de los pies. (damn foot fetish). LOL. I will post all highlights-low lights, and like I always mention 'no lights at all! ' I'm powering up the Chocolate Jackhammer as we speak. I'm going to just pop in, so I can get the true feel of the place. Ill get plenty of pictures, and I'm looking forward to meeting to management and shaking thier hand. Who knows maybe Ill discover another Naomi.

[QUOTE=Charles Pooter; 1322567]That's because the Dominican public is basic and unimaginative. Dominicans of both sexes and all ages are very reluctant to try anything new even if they aren't paying.

[QUOTE=Charles Pooter;1322571]Both good choices for a newbie. Why not split your trip and see which you like best? I would do Blackbeards first. Then if you are finding your feet in the DR and feel a bit more confident you could make trips into Sosua and Puerto Plata which are easier to do from Field of Dreams.[/QUOTE]Cool. Well, I will just stick with BB this October then return in December around New Year's eve and try FOD the second time around.

I just assumed they closed at the Plaza when they opened the other because it always looked dead when I passed plus they move all their expensive signage to the Malecon. I am surprised they closed because of violence because I imagine you need at least two people present to achieve that. Maybe the manager just "self-harmed"?
I know El Consulado, and La Fragrancia next door, very well and have often mentioned them on here. I used to live nearby and called in everyday to see if there was any fresh meat because the regular stock was not very enticing. Now and then there was and I had some great and very cheap times. My girlfriend's two cousins work in la Fragrancia. I was deeply moved by the lady who smoked with her fanny and tried to persuade my gf to do the same at home but she insists smoking is bad for one's health. If you want some local color they are good to visit but make sure you evacuate your bowels and bladder first. A friend of mine used the bano in El Consulado and came out a broken man. He said he had lost the will to live and didn't return to the DR for some time.

Chris Long at Black Beards.
Had the opportunity to spend a four day weekend at Black Beards.
Airport:
Arrival at Puerto Plata airport is pretty painless follow the signs to customs and immigration both of which are pretty painless, pay your $10 visa fee go through both custom and immigration exit and get your pick up. I arranged for BB to pick me up at the airport. There was a guy there with a sign with my name on it. The cost is $45 one way you pay when you check in along with your room fee do not pay the driver, pay for the ride at the front desk when you check it.
Black Beards:
Black beards is basically a fuck palace. There are about a dozen or so HOT Latinas hanging around the pool waiting for someone to fuck them. There are two shifts one from 11 am until 6 pm and the second from 6 pm until 12 midnight. The women in my opinion are HOT I was very pleased with the looks of the women I found there. The women you see in the news letter are in fact the women that are there, there is no bait and switch, and you will find those girls at Black Beards. The women can be aggressive at times trying to get you to session with them and will push you to schedule an appointment, a word of caution if you schedule an appointment you are obligated to keep it, if you don't keep the appointment you still have to pay the fee. The fee is 1600 pesos for two hours or 3000 pesos for overnight, it depends on the girl but most girls will usually leave around 8 or 9 in the morning. Also, if you do not chose a TLN by midnight there are no other options as all of the girls leave at midnight and the place really dies down. After that time you will find no one there but the crickets. The day shift will dress in bikinis and lounge around the pool suggestively with legs wide open. The night shifts generally wear attractive evening club wear. On the weekends there is usually some event in the upstairs disco which can be quit fun and the girls really get into it and have a good time. Often they seem to have a theme night wear the girls will all dress in white or some other similar type of dress. I found the sessions to be quite good on this trip, on past trips there seemed to be a certain amount of bad acting in the bed room and a tendency to rush the session by some of the girls. This did not seem to be the case on this trip as many of the girls seemed to really enjoy the session and provided a good time without any rush and there was never any request for a tip. (I know many of you like to tip, but please do not do this, you are going to spoil the market just as it's spoiled in SJ and all of the girls will come to expect a tip for the service, for BBBJ for DATY. So please do not tip) BBBJ and DATY were standard in all of my sessions the sex itself is covered.
Black Beards is a nice hotel, the rooms I had were good. I initially had the basic single but then upgraded to a better room, I was pleased with both of my rooms, safes in the room air-conditioning TV hot and cold running water, nice rooms nice establishment. The only problem was the wifi, on my previous trip the wifi was good and I had good internet access in my room, on this trip it did not matter where I was at the wifi was either painfully slow or not accessible at all. The staff and the service personal were all good and the food at Black Beards was good and plentiful and I eat almost exclusively at Black Beards. I found the prices there to be the same as the other restaurants in the area.
I did not find any freelances in the area though others have told me they found them. There are attractive locals walking around that I believe could be had but it may take a little Spanish and some time.
Yennys is the place to go to exchange money and to buy your vitamin V. Yennys gives you market exchange rates and will also sell you generic vitamin V for 100 pesos per pill which today is about 3 to 4 dollars a pill. Yennys is the BOMB. When your driver picks you up from the airport you can ask your driver to stop at Yennys before he takes you to Black Beards or you can just walk there from Black Beards it's a five minute walk at most. Once you exit Black Beards turn to your right and follow the road it will wind around a bit but will lead you to Yennys the place itself is not that big so even if you do get lost you will quickly find your way.
The Beach is less than a five minute walk from Black Beards, Once you exit turn to your left go to the end of the street and turn to your right it will lead you to the beach. The beach is nice there are venders and shops along the beach and some have said they found free lancers there. Though I have never seen anyone I could definitely say was a free lancer. There are women at the beach but a word of caution families go to the beach quit often, so approaching any attractive girl there thinking she is available may find yourself with an unhappy confrontation with someone's father or husband or brother, so just because you see an attractive girl on the beach does not mean she is automatically available for P4P its not Sosua beach.
When leaving Black Beards the taxi fee will be an additional $45 this you will pay to the driver when he drops you off. At the airport you will have to fill out the same forms you filled out when you entered the country but there is no additional exit fee.
I felt perfectly safe walking around the location and never had any fear in the area and believe it to be perfectly safe. My Spanish is practically none existent but I never had any problem at all as there are enough mongers who know enough Spanish or the locals will know enough English to help out. There are a good group of mongers at Black Beard and you will instantly make friends and have people to hang out with.
FINAL THOUGHTS:
I still think Black Beards is great and I am very thankful that it exists. If you like to fuck come to Black Beards, if you like to fuck a lot come to Black Beards faster, because basically that's what you do at Black Beards is fuck and that's what Black Beards is all about, fucking. Every monger should experience Black Beards at least once.

We all know that without the pussy, Sosua changes dynamics. But what are you going to replace it with? Moms walking around pushing strollers. Willie who is Dominican and used to be Deputy Mayor, who also ran Latinos will be opening a huge club any day now that will stretch from Rumba all the way to Classicos. Is he doing this for the soccer moms on vacation?
That was just an anti American rant, nothing more.

Thanks for the report Chris! You really don't have to tell us where you are at; many, but not all of us, can figure that stuff out.
I never been to BB, but then again, I'm old and can only fuck for so long. To me, it's like shooting a fish in a barrel, but there are so many fish in the barrel. I'm glad to hear that you had a great time!
Thanks for taking the time and reporting!
I hope I get the chance to go there soon!
I'm planning on my first trip for 2 or 3 weeks at the end of December so I have been hunting on Badoo and Cupid, I'm more into the novia thing than quantity so I figure I should have a pretty good idea of what I am getting into by the time I am there.
What I am hoping is someone can suggest a good place to get a webcam in Puerto Plata and an idea of what they cost for a decent one with microphone? Second can someone tell me what berda means? Can't figure some of the slang out to save my life.
And in the spirit of giving I found this girl on Badoo, I don't think I can put a link in but search for Katty La Chula or #01220956470. Cute 21 year old who offered to do anything I wanted for $2500 day and night plus she's happy to bring friends and has pics of them all, some very hot ones.
Thanks

Ah ok, like verdad, thanks man.
I have a girl that I have been talking to, if she doesn't ask me for anything in the next couple weeks then I am going to get her a webcam to make our chats more interesting. I figured it made more sense to send some cash for her to go get one instead of sending a cam from her and paying shipping and duty.

Having a good repore takes a little cash every now and then. If you have a good relationship with her may be it is worth it. When she asks for more then you want to give say no. It is that simple I have a couple of sweeties that are at my call. I send a gift every now and then. For me it is a great investment and I have no regrets. Having 20 something chicas providing good GFE is priceless. My next trip I have 3 non pros willing to fuck me all day long. I do not do casas any more. I have my own line up that I have personally vetted.

Sounds like we have the same idea about this stuff OldKool, I used to go to China a lot for work and got to the point where I had a couple steady girls that cost me nothing other than dinner (when I wanted the company and I billed it to work anyways) or a dress now and then.
It's 2 different girls Mani, the girl I am serious about is nonpro or hiding it well. The one who told me prices is a total pro, even lists the casa she works at on her Badoo profile. She said she will do anything, anal, swallow, bring friends, lesbo shows so I figured I'd share with the board in case someone wanted to try her out. She sent me nude pics then asked me to send some money every month LOL, I told her she has to earn it when I am there, told her keep me happy and you'll get lots.
I have 2 good girls I am talking to now, hopefully have a couple more before I go, throw in the odd hook up while I am there and it'll be a great trip. And as OldKool says, a small investment pays off, especially if she has never asked for anything. Plus it's a webcam, it's more for me than her LOL.
Quick question. Are the girls at Blackbeard's generally mulatto or black? From any photos shot at Blackbeard's I've seen so far, the lighter skin Latinos do not seem to be there.
[QUOTE=Exoticspirit;1326011]Quick question. Are the girls at Blackbeard's generally mulatto or black? From any photos shot at Blackbeard's I've seen so far, the lighter skin Latinos do not seem to be there.[/QUOTE]They are an assortment. Not sure how you are defining terms like mulatto and black. In most English speaking countries these days the word "black" is used to describe all persons of mixed African and European races regardless of their skin tones. This is not very useful inthe DR since nearly everyone is of mixed race, so the word "black" is not very descriptive.
In the DR, when words like "morena","india","canela","rubia" or "negrita" are used, they are more descriptive of skin tones even though persons of the same family may match different descriptors.
Most of the girls you would meet at BB would be in the canela (cinnamon) to morena (brown) spectrum.
If there were any "lighter skin Latinos", you probably wouldn't want to sleep with them, as they would be men.

I think anyone who is hung up on skin color would be better off visiting a different country.

Hey guys.
I'm going to be in Puerto Plata next week.
Anyone interested in hanging out?
Also is the area around Sea Breeze safe?
Everything should be withing walking distance right?
[QUOTE=The Mind Bender; 1327207]I'm going to be in Puerto Plata next week.
Anyone interested in hanging out?

Everything should be within walking distance, right?[/QUOTE]You don't seem to have done a lot research before your trip if you don't know which town you are staying in. Sea Breeze is in Sosua not Puerto Plata.
The rest is good news though. Sea Breeze is in the heart of Sosua and everything you need on a short first trip is within walking distance. It is very safe subject to the usual advice (don't get drunk, don't flash money or valuables, don't get invoved in disputes, don't let locals take you off the beaten track).
On later trips, or if this is a long stay, you may want to explore beyond the center of Sosua. Hell, you might even make it to Puerto Plata City!
There are always gringos around to show you the ropes. Do not put yourself in the hands of Dominicans! Two good meeting places are Rocky's Bar for late breakfast (ask the manager Rick to introduce you to reliable mongers) and Ruby's Bar on the beach mid-afternoons.
Have a good trip and read up more on the boards. You will save money and your precious holiday time by being more prepared. Any follow-ups I suggest you post in the Sosua section.

[QUOTE=Charles Pooter; 1326235]Very true, but what those familiar with the DR call a "lighter skinned latina" many American would call "black". As for the blondes, they are not what you would find in Northern Europe. They have a sort of tallowy color and most of them are dyed anyway.
I think anyone who is hung up on skin color would be better off visiting a different country.[/QUOTE]Yep. The DR has a very different cultural filter for race than the US. A chica who in the US would be a light skinned black girl because of her facial features might in the DR be considered a blanquita. If you are looking for more euro / indio latinas rather than mixed african ancestry you are better off in Columbia or central america.
Will be in DR mid October to early November. Thinking of spending a few nites at Blackbeards or Field of Dreams or both, at the beginning or end of this trip. How far in advance do I need to book the room online? Will they be booked up and is it too late if I reserve the room 2 weeks in advance?
sorry, duplicated post somehow.

Any idea how much is a taxi from Puerto Plata to the airport in Santiago? And how long is the drive?
The busees are inexpensive and consistent. Do a little research and you can save money and enjoy the ride.

When I drove from BB to the airport in March it took about 1 1/2 hours but it will all depend on traffic. If you hit heavy traffic in Santiago it could take much longer.
The bus is a good idea if you are not in a hurry to get to the airport. I assume you will have to take a taxi to the airport from the bus station.

Yes, I know it would be just easier to fly into POP, but the return flight will leave me stranded in LAX for one night, or require rental car or airport parking for 2 weeks.
Yes, I am getting ready for my first trip to DR this coming November. I am really looking forward to it. Thanks to so many posting here with advice, I am getting prepped properly.

(Don't forget that is how Field of Dreams operated for the first, and more successful, half of its existence under Dominican Billy. There were guys with hardcore working girls, semi-putas, non-putas, stag parties, married and courting couples, Dominicans on business travel, and one or two families, all co-existing amicably. There were no working girls available on site). But those murals won't help make them feel at ease, I must admit. Non-putas might be harder nuts to crack.
*I am not including its recent Renaissance under the Three Js which will be its golden years. If sustained.
Gentleman.
I've been working alot since I got back, so this report is a little late. However, I wanted to put it out anyway in case someone finds any info useful.
Day one.
Arrived at the airport, grabbed a cab and hit RUSA. I got 39. 05 per dollar. Hit la Sirena to get some things for the room. I checked western union and they were paying 39. 10. So next time I can skip RUSA. Hit the Hotel Lomar, my room was ready. 35 a night cash, no tax. FYI, later in the trip I walked into the Pureto Plata Beach Club and they are also 35 a night cash. Hotel Lomar is clean and safe, but basic. Its in a good location on the malecon. I tried to buy a phone at la Sirena, but it was 1000 pesos, I thought I could do better so I passed. The girl at the desk let me use her phone to call my american buddy who lives in PP. He picked me up an hour later and we hit a clothing store thats suppose to be a hot spot. I can't remember the name, but it was dead. We went back to la Sirena, where I met a hot hatian. Then on to dieciseis, which was also fairly dead. He dropped me off and I called the hatiana but she was a no show. So I ended up at club extravaganza, which I hear used to be called Enigima. I got a hot dominicana to go. 500 peso salida. I agreed to 2000 pesos for her. Probably could have gotten her for 1500. She was good! Complete GFE, un rushed. A little drama with the security because she didn't have her I'd.
Day two.
The desk clerk told me where to get a cheap phone. Everyone was talking about the 300 peso red phone, But the girl at the counter told me it was for dominicans only. I'm sure thats not true, but I needed a phone so I ended up paying appx 700 pesos plus 100 for minutes. So my american buddy wanted to take me somewhere. We ended up going to el Manatial in St Michaels I think it was. Its a water park where three rivers meet. Well, more like a collection of pools, not anything like an american water park. Anyway, there were some hot girls there, but they all looked young, so I passed. On the way back we stopped at a colmado and his wife introduced me to her friend. Good looking, seemed friendly. Ended up back at extravaganza. This time I got the light skinned girl that does the strip tease. Hot looking, but not a good in the cama. Quick BBBJ, as soon as I got it in she was asking if I was done. Those pretty faces always get me! LOL.
Day three.
My american buddy called and said his wifes friend wanted to meet, but I had plans. I hooked up with Charles Pooter and we went to FOD for the bikini contest. We had the wrong dates unfortunately. We werent the only ones, I ran into three guys I know from my July trip To BBs. Charles and I decided to head to Sousa. He showed me how to use the publico. For those who don't know, the publico is basiclly a route taxi. They fit six people in the car, two in the front and four in the back, at 45 pesos per person. So for the entire front seat you pay 90 pesos. This was a valuable lesson. A cab from Costambar to Sousa can be as high as 2000 pesos. So we get to Sousa and hit the beach. I thought the beach was pretty nice. As we passed Rubys, we ran into some friends of Charles. Charles is a funny guy, he and his buddy sparring back and forth was hilarous! I had asked to see Passions, so after a drink or two we headed off. We stopped in Ricks, where Charles introduced me to Rick. I've never stayed in Sousa, but when I do I"ll stay with Rick until I learn the ropes. We hit Passions and wow! Passions has hot girls! I didn't session, but I'll make a point of doing so my next time in Sousa. But I have to say, I didn't care for the way the girls were behind the counter. I like it when the seat in my lap and drink with me. We caught the publico back and Mr Pooter was kind enought to introduce me to a friend with whom I spent a very pleasant couple of hours. That night it was drinks up and down the Malecon. I went to el Furegon for a while. El Fuergon is a local dance spot. Some hot girls, but none paid me any attention. I think youd need time and spanish.
Day four.
I called the girl from the colmado in the morning. She wanted me to call back aroung noon. Walked the Malecon from the Lomar to el Barco resturant. I could not believe how bad it smelled. At parts I could look over and see garbage floating. The cleanest part seemed to be long beach. So I get back and call the girl. I thought she was coming, but she wants me to come and get her. So I shower and grab a moto, negotiate 200 pesos for two round trip. I get there and she doesn't want to leave, she wants to talk, and now she wants a cab, no moto. So I send the guy off, we talk, I meet her daughter, blah. Blah blan. So we grab a cab and go to the Lomar, now she wants a drink. So we go to Long Beach, We have three grandes and talk. It started off good, then it was "mi pais this, mi pais that". All of a sudden the DR is the best place in the world. I get hungry, I offer her lunch, she says "no, I cook my food for me and my daughter". Really? I wondering why she agreed to come. So after I eat, I ask her if she is coming to my room. She she says no, her brother is coming to get her. She gives me her facebook and email and off I go. My plan was to get a shower, grab a moto and go to FOD and get laid. As I walk in, the clerk tells me the guys downstairs are looking for me. I knock on their door, and theres a HOT young dominicana. They tell me they meet her at the beach and ask me if I want her. Hell yes! I tell her what I want offer 2000 pesos, probably should have said 1500. She accepts and I ask for her cedula. 19, lets go! Great session!
That night, drinks up and down the Malecon, Spent a couple of hours in Carribean Blue, I think it is. Ice cold beer for cheap, a / see good musica latina. The crowd was a little young. Ran into a couple of off duty BB girls, they spoke, gave me a hug and moved on. Went to Cristals. Plenty of hot girls but too expensive. Its crazy to see all those hot girls and like four guys. Youd think theyd get the picture. Ended up drinking at Andys on the Malecon, with a couple of good looking street walkers. Against my better judgement, I decided to take them both for 1000 pesos apiece. Got to the room, BBBJ, but the wanted more for the already negotiated lesbian show. No thanks. On girl kept spitting on the floor as she blew me! WTF! Fucked them both, nothing special. Then they ran through a half roll of toliet paper. Just wipping their lips and throwing it away and then getting more, Just being wasteful. Went back to extravaganza and got the first girl again. As we left the two street walkers were coming in. Another great performance with the first girl.
All in all a good trip, but not as easy as BBs. Lessons learned. I don't have time for semi pros, and no more street walkers! I'll be back 11/22 to 11/27. I'll give you a call Mr Pooter and treat you to lunch!
[QUOTE=Brother P;1332050]I hooked up with Charles Pooter and we went to FOD for the bikini contest. We had the wrong dates unfortunately.[/QUOTE]We didn't get the dates wrong. They cancelled, allegedly because Blackbeards Bikini Contest was on that afternoon. The ironic thing was that four guys who were staying at Blackbeards arrived because they wanted to get [u]away[/u] from the Bikini Contest. I know how they felt. I never want to see another one at BB, FoD or anywhere else.
Anyway, good to meet you and you certainly did a few different things from most quick trippers.
You are too polite to say so, but I suspect you only understood 60% of my chatter. Churchill's observation about two nations divided by a common language comes to mind. Please do your homework before our next meeting:

Very good and detailed report. Gave me some good insights into PP. One of the questions I did have is about"Plenty of hot girls but too expensive.

I am just asking, because I am a noob when it comes to DR, and I did just buy my frist ticket there for next month.

No, I didn't interview them. I did a session there in July. So I know the price structure. Its 3000 pesos for an hour onsite, and 150 american for all night at your place. The girl I had in July was HOT! She was also a good provider. The room was basic. Overall, I perfer having girls in my room. Talk a little, have a drink, then get to it. I guess I'm not a wham bam kinda guy. Also, at BBs 3000 pesos gets you a girl all night with multiple pops. Enjoy your trip and please, report back.

Reading that I may have helped inspiring others to come to the DR north coast is the greatest honor you could have made me, MonteQ.
I found mongering in Sosua a gratifying, even exhilarating experience.
Where I was expecting to find 2 neat categories of prostitutes, I encountered countless shades of gray.
Where I anticipated struggling with a corrupt society, I discovered a land with well-established traditions and a genuine sense of pride,
Where I feared dealing with a greedy and materialist culture, I found warm people with a deeply-rooted love for music, dance and fun.
So being told that I may have inspired others to follow my steps in discovering this land is the greatest compliment of all. I am on my way to a cupid date on my favorite waterhole on the Malecon, and I'll make sure I'll raise my first Presidente to you, and to all the anonymous voices on that board who made it possible for me as well,
Yours,
Sammy.

Just a warning. Yesterday a motoconcho driver and passenger who had stopped to make a turn were hit and killed by a cement truck, leaving their corpses looking like roadkill, I am told. Fortunately I was not an eyewitness to this.
I am told that if the driver has full insurance he will only have to spend 48 hours in jail, as the insurance will cover everything including the cost of the funerals. Not sure how accurate this information is.
I'm going to have to be more careful. I've gotten very comfortable with motos.

Can anybody recommend good car rental in sosua? ANy experiences.
I am not very concerned about the road security As I live on the south osf Spain which is a jungle as well so got used to it already.
There are many pro's and con's to renting a car and much has been posted. I rent at the airport and have had no problem with either Budget or Hertz.
What you guys think about the small local rental agencies?
Are they any good?

[QUOTE=Exoticspirit;1333340]How about from BBs to Sosua? What's the most cost effective but still practical way to do that?[/QUOTE]There isn't one. Blackbeards is a great place but one of the downsides is there is no cheap and practical way to get to anywhere else and back again after dark.
You either rent a car (which is expensive and has other downsides) or you use the notorious Costambar taxi mafia. You can do it by public transport cheaply, but it can take ages unless you are lucky with your connections and some mongers may not fancy finding themselves alone in the dark coming back at night.
Not sure why anyone would want to stay at Blackbeards and pay a premium for everything for the convenience of having it all on site, then get so bored you need to go to Sosua. If you are talking about a one-time trip into Sosua just to see what it is like, then bite the bullet and hire a cab, but it won't be cheap.
If you want to stay in a Blackbeards-type environment, but enjoy the freedom to get out and about to Puerto Plata, Costambar and all points between, very easily and cheaply 24/7, then stay at Field of Dreams instead. It's slightly cheaper, the rooms are slightly better, the management are more friendly, the food is much the same for the same price, the onsite chica service doesn't shut down for the night because some live onsite and are always available, and it is more acceptable to take in outside chicas. On the other hand, you won't have nearly as good a choice of onsite chicas. Depends what your priorities are but you cannot have it all for a bargain basement price.
Of course if you can find three or four other guys willing to share a taxi to Sosua and back your problem is solved. And there are often a few timid newbies there who would like to do that if in a group.

I meant to say "to Puerto Plata, Cabarete, and all points between" (which would of course include Sosua). In fact you can go a lot further, to Rio San Juan, without changing, but it would be a long and bumpy trip and possibly too crowded to be enjoyable.

[QUOTE=Szympans28; 1332913]What you guys think about the small local rental agencies?
Are they any good?[/QUOTE]I would stick to a company like Hertz that provides Casa del Conductor coverage. Many of the other insurers do not provide this, and it is a must for me.
[QUOTE=Charles Pooter;1331509]Should be enough to keep you amused for three nights. But if there aren't then find your own. There are probably more working girls in Puerto Plata than in Sosua. The city is nine times as big, after all. And there are ten times the number of semi-putas, by which I mean chicas who don't go out and about looking for paid sex, but are more than willing to go to a gringo's place for money given the chance. You don't get many like that in Sosua.[/QUOTE]Thanks. Any recommendations in Puerto Plata? I think Crystals is supposed to be good but expensive.
I only have 3 nites in Puerto Plata, so will not have time to check out more than a couple of places. So which ones? Crystals or some other places?
[QUOTE=Professor 1;1333649]I would stick to a company like Hertz that provides Casa del Conductor coverage.

Basically it means that instead of being taken straight to a Dominican jail in case of a moderately serious accident (someone hurt or major property damage) you are taken to a sort of motel where you have access to a phone, food, a toilet and (if you want) a choice of lawyers.
I have used Hertz and there very nice and competitive price was as long as you try to get the best price. I personally use Adventure Care rental and have used them 30 to 40 times. As far as cas del conductor I never purchased that. I fortunately never had any serious accidents when traveling.

My girl goes to an internet cafe and will masterbate for me, I love the internet. I have never met her only talked online. She has offered to find friends for me to fuck when I come to puerto plata. I love the DR
Hertz is very good and I will use the Casa del Conductor coverage next time. I would have used it sooner but did not know it was available. Thanks for that bit of new information.
I made a suggestion to Jeffery one of the Field of Dreams owners about a "Whats New" banner for their web site and it is up already. For those of us that know about FOD and the web site this should help draw attention to the many changes they keep making without having to search all over the site. There is also a quick survey you can take that enters you into a drawing.
Hey guys, I just came back from Cristals (I think that's how they spell it) and wanted to share my experience.
Before I start, just wanted to mention that this my first time to DR and I'm totally new to local mongering scene, so please be nice. Also English is not my first language, so. You know. Good thing that spell checker works in a browser.
My previous mongering experience is limited to korean and japanese girls (big fan!) but I wanted to try something different.
Anyway, back to Cristals. I'm staying at one of the Playa Dorada resorts so I went outside of the hotel where taxi drivers were hanging out. Was was kinda embarrassed to ask reception to get me a taxi. I know, I know, like I said. I'm new. So I was quoted $20 both ways and taxi driver will wait for me. I agreed and off we go. I arrived there at around 5 pm and first impression was the place is dead. But the moment I approached the bar I was immediately surrounded by five girls. They were smiling and showing their best sexy moves. One shorter girl was the most aggressive (umm, maybe it's not a right word, but you know what I mean) , she was grabbing my dick through pants and showing her boobs. She said her name was Chocolate. I kinda moved a bit away from her and tried to get better look at other girls. I asked what everyone name was. I chose Mecha, a cute looking one. Once I did that all the girls, except Chocolate went away.
I don't speak Spanish and Mecha didn't speak much English so Chocolate was translating. She said I have to pay bartender 3, 500 pesos. I said that's to much and also I was the only client there so I offered 2, 000. We were negotiating for about 5 min and finally Chocolate said it's up to the girl. Mecha said no. But I liked her and the cab was waiting outside so I agreed.
We went upstairs, to one of the small kinda dark rooms with a bed and a little couch. Mecha was nice, but with some restrictions and whole experience with her was more like business type transaction. What did I expect? Of course it was a business transaction. But I had some good times with asian girls, they do work really hard to please you. Anyway, after we were done, she said "My tip?". I gave her $5 US. I hate to be cheap but she didn't want to lower price in a first place. She clearly wasn't happy about the tip. I asked how much she expected. She said at least $20 US. I said no. At that point I just wanted to leave that place and never come back.
So, there you go guys, unfortunately my first experience was not as good as expected. But I'm really easy going guy, and I did get laid today, so I'm happy. I'm in PP till October 27 so there is still time to go other places (Sosua, maybe?). If you have any comments or suggestions feel free to post here or send me a PM.

Quote from FOD sucks D R 1.
Field of Dreams in Puerto Plata is the worst place to go for adult entertainment. A friend and I went there a few days ago and paid the House for a couple of the girls. After we paid the house and enjoyed some time with the girls, the girl demanded more money. We then gave the girl more money and left.
A few days later we returned to Field of Dreams and one of the owners immediately told us we had to leave. One of the girls from the day before told the owner that we literally beat her up and that we didn't pay for our time before. This is not the type of situation you ever want to be put into, especially in a foreign Country. Some trashy **** prositute makes up a lie and the owners actually took the prositutes side. Keep in mind, my friend and I do not speak spanish, so it was very uncomfortable and the language barrier was difficult. I would stay clear of this place and go to Sosua, where you'll find Passions, CMP or bar 59.
Oh, and on a final note. Field of Dreams has been under new lease, since Sept. Of 2012. One of the losers who leases the place actually married one of the prostitutes!

FYI will be back from Oct 23 thur Nov 2. Anyway we go to the condo I want to heat things up, touching watching them get into to it, They start to take turns on me while one takes a shower. Okay after the first girl comes out the shower I'm so ready I can't wait for her friend to come out. I have her spread her legs so I can give The Pussy Test. Hey I don't care how fine she is if it don't smell right down there it's over. When she opened her legs I see a tanpax or tampon still up her pussy. I said What The Fuck is This! She jumps out the bed runs to the bathroom comes back and says What? Papi What? Then the other girls says No papi she have no tampon see look. Now fellas maybe if they would have beem honest with me they may of had a chance. Instead of taking me for a fucking asshole. But they persisted and fucked up the whole mood. My dick wasn't feeling it, I said okay get fucking dressed I'm taking you both back to passion and let Peter know you getting into bed with customers with tampons in your pussy. That was their last chance to be honest but they stuck to the now you see it now you don't so it was never there. I get back to Passions told Peter the whole story he had the coolness of a Godfather Mafioso, says What you want to do? Do you want your money back or two other girls. Hey he was so cool and not what I expected I had to take a min and figure out what I really wanted LOL I didn't see anyone one else or maybe it was just me so I took my money went to the casino doubled it and took two out of CMP, But I'm a passion fan for life because of Peter. Have beem back since will be there for Halloween holla at me will be dressed as Doctor Feel Good.

There are lots of little clues that these guys were total newbies who don't know shit. How many mongers here ever refer to the DR as a "foreign country" or to the "language barrier"? For one thing you do not pay the management at FoD for the chicas. The chicas are self-employed and you pay them directly whatever price you negotiate. Usual maximum is same as Blackbeards but if things are quiet you can negotiate less. My guess is the guys paid for short-time use of the room and thought that included the chica. It might be obvious to us it wouldn't but if these guys were clueless they might have thought it did, then they started getting rough when the chicas asked for payment.
The other thing is, if they were so badly treated and have such a high opinion of Passions, CMP, or bar59, why did they want to return to Field of Dreams? Only reason I can think of is they were staying at Playa Dorada and didn't know how to get around to other places. They are obviously newbies or they wouldn't have posted their complaints on DR1 rather than here or a board like this. How is that going to hurt FoD's reputation? They wouldn't get much sympathy from DR1 posters for being short-changed in a brothel.
I like Field of Dreams because it is a convenient place to meet my friends from Sosua. The environment is the best on the North Coast and bar prices are fair. That's all I need. I live here so I have no interest in staying there or taking out a chica. So I hope it stays open though it will be a hard trick to pull off. If reports like the one quoted by Hillybilly keep the dumbass trouble-makers away I will be only too happy. Let them all go to CMP. They will fit in great there.

So, I am sitting at one of the tables having dinner last night when 2 guys came into the bar and ordered a couple of drinks. The atmosphere was relaxed but happy at the time. The guys were a bit loud, but who isn't from time to time? One of my girls immediatly got very upset and even began to cry. I asked her what was wrong. My papasan and one of my other partners joined in the explanation of what had happened a couple of night earlier.
Aparently these same 2 guys had been in and were doing some drinking. They decided to take a couple of girls. One guy went to a room the other to the jacuzzi. Both guys paid the house for the room / jacuzzi. The guy that took the room paid his girl without incident and all was fine. However, the guy that went for a BJ in the jacuzzi did not want to pay. He finally offered her 100 pesos, but the girl was already frustrated with him and said forget the money just don't expect anything from any girl here ever again. At that point the guy slapped her in the face so hard it left a hand print.
Fast forward back to last night. They are here and the girl is upset. After hearing what had happened from the girl, the papasan, and one of my partners. I personally went over to the 2 guys and said it would probably be best if they left. They immediately got very loud and argumentative. They damanded their money back for the 2 beers they had ordered even. We said fine, and I grabbed the 2 full beers and poured them out right in front of them just to sink the point in. Gave them their beer money back and said now it is time to leave. Again, they became argumentative. One said "do you really think I would come here and use a girl and not pay her?". So I said."well. Did you pay her?" He responded. No I did not, she would not even take the 100 pesos I offered her. I say, so. You did not pay her, AND you offered her an insulting amount of money? I talk them that we did not want to argue, we did not even want to talk about the situation any more. Please leave and do not come back.
That was the end of the situation. Agree or don't. I need the girls, and they need me. We have to support and protect each other. Please understand, there have been situation (several from time to time) that I am NOT on the girls side. I have had to throw girls out too. But if a guy comes in and does not want to pay. Then becomes physically abusive. Yeah. You got to go.
Hope this clears things up.
I am waiting for the other side of the story. The truth is always some place in the middle and things are not adding up for me. All of the FOD owners speak English (and few other languages) and Spanish well enough to be able to resolve any issue that may arise at any time. They collect money for rooms, food and drinks not for the girls. Each girl sets their own price at rates very much in line with BB's. That said there may be an up sell for things like girl on girl, anal etc.
Another thing that does not add up is why anyone would return if they in fact had treated the girls so poorly or did not pay them the agreed upon amount the next day. The guys would have to know that the girls would say something to the owners and to each other.
I have witnessed a couple of times at BB's when two or more guys that did not speak Spanish and the girls did not speak the guys language had problems at the end of a session because the guys were drunk or things were not agreed upon first. Things like sharing girls, a lesbian show or if the session got to rough could be reasons for accusations to have been made by the girls to the owners. We were not there so one can only guess what really took place.
Again something is off regarding the entire situation. Perhaps one of the owners can shed some light on what went down?

good point.
case in point, there is local spot in sdq i didn't care for that much however talent is great but are not use to foreign clientele (assumption). girls normally flock around the newbie when he walks in the door. now back to the place, drinks are nornal price. the reason i stayed was for my waitress. she didn't demand a tip as usually when they hear my accent.
i took her upstairs twice on two separate days for 2k originally agreed on two pops in 1 hour. both time were over 2 hours. the security had to yell upstairs and check on her.
my point is when i asked her where i could take a [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord140][CodeWord140][/url] her eyes got big and she began slowly shaking her head. she walked me there, the smell was epic, she opened the door to a room and ran back to the bedroom. it was like a crime scene in there. dead ca shower looked like it was part of the amazon with plants and algae throughout.
the toilet was in the center of the floor dust and dirt abound. turdes were steaming. needless to say i was in a biohazard toxic dump.
i thought were does she [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord134][CodeWord134][/url] and wash her ass. what i concluded is probably she lived close and / or there is somewhere close where them might clean up. she was very clean no smell great personality.

At that point the guy slapped her in the face so hard it left a hand print.
Fast forward back to last night. They are here and the girl is upset. After hearing what had happened from the girl, the papasan, and one of my partners. I personally went over to the 2 guys and said it would probably be best if they left. They immediately got very loud and argumentative. They damanded their money back for the 2 beers they had ordered even. We said fine, and I grabbed the 2 full beers and poured them out right in front of them just to sink the point in. Gave them their beer money back and said now it is time to leave. Again, they became argumentative. One said "do you really think I would come here and use a girl and not pay her?". So I said."well. Did you pay her?" He responded. No I did not, she would not even take the 100 pesos I offered her. I say, so. You did not pay her, AND you offered her an insulting amount of money? I talk them that we did not want to argue, we did not even want to talk about the situation any more. Please leave and do not come back.
That was the end of the situation. Agree or don't. I need the girls, and they need me. We have to support and protect each other. Please understand, there have been situation (several from time to time) that I am NOT on the girls side. I have had to throw girls out too. But if a guy comes in and does not want to pay. Then becomes physically abusive. Yeah. You got to go.
Hope this clears things up.
[QUOTE=Exoticspirit;1337756]Just want to be sure since DR will be a new destination for me. For Passions, Blackbeard's, even the Sosua bar girls, is it the norm for both the girl and ourself to shower once we get into a room before the real fun starts? How often do we shower together with the girl? Just thought that I would ask since not all places involve showering beforehand (and after in the room). A good example is Tijuana.[/QUOTE]There is no hard and fast rule, though at Passions they want you to shower first, as I recall. If one or both are hot and sweaty, then showers before and after are a good idea. If she has been in a bar setting, a shower may help to get rid of any odor of smoke on her hair or skin. I would never discourage her from taking a shower if she needs one. You may have showered just before meeting her, and not feel the need to repeat.
She may want you to take a shower, especially prior to delivery of a blow job.
You can shower together, but I prefer to let her do whatever she has to do in privacy-however don't leave her out of sight with your valuables while you are in the shower.
Do you really want to have sex with someone without showering?

The girls I picked up on the strip, all showered, but none asked me to.
I was just in sosua on oct 5-7' just Friday and Saturday all day left Sunday. I had a total of 11 women during that time and all showered, its a good thing. Stayed at terra Linda, great spot. Really close to the action.

OK, guys. Here is my second report from PP. After my fiasco at Cristals (see my report below) , I wanted to try other options
[url]http://www.internationalsexguide.info/forum/showthread.php?504-Puerto-Plata&p=1337435#post1337435[/url]
One place is very close to the hotel I'm staying is Field of Dreams, so I said to myself : "let's go there". Also today is Wednesday and they have swimsuit competition. I wanted to see girls in bikinis but at the same time I was kinda hesitating because I thought there will be too many guys, and I don't want to end up competing for the girls. Man, was I wrong.
Anyway, still too shy to ask hotel reception for a cab to FOD, since I am sure everybody knows what kind of place I'm going to, so instead I went outside of the hotel to get a cab myself. Get into the car, taxi driver says name Elias, we talk, very nice guy, but he is not sure where FOD is, so other drivers give him directions. He says it's going to be 300 pesos, I agree and off we go.
Arrived at FOD around 5 pm, Elias wants to go in with me to check the place. Kinda weird, but that's okay with me. So we're going inside and the place seems offley quiet. What's up with that? Did I miss swimsuit event? I see groups of girls here and there, so I smile, say "Hola, comestas?" and I'm going to the bar. Got a drink and trying to see what's going on. I see lot's of girls around a table next to the pool so I am going there. Meanwhile, Elias has already satisfied his curiosity and goes back. He gives me his cell number and asks me call back when I need a taxi. OK, sure.
So I stand close to the table where about twenty girls gathered around, they talk about something in Spanish I don't understand. There is older woman, her name is Maria, probably mamasan, so I ask her what happened to swimsuit event. She said all the girls are ready but there was no one here to watch. I said, ah okay. And thinking to myself, wow, that's nice! I can have any girl I want! I see couple other guys hanging out at the pool and at the bar, I say hello. Introduce myself. Everybody is so friendly. So I just keep enjoying my drink and looking at the girls. What I liked is that no girl was coming on to me as opposed to Cristals. They were just smiling and looking at me, I felt really relaxed and I was able to make my choice without any pressure.
I see a cute, younger looking girl across the table, and I like her but I'm not sure how to approach her because she is surrounded by other girls. Feel kinda awkward to get her from the crowd, so I'm trying to get eye contact with her but she is not really looking at me. Oh well. Then I notice another girl, she stands next to me, also cute, so I ask her name, she says "Billy". I ask if she wants have a drink, she says yes, and we're going to the bar. She's having a beer, and then I ask her about the price. She can speak English a bit, so she asks "price for the room?". I said no, I know how much is the room, what is your price? She says 1, 600. I said OK.
Now, I have to say I'm not "wham bam thank you madam" kinda guy, I like to get to know a girl a little before we're going to the room. So we're hanging out at the bar, I'm not in a rush, neither is she because not many customers around. Then her friend joins, she orders fried chicken with fries so the girls are sharing the meal and offer me to have some. I'm not really hungry, so I'm just having some fries. They share a beer I bought for Billy, so I ordered one more for her friend. Billy introduces me to her, her name is Marlenis, not really my type, but she has outgoing personality and likes to dance. Music is playing at the bar, Marlenis' showing off her sexy moves, I can't resist and we start dancing. Billy is looking at us, so I ask if she wants to dance, but she is too shy. I'm ordering one more round of drinks, Marlenis and I keep dancing and we're having a good time. Now it's time to go to the room. I pay 800 pesos at the bar. Billy says that her friend can join us for another 1, 600 if I want. Wow, I didn't expect threesome tonight but I'm thinking, three of us seems like are having good time, why not to continue in the bedroom.
So we're going to one of the rooms. What a difference comparing to Cristals! It's a bigger room, with king size bed, flat screen TV and, most importantly, a shower! The TV is on, and it's on a porn channel. Neither I, nor the girls like it so we're trying to switch to a music channel. While Marlenis is doing channel surfing, Billy and I are taking shower. Marlenis coundn't any good music on TV, so Billy plays music on her phone. Marlenis goes to shower and 5 minutes later joins us in a bed.
OK, guys I'm sure you want to hear play-by-play of what happened next, but I just want to say I had great time (and it wasn't a first threesome for me). Both girls were amazing, I can tell they were enjoying themselves. And if they were faking it, they deserve an Oscar for the performance. The only thing that slowed me down is I had to change condoms when I was switching between girls. But I understand, girls want to play it safe and I respect that.
Overall, it was a great experience. After we finished, we took shower again and went to the bar for more drinks and dancing. I took pictures of both girls with my iphone and tried to upload here but it failed. Sorry guys, I'm new at this. Maybe next time when I figure it out.
I have to say, I'm big fan of FOD now. Can't wait to go back!

-Drambuiee[/QUOTE]Drambuiee,
All I can say is that aside from the kind words and the positive review, what you saw is what you will ALWAYS get at the Field of Dreams. Or FOD as we are affectionately known. The new management team that took over in May 2012 is comprised of a group of lifelong friends from Canada who elected to manage the resort for the FUN of being there and not necessarily as a potential cash grab. We have worked very hard over the last 4 months building up a dedicated clientele and are trying our best to find, train and educated the best looking chicas possible so that we can provide the best adult vacation destination on the North Coast. Sometimes, our scheduled events are not always what we would like them to be. Especially during the off season. Due to a low turn out. BUT. As any guest who has stayed with us during a slow period can attest to. The advantages of being one of a few guys with 20 hot and horny and hungry chicas around can be a HUGE advantage. So. Please do return and see what we have planned for the future. At the FOD. We are completely dedicated to making the resort THE destination for mongers on the North Coast of the Dominican Republic.
Was in POP in August, and nearby, so popped in to check out FOD.
Physically, the place has always been well-maintained, and remains so.
One of the owners gave me a quick tour, but I had been a guest back when Bill Lane was managing it,
So it was mostly just the new murals I noticed.
The girls seemed to me, to be fairly young (19-20) though looks can be deceiving, and still mostly slim,
So the beer and lifestyle were not yet taking a toll.
Ran into a chica I recalled from several years ago at BB (about 26 yrs old) and got a ST room for 20 bucks.
Had a nice session and left with a favorable impression.
Most of all, the owners and associates seemed to be dead serious in offering excellent service.
I offer the same advice as at BBs. Reach an understanding on what and how much BEFORE you go to the room,
For both yours and the chica's sake. Ask the Mamasan, Maria, or get a girl to translate.
If you have a dispute, calmly take it to the management. There is absolutlely NO excuse for getting violent or nasty with a chica.
The LEAST that can happen is none of them will want anything to do with you.
Consider yourself lucky you didn't have a talk with a Dominican cop. Could probably extort a huge bribe out if you.
I recommend FOD as a more laid-back version of BB.
Both offer good value for the money, and good places for any gringo new (or not) to the Road and looking for a good time.
Suerte,
Yanqui69

Jeffrey[/QUOTE]Hi Phaedrus.
I appreciate your posting here and I was hoping you could answers some questions about FOD.
I've been to Sosua (as well as Santiago and SDQ) a few times and I like it. However, I was thinking of checking out FODs just for variety's sake.
How far are you from Sosua? Are you in or very close to P. Plata? Also, do you have girls on-site or is it more bring your own?
I've been reading this site for quite awhile now and I can never get a good handle on where FOD and BB's are and if they're worth checking out.
Thanks
Old kool is on the move very soon. I have some non pros lined up but FOD is on my bucket list. Looking at a Monday or Tuesday stay. Will there be good action. I enjoy dancing and screwing. Will I be happy. Can I got a room upgrade or any perks for good PR. I have a small following on the board.

Thank you for the opportunity to answer your questions on ISG as they might be read by others who are equally interested and uninformed. By far the best place to get all the information that anyone could ever need, as well as photos, rates, events and a comprehensive FAQ's page, is our web site located at: [url]http://fieldofdreamsadultresort.com.[/url]
In response to your questions in the order that they were asked and in point form:
- The FOD (Field of Dreams) is located directly across from the employees' entrance to Playa Dorada, a mere 20 minutes or so from Sosua. As we are actually situated east of Puerto Plata (on the Sosua side) there is no danger of inadvertently being stuck in local traffic. Our sign stands directly on the main road and we are very easy to find.
- We always have a good selection of chicas on site (about 15 to 20) and unlike many other resorts of our kind, we welcome anyone that you care to bring with you.
- BB's is located on the far west side of Puerto Plata in the residential community of Costambar and we are situated on the east side of Puerto Plata before you actually hit the city coming from the airport. Each has its own benefits geographically with the Field of Dreams being right across the street from Plata Dorada with its Robert Trent Jones Sr. Designed golf course and small shopping mall with restaurants and bars.

I received the following email (edited somewhat) a little while back from one of the board members (polyorchid) who visited the DR in August the first time and was staying in Cabarete. He had rented a motorbike. A fun thing to do in a tropical island one would think.
Just wanted to forward this so guys are aware of the risks of a two-wheeler. This friend has had a close call and we all hope he gets better with each passing day.
Thanks.
[i]Saturday, October 13, 2012 8:34 PM.
I was in a major motorcycle accident on Ocotber 1. I was turning left in Cabarete and a car passed and broadsided me at about 45 mph. I was unconscious for an hour and have very blurred vision and dizziness.
I was in Sosua hospital for several days but am now back in USA. The docs have given me prism'd lenses on my glasses to correct dobule bision. They feel it may right itself within six monthS. If it doesn't, they will do surgery to crrect it. A routine operation, they tell me.
I'm in USA, recuperating. Can't walk very well, also have cracked ribs. Asi es la vida.
Later[/i]

Field of Dreams will be closed this Saturday (27 Oct) afternoon for a private party. Only invited guests will be admitted (plus, of course, anyone already booked into the hotel and their guests.)
One of these parties was arranged three months ago and it was a great success. As far as I know, only one ISG member attended, Doker44, and he gave it a review here: post #6313 in this Puerto Plata section.
http://www.internationalsexguide.info/forum/showthread.php?504-Puerto-Plata&p=1302648&viewfull=1#post1302648
Admission is 500 pesos and all this money is shared among the putas present who guarantee to go at least topless. Last time about half stripped off completely. This ensures that any puta who does not pull a client at least gets food and transport money for attending and helps to keep them in a good mood. If a guy gives you a ride chip in for his gas money.
Normal bar and food prices apply. Bar prices are reasonable at FoD.
This is a great opportunity for anyone who has not visited FoD to see it at its best and also for anyone new to the North Coast to meet a lot of other mongers in a safe and friendly environment.
Over 20 guys have already promised to attend. I imagine the final total will be nearer the 30 we had last time, though not all stayed all the afternoon. There were about 25 chicas present last time.
Last time was hot and sunny all afternoon. This time we may get some showers but there are plenty of covered areas and they won't spoil the fun.
If you would like to come, make your own way there or turn up at Rocky's Bar at 1. 00pm. Some guys will have spare seats in their cars and the rest will walk to the publico stand and commission dedicated publicos to take you to the inner gate at Field of Dreams. If four guys share a publico instead of the usual 6 it should cost 100 pesos each.
[b]This is a Private Party for invited guests only. If you wish to attend you must PM me by Friday afternoon latest so that I can notify the organizers, otherwise you will not be admitted. Read Doker44's post cited above about this. [/b]
The other reason for prior notice is so that the bar can start a tab in your name (real name, nickname, ISG handle, or whatever). Of course, you are welcome to pay as you go (like I always do) but a tab is handy if you want drinks sent to the pool or to a room.
I hope one or two of you can make it and look forward to meeting you there.
I have a friend who is coming. It is his first trip speaks no spanish.

As a PADI certified diver myself, I can refer your to a very good organization that can handle all of your dive needs. Notify me in advance of when you would like to come to the FOD and we'll work out a good day for you to dive and what individual needs you have (do you need all equipment. Are you bringing your own regulator. Etc.).

I will be in DR in Feb. I will be staying at BB with a group of friends for one week. I will be in town either a week before or a week after the gathering with me friends. I will most likely be staying at FOD for a few days. I am not sure where I will be staying the rest of the time yet. I will not know until I get my vacation schedule for next year. I too would like to do a day or two of diving. Any info would be a great help.

JJ.[/QUOTE]I'm already booked for Blackbeard's in November and they said they are no longer hooking up with scuba operators as tours. So I'll have to wait until I get over to Sosua later in my trip and use one of the local operators in town for diving.
I was at BB last Feb with this same group of friends. While I was there I tried to get over to Sosua through BB. They said the dive shop would only arrange it if there were enough people interested in the day trip. The only other options were to take a taxi or public transportation. I passed.
This next trip I will have more time in DR. Was even thinking of staying a few days in Sosua. I know there is a dive shop there. I was thinking maybe there was something closer to BB.
Let me know how you do if you do make it diving.

How does FOD compare to Charli's. I used to go to Viking, but they closed for a number of reasons and have not been back since. Want to make a trip down to the DR in January and looking for some advice.

FOD and BB are far more economical and better value for the money compared to the more high-budget places.
Such places tried to sell exclusivity, but overpaying is not a selling point in my book.
I acknowledge I never went to places like Vikings, etc. Due to the prices. I prefer Dominican women to the Europeans these places often imported.
Both FOD-BB have good amenities. BB has a larger jacuzzi, and I think, a point higher on the girl-looks scores.
FOD chicas seem slightly younger, and a little more "natural" (a little less makeup and dressed more casually).
You could flip a coin, as both are very similar in quality.
BB is more secluded in Costambar, FOD is more central, being across from Playa Dorada, halfway between Puerto Plata and airport / Sosua.

I would say Blackbeards is nearer in style to the places you mention, as most guys go there to enjoy the in-house chicas only, of which they have a better selection than Field of Dreams, though a bit too "professional" for my personal taste. It is basically just a brothel.
Field of Dreams is better for those who want to venture out and find their own chicas, possibly semi-pros, but you will need some Spanish for this. It is not as good a brothel as Blackbeards but is also a motel for those not primarily interested in the in-house chicas. It is cheap, quick, and easy to get to Sosua from Field of Dreams. But if you liked Vikings you might not be interested in Sosua anyway.

The place is great do not get me wrong. You would have way more variety in Sosua. 3 or4 days in BB then head to Sosua. You have a beach, casino and all the women you could ask for. Not to mention many Canadians. Instead of a hotel Brothel. You have a small town that is a brothel. Your biggest problem will be running out of leche.

Anyone who states that they do not like any of the talent at the Field of Dreams has not been there lately. We have been importing new girls on a regular basis and have a new face or two every week. Something that we will continue to do throughout the year. By rotating our stock of talent we can assure everyone that no matter what your taste, you will find at least one or two chicas who fit your specific needs. I suggest to anyone who questions the quality of our inventory to come on down and at least take a quick look. I promise you that you will be surprised at the changes over the last month or two.

It depends what sort of chicas you are looking for and how much you want to spend (not just paying them but on taxis, restaurants, drinks, etc). Very expensive to take girls out of Cristal. Most mongers who know what they are doing arrange to meet outside their working hours, but be aware only a minority at Cristal have much freedom in the daytime as the rest are like indented labor.
For professional putas there are several bars with working girls but the standard is generally low, certainly no better than Field of Dreams or Blackbeards because the same girls rotate round all these places over the months and years) , but you can usually find at least one diamond in the rough.
For semi-pros (by which I mean chicas who don't venture out in the evenings to find paying clients but won't turn down your cash if they like you) there are several bars your side of the city along Avenida Luis Ginebra, of which the most frequented is El Furgon and, if you can dance the local dances (bachata and merengue) a number of dance-halls on the opposite (western) side of the city.
For non-pros, the same bars and dance-halls in the evening, plus public places in the daytime like Parque Central, the Malecon, and the big shopping stores like La Sirena and Jimenez. Hard to pick-up non-pros and even harder to get them back to Field of Dreams unless you have at least some of the following advantages: young (under 35) , good-looking, smartly dressed (or what Dominicans consider that) , good Spanish, nice car, big spender.
Hillybilly69 always works the tourist spots and it works for him, but I have always heard that the chicas there are either too picky or too demanding. That would make sense as they have a captive market of tourists who are frightened to venture away from the campus and don't know shit so they think if they pick up a woman under 35 for US$100 they have got a bargain.
If you have to resort to asking a local tout to find you chicas you are sinking pretty low as a monger. I would stay as far away from that scum as possible. You will just end up paying double for what you could find yourself for nothing, and it could be physically dangerous if he takes you anywhere off the beaten track.
Finally, if all else fails, you are only a 25 minute and US$1 ride away from Sosua. (That is one of Field of Dreams' advantages over Blackbeards). I spent a total of five months at the old Field of Dreams when it had no in-house chicas. At first I would regularly go to Sosua at night to find women and meet my friends but by later trips I knew my way round the local area and have had little to do with full-time putas or Sosua since those early days.
Pooter roadway disco the dozen or so times I have been there I have been the only gringo there in between all dominican chics. I never bothered correcting your lost brother Jaosousa about the discos there because I let you guys take your turns argueing.LOL If Henry can't walk the beach and pick up chics this weekend I
agree he should take a direct bus to Santo Domingo and start giving out Bebe shirts and scooters to mediocre looking chicas.

It is probably easier and more practical to run down to Sosua than to hunt for chicas in Puerto Plata, more so since many chicas from Puerto Plata will go down to Sosua at night to look for a man. Of course you could always try to intercept them by hunting at the taxi stand outside the public hospital where the night taxis to Sosua depart, but I think it would make more sense just to go to Sosua. If you have decent Spanish you can wander about anywhere in the day time and smile at any woman who takes your fancy and see if they respond. Helps if you are reasonably well dressed and prosperous looking. Car a definite plus.

Success depends even more on who the girl is, most likely. Rich & educated girls take a lot more work than poor one. Pretty & slim & light skin harder. Younger definitely harder (except some gullible teens maybe). You get a big bonus with single mums though.
Harder of all is to know when to go for a girl's heart, or when to go for her lust, or when to go for her cupidity. So much about timing.
Enjoying every minute of it, so far. Will report back in a few days of course.

[QUOTE=HenryV;1344428]Also, how far is it to Sosua, in case I get bored at Blackbeards. They told me at Blackbeards it a 5 minute cab ride.[/QUOTE]Yes, about 5 minutes with a cautious driver. Other options to relieve boredom would be Santiago (10 minutes) and Santo Domingo (15 minutes). If you have 30 minutes to spare you could pop over to Cuba.
Just joking. I think you must have misunderstood because I don't believe Blackbeards would have told you any such thing. Sosua is 35 minutes by cab and it is an expensive ride. You could get two ST chicas for the return taxi fare.
Why are you staying somewhere where you think you might get bored even before you arrive? If you are the claustrophobic type you would be better staying at Field of Dreams. Much easier, cheaper and quicker to get off campus to Sosua, Puerto Plata and other places. Or if you are used to Pattaya, you might be happier staying in Sosua itself. Only 1% as many women as Pattaya, but still ten times as many as there are at Blackbeards or Field of Dreams.
There is another guy currently posting called Henry R (which is how Henry V would have signed his name). I got you two confused for a moment.

I always spend a couple days in BB and a few in Sosua. I personally like the beach in Cabarete so I usually rent a condo in Cabarete but I always rent a car. So I either pick something up in Cabarete or drive to Sosua which is like 15 minutes and grab something there. BB is a great safe place. Very little can go wrong there and staff and guest are usually a lot of fun. Sosua can be a pain the ass if your not on your game.

I'm not much of a drinker so I'm probably not going to spend much time in the bar in between girls.
If the pool water is not too cold, then I'll probably do some laps in the mornings and then spend the rest of the time with a good book. That's why I'm spending only 2 nights there. It will be the quiet nights too (Sunday and Monday).
There is a casino nearby, you would have to take a cab. I also took a chica and did a atv adventure which was really alot of fun. They pick you up right at bb, its a real fun time. The pool water will definitely not be cold unless it rains a lot. Theres also a pool table. The girls are all around the place so you won't have to sit around the bar. Also the ocean / beach is only a short walk. I also like to take a girl out at night to dinner instead of hanging at BB. They enjoy getting out of there for awhile.

I'm a diver so at least when I go to Sosua, I'll be able to spend a morning or afternoon in the ocean. I'm not much of a drinker so I'm probably not going to spend much time in the bar in between girls.

It got to a point that I was fucking to kill time and it became work very soon. There is a great beach nearby but that's it. I rented a car and made my way to sousa which is way more fun. Now I don't even bother o go back to BB.
I was thinking about nice hotel or Guest House but not AI and also chica friendly. Something like for example terra linda but inn PP.

Good info from a resident living the retiree's dream.
[QUOTE=Charles Pooter; 1343624]All the information has been posted on this forum, some of it several times. But I agree the 'search' function doesn't work very well with this software, which is used by several forums I visit.
It depends what sort of chicas you are looking for and how much you want to spend (not just paying them but on taxis, restaurants, drinks, etc). Very expensive to take girls out of Cristal. Most mongers who know what they are doing arrange to meet outside their working hours, but be aware only a minority at Cristal have much freedom in the daytime as the rest are like indented labor.
For professional putas there are several bars with working girls but the standard is generally low, certainly no better than Field of Dreams or Blackbeards because the same girls rotate round all these places over the months and years) , but you can usually find at least one diamond in the rough.
For semi-pros (by which I mean chicas who don't venture out in the evenings to find paying clients but won't turn down your cash if they like you) there are several bars your side of the city along Avenida Luis Ginebra, of which the most frequented is El Furgon and, if you can dance the local dances (bachata and merengue) a number of dance-halls on the opposite (western) side of the city.
For non-pros, the same bars and dance-halls in the evening, plus public places in the daytime like Parque Central, the Malecon, and the big shopping stores like La Sirena and Jimenez. Hard to pick-up non-pros and even harder to get them back to Field of Dreams unless you have at least some of the following advantages: young (under 35) , good-looking, smartly dressed (or what Dominicans consider that) , good Spanish, nice car, big spender.
Hillybilly69 always works the tourist spots and it works for him, but I have always heard that the chicas there are either too picky or too demanding. That would make sense as they have a captive market of tourists who are frightened to venture away from the campus and don't know shit so they think if they pick up a woman under 35 for US$100 they have got a bargain.
If you have to resort to asking a local tout to find you chicas you are sinking pretty low as a monger. I would stay as far away from that scum as possible. You will just end up paying double for what you could find yourself for nothing, and it could be physically dangerous if he takes you anywhere off the beaten track.
Finally, if all else fails, you are only a 25 minute and US$1 ride away from Sosua. (That is one of Field of Dreams' advantages over Blackbeards). I spent a total of five months at the old Field of Dreams when it had no in-house chicas. At first I would regularly go to Sosua at night to find women and meet my friends but by later trips I knew my way round the local area and have had little to do with full-time putas or Sosua since those early days.[/QUOTE]

Anybody could give me an idea about nice, girlfriendly, maybe litlle upscale hotel / resort in puerto plata?[/QUOTE]Lomar is probably your best bet or you can stay at Puerto Plata Beach Club where the prices have come down recently, I believe. Neither is very upscale in terms of the rooms, but Lomar is well situated opposite a public beach and close to everything. Beach Club rooms are a bit nicer and has nice pool and landscaped grounds. The downside is that neither have much in the way of onsite restaurants, so you probably need to get food elsewhere. I don't know of anything else in the city that matches the description upscale, and at least both of these are beachfront properties, which is generally considered worth something. Portofino in Long Beach is another possibility. Not actually on the beach (though not far away) and no views. Has good restaurant and small pool. Rooms nothing to get excited about though. You could stay at Beach Club and eat at Portofino.

All the places you list are one step down from that. There is no gringo-standard chica-friendly hotel in Pto Pta city. The nearest would be Field of Dreams which is a couple of miles outside, but very cheap and easy to get into town.

If he wants to eat "slightly upscale" as well there are better restaurants than Portofino, though more expensive (La Tarrappa, Las Palmas, or Taste).

Maybe Mr Enternational means that at Blackbeards there is a separate area set aside for dining whereas at Field of Dreams diners have to sit in one or other of the two areas with tables, one near the bar, the other under the pergola.

Not sure how fucking became work, odd comment, if your not fucking in Sousa what are you doing that is so exciting and by the way Sousa is pretty calm during the day.
I agree BB is boring after 2 days. You have all dedicated putas. Sosua has variety and numbers. Variety is all types of women full time pros and girls week end tricking. It is a different experience in my opinion. Most of the time the girls at BB seem bored and disinterested. In sosua you have the illusion of hunting. BB is point and click. I guess it comes down to personal prference. For me it is not close Classicos, the beach and the variety of women it is not close.

Exactly my point, he said he wasnt a drinker and really didn't want to be stuck in the bar between two girls. The place is small and the girls are all around. Pool, bar area, restaurant area. A lot of fun for everyone.

This Blackbeards versus Sosua debate has been going on for at least the seven years I have been a member here. It sometimes turns abusive and rarely throws up anything new. I don't know why grown men have to form two opposing gangs like playground juveniles. (Three gangs if Field of Dreams is added to the mix).
All three venues are different, all have advantages and downsides the others don't have. What the enquirer and those responding to him should be concentrating on is what exactly he is looking for, what sort of budget he has, and what assets or weaknesses he has.
A guy who speaks Spanish and is looking for semi-pros or non-pros would be ill-advised to stay at Blackbeards. But for a guy who cannot speak a word of Spanish and is a newbie monger it would be a safe choice. If you want semi-pros and don't need your hand held, Field of Dreams is ideal, but a bad choice if you want to take non-pros back there as a respectable girl (or more likely a girl who wants to appear respectable) would be embarrassed by the putas and tacky murals.
If you want haitianas you won't find many, if any, at Blackbeards or Field of Dreams. If you are not confident negotiating, avoid Sosua unless you want to take the easy and expensive option of Passions, or the chicas will take you to the cleaners.
And so on. These are just a few of dozens of criteria. Swimmer? Golfer? Diver? Latin dancer? Hiring a car? These are all factors which should influence your choice of location. It is stupid to say that one place is better than another unless the enquirer has spelled out his requirements. We are lucky to have all these locations. The more of them which survive the more prices are kept reasonable and the more chicas are attracted to the area to work. Instead of libelling them we should be supporting them all, but gently pointing out their strong and weak points.
It is funny how often when I hear mongers attacking one or other location I later find out that they have had a bad experience there and are generalizing on the strength of that. Often, though not always, they have been at fault themselves but because they feel humiliated they will go on bad-mouthing the place for years afterwards.
Each has it own good points. For me bb is training wheel. Point and click. The women are ok but are very similar as management has weight rules. If you speak no spanish this is a great option. Now speaking Spanish affords you the ability to negotiate with Sosua chicas. This can be big fun. After one time in BB I had no desire to go back. It was fish in a barrel. Sosua is fish in a lake. The more you do the Dr the more you want challenges. Semi and non pros are te gold standard. That is what I shoot for now. I have time to invest in my hobby many guys do not. I can talk on line and practice speaking Spanish.

If I had more time, I would certainly throw FOD into the mix. I will likely include FOD for at least 1-2 nights for a future trip, again, to sample each offering.
However, no matter how much I will end up liking DR, I will probably not return anytime that soon since I do like to travel the world, particularly places that I've never been to. So many different countries, cultures and girls to experience. And I won't go to a place just for the girls either. There would have to be at least one other interesting activity such as diving (Caribbean or Costa Rica) , temples (Thailand) , museums (Berlin) , etc.
Brothers,
We are looking for inexpensive hotels that give us good service and do not ask too many questions. Now your suggestions are always greatly appreciated, but remember we are mongers first and we are looking for any discounts we can get. Short time hotels and all nighters that give us great service. So brothers tell us the hidden spots that we know nothing about, but you had a great experience.

I'm in Canada so to me (and a LOT of other divers up here) , any diving in the warm waters of the Caribbean would be better than what we have here in Ontario!

I'll see if I might be able to compromise and bring only the smaller stuff that are more personal (mask, wetsuit) and leave the bigger items at home (fins, etc.).
I'll also have to monitor the weather but as long as the boats can go out, say in light rain, the dives are generally a go. Only when there is rough waves and wind will dives be cancelled.
If it ends up with storms, I understand that BBs might actually be the best place to stay put rather than be in Sosua.

I would just leave the gear at home and use the shop's. When I absolutely need to bring my gear, I keep my dive bag at 50 lbs to avoid oversize charges. And that is only my main gear. I keep my light, batteries, camera, strobe, and laptop in my backpack that I will carry-on. And put my clothes in those Space Bags and carry them in one of those Walmart cloth recycle bags with the handles. I know what a b it is to carry all that s around. It's really not worth it bringing it to DR. I don't even wear a wetsuit there, just swim trunks and a mesh Nike shirt. I recommend bringing only mask, dive computer, camera and fins if need be.
A friend and I will be in Puerto Plata December 5. 9 (4 nights). We have reservations at the New Garden; but that's all we've done so far! We've both traveled to Thailand, Brazil, Mexico, Medellin, etc. So the "Art" of pooning is understood. What I do not know is the "lay of land" in PP and where we might find the best action in BOTH the AM and the evening hours. Also, what are the rates I should anticipate for short term and Overnight? Which are preferred for payment: DR Pesos or US Dollars? Any other intel is greatly appreciated; apologies in advance for all the questions; when it comes to PP most of the detailed dialogue seems to focus on Blackbeards. If any of you guys are around, it's always great to hook up for a brewski and to swap lies! Also. If any need info on Pattaya, Rio, Tijuana, Nogales, etc. Reach out! FYI. I am VERY active on the USASG in the Arizona / Phoenix section.

Isn't Puerto Plata a city? Or am I mistaken? Guess I need to check a map again.

If you are trying to conduct transactions in foreign currency then you are ripping yourself off and asking to be ripped off. So do not let the word "dollar" come out of your mouth during your trip unless it is at a time when you are exchanging currency and asking what the rate is or paying your hotel bill. Being a Tijuana veteran you should know that the street girls will ask for 200 pesos or $20. You will come out better paying 200 pesos because it is equal to $15.30 and if you paid in dollars you just gave away $4.70.

Good info: I thought the hotel was in Puerto Plata (my buddy booked it. And said it was there). Is the hobby "better" (I. E. More talent, bars, opportunities, etc. In PP or Sousa?). Maybe we need to change hotels?

The most hilarious is that Casa Marina is shown to be located behind La Passion (shown on the map as "Passions") at the wrong end of Sosua and nowhere near the beach.
Fortunately one can get laid in Sosua even without a map.
Hillbilly and Frannie. Thanks for Bearing with me and not jumping my case; Enternational. Although your information is appreciated your tone is, well, grab a beer and chill just a little. I did not book the hotel; my wingman did and he thought it was is Puerto Plata (thus I did as well). Having never been to the DR, I was clueless. So, now that I have my bearings straight, I will read the Sousa forum. As for Peso vs. Dollar, many LatAm countries are somewhat interchangeable with the dollar and their own currency, especially in areas heavily frequented by touristas. Also, in some of these countries the dollar has been "preferred" and often times you received a better "exchange rate" for services when paying in dollars. I now know that this isn't the case in the DR. To All: I will provide a trip report on this site once I return state-side. Thanks again for your help here.
[QUOTE=Hillbilly69; 1346680]Here is a map pinpointing your hotel in Sosua. Passions and Rumba Bar are on there I added them to Google maps a while back.

[QUOTE=Frannie; 1346697]I would not rely too much on the accuracy of Google maps. Hotel El Colibri is in completely the wrong place, and there are several errors on the map. For example Latino Minimarket is shown as "Latino's Pharmacy" and the Metro Bus Line terminus as "Metro Tours". There are also other mistakes. The most hilarious is that Casa Marina is shown to be located behind La Passion (shown on the map as "Passions") at the wrong end of Sosua and nowhere near the beach.
Fortunately one can get laid in Sosua even without a map.[/QUOTE]I am the person who put New Garden, Rumba, Passions on Google Maps and Caribe bus and half dozen others. Those others wasn't me but I moved a few and some carny moved them again.

Three successive days of torrential rain on the north coast. I heard reports that the river had overflowed its banks in Montellano and some chicas has lost nearly all their clothes and school books when the river came into their houses. Please give generously to flood victims.

Wrapping up another good trip to Barba Negra! I've got my last chica coming at 9. The girls were fun, and I got great BBBJ from all my picks! I think they've been sharing tips or something lmao! Some new faces and old favoritas! Black Beards consistently satisfys, its like a snickers! LOL! I'm headed down to Cabarete for my last 3 days, I just want to try something different. Later bros!
Just got back from BB's, not much I can say that hasn't been said before and on my many past visits. Like always the girls were great and Tim, Cliff and Martha and the rest of the staff were awesome like always. I got to see many old friends that I have made and kept in contact with over the years. The one difference this time was the Birthday party BB's put together. I don't know John and I see he posted below but I must say he did a terrific job with what I assume had to be a significant bit of out of pocket expense. He provided a free dinner buffet for everyone there including the girls. He also brought in a professional dance show for our entertainment. Although I am not sure I think I saw the girls with tickets they could turn in for free drinks. So not only did he hook his customers up he also knew keeping the girls happy was important. I finished the night by partying in my room with 2 great girls all night while we cleaned out the refrig of beer, coke and rum. LOL! Since your reading here. Thanks John, you deserve a lot of credit I can't think of a better way to spend a Thursday night in Nov.
Doker44
I wasn't there since the beginning, but BB is really great place and it becomes better and better.
Free anniversary dinner was really nice of John. Staff, chicas and guests really enjoyed dinner, John's trip down memory lane and festivities! Professional dance show which happened for a first time was even better with some short, but funny dances of management and mamasans. There was also a great group dance performed by many chicas. I hope professional dance show will become a new tradition, just like bikini contest. I only wish more chicas involvement next time.
I understand that professional dance show is out of pocket expense for the hotel, but maybe Mildred (named new Special Events Coordinator in one of newsletters) may organize something similar.
Chicas and food were great, as always during my stay.
Congratulations to John, Martha, Monica and rest of the crew!
My first DR adventure started with a ridiculously early 4:30 am check-in at the Toronto airport (since I was connecting through Newark as part of my flights on points). I probably only got 4 hours of sleep before heading out. By the time I got to Puerto Plata at about 2 pm local time, I was zonked. But the arrival process as reported by others, was relatively smooth.
[B]Arrival At The Airport[/B]
There was the local band that welcomed the passengers even though they sounded like they were playing an endless loop rather than an actual tune. The first line up was for the $10 US Tourist card with two windows available for payments. I had my two $5 US bills ready (including one which had part of a corner ripped off so I hid that one behind the full bill hoping the gal wouldn't catch it. She didn't). Immediately after you get your paper slip receipt (rather than a real card) , there's free rum shots next to the Tourist card windows. I didn't bother since there were already several passengers lined up for the free booze and I wanted to get out of there.
A guy then collected the tourist card portion right before the immigration checkpoint. I was wearing my glasses because of the long flights and my passport photo does not have me wearing any. This apparently caused a problem for the immigration officer as he called for another of his team to verify. They both kept comparing my face to that of the photo and I finally decided to help them out by removing my glasses. Then they promptly stamped my passport but didn't even say one word to me throughout. Not even a simple 'welcome' to Dominican Republic which I thought was kind of cold.
My checked luggage was already on the conveyor belt and outside where the taxi drivers were waiting to get business, I spotted the guy holding a Blackbeard's Resort sign with my last name on it. We went over to his parked minivan and started heading out to Costambar, where Blackbeard's is located.
The trip is pretty far out and a good 30 minutes as we went through Puerto Plata. I was kind of shocked at all the motoconchos buzzing around everywhere and I saw only one guy wearing a helmet. No other riders and their passengers, including small kids, wore any helmets. Some bikes had what seemed to be an entire family onboard. Disasters waiting to happen.
The gates at Costambar were pretty far into the side road into that area so in hindsight, I don't think it would have been practical at all with my checked luggage, to use a cheap publico (the real cheap, crowded shared taxis the locals use) route to get there. Immediately after getting through the gates, I saw Jenny's market on the right side. I also saw a small pharmacy (called a farmacia locally) across the street with the words Viagra, Cialis and Levitra boldly painted on the wall!
[B]Arrival To Blackbeard's[/B]
Once at Blackbeard's, the driver took me to reception where we were met by Tim, one of the gringo managers there. After Tim went through the lowdown on the resort and the process with the girls, I paid for the two nights stay at $70 each night for a standard room as well as the $45 US transfer from the POP airport. I also changed $300 US into DR pesos as Tim claimed that they were offering a rate around 38 better than the bank rate of 40. So the check-in was pretty efficient although I would have felt better if the initial online reservation with my credit card was done over a secure webpage which they didn't have.
It was already about 3 pm on the Sunday afternoon and things were really quiet at the resort. I saw maybe only 6 girls in bikinis sitting around a table near the pool, a group of four guys having lunch sitting at another table and that was all. Of course, the girls were already eyeing me like fresh prey!
My room on the second floor was okay, clean and comfortable with a large step-in shower. The bed was comfortable enough. They provided soap but no shampoo so if you don't want to use soap for washing your hair, you need to bring your own shampoo. A key lockbox was inside the closet for security. For some reason, there was a full length mirror in my room which I thought was probably more useful for the chicas than the guests. Since I had so little sleep the night before, I wanted to catch up and nap for the rest of the afternoon.
After a short nap, I was finally ready for action. Went downstairs to scope out the place which turned out to be quite straight forward. All the guest rooms faced the pool area. On the opposite side was the reception which was next to a pool table room, a small lobby area with free internet computer (which worked great) , a bar area and an outdoor restaurant / dining area. Everything was pretty compact so when you look at the photos on their website, you have to realize that the place in real life is not that big.
There is a stairway that went up to the another bar area / dance floor where they have the contests and it's pretty nice although they are in use only Thursday to Saturday nights. There is a separate, hidden large jacuzzi which allows nudity but I never saw it being used once during my stay.
[B]The Girls[/B]
The girls mainly hung out either at poolside tables or the open air bar area. They never really went inside the dining area unless accompanied by a guest (which I never saw happen except the odd time for breakfast when a guest treated a chica he had for an all-nighter). Maybe this was a rule they had to follow by the resort as to not bother the guests during their meals or something.
In the pool table room, there were two girls playing there and I recognized one of them from the photos in the Blackbeard's newsletter. It was a little 20 year old spinner named Madelyn, who immediately greeted me. I decided that she would be my first at Blackbeard's.
She met me at my room after she went back to the girls' changing room to get some things. They apparently use their own towel rather than any of your own room towels. She asked me to shower first then she proceeded to have her's. Then it was action time. After a nice first session, I left the standard 1, 600 pesos on her purse while she showered again. Spent a bit of time talking. With a combo of my broken Spanish and her broken English. It was quite pleasant. She even did some dancing for me as she was in no rush to leave right away.
The way the DR girls dance is interesting. They do some nice curvy moves but if you catch some of the videos online, they also do this thing where they squat down and do this rapid ass vibration thing. They probably think this is sexy but in my honest opinion, I think this particular move looks more funny than sensual. But that's just my opinion.
After my session with Madelyn, I filled out a comment slip that Tim requested the guests to do on each girl we session with. I actually had Madelyn write her name at the top beforehand so I got her name right and even told her that I would do a nice writeup for her. She appreciated this. The whole session maybe lasted about an hour even though the room info binder stated 1 to 2 hours for 1, 600 pesos but after you come (which they call a leche) , the action is considered done. But in no way did I ever feel rushed during the sessions there.
The evening shift of about 20 to 30 girls came in about 6 pm while I was having my dinner. I did have initial worries that I wouldn't like any of the girls in DR and although there were girls that were a bit on the chunky side for my taste, there were enough slimmer ones which I prefer, like Madelyn. So it seems that earlier reports that there will usually be something for each guy's taste rings true. I was quite relieved by this. I didn't end up taking any girls for my first evening since I was just too tired but I did see a few I would like for the next evening.
On Monday, there were no girls available until they day shift started trotting in around noon. It was raining on and off the entire day so the bikinis were gone replaced by just street clothes (as explained to me by Madelyn). There were more girls in this day shift compared to Sunday. Some guys seemed to be taking their first girl for the day during the early parts of the afternoon. But activity overall during the day seemed to be quite low key with not much happening.
I found it kind of interesting that the DR girls seem to just hate getting their hair wet from the rain, even if just drizzles. They will wear these hair shower caps outside and even use umbrellas to take a few steps from the bar to their change room or to another room. It must be cultural since a local scuba operator later told me that DR girls tend to wash their hair only once per week and at the salons too among some other quirks they have. Not surprisingly, most tend to be non-swimmers.
For the daytime on Monday, I decided to have Madelyn again since I wanted to see if a repeat session with a chica would be any different and at least with Madelyn, it was. She was more aware of what I liked and didn't like this time around. After the action, she danced in my room some more and even gave me a quick lesson on how to dance the bachatta.
During the evening, I almost chose the mamasan on duty by mistake until I suddenly realized who she was when she asked me why I haven't taken a girl yet for the evening. And yes, she would have been my first choice if she was available! There were a few girls who approached me with a lot of hands feeling me up and this kind of aggressive attitude actually turned me off a bit especially since they tended to be the ones I had no interest in (too chunky, etc.). But I'll soon learn that this would be nothing compared to the aggression of the Sosua girls later on in my trip. By about 11 pm after some nice chatting with the other guys at the bar area, I decided on a slim quiet chica named Chanel.
Chanel turned out to be a real sweetheart and I enjoyed my session with this 22 year old lady who had legs that seemed to go on forever. I was keeping some feedback from other reports in mind that sometimes the aggressive girls do not provide that great service while the quieter ones usually do.
During this time, there were way more girls than guests so I would imagine that for both the daytime and evening shifts, many if not most of the girls, would walk away without earning any pesos. I heard as a rumour that some of them went over to another club in Costambar after the midnight Blackbeard's bar closing. I think I walked by it on the way to Jenny's as there was an apartment / motel complex that did have a pool and open air bar area with a few guys sitting around.
[B]The Surrounding Area[/B]
I decided to take a walk outside to check out the beach and it was a quick 3 minute walk after turning left outside Blackbeard's and a quick right. The beach itself was crap. Full of pebbles and some litter. Not much was happening at all there. The weather was nice though at this time of year. Not too hot and not too cold but more on this later.
I did see a few open air restaurants but none seemed to be open. In general, there wasn't really anything interesting in the immediate area. Jenny's is an easy 10 minute walk from Blackbeard's. After exiting the resort, go right, then turn right at the first street, then left then right again on the main road towards the Costambar gates. I looked around inside Jenny's but didn't buy anything. I did pick up a few tabs of generic Cialis at the small farmacia across from Jenny's just in case. This was the place where they had Viagra, Cialis and Levitra painted on the wall. They were selling for 50 pesos per tab and I would imagine that they get business from not only the Blackbeard's guests, but also the many reported ex-pats who live in the area. Keep in mind that you have to ask for the generic versions since this farmacia also carries the trade name versions for much higher prices. I was first shown a box of trade name Cialis (4 tabs) for 1375 pesos. Blackbeard's also sell what they call 'Vitamin V and C' generics but at slightly higher prices than what the farmacia charges.
[B]The Restaurant[/B]
The food was well priced with breakfast at about 235 to 250 pesos and dinner at 400 to 500. I skipped lunch during this trip for some reason but they had lunch fare there like burgers. The meals I did have there were quite good. I had a surf and turf for my first dinner and a smoked pork chop for my other. Both were really tasty and another thing worth noting is that the ice in the drinks were fine and safe. I ended up eating all my meals onsite while I was there.
I took two bottles of water from my room minibar fridge for 40 pesos each. Gatorade was available at 80 pesos a bottle in the room too as well as potato chips, soft drinks and some rum but I didn't take anything else.
[B]My Only Issues With Blackbeard's[/B]
During my first evening which was the Sunday, I was still a bit tired from travel and the lack of sleep. Instead of taking on another girl as planned, I decided to catch up on more needed sleep. This itself turned into a bit of a problem for me since the bar area plays continuous loud music during the evening which I heard from my room. If one wanted to nap in the afternoon, there was too much noise from the onsite maintenance staff. Then the evening bar music went on all night that made napping after dinner difficult too. It was only at midnight when things closed down did the music stop and I was finally able to get some real sleep.
If possible, I would like to get a room that is less noisy since I'm use to the quiet Montreal hotel rooms where I have my time with the outcall girls there each year. But as I'll find out later, Sosua would be even noisier.
Because of it's remote location in Costambar, Blackbeard's is quite a quaint resort. However, especially when it rains, there really is nothing else to do at Blackbeard's between sessions with the girls. So guys I talked to were ending up spending a lot of time inside their rooms reading or watching TV. Good thing I brought a book to read.
Tim already confirmed that no scuba tours were available since the local operator in Puerto Plata was not willing to come pick up divers, especially in my case, a single diver. For me personally, I found the 'off-time' quite boring. Even with a walk down to Jenny's, I still had hours to waste.
I might return to Blackbeard's since the system with the girls and meals are quite easy as well as drama free but I would not want to stay for more than say a few days at a time. If they could get a scuba operator willing to pick up there, it would make a big difference for me since there's nothing during the mornings there to do.
I would try a Thursday to Saturday though to catch the evening contest entertainment though as the feedback I got from the other guys was good for these. Another option is to try Field of Dreams for comparison next trip too. I do like the overall concept if a few improvements can be done. But even with that, I'm not sure if I would be willing to spend an entire week there yet.
The transits to and from Blackbeard's are a ripoff in my opinion. I needed to transfer to Sosua for the other half of my DR trip and this would have cost me at least 1, 700 pesos or about $55. Fortunately, I got a free ride from a local scuba operator based in Sosua.
I'll have a report on the Sosua portion of my trip soon in that section.
Thanks for the report. It was very informative and helpful. Perfect for a novice DR visitor. I am planning to follow in your footsteps next year.

On the issue of hair, well, most Dominicanas are Black. And as Black people our hair is not naturally oily like White people because we didn't need that feature in tropics of the Motherland as the Whites needed it in the frigid areas of Europe. And since it is not oily then we don't need to wash it everyday as White people do. Washing too often will actually harm our hair. As we know fashion is dictated by people of European decent and part of fashion is hair. To obtain hair as a White person, Black women have to process it with lye in order to make their naturally curly hair straight and add extensions to make it longer. It is not that they are afraid to get their hair wet, but water fucks up processed hair. So you won't come out with a Bo Derek 10, but a Color Purple Oprah Winfrey.
Here is part of an article that explains it a little better:
". And chlorine, which is an acidic chemical and has ions that are part of common salt, works against the relaxer, an alkaline. If not properly cared for, hair can break or even shed. A cynic or person of non-African background might suggest that these women not chemically relax their hair. They could wear it natural and short and swim all they want. Unfortunately for black women, the issue of the appearance of our hair goes waaaaaay deeper than that.
Having long straight hair has been a standard of beauty for European women for centuries. White women have even been known to use everything from flat irons to blow dryers to attain the straight look that was believed to be more manageable and controllable the way a lady of society should be.
And at no time (in my opinion) were the rules of society more restrictive than during the Victorian era / antebellum America.
A woman's hair was considered her 'crowing glory' and was never supposed to be cut. African-American women by contrast, have a tighter curl, often called 'kinky, ' that doesn't grow long. Mostly because it doesn't need to.
Trichology, the study of hair, says the purpose of those strands on someone's head is to protect the scalp from the sun. Hawkins says Europeans tend to secrete much more natural oil in their hair than people of African descent, making the hair heavier and holding more heat close to the scalp. Those natural oils, Hawkins says, also make the hair stand up better to the the stripping conditions of pool or sea water.
Everyone has to wash their hair after swimming. But if you're black it's probably more urgent that you wash it immediately and condition it as well. And this does not include the time it may take to re-style it to what ever look you had before jumping in the water.
It's easy to see how this much time and energy can be unappealing to a kid whose mom may have just paid $60 to $100 to get it done in the first place."

Thanks for the report bro.
Ell, arrived on a Saturday in Santiago after about 14 hours in a plane and different airports. FOD send me a driver and we had an interesting trip back to PP. The roads were washed out in two places, were we had to wait for the fire department hose down the streets to wash down the mud. Meanwhile I had the chance to watch, experience the people of the DR for the first time (being my frist trip here). They are the friendlist people I have met, easy to cut each other off, honk and wave a hand or a fist, then laugh together a minute later. A stranger from the car in front of me offering snacks while we all were waiting in the rain. Amazing people. Great bunch!
It took a while to get FOD, but once I arrived at the "hacienda", I was very excited. Noticed immediately some chica head's perking up seeing a gringo with suitcases to arrive, and I was getting in the "mood". Paid the taxi, then got checked into my room by one of the partners and time to unpack and get a shower and cleaned up. Room is small, and those awful frescas or whatever we want to call those wall paintings make the room look cheesy and very small due to its using dark paints. A little depressing. But I already knew about the "artwork", also not here for the rooms, so time to play.
By this time it was already very late afternoon. So, the plan was to eat some local cuisine and then. Some local desert. So I asked for the menu, and I was disappointed to see a menu that was basically non-latin: italian and american items only. So I asked for the chef and asked what he would recommend for me to try aka experience. Pasta Carbonara. Not impressed. Oh well, not here for the food, even though dining is one of my favorite pastimes. (All the other dishes I ordered very equally average at best, but the two cooks working there were friendly and eager to please)
Chicas.
Day 1.
So I got targetted by one girl, big boned, but the face reminded of Janet Jackson. She kept smiling while I was eating, so instead of choking on the remainder of my dish, I invited her (B.) over. In the process I noticed her friend (M1) next to her smiling up a storm and a little disappointed of being left out, so I invited her over too. Now M1 was not my type, but once she got to the table her personality was great, while my first choice, Ms B stopped smiling and just sat back.
After getting them some food, the talk turned to if I was interested in a massage by them two. Now, I was not in the mood for a two-some, I wanted to hook up with B only. But they insisted no strings attached, just go back to my room, both will give me a massage and I could choose then. OKAY, noob mistake ONE! I agreed. I really thought massage first, but no, M1 got me on the bed, started kissing, while B disrobed and got in the shower. Then M1 got in the shower while B did the kissing part, but she turned. Cold. The first couple minutes she appeared to enjoy it, but then distanced herself and let M1 take over. Well, a little while it was all over, and then I realized I just did noob mistake TWO. We never discussed price! Oh yeah, I was told about tariff and propina and no negotiation over the price after the deed. After a couple minutes, I gave myself a mental note (this is my DR bootcamp, noob) and paid their fee. And yeah I was pissed, more at me, then at them.
Day 2.
In the afternoon I arranged a taxi ride into Puerto Plato to drop by Novia Scotia bank. Taxi gave another guest a ride to the dentist at the same time, and I spend a little over an hour in the taxi waiting for the dentist to finish. Of course the cabbie charged us both full price LOL. Second night I met the half Dominican / Haitian, great gal by the name of M2, and she offered me a "massage" too. Now that I knew what that meant, I asked for the price and she quoted $100. 00. You want a 100 pesos I replied, and she laughed and said US dollar."Sorry, only pesos on me. 3000 pesos for all night? She agreed." I might graduate boot camp yet; p.
Got her in the room. We had some good fun, except this is now the second night in a row where the girls start moaning really badly, and it was so badly done that it turned me off. When I dealt with moaners before, I always gave the girls the benefit of the doubt that it might be real. But so far the DR chicas are not convincing at all LOL. Anyways, early morning, M2 jumps in the shower getting ready for round 2! Ok LOL.
Day 3
The wfi and TV are all on satellite here, so when it was raining which it did a lot the first two days, I was cut off. The food was average, and the place was slowly getting smaller for me. I was getting stir crazy. Option of spending money on the cab did not seem enticing, so I decided to try carro publico to Sosua to scout out some hotels in that town LOL. Great experience! LOL First day I got charged the gringo rate of 100 pesos each way, but then I dropped to 50 pesos to eventually 45 pesos. Got a massage from a haitian in sosua with the most awesome body I have seen. Amazing.
Returned to the hotel, and hung out at the bar. M2 asked me if I will spend the night solo, and I said yeah, I was a little tired.
Day 4.
I started looking forward to checking out the following day, when I met this two girls Y1 and Y2. After some hanging out in the patio area, they started the "do you want a massage from both of us". Been there, done that, pass. Now, one of those two really had my attention: quiet, but the most amazing smile, and some very nice curves. I told Y2 I am sorry, but I would like to spend some time with Y1. No attitude, she was fine with it. So, Y1 spend the next days with me (I extended my stay at FOD for another night; p). I was real glad I met her. No fake moans, it was the real thing, at least she had me convinced; p
Conclusion:
Now, some stuff about FOD. This is my first time I ever stayed at a casa like hotel. This place is jack of all trades master of none. Hotel, restaurant, bar, and chicas. Their main income I think is the bar itself. As a hotel guest, it felt relaxing to be there, but after a few days you realize there is not much too do, and I start feeling a little trapped. The beach close to FOD, over at playa dorado, is long and a nice beach, but completely deserted. Transportation to town is done by taxis. Hotel Bar and restaurant is closed by 11pm every night, and the girls are gone. After that everything is locked up. I wish staff would have given us choices or information what to do outside FOD, but that might distract from customers hanging out at their bar?
Speaking of staff / management: Their main partner is doing this business because he enjoys working. He and his charming wife are retired, but this is their hobby of sorts. He will be around for a long time. I see a long future for FOD under his leadership. I talked to him a little, and observed him interacting with some local business people, his staff and the chicas there. He cares and at times it felt like a family affair being there more then just a business. But the hotel is old and worn, and repairs are being neglected, indicating some cash flow issues / priorities. But I after talking to him, I can see them successfully continuing. The only other partner I saw works a lot on the "floor", but also plays hard, which unfortunaley is creating and will create issues with the chicas there, causing higher turnover then needed. But I can not blame him; If you like chocolate and you work in a chocolate store, you will be tempted to eat some of the candy a lot of the times, ; p There is a mamasan that gives good real massages (no no happy endings!) , the bar staff and cooks are a great bunch of people, and the lady that does the room also will do laundry for a fee (no working on mondays for her though LOL get your towels before Monday; p). They have a great mix of owners and staff!
I am really glad I got to experience Field of Dreams.
Thanks for the explanation. I guess we could forget about seeing female Dominican divemasters anytime soon.

A cynic or person of non-African background might suggest that these women not chemically relax their hair. They could wear it natural and short and swim all they want. Unfortunately for black women, the issue of the appearance of our hair goes waaaaaay deeper than that.
Having long straight hair has been a standard of beauty for European women for centuries. White women have even been known to use everything from flat irons to blow dryers to attain the straight look that was believed to be more manageable and controllable the way a lady of society should be.
And at no time (in my opinion) were the rules of society more restrictive than during the Victorian era / antebellum America.
A woman's hair was considered her 'crowing glory' and was never supposed to be cut. African-American women by contrast, have a tighter curl, often called 'kinky, ' that doesn't grow long. Mostly because it doesn't need to.
Trichology, the study of hair, says the purpose of those strands on someone's head is to protect the scalp from the sun. Hawkins says Europeans tend to secrete much more natural oil in their hair than people of African descent, making the hair heavier and holding more heat close to the scalp. Those natural oils, Hawkins says, also make the hair stand up better to the the stripping conditions of pool or sea water.
Everyone has to wash their hair after swimming. But if you're black it's probably more urgent that you wash it immediately and condition it as well. And this does not include the time it may take to re-style it to what ever look you had before jumping in the water.
It's easy to see how this much time and energy can be unappealing to a kid whose mom may have just paid $60 to $100 to get it done in the first place."
[url]http://curlychic.com/hair-story-african-american-women-hair-and-swimming/[/url][/QUOTE]Actually a lot of the Dominicanas you will meet have woven hair extensions. A lot of this hair comes from Chinese heads. This dead hair deteriorates fairly quickly and may only last a few weeks. However most Dominicans do know how to swim and enjoy bathing in the rivers or at the beaches in the summertime. I have seen girls at Blackbeards taking a running headfirst dive into the pool with dreadlocks streaming behind them.
I am making my second trip to DR in January. I haven't checked availability yet to see if that is a factor, however I am having trouble deciding. I went to BB's on my last trip and had a blast. I had planned to go to Sosua after a day or two there, but I was having so much fun I decided to stay. The reports I have heard of FOD haven't been quite as glowing, but have been more than satisfactory.
I just wanted to try two to three days of this trip in the same format with different girls. I have also read that it is easier to get transport to places in PP and Sosua from FOD, leaving me with entertainment options if I get bored in the resort. Of course, last trip I met some great expats who were able to offer some great suggestions for entertaining myself within the walls of Costambar. I certainly ate and drank well. I just had an easier time in Sosua the one night I stayed there last trip, keeping myself entertained between sessions. I think that this time I will give Sosua more of a fair chance and probably only do 3-4 days out of 7 in BBs or FOD first to drain the reserves. I just found Sosua a little intimidating for the first night of my first time in the DR. By the time I had been at BBs 3 days last trip, I had made friends and had a girl who I was planning to repeat with for the rest of my trip (she was just too good). I think her BBs name was Nairobi. I caught her on her first day. If I thought she was still there my decision would probably be made already.
The cost difference is of course negligible, unless I decide to take more than one day trip outside of Costambar (relentless taxi mafia). Has anybody on the ground inspected the girl quality at both places recently? BBs last trip was certainly more than adequate. FOD was closed when I was last there so I never made it there.
Sorry for the rambling post everyone. I am in search of informed opinions rather than definitive answers, as YMMV is the word of the day with any trip like this. Thank you to everyone who posts on this board. Without the wisdom of experienced board members, my last trip would not have been such a success.
Very well said Charles!
The more competition the better the rates and variety of chicas.
It all depends on the individual's tastes, age, finances and expectations.
It is all good for all of us!
[QUOTE=Charles Pooter; 1345176]This Blackbeards versus Sosua debate has been going on for at least the seven years I have been a member here. It sometimes turns abusive and rarely throws up anything new. I don't know why grown men have to form two opposing gangs like playground juveniles. (Three gangs if Field of Dreams is added to the mix).
All three venues are different, all have advantages and downsides the others don't have. What the enquirer and those responding to him should be concentrating on is what exactly he is looking for, what sort of budget he has, and what assets or weaknesses he has.
A guy who speaks Spanish and is looking for semi-pros or non-pros would be ill-advised to stay at Blackbeards. But for a guy who cannot speak a word of Spanish and is a newbie monger it would be a safe choice. If you want semi-pros and don't need your hand held, Field of Dreams is ideal, but a bad choice if you want to take non-pros back there as a respectable girl (or more likely a girl who wants to appear respectable) would be embarrassed by the putas and tacky murals.
If you want haitianas you won't find many, if any, at Blackbeards or Field of Dreams. If you are not confident negotiating, avoid Sosua unless you want to take the easy and expensive option of Passions, or the chicas will take you to the cleaners.
And so on. These are just a few of dozens of criteria. Swimmer? Golfer? Diver? Latin dancer? Hiring a car? These are all factors which should influence your choice of location. It is stupid to say that one place is better than another unless the enquirer has spelled out his requirements. We are lucky to have all these locations. The more of them which survive the more prices are kept reasonable and the more chicas are attracted to the area to work. Instead of libelling them we should be supporting them all, but gently pointing out their strong and weak points.
It is funny how often when I hear mongers attacking one or other location I later find out that they have had a bad experience there and are generalizing on the strength of that. Often, though not always, they have been at fault themselves but because they feel humiliated they will go on bad-mouthing the place for years afterwards.[/QUOTE]

I just can't really place FOD in my head geographically or in any other category due to lack of experience. I have read a lot of good reports on FOD since the reopening. I may just do 2 nights at each location. I just don't want to end up locking myself down to one spot like I did from days 2-7 of my last trip. BBs was incredible last time though.
Think Pepsi vs. Coke. Some people are loyal to one brand or the other and some (like me) enjoy the variety that each has to offer. I think of FOD's like the old Avis car rental slogan. We're #2 but we try harder.
Some quick pro's and con's based on staying at both locations this past July. Regardless it will still come down to personal preference.
Management:
BB's = very established and professional. They have a no nonsense approach to running their business. John the owner is the BOSS and Tim is his #2 and they are on top of the entire operation and insist on consistent high quality from all of their staff and girls. There are times when I wish they would be a little interactive with the customers. The personal touch goes a long long way.
FOD = their owners (at least one) are there all the time. They are always interacting with their customers. They go out of their way to make you feel important. The volume of customers is not there consistently yet so time will tell if that will change. They will upgrade your room based on the length of your stay.
And availability especially if you refer other customers to them or are a repeat customer. I have found that they are very receptive to suggestions and are quick to make changes that will help them improve.
Facility:
BB's = say what you will about John the owner he is one driven individual and Tim is right behind him. The changes that are made are numerous and continuous. They never stop. It does not take long from the time customers make suggestions to their implementation and completion. New HD Tv's with cable I can only imagine what that cost. But how great that must now be!
There are more rooms, the restaurant prices vs. Cost, variety, and over all quality is a good value. The Jacuzzi is large and private even if there are 10 couples using it at the same time.
FOD = the place needs a bit of a face-lift and the murals are just wrong. The difficulty the owners have is they own the name / business "FOD" but lease the Hotel. The owners know what changes they would like to see made but are not in a position to have them done.
Location:
BB's = farther from the Airport, taxis are more expensive but there is a Beach close by and they are several local shops, a drug store and a couple of restaurants.
FOD = close to the Airport, taxis are much cheaper, closer to Sosua and downtown Puerto Plata with Disco's and a Casino. There is a Beach nearby but not as close as the one by BB's. Short ride to stores and Banks.
Girls:
BB's = there are more so the selection is greater.
FOD = there is a nice variety just not as many.
* There are Diamond and Duds in both places, just like there are some girls that are more aggressive. You will find happiness in both places just as both places keep a watchful eye on the quality and consistency of your experience.
I am not sure I have helped with my personal assessment of both places and as always everyone's experience will be different.
PS. Mr. Enternational thank you for the hair explanation. I have always been curious about the concern the girls have had over getting their hair wet. I always thought it was because 1. Either it had been colored 2. They had extensions or 3. It was so long and there were no blow dryers in the rooms.

I will admit, it was a bit intense the first couple days. After walking & talking, found a bunch of places that are a little more laid back compared to the madness on Pedro Clisante.

The rooms and restaurant would be less important factors for me as I'm going to assume that they are more than adequate at FOD. It's the girls that would be the deciding factor for me. The smaller numbers worry me a bit because even at BBs or Sosua, I personally liked only 10 to 20% of the girls. As long as that 10 to 20% are available for me, I would be okay. There were always enough for me at BBs. But if the numbers are low at FOD and they just happen to pick up more clients when I'm there, I could be at a disadvantage. Unless they bring in more girls upon higher client attendance.
As for location, I probably would not bother shuttling back and forth from FOD to Sosua, especially for short time sessions. Better to just stay put at each location and enjoy the fruit at each one.
[QUOTE=Traveler04; 1355945]BB's =there is a Beach close by.
FOD = taxis are much cheaper. There is a Beach nearby but not as close as the one by BB's.[/QUOTE]Very fair assessment as I would expect from one of more experienced and considered posters.
I would only add the following comments:
Yes, there is a beach within 4 munutes walk of Blackbeards, but it is only for walking along. You don't see many gringos swimming there, and for good reason. There are two beaches 20 minutes walk from Field of Dreams and they both offer clean sand and water.
Yes, taxis are cheaper at Field of Dreams, but a more important point is that you don't need to use private taxis at all. I stayed a total of 5 months at the old Field of Dreams on various trips and I don't remember ever having to use a taxi except when I shared one with other guests. From FoD as a base I travelled all over the North Coast by very cheap public transport, sometimes without needing to change. A big saving for guys on a budget like me. At Blackbeards it is very inconvenient without a rental or private taxis if you want to get off campus.
The selection of chicas at Blackbeards is much bigger, so that is a factor if you are staying a week or more. If for a couple of days it hardly matters.

The Sosua part will be on the weekend this time around. It was really intimidating for me on my first day in Sosua last trip.

With 3 days to work with, a better understanding of the layout of Sosua from looking at maps, and slightly improved Spanish, I think Sosua will seem less daunting this trip.
One question I have, How long does it take by cab to get from the Puerto Plata Metro station to BBs? Would metro or Caribe Tours dump me off closer? Is the difference in distance between the two worth worrying about? Sadly, I have to fly into SDQ.
While we are on the topic of comparing different adult vacation resorts in PP, would it not be prudent to throw Oxygen in the mix. They are now moving from a package based model to an optional a la carte model making an apples for apples comparison with BB feasible.
In terms of money, quality of chicas and overall experience, how to BB and Oxygen stack up against each other?
I know BB has been around of longer and O2 is relatively new ( = 5 years)
Eperienced mongers, please do shed some additional light.
I haven't seen a whole lot of posts about people hooking up with Cupid girls from Puerto Plata. I was thinking about trying that and maybe spending a little less time on point and click in Sosua. Is there a reason people don't want to use Cupid in Puerta Plata besides the ease of pursuit otherwise. I would like to find one that speaks a little English and maybe spend a couple of quiet days in an apt / condo or AI at the end of my trip. Any advice, warnings, or other commentary is appreciated.

Basically 90% of mongers cannot afford to go there, and 90% of those who can would still prefer to have two holidays at Blackbeards or Field of Dreams for the same cost as one at Oxygen. That leaves the approximately 1% of mongers who do go to Oxygen and that is reflected in the small amount of reports from there. I wish them well, but they are only catering for a tiny slice of the market. Guys to whom money is no object and who do not enjoy the hunt, are not interested in experiencing the "real" DR in all its sleazy charm, and do not enjoy socializing with other mongers on their trip, which is a big part of the enjoyment for those of us who have made enduring friendships here.
If I were loaded I would enjoy doing a lot of things differently in the DR, but going to Oxygen still wouldn't be one of them. No refection on those that do, though. Each to his own.

You don't mention the main aid for mastering Sosua, which is meeting up with experienced mongers. If you are a decent guy and pay your own way, you should have no trouble befriending guys who can show you around and give you useful pointers. For starters, eat breakfast at Rocky's around 11. 30 and ask Rick, the manager, to introduce to trustworthy mongers. On no account put yourself into the hands of locals to show you around, but I expect you already know that.

More important is catching the first bus to leave Santo Domingo. Metro is considered the better bus company, but there is not a lot in it. Make sure you have a sweater at hand as the buses can be freezing cold and draughty and you don't want to spend the first week of your holiday with gripe.
Frustratingly, both companies drive past the entrance to Costambar on their way into Puerto Plata so you will have to retrace your route by taxi. I have often enquired whether it is possible to tip the driver to stop and let you off to avoid this, but have always been told this is one of the very few areas of Dominican life where a bribe won't work. Worth a try if you just have a backpack, though. If you have more luggage there would be no point as you would still need a taxi anyway.
Maybe 300 pesos and 10 minutes from the Caribe Tours depot and 350 and 15 minutes from Metro.

I shagged the one that won the Bikini contest. The one in the pink. She was pretty fun. Nice muff with just enough hair. Seemed like she kindof dug it. Liked to wiggle around and get flipped over. She didn't even mind laying there getting grubbed for awhile. Took plenty of time and layed around afterwards pretending she liked me.
I think I would like to spend more time there. The next morning when I was checking out, this little one showed up that smoked all the rest combined. She must have just got done gettin' drove through the mill for the past few days. Either that or she'd been off for her monthly break.
But if you go upstairs into the bar at night, don't make the mistake like I did and think you are in a gogo bar in Pattaya. Trying to slip the equivelent of a US dollar to her for some lovin just gets them raging pissed off. Haha.
I bet it would be a blast to spend a few months around there. Have a car full time, and maybe get a girlfriend in Santiago. That's where some of these chicks live.

My experience in BB was not bad but I felt the girls were bored being there. How can you blame them. So many girls and not that many guys. They seem to lounge around hoping somebody will pull there chain. Once you bust that nut most of the time they are off for the next guy. I like a little GF but did not get the feeling there was going to be much of that. Sosua spoiled me but I can understand why BB is strong with many guys. BB is a great way to get your feet wet.

[QUOTE=Exoticspirit; 1355235][B]Arrival To Blackbeard's[/B]
Once at Blackbeard's, the driver took me to reception where we were met by Tim, one of the gringo managers there. After Tim went through the lowdown on the resort and the process with the girls, I paid for the two nights stay at $70 each night for a standard room as well as the $45 US transfer from the POP airport. I also changed $300 US into DR pesos as Tim claimed that they were offering a rate around 38 better than the bank rate of 40. So the check-in was pretty efficient although I would have felt better if the initial online reservation with my credit card was done over a secure webpage which they didn't have.[/QUOTE]Is 38 better than 40?

Here is one, I'll let you look around and find her when your there.
I like to meet my cupid girl in a place other then their city. This give you an edge. You are more in control. Not to mention the chance of running to her old boy friends. If you meet in another city they know that they will be sleeping in a bed with you. Most enjoy being on vacation with you. It is something viewed as rich people stuff. They will sex you to your hearts content. I have never had a bes experience with my cupid girls. Most girls know what is up and what they bring to the table.

Other areas are much better for Cupid IMHO.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=Mr Enternational; 1357630]I have a few chicks from Cupid who live in Puerto Plata. However, I never stay in POP. They visit me in Sosua. Puerto Plata is just too fucking small dude. Case in point: Earlier this year I told a non-pro who I have been dealing with since my first time up north that I was driving back down to Santo Domingo to get my flight. Keep in mind that I was staying in Sosua and she had come to visit me there. She has a car and good job, etc. Well what my plan actually was was to meet up with one girl for a few minutes then I was going to stay at another chick's house in Puerto Plata for a couple of days. I had planned to meet the first girl at La Sirena which is on the malecon. I parked the car and went inside the store to check out the fine honeys. My regular girl kept calling me but I would not answer. The girl who I was waiting on was running late. I went back to the car to wait for her. Lo and behold my regular girl rides by, rolls down the window, and calls me a fucking liar and drives off. She has not talked to me since. But it is a good thing that the other girl was running late. She saw me alone. Just think what could have happened if the girl I was waiting for would have been on time.

Puerto Plata is ten times the size of Sosua in area and population. When I used to live in one gringo apartment block I had a certain circle of acquaintances. Since I have moved to another part of Puerto Plata I have bumped into some of them occasionally, but others I have not seen for two or three years although I know from mutual contacts, Facebook, or DR1 that they are carrying on their usual lives and routines. That would not happen if translated to Sosua where all activity is concentrated into a very much smaller area. I would be bumping into them every week or month.
Of course, if you hunker down with a chica in a villa or offbeat hotel and don't frequent the popular spots, you could avoid meeting people who know you or her, but that would equally apply in any town in the DR.
As I say, I don't want to comment on your central point as I know nothing about Cupid, just on the danger that a newbie casually reading your post might think that Puerto Plata is a village where everybody knows everybody's business and Sosua is a much larger city where you can lead a private life if you choose to, when exactly the opposite is the case. Funnily enough, I was discussing this only the other day with two ex-pats living in Sosua who, now that they have slowed down and the excitement of picking up hookers every night has worn off, are tired of living in the goldfish bowl and have asked me to look out for possible dwellings in Puerto Plata (where rents are cheaper too) where they can live more normal and private lives.
Incidentally, it does not surprise me that you were outed at La Sirena. I think 90% of the time I have met old acquaintances it has been at La Sirena, and two or three times I have arranged to meet people I didn't know we have chosen La Sirena as a well-known location. If anyone wants to meet discreetly, or to avoid being seen in public, La Sirena is the last spot in Puerto Plata to be. And if you just want to do your weekly shopping anonymously there are two other large supermarkets in Puerto Plata, unlike in Sosua.
[QUOTE=DownTowner; 1357873]Just ask Kristal or Rosa and they will tell you who you need to see. You could just ask the girl culo? A lot of the time they will but say for me not to tell any of the other girls. LOL.
Here is one, I'll let you look around and find her when your there.[/QUOTE]If I am not mistaken, I do believe that is Clarise.
Yeah CP. If you are a veteran Puerto Plata guy then more than likely you know other spots. But 9 times out of 10 if you are a visiting gringo then you will be on the malecon for all to see. Even when I ask chicas from there where to stay they tell me that one hotel that is on the malecon. And when I tell others I am there then they assume I am staying at said hotel as well. That is why I prefer to stay in Sosua. I would rather call girls to come from Puerto Plata to visit me there. That way there won't be a chance of getting caught. Hookers are hookers. I don't give a damn about them seeing me with someone else. That is why I pay them off to be drama free, but a nonpro is a different story. And as I have said before I have not heard of Sosua having a bad stigma among Dominicans the way mongers think. Everyone I know just says it is a town with a beach and won't shun you for staying there.
I am going to do this report in two parts because the first two days I stayed at BB and the next 5 days in Cabarete. Just like to state for the record over the years I have stayed all over the DR in all kinds of settings. I haven't been there in two years and probably won't be back for at least that time again as I much prefer other places. My friends were heading down (3 of them and really wanted me to join them so I reluctently did.) Got what I considered a good price on my flight out of Newark on United 478. 00 with one seat up grade on way down. I then took the business flight up grade once at the airport for 149. 00. Have always been able to get this upgrade out of Newark and always grab it. So My flight ended up being around 550. 00 round trip. Had a few glasses of wine ate breakfast, popped a sleeping pill (Zolpidem) which will knock you out with in minutes of taking it, and was fast a sleep for remainder of flight. Didn't wake up till I touched down. That was nice. Just like to comment about sitting at airport before flight, this is another thing I hate about POP flight. The flight is packed with a bunch of guys going down there to do what everybody and there mother knows. To me its just uncomfortable. Just my opinion.
Got quickly out of airport and was quickly met by my friend and rental car agent Jason from Savings rent a car. I have been renting from Jason for over 10 years and always have good service. I just text him when I will be there and ask for cash price and all is taking care of. Great guy. Just like to mention that my friends were arriving Sunday thru Thursday. I just couldn't see going for that short of time and arrived 3 days earlier as I know many people here and wanted to make my rounds. So off I went.
My first stop was at a friends home in the barrio. Had a couple beers and then on to Cabarete for a little Sun. I prefer cabarete to all other beaches in this immediate area. Got a massage and then a cadilac margarita at Jose O sheas and then headed for my drive to Blackbeards. Was feeling pretty damn good by now! Got to BB said hello to everyone, bought the chicas some beers and had a couple Double brugal aneyo's at the bar and then headed up to take a nice hot shower and put on some nice cloths. I like to dress nice when I travel, and this is another thing I don't prefer about the DR, most people walk around in shorts, sandals and tank tops at night. I do not prefer that. Keep in mind to each his own, its just not what I like. So after getting dressed and looking good I go down and get another Double Brugal and check out the girls and choose Sulaka who I know. We grab a drink to go and jump in my car. I feel like a steak so I take her to Puerto Plata on the circle is a restaurant I always go to called something like La Parridila (sp) I like it here, we drink a bottle of wine and eat some steaks and head back to bb. Have some more drinks here and then to the room. This girl has a nice firm body, nice tits and a small piercing on her lip. Nice BBBJ, total GFE. I like her. Now a good night sleep nice blowjob in the morning and another good fuck. I take a shower and leave her in the room as I always get up very early and don't expect this from the chica. Head down stairs and drink some coffee. Its maybe 6:45 am. Have a few coffees and by now its 8 am. Ready for a few nice OJ with some smirnoff and I head out in the car to Cabarete beach. Hit the beach another nice massage from my girl massage girl Natasha. I was on the beach by 10 and out of there by 4. I love the beach! Cabarete beach water is pretty damn nice and the waves were crashing nice, so I was in the waves a lot today. Very refreshing. On my way back to BB its now about 5 as I round the corner near Crystals I drive along the Ocean as I like the view. Stop at a few little bars here across from the Ocean and chit chat with a few locals very nice. Back to BB shower and Choose Kenya for the night. Sexy small spinner, total GFE. I take her to Pappion for dinner, she likes it very much. Its very nice and secluded the girls always appreciate being taken here. Tonight I feel like playing a little blackjack and I head over to the casino Ocean something? Anyway its a nice place been there many times. Play some blackjack give her some money for slots and all is good. Stop on way out at little bar on left its nice, its also a steak place but we already ate. We get a bottle of wine and sit at one of the tables directley on beach. Real nice. Back to BB one drink as I am feeling no pain and a nice romp in bed. Same thing in morning as yestereday but today is check out day. Say good by to the staff hand out some very nice tips to all the staff that are there and am on my way to Cabarete. Would just like to mention, unfortunately I did have a lot of cockroaches running around my room. I never had this problem before so my it was maybe a fluke but it was gross. I saw at least 4 cockroaches at different times. It would not stop me from staying again, but hopefully this won't happen again, its pretty sick seeing cockroaches running up the wall. I hate to even put this in the report but its only right to report the good and bad. I had a good time at BB and recommend it always for a couple days. The whole place is a lot of fun.
Today I stopped in Sosua for breakfast at Club Havana its very good and the two girls that work there are very nice. I Had a carribean omelet and a cappucino, followed by a double expresso. I like my coffee in the morning! Its now around 11 and I head to the Beach Palace in Cabarete to check in, this place is fucking killer, but pricey. But top of the line, marble thru out huge bed. Top of the line. I mean nice! Use to stay at Ocean Dreams which was real nice, but they don't allow chicas no more so I found this place. Glad I did its top of the line for DR! Definitely recommend. Rest of my report will be in Sosua Section.

It is almost Christmas and today I was approached by a young woman inside the La Sirena supermarket with a suggestion that we should go to a nearby cabana to assist with her Christmas shopping. Unfortunately I had other things to do and had to turn her down, but it is surprising how an episode like that can give you a rush of testosterone even if you don't really have any intention of going along with it.
Headed to BB's from December 19th through the 26th. Never been during the Christmas season and end times. If the world ends on the 21/22 I am glad I will be going out having some fun. I am taking a few electronic gifts. Just wanted to know if I will have any problems with customs? A couple of ipads and a nintendo game. Please let me know if you care to share a drink before the world ends. LOL.

My first trip to the Dr I was not in Monger mode yet. I was with a friend in Punt Cana standing in front of a bank. A cute young lady who looked like a young school teacher. Approaches as I was talking to couple kids selling candy. We engaged in quick conservation as she spoke some decent english. After five minutes of polite conversation she asked if I wanted my dick sucked. I was shocked. Shortly there after I realized that I could fuck 20 something women once again.

1600 peso short time 3600 all night. Or very close to that. I usually just give 2000, and 4000.

I was in D6 which over looks the Jaquizzi, like I said this was not a huge deal because I have stayed in this room and others and never had this problem. I just thought I should mention it because it happened. I like bb and would return without hesitation. Maybe like others said it was the rain or the previous occupant had some food or spilled something like soda. Never had this problem before and hopefully never will again. I really think it was aa fluke.

Is it because you are a local celebrity, Frannie?
Would not mind putting a Dominicana on my chrismas list, for sure.

But this to be completely expected from a tropical country and weather such as DR. BB by no means is unclean. It is extremely clean. It is the cleanliness of the girls that is more important to me than is the that of the room.
Can't go wrong with BB if you are into that sort of fishbowl hunting.
My report on Sosua, I arrived on Monday December 3rd where I met with my car from the real estate office and the young lady that I was speaking with on Tagged. Com all at the Puerto Plata airport. In a short drive to my rental The Palms which was $275 for week. I settled in with a six pack of el Presidentes and 1800 tequila which I got at the duty free store. The lady was very nice after speaking with her for about a year on Tagged. (Sorry I do not do photos because she never asked me for anything.) If she had I would post them in a minute. It is just a rule of mine. Since this was my first time to Sosua, I was interested in finding out more about the city and the locals which I heard so much about. But the first few days there it rain all the time. So I stayed in the room which was not bad at all, cable tv, refrig and stove which made economical if you wish to live of the economy. The lady loved it also because now she did not have to wear any cloths which was fine with me. She was short with a perfect ass and hand size breast. She was a treasure, never complained about anything which was fine with me. But she had to leave on Wednesday. So I gave her the rest of the tequila for her family and that brought a big smile to her face and just 1500 pesos for her time.
So once she left I contacted another friend from Tagged and I must say that her picture does not do her any justice whatsoever. This lady was down right beautiful the only problem that I saw was a slight pot belly which can easily be ignored once the cloths came off. We add a good time which I came twice then she had to leave. She wanted to get to the Rumba to pick up some more money before the night was over. I do not blame anyone for trying to get what they need for themselves or their family. This was only another 1500 pesos for the adventure. Then I also went to see D Latin & the Rumba. I must say this, if you can not get laid in Sosua then you have problems. It seems to me that everyone and I mean everyone is ready to serve. I looked at this and it reminded me of Osan AB in Korea in the late 70s. So I was like I been there and done that. No need to relive my earlier years. Went to the beach and found a friend Larry who gave me the up and up on the happenings. We talk for a few hours before we decided to talk later online. I got some bbq from Big D's and everyone told me that he was coming back here on Monday. So got home and went to bed alone this time I think I needed it. The next day I wanted to see what the places looked like at night so I stood on the corner by the Rumba just to get the real feel of the thing, then a young lady walked up who had a great body that I could see she wanted 2000 pesos and I said that I would give you 1500 pesos, what I usually do not like is women with piercing but she was nice and spoke a little English which was refreshing. She left after a very good session which I came in the back door a couple of times. Got up early the next day and walk the town just to sight see and ran up on these two women. One had a great ass and I was not really into doing anything that early in the morning. But they called me over and all they had to do was ask the question and we were off to my place. It has been a while since I had two and thought this would be interesting. We all were walking around the apartment with no cloths on, every half hour or so one would start the action while the other would watch. It was a great time, about 3 pm they both left and I was beat down with a smile on my face. Another 1500 pesos a piece. If you see the pattern, I will not go over that amount. So now it is Saturday and I did not feel up to anything watched a little tv and was sleeping most of the day. Got some chicken from the local stand which I have seen everyone going to and got a whole chicken for 250 pesos. Sunday came along and I decided not to do anything extreme which the Giants game in Spanish which is just as interesting, after the game was a little bored so I decided to take my last trip to town. As I was walking and standing outside D-Latin once again my piercing friend show up and we were off again. She stayed the night and we did not get any sleep. I felt that I could sleep on the plane. All in all I had a great trip, I think Sosua is a little over rated but it is what you desire from the trip. And if you want the best girl experience go to Tagged, you will be surprised what you get out of there.
I am still very impressed with Sosua. It is not a big fancy place but if you are looking to have sex with pretty young girls BINGO. I use dominican cupid for my GF non pro action. I would never bring a chica to Sosua. The ultimate in sand to the beach.

DR Nights was professional in all of our dealings, as you would expect from the apparent second largest agency in the country. I contacted Marc months early because I wanted a girl to join me at a nudist resort who spoke English. He said there shouldn't be a problem, just look at the girls in their "Local Services" list and fill in the reservation form. I looked and made notes of the English speakers but didn't make a reservation right then because I expected there might be some turn over during the intervening months.
When I finally made my reservation I sent them the names of four girls who were bi-lingual but then I didn't hear back. I finally called and my reservation was still open because I hadn't entered my flight information. I explained that I was coming in two weeks before I needed the girl and leaving a week after we parted. They apologized for the mistake and my reservation was immediately processed. They ran my credit / debit card and my bank suspended my account for the second time, afraid someone had stolen my card. I straightened out my bank but it was suggested to me by experienced travelers that I should have notified my bank that I was planning to travel out of the country so they wouldn't be so paranoid. (And they could give me a list of banks in the country of destination that were on their network.)
One bit of confusion with the website was that they only have actual offices in Punta Cana and Puerto Plata. On the website they list a bunch of places a girl can be delivered to but you have to pay a delivery fee. I needed to do some sight seeing in Puerto Plata so I scheduled to pick up Larimar in Playa Dorada at Coco Bongo. Buying a local phone and purchasing twelve dollars worth of minutes proved very helpful as Coco Bongo filled up with Anglos just before our appointment time. Apparently (Max) was early and waited for half an hour before he called me. (I'd been there an hour, had lunch and drinks.) Larimar was the girl in the picture but she's had her breasts enlarged since the picture was taken. She was great, snuggling and kissing in the taxi all the way to the resort. She'd never been to a nudist resort and it took some getting used to but she remembered that Marc had told her she didn't need to bring any clothes as she would be naked the whole time. (She brought two bags and an over stuffed suitcase that was even more stuffed with two dinner costumes and a Playboy towel I had given her before she left.)
Larimar was great, very affectionate, outgoing and considerate (she made sure I was satisfied at least twice a day). But she didn't get naked in public. She was naked in the room and she wore a sheer beach dress but until she saw that other women had implants she was embarrassed to take off her bra. Then she had it off the rest of the day. We almost had sex on the beach but she was too shy. But back in the room she wasn't shy in the least and she told me later how much she'd enjoyed the foreplay on the beach.
Her English was far from perfect but she was easy to understand and she made sure that people understood my poor Spanish and that I got what I had ordered.

The forms on the website require specific information that might not match your situation and their computer won't process a reservation until all the boxes are filled. Also they require a credit card to process a deposit (Unless you have worked with them before) even in you're in country and minutes away. (And they want to photocopy your credit card and passport so their credit company has no questions about your order being real.)
In Conclusion.
Larimar and DR Nights lived up to their hype and I couldn't be happier. The resort was beautiful, the women were warm and stunning, and I would recommend this opportunity for everyone. If you are reading this, and asking yourself if it could be real. It is. Each day of a DR Nights vacation is equal to a week of regular vacation. Do not question yourself further.

DR nights should be added to the list of Ten Things To Do Before You Die.
Thanks Dude.
I see their website states "Prices are decent starting out at $790 US for 2 nights and 2 girls". I hate to think what their idea of an indecent price is. Anyone with half a brain and who reads the wh o reboards can have a great time in the DR for US$100 to US$200 per night without needing to book ahead, or use a credit card, or commit to a chica you have never seen in the flesh.
Still, each to his own.
Hi Charles,
If you read carefully their webiste you have also the option to pay cash on arrival. This option is available to all clients.
You can go down and see for yourself, once you believe, you pay (This option is not available on Private villas only resort bookings. Private villas require a min. 30 percent deposit).
I opted for a Private Villa.
Before deciding which girl will be your companion you get to see them in flesh at you arrival. It was a personal decision to pick a girl before getting there. Usually a client upon arrival gets their very own reception party, where they line up at least 15-30 Girls, this is where you will mingle and choose which girl is worthy of being your main companion and which girls will be your daily 2 hr. Companions.
Merry Christmas.

I have often thought you were a little off but was never sure. This man may drive Mercedes while you like Kia's. No one is right. I think maybe you are a cheap MF. I pay 1000 to 1500 for short term. This is the norm. Truthfully I would never pay $750 in DR for a month of fucking. I doubt if their pussies got any wetter then my 1500 peso chica and I have had some stunners for this price. The most important thing is the guy was happy. It was his money and his decision you need to respect that. He probaly thinks you are a cheap MF for nickle and diming poor DR chicas.

Old Kool, I have never been one to go to a place and do as all the foreigners do. I'm not trying to raise any chica's economic status beyond that of what a local would. When I first arrive to a place that I have never been I hop in a taxi and ask him where are all of the fuck spots and how much do YOU pay the girls. Forget how much a vacationing foreigner wants to give a girl. Most guys are always comparing prices to back home which makes no sense at all. And why should I pay more than what the girl is willing to take? Because I want to show her I'm a nice guy? Fuck that. 100+ countries and it has not failed me yet. I'm not around there to feel sorry for anybody. If you feel that sorry for them then just go around passing out money without fucking them. That is sure to prove what a nice guy you are.
Besides you have been on this forum long enough to know that when someone with 1 post shows up and starts "advertising" for an expensive place that it is not because they have been a patron there, but because they are trying to drum up business for themselves and to rip off gullible foreigners who don't know their ass from a hole in the ground.

Though I agree with most of what you wrote there are instances whereas paying that kind of money is warranted. The poster could be a high profile CEO or attorney with more than enough money whereas the price means nothing but absolutely needs anonymity and discretion of the highest level in addition to having no spanish skills and no travel experience of this nature. My first sex vacation I dropped over 15K for me and a friend to travel to this type of place in Cartagena. At the time I was married and was the owner of a large corporation and made enough money where the 15K was worth the price for 10 days of banging top shelf Colombianas along with having my best buddy with me and being waited on hand and foot with an english speaking "guide", chef and penthouse. I knew ZERO spanish at that time. To this day it still is one of the best vacations of my life. I would never pay that kind of money now but I have learned spanish and have many many solo trips to the DR and Colombia.
One other point, the owner of DR Nights used to swing through FOD on a regular basis with his harem in tow and I have to say he had the absolute best of the best looking girls you will ever see in the DR. I have had plenty of hot girls in my life so looks is secondary to performance always but the fact of the matter is that when it comes to top shelf girls appearance-wise he has the inventory, believe me.
Please understand that I am NOT shilling for this place, I cringe as much as the next guy when I hear these prices but bottom line is there is a market for this kind of service.

There is no such thing as anonymity anymore. There are always people who not only see or know something, but who are willing to tell. I think Save Pros was the first to post this story:
[url]http://dailycaller.com/2012/11/01/women-sen-bob-menendez-paid-us-for-sex-in-the-dominican-republic/[/url]
Two women from the Dominican Republic told The Daily Caller that Democratic New Jersey Sen. Bob Menendez paid them for sex earlier this year.
In interviews, the two women said they met Menendez around Easter at Casa de Campo, an expensive 7, 000-acre resort in the Dominican Republic. They claimed Menendez agreed to pay them $500 for sex acts, but in the end they each received only $100.
The women spoke through a translator in the company of their attorney, Melanio Figueroa. Both asked that their identities remain obscured for fear of reprisals in the Dominican Republic.
When shown a photograph of Sen. Menendez, the women said they recognized him as the man with whom they'the had sexual relations at Casa de Campo this spring. Both said they were brought to the resort with the understanding they would be paid for sex.
Neither knew the identity of the man at the time. Both claimed to recognize him later as Sen. Menendez.
'He called him[self] 'Bob, ' said one.
One woman said Menendez wooed her with compliments like 'beautiful' before they slept together. The other woman recounted, with apparent bitterness, receiving from an intermediary only $100 of the $500 she had been promised.
'He lies, ' she said of Menendez. 'He says one thing and does another. '

One day he tries to leave to go back to his boring accounting job in NYC, and he gets slapped with an "Impedimiento de Salida" by Izzies uncle, Sr Martinez, the acting Fiscal of Sabaneta. Poor Jimmy had to surrender the title to the house he built the love of his life Izzie or surrender his US passport. This is a true story.
About a year later he returns to the scene of the crime and tells Lou he will buy The Old Shark Baratstall #66 on Sosua Beach. Who does Captain Save.a- Hoe have run the bar, you guessed it, Izzie. What does Izzie do? She sells off all of the inventory when nobody was looking. Some guys will never learn.

I am a healthy and active man in his late 40's. I have had three failed marriages and multiple relationships that were doomed to failure from the start. I was feeling lonely one day and was researching singles resorts. I found many to my liking. They all seemed to lack something. I then stumbled upon The Dominican Republic (DR) as a vacation destination. I found a few exclusive 'Adults Only' resorts. Still, something was missing. Did I really want a vacation where I had to 'work' to look for a companion? I did a simple search and was rewarded by finding Dr Nights Adult Vacations.
I was surprised about the diversity of packages offered. Marc, my VIP host, was very helpful in choosing the right one. I had a hard time deciding upon a girl. So, I chose at first one girl. As I said in my last post I contacted Marc months early because I wanted a girl to join me at a nudist resort who spoke English.
I chose one girl for the first three nights and another girl for the remainder of the trip. I added two other options for more diversity. WOW! I had the stay of a lifetime. I was greeted at the airport by a company rep and taken to the grocery store as I had requested. I was then taken to the most astounding tropical villa I had seen on the islands. I could go on and on.
The girls were top notch. I never wanted for anything. I was cooked for, cleaned for, and pampered in every which way.
I am looking forward to my next trip in April. 2013.
Sincerely,
TravelDude69

What a nightmare. Having a child with a Dominican girl. I love dominican women but can you imagine the phone calls and stress of having a child living in the DR. I have seen many gringos with babies there. I had a novia who a daughter by a gringo. I got to know him. He was miserable but girl knew all the legal steps she needed.

I have had ZERO problems other than trying to get my daughters mother to agree to sign the papers in order for her to receive a USA passport. I think they are afraid I will find a way to take her out of the country but that is impossible without her written permission and even though I have told the entire family this and shown it to them in writing I just don't think they believe it. She has taken no legal steps whatsoever but then again I send her money every month without fail.
The reason I want her to have the passport is so that she can have the option to attend a USA university when the time comes, a degree from a USA school holds much more weight in Colombia than a Colombian degree. It is much harder to obtain a passport when they get older, the best time to do it is when they are very young.
I have had intentions of moving to Colombia but have had some personal setbacks here in the USA that have delayed me. I have full intentions on obtaining a visa based on the fact that I am the father of a Colombian national. In order to do this my daughters mother has to sign papers stating that I financially support my daughter, I am not afraid of this at all because I do support her and would never even think of doing otherwise, not a lot of money but enough to make sure my daughter has what she needs. I travel there often and keep an eye on where the money goes.
I offered many times to move my ex-novia and my daughter to the USA and she has no interest in doing so, I was surprised by that initially but the family bond in Colombia is so tight that she could never leave her parents behind especially her mother.

I have had ZERO problems other than trying to get my daughters mother to agree to sign the papers in order for her to receive a USA passport. I think they are afraid I will find a way to take her out of the country[/QUOTE]Chicks all over Latin America are afraid of this.
[QUOTE=Manizales911;1365334]She has taken no legal steps whatsoever but then again I send her money every month without fail.[/QUOTE]What legal steps could she possibly take? You are in another country. It's hard enough getting Colombianos to give anything in Colombia and Americanos to give anything in America. For the law in Colombia to get an American to send something to Colombia. Well fat chance.
[QUOTE=Manizales911;1365334]I offered many times to move my ex-novia and my daughter to the USA and she has no interest in doing so, I was surprised by that initially but the family bond in Colombia is so tight that she could never leave her parents behind especially her mother.[/QUOTE]It sounds like your ex is pretty smart. I offered my ex-Colombiana to come on a fiancee visa for 3 months. I would send her to English class, teach her how to drive, and she could get to know my family and my city to see how she liked it and if she would have any problem adjusting. She said no because she wanted to get married first. I just couldn't get it into her how stupid it is to permanently move to a place you have never been with people you have never met, who speak a language you do not know. She suggested that my family visit Cali to meet her. She was missing the point entirely. From there we broke up but remain friends.

[QUOTE=TravelDude69; 1364931]. I chose one girl for the first three nights and another girl for the remainder of the trip. I added two other options for more diversity. WOW! I had the stay of a lifetime. I was greeted at the airport by a company rep and taken to the grocery store as I had requested. I was then taken to the most astounding tropical villa I had seen on the islands. I could go on and on.
The girls were top notch. I never wanted for anything. I was cooked for, cleaned for, and pampered in every which way.
I am looking forward to my next trip in April. 2013.
Sincerely,
TravelDude69[/QUOTE]How long were you there for? I checked out the DR Nights' website and all the packages offered seem to be for two of three nights. I really need a 'relaxation' vacation where I can unwind for a couple weeks. I'm thinking of maybe six or seven nights at DR Nights and then move on to another resort for the remainder of the trip.
Yes, it is minimum two girls at Dr Nights. I decided to chose one girl for the first three nights. But thats just me. I was there for a week.
I will wait until next month and sign up for a 3 month membership so I can keep an eye out for which girls I would like to see and keep in touch since I am planning my next trip in April 2013. I already signed up for the affiliate program and started referring people to come down and odds are there will be a few of us and we will probably do the villa thing.

I got one now after 3. 5 years wants to get married, my mind says no, cheaper to keep her in Colombia pay her rent, college etc, the Catch 22 of bringing them here is you sign a Affidavit of Support to the government which states no matter what you are responsible for her and if she applies for support from the gov in any way shape or form they will sue you, that and I don't want to get married. In time maybe the Laws will change to allow a girl to enter the USA on a large bond from you and in a quicker time than 6 months but I doubt that time is near.
The main reason to travel is because is it cheaper than fucking around in the USA . When you think about bringing them back, think again. If you can survive a divorce and child support after the judge throws your pre-nup out the window than more power to you.

I travel and fuck because it is so easy to disconnect, I just hop on a plane. In the US there is always some fallout of a relationship, women don't like losing. In the US its a competition. Women arent very understanding when you want to be alone, they look at it as being disrespectful.
I really don't get guys that marry these Dominicanas and move them to the States. Most don't adjust well to other cultures. Most don't have domestic skills. They are just an arm trophy. The Asians are more submissive and traditional. Colombianas make beautiful babies but I hear they are materialistic when brought to the US. But marry a Dominicana and move them to the States? You need your head examined because something must be wrong with you mentally. The Canadians marry these girls regularly and six months later they are in El Flow fucking around. I don't know of ANY success stories when exporting Dominicanas.
Several girls I know have friends who have married or are living with foreign guys. This gives them hope that some day their prince or sucker will come.

I was pleased to learn that D* married and moved to the USA. I saw some of her photos and outside of dealing with the cold on NY she seems to be adjusting. I know at least 6 women (all from BB's) that are living the USA now with a mixed bag of results but most are positive.
When I first started to go the DR it all about the numbers for me. How many girls. Once in a while I made a bit more of a connection. I was generous to a fault with all of then. As my Spanish abilities grew I was able to get to know the girls on a different level which made my experiences better. I also understood that many (not all) believed that the lifestyle was affording their children / family a better life. I am sure we know what the job prospects are for an uneducated women from the DR are. Several women I know that have degrees from a University and can not find work. As discussed in earlier posts the education system in the DR is broken and the Private Schools (where most of the girls pay to send their children) are not much better.
I hope we here of more success stories like D* as she is a wonderful person.
I'm thinking about learning some Dominican dances while staying at BB.
Any ideas where to find a teacher in Costambar or maybe use some chica as a teacher?
However, I can understand the choice chicas make. Life in poverty is not the best alternative. If chica can find a husband in the States, I suppose she is really smart.

As for the guys treating girls badly, I think that social stigma associated with profession is the main reason. Those treating girls like shit don't know what they are loosing.

And prices for most things in the DR are comparable to in the US. Mostly a hand to mouth existence, and little chance for getting ahead (car, house).
Compared to that, prostitution offers much better money, but with its own costs.
Most mongers there are not Brad Pitt, or Denzel Washington, and some get off on treating a chica like a "worthless ho,"
So I don't begrudge a girl for earning more than a laborer or office worker; she earns the money she makes.
(Imagine your enthusiasm for giving oral sex to an ugly, fat, old, or drunk, obnoxious woman).
Its a rare chica that doesn't spend the money as fast as she earns it. If not on herself, on her kids, etc.
Most choose to live well in the present, as they seem incapable of planning far into the future. And really can't count on tomorrow.
The girls appreciate it when a guy treats them well (meaning with a little consideration or respect). It makes the work much easier, and they dread, and try to avoid, the abusive types if possible.
The absolute best thing that can happen to a chica is if a guy offers them a way off the island; its like winning the lottery.
A chance to live in a functional society, a job that pays a decent living, etc.
There is very little to look forward to in the DR, unless one comes from a wealthy family.
Some marry just for the papers, (who could blame them?) but I can't label them all the same. I believe some actually have feelings for a guy who treats them well.
Would avoid going that route until after one really gets to know the girl really well. And you can't do that with pointy-talky Spanish.

You can get taxi from STI to Santiago Caribe Tours or Metro bus station for $20. You could negotiate with taxista en route re all the way to BB.

First, at the airport there is public transport into Santiago. First option is if you travel light, take a taxi to the rotunda, then a guagua, small bus to Puerto Plata. Guaguas leave every few minutes. The taxi should cost around 500 pesos from the airport. Always ask the price before getting into a taxi. The guagua will let you off at the entrance to Costumbar. Take a motorcycle taxi from there. 100 pesos. The 2nd option is more expensive. Take the taxi to a CaribTours bus to Puerto Plata, then a motorcycle taxi will back track to Costumbar for about 100 pesos. Good luck. Worth the trip

Taxi to Caribe Tours = about $25.
Caribe Tours, STI to POP (downtown) = about $3 US.
Taxi from POP Caribe Tour station to BB, = about $25 US.
This may be rehashing, but if you arrive late in STI, you'd be better off getting a room for the night.
For cheap digs, suggest you look up "AirBNB" on the web. Cheap rooms in private apartments / residences.
Should be able to find overnight accomodations for about $35 US.
Then in the morning, look at options 2 through 4 above.

No one reccommends the place. [QUOTE=Joe Shmoe;1370013]How is PP different from Sosua in terms of mongering, why would someone pick PP as opposed to the more popular Sosua? When I was in Sosua, I stopped by PP just for Crystal's as recommended by a cab driver.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=Joe Shmoe;1370013]How is PP different from Sosua in terms of mongering, why would someone pick PP as opposed to the more popular Sosua? When I was in Sosua, I stopped by PP just for Crystal's as recommended by a cab driver.[/QUOTE]Puerto Plata is eight times the population and area of Sosua but there is far less point and click mongering with full-time working girls as far as gringos are concerned. If you have some of the necessary assets Pto Pta is way better for picking up non-pros or semi-pros. I define semi-pros as chicas who don't get up in the morning hoping or expecting to sell their bodies for cash as they have other main sources of income (a job or living off their families or boyfriends) but would often grab the opportunity to do so if offered.
Everyone should visit Cristal once just for the experience as there is no similar place on the North Coast, though several in Santo Domingo. Drinks and chicas are rip-off prices but some guys take phone numbers and arrange meetings when chicas are off duty. This is not as easy as it sounds as most of the girls are indentured labor. To me it isn't worth the hassle but some guys think they are getting some sort of bargain by doing this. The girls can look very different without their skimpy dresses and masses of make-up. To me, they look better in civvies but no different or better than those at Blackbeards, Field of Dreams or elsewhere so why bother?
I always find Cristal rather sad. So many attractive girls (some of them very sweet and not at all hardcore) and so few customers. I have rarely seen more than 8 or 10 guys there, and some of those paying no attention to the girls, with 30 or 40 chicas.
Dates: 12/30/12 to 1/6/13. Jenny's market exchange rate during trip: 40. 05 increasing to 40. 20 pesos to the USD. 1,000 pesos=$24. 88. BB's short time 1, 600 pesos ($39. 80) long time / all night 3, 000 pesos ($74. 63). Note the slight discount for LT."Happy hour" daytime 2-1 special rumored at 3, 000 pesos, did not partake.
Left home way early for my northeastern US airport right at the tail end of an 8 inch snowstorm. Plane left miraculously on time and I was the first person in line at the TSA gate. Watched them open it, nobody else around. Allowed in and had the entire airport to myself for about 15 minutes. Eerie. Full plane with a socially inadequate older Latina lady on my left and a heavy coughing guy on the aisle. He was sick, Ebola I think. Mr. Ebola guy liked to cough into my uncovered orange juice as I was sleeping. Entered the "denial" phase first (He's not that sick, maybe he's not contagious anymore?) Then my "bargaining" phase began (maybe his disease has a long incubation period and I won't get the ebola till after my trip?) Only thing I did get was a mild case of the trots towards the end of the trip. Caught my MIA connection to POP and got there early too. Nice. No free rum samples this time after paying the usual $10 tourist fee. What's up with that? Instead, they had some semi-hot way too light skinned barbie dolls (not representative of the real DR) wave to us before we ambled on by the meregue band guys. OK, whatever.
Original plan called for meeting 3 severely experienced monger friends at Sosua but couldn't match their itinerary. Fuck Sosua, I'm sick of that place anyway. My friends report the scene there declining but Passions remains a safe bet, though more coin than your usual street skanks of course, but predictable. Met my appointed taxi mafia ride at POP as planned, sent by BB's. No need to pay him direct, its added to your bill on arrival. Obligatory stop at Jenny's market, Costambar for dinero exchange on the way in, better rate than elsewhere on the North Coast. Counting party ensued as exactly $1, 000 USD became $40, 050 of monopoly money. Love the plastic 20 peso notes. I passed by my friends walking back from an errand, giving them the finger as I drove on by. Fuckers! How dare you come here without me for 3 days. Paid my room bill upon arrival in pesos as usual, another counting party. This is my 7th or 8th BB's trip. Lost count.
Pounded out my share of chicas but took it easy on the booze early having had a routine colonoscopy only 2 days earlier. Felt OK though, just wanted to pace myself. Basically 2 chicas per day more or less worked for me. Took a night off one night but did 3 on another day. Went to the beach to swim only once just to say that I did. Had a couple of meals offsite. Enjoyed a good pizza with the boys on night #1 at Sola Mia's Italian joint around the corner. Very good. Will repeat. Ate the vast majority of meals at BB's. Cost of a good breakfast $8-$11 depending on how much you pig out. A good 4 course dinner at BB's will run you maybe $18-25 depending on appetite. 10% tip included on all bar / meal tabs. I support this, no need to tip but a few clinkers on the table for good service goes a long way. BB's booze prices up a bit owing to govt. Taxes and other bullshit. A Presidente beer at 120-130 pesos now. Room prices remain the same. Mine was $60 USD per night and was fine. Uber clean as always, try not to trip over the maids. Tipped my maid $20 at the end of my stay and left her some of my old clothes from home. I do this every time. Enjoyed hanging out with my team and we met a couple of other cool guys that we vetted and embraced as our own. The boys left me on 1/2/13 and BB's became a target rich environment as other guests left after New Years as well. Probably less than 1/2 full, if that, but place was booked upon my arrival on 12/30/12. Took a side trip with the team to FOD for diversion. FOD was dead with no real lookers, mostly the usual single mom street chicas looking for a trick. I get that.
The Chicas at BB's took to calling me,"El Diablo", the devil. I'm nice to them of course but they do talk with each other about us, just as we do about them. Spent many moments in the Jacuzzi warming up with a chica before pounding it out later in the room. After nutting so many times, it usually takes me a good 1/2 hour of solid pounding it out to get off. Hey, its good cardio! Most of the girls seemed to appreciate my 30-45 minutes per day "stairmaster" at home workout stamina performance initially, but even they can get worn out after a while. Word got around. Good workouts for me though. Not my problem, I'm on vacation, need my exercise. Would like the BB's jacuzzi to be 5 degrees warmer but if it was summer the temp would be about right I guess. Weather was pleasant, not too warm at all, comfortable, only a little rain. Nights were almost too cool.
Left on 1/5/13 with heavy heart. As it was "Little Christmas" that day, American naturally oversold the MIA flight. Nine (9) fellow gringos took up AA's offer for the $700 flight voucher, free hotel room (Playa Dorada for me) and round trip taxi service. So I flew out the next day instead. Had to wait till the flight was boarded to finally get our voucher, room, and ride. Took way too long, but that's the typical Dominican way, isn't it? AA put me up at the "Celuisma Tropical Playa Dorada Resort & Spa" located inside the infamous Playa Dorada compound. Fucking dump, typical "all inclusive" tourist gulag, only way below standard. Deferred maint. Is the order of the day here. Had to take the top off my shitter every single time I needed to flush my turd. Typical buffet pabulum left out just long enough to allow the big, black flies sufficient time to finish their meals. Hey, flies got to eat too! I had the shits by this time anyway so my food intake was somewhat limited. The place was populated with lower middle class Gringo elderly couples, families with kids, and some younger M / F couples whose chucklehead spouses and / or boyfriends really ought to know better than to take their women to a shitehole place like this. Have some fucking class man. My room was an ice box, needed a sleeping bag just to sleep. Upon arrival and my obligatory 360 degree inner / outer security perimeter check, decided to grab a beer at some Hard Rock Cafe knockoff place in their little town center a short walk away. Enjoyed my 400 peso beer. Place was nearly empty. Bought a big bottle of drinking water as hotel instructions warned against the tap water. Nice. Nothing but lots of empty faux stores and other empty resort "restaraunts" inside the Celuisma, along with plenty of young Dominican kids pissing in their pool. Their beach was fairly adequate though. Tried as I might not to be noticed at their mess hall, I stood out nevertheless, reading back issues of my local newspaper. The coffee was good.
Took a short run on the beach next morning just to say that I did and entered their mess hall in full workout sweat mode. Retrieved my own silverware and dug in with the other tourist acting like locusts stripping a eucalyptus tree. My driver was blissfully early at my 1:00 PM checkout so I took him across the street to FOD as part of his training. How the fuck does ANY local taxi driver NOT know about this place. He appreciated his training. Nobody was there but the usual street skanks waiting on tricks. Flew out a few hours later, late owing to the typical clusterfuck of passengers not knowing how to board a plane.

I usually spend one night in the all inclusive (s) at Juan Dolio before flying out of SDQ. Compared to BB and some of the places I have stayed in Soaua the AI's are crap. My last trip I stayed at the Coral Costa Caribe and the place was horrible poor food and maintenance were the norm. Place was about half full and the casino only had half the tables as they did last year. Stayed at Barcelo Capella Beach Resort last year and it was much better but still had issues with room maintenance. The food / beach and entertainment at Barcelo Capella Beach Resort was much better than Coral Caribe. Main reason for the AI is that my female friend likes to stay there and I can take some tourist pictures for the family.
I have wondered if the AI's in PP are worse than the JD and PC AI's since what I have read that most are either closed or running at low capacity.

Cristals was very weak, my wing and I went in there and we were the only ones there. Slowly, girls starting coming out to the stage giving us the eye. There was a total of maybe 5 girls but it was early evening. Only stayed for a drink and then bounced. I thought one of the waitresses was very nice, I should have tried talking to her you never know. Maybe next time.

I am planning on being in DR from March 4 to March 10. My orginal plan was to spend the first 4 days in Sosua, then head to Blackbeards to finish off the vacation. As it gets closer I am having second thoughts on going to Blackbeards. I have been there so many times and get board after a day or 2. The beach there isn't that great and the area doesn't have much going on like Sosua does. Anyhow I still may stop by for one of the disco nights, have a meal and say hello to some of the chicas I am friends with. Instead of going to Blackbeards I would most likely spend my entire trip in Sosua. The other option would to go to field of dreams where I have never been. How is the area around field of dreams? I know it's right by the playa dorada complex. Will there be things to do or will I get board just like at Blackbeards? If thats the case maybe I should plan on spending my entire trip in Sosua and either vist Blackbeards and Field of Dreams for one night each or something like that.
If anyone has any opinons that would be great.
Thanks

Take a publica taxi, they load up as many as can fit in the car, but for 40 pesos, can't go wrong, they'll leave you off at the entrance to FOD, first look for the big sign for the New York restaurant, right after is FOD. Just watch your pockets when you get out of the car. I've been pick-pocketed a couple of times, both in Santiago. Get back on the road and flag a publica to Sosua. Easy, unless you have a lot of baggage. What's the point of a lot of baggage. This is the tropics.

Public car advice:
- avoid the front seat to improve your chance of survival and escaping injury in case of accident.
- buy at least two seats and preferably 4 seats for comfort and for safety from pickpockets, you can also make a deal for the entire car.
- know the route to avoid being driven to an unsafe location and robbed.
Have fun.

[url]http://www.oxygenretreat.com/resort-gallery/sex-resort-gallery-relaxation.html[/url][/QUOTE]O, scroll down on the DR homepage and read the thread for Oxygen. RTFF. The place is real but pricy and the girls, generally speaking, are way hotter than the typical street skanks in Sosua and they are a notch above BB's. BB's still gives the best overall value for the $$ though and I would recommend it. I just got back from BB's, read trip report under Puerto Plata. One of my wingmen at BB's did a short trip to O2 about 2 months ago as he had money to burn. For the record, I was graciously given a tour of the place by its owner about 2 years ago so saw their physical plant firsthand. For the record, the o2 owner had kind words to say about BB's. O2 looked totally first rate to me on my 30 minute tour. I spoke with 6 guests there at their bar who raved about the place. My friend reports his experience was very good 2 months ago with outstanding food, smoking hot box, validated by other posters. Price level there is the absolute highest you should pay in the DR however. I've spoken to other experienced mongers at BB that had aweful, ripoff experiences at these other totally way overpriced AI sex places. One in Boca Chica uses regular beach girls, nothing special. Others in the POP area with really awesome looking websites will just gouge you for ridiculous coin and operate out of rented quarters often moving around. O2 at least owns his property. It's not often really busy at O2 however owing to their cost, but at least they deliver on promises. Bottom line: O2 if you have coin and value your privacy, and BB's if you're not wealthy and enjoy a bit more interaction with like minded guys. O2 is isolated but safe, BB's less isolated with a bit more to do off site or 10 minutes taxi ride away.

Please RTTF under the "Puerto Plata" thread where I have a detailed trip report from last week. Short story: American bumped me from my oversold flight in exchange for a $700 voucher, free round trip taxi to hotel, and free night at a Playa Dorada resort. I took the deal of course. Playa Dorade was totally dead and it looked like to me on my recon at least one of their compound's "resorts" was shut down. Might not be the only one. My wingmen and I took a side trip to FOD from BB's. Dead at the time with the usual street skanks looking for work. 1-2 hotties there when we went. We passed. I stopped by FOD again on my way back to POP to educate my driver. Same deal, same skanks hanging around the bar. Hey, who knows, YMMV if you stay at FOD. If you're a golfer, plan on having the Playa Dorada course almost to yourself. I don't play but if I did I would dig that. My wingmen spent 2 days one night in Sosua and the scene is declining. The bars that were open had an abousive noise level, complete turnoff, and were empty from their observation. Noise level soooo high it was painful to their ears. Yes, there's still plenty of pussy but its running down, tourism is off, chicas are desparate, acting stupid, calling cops to guys rooms, yadda yadda. I'm turned off by Sosua right now. Just tired of that nonsense.
I think the way to go is BB first. Sosua is way more action then BB. If you do Sosua first you will be bored with BB. BB may be to unwnind after you wild out in Sosua.

[QUOTE=ItalnStallion99; 1372586]I am planning on being in DR from March 4 to March 10. My orginal plan was to spend the first 4 days in Sosua, then head to Blackbeards to finish off the vacation. As it gets closer I am having second thoughts on going to Blackbeards. I have been there so many times and get board after a day or 2. The beach there isn't that great and the area doesn't have much going on like Sosua does. Anyhow I still may stop by for one of the disco nights, have a meal and say hello to some of the chicas I am friends with. Instead of going to Blackbeards I would most likely spend my entire trip in Sosua. The other option would to go to field of dreams where I have never been. How is the area around field of dreams? I know it's right by the playa dorada complex. Will there be things to do or will I get board just like at Blackbeards? If thats the case maybe I should plan on spending my entire trip in Sosua and either vist Blackbeards and Field of Dreams for one night each or something like that.
If anyone has any opinons that would be great.
Take a publica taxi, they load up as many as can fit in the car, but for 40 pesos, can't go wrong, they'll leave you off at the entrance to FOD, first look for the big sign for the New York restaurant, right after is FOD. Just watch your pockets when you get out of the car. I've been pick-pocketed a couple of times, both in Santiago. Get back on the road and flag a publica to Sosua. Easy, unless you have a lot of baggage. What's the point of a lot of baggage. This is the tropics.[/QUOTE]
Spent a week at BB during new years and had a blast. Met some real cool guys including geolopes and his crew. Mega thanks again for letting me hang out with you guys.
BB if I had to compare it to anything is sort of a DR version of the Cocal in Costa rica except the girls here are employees not freelancers like in CR.
There are set prices and rules for the chicas to follow. The rooms are nice and one thing I'd like to complement the owner on is the prices. Unlike other places.
They don't overcharge too much at the bar / restaurant / in room fridge. This may sound minor but if you travel a bit it gets annoying being overcharges in so many places. The food quality is very good at BB's for those who want to know. Typical day on my trip was sleep in, breakfast, grab a 3some for lunch, nap, hit the beach, grab a chica for jacuzzi, nap, hit the bar and meet fellow mongers, grab a chica for the night. The owner is very friendly and on top of things and most of the guys there are pretty cool to chat with. Didn't have any major problems with the girls but you just need to make sure to be able to say no since a lot of them will try and book you for future conquests. Sounds fun at the time but you'll feel silly when you see new talent arriving and your already pre-booked. It's no Sosua but thank god for that, this is a place for guys who don't want the BS that Sosua is.

The food there is very appetizing and that along with the drinks are very reasonably priced.
Anyone on this flight and heading to bbs. Lands at 1207 pm. Or the aa from jfk lands the sametime. Would like to share taxi to bbs.
Thanks
i will try to do a comprehensive report of my trip before it falls out of my head. i spent 2 days at bbs. 2 days at fod, and 3 nights in sosua. this section of the report will only cover bbs and fod. i will save sosua for the sosua section.
day 1:
i made the mistake of flying into santo domingo this trip because the cost difference was significant compared to flying into santiago. the transit time is just too much to be worth it. it shaved a day off mongering really. i did have a small portion of adventure on the way. while i studied spanish extensively in school, i had not spoken any for two years since my last trip. at this stage in the trip i wasn't picking up much of what was being said to me.
i arrived in santo domingo and headed to an atm in the airport to get some pesos. the transaction appeared to work, but no money came out of the dispenser. confused and a little annoyed, i decided to avoid airport atms and continued to the taxi area. luckily this atm anomaly did not lead to any money being drawn from my account. of course, the taxi guys smelled money and immediately tried to stick my luggage in the trunk of the cab. i stopped the cab driver and asked how much to the metro station. when he told me 40 dollars i shook my head, walked off, and started pulling a business card out of my pocket. he came running back over and told me someone wanted to share a cab and it would be half price. the girl sharing the cab with me was an english teacher in puerto plata. she helped me translate my conversation with the cab driver. however she didn't bother to fill me in on her part of the conversation. i was trying to make a 4:00pm metro bus. she had to cancel a hotel reservation she had made in santo domingo, but i was not aware of this until i spent 20 minutes waiting in the cab in zona colonial and missed my bus. since the caribe tours bus left more often, i opted to go to caribe tours instead. i ended up paying $25us with tip for the cab. he offered to drive me all the way to puerto plata for $75 us, but i declined.
at the caribe tours station, i ran into some canadian hippie kids who were headed to haiti for some sort of charity work. they were helpful in making sure i got on the right bus. at this stage i was still having trouble adjusting to spanish being spoken at the speed of a native speaker. the bus trip was actually kind of interesting. there were some delays in the process. the trip took about six hours. in santiago a group of girls got on and sat in my part of the bus. one of them who was sitting across the aisle from me, kept messing with her phone (which was nicer than mine actually). about 30 minutes into the ride, she taps me on the shoulder and starts showing me pictures on her phone. they ranged from slightly risque to full nudes. she then told me that they were pictures of her sister and pointed to the seat behind me. i probably could have done something really fun with this opportunity, but i already had a reservation at bbs. so i just smiled at both of them.
i paid $20us for a ride from caribe tours station to bbs. i arrived late, around 9:30pm. by 10:00 i was getting my last shot at something to eat from the kitchen. i had the sancocho, which was underwhelming, probably because it was the end of the day. i had no other food there that was lacking in quality. one thing that seemed stricter than last time i was there was shut down time. everyone was ready to be done with the day. while i was eating, the mamasan (not cristal, she was cool) came and told me i had to choose a girl immediately. i told her i would be happy to do so as soon as i finished eating (my food had just arrived). about 5 minutes later she came back to remind me that i needed to choose a girl. thinking i was going to bed alone if i didn't, i got up and scanned the room. i ended up choosing cade (i think that's right). service was not bad, but she was obviously in a hurry. she actually woke me up at 6am fully dressed and wanting to leave.
the next morning, i woke up early and headed to the beach. i spent a while walking around, and then had breakfast at ton why ramonas. i always enjoy the breakfast there, and it was nice to have my first blast of dominican coffee. i started talking to people about various different places to check out in costambar and cofressi. i ended up exploring all day. after an unremarkable st and a nap, things were a bit more lively downstairs at the bar. i went down to check it out. after such a waste of a tln the day before, i was only up for st this night. i ended up taking jade. the service was memorable. excellent bbbj, and i thought she was going to break me in half with her enthusiasm. i felt like this was an excellent choice overall. by the time this was over, i went back downstairs to an empty bar with employees sweeping the floor (11:00pm). i tried to go out into costambar to see if any place was still open, but i seemed to be upsetting the local canines. so i headed back in for a night cap and some much needed rest.
the next day i was ready to go. only 1/3 sessions were great. that's not to say anything about bbs though. my last trip there i extended my stay for the entire trip. with those girls, as with any, ymmv. the facilities were nice, and i have no complaints about bbs. i just think i had less than perfect luck with my choice in girls this time. i was able to share an outside taxi with a couple of other guests out of costambar for a very reasonable price. one of the guys was headed to sosua and fod was on the way. i would publish what i paid, but it would create an inaccurate picture of what it costs. on to fod.
fod was one of the major high points of the trip. the atmosphere was relievingly different. the owners and bartenders were very hospitable. i will quote a fellow monger who said it better than i could,"its like being at a friend's perverted back yard party." it is a little tranquil and tame during the day, but the girls were always attentive and pleasant, but not at all bothersome or pushy. from what i could tell there was no mamasan, and the girls seemed to get along great and do their own thing.
my first day i was approached quickly by a girl who wouldn't have been my first choice, but she seemed to like me. i just rolled with it. it turned out really well mostly. she went my mikala. she was really bright, and her attitude was great. i wasn't sure how much i would appreciate her in the sack, so i went for a st. it was better than any session i had yet on this trip. after returning to the bar and socializing for a bit, i decided i didn't want the night to stop when the bar shut down. i grabbed mikala as well as another gorgeous chica by the name of alicia with an 8 face and a 10 ass, and headed off to pure disco in / near playa dorada. the crowd was an interesting mix of tourists, dominicanas, and sankys. the music wasn't bad at all either, a nice mix of bachata, hip hop, house, and reggaeton. the drinks were expensive for dr though. all in all the experience was worth it. i discovered alicia is a phenomenal dancer, and mikala less so. this was however no reflection of how they performed in the ensuing threesome. mikala was incredibly responsive to daty and cfs, whereas alicia didn't seem to be nearly as into the daty. the cfs with alicia was great though. alicia also insisted on cbj, which i found unappealing. i told myself i wasn't going to do a threesome on this trip, but when i saw alicia walk in, i changed my mind pretty quickly.
the next morning i woke up kind of early. i jumped in the shower, and alicia had to go home for a few hours. before she left, we had another mind bending threesome. alicia's ass was mesmerizing. it was big in depth (not width) but surreal in firmness. she knew just how to work it. mikala went to nap in her onsite quarters, and i went for breakfast. i was one of the first guests awake, but there was already coffee out. i sat down for some coffee and ordered breakfast. the food at fod was really good in my opinion. i had a conversation or two there where other guests disagreed on that point, but everything i ordered was not only good, but the presentation was superb. at first i wasn't sure i was going to stay a second night at fod, but the attitude of the girls was so great that i couldn't resist.
i spent the rest of the day checking out hotels in sosua in an attempt to save a little money on making a cash offer for the weekend. as it turned out, sosua was full enough that this was not the ideal strategy. maybe i will try it in the off season some time. i checked out casa valeria, casa cayena, hotel orchidee, rocky's various rentals, and ended up settling on casa cayena at regular price. i explored the beach for a little while and met up with some new friends i made at bbs. i returned to fod about dark.
this turned out to be one of the best nights of the trip. mikala was waiting with bells when i got back. we had a quick short time, and i told her i wanted to turn it into tln. this made her very happy. we had a few new people in fod by this point but it was still pretty quiet. i bought a few girls drinks, and things started to liven up. i had purchased some inexpensive sex toys to give to girls. we brought some of these out to the bar, and some entertaining antics ensued. nothing fully pornographic, but it was a lot of fun no less. this experience is what really sold me on fod. the atmosphere was so much more relaxed, and the girls seemed to be having fun while working rather than just working.
the night with mikala was totally gfe. i really felt well taken care of. the staff was willing to work with me on checking out a little later than normal the next day. i really just wanted to hang out there a little longer. the murals may be a little cheesy, but who cares. not me. i actually think they contribute to the beautiful absurdity that is fod.
i even liked it enough that i came back by for a few hours on one of my sosua days just to hang out. this was a funny experience in itself. i was immediately met by mikala with a smile when i came in. i talked with her for a while, and told her i was tired and didn't feel like a st right then. when she went to shower and change, she asked if i wanted to take her out with me that night. i told her maybe, but i might want to do something else. while she was gone, i started hitting it off well with an ex bbs girl that was really hot. i went to talk to some friends. later when i came back to ask the former bbs girl if she wanted to come out dancing that night, she took me aside and politely told me,"i can't. you are married here." this resulted in a brief but playful argument with mikala. this might annoy me in any other place or situation, but it added to the charm of the place for me. the zany sexually charged insanity was present throughout. i plan to start my next trip there. i don't think i would want to stay in a place that starts to shut down at 11 or 12 for an entire trip, but i will definitely continue to come back.
other notes: from fod you can catch a public taxi for a day trip to sosua for 60 pesos ($1. 48us) or a gua gua (public bus) for 10 pesos ($.25). just go up to the highway and flag one down. public taxis have red signs on top of the car. gua guas are easy to spot. they are bus vans. keep in mind they may pick up 7 people not including babies in a taxi and 14 or so in a gua gua depending on its size. you may pay slightly more for night transit. i wouldn't put my luggage in one of these if i couldn't hold it in my lap unless i knew the driver, but groceries or other purchases (really anything i could hold) i would be fine with. that of course is only my intuition based on lack of experience. it might be ok to throw luggage in the trunk. when i carried all my luggage i took a private taxi, the one fod recommended. the $25 or so for the sake of security was worth it to me.
taking a moto back and forth from sosua is doable, but i have to say it made me a little uncomfortable. if you rent a moto please be careful and stay out of the fast lane. the road isn't too horrible, but there are a significant number of potholes.
fod has an onsite atm, but i prefer a real bank atm. i'm sure theirs is fine, but its just a quirk of mine. i went to the atm in playa dorada. i wouldn't recommend it. it is a much longer walk than i anticipated. there is a closer one just inside puerto plata at the roundabout in the highway i hear.
thanks to the staff at both bbs and fod for contributing to a great vacation. both places have their pros and cons. i think they are both excellent places to stay, and perfect places to start a longer trip.
Thanks a lot for your 2 well-written, informative reports. Couple of thoughts if I may:

I had the sweetest girl in the world approach me the only time I took it (I always have a car rental normally). On the shy side, she had checked me out discreetly since leaving Pto Pta. We had to exit briefly the bus at Santiago and she positioned herself right next to me as we were waiting by the bus. Her face illuminated with the most endearing smile as I started talking to her.

If that team cannot pull it through, then it will be because there is not enough demand in Puerto Plata for another monger hotel. Even without customers, they manage to create some party mood. Some girls live together in the back room, FKK style, so they really work as a team. They have been well instructed, I. E they resisted aggregating all around me in spite of me being the only available wallet one night.
The owners seem very hands-on, and I saw them have fun with the girls frequently. Probably a factor in the girl's and staff's cheerfulness, in spite of the lack of customers. Service was flawless, facilities are great.
I stayed for their "wet T-shirt" event one Saturday afternoon. The event never got started, though, as only a couple of guys showed up. Yet, I thoroughly enjoyed watching the girls splashing in the pool, play billard and chat around. Had the worst hamburger ever though.

That was an abbreviated version of the incident actually. I actually offered another round of beer, and tried to smooth it over with the girl amicably.

Hello,
I stayed at BB's about over one year ago. Was not recent I know but want to help where I can.
BB arranged a taxi for me from POP airport (30$ I think). The pickup was on time, no issues. I got to the resort, checked in. The guy at the front desk (tall white gentleman) was helpful but not the most patient especially if you are asking questions. Checked into the room, was nice, AC reliable, hot water, clean, safe. I think was $55 / night.
Blackbeards is in Costamabar, a kind-of sectioned off gated community (Very Safe). I rented a scooter from a guy named Carlos, very reliable and honest as I was worried about being scammed. No problem here. This was a small thrill for me as I have never been on a scooter before. It was great to ride around Costambar, to Jenny's supermarket (wayy better than walking or taking a motoconcho) , to the Costambar beach (not the cleanest but you can grab a lounge chair in the shade with a presidente in one hand, pretty Gringa chica on your lap and chill out).
Chicas.
At that time, most were 7's, two 8's. I am into the lighter skin chicas and I met this one girl, a 9, who I swear was from Columbia (but ofcourse, that does not make sense). She was even a bit insulted when I asked her that, dom girls have their pride! The girls were friendly, sweet, a little aggressive on the dance floor in BB's which I like. The swimsuit contest was fun as well as the strip show competition.
Other than the normal ST / LT, one highlight was taking two girls into the BB large jucuzzi at night. Highly recommended fun!
Food.
Excellent, the breakfast, burger and pasta all great. There is also a little Italian restaurant with decent pizza around the corner from BB's.
I liked that there was Beer in the room fridge, drink when you want what you want.
I liked BB's but other than the Chicas, not much else to do. Some prefer it this way, but I like a variety. I will be back in DR next week and this time I will be staying in Cabarete for more variation on stuff to do, and hunting at Sosuas at night.
Has anyone else noticed that the prices at Oxygen have gone way up, and does anyone have some inside info as to why?
I went to Oxygen once about 3 years ago. The prevailing best rate was about $600-650 a night. Pricey yes, but not so steep that I wasn't willing to try it once just to see what it was like. I found the compound nice and the food decent. The companion girls were mostly "cafe au lait" or "mocha" complexion Dominicans. And on the slender side (for Dominicans). Attractive yes, but not quite matching the extravagant prices. Overall, I had a pleasant time, but didn't think that I would return.
That was early in my experience. Since then, I have travelled more, and have come to appreciate what Oxygen delivers. The environment is relaxing and safe, and the very definition of low aggravation. Nobody hangs on you, grabs you, and tries to get you to buy them a drink. It's like being at someones house for pool party. I could do some work on my laptop for a few hours, and it was no big deal. I was never made to feel that I was "neglecting" them or being rude.
I was recently thinking of going back, but now the best price is over $800 a night. Has anything happened to warrant the price increase? Have there been upgrades to the facility? Changes in services?
Sorry for posting this here, but there doesn't seem to be much traffic on the Oxygen thread, and I didn't think that I would get an answer. That plus, I was hoping to get up to date perspectives regarding its comparison to other places like BB and FOD, to which I have never been.
650 IS WHAT I spend in 6 days and I am very happy with the women I bang.

But there has been a lot of inflation in the DR over the past three years. Many things have suffered sharp price rises in pesos. Throw in a bit of upgrading of the premises as well, and that could easily account for those price rises. Another factor could be that their turnover has declined in line with many tourist resorts on the North Coast and they have jacked up prices to maintain their margins (the usual strategy in this country).

I didn't realize that marked inflation had taken place.
Actually, if you break it down, the $650 per day was definitely expensive, but not out of this world unreasonable. The small hotel is nice, kind of staying at a rich guys house / mansion. Two swimming pools, a jacuzzi, outdoor bar, and a hookah hut. The room itself is 3 1/2 stars, and I mean that to be a compliment. To me, the Oriental in Bangkok is 5 star hotel. The service level was also personalized and very good. I would say that $150 a night would be a reasonable rate for that room. It's also all-inclusive. Food and booze all you want. The food is burgers, pizza, spaghetti, etc, not steak and lobster. They even give you tipping coupons. I would say food, plus transport, could probably be worth about $100 / day.
On the basic plan, that leaves $400 for what amounts to two companions. And there is the rub. For someone who has never been there, I can understand how that can be eye-popping. The owner once told me that going there the first time is a leap of faith, and I think that sums it up pretty well. It's pricey, but the girls are vetted, and the experience is excellent. Just consider the difference as an effective $200 "luxury fee," which if you are only staying for 2 nights, probably isn't that bad. I have not been anywhere else in the DR, but other reports by people who have been everywhere say that Oxygen girls are a level above other girls in the DR. And when I was there, all the other people there were returnees, who did not give me the impression that they were particularly wealthy. They considered it a once in a while splurge.
$800 a day, though, is pretty crazy. I think that the more you raise the price, the more you raise expectations, which to tell you the truth, were barely being met beforehand. $800 is definitely above the sweet spot for what they are offering.
[QUOTE=Manny51;1382477]. when I was there, all the other people there were returnees, who did not give me the impression that they were particularly wealthy. They considered it a once in a while splurge.[/QUOTE]Thanks for your good-tempered reply which is probably more than I deserved. As to "wealthy", these things are relative. For most mongers visiting the North Coast, being there at all, on a budget of US$100 to $200 a day (which I would guess covers 95% of the visitors to Sosua) is a "once in a while splurge". They would rather visit three times a year on the cheap than live the high-life at Oxygen once a year.
The other issue is that many mongers actually prefer to get involved in the local scene, despite its tackiness. The regime at Oxygen would be too "artificial" for many of us. (In fact, once at Blackbeards was enough for me, much as I enjoyed it). But different strokes, etc, and it is good there are so many different options in the DR.
The fact that the other guests were all returnees speaks well for Oxygen. It is obviously not a rip-off like so many of the "Sex-included AIs" which advertise and occasionally try to spam on the boards.

The fact that the other guests were all returnees speaks well for Oxygen. It is obviously not a rip-off like so many of the "Sex-included AIs" which advertise and occasionally try to spam on the boards.[/QUOTE]Can you really get by with $150 a day for hotel, food, and "entertainment?"
Back then, when I was researching my first trip to the DR, I seemed to be reading so many negative things on the forum about some places in the DR."Sosewer," girls with very poor hygiene, and terrible attitude. At the same, there were some articles about these boutique places, like Oxygen. There was also one other place which was even more expensive and famous, it had an article about it in Playboy. I can't remember the name at this moment. I think it had something to do with pirates (not talking about BB). Oxygen seemed like an upper midrange option, so I tried it out.
Although I am not that experienced a traveller, I have come to realize that, as long as something is grossly within my means, I never complain about the price if I have a good experience. It's only when the experience is mediocre that I start thinking critically about whether it represents "value" or not. In fact, my instinct tells me that, over the last several years, good experiences in the world are getting harder and harder to find. More women are taking on bad attitudes. Maybe the internet makes the world a smaller place. Maybe those women in the younger generation are more spoiled or self-loathing. I can't quite put my finger on the cause, but I know that the trend is real. Its the reason why I was considering going back to Oxygen.
[QUOTE=Manny51; 1382477]Thanks for the response. I didn't realize that marked inflation had taken place.
Actually, if you break it down, the $650 per day was definitely expensive, but not out of this world unreasonable. The small hotel is nice, kind of staying at a rich guys house / mansion. Two swimming pools, a jacuzzi, outdoor bar, and a hookah hut. The room itself is 3 1/2 stars, and I mean that to be a compliment. To me, the Oriental in Bangkok is 5 star hotel. The service level was also personalized and very good. I would say that $150 a night would be a reasonable rate for that room. It's also all-inclusive. Food and booze all you want. The food is burgers, pizza, spaghetti, etc, not steak and lobster. They even give you tipping coupons. I would say food, plus transport, could probably be worth about $100 / day.
On the basic plan, that leaves $400 for what amounts to two companions. And there is the rub. For someone who has never been there, I can understand how that can be eye-popping. The owner once told me that going there the first time is a leap of faith, and I think that sums it up pretty well. It's pricey, but the girls are vetted, and the experience is excellent. Just consider the difference as an effective $200 "luxury fee," which if you are only staying for 2 nights, probably isn't that bad. I have not been anywhere else in the DR, but other reports by people who have been everywhere say that Oxygen girls are a level above other girls in the DR. And when I was there, all the other people there were returnees, who did not give me the impression that they were particularly wealthy. They considered it a once in a while splurge.
$800 a day, though, is pretty crazy. I think that the more you raise the price, the more you raise expectations, which to tell you the truth, were barely being met beforehand. $800 is definitely above the sweet spot for what they are offering.[/QUOTE]Listen to the regular posters here, this price is a rip off in the DR. Its your money but the only reason this makes since is if somebody wants privacy because they are well known or afraid of being seen. How much do you think these guys are paying the girls? Let me tell you no where near 400 dollars. For that kinda of money there some many better places to go in the world.

[QUOTE=Manny51; 1382533]Can you really get by with $150 a day for hotel, food, and "entertainment?"[/QUOTE]Two or three years back there was a survey on another board that has ten times as many posts about North Coast mongering as this one, so I think the results were from a fairly representative sample. The average amount mongers spent was about US$150 per day (not including travel expenses). Call that US$200 these days. Some guys spent only US$100 a day. I suspect they didn't drink much and maybe only enjoyed one chica a day, or had regulars who kept their sexual expenditure down, or had free lodging with friends. I cannot remember all the background now.
You can still have a great holiday in Sosua for US$200 per day (excluding travel costs).
Hotel: 2400.
One ST per day: 1500
One TLN per day: 2000.
Breakfast: 200.
Dinner: 400.
Refreshments: 300.
Alcoholic Drinks: 500.
Transport: 200.
Other miscellaneous: 500.
That's tight and it would be nice to have another US$50 to play with for contingencies, but then some guys can get by with US$150.
Of course you will pay more if:
- You are racially selective (fair-skinned women come at a premium)
- You are an alcoholic.
- You know nil Spanish.
- You need more than 2 chicas per 24 hours.
No-one need be put off by stories of trouble. If you don't drink too much and avoid hardcore working girls and their associates it is a very safe place. Some guys enjoy the drama though, so they hang with tigueres, police, pushers, and other scum. Even then, there are surprisingly few incidents.

Believe me, I can be as frugal as they come.
But I think you said it well in that sometimes I would be willing to visit the DR once a year on a higher budget than 3X a year on a lower budget.
As for the Senator, that was just a headline that caught my attention. I always imagined bigwigs like that using high end call girls from a hollywood madam. I didn't think that they flew to POP like the rest of us! And if they did, I just thought that they would do it smarter.
Sorry to chime in as I noted the reference to the Oriental in Bangkok. I have never stayed there. The location was not good given the traffic of Bangkok which I hope has improved since with the subway system. I stayed at the Shangri-la and the Grand Hyatt many times. I have also stayed at the Oriental in Singapore (I think they are not the same group) and Four Seasons, Ritz-Carlton and the Inter-Continental in Singapore, Hong Kong and Jakarta. I just thought comparing the service levels of Asia to something in the DR (or even here in the US) is well-nigh impossible but there is a bigger picture:
At least in Bangkok, I rarely brought women to the hotel given the super-abundance of other on location options. Also, given the time constraints of business travel, it was always a pro that we spoke of. The D. R to me (and perhaps there are other such places in other continents) , is an interesting opportunity to savor the company of normal people which to me makes it unique. Sure, even these are people who will always appreciate the money you offer discreetly but this makes it somewhat different for me compared to say, a high-end place as no matter how pretty, or how sophisticated the women are, perhaps even English speaking, they are still pro and jaded.
There is another element for me. In a country where people make less than 10000 pesos after a month's work, bringing a normal person to a fancy locale, to me has felt like an affront. I remember on one occasion, I stayed in a regular hotel, paying something like 1500 pesos with hot shower and clean sheets and a good sized room. Earlier, I had met a waitress (and nothing fancy about her except that she caught my fancy) during a modest Dominican lunch who came to see me in late afternoon and she asked me by way of conversation as to how much I was paying for the room. It was clear she does not frequent hotels even modest as it was, too often. Stupidly I told her and after an awkward silence, she asked me if the amount was for a week.
As Charles says, different things appeal to different people. This was just my two cents. Thanks.

My friend and I are flying a 4 seat plane to several islands in the Bahamas. I am considering a few days in the Puerto Plata & Sousa as well as part of the island hopping experience in April. All my mongering experience outside the USA has been in South East Asia. Mainly the Philippines.
From all I read here, BlackBeards seems like the best choice for me since I speak no spanish. However, I like to stay in a place with a decent king size bed & amenities and I saw on TripAdvisor that there are several 2 bedroom rental houses near Costumbar (Lifestyle Tropical Beach Resort and Spa) that look like great accomodations for my buddy and I.
If we stay at a private residence outside of Blackbeards, where do we monger?
For many years I was a musician in bands playing on weeksends so I like to party on a vacation like this. Is nose candy available?
Thanks for all the useful advice.
Hi,
I will be landing at POP on 09 Feb noon for 2 or 3 nights, any tips.
How is Fantasy Stars Club, any reviews please advise.

The accomodations, food, and beach are right there at BB's, and so is the pussy. The choices of chicas will blow you away. If you want to party, go to Sosua. Stay at New Garden or any of the many hotels in the area. Terra Linda is top notch. Most of these hotels have oversized beds. Besides, not speaking Spanish, you'd do better with my suggestions. Need a guide? Ha, I've lived here for 4 years. Rent a new car for $30 or $40 a day, and take it all in.

But even driving on your own its still about a 6-8 hour drive, personally I would break it up into a 2 day drive. Drive the first day to Boca Chica, stop and enjoy the entertainment and local talent get a good nights rest and then finish the remainder the next morning.
From PP you can go one of two ways either down thru Santiago then thru SDQ and into Boca Chica or take the north coast route thru Sosua then onto and thru Nagua and then down to Boca Chica. From there its a straight shot, mostly, over to LaRamana and then jump on the new highway that will get you on over to Punta Cana. PP to BC either way is about 3 hours but the north coast is less traffic, and the BC to PC is a little over 2 hours now with the new highway. Make sure you have pesos for the toll roads. And buy a map, just in case.

Just a note of warning. Blackbeards was full last night and some of the guests who were attending a party a bb stayed in an overflow hotel just around the corner. Initially the mamasan agreed that there would be no bar fine for taking a Chica to the overflow hotel. The owner overruled that and apparently got pretty nasty about it. So much for the customer service at bb. My opinion is that if you are running a business you need to stand behind commitments made by your employees. Just my two cents

On the other hand, if these guys had already proved troublesome he might have been glad to see the back of them. If Blackbeards was full, as you state, he might have already had his hands full and also needed all his chicas for his own guests.

The policy out a salida has been in effect for a few years now. I remember a time before there was a salida policy when a group staying off site took many many girls for a private party. When the girls were gone there was not much action for any of us that were staying at BB's. It pretty much sucked the life out of the place.
Perhaps John would have made an exception if it was closer to closing and all of the guys staying at BB's had there evening dates? I would be interested to know if any of the guys staying off site were loyal BB's customers that just could not get a reservation. I would also like to now if the "overflow" hotel was set up by BB's because they were full? I have found John and Tim to be very accommodating for loyal customers.
The mamasan would not have the authority to waive the salida. That would be a John or Tim call. I am sure there was a conversation between John and the Mamasan to remove any doubt as to the chain of command when it comes to those types of decisions in the future. Say what you will about John he runs a tight ship and there is only ONE Captain!
They were overflo guest and should not penalized. It is poor customer service. John was wrongif I was one of the overflo guest I would be pissed.

I have seen this many times over the years and never seen anyone pay an exit fee, so what changed?

Here is what happened. I own a website and we had a huge party and we booked three hotels up and completly sold them all out. One at FOD one at BB and one around the corner from bb. So let me explain.
Here was my train of thought. I always thought that the mamasan was in charge of the chicas and the management was in charge of the hotel so I decided to send cristal a email explaining how I have a few guys that wanted to stay at bb but since it was already booked up if they stayed at the overflow hotel if they would be charged a exit fee and I was told that they would NOT be charged since it was part of the group and they could not get a room at the bb so it would be no charge. Then when the time arrived for these members to take a girl out for a short time or a tln I don't remember which one it was but they were told by rosa there is a exit fee. Now I was not around when all this happneed and when I arrived I was told what happened and figured that cristal never spoke to rosa and there was a communication break down and I would straigten it out in the am (now mind you members from my site MOD members actually paid the fee for the member) so the next morning I talked to cristal and she insisted that there is no charge and she would talk to martha and fix all of this and she did and the miscommunication was she thought it was booked directly through BB not through my group and that is where to communication break down came from and I spoke to John the owner today and he explained how it happened as well and I am sure he will post something. But to be honest it was a little miscommunication between myself. The mamasan and management. Once john got involved he exaplained it to me and it made perfect sense.
As far as the members that got the short end of the stick I will be reaching out to them and working something out with them and explaining more about this to them as well. I hope this cleared up somethings about all this but John the owner apologized to me a bunch of times for the miscommunication and all should be fine now.
[quote=travelguycan; 1385612]exactly right, bb is a freshman training camp perfect for newbies until. you graduate to bootcamp sosua, senior year.
for newbies not just from a perspective of chica but exploring the surrounding costambar itself, and getting comfortable getting out of the hotel.
bb had its value in that i learned i prefer to hunt and bb is not for that, for that reason i will not return[/quote]although i agree that bb would be easier for a first time traveler that sosua or other areas in the dr, i do not feel you can compare bb and sosua to freshman vs senior year. it's not like it is difficult getting laid in sosua and as far as quality i feel the girls at bb are every bit as good as what can be had elsewhere in the dr. bb and sosua are different but i don't think "hunting" in sosusa makes you any more of a monger than feeding from the trough at bb.
for me, i want a hassle free vacation that includes my favorite activity (s). i agree the activities at bb are basically low key and the place closes down at 11:30 or midnight but that suits me fine since i am in bed early even when staying in sosua. costambar offers a safe environment for a long morning walk, the food and rooms are top notch at bb and you don't have to worry about **** girls or getting ripped off. to me this is the ideal vacation and i prefer low key to loud music, questionable quarters and the drama i read about on the sosua thread. i like to drive to sosua, visit the beach, eat at baileys and sample the girls at passions but i feel at home when i return to bb.
i assume there are as many ideas of what the perfect vacation might be as there are mongers but for me the bb experience is about as good as it gets. this does not make me inexperienced or less of a man but a person who has found a place that makes ten hours of air travel worth the trip.
i for one will always stop for at least a couple days at bb when in the dr.

[QUOTE=Orgasmico;1386358]How much was this salida? Just curious since so much is being written about this.[/QUOTE]800 pesos or 20 dollars which is the same at current exchange rate, at least it was that the last time I was there.
This is probably going to start flame wars but what the heck. Here is my perspective on BB vs FOD. I've stayed at BB a couple of times in the past and ended up in FOD because BB was full. I was with the catamaran group so couldn't change dates. Anyway, here are my thoughts
1. Girls. The girls at BB are "working girls trying to party" and the girls at FOD are "party girls trying to be working girls". Don't get me wrong. I like working girls. Being ancient like I am, it takes a good working girl to give me a good time. Hell, sometimes they need to get the flashlight out to look for the dick between the folds of belly fat. You'll get a more consistent BJ at BBs. BUt you'll get a whole lot more enthusiasm at FOD. You might have to give them a pointer or two but they'll remember the next time. In general, the girls at FOD are about as good looking as the ones at BB, BUT they are not quite as well "made up". Depends on what you are into. Younger more natural looking party girls at FOD who will work, or good looking professionals at BB.
2. The food at FODis barely passable. It won't get you sick and the hamburger is not as bad as some of the reports. BB's food is a whole lot better. At FOD, the saving grace is that there are a bunch of awesome restaurants within a 5 minute taxi ride. Pedro, one of the owners set us up with a seafood place yesterday and is was one of the best meals I've had in DR. Costambar has a few choices, but in general if you want to eat well, FOD's location is a whole lot better.
3. Organization. Well, BB runs a tight ship. FOD misses some of the details. For example if you mind going to bar when occasionally you run out of toilet paper then you should stay at BB. I don't mind wiping my ass with a towel, so FOD works for me.
All in all I've had a better time at FOD this time than my previous trips to BB. Here is what I mean.
Last Thursday was a catamaran trip. I was supposed to bring a girl but I don't speak Spanish so I accidentally asked two. Oh we'll, it made for a good trip and a great threesome. First time I've fucked in a jacuzzi. Now I'm addicted to it.
Friday was the private party at BB. It was a bust as far as I was concerned. Maybe it got better after I left early. Picked up a girl at FOD, stopped by her house to see her kid, had some street food and called it a night.
Saturday was the private party at FOD's mansion. Topples, bottomless, lesbian shows, and other assorted debauchery. Sunday I had a limp dick and other old man's woes.
Monday started slow with a UNO game with girls. Before we knew it, there were 5 naked girls in my room with3 other guys. I don't remember much except girls taking turns at me. At one time there were three trying to get me up. I just don't deserve that much fun. Hard to imagine if somethinglikethat would happen at BB's.
Tuesday was on the Malecon at Big Lees fish and chips place. Great fish, live music, wind in your hair. That last one is a lie, I don't have hair anymore.
Wednesday we had the greatest karaoke party at FOD. Some of these girls can really sing. 25 girls and 3 to 4 gringos, cant beat the ratio. Had a whale of a time. We're going to try to beat this with a shrimp and fish fry party on Saturday so if anyone's around, drop in. Free shrimp until it runs out, and all the girls you can eat.
You can see why, I think I'll probably end up FOD next time even if BB is not full.

Although FOD seems like it has potential, the biggest concern that I've had is going there and being the only guy there, or maybe one of just a few guys. If there isn't enough traffic, all the women lock on you, making for a very awkward situation. I've read many reports saying that although there is some potential, there just not enough people, men and women, coming through there. This is the big concern. I can always eat somewhere else.

I have never been pressured by the girls. Management has them well trained. FOD food looks good, like I said, I'm a transplant but don't stop there to eat.

Thoroughly enjoyed the write up and frankly got tempted to share the 'assorted debauchery". Even though I never thought of stepping into either. Well, I may have a second thought coming. Look forward to more such comedic relief. Backed up by solid data.
[QUOTE=Orgasmico;1386586]. probably the best plug for FOD we've had in a while.[/QUOTE]Not sure if the revelation that he wipes his ass on their towels will encourage new clients though. He's right about their slackness in maintaining the toilets, though, and that has been a problem ever since the new managers came in. Barba Negra is much more professional on those sorts of easily remedied customer service issues.
Some good observations, and he is spot on about the chicas, but he omitted some of FoD's assets.
- Puerto Plata is a much better town than Sosua for those who are mainly interested in picking up non-pros and semi-pros, and FoD is a more convenient place to take them than, say, Blackbeards. (Would be even better if they got rid of the tasteless murals though. When I used to take non-pros and semi-pros there years back I always reassured them it was a motel, not a cabana. The murals undermine that argument).
- FoD is opposite a golf course (and used to attract a lot of golfers in Dominican Billy's days).
- The beach (actually choice of three beaches) is better for bathers than Costambar (though not a short walk like it is from Blackbeards).
- It's a lot easier and cheaper to get to and from Sosua than it is from Blackbeards.

i for one will always stop for at least a couple days at bb when in the dr.[/quote]calling costambar 'safe' and bb girls 'hassle free' proves my point exactly. at bb, there is no risk or negoatiation. the price.
is fixed, and you can chose a girl from standing in your room's doorway. the girl is somewhat afraid to lose
the privilege of working there so she is not going to cause drama on you.
in sosua, while not exactly dangerous, there are certain side streets you would not want to walk down at night.
you will likely be harrassed. you also run the risk of the girl causing drama, and who do you have to turn to? noone.
but yourself.
for me, bb has a limited selection. if i don't like the lineup, too bad, got to wait until the next days shift
of girls. if i take a girl at midnight, and she doesn't give me what i want, too bad, stuck with it.
in sosua, i can hunt and get exactly what i want whenever i want it. open season and at less than the price at bb.
ofcourse any idiot with 100 us $ can get laid easily in sosua; the challenge is to get a girl for much less than.
that at a higher level of service and consistently; it's possible, but you need some game. speak spanish, know how.
to negotiate etc.
doesn't matter at bb's. ask the lion at the zoo 'why unhappy' when meal is handed to him.
it's not natural. maybe when i am older.
[QUOTE=Bliadun; 1386507]How much you've ended up paying to girls taking turns at you?
Did you discuss the price before orgy started?[/QUOTE]The girls started chanting the room number with jacuzzi so we told them we would pay them 1500 each. I'm sure we could have negotiated and paid them more, but then I would get flamed for spoiling the market.
Actually now that you mention it, we never discussed anything else. It sort of happened. Contrary to all the advice, I have never actually negotiated for services or price. At BB and FOD I just give them 1600 or 3000 up front and hope it works out. If it doesn't I just never take them again. At places like Sosua, I ignore their asking price and tell them the going rate. Never had a problem. The service provider will accept less if they are experiencing adverse circumstances. Do you really want to take advantage of that? I bargain only when it matters, but to each his or her own
By the way this was NOT an orgy. By definition, an orgy is when a girl is spit roasted. This was simply a game of musical chairs
Like everyone has said, BB runs a professional ship. You may not be able to get toilet paper when you need it atFOD, but there are some other advantages. One of the owners stays in a room at FOD and last night or the night before, some customer had an issue with a girl, and lo and behold he woke up another girl in the middle of the night. All is well that ends well I say. There are some advantages to having a selection staying in a dorm on campus!
Some astute observers might have noticed that I am posting in the middle of the night, a time traditionally reserved for normal nocturnal activities like demolishing temporary erections (although at my age you have to get the demolition crew working on it immediately before it collapses on its own) - the reason is that I had fish n chips at Big Lees and i saw no particular reason Not to overdo it, so I had a second order. A word of warning. Eating two orders at Big Lees is a great idea at 7 in the evening, but be prepared to suffer like a bloated pig
And no, I'm not paid by FOD, big lee,BB
What resort is "FOD"?
I would like to check them out (FOD). I was already at Black Beards, and I didn't get along there.

Any advice on FOD's packages? I rather "pay and go" like I did at BB. Has anybody just paid the room rates, and Ala Carte the rest?
Money wise is it about the same BB via FOD when just doing the room rates, without the packages?

You meant that each guy paid each girl 1500?

[QUOTE=GentleLapper;1387057]I rather "pay and go" like I did at BB. Has anybody just paid the room rates, and a la carte the rest?[/QUOTE]That's what most people do. Returning guests, who already know they like the place, may book a longer stay in advance to negotiate a discount, but first-timers are ill-advised to do that in case they aren't happy there.
We would be interested to know why you didn't like Blackbeards. It could have a bearing on whether you will like Field of Dreams. For example, if you said it was too far to walk to the beach at Blackbeards then you won't like Field of Dreams. (OK, that was a silly example but I don't want to speculate on other and more likely reasons).
[QUOTE=GentleLapper;1387057]Moneywise is it about the same, BB versus FOD, when just doing the room rates, without the packages?[/QUOTE]I would say so. FOD has one or two premium rate rooms as well. Not sure if Blackbeards does? The standard rooms are about the same. Because FoD is quieter, guests can probably negotiate a good discount for longer stays in the off season, but that is not now.
Why don't you check prices on their respective websites.

I was too drunk to participate in any revelry. Three women sucking on your dick is hardly excessive. Besides, they couldn't do it at once because the small dimensions associated with my genitals did not allow for three mouths. Upon further analysis I must conclude that my balls and nipples were also involved.
FOD is pay as you go. They have an all inclusive but I can't find any reason at all to do that.

True orgies have always kind of weirded me out. I am dreading the thought of "crossing swords."
I don't usually post any pictures, but I might make an exception. A friend I met and I chipped in a hundred bucks each to get shrimp, and other stuff. The cook fixed it up and we had a grand old time at FOD. The girls and anyone that walked in had free shrimp. That wasn't the end either. FOD decided to get a karaoke machine and man, this was one party toned all. It's still going on as I write this. Just had a chica dance in my face, pulled her panties aside before she could object. Too bad the ratio of gringos is not good for the girls, but hell, I'm past caring. Looking forward to two of them sucking my dick. Awesome. I think BBis just too structured for me. I guess to each his own. For me the wild party which ends in my room is a lot more fun then chasing a chica

Hi Guys.
My first trip to the DR with 3 friends made it more politically correct to book us into an AI in the Playa Dorada complex (Barcelo) rather than Sosoua. I have RTTF but still had a couple of questions.
We do plan on going to Sosoua at least 1 night and maybe Puerto Plata another but, I was hoping for some daily fun and really appreciate a massage with a BBBJ at the end. Any chance of getting this on the beach in Playa Dorada? I realize we are in a tourist area so, please give me an idea of how much and if you can recommend anyone or anyplace in particular.
I am planning on walking over to FOD at least a couple of times during the week. I think members of the board get some special consideration but I am unsure what and how to politely make them aware of the affiliation.
Suggestions appreciated and I will post some of my experiences after the trip. (going in the beginning of March)
Also. How the hell do you say BBBJ in spanish? Love 'them and want to be able to make things clear up front so there are no surprises later.
Thanks for the help.

Jimmy[/QUOTE]I'm sure you can get what you want at Playa Dorada. Never heard of such a thing but this is DR and all problems can be solved with money. Your best bet is to walk over to FOD, and you can do a short time. A couple of guys who were staying at Playa Dorada were doing that while I was at FOD. The guys that came over used their friends room. I'm not sure if FOD does short term rentals but like I said, all problems are solvable. BBBJ is kind of standard, so most girls will do it. If in doubt have one of the English speaking girls explain it to your date

If in doubt have one of the English speaking girls explain it to your date[/QUOTE]No Sir! Buying pussy in Playa Dorado is a no go. The beach in Playa Dorado is mostly full of couples and families.
[QUOTE=James Neutron;1387457]Also. How the hell do you say BBBJ in spanish? Love 'them and want to be able to make things clear up front so there are no surprises later.[/QUOTE]BBBJ is Spanish is "Chupa sin condon", pretty much a standard in DR!
I would take a mid-afternoon ride over to Sosua, since there are a few of you, just take a taxi to play it safe. You could make a deal with a local, like a brother or friend of one of the AI workers to drive you there, hang out and take you safely back to the resort. A regular taxi is going to gouge you, so find a trustworthy local friend of a resort bar-tender to take you.
When you get to Sosua, explore the town a little, have a beer at Rumba Bar, late afternoon, but go to Passions, there are on-site rooms, and you can get an hour of full service there, includes the room for RD2500.
There are 20 + chicas there to choose from, and it is a very controlled environment. Drinks are reasonable, RD100 a beer or Cuba libre.
Here is The Passion's website, to get an idea of the chicas:
There are always 4-5 stunners in the mix.

And yes, BBBJ would be "una chupada sin condon" or "una mamada sin condon"
If staying at Playa Dorada, its hard to beat for convenience and proximity.

You could try the adjacent beaches to the left and right where you just might get lucky. But I don't see the problem with walking to FoD. It is 15 minutes slow walk through the gold course, safe and mostly shaded.
The mamasan and staff speak English there so you can be quite frank with your requirements. BBBJ should be standard, CIM and anal are not and will cost more and need to be specified in advance.
And if you guys are reasonably presentable you could try your luck with non-pros and semi-pros in Puerto Plata in the daytime. Cheap and easy to get to there and to Sosua on public transport but with four of you you could afford a taxi. Or are your three companions celibate? I ask that because I cannot understand why four guys would book into an AI. You could have rented a villa in Sosua.
[QUOTE=James Neutron;1387457][/QUOTE]Hi James.
My last post should have read "golf" course. There are gold-mines in the DR but none at Playa Dorada (despite the name).
Also to clarify, when I wrote that the staff speak English at Field of Dreams I meant the management, of which there are always one or two on duty. Most of the putas speak little or no English, though a few are proficient, usually the older ones who have sucked a million dicks in their day.
I see this is your first post. Don't know if you have PM access? If so, send me a PM and I might be able to help you further.
I live full-time in Puerto Plata.
Good info from Yanqui 68 and Buscemi, by the way. Two posters who know what they are talking about.

But I have no problem believing it is true.
Thanks guys, for all the great advice. A couple of things:
My buddies are definitely not celibate but, Sosoua has garnered a bit of a reputation even among non-mongers and I would prefer some knucklehead back home didn't start yacking about what goes on there at the wrong time / place. Staying in Playa Dorada makes the trip a bit safer since most people are not that familiar with DR geography.
I do realize that having any type of sex on the Playa Dorada beach is a no-no but, thought there might be a massage shack or 2 in the general area that was also a suck shack.
A trip to Sosoua and Passions is definitely on the agenda.
Don't mind the walk to FOD (or what I antcipate the walk to be) and that may be my best bet on a daily basis at least. Sounds like a short term room would get the job done.
RE: Going into PP for an afternoon. We are fairly presentable and one of our party speaks fluent spanish. I have tried Pimsleur and may know enough Spanish now to get myself into trouble. But, I am still a bit confused regarding the availability of these legendary Cabanas and how they are just randomly located around the countryside. So, if we identify a semi or non pro in Puerto Plata- what are the chances they would want to use a Cabana?
One of my travelling mates reminded me of 2 Questions. 1. Where is a good place to exchange US$ for Pesos and 2. Where to get Viagra or Cialis around Playa Dorada?
I have been thinking of visiting the Puerto Plata area in the next few weeks, but plane tickets to POP are ridiculously expensive. Tickets for the northeast to POP seem to be hovering between $800-900. I don't want to, but I may have to end up using frequent flyer miles.
Any frequent PP visitors have good tips on saving money on plane tickets?
Thanks in advance!

The oxymoron comment is hilarious. Sad. But I have no problem believing it's true.
I greatly appreciate all the expert advice and offer for additional help (Charles) I do not have PM privileges right now but, will likely bite the bullet soon and be in touch.
A couple of clarifying comments:
My friends are not celibate but, Sosoua has ganered itself a reputation as a sex tourist destination and I did not want some knucklehead back home backslapping me and laughing at the wrong time / place. So Playa Dorada was the best alternative for our "golf" (among other things) vacation. When presented with a gorgeous and willing Chica, I have no doubt they will do what nature intended as that has proved the case in the past.
We are fairly presentable and might consider heading into PP for an afternoon and look around for semi / non pros. My concern is we have no idea where to go and don't want to insult the local police chief's daughter with a lewd comment. Also, since we are staying at an AI, taking a chica back would be an issue and I thought I read that the semi-non pros get a little put off if asked to go to one of those legendary Cabanas that seem to litter the country side in the DR. One of our party does speak fluent spanish and I have taken some of the Pimsleur courses. Probably know just enough to get into trouble.
A trip to Sosoua Beach and Passions is definitely on the to do list. I appreciate the advice regarding taxis / cars etc.
I am more than willing to make the 10-15 minute walk to FOD for some daytime fun and will do so. I recently talked to a friend who stayed at the Barcelo recently and he told me that on the last day while his wife was packing a good looking chica came up and offered him a massage and BJ. She said $100 but, he declined for obvious reasons. That encounter was the reason for my question regarding suck shacks on or near the Playa Dorada Beach.
Since there is such little info regarding Playa Dorada and the monger scene, I did have 3 more quick questions. 1. Where is a good place to exchange money 2. Buy cigars 3. Buy Viagra / Cialis in the area.
As always, thanks for the assistance.

I usually get Philippines or Thailand for $1200. 00 or so now $1500+ most travel sights which is a few hundred more then I want to pay. $800-$900 for DR is also a few hundred more then I have seen in recent past. Deals are still there for long layover flights but those cost you also cause you might have to swing a hotel stay and extra meals at high priced airport restaurants. I hope it gets better soon I need a mongering trip soon

But I'm getting a little annoyed with people harping on my defense of Oxygen and your insinuation that I am some kind of arrogant rich guy.
I don't mind paying a little more to another party, whatever they are, if they are providing a unique and personalized service. Have you ever even been to Oxygen?
The owner has basically bought a small hotel, and a nice one, and runs it himself from the ground up. Its not just a bar with some seedy stinky rooms in the back. Maid services, the cook, cleaning the pool, free wifi everywhere and satellite TV, running a restaurant, paying to meet whatever govt health / safety regulations there are, etc. He is one guy running a small business. He doesn't have the Hilton corp. backing him up or the advantage of economies of scale. He vetts the women there in many ways, and somehow gets them to provide excellent service. It is a small business, and if you have ever run a small business then maybe you'd think differently. When I met him, I was actually impressed with how he took a chance and made his business dream a reality.
Look, I understand that there is a basement budget crowd out there. But I also know that lots of these guys complain about the price of a beer going up from $2 to $2. 25. These same guys who insist on bargaining a date as low as she will go, then complain when she doesn't treat them like the man of their dreams.
The owner's business idea was that of a slightly upscale place with certain privacy and protection advantages in place. Although as a customer, I think that his price point was sometimes a little too high, I applaud his business idea, and don't know the details of his running costs, so I let it slide. And actually if you break it down, the total costs are no more expensive than visiting FKK's in Germany.
I don't begrudge those in our community on a budget. But paying $900 versus $500 for a ride on the same crappy plane made in the 1970's is stupid. Prices of gas have actually been going down recently. To me, that is NOT money well spent. I'm not rich, but I do well enough to splurge once in a while if I think its worth it and I am getting something unique. So before I start getting responses of "well I'm poor so excuse me," just give it a rest.
If he is closing shop and lowering prices so that he can go out with a bang, then dude, I am there.

Thanks in advance![/QUOTE]It is "high season" March-April combined with spring break. Go next week or you are screwed until May, there is no magic wand, everybody pays big bucks during this time. If you use FF miles they will charge you double the miles too.
[QUOTE=Charles Pooter; 1387362]That's what most people do. Returning guests, who already know they like the place, may book a longer stay in advance to negotiate a discount, but first-timers are ill-advised to do that in case they aren't happy there.
We would be interested to know why you didn't like Blackbeards. It could have a bearing on whether you will like Field of Dreams. For example, if you said it was too far to walk to the beach at Blackbeards then you won't like Field of Dreams. (OK, that was a silly example but I don't want to speculate on other and more likely reasons).
I would say so. FOD has one or two premium rate rooms as well. Not sure if Blackbeards does? The standard rooms are about the same. Because FoD is quieter, guests can probably negotiate a good discount for longer stays in the off season, but that is not now.
Why don't you check prices on their respective websites.[/QUOTE]Hi Charles,
I read thru FOD's website, & sent them email as far as doing a room only and "pay and Go"
It's not that I didn't like BB, but I had a few issues with the girls.
I went for 2days & 2nites:
ISSUE#1. I desired to go with a girl overnite and after getting her to my room, there was a misunderstanding that she thought she was doing a short stay. I had that issue resolved with one of the mamasans. But later on. Early in the morning she left anyway. I paid her for the short stay rate. I was a little disappointed, but what the fuck, not a big deal.
I had breakfast the following day with a regular, & told him the tale. He felt that I should report the incident to the management. He was concerned that the girl was new, and that management needs to set her straight so she doesn't pull the same shit on another guest.
So I told mamasans what happened, and I later met John and the day staff. They were very professional about it and were behind me all the way.
They don't tolerate this sort of thing, and offered restitution. I declined, because again I didn't feel it was a big deal.
So I went on with day two, and had a good time.
When it came time for the change of shift. 6:00pm, The mamasans, all the day girls and the arriving night girls had a pow wow about a girl leaving a guest before the appointed time. There were about 35 of them! I was like "shit! I caused this?"
I think most of the girls knew who the guy was, and maybe I was a little paranoid, but I was getting some bad looks from the girls.
ISSUE #2; Anyway I had dinner, and later picked out two girls to do an overnight. They were hot, and started out pretty good in the beginning of our session. But half way thru, they decided to roll over, pull the sheets over themselves and go to sleep. I didn't even pop yet!
I don't know if the Town Hall Meeting had a bearing on this? LOL!
It wasn't a pleasant night, and the following morning one of the girls had a bad attitude, the other girl was ok and got the job done.
I talked to one of the girls was I was displeased with their behavior, but it was what it was.
I packed my bags, paid the tab, and left not so good comments on the review card.
I called John the next day to withdraw my hasty comments, he listened, but then said he heard an entirely different story.
"Well of you did. John". He then told me to take my business elsewhere, and I am banned from ever returning to BB.
Banned from a working girl house? I never expected that. LOL!
I booked a second trip two months later to Tropical Adult Vacations in Boca Chica and had a great time. TAV is awsome!
The only drawback about travel to Boca Chica is the 3 1/2 flight time fro JFK to SDQ. JFK to POP isd only a little over 2hrs. I hate staying on a plane, it sucks. It seems that this sort of thing creates a lot of anticipation, and suspense, and every minute on plane feels like an hour!
So that's why I'm interested in returning to Puerta Plata or Sosua for my third trip. I liked the way BB operates, so I'm seeking other resorts that were similiar. And in the local vacinity of POP.

Lapper[/QUOTE]This story sounds familure. I think I was staying there when this happened or if not then a very similar incident happened with another guest while I was staying there.
Was hanging outside one night with a couple other guys around 1 am or so when a chica came out of a room and left, about 15 minutes later a guy came out looking for her but she was gone. The next day there was a big pow wow meeting with momason and all the chicas and the chica that left early was sent home for the day. A night or so later we all wifed up with a chica and had a little party in one of the rooms, the guy who had the chica leave early wifed up with two chicas for the night. Early the next morning I heard doors slamming and yelling from the guy who had two chicas and could hear both chicas walk past my door. He ended up leaving later that day and was very unhappy. Was that you? What time frame did this happen, maybe we met when you were there.

I only flew JFK to POP once, but I do remember the flight time was only a about 2 1/2hrs, both ways, but no where close to three as they say.
Perhaps the pilots were peddling a little faster than usual or something to do with the jet streams. I guess I was lucky, Sometimes this does happen.
I remembered my flight back from SDQ to JFK was only 2 hr 43mins. We were delayed at SDQ, so they stepped on the gas a little on the way home.
In any event, I prefer to fly to POP if I can. Still looking for the right resort in that vicinity though.

Last year about this time, I spent a couple of weeks in Philippines and managed to have a few interesting times with some local women. You can read about them in my posts in the Makati and Manila forums around January, February last year. The good news is, that this year, at the beginning of April, I am going to Puerto Plata in the Dominican for a couple of weeks. The bad news, is that I am going with my occasional girlfriend. In spite of this, I'the like to be able to have a couple of clandestine hookups with some local women, which means some ingenuity on my part. We'll be staying at the be-live on Playa Dorado. At most, I'the be able to duck out for 2 or 3 hours at a time, and my hookups would have be outside of my hotel, but reasonably close by.
Mission Impossible? I hope not. Although I am a firm believer in RTFM, I haven't found any posts that might help me find solve my particular quest, that is, find a ST girl, preferably amateur, for a tryst in the morning, afternoon or early evening, at a location other than my hotel.
Any tips would be extremely welcome. I will be sure to report back on my success or failure (hopefully not). I'd also be pleased to answer any questions about my limited experience in the Philippines.
For those that might criticise me for cheating on my gf while on vacation, please know, I get along with her very well, in most areas except for sex. Because of circumstances beyond her control, sex is unpleasant for her, so I try not to inflict it that often, which leaves me frequently looking for some outside fun, something that's pretty hard to find in my neck of the north woods.

I've been hearing a lot about Sosua lately. A friend of mine is going to rent a place there soon.
Can you tell me a little more about Rocky's?
I have been checking out FOD. Seems to be nicer than BB.
If you've been to FOD and I know you've been to BB, which do you like better?

It is quite possible to pick up non working girls in Puerto Plata but you will struggle to do so within a three-hour window. You might go to the Malecon and find a semi-puta (best chance would be a haitiana) or you might go there four days running and strike out. Not many non working girls would be willing to go with someone they just met for a quicky. If you are young, good-looking, and speak Spanish (or French for haitianas) you might just get lucky but I think you don't want to waste your precious holiday time chasing long-shots.
[QUOTE=Charles Pooter;1388595]You are fortunate that Field of Dreams is only 15 minutes slow and safe walk from your hotel. They have putas and short-time rooms available.[/QUOTE]Don't agree. I think it would be a half hour's brisk walk in hot weather from Be Live along a highway with fast moving traffic and no sidewalk. I would take a taxi or moto. Be Live is at Costa Dorada not at Playa Dorada.
I would agree it would be hard to find an amateur. I would go to Field of Dreams and ask for a companion who needs more experience.

I was wondering if you had any comments about my BB report, and what advise you may have regarding FOD, and how they are compared to BB.
So far Chris Long did not really recommend neither. Highly recommended Rocky's and get girls from the strip.
BTW I did visit Rocky's website. Not too shabby. What kind of rooms can one expect for 27 clams a night?

[QUOTE=I'm Punter; 1388429]Last year about this time, I spent a couple of weeks in Philippines and managed to have a few interesting times with some local women. You can read about them in my posts in the Makati and Manila forums around January, February last year. The good news is, that this year, at the beginning of April, I am going to Puerto Plata in the Dominican for a couple of weeks. The bad news, is that I am going with my occasional girlfriend. In spite of this, I'the like to be able to have a couple of clandestine hookups with some local women, which means some ingenuity on my part. We'll be staying at the be-live on Playa Dorado. At most, I'the be able to duck out for 2 or 3 hours at a time, and my hookups would have be outside of my hotel, but reasonably close by.
Mission Impossible? I hope not. Although I am a firm believer in RTFM, I haven't found any posts that might help me find solve my particular quest, that is, find a ST girl, preferably amateur, for a tryst in the morning, afternoon or early evening, at a location other than my hotel.
Any tips would be extremely welcome. I will be sure to report back on my success or failure (hopefully not). I'd also be pleased to answer any questions about my limited experience in the Philippines.[/QUOTE]I made you a map, Cristols (best looking girls most expensive of the 3) is about a mile, Fod is 2 miles, Blackbeards (2nd best looking girls) pronounced Barbra Negra is 4 miles all distances are the way the crow flies. Cristols I have been there as early as 10:30 am but late afternoon sometime they should be open for a look see like 4ish. Blackbeards is 20 bucks to take them off site plus the girl and Cabana.

[QUOTE=Frannie;1388755]Be Live is at Costa Dorada not at Playa Dorada.[/QUOTE]I know the Be Live Marien which is at Costa Dorada but he posted Playa Dorada so I assumed they had taken over another hotel there. Lord knows, the place is a ghost town so there must be a lot of hotels for sale.
Sorry to have posted misleading info. If at Costa Dorada he is really fucked. He will need to take taxis everywhere and that gets really expensive from AIs.
Thanks to Hillybilly for the map!

1) He is interested in amateur girls. While all the chicas at Field of Dreams are working girls, they are generally more "amateurish" than those at Barba Negra. See Second Coming's recent post here:
[url]http://www.internationalsexguide.info/forum/showthread.php?504-Puerto-Plata&p=1386440&viewfull=1#post1386440[/url]
Not sure if they are inferior in looks on average to Barba Negra girls, though there is a lot more choice at Barba Negra.
2) While Barba Negra do rent rooms short-time if vacant, it is much more accepted at Field of Dreams where there is almost certain to be a room free. He only has a brief window of time to get the job done so he wouldn't want to go to Barba Negra and find there is no room free. He would then need to go to a cabana and, being a complete newbie (who apparently doesn't even know which resort he has booked into) he might not be comfortable with that. This guy will be a sitting duck for rip-offs. Everyone will be charging him more and then adding their "commission" on top. A return taxi trip to Barba Negra, pay a salida, taxi to a cabana, pay the chica, could add up to a real expensive and hurried fuck, whereas he could take a taxi, motoconcho or guagua to Field of Dreams and know exactly what his outlay will be before he even starts. Also the management at Field of Dreams are more friendly and likely to hold his hand if he doesn't speak Spanish.
3) Cristals is very near but the chicas are expensive and not much choice in the daytime. He could do them on site there but it is all pretty squalid, whereas Barba Negra, and even more Field of Dreams, are pleasant environments where he won't feel he needs to take three showers in quick succession afterwards.
Very helpful map, by the way.

Lapper[/QUOTE]Not sure which country uses "clams" as currency. Do you come from Madagascar?
If that means US dollars, the rooms in Rocky's Bar are pretty basic. Sort of place backpackers stay. The owner does offer a variety of other properties in Sosua, and there are several other recommendable hotels from US$40 to US$80. None of them are perfect and which guys choose depend on their priorities and what is more important to them.
Picking up chicas in Sosua is not rocket science, but newbies can come unstuck and fall for scams and rip-offs. If you had trouble with controlling the chicas in Barba Negra you could struggle in Sosua. You will save a bit on prices over Barba Negra or Field of Dreams, but a couple of bad experiences and you will lose more than you save overall. Unlike Barba Negra or Field of Dreams or Passions there is no management to complain to, and if you push your luck you could experience something unpleasant. More choice in Sosua, of course, and the beach is fun in the afternoons.
I find Field of Dreams more relaxed and friendlier than Barba Negra but there are far fewer to choose from and they are not as sexily dressed and made up. (To me that is a bonus, but many guys like the professional puta look).
For the safest option and guaranteed attractive chicas, stay in Sosua and patronize Passions. Still not 100% guaranteed satisfaction (we are dealing with human beings in a sleazy business) but as near as you will get. Expensive though, and that way of doing business is not to my taste, but each to his own.

[QUOTE=GentleLapper; 1388442]Hey Chris,
Yeah I thought it was you. It's good to hear from you too.
I've been hearing a lot about Sosua lately. A friend of mine is going to rent a place there soon.
Can you tell me a little more about Rocky's?
I have been checking out FOD. Seems to be nicer than BB.
If you've been to FOD and I know you've been to BB, which do you like better?
BTW, don't I stiill owe you for lending me 3 condoms? LOL!
See ya!
Lapper[/QUOTE]You have a good memory, I remember giving you the condoms but I couldn't remember how many they were. If you liked BB accept for the mishap that happened than you will probably like FOD because it is pretty much the same type of set up for the most part. I believe the rooms are a little cheaper and the transportation from the airport is a little cheaper as well, but I noticed the food menu was little more than BB, and there's no Yenneys or beach within walking distance. I've never stayed at FOD but have gone there a couple different times in the afternoon to check it out and session with a girl each time I was there. To me FOD and BB are pretty similar, there may be a few slight differences here and there and depending upon an individual's taste some may prefer one over the other, but to me they were basically the same type of program. Chicas available in house at a set price services are pretty much already established and there is someone to complain to if things don't go right. I've heard FOD has chicas staying there and they are available 24 hrs. Which to me is better, at BB you have to pick a chica for TLN by midnight or there will be no other options after that. So if you prefer the basic set up at BB then you will probably like FOD.
Sosua is freelance all of the girls there with the exception of passions passions-sosua. Com / and CMP Club [url]www.cmp-club.de/[/url] Are freelancers. Both Passions and CMP are working girl bars with set prices 2500 pesos for the hour. Accept for my last trip I always had great service from the girls at both of these places. On my last trip I picked a starfish with a BAD attitude, however after threatening to complain her attitude changed 180 degrees. With these two places there is someone to go to if things don't go well. In the rest of Sosua they are all freelancers and there is no one to complain to. For the most part I've always had a pretty good time with the freelancers in Sosua but I have read reports of things getting really bad in some cases. There are also a lot of Haitians available in Sosua. Prices very and you have to negotiate with the chica both price and service. On all of my previous trips I had no problem getting chicas for 1500 pesos for the hour and 3000 pesos for TLN However, on my last trip I noticed it getting harder and harder to get the chicas at this price most were wanting 2000 for the hour and 4000 for TLN and usually had to settle somewhere between the old price and the new asking price. I've always gotten DATY and BBBJ form all of my chicas in Sosua. There is a strip of open air bars that is about a block or two long and this is where you will find the chicas at night. During the day time there are freelancers along the beach. Personally I prefer Sosua over BB or FOD there is a certain vibe and excitement about cruising the strip and picking up chicas and there's fare more variety.
The $27 rooms at Rocky's are basic but not bad, (its an extra $10 if you want air-conditioning) I've stayed there a couple nights and it's not bad if you are on a budget. Rocky's also has other locations that are like a one bedroom apartment for the same price you would pay for a hotel room. There are many benefits as well as detriments to staying at Rocky's I won't go into all of them here but its basically not a bad deal for what you pay and you also get free transportation from the airport [url]www.rockysbar.com/.[/url] Another place you may want to consider is the new garden.

BB is the state of the art for casas on the North coast, FOD is the little sister. Girls and activity at BBs is better. FOD is trying to compete. Both have decent accomodations, food and set prices for the girls 1600 p-esos short term. It is shooting fish in a barrel. Not really my cup of tea. I like Sosua because of the selection and the day activities. All most every women you see is on the menu. For newbie BBs is a must but when you get your big boy pants come to Sosua.

There are others such as; Dough, bread, beans, Molaah, smack-a-roos, bucks, notes, etc.
Anyway I'll use USD or Pesos whenever I post here.
Your post actually discouraged me a bit. I've been to DR twice so far, and I do not feel ready to go for freelancers in Sosua.
BTW: I was just PM'ed from someone who read my report regarding BB, and He stated that him and his buddies had a similiar experience like I did at BB's. I had a hunch there would be others.
So I don't blame myself for what happened to me at BB. Bad timing, and a few bad apples I guess.
I went to TAV in Boca Chica, which is probably the best for any newbie. I highly recommend them. It's all inclusive, included activities, beachfront, the management gets you anything you need, the girls are sweet, and they set the benchmark when it comes to GFE.
But you really don't get much street education when there, because you have everything you need on the resort.
So I'm still a novice as I was when I left BB.
I read your post very seriously, and I have come to the conclusion that I will not go to the streets of Sosua by myself. To partner up with someone who has aced the area is my best bet.
Otherwise, Passions or FOD here I cum.
Thanks Charles.
May 2012 : stayed at BB.
Oct 2012 : stayed at FOD.
Feb 2013 : stayed at BB.
I had a good time at FOD and probably I will come there again in the future, but, in my opinion, today BB is better than FOD in everything : the resort by itself, the organization and the global level of girls.
Hello All,
I will be taking my 10th trip in 3 years to the DR starting Feb. 26th to Mar. 2nd. For the past 2 years I have been enjoying reading this site with all the great info. And to be quite honest, I have enjoyed the percieved personalty of the members here.
I'm usualy the type of guy thats low key with my mongering going only to FOD / Cristols / BB's. I decided to change things up a bit for two reasons and I want to tell you why.
(1) It was something DeepImpact said."To give back to the forum is to show respect". And he's right. I also view this to mean "appreciation" aswell. I do appreciate all of the info and stories posted here in the last two years. For my NEXT TRIP I plan to go to Pattaya or the Philippines But before I do I need to complete my DR experience (For me) and go to Sosua. Wich brings me to the second reason.
(2) It was something oldkool said recently. FOD and BB are good but when your ready to put your BIG PANCE ON you need to come to Sosua. I laughed at myself because (In my mind) he was talking to me. And he's right. I can't MOVE ON until I go to Sosua.
SO, I will be FOD 2/26 for 2 nights before moving on to Sosua for the weekend. Checking out Passions and Dlatins etc. Ending my trip at BB's. I will be posting reports the morning of every night spent in the DR. I'm looking forward to giving back to this forum in my reporting. Thanks again guys for all that you do. Anyone down there at that time let me know.
There is a new night club in Puerto Plata called the Cocoa Club where they have mujeres bailando desnudas. Taxi drivers are being offered 500 pesos to bring in customers and they seem to be working hard to promote the place, so don't expect it to be cheap. It is located where the El Boem nightclub used to be. I understand they have live-in chicas.

No doubt it will run for a while and then expire for lack of clientele.

Luckily for you, you can have the best of both worlds. You can stay at Field of Dreams and visit Sosua by day or in the evenings. It only costs 45 pesos (50 at night) each way (just over US$1 each way). When you get to Sosua you can meet up with some reliable experienced mongers who will will be happy to show you around and point out some possible pitfalls. You could literally walk to every place of interest in Sosua in one afternoon. It is a very small town.
(That is not strictly true. Sosua is comprised of several "villages" spread over a wide area, but the only part you will be interested in on your first stay is El Batey, where all the action for gringos is.)
I would be happy to help you with both aspects. Using the cheap public transport system from Field of Dreams and meeting helpful mongers in Sosua. (Not saying you need my, or anyone's help, to get started). Could also show you the little that is of interest in Puerto Plata.
Also at Field of Dreams you might share taxis with fellow guests to places of interest.
Alternatively you could stay in Sosua, use Passions, and let guys introduce you to the rest of the town until you have built up the confidence to go it alone.
I have always preferred to monger alone but my first visit to Sosua I was grateful to be guided by three experienced guys who I first met that day. That was seven years ago and we are still good friends.
How's your Spanish, by the way? Having no Spanish will restrict your options but won't stop you having a good time.
[QUOTE=Frannie; 1389274]There is a new night club in Puerto Plata called the Cocoa Club where they have mujeres bailando desnudas. Taxi drivers are being offered 500 pesos to bring in customers and they seem to be working hard to promote the place, so don't expect it to be cheap. It is located where the El Bohem nightclub used to be. I understand they have live-in chicas.

No doubt it will run for a while and then expire for lack of clientele.[/QUOTE]Went past today and saw their new logo on the gate. It is linked "C"s above a large crystal. I wrongly assumed that the place was now under the same management at Cristals, but it seems that they are just cashing in on the name, like when those dumbasses re-opened Field of Dreams as "Whitebeards".
Might take out a second mortgage and invest in a bottle of water there just to scope the place out. I bet there are no haitianas there so I wouldn't patronize the place even if I could afford it.

E. Hard, sharp, and expensive.
They are working hard on kitting out taxis with stickers promoting the place, and I imagine will be trying to compete with the Cristal Rio Spa and Club for the all-inclusive dime (USA slang word meaning ten-cent piece).
[QUOTE=Charles Pooter; 1389322]Sorry, didn't mean to discourage you. Hundreds of newbies visit Sosua for the first time each year and have a great time.
Luckily for you, you can have the best of both worlds. You can stay at Field of Dreams and visit Sosua by day or in the evenings. It only costs 45 pesos (50 at night) each way (just over US$1 each way). When you get to Sosua you can meet up with some reliable experienced mongers who will will be happy to show you around and point out some possible pitfalls. You could literally walk to every place of interest in Sosua in one afternoon. It is a very small town.
(That is not strictly true. Sosua is comprised of several "villages" spread over a wide area, but the only part you will be interested in on your first stay is El Batey, where all the action for gringos is.)
I would be happy to help you with both aspects. Using the cheap public transport system from Field of Dreams and meeting helpful mongers in Sosua. (Not saying you need my, or anyone's help, to get started). Could also show you the little that is of interest in Puerto Plata.

My Spanish vocabulary is little to none. Been thinking of going Rosetta Stone or something.
Funny thing tho;
I remembered when I left BB in June '12, I told the Cab driver "POP in Puerta Plata". He actually drove me to the Heart of the city of Puerta Plata, and was going to drop me off.
So I had to spread out my arms like airplane wings and imitated sounds of a jet engine. He then nodded his head, and took me to POP.
I figured I better learn some Spanish for the next time, or I'll really run into some Havoc.
When I went to Boca Chica, I really didn't have issues, because the resort manager picks you up and back to SDQ, no charge. The girls and staff spoke pretty good English.

[QUOTE=Isc55; 1389227]May 2012 : stayed at BB.
Oct 2012 : stayed at FOD.
Feb 2013 : stayed at BB.
I had a good time at FOD and probably I will come there again in the future, but, in my opinion, today BB is better than FOD in everything : the resort by itself, the organization and the global level of girls.[/QUOTE]Hi,
Probably all true. But I'll see for myself.
I was at BB, but I cannot return there to further comment any future BB visits.
So from I'm reading all over the forum regarding good remarks about FOD, I'll eventually compare my experiences with FOD to BB.
Maybe I'm missing something. I have beenatBB, and the resort pictures that FOD present on their website looks so much better than BB. Are the pics deceiving?
*I'm curious to know why after you going to BB first, what was the reason why you went to FOD on your second trip and not BB, then back to BB?

Airporto works for going to the airport.
Sosua us very easy. You will have no problems. The guys there are fellow mongers they will give you all the help you need. The green in your pocket will do all the talking you need.

[QUOTE=I'm Punter; 1388429]Last year about this time, I spent a couple of weeks in Philippines and managed to have a few interesting times with some local women. You can read about them in my posts in the Makati and Manila forums around January, February last year. The good news is, that this year, at the beginning of April, I am going to Puerto Plata in the Dominican for a couple of weeks. The bad news, is that I am going with my occasional girlfriend. In spite of this, I'the like to be able to have a couple of clandestine hookups with some local women, which means some ingenuity on my part. We'll be staying at the be-live on Playa Dorado. At most, I'the be able to duck out for 2 or 3 hours at a time, and my hookups would have be outside of my hotel, but reasonably close by.
Mission Impossible? I hope not. Although I am a firm believer in RTFM, I haven't found any posts that might help me find solve my particular quest, that is, find a ST girl, preferably amateur, for a tryst in the morning, afternoon or early evening, at a location other than my hotel.
Any tips would be extremely welcome. I will be sure to report back on my success or failure (hopefully not). I'd also be pleased to answer any questions about my limited experience in the Philippines.
For those that might criticise me for cheating on my gf while on vacation, please know, I get along with her very well, in most areas except for sex. Because of circumstances beyond her control, sex is unpleasant for her, so I try not to inflict it that often, which leaves me frequently looking for some outside fun, something that's pretty hard to find in my neck of the north woods.[/QUOTE]First let me say that you could be criticized for not taking advantage of your trip to the D. R. Ab sampling the locals. Not sure how you Spanish is, but if you don't take the advice regarding F. O. D, there are a couple of Car Wash joints close to Playa Dorada on the main strip. There are always girls available. There is also a cabana close by, on the same side of the street as F. O. D. Girls are friendly. Share a few beers with them. The cabana is basic, but cheap. You may just want to go there anyway for a beer just to get out of the resort. Who knows, you may find someone there that you can hook up with for the duration of your trip.

Our friend is trying to sneak out for a quicky. Not sure he has time to "share a few beers" unless he is damned quick drinker, plus he has to allow 15-20 minutes for transport each way. Also depends what time of day he is sneaking out. There may "always be girls" there from late afternoon on, but earlier in the day those places are deserted. Finally, as you suggest, he would need Spanish to pull something at a reasonable price, whereas he could get by at F. O. D. without.
Brethren! I need a little info.
I've decided to spend the first few days of my March trip in Santiago instead of Sousa, so I can pursue some non pro leads. Any advice on how a inexpensive, or a least reasonable priced way to get from the airport in PP to Santiago? A buddy told me he paid a taxi $100! I know it can be done for less. Thanks in advance!

Lapper[/QUOTE]Answers to your questions :
1- Pics perhaps are not "deceiving" but always are a picture that is not exactly what you found.
2- After reading a lot of different opinions about BB and FOD I wanted to see FOD and so to get my own opinion. For my third trip I decided to come back to BB to confirm my opinion about it and also to meet some girls I loved in my first trip.
I find very intelligent you want to compare both resorts by yourself (it is exactly what I did!)
