Jaco / Jaco Beach

[QUOTE=Nixonbd;2852238]Just a few general things to consider; all should have been previously reported on:

-Make sure where you're staying is guest friendly.

-The girls will start high and most will ultimately settle for lower, rather than " stand around all night". It's always a good idea to discuss what you're paying for so there are no surprises. NEVER PAY UPFRONT! You may also consider to ask her if she has any "extras"; which will cost more.

-Jaco is typically a safe place, though there are some sketchy types outside the gates who know there are gringos inside who have cash on them. Keep your whits and don't get so sloppy drunk that makes you a target.

-If you make a connection and take a girl to wherever you're staying, don't let your guard down to valuables in your room or the potential that a girl could slip something into your drink.

If you have specific questions, best to ask.

Just a few tips.[/QUOTE]Good tips. Thank you sir! Would you have any opinions / tips on the massage parlors there? Anything to watch out for if visiting one of them?

[QUOTE=Kilobytee;2852394]Good tips. Thank you sir! Would you have any opinions / tips on the massage parlors there?

While I have no direct experience myself, I know of a few gents who inquired about "extra services" and received them for compensation. It never hurts to ask, right? You can also check out the CR Skokka ads for massage services, to see if there is anything posted there.

Can anyone tell me how Jaco us during Sunday to Wednesday before the weekend hits.

Are there still a lot of baddies available.

PM me for details. Remember the massage parlor girls will happily come to you! Of course you can't be staying at one of the gated condo communities with the 24/7 guard cause theyll never let her in.

One of my favorite things to do when walking the main strip is check out the many massage parlor girls who are ready to jump all over you just like Bangkok. I walk up one side the street, then back the other so I see them all. When one catches my eye I get her name and number, which is the number of the massage place.

I keep this in reserve for nights that I don't want to go out to Cocal, G spot, orange bar, republik etc all the places. I call up and get her to come over whenever. Typically I'll drink a few glasses of wine and have a bottle of Fireball Whiskey ready (very popular with all the girls). I'll get a massage, typcically 40, and then extras, 125. They all, I mean all, offer extras. Never had one who didn't. A great way to mellow out after 10 hours on zoom, its the real carrot on the stick that gets you through the workday. The true reward.

Neither will Crocs or Best western.

Are there still a lot of baddies available.[/QUOTE]I'm there twice per year, and always go for a week to 10 days. One can always find gals during the week Sun-Thurs, but the numbers are just lower. So rather than have 100-150 girls on a weekend, there may be 50-60 that come through. The key is not too go to late nor too early. There are still enough to find one you like, I have never had an issue during the week finding a good one.

Not able to see anything explicitly mentioned here about how many pops included in the 30 minutes for most girls.

Looks like the standard rate is $60 for 30 min. Do chicas typically let you go the full time regardless of finishing early?

As to your second question that would vary. Just ask for a bit more massage if you popped early. They are not likely to kick you out after 10 minutes if you paid for the basic half hour, but you may need to communicate that.

Hello everyone! I'm planning my first solo trip to Jaco and looking for guest-friendly, quieter accommodations near Cocal. Is staying at Cocal recommended, and is it noisy there? I've also got a rental car deal but considering hiring a driver for my first time in Costa Rica. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

I've seen some contradicting reports. My girl and I are thinking of booking at the BW for various reasons, and will have a car.

If we pickup a girl in town and drive her into the resort ourselves, would that work? I know if the girls show up by themselves then they will not be allowed in. But what if I drive her in?

Thanks all.

I'm looking to split time between SJ, & Jaco. It's been 10 or so years since I stayed in SJ. From what I found via search.

-AT&T works fine in both SJ & Jaco assuming the $10 international pass fee / day added. Anyone had issues?

-Gyms / mongers hangout, Sportsmens or Taormina seem most abundant for like minded gents? Gym, both have a good one. 24 hours?

-Jaco hotels, seems a variety of places. What are the most affordable chica friendly places? Any monger hangouts in Jaco?

-Laundry service offered at hotels?

I am planning a few weeks with 3/4 days in Jaco with rest in SJ. Hoping January. Any other tips would be appreciated!

Thanks all!

Thanks all![/QUOTE]On San Jose, yep, Sportsmens Lodge and Taormina. The gym at Sportsmans is very minimal, and it would be locked up overnight, not sure of the hours. Don't know about gym at Taormina. Sportsmens can have your laundry done for a fee.

Jaco. Cocal. The chica friendly part changes from time to time in most other places.

Staff was great.

Only negatives. The bar / restaurant is pricey but a lot of good places to eat nearby.

Room rates really went up after the remodel.

But it is still my favorite place to stay in Jaco.

Hardrive.

What was cost for a room at the Jaco Hotel?

I'm planning to go to Jaco in July but don't won't to pay Cocal prices for a chica friendly hotel.
