    She originally tried to charge me 3500 until I said it was 2500 next door. I let her buy a drink and her whiskey and my beer cost 450 (no change given from 500). And the taxi driver charged 300 when I said it should be 200 but the house security said 300 so I didn't want to make a scene or walk away with chica in tow.

    I expect several veterans to laugh at me now....go ahead.
    you'd be a lot better off going next door to Boca Chica....

    Riky's and Lapsus are the same club.

    The Gerente Principal is named Riky Valvery, and he interchanges the names, and if you pass the club you will notice signs for both names outside.

    The link below, which Maretti provided in KoKi9290's recent thread Reporting from SDQ (http://news.insearchofchicas.org/for...reply&p=838906), has the best map for Santo Domingo mongerers I have yet seen. I will definitely use it when I go back. Not a photo tour of the Malecon/Hotel Jaragua area like this thread, it is a much more comprehensive map, an annotated google map for mongerers throughout Santo Domingo:

    You are from Chicago? PM me what you know about chicago and i will tell you what i know about the santo domingo casas

    check out some of the trip reports there are full reports on all of the casa's

    but here is a quick overview

    dollHouse and foxy's cater to tourists and rich dominicans. They have amazing girls from both DR and other countries but all cost $200 and up.

    Pink pony is out of the way for the normal tourist at the end of nunez de caceros and kennedy. 2-4 girls all pretty good looking 1500rd buys you 30mins.

    There are tons of other clubs and spots to go around santo domingo. i hope your spanish is good

    This is great, but it was posted quite a while back. Are the clubs/restaurants (for the most part) listed on this map still there?

    My first trip to Santo Domingo is coming up fast, Oct 11. I've been going through this forum with a fine-tooth comb, but if anyone wants to give me some advice about the best places to go and what to do, I'm all ears.

    Sorry that the street names on this picture of my map are illegible. The street along the ocean is George Washington Avenue (the Malecon). The street just north of that and parallel to it, and where we start our journey, is Avenida Independencia. Basically we start at the Riazor Hotel (1) on Independencia Avenue, walk west to Socorro Sanchez, turn left and go down that long block to the ocean, turn left on the George Washington Avenue (the Malecon) and pass by the Jaragua Hotel, the Melia Hotel and the Intercontinental Hotel, before turning left on Avenida Pasteur to get back to Avenida Independencia, where we turn left again to get back to the Hotel Riazor.

    Here is what we will see (as numbered on my horrible map):

    1) Riazor Hotel
    2) Manolo Cafe (restaurant)
    3) Aurora Club
    4) Riky's Nightclub f/k/a Lapsus (and former Tabu right next door)
    5) La Parada (club)
    6) La Parada (carwash)
    7) La Parada (restaurant/bar)
    8) Jaragua Hotel and Casino
    9) Melia Hotel and Casino
    10)Torre Veiramar (condo highrise)
    11) Intercontinental Hotel and Casino
    12) Sky High
    13) Satin Dolls
    14) Girls House
    15) Mystik Hotel
    16) Hermanos Villar (restaurant)
    17) Bank/ATM machine, pharmacy, Claro and Orange Phone Stores
    18) PLD (Dominican Liberation Party, headquarters of political party of President Leonel Fernández)

    Thanks, this map helps a lot since I just moved to la capital from Puerto Plata. I have a spinner lined up already but wanted to hang out for a few drinks first before heading to a hotel or cabana. I am familar with that area cuz I stayed at Maison Gartreux down from the Bodega Independecia. I wanted to go to la Bodega and have a few drinks then jump a cab or walk to either a cabana or hotel closeby. I think the cabanas are further down the malecon. So my question: is there a decent hotel comparable to price and ameneties as a cabana there closeby or best to jump a cab to a cabana down the malecon. Just looking for a place to hang out first knock the edge off. It would even be better a club around there inside kinda dark to hang out first then go to hotel closeby or as I mentioned jump a cab to cabana. Planning on going around 5 pm today. Thanks, Puerto Plata is el campo compared to SDQ. lol

By taking this walk, you can see many of the most talked-about clubs, casinos, hotels and restaurants. After completing my first visit to Santo Domingo, and seeing lots of the city outside this particular area in my rental car, including the colonial zone less than a mile to the East, and the university area, less than a mile to the west, and other clubs and restaurants to the north, I would say the particular area I will show you in this thread, through pictures I took on my walk around the Jaragua, is a perfect home base for anyone, especially if he doesn't have his own wheels, as I did.

    If you're interested in this area, also check the prior thread of Cheeno, with many better pictures of the same stuff: http://news.insearchofchicas.org/for...ad.php?t=39319. (How to get to Sky Blue, The Girl's House, Aurora, Tabu, and Lapsus) Some clubs have changed their names or moved, so my thread here is designed to point out the most current info, current as of two days ago, when I took these photos, and did the walking tour.
    Anything new to report?

    There are lots of changes in the chica department of that area.
