Santi action

[mikelodge]

Yeah I'm very interested in this red light district in Santiago or anywhere in DR really.

You would think the red lights would give it away. Only kidding!

Yep I was at Ahi Bar one night and there was a table with guys and girls having a few cocktails. One extremely hot chica kept staring at me. At first I was not sure as she was sitting with a group of friends. She walked by me a few times as she went out to make phone calls. .. . . and made major eye contact.

On their way out she stopped and put both hands on my knees and said "dios te bendiga por tus ojos". . . . . she smiled and paused a second or two. I said gracias and she left. No doubt I could have gotten her digits but didn't feel right asking while she was hanging with guys as well as amigas.

When I first started traveling to Santiago, the Ahi Bar was reccommended as a place to go meets girls. No hardcore pros per se. Just opportunistic girls who can appreciate a gringo with a little disposable income.

Quite a few non-pros hang out there as well. Sunday night Karaoke is a veritable feast for the eyes. But it is pure murder on the ears.

That truly was a great place for a meal and to see many, many chicas come thru.

Been there a lot of times. Nice place to sit and drink and people watch, and the food is good also. But I never have had any luck picking up girls there, I never even have seen any, I would have suspected to be in "the business".

You'd be surprised. True, they're not as obvious as in the tourist areas. But you can always find a few there.

But I've done better there with the non-pros. I'm always able to get a number or two for later use. But YMMV.

I am heading down to DR for a few days in a couple weeks and was wondering if anyone had some good reccomendations for Hotel in Santiago, close to all the action spots. Let me know. Many thanks.

Hodelpa en el centro is very nice it has a casino, the hotel across the street has one as well, I can't remember the name but it is not as nice, not as expensive either.....close to el monumento... at night that place is off the chain...but more men there are selling ass than bitches so be very careful...some are pretty evident.....but others, you will have to ask "chico o chica" or maybe even do a package check. they look that real. my gf always says " that bitch looks prettier than me" when we drive past at night. matum is across from el monumento it has a casino also..it is live like you would not believe...you will find all your needs met there in the casino or out front with the food vendors


But the most important thing is to make sure you know before you go (if she says only oral or only anal you know) .

I really enjoyed this post. How many times in life have I let that one get away. Its torture, but i really think they never disappear from memory. I die the death of a thousand cuts remembering them.. Man, this girl whacked you on the side of the head.. lol.

I stayed in Santiago for 4 nights my last time down before heading off to Sosua for the other 10. I stayed at the Aloha Sol Hotel. About $52 a night. Maybe a 10 min. walk to the Monument. On a couple streets next to the Monument are several bars and a few good restaurants. My favorite was Montezuma. Great food and a nice atmosphere. Much tougher in my experience to score with the chicas without a workable knowledge of spanish. Others may disagree with that. Had a decent time but 2 nights would have been fine. Have a good trip!

I have been looking at hotels there also and wonder anyone has any comparisons of Aloha Sol to Platino and Century Plaza as far as price and location to the action (food and friends). I found Platino on Expedia for $48 and Century Plaza for $58 with Welcome drink and breakfast included but both these rates were without taxes and I don't know if they are guest friendly. It also appears that they away from downtown one half way to the airport the other just north of town. Anybody know ??????????

[christianor1967]

Thanks for your answers ... Corrado / Mr. Smooth & Mikelodge. I will look up the hotels you guys suggested on the net and see if there is anything that catches my eye. Looking for safety, security and chica friendly as my top 3 decision makers. If it looks too much of a hassel, i might just head directly to Sosua.

This should be one of the more active threads since Santiago has a great but expensive P4P scene. Just notice that the major casas in Santo Domingo the best looking girls are from Santiago or Cibao region.

Pardon my very limited experience but I stayed at Hotel Century Plaza on Rafael Vidal on Sunday night and have to agree with DC that YMMV. The last poster to this thread mentioned it is a good area as SD chicas come from here well I would know nothing about that but I like and embrace locals that show me a degree of friendship whether it is moving down at the bar to get me a seat or whatever and I did score or shall we more accuately say hook up here. Right outside the hotel they have a connected restaurant (fine dining, upscale for the area) with outside patio where many locals were dininking including a National Policia guy with his woman and another couple. They were nice to me and we all had a couple of rounds before I asked the guy if the local (friendly looking casual place) right across the street west from Century Plaza where the hotel sits at the back was safe or any good. One of the ladies said she knew someone there and went over. The rest will be in a segment of the trip report. It wasn't cheap. Oh and yes this was after my lovely left to go back to POP another story the best one. I am trying guys

that is one of the better restaurants in the area , it is about 5 minutes from my place there and we eat there frequently...

Are you referring to the hotel one or across the street the action place?
I ate once at each and if you are referring to the hotel one it is excellent at least the french dip type sandwich I had with the shrooms and onions on like a ciabotta bread was great with just right amount of Au Jus no mess perfecto.
I will probably stay there again when I fly out a few times from there in Jan, Feb, Mar. and April they were nice to me. We will have to try to have a drink
