    Notes on my first Puerto Plata trip

    I stayed in a Playa Dorado resort. Discussing chicas with resort staff was as easy as talking about restaurant choices. Almost everyone pointed to Cristal strip club. Reasons given ranged from safety to most beautiful chicas being there. Following their advice was expensive, but worth it. Will say right away that I tried one other place and quality went down dramatically. So here's the cost (USD): 30-taxi roundtrip, 100-business. That's the minimum. Drinks easily take another 40-50, trip to cabana adds 40 to chica, 15 to cabana and 20 to taxi. 10-20 tip was asked too. These additions highly worth it with the right girl, and most of them are very right. Awesome girls, simply awesome. Last note, going there the first time was kind of stressful. I went to the left bar and was swarmed with girls. It may sound attractive, but i didn't like it at all. The bar on the right gives you some breathing room, where chicas apparently have to stay a few feet away and only approach if you gesture.

    You got ripped. First there is no extra for her to go to a cabana and second, tipping is not required.

    Otherwise, a nice recap.

    thanks

    They saw the wrist band around his wrist, and the price of everything automatically went up. But the main thing is that he enjoyed himself.

    Glad you had a good time namokk, and thx for the report. Now the way I understand it you spent about 270 US that night, most of it going to taxis and the chica/cabana. A good time can be had a lot cheaper without sacrificing quality. You spent in one night what a lot of guys spend for STs for 5-6 days.

    I spent around that amount on ST's over my twelve days in Sosua last reach........staying at Casa Marina puts a crimp in TLN's.........lol

    Re: Notes on my first Puerto Plata trip

    Thanks for comments guys. Like i said, i tried going to another place (called Bohem or something) and didn't like what they had at all and went back to Cristal. Taxi driver didn't know any other "good" place. I realize I had "gringo schmuck" written all over my face that cost me extra and speaking 2 words of spanish didn't help. I would appreciate pointers for my next trip, like place names, etc.

    $100 is the on-site ST rate.
    To take a chica to a cabana or anywhere else, one has to pay the salida which is around $40, unless she doesn't stay there and you get her number to hook up when she isn't working.

    I take it you've left. Next trip get a regular hotel in Sosua and we'll show you the other side of town.

    But thanks for the report. Got pictures? Even non-chica pictures are appreciated. Especially food, some of us really like the food pictures.

    might add that in sosua, most everything is assessable by walking. i.e. zero bucks put out for cabfare

    But know you know and it cost you under $100 for this mistake. No big deal.

    ST is generally one shot or until the chica decides it is too much work to get a load out of you.
    Could be 15 minutes, could be 1 minute, or it could be an hour with 2 shots.
    Depends on you and the chica.

    As I recall, they had 2 or 3 rooms so if there was a line, you won't be in there for 2 hours.

    Whether or not Cristals is a ripoff is debatable but you paid the standard prices of $100/$140 for everybody, gringo or local.

    They did not jack up the prices because of your wristband.

    It's possible to pay the salida separate and make a deal with the chica and possibly save a little but it's also quite possible that she would be less motivated as a result.

    Several of the girls who only work at night do not stay there and can be hooked up with during the day or any time they are not working thus avoiding the salida.

    I didn't say 2 hours.
    I said you could get 2 shots in 1 hour.
    I have had sessions in there that were over an hour and the chica was in no hurry to leave.
    I often see guys go up and be back down at the bar within 10 or 15 minutes.
    The $140 takeout price could be for one quick shot or all night.
    As always, YMMV.

    I only did onsite once and I believe after 30 minutes we had to leave so I always choose TLN.
    Once upon a time the owner would work with us and we would take 6 chicas out of there everynight.
