07/2019 - Sosua update, I am a Newbi but not New to the Game

[texcowboy]

I would say that's a pretty good representation of what you are going to find at Blackbeards
Not all of those girls will be there as they come and go all the time but it's a good bet that some of them will be there or something similar.

Blackbeards has had a pretty good reputation for quite some time. It's just that after a couple days your likely to get bored and want to try something new.

If you decide to make it part of your trip I wouldn't stay more than one night since you are only in country for a few days.

Or even better hire a driver to take you there and go spend an afternoon having some fun.

Thanks JD:
Here is what we are thinking from the advice of others:
1. Hit the ground in Santiago.
2. Stay the Night at http://hotellosjardines.com.do/
Get some shut eye and be skip the midnight taxi ride for safety reasons..
3. Go To BlackBeards on Thursday/Thursday night and let my buddy get a 'for sure' warm up on these chicas..
4. Leave BlackBeards on Friday and head to Sousa/Sousa Beach stay at one of the three below:
A. New Garden
B. Sousa Inn
C. Alicia Beach
This is the current plan..

Welcome texcowboy, do you realize you have been the inspiration for an 11 page, and still going, newbie thread?

Unheard of around here. Usually a few posts in and the new guy is gone.

You have received great advice and recommendations and as XXX mentioned awhile back, you've asked questions in a polite manner, unlike so many others, and look at the feedback you've got? A great exchange of questions and answers.

Maybe it's too late for this if you already have made reservations, but if not, due to the hour you are arriving plus the time it will take to clear immigration, change money, etc....as a first timer to the DR, plus having your buddy with you, please consider a night in Santiago to get some sleep first. Then a taxi to Sosua the next day.

Check out booking.com for the Aloha Sol Hotel near the monument in the central part of Santiago. Been several years, but I have stayed there on 2 or 3 occasions when in Santiago. You'll probably check in about 4-4:30 am, they do have a staffed reception desk, get your room, grab a hot shower and some shut eye. Maybe work out a late checkout, depart at 1 pm in a taxi, arrive by 2:30 pm in Sosua and right on time to check in at your hotel there.

DO NOT take a taxi at that hour for that drive. Just too many accidents. Maybe the taxi guy is a solid driver but it's always that other guy you need to worry about. Take that arrival night and get a good nights sleep then by that next afternoon, you both will be like a couple of young colts ready to kick down the barn door!

Your 55 year old buddy will suddenly feel as if he has discovered the fountain of youth as he takes that first walk on Sosua Beach. You guys will be looking to book your next trip before your current one is even over!

Check who's traveling to Sosua when you guys are there and maybe you can meet up somewhere for a beer and shoot the shit. A great way to learn some valuable do's and don'ts. I'd love to hear about some of your Mexico travels, as well as other spots you've visited in the past. Bet you have some great stories, and insight, that many of us would appreciate hearing.

Have a blast and when you return home, post a trip report to make sure Jimmy knows what he's been missing for a dozen years!

Thank you Mr.Smooth..I do like to ask a bunch of questions and I have been so lucky that others have been so willing to help out with their advice.
We are taking your advice which corresponds with many others also and leaning towards the following itinerary:

1. Hit the ground in Santiago.
2. Stay the Night at http://hotellosjardines.com.do/
Get some shut eye and be skip the midnight taxi ride for safety reasons..
3. Go To BlackBeards on Thursday/Thursday night and let my buddy get a 'for sure' warm up on these chicas..

Well, when they come back, hopefully they'll post a GREAT trip-report.

We have just purchased a burner phone for pictures.. I hope we can live up to the hype of this thread we have created and try and meet the expectations of everyone dialed in.. Even though its not Boca

That was when we were in Boca Chica for a couple days before we headed to Sousa last January.

Looks like the lounging pool atop Frio Hot in Boca Chica. I spent a week there last December, and enjoyed it; but it seemed kind of small and confining, after all my recent trips to the Philippines and Thailand.

One thing on going to Blackbeards is you wouldnt be going over the mountain road like you would to Sosua...that is crazy at night...

I am not an expert on Santiago to Blackbeards at night but way safer than that mountain road...And you would get laid by a chica waiting at pool that night...But overall Smooth is good advice..

Maybe some other guys can chime in on that route at night....

Well I just talked with my buddy and if others are right:
Plane lands at 1:59 am.
1. Clear Customs
2. Exchange Money
3. Eat Breakfast
It appears it gets daylight at around 6:19 am or so..
We thought we could just sleep on the plane, and by the time complete steps one and two we could catch a ride to a good spot to have breakfast at..
Daylight comes and my buddies Cialis should be kicking in just in time for him to hit BlackBeards for a warm up..

Jimmy will love that..

Jimmy will love the fact that something in Boca caught my eye for sure!

Even after staying in what you described as " A broomcloset" at the Walkabout in AC ,,,????

Not talking about the room. I had one of the front 'balcony' rooms at Frio Hot -- I think it was the one above Greydread's room that he described on his Boca Chica TR.

I'm talking about The Strip, compared to Walking Street -- either Walking Street.

I recognize about half of the chicas photos from BB. They are real, but they have full make-up on which they always don't have. Those current pics are real as well as the newsletter photos. All photos on the newsletter were taken in the previous 2 week time prior. If you are staying at BB 1 night, be sure to make reservations there, as sometimes they are booked. They have upped the chica rates since I was there earlier this year.

They have indeed ... but the exchange rate has 'upped' to more than 50 pesos to the Yankee Dollah. Maybe the rates are just keeping pace?

Here is the latest snag I just received from BlackBeards: FK

Thank you for your interest in Blackbeards resort. We are sorry but due to the high demand for reservations during our event days and nights, ( Thursday, Friday and Saturday ), as well as numerous no shows, we can no longer accept one night reservations. We would like love to have you stay with us therefore, we offer these two alternatives:

1. Extend your one stay by one or more nights, either before or after your original reservation, and if we have those nights available, we will gladly accept your reservation.
2. Or, you can come to the hotel that day and if we have a room available, you are welcome to stay.

We hope you decide to join us!!Great Pirate Plunder!!….


As others have mentioned we planned on staying only Thursday night with a warm up then heading to Sousa for Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and leaving Monday EVENING..
What are your thoughts on asking BlackBeards to Book Thursday and Sunday? (THEY MAY NOT EVEN DO THAT SINCE ITS NOT CONSECUTIVE?) BUT OTHERS HAVE SAID TWO THINGS:
1. DON'T STAY AT BLACKBEARDS FOR MORE THAN ONE DAY OR YOU WILL GET BORED
2. SOUSA AND SOUSA BEACH IS THE PLACE TO GO IMMEDIATELY AFTER YOUR WARM UP SESSIONS..
ANY ADVICE ON THIS MATTER WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED...

I would skip it and go straight to Sosua,,,,,

[Hunter]

I would skip it and go straight to Sosua,,,,,

yeah...no way 2 nights....you could just go on Thursday and see availability and if nothing then just go to Sosua and grab a hotel there....it is low season so you definitely will find a hotel in Sosua walk in....Alicia for sure.

[TNT72]

I would skip it and go straight to Sosua,,,,,

Or, stop in Thursday and see what's up. If they have rooms, get two. If not, see if they have any short time rooms available and drop that first nutt and head on to Sosua. If they're booked and can't handle the business, head on to Sosua. This is just a little bump in the road.
