After chilling with Yayow and Greydread, I recall him shopping for hotels and remember him saying that this place was high on the list, before he ended up at the fancy Trump towers of Boca Chica.

After I got fed up with the conditions of El Caucho and how I was treated and had issues with missing/stolen money I checked it out.

I would not say it is a dramatic improvement over El caucho, but IMO

Pros

You cannot beat the location. The beach is right next door The Duarte is right there. The supermarket, ATM's Western Union, Beach claro, anything you need is right there within a 80 yard radius. If you are familiar with Sosua, imagine if ROckys or NG was directly on PedroC around where the Winners circle was, and the beach was right behind it.
Has running water and in fact had no issues with hot water or flushing toilets at all.
The safes are the pin number type you can program.
Some of the staff speak english, and compared to Chantel over at El Caucho, it will come in handy if you have an issue.
They have 4 floors, but it has an elevator, and it might be the smallest elevator I have ever seen, and it might be powered by 3-4 domincans pulling a rope.

Cons

If you like it super quiet, you might have issues at this place I didn't have an issue with noise but when Duarte is rocking you will hear the music faintly.
I actually technically stayed there on 2 occasions in one trip. I checked out and when my flight was canceled, I stayed there again another night in another room. Both rooms did not have a blanket. I did not have issues with temperature or anything, but only had sheet covers. I fuck onto of the blankets and sleep underneath, just thought that was wierd.
I got WIFI on the second floor on the beach side with no problem, but on the second floor close to the duarte side, it came in only half my rooms. I suspect you might have issues on the higher floors.

There are actually some real nice options for hotels in Boca, some new ones, the problem is that the new ones put you away from the action, the hotels closer to the strip are older and in many cases in some form of disrepair. So unfortunately if someone wants proximity to the strip and beach they often lose out in the type of accomodations that many have gotten used to. The place where Greydread stays at is close to everything but by Boca standards is expensive, $150/night for two bedrooms but all the amenities. I guess if you got someone who is a good wing can be considered reasonable at $75/night each.

How much is this place per night??? I saw yayow mention 150 a night for 2 beds buti I don't think he was talking about this place just hotels in general for the boca chica area.

I need to find a hotel for tomorrow and after reading some stuff here I might need to keep looking a little more.

I'm big on the wifi in my room and ac and if possible something close to the strip. There was one hotel that yayow said is across from a 24 hr casa but I remember dr always being so hot I need an ac option or very good cieling fans.

Thanks for sharing this information.

I think $40 per night the casas are a 5 min walk away

I assume the other place was villa Florencia which is where grey dread and crew stayed

Yes the other place is villa Florencia, which is high priced by Boca Chica standards, but is the lap of luxury, in Boca and most places, a good deal for the price if you have a good wingman, alone I wouldn't do it. Madjera is good value, at $40 a night basically right at the beach, and a block from the strip, many other options in BC in the $35 -$55 per night range. I recommend finding a place pay for a night, and then look around and see if you want to go somewhere else for a night or however long your stay is for.

DD, give me a call when you reach, the number is the same, if you don't still have it pm me, and I will give it to you again. One thing I don't answer calls that are blocked or it says unknown caller, so if your number or name doesn't come up, I won't answer, I like to know who is calling and be able to call back if I want.

I tried to do that as well, but it just plain ain't practical, especially in my case, since I work here. I finally ended up getting a second phone.

One I give out to people I trust, and the other to folks I may or may not want to talk to. (You've got them both.)

The "trust" phone, I always try to answer, blocked number or not. The other is a crap shoot for the caller.

If you ever stayed at the new Garden, I would compare this place with the shittiest room at the NG on the old side, but even closer to the strip and beach. No breakfast included, but plenty of places around within walking distance, and the beach next to the hotel, so technically it would be ocean front, although you should avoid that area, since that is the anus of Boca Chica as far as hustlers, vendors and beggers, and is the worst area of the beach, not that there is any good areas these mofos are everywhere, this is just the worst part IMO. I would recommend going further down the beach area and always ask if there is a charge for the table.

I never would of guessed this was a hotel if it wasn't for Greydread Yayow and other dude we met who I think recommended this place to us. I don't know much about Boca Chica, but this place is in a category by itself compared to the hotels I've seen and we are comparing Apples to Lobsters

I think this is the front of it, and to the left, in the far back you can see the building with a big dish on top? Thats was the apartment building for the Candy Shop, which is one of the higher end casa's which had some nice ones in there. They also had a glass window, which kind of gave it an Amsterdam feel to it, with hookers in windows.

I still think of the girl I didn't take from there a blanca with a really tight athletic body, hope she is still there:rolleyes::lol::lol:

The Hotel Europa is right across the street from the Madejra. I stayed there 4 nights in August at $40/ night. They do have breakfast. I got a balcony room facing the Caribbean (1 block away) but the AC was broken. No problem, the ceiling fan worked just fine. The room had 2 beds (1 to play, 1 to sleep) and the accomodation was very basic. It's extremely convenient to the strip on Duarte just go out the front door, turn left and walk 10 paces. There is no wifi in the rooms. They have wifi in the lobby and in the dining room. No need to call for reservations. There's always room.

The last 6 nights I spent at Villa Florencia. I got a 1br suite for $100/ night. Moving there was a relief. For one thing, being right on the strip kind of sucks when you're trying to get some rest or have an intimate My room at Villa Florencia had AC units in the bedroom and in the living room. There was a 40" HDTV with cable in the living room, full kitchen with all the cooking and eating utensils and accessories you could want with service for 8, including cognac glasses, champagne flutes, the works. My apartment had a washing machine (no dryer though) in the bathroom, hair dryer, iron & board, name it. The service was impeccable and when I brought Chicas there it was drawers off at the door. The place is very impressive and I wouldn't carry the hood rats that rolled with me at Europa there though. The rooms have wifi and a hardwired LAN connection. I highly recommend this place. It's catty corner from the Candy Shop and you can sit on the balcony (bedroom and living room have separate balconies) and watch the Chicas roll up and down the street between the bus stop and the strip/ El Batey.

I've also stayed at the Calypso Beach Hotel (which is not on the beach). It's across the street from Villa Florencia and on the opposite corner from the Candy Shop. It's $45 a night with balcony, AC, wifi in the rooms, no restaurant. It was okay. (809) 881-6929 (Rafael) or (809) 523-4666 (Front Desk). Clean, affordable, 3 blocks from Duarte with multiple casas within 3 blocks.

There's 2 other places I considered which are, well....really cheap. The kind of places I would stay if I was staying in Santo Domingo and just needed a place to fuck/ crash for a night.

Castello Italiano ($25-$35/ night) (809) 924-0610 Calle Juan Bautista Vicini #16 (2 blocks North of the park)



Villa Marianna ($35-$45/ night) (809) 523-4679 villamarianna@live.com Calle Juan Bautista Vicini No. 11

I don't have the digits with me now but there's another small hotel with a casino and a restaurant directly across from the Play Boy House. I ate there one afternoon after returning my Puta to the club and the food was really good. I met the owner and he gave me their brochure and a rate of $45. night with breakfast but I didn't go upstairs to check out the rooms 'cause she threw my hip out of joint with her Pum-Pum. I might just try this place next trip. The problem is I'd be so mesmerized by all the beauties at the club I'd probably never even make it to Duarte. It's a popular place with the Gringos. There's a large colmado on the next block and the bus/ gua-gua station to Santo Domingo, Coleta. SDQ, etc. is two blocks away. There is a lot of non-pro/ semi-pro action along this route and for $26.30 you can get just about anything you want.

Where should I stay for one night? Something nice and chica friendly.

All the places I mentioned are "Chica friendly" otherwise WTF would a guy like me be doing there?

If you like the strip on Duarte and the beach and plenty of cheap, low end, freelance Putas I would stay at one of the places mentioned at the beach (Madejra, Europa, Coco Playa, etc.). If I was really, really cheap I'd go up the hill to the Castillo Italiano. There's all kinds of freaks in and out of there and the rooms are basically tiny little fuck bungalows like the type found in the first ring of Hell. For $25 you can't be real picky.

On the other hand, while staying at Villa Florencia I have pulled Chicas on their way to the gua-gua stop while out front sipping a Presidente and shooting the shit with the security guy. I have met Chicas from the Candy Shop at the colmado down the street and got their digits for later. Every Chica who walked in the door came out of her clothes immediately. Those balconies are perfect for naked romps.

It's up to you. More comfort=more money, however in Boca Chica "more money" really isn't all that much.

Here's where it starts making better sense to go with the high priced spread. The 2BR is $150/ night, cash. For $75 each you'll share a completely guest friendly accommodation, the likes of which would easily cost 4x that much in any major city in the US. The bedrooms are virtually soundproof and each has its own balcony. There's a 3/4 bath in the master BR and other than having to share the single safe I can't think of a single other downside.

In talking with the management the real benefit comes in on long stays. The manager promised me a rate of $1,800 for a 30 day stay. I will be checking him on that promise.

Don't compare things here with Stateside prices. Comparing with stateside quality is OK.

IMHO, 1800 for 30 days is way too much. That's 60 bucks a day for an extended stay (I almost wrote "long term") I can't see it being more than 1200-1300 for a months stay. The owner of the apartment should be willing to drop much lower than 1800.

And if I'm not mistaken, Villa Florencia is NOT a hotel. They are luxury apartments that some of the owners are willing to rent out when they're not here.

That's like calling Casa Linda a hotel. It's not.

Villa Florencia is a condominium complex where the owners rent their places furnished so it isn't a "Hotel" in exactly the same way the Acuarium isn't a "Hotel. Hotel Acuarium is $60 a night without breakfast ($10 more with:mad:) and even when the Acuarium was at it's peak, around 2007 it was definitely worth the money in comparison with other Santo Domingo accommodations but it isn't even close to Villa Florencia, quality wise.

You want to talk about quality v cost? I've stayed at both the Mandarin Oriental (Suite) in Washington, DC and at the Barclay Intercontinental in Manhattan (suite) for around $1,200/ night each and Villa Florencia holds its own with both of these places as far as both quality and service are concerned. It's a great place for discriminating travelers without holes in their pockets.

My August experiment taught me that spending $200/ day versus $100/ day for meals, lodging and incidental expences Punani) more than triples my value. I'm just glad I decided to be cheap for the 1st half of my trip rather than the other way around. Trust me, it took a Month to wipe the smile offa my face. I guess that's why they call it a vacation.

My point before was you are comparing the cost to the price of luxury places in the states. You need to compare it to luxury places here.

1800 for a month in Santo Domingo will get you some incredible places that would put Villa Florencia to shame, as well as the stateside places.

But, I guess when you compare it to some of the USD$60,000 a month places here, it is indeed, a bargain.

Intel on the Dominican Republic goes stale quicker than the milk there. That's why I don't make decisions on long term lodging until I'm on the ground, expecially in Boca Chica. I have yet to be turned away from anyplace for lack of vacancy. I think I'm going to try the hotel/ casino across from Play Boy on Ave 20 Dec next time just to check it out...if it's still open. With pop up on site happy hours right across the street for $2500RD I may not even make it down to Duarte.

It was funny as hell back in June when we went there (about 6 of us) and we're sitting around drinking Presidentes and chatting the Chicas up and all of a sudden the manager yells "Happy Hour!". Boca Chica has something for everyone and the "in-your-face" street Ho action is only a small part of it.

The thing that I've found about BC hotels is that every price, everywhere is negotiable (except the resorts, Hamaca, Don Juan, etc.) just like the Punani.

the Madejra is diagonally across from the Europa and about the closet non AI Hotel to the beach as you can get..........
it was like $50 bucks a night 6 years ago at the Madejra so $40 bucks is a deal and a half........
mi would make this my first choice for sure at $40

Coco Playa is also right on the beach. It's a real shithole though. The Italians who bought the old Don Emilio when the original owners built a new one don't seem to have invested a dime in the place in the 2 years they've had it. I spent a night there since the ownership changed and I refused to take anything out of my bag but what I was wearing and I never pulled the cover down off the bed, in fact I put my beach towel down to fuck on. I could only get the nastiest Ho's on the strip up there with me, so I did. I got two of them for 1000RD.

...but there's free breakfast.

Speaking with the owner of Porky's in August, she's telling me they've got a dozen rooms upstairs that she's renovating to let. I will be keeping an eye on this as it develops. Their restaurant on the beach side does decent business but they're putting more money into the nightclub side on Duarte. Properly funded they could have something really nice there.

Me, I'd turn it into a straight up whorehouse and rent the rooms to the finest Ho's in town giving them cut from the bar/ restaurant business they bring in....bad idea, I'd eat, drink and fuck my way through the profit.

It's a fucking shame. It's got a nice, solid structure with views of the Caribbean all around and the penthouses facing the Sea directly have great potential. The owners are the last vultures, picking the corpse clean until they can sell for a profit to someone willing to make a proper investment in the place. There's a lot of that going on in the D.R. right now.

I've stayed there each of the last three times (years) with no major issues. Central to everything...bars around the corner, across from beach, a block from pharmacy. It is VERY MODEST, but was clean each time I stayed there...cheap as well. Chicas - never had a problem, and 99.9% of guests are mongers, usually of the Italian sort (but so is Boca Chica in general). Once I had a room where the A/C did not work, they sent me up to the much larger rooftop room without charging extra. It kinda of reminds me of the Palace in Sosua in the old days. No pool, but ocean is 100 feet away. One room also had a constant water drip, but like I said if you were find banging chicas at the Palace in Sosua you won't give a shit here either. There's a guy that serves fresh grilled pork sandwiches from his food cart just outside the front door....good food at 2 am when you need something other than another shot of Brugal or pussy juice...
The hotel can arrange airport transfer, Bruno is his name. Nice guy speaks only Italian and Spanish, he charges around $25 one way - which seems high to me knowing the proximity of the airport to BC.
Down Duarte (main drag) there's an Italian restuarant towards Bonita Isle Bar, called Italy Italy that offers freshly made pasta dishes - one of my favorite places to eat.
Lots of chicas everywhere--from too young (watch out) to over-used hardcores. I was swimming once in the beautiful Boca Chica bay (its like a large swimming pool) when a 17 year old with a firm rack and pretty full lip smile, swam over to me, wrapped her arms around my neck and begged me to let her suck my dick for her birthday coming up in one week, unfortunatley, I was leaving the next day and did not partake with a chica still under legal age :-( But, flew back in two weeks... :D

For the big anniversary, the hotel would be the perfect choice. Though, I still get tired and bored of BC after just 3 days....I prefer the north coast.

The problems I had with the place were:

1. They vary on the price anywhere from $40 to $50. Seems to be for no apparent reason other than they want to rip you off or see if you will negotiate or not.
2. No hot water when I was there
3. You have wifi on every floor but it doesn't always work.
4. You need a lock for the safe, though if you have a room that has an extra room just for the deposit box. You can put the safe on the door instead of on the safe. You still have to buy your own lock though.

I can deal with the other stuff. As mentioned in the original post, it is a great location. Right across the street from Piano Bar and el colmado.

That said you can probably find other alternatives if you don't like the price or something else. I know I didn't mind moving 2-3 blocks for what I was able to book.

I just stayed at Madejra for 5 nights and had a pretty decent stay I'd say.

The hot water was always working when I needed it.

The A/C was always cool.

Staff was decent. I didn't need anything so I can't say how helpful they may or may not be regarding resolving complaints.

Location is convenient to the beach, WU, bank, colmado, supermercado, several bars/restaurants.

Sometimes the front desk or security ask for cedulas from chicas, while other times they seem like they assume you know what you're doing and won't ask if you take your chica straight to the elevator.

Few things some may not like: No ceiling fan, safe with key, tiny TV, and I'm not sure, but the wi-fi didn't seem available from my room the one time I checked. Personally, I don't watch TV in DR except if I catch a game in a bar and am not too dependent on wi-fi or can always find a suitable place that I'd prefer to be at instead of my room anyway. I'd stay there again.

I don't remember if it was this place or another, but I recall being bothered about no hot water, but since it was better then not having any water and watching Toro's ass shaving his head in the pool, I said I will shower in cold water.

I agree. BTW, I have seen a lot worse places to shave than the pool. El Caucho was a nice little spot to stop and meet & greet and get a drink on and despite Yayow's best efforts they just weren't up to it. That's okay, he put in a monumental effort, the ISOC bredren came out in force to support and the Ho's all co-operated, making it a trip to remember. I met more ISOC bredren that week than the whole rest of the 7 years I've been on here.

My 1st 3 trips were before the curfew went into place and you could buy booze well...any time you wanted it. The farmacias didn't close until the casas did and they didn't close down until there was nobody left standing and unfucked/ blown.

My 1st trip to D.R. I encountered total chaos and I loved it. It was just so refreshing that everything and everyone was for sale. Not under cover like back home or you had to know who to see about a problem but EVERYBODY and EVERYTHING. I was watching cockfights until dawn on my balcony. Throw a couple hundred pesos down and dude got a pequeno for me and one for him and bring it up ice cold, telling me how much his Sister (babymamma) want to meet me. Man Santo Domingo was the kind of ill that struck a chord with me and I'll never forget those days.

That's true but in a way these days it's just as good. A lot of the old flavor of Santo Domingo is gone but there are new happenings that can be just as much fun. I'm glad they changed Boca Chica from the sewer that it had become and there's new money and new life in that town now. For less than the cost of a beer Chicas can get a ride there from Santo Domingo and that provides a steady stream of fresh talent and on any given night anything can happen. The "curfew" has become so relaxed that some nights it seems like there is no curfew.

yeah it isnt a new place and i can imagine there is a lot of slacking when it comes to a lot of things. i didnt want to say anything like your comments just because everyone has different comfort levels. that is another reason i added the video and pictures, otherwise its just some smart ass commenting and hoping you have the imagination to accurately visualize the place (very few here have such an imagination).

i found this other place i liked better on my 2nd trip there. and there are guys who found even better places though you have to dig through their reports to extract that information (which absolutely sucks imo) but if you keep up with reports on the area im sure its possible to get that info or ask the right people in order to get it.

important thing about boca chica is location. you want to be in proximity of the strip and the beach, close enough that you can walk home at any time without fearing of being robbed by ladrones or the police yes the police will rob you and if they feel necessary they can also kill you and have that covered up...flipping yet? :corky:

thats not boca chica..thats dr in general. ive had an incident outside of boca chica with another bm and we were told by the police themselves we were lucky they found us and not the "bad cops" or ladrones, they told us we could have easily been dead.

my uncle just got robbed for his truck on sunday and escaped an attempted murder...hes still recovering according to my mom as per our conversation just this morning.

my recommendation was stay near the things you need to be close to. you advise someone staying far off the strip where they will be working? all im saying. dont pretend like dominicans are good people, there are a lot of fucked up people on that island and a lot of them are hungry. hungry enough to where your tourist life doesnt mean shit. sorry maybe im just a little jaded today. damn flu and thinking about dominicans just doesnt make me feel goood tonight. but theres always tomorrow i guess.

Absolutely 110% correct. You, my friend, are right on the money. If one were to read the daily newspapers here, it would put the island in a completely different perspective for them.

There is a certain safety factor when a person travels with a wingman(s) of course. There's safety in numbers.

Jimmy is also a lot more aware of his surroundings than he lets on at times. I've known him long enough to know he isn't one to take foolish chances like some folks do.

The good folks still outnumber the bad folks by a sizable margin, but then again, how many bad people does it take to ruin your vacation?

There are reasons bad things happen such as walking around drunk or looking for drugs will get you there in the fast lane.

I was just looking at US stats issued by FBI yesterday. All those bad things that happen in DR happen in the US, more often.

There are some people that should never leave home and they assume all are like them. I met a few of these fools in my time. Guys walking around with $5,000 and their passport because they think the hotel staff can get into their safe, for example.


Yes, use whatever common sense there that you use at home, all the time.

i dont believe in statistics put together by the fbi :rofl:

in america marijuana is classified as a schedule 1 narcotic and marinol is schedule 3.

i walk around my neighborhood at any time without any fears. in dr im scared of the fucking dark :rofl:

are you comparing the united states of america with that little half an island they call DR? gotta love statistics.

im going to bed. sorry i even brought this up sir.

everyone should be careful in dr. thats a backwards ass country to say the least. any country as backwards and fucked up as DR is a place where you should be extra careful at all times. that was my main point.

One thing a cop I know told me long ago. They can't hide murders. The murder rate is real whereas all those other stats are under reported.



At least in DR, if you are mugged, you can get someone to deliver fast justice.


You are right sort of, "ALWAYS KEEP YOUR GUARD UP"

no different than the J island.....always watch your back.....the areas away from the tourist areas are even worse....
tourist areas are considered safe by locals....go into the wrong section of a city there.....and you'll pay.....
