Myself and two of my best friends spent the first week of June in the DR. This report is just some of my observations and are my own opinions.
I should first start out with a little background info. We have all been to Thailand two times within the last two years. We are not experienced mongers by any means. We are all in our early thirties and are single professionals in the medical field. This was our first trip to the DR.
We flew out of JFK and paid $375 USD for roundtrip. We were originally scheduled to land in STI but the runway was being fixed so we had to land in POP. We only found out that we were going to land in POP after we were in the air about an hour or so. No problem...they said that there would be buses waiting to transport us to Santiago. It ended up being a BIG fiasco. We waited two hours to get on the bus and then on the way to Santiago, the bus driver stops two times....one to take a piss and the other because "it was time to eat"!! Welcome to the DR I said. There we sat for 30 minutes while the bus driver took a break. We ended up in Santiago late in the eve. and took a taxi to the Aloha Sol hotel. Great place...nice people. The rooms were comfortable and all I really needed was a place to take a shower at this point. After taking a shower, we ate at a restaurant about a block up from the Aloha Sol. The food was great....maybe a little pricey. I noticed that they had two menus. Immediately my thought was... "Oh, two menus, one for the locals and one for the travelers" I'm not sure if this is true....maybe someone else can help. It is definately believable. After dinner, we took a taxi over to Illusions. We grabbed a few beers and sat down. The ladies were very interested so I grabbed one and threw her into my friends lap. He smiled ear to ear and said "here we go"! Yep, that's what I wanted....LETS GET THIS PARTY STARTED. We ended up having about three drinks before we decided to each take a girl home. I can't remember the specific price but I think it was around 3,000 pesos each. Tried to bargin but didn't get anywhere. The one I took was about an 8 and her name was "blondi". She had very curly blond hair...cute face. Back at the hotel, my one buddy took his girl to his room to get frisky. My other buddy and I ended up with both chicas in his room. We closed the door and I immediately striped naked. It was funny seeing thier eyes light up. Within minutes, all of us were on this little double bed doing the nasty. WHAT A BLAST. After an hour or so, or should I say, after blowing my nut, the girls got up and left. Wow, not sticking around? Ok, I'm tired anyway, so off to bed I go. NOTE: if you go to Illusions, just sip one drink, find the chica you want and either get out or take her to the back room. The prices are high. Also, I noticed some fellow in the club with a machine gun under his coat. Made me a little nervous. Has anyone else seen this?
The next day we took a taxi to Puerta Plata and stayed at the Lomar hotel which is located right next to the beach. This place was not as nice as the Aloha Sol and the air didn't blow cold enough for me. I like it cold! We ate at the outdoor restaurant next door....good food...I would eat there again, definately. In the evening, we ended up taking a taxi to a few bars nearby.....can't remember the names. Both of my friends hooked up immediately but I wasn't settled on a Chica yet. Somehow, by myself, I ended up at Crystals. I had pretty much to drink and it was about 1:30 in the morning. I was still feeling frisky so I took this tall black Chica back to my hotel room and she was great. It cost me 2,000 though.....I won't go back anytime soon.
We ended up in Sosua the following day after taking the bus from Puerta Plata. Met an American fellow from South Carolina while on the bus. He showed us a few bars upon arrival to Sosua and we ended up staying at the all inclusive "Sosua by the Sea".
Side note: I had originally planned on all of us staying at the "Palace". Unfortunately, I did not like the looks of this place from the outside.....looks like a dump. I lost my hundred dollar deposit but didn't really care. I did look at the rooms though and they looked great. I must say that John was straight up with us. I guess I'm just a little picky? I have heard many great things about the Palace.....It just wasn't for me.
Sosua by the Sea was great. The staff was friendly and the food was pretty darn good. Plus, I loved the outside bar.....and the pool. We ended up staying at Sosua by the Sea for the rest of our vacation. Every night, we went mongering and found PLENTY of hot Chicas. In Sosua, I never paid more than 1,000 for a Chica. There are plenty of places to drink/party....... ALL night if you want.
I personally, each night, picked up a Chica.....took her to the Cabana for an hour and booted her. Watch out for the Chicas who try to pick your pocket.....happened to me twice. They didn't succeed and I was really pissed off at the time. I kept my cool though...but it was tough. There are some desperate Chicas out there so watch out. I would be real careful bringing one back to my hotel.....if you stay at a Chica friendly hotel. You never know what you are going to run into. Some of them were great in bed....and some so so. If you want a GFE...you can have it....no problem. The trouble is trying to get rid of em! Remember, if you are a gringo, you are like a bullseye with a BIG dollar sign. I really got tired of saying "no gracias" to all of the moto's. It got old....fast.
One day, we rented some 250cc dirt bikes. I would only recommend doing this if you are an experieced rider. Since I have been riding since age 15, I felt comfortable. I currently have a harley at home and ride over 10,000 miles a year. The bikes were kinda shitty but did get us around a bit. We rode to Cabarete in the evening. The price for the bikes was 1500 for 24 hours. Never leave the key in the bike and park it behind a locked gate before going to bed. There are some pretty cool places in Cabarete......definately worth a visit.
While in Cabarete, I met this 21 yo bartender who was WAY HOT. I tried to ask her out but she didn't really say yes but didn't say no either. From reading other posts, I thought that all the Chicas were "for sale". Maybe I didn't go about it the right way or??? I guess some of the non-pro's might me off limits unless you spend time and money on them. Help me out here?
All total, I spent about $800 plus airfare. I chalked up six more babes to my list. I probably could have bargained harder at times but it just takes too much of my energy....plus we are dealing with a couple of dolllars here.....not a big deal for me at least. I will definately be back sometime soon. Hopefully real soon! I will learn more spanish....DEFINATELY.
