May 30, By Nick. It has been three months of mayhem in Sosua, in the Dominican Republic. I left it off my recent best vacation destinations for single men list because of a police crackdown on the girls, which included closing most the big clubs. Seriously, that includes the staff. At night the main drag in Sosua is full of girls that will grab you by the arm. Minutes later, they can be in your room. The clubs are basically whorehouses and you need to head to Cabarete for a normal night out.
The beaches are amazing and Playa Sosua is pretty much paradise. Girls will hit on you on the beach, in the street, in a restaurant and just about everywhere else. Until you get used to saying no gracefully, it can get pretty weird. In Sosua, everything closes down at 1am during the week and the big clubs go until 3am at the weekend. Yes, clearly. Some of these girls from the Dominican Republic and neighbouring Haiti will blow your mind. Just have a look at Dominican Cupid. So if you want to meet a precious, unspoilt flower then, well, good luck with that.
But you have a much better chance online. A lot of these girls have a scar or three to their name. Drug addiction can be an issue, too, so look for the signs. Haitians have truly dark, amazing skin and they can be absolute stunners, too. Whatever it is, you can cut a deal. Some girls will stay the night, wake you up in the morning the best possible way and then have breakfast with you before taking off. Others will want to get one more client in before the end of the night and will try and short time you.
The Schlemmer Stube is one of the cheapest places to eat, too. Bourbon Street tends to be pricier, although the quarter chicken and sides is a bargain at pesos and the quarter rack of ribs is just 50 pesos more. That drink can be a cheap way of deciding if you want this girl at all. Most hotels charge an additional fee for bringing girls back, too, or ban it altogether.
Because I booked through Airbnb I was a private client, so no extra bills…. New Cafe, past the Plaza Europa on the right, now does the best breakfast in town, for around pesos, a little more if you get extravagant. It comes with free OJ, fruit, coffee and everything else you could want to start your day. They do proper American-style breakfasts, too. They do basic food, exceptionally well. They have themed nights, like Taco Tuesday and Friday pie night. It can be a struggle to get a table.
