Quarter Saladaeng is sort of my go-to place to stay when I'm in BKK. The have a cafe (Lapin) in the hotel and across the road there is the Commons, a space with different cafes and restaurants you can chill at. Along the same road, there are plenty of cafes and restaurants, pharmacy, 7eleven etc. Yes, they also have the shuttle to either BTS Saladaeng or MRT Silom.

I can confirm that it is not necessarily true in Jupiter. In my last trip, two of the boys I invited over for drinks (and eventually offed one of them) were both not wearing any number tags but were available for offs. Best to check with mamasan if you're interested in offing any particular boy, even those without tags.

All 4 of them have straight guys among the model for hire, but for Jupiter at least (can't comment on the others), some of the straight models either only go out with girls or can go out with guys but have some limitations on what they want to do in bed with you. You can check with the mamasan to confirm.

That's awesome. Hope you'll have a good trip there and looking forward to your report! The weather should be a lot better as well by then, I think.

Hey guys, This is report on my trip about 2 weeks ago in BKK. Had a work engagement there and decided to extend the stay for a short weekend vacation. Thought I'd share some info on the bars I've visited. (Sorry for any typos or grammar issues 🙏. Writing this out on my phone) Jupiter Finally, after talking about it in a few reports, I finally took a guy out from Jupiter! Lol I came in initially just to watch the show. It was a Friday night but the bar was no where nearly as crowded as before. Still a lot of customers relative to the other bars I went to, but plenty of empty seats. I had one of the mamasan helped me with the boys. Basically, from what I understand (and confirmed by the boy I eventually offed), about 5-6 guys only exclusively go with women. From the rest, a lot of the str8 guys are ok to go with male clients but vary in terms of what they are willing to do (usually they won't kiss other guys). The ones that are open to all are the gay models. The first guy I invited over for a drink was a fit, next door kinda guy that I had my eye on in my last trip. He spoke limited English so we chatted with a translator app. He quoted THB 4000, was ok with to fuck guys but he doesn't kiss. I thanked him and gave a small tip for his time. I then selected another guy from the rotation. He was lean fit, from Cambodia and smiled a lot. He was OK to do a lot of things (as a top, of course) and was pleasant to talk to (even gave a brief rundown on some of the other guys I was interested in). I offed him for a ST. We went to get something to eat before going back to the hotel. The only turn-off with this guy was that he brought up how he was financially struggling and had family issues several times from when we left the bar. I gave polite responses but didn't probe further. Back at the hotel, he did everything he said he would and we had a good time. All in all, I paid THB 1900 (2 drinks + entry fee + off fee) to the bar and THB 3000 to the model after having some fun. Atlas I went here on a Sunday. This was the biggest shock for me. The bar was deserted. Only about 8 guys on rotation, with probably only 1 qualifying as a muscle/bodybuilder. The others were either slim, overweight or just average. Only one other client beside me there. I didn't see any of the other Tawan guys that were there on my last trip. I spoke briefly with the owner but he seemed tired/distracted. After one drink, I just left. Tahn Tawan This was formerly Tawan/the One. Apparently, a new owner bought over a couple of months back (I'm sure someone mentioned this in another report). The bar was actually crowded, and there were more muscle guys/bodybuilders here than at Atlas. Some of the faces that were at Atlas before came back to Tawan. They had around maybe 15 guys, of which half at least are muscle/bodybuilding type of guys, while the other half is a mix of lean/fit next door guys or average twinks. (The guy who previously played the doorman role is now in rotation) I saw the guy I've offed several times before and decided to off him for that night. Huge bodybuilder guy, solid muscles though not shredded for competitions yet. He told me that he and several others left Atlas because apparently Atlas is trying to cater more to clients who prefer twinks (though from the my earlier visit, hardly seems that way). The new owner of Tawan apparently is a nice guy and flexible with the models. I had a good muscle worship session with him, followed by a good, passionate sex. Would definitely come back for him in my next trip. Cost-wise, boy's drink + entry + off fee was THB 1500, and tipped the guy THB 3000. Non-bar Boys Aside from the bars, I also had a long time session with a previous off who no longer works in bars (at the moment, at least). The sex was good when we met, but after that it was a little disappointing. I wanted to have a cuddle buddy for the night and maybe a morning sex too (hinted that to him before bed). I ended up with neither 🤣. He doesn't cuddle much, and was rather fixated with his phone. We had breakfast in the morning, tipped him THB 3500 and decided to go on with my day. He was a really sweet guy but whether it was because of miscommunication or he was just not into it, it seemed like a having a long time with him was a mistake on my part. Anyway, lesson learned 😅. Weather It was raining everyday when I was there but thankfully, only short rain spells which cleared after sometime. And the night was mostly clear while I was there, so no interruptions on my night activities.

Yeah, they approached to ask if I'd wanna have fun and I asked them how much.

In my recent trip, the asking price I get is around 450 to 500 for the lean/muscular type in garoto. In the sauna, the most I've been asked is 300.

I am envious!! Haha, hoping to try visiting Rio during carnival or maybe NYE next year.

Hey all. I've been travelling around a fair bit in the past few weeks, so thought I'd share brief reports in the next few weeks on my experience at some of the places I travelled to. I was in Sao Paulo and Rio recently (you may have seen me posting a couple of weeks/months earlier asking questions on Rio). As a disclaimer, I was actually more occupied with non-sexual touristic activities (which I will not bore you with), so there's probably not as much I can report on regarding the sex scene. Sao Paulo I was here just for 3 nights (weekend) and stayed at Intercity The Universe Paulista - close enough to walk to Av Paulista but far enough to not be troubled by noise etc. I had no problem bringing in a guy (without registration) much like most hotels Thailand. Garoto com local - I only hired one guy from the site who came to my room. A little on the higher end when it comes to fees - BRL 500 but I think it was worth it. The guy is a professional model, tall, muscular, masculine and gay. Told him what I was into and he was able to do all of it. I had a good time with him. The models on the site that I contacted mostly quoted prices between BRL450 and 500 (with one quoting BRL 800 and some didn't even reply). Lagoa - this is the only sauna I went to during my short time at SP. I went there on all 3 nights (around 8pm) and found there to be a good number of guys on each night, a good mix of different types of guys. I had one guy here, muscular top straight guy but can kiss, do foreplay on top of the usual sex. He quoted a higher rate when he approached me but agreed to BRL 200. There were a few other guys who approached me with the same rate, but I either didn't have the time on this short trip or the guy was just not my type. One of the guys asked me to join him for drinks at a nearby bar after Lagoa lol. All in all, I found most of the guys here to be quite relaxed and friendly. (Info for 1st timers - you collect your towel and locker key at the counter. The key comes with a locker number which will be used to purchase drinks and rooms. You'll get two large towels and a pair of slippers. Tips to the guys you take are paid in cash separately to the guys and the other payment for drinks, rooms etc. will be paid at the counter either by cash or credit card). Apps - there are a lot of guys for hire on Grindr. I've had a few chats but didn't really hire anyone there. Rio I was in Rio for 4 nights during the weekdays and stayed at Grand Mercure Copacabana. Prior to the trip, I contacted the hotel to enquire on their visitor policy and they confirmed that I can have visitors at the room but the visitors will have to register at the reception. Unfortunately, I was not able to test this out as the guys I had were all at the saunas. Clube 117 - I went here on Tuesday and Thursday around 8pm. While it is obviously more crowded on Tuesday with guests (free rooms), I found that on both nights they have a good selection of guys of different types. I had two guys here on separate occasions, each for BRL 200. Both were muscular tops with good physique, handsome looks. The 1st guy was unfortunately not a good experience for me. We had used the translator to communicate what I was looking for and he was ok with it but during the session, he said he doesn't do certain things. When I showed him our earlier translated conversation, he insisted it wasn't what I understood it to mean. Not sure if it was a genuine miscom or just him being sneaky but I cut the session short and just paid him his fees to save myself the headache. Fortunately, the 2nd guy was better. He was upfront about what he can and can't do, and I had a good time with him. He was more passionate during the session and was overall a pleasant guy (during and after the session). At both session, the room was not really cleaned properly that the models had to call for one of the guys working there to change the sheets etc. (Info for 1st timers - you collect your locker key at the counter. The key comes with a locker number which will be used to purchase drinks and rooms. Once you go downstairs, the worker at the locker will hand you two towels and a pair of slippers. Tips to the guys you take are paid in cash separately to the guys and the other payment for drinks, rooms etc. will be paid at the counter either by cash or credit card.) Point 202 - I was here Monday and Wednesday nights around 8pm. Some similar faces seen at 117 but generally I find the selection of guys to be more limited. I didn't take anyone from my visits here though so I can't report on the rooms etc.(Info for 1st timers - you collect your locker key at the counter.

Once you go in and find the locker section, the worker at the locker will hand you two towels and a pair of slippers.

At both saunas, they had good drag shows during the time I was there. I like the overall floor setup of 117 (sauna/steam room and shower at lower floor, bar and porn room/lounge at separate sections of the ground floor, and other rooms for fun at the top floor) compared to Point 202 (you'd need to cross the bar to go the top floor where the sauna is). Apps - there were a lot more guys for hire and normal guys just looking for sex that contacted me. Compared to SP, I find the guys on the apps in Rio to be easier to approach. That's pretty much it on my report for this trip. Hope it'll be helpful to those making their way there. I'm already making plans for my next trip to Brazil 😬

Many thanks for the input guys. Yeah, it didn't seem quite right but as I'm not familiar with the practices there, thought it would be best to check with the experts here first. Thanks for this @speedoo1. I take it the model/muscle types would probably fall under this category?

Hey guys, Is it common for the escorts to ask for payments in advance? I see that mileroticos has a filter for models who don't ask for advance. If advance payment is required, is the practice to pay the full sum or just part of it? In my last trip to Medellín, I didn't encounter this but recently, a few of the models I've chatted are asking for it (and mentioning a rate of COP 300). 😅

There's a difference between registration of a person as additional guest to your room (and to your booking), and registering a short-term visitor. What I shared in my update was in relation to the latter (i.e. short-term visitors, not an additional guest), where most of the hotels I've contacted DO NOT allow for and the 2 that do allow for it, have processes that needed to be followed (and some fees, depending on time of visit etc.)

UPDATE: Just in case this might be useful for anyone else making plans for Rio, I've contacted several hotels around Ipanema and Copacabana on their short-term visitor policy (yes, I'm sure what their policy says and what was actually practiced could be completely different 🤣) Out of those, only 2 hotels confirmed short-term visitors are allowed to a guest's room, Hilton and Grand Mercure (subject to registration at counter and possible additional fees).

Hi @Lucky, can I ask whether you were able to bring any GP/visitor to your room during your stay at Miramar?

Thanks @Xclay and @Latbear4blk for the advices. I am fairly a newbie in the LATAM side of the world, so I've sourced for useful tips and advices across various reports here in terms of the general dos and don'ts. I was just hoping to get some recommendations on guest-friendly hotels as I understand this can be tricky, just like in Medellín 😅. @floridarob, ah got it. Thanks for that! From a general google search, seems like a few other hotels are also guest friendly (e.g. Hilton, Sol Ipanema, Arena etc.), so I'll try to narrow down the options from there and email them on their visitor policy.

Ah, I didn't know that. I'm looking for a mix of both, but definitely will be bringing in guests to my room. I'll try and email those hotels to check their policy on this but thanks for the head's up. If anyone knows any recommendations for guest-friendly hotels, please let me know. I generally prefer not to opt for Airbnbs as I like the services that come with a hotel room. But may have to look into this option if hotels don't allow guests over.

Hi all, Can I ask which hotels would you guys recommend in Rio? I have a trip coming up next month but haven't booked a hotel yet as I'm torn between staying near Ipanema or Copacabana. Help please! 😅 This will by my first trip to Rio, so I'm planning to check out the saunas and bars. I know a lot of the bars are around Ipanema, but the saunas seem to be scattered around in terms of location. For now, I'm looking at either Arena Ipanema, Orla Copacabana or Grand Mecure.

Thanks for the input @12is12. Yeah, I will probably be spending the day time checking out some of those attractions and spend the night with guys that I (hopefully) can get connected to with Manny's help. And from some of the reports here, I would probably want to explore Marlowe's and other bars with guys for hire. A question for the SD experts here - for STI prevention medications (Prep, Doxypep), are they available in clinics or pharmacies in general? I do plan to bring my own, but given that I'll be visiting several countries, thought it would help to know in advance. Many thanks for the advices. 🙏

Hey guys, I've been reading a lot of the threads on SD sexcapades (and damn, those hot huge dicks! Lol) I'm planning a trip in August and wanted to ask a few things here, if anyone could help share their knowledge: 1. Manny - based on all the great reviews, I'm planning to use Manny's services for airport pickups/dropoffs and sourcing for guys. Is there a way I should introduce myself or maybe via reference or something? 😅 2. Time - is one week enough to explore SD or is that an overkill? From what I've researched so far, there seems to be plenty of things to do (aside from servicing dicks) even for a whole week. 3. Language - I don't speak Spanish but was able to rely heavily on Google translate while I was in Colombia. Will that work well in SD as well? 😅 Any other tips/recommendations would be welcomed. Thanks guys for all the great reports (and pics!!) shared here. 😬

Hi all, I'm planning a trip later this year to Latin America and was thinking of doing a couple of days in Dominican Republic and Costa Rica. I was wondering if anyone had any recent experiences or could share some input on the saunas, gay sex clubs or guys for hire scene in Costa Rica? Many thanks in advance 😬

I was there twice last week. Had a bit of mixed feelings on both trips. The massage by both guys were surprisingly decent, which I was kind of hoping for but didn't have high expectations on actually getting. On the other hand, the fun that followed was a little of a let down as neither guys could finish. I was told they had customers earlier, so who knows. But I made the best out of it, and the guys helped me to finish. So all in all, I still enjoyed myself. For 1 hour msg - Tip is THB 1000, and it took the Milk Oil (good for b2b from past experience) + Premium Room (which totals to around THB 950).

I can't say for sure, since I only asked about those models I was interested in (most of them performed in the shows). Out of those models, only 2 would go out with guys. As for the other models, some were quite obviously gay and I saw quite a few str8 looking ones sitting with male guests, so maybe the "exclusively go out with women" are in the minority. Best to ask the mamasan if you're interested in any particular model. Haha i was one of those who asked in a different thread, so thought I could just go and check the bar out myself. My act of service for the forum members 🤣 Unfortunately not. I was there for less than a week, so I was bar hopping most nights but never made it to Good Boy 😅

I was in BKK last week for a short trip and checked out some of the bars. Thought I'd share some observations from my visits. The info on off fees, tips and 2nd drinks in some of the bars were told to me by the mamasan at those bars (I only offed one guy on this trip lol). Moonlight 1st Drink: THB 500 Sad to see what has become of Moonlight. I was there twice just to confirm if the vibes on both days are the same (they were). On both occassions, the bar only had a few patrons. There were less than 15 boys on rotation, most being twinks with the exception of maybe 2 twunks (apparently, the most popular guys in the bar) who didn't show much interest in patrons. The shows were the same old, nothing particularly exciting. All in all, the mood in the bar was depressing. The mamasan complained about the lack of asian customers esp during CNY when they expected a lot or customers from China. Atlas 1st drink:THB 500 Boy's drink: THB 500 I was here just once (as this was a short trip). The bar was pretty lively with a few group of patrons. There were 3-4 bodybuilders (off season but still in good shape) formerly from Tawan, a few twinks and a few uncles(?) (neither twink nor bodybuilder/hunks) on rotation (none of them had tags on, but can be off-ed). I had one of my previous off sitting with me and met with the owner, who recognised me from Tawan before. According to the guy who sat with me, he prefers working at Atlas compared to The One as the owner doesn't charge the boys bar fine if they can't make it for the night, a flexibility they don't get at The One. And it's a plus that they are already familiar with the owner. The show had a mix of drag and Tawan's usuals (big cock, bdsm & all, but without the fuck show on the night I was there). The space was big and more comfortable. They had some issues with the sound system at some point in the show, but was fixed right away. The One 1st drink: THB 500 I went here out of curiousity to see how it is going with Atlas now open. I regretted it. The was only 1 off-season bodybuilder (a guy I offed before), a chubby guy, a twink and two other guys (former bodybuilders I guess, but nowhere near that now). There was only 1 other customer (this was around 10.15pm). The annoying doorman is still there, asking me to buy him a drink the moment I sat down (I declined). The bar felt dead. I didn't finish my drink and just left after a few mins. Jupiter 1st drink: THB 600 2nd drink: THB 450 Off fee: THB 500 Boy's tips: min THB 3000 I was here twice. The bar was full on both nights, mainly with Asian customers (maybe around 1/3 of the patron were ladies). The boys and the shows were the Jupiter's usual standard - excellent if it you're into that type of show (I am). Had a good chat with one of the captains, who gave me some useful info on which boys are available and which of them only goes with ladies (spoiler - almost all of the boys doing the sexy performances with the drag queens exclusively go with ladies). I didn't manage to off anyone (the ones I was interested to take were all booked by others) so next trip, I'll probably be there a little earlier. Hotmale 1st drink: THB 500 Off fee: THB 500 Boy's tips: min THB 2000 I was here just once. The boys range from twinks to boy-next-door to twunk. A few of them are offable to me. The show is pretty much the same as before, with cameo from Moonlight's dance crew. Fresh Boys 1st drink: THB 500 2nd drink: THB 300 (i think, my total bill was 1.3k) Off fee: THB 500 Boy's tip: min THB 2500 This was an unexpected visit for me. I've never really had Fresh Boys in mind when checking out bars as I thought they were more catered towards those into twinks based on the last time I was there many years ago (I prefer more muscle on my guys). That said, decided to just give it a shot out of curiosity and ended up taking a guy back lol. They had a huge stable of guys (slightly less than Jupiter but fairly big). The boys are mix of Vietnamese, Cambodians and Thais. There were quite a few twunks with toned bodies, but large number of the boys were twinks or next door type. The show was pretty much the same format as others (drag, sexy dance, big cock etc). The bar was crowded the night I was there. I had a good time with my off. Well spoken handsome, toned Vietnamese guy. He's pretty popular from what I understand and was happy to try out new things to make customer happy. I would definitely take him out again next time.

Hey guys, Can anyone recommend a massage shops (and maybe a masseuse there, too) where I could also get a decent massage aside from fun? 😅 I remember reading Senso (or Ssense?) providing good massage + fun from the reviews but any other recommendations maybe? Thanks in advance 🙏

Yeah, I had a feeling it would be around this range given the increase in ST. In my last trip, guys @ the One will ask for 3000 for ST but I remember paying 2500 for ST to a guy I had from Moonlight.
