Question for the guys:  A business partner has offered me use of his condo at the north tip of Ocean Drive in South Beach, Miami, for four days (Thursday through Sunday) later this month.  Terrific modern building and only a 50 yard walk to the beach. This is a mini vacation for me; absolutely no business appointments.  I intend to invite a companion to accompany me. I'm 45 and not married. Undecided about inviting someone near my age or younger. If you had this opportunity, whom would you invite?  Thanks.

and can get along with. You do not want spend the time, money and effort to go with some one and find out you don't get along.  Remember how you get along with someone for a few hours does not mean you will get along with them for 4 days.  

Above all, only invite a companion whom you've seen several times and with whom you have great communication and some shared likes.  Make sure you two are absolutely clear on the business arrangement and happy about it.  That said, the best way to do it is to take a provider or one of your friends with benefits, but for only 2 of the days.  The other days there are so many people for you to meet and pick up at the Lincoln Mall or Bal Harbour or at the beach bars in Ft Lauderdale and for sure along Ocean Drive and South Beach.  And if you cannot pick up anyone you should still keep the time free and single for if you want to see one or two of the local providers (PM me if you need some tips on that).  When I go I fly in an UTR or a friend with benefits, but I always keep some days free on the front end or back end to fly solo.

Without a doubt I will invite a lady with whom I am comfortable and have spent time with in the past.  Because of a busy work schedule, it's been more than a year since I've had at least a 4-day break.  So a drama free, no hassle companion who likes to have fun and would enjoy exploring the  fine sandy beaches, restaurants, and night life is a priority. I have a repeat session later this week with a younger lady who almost assuredly would be accommodating.  Just wondered if any gentlemen have had a similar extended stay with a companion who would be worth meeting before making my decision.  Thanks for your help.

I recommend Ayden.  She's good looking, very bubbly personality, wide-open menu, she'll stay focused on you (if you want), and is a sun worshipper

Cedar47 knows what he is talking about.  You won't go wrong with her.

I wouldn't take anyone as a full time companion.  Having good chemistry with someone on an hourly basis is night and day from being with them for several days straight.   Chemistry aside...you'll drop some serious coin too.  Long story short it's  just not worth it IMO.  

Loove Ayden. Hard to pin down though. I've done extend travel no prior visit with several much younger gals. With one exception all worked well. Research extensively and back channel same. Go top shelf like Ayden and you'll be glad you did. If you want names, pm me.

Quite true. I usually give them days to themselves. Beach, spa etc. they'll be happier and almost always they'll negotiate a much lower rate. They're on their own usually 9/10am to 4/5pm.  

For those of us who have never done this/that, what kind of coin are we talking? What's that negotiated number for 2 days usually run? Just curious.

In my 5 years of companionship, I've been blessed with a lot of travel dates, domestic and international, ranging from single days to 2 full weeks. While everyone's tolerance is different, I find the "bad fish" rule works pretty well. You know that old saying, fish are like house guests-they both go bad after 3 days. It works for vacations with a new friend as well (new as in new to multiday dates together). That's roughly the length of time I can spend in anyone's presence 24/7-save for bathroom breaks -before I need my own space to recoup. If I've been traveling with you for 6 months or so, then we've likely developed a much deeper level of relating with each other and I can easily enjoy your company all day for days beyond that first 3.

It depends...take the aforementioned Ayden Ashley as an example.  Her 12 hour rate on her website is $6K.  You'd negotiate  for a multi day rate but and she's obviously on the high end price wise, but you can do the math and see it's going to be a tidy sum. And that's before you pay her airfare, dinners, shopping, entertainment, etc

Great advice (and some not so obvious pointers) for all who plan such a trip!

Depends on the relevance of $5K to you. Some, that amount is pocket change and the company is well worth the price. You get someone known, top shelf, honest and hot. Who wants to be on 'vacation' and have a revolving door of hookers at your resort? Maybe some do. But some don't.

Even with your beloved SO. If I ever did something like this, I'd give her time every day to herself rather than lock her down for 48 hours straight. For the vast majority of these trips, we're strangers. We don't know each other's personal habits to the point that we can "live" with that person 24/7. It's hard enough taking trips with our SO's without driving each other crazy LOL. I can't imagine being chained to someone I hardly know 24/7, not just for her sanity but for mine as well. Give me some breathing room woman!

If I were a dude and could afford it, I would totally pick you lol.

but you ruined it with an intelligent and heartfelt post. It's OK, I'll nail your ass another time Not in the biblical sense of course, lol.

but who proof reads hours later on TER? lol.

I'm talking about folks who reach out for the first time and want to see me for, say, 3 or more days. In those cases, requiring a 48 hour commitment is actually cutting them a break, not making an additional demand. This 48 hour commitment means: I promise to stay for a minimum of 48 hours (unless you act like something less than a gentleman, at which point I would leave at any point, though thankfully I'm careful to get a solid sense of anyone I see and this has never happened!), and you promise to financially cover that 48 hours. After that, we have the flexibility to take it as we go, and if I leave early or you leave early because one of us is "full" from the company, you are only financially obligated for those days we were together (rather than all of the days I committed on the calendar to you). Again, I only provide this option for new friends who are jumping in feet first with a first date as an extended multi-day travel date. And, I've never actually had to exercise this option, nor has any friend I've shared time with; we've always successfully really, really enjoyed the date experience and getting to know each other, which I believe is owed, in part, to taking the pressure off by simply having that option there.

I'll go with the one on the right.  I can just tell we have chemistry!

There is nothing on here that you ever said that didn't make perfect sense (maybe I shouldn't have used the double negative--you know what I mean).  You've got your head screwed on straight, young lady.

It always amuses me how some seem to know how to spend others cash better than they do. Awesome.
