I'm planning a trip to DR  

There are several others, but I am probably not most knowledgeable person where it comes to the DR.

are these two places in Punta Cana or somewhere else ?

Is where you want to go BTW this coming from a CR vet only.  

I am planning a return trip to Santo Domingo in DR and even though I have some experience I could use some advice.  The $400-$500 overnight is not unreasonable if you really want a girl for 24 hours.  Problem for me is (has been) choosing from photos and if the girl is not really what I want I am still stuck with her for that time; it's way too long.  I have brought girls back to my hotel room; similar problem -- getting rid of them after a couple of hours.  This trip I want to visit an upscale whorehouse where I can spend a couple of hours and then LEAVE.  If I really like a girl I can always negotiate an overnight.  I know of strip clubs like Foxys, but really I don't need a lap dance or loud music, I just want to walk in, pick a girl, have sex, and leave.  My Spanish is good enough, upscale is best.  I have heard 'ask a taxi driver' and might try that, but I would welcome other useful suggestions.

There are loads of places you can go for a couple of hours and none of the legit places will run you even close to a hundred bucks, much less $4-500.  

Thanks for your reply.  I am not claiming huge experience.  I am aware there are loads of places, but I'm afraid that doesn't tell me exactly where to go.  Would you be kind enough to name a few places to try?  Thanks.

but it will have to be by PM as TER rules forbid me from posting the link publicly.

are you two seriously complaining about $500 for a day!?! SMH... remember some perspective, thats an hour at home, so $500 for a full day would be an absolute steal. Thats $20/hr.... don't be a cheap ass.

and for the record, overpaying when in Latin America does NOT get you better service, it gets you worse service as you are considered too "estupido" to deserve her best. The logic is, if you are too stupid to negotiate a fair price, then as a stupid gringo you are too stupid to complain when you get bad service too. Don't shoot the messenger, I don't make the rules, but I've spent a LOT of time in Latin America, and that's just the way things are down there.

Yes 500 for a full day is really cheap compared to prices in the USA, but if the going rate there is 100 or 200, then 500 is expensive there.

I would be grateful if this discussion could head back to where it started: useful suggestions for hobbying in Santo Domingo, NOT beach resorts.  Let's agree on a price of $100 for a couple of hours.  Yes you can get it for less, but that is not the point.  You can call a service and have a girl delivered to your hotel; you can go to a strip club and either take a girl out to a hotel or perhaps get a room on-site; you can ask a taxi driver to take you to a 'casa de chicas'.  Great.  I am primarily interested in finding a quieter place where I can enjoy a girl for a couple of hours and LEAVE.  Thanks.
