Cocal still the place to stay in Jaco? Been over 2 years since I was there and spent some time in Crocs casino last time I was there. Noticed quite a few ladies hanging in the casino, the night I was there. I hear they typically asking $150 now? That’s crazy town. Anyway, thanks for the help.

Casino is air conditioned so assume thats why the girls hang out there not to mention a working girl can smell the flowing money a mile away.

If they’re asking $150, that’s ridiculous, but I’m sure that’s what they’re asking for. At prices like that, why bother? Mexico and Colombia, here I come.

Info from other posts is that Crocs has changed policy and you are no longer allowed to bring chicas back to your room if staying there.

Mango Mar (next to Cocal) has apparently been sold and is cancelling all future reservations. No info on new owners plans, probable remodel. No info on future chica policy.

Hotel Poseidon has also been sold and changed the name to Trident. Report that they have raised rates, but no definitive info I have read on chica policy.

Jaco is losing chica friendly options. Cocal and the Vista Mar condos remain as the best options.

Quick note. The Palms next to Crocs is chica friendly. A buddy and I rented a condo there via VRBO. No charge or problem bringing ladies back to the condo. Security holds their ID. Had girls in and out all hours, day and night.

As a bonus, registered guests of The Palms have access to everything at Crocs. Crocs is way over-priced for EVERYTHING. However, it is convenient to the condo. When beer ran out for a nice young lady staying the night, it was nice to be able to walk next door and buy a couple overpriced cans of silver.

Palms condos get a bit pricey, but with two guys splitting the bill. The balcony view is unbeatable. We kicked back for hours with our guests on that balcony.

For cheap, the Lime hotel - off the beaten path in Jaco, is also chica friendly.

Anyone know if the new Crocs policy also applies to the condos? I've rented condos there before quite reasonably. There are a couple with way better than room rate prices currently listed on VRBO. In 2015 and 2016 - I had no trouble bringing girls up to the condo floors.

I suppose I can call the hotel before renting a condo at Crocs.

I love the bar at the COCAL and although it is high I like to have a couple of drinks there

Maybe you could put a couple of pillows or a phone book on your barstool so you could reach your drink.

I stayed at one of the Crocs condo units VRBO during a Hurricane Evacuation here in Hilton Head two Summers ago. I had one main Colombian friend who stayed with me and registered so no problems with her. She went home for a few hours a couple times and I pulled up some Ticas hanging around Crocs bar with again no problem. I also rolled down to Frog Bar, brought another back had a few drinks at bar and again no problem. Crocs is definitely geared towards CR families so I think if you are low key about it you are less likely to have problems. They definitely don't want you rolling multiple Ticas out to the pool for a party out there while CR families are enjoying the day.

Nice info about the Palms next door being guest friendly. They have very nice units and the access to Crocs pool is nice. We normally stay at Vista Mar but one of our non mongering friends always stays at Crocs. We always go down and spend the day at the Crocs pool for the $30 day fee which is well worth IMO since the $30 goes towards bar tab and we can all generally eat and drink $30 worth to enjoy a day at their nice pool. Vista Mar pool is decent but I would not hop into the Cocal Pool with an Ebola Outbreak outfit on

San Jose is still a bargain. Plus great cigars at Havana Humidor Room

While in Jaco...

Is Cocal the only real hunting ground or are there others that are frequented by ladies?

Other bar? Location?

Until about midnight the Cocal is about it. As it gets later, the clubs in town will start to get busy. Le Loft is just outside of the Cocal entrance and is probably the only one I would go to that late at night without a taxi.

I've heard good reports about a club called the Wave but have never been myself.
