I'm planning a trip to DR from July 4-9. Not familiar with the island and I'm considering the possibility of heading to Blackbeard's Resort instead of Sosua if I can't find a wingman. My Spanish isn't great...
Both places are definitely different from my experiences as well. However, I started off doing Sosua and Blackbeards until I realized how much better CR is overall. I wish I had started in CR as it was so much better years ago when I first started venturing out in this game. I haven't been back in a few years for this reason in addition to flights being half the price to to San Jose (DR used to be cheap but now crazy high). But will venture back this year most likely as it was my first and want a change.
Sosua is small and an easy walk to everything and expect most of the women walking around being available as well. Which is kinda unique and cool. The DR girls are fun party girls from my experiences and Sosua has that vibe at night most definitely. Sosua, it's all search, negotiate, and experience hit or miss depending on the girl. Main place used to be Classicos, if that's still around believe it is and giant club pick up girls. I always enjoyed it there to some degree. Although I hear the online thing is kicking in nowadays. BB is just easy as can be as the girls are there during the day and leave at some point at night so will want to make sure have something lined up for later in evenings or overnight.
DR is cheaper overall unless you just do the pension in CR. To me, I've found overall better quality for my type of girl I like in CR. And I usually create the party in my room

But definitely more darker girls or Haitian girls available in DR which is a nice bonus to shake things up. It's worth a try I think for something different and if you've never been. But really, the best in my opinion hands down is Colombia or even Panama at Habanos for the sheer number of available girls that are good looking in one place.
Stats, you really don't need a wingman at Sosua as it's a small place and other guys will be at some of the hotels there if you stay at the right ones. Plus, you have the CR under your belt now!! Also, without Spanish you can manage just fine as it's a "touristy" area and they're used to seeing the fellas on picking up on girls there. And the beach isn't like some white sandy beautiful beach in Sosua, you have to venture to other areas for that. But I come from Florida, so maybe that doesn't count.
