Alex-
I gotta think that you missed the main reason for going to Jaco, which is the nightlife. In the daytime, everyone is resting from staying up all nite partying.
Although I don't really go to the BB anymore, as far as them being slow, I think there is some general trend going on. My friends that have three restaurants say biz has been way off, not just seasonally off. Also at the beginning of Dec., the Monkey and the Jungle were completely dead on a Friday night. We were the only couple dancing at the Monkey at 1:30am, and that was alcohol induced.
Two other real estate developers also said that their activity has tanked this year. So, altho there are tons of new condos being built, my guess is that they are being picked up by speculators, who may find themselves holding onto them for awhile and not realizing the incredible profits that had been going on. Of course, this is just my observation.
