Has anyone been to Safety & Police recently? Looking for the latest intel.
Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- New venues worth checking out
I was there in 2024 and had a great time. Wondering if things have changed.
Any recent trip reports would be helpful.
Cheers

Word of caution — some online profiles are fake. Other than that, great destination.

I was there in February and prices were about average. Spent about $100/day all-in.
My tip: avoid weekends.

Good info. Going during the week is much better — less crowded and better prices.

Word of caution — watch out for taxi scams at the airport. Other than that, great destination.

Been there 8 times now. Still one of my top destinations. The consistency is what keeps me coming back.
