Adding my experience: scene has evolved since pre-COVID. Biggest change: some old spots closed.

First time was overwhelming but exciting. Second time was 10x smoother. Experience makes all the difference.

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

How long did it take to feel comfortable and find the good spots?

I was there in last month and prices were about average. Spent about $150/day all-in.
My tip: try the local spots away from tourists.
