I was there in early March and can add some detail:

Prices: Exactly as described. I spent about $50/day on the hobby side.

Girls: International mix. Quality was good.

My favorite spot was a small bar off the main strip.

One tip: Late night you get the best deals.

What was your total spend for the trip, roughly? Trying to budget for mine.

Solid advice. I'd rate my experience similarly.

Adding to this thread with my own experience from February:

The scene has definitely improved since my last visit in 2024.

Biggest change: Prices have gone up about 20%.

Still a great destination. Recommend for both beginners and veterans.

How's the nightlife there compared to the Philippines?

Hmm, I had a different experience. When I went, prices were higher.

Been going there for years and this is accurate. The scene has shifted a bit recently.

With respect, I think this is a bit optimistic. My experience was more mixed.

Thanks for sharing. Did you use the local sites or find girls through referrals?

Not sure I agree about the area recommendation. I found a different neighborhood to be better.
