Been going there for years and this is accurate. The scene has stayed consistent recently.

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

Adding to this thread with my own experience from 3 weeks ago:

The scene has definitely improved since my last visit in 2023.

Biggest change: More competition means better service.

Still a great destination. One of my top 3 worldwide.

Not sure I agree about the area recommendation. I found downtown to be better.

Great report! Quick question — how was the wifi at your hotel?

Agreed on all points. One thing I'd add — make sure to get a local SIM.

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

Adding to this thread with my own experience from 3 weeks ago:

Things are much the same as always since my last visit in pre-COVID.

Biggest change: More girls working online now.

Still a great destination. 8/10 from me.

Any restaurants or bars you'd recommend for hanging out during the day?
