Bottoms was my second favorite club in Manila. The decor here was bright and flashy and like Jools, made it stand out among some of the other Manila bars. The place is relatively large, but nowhere near as large as Jools.

Plenty of gorgeous women here, but not all will accompany you to the hotel. Also, I discovered an attractive pre-op was working there. Be VERY, VERY cafeful in Asia if you know there might be TV/TS's working, as identifying them in Asia is MUCH more difficult than Mexico.

Bottoms has a small stage used for single girl dance shows, but most of the girls line the walls and booths for their customers. I don't recall the swaying shows as in many of the other places, this definitely looked more like a dance club.

I missed a HUGE opportunity with a gorgeous girl here. Often when they're taken, they're taken for the night. Don't hesitate!

It seems like Bottoms is one of the better clubs in Makati. A little bigger than some of the others and the drinks were cheaper than the other two I visited. Pretty girls and they don't hassle you as much as the other places. Overall I would say to skip Makati and go straight to Angles City if girls are your only interest.

Hi, Dakotaone,
I am planning to go to PI for the first time later this year.
Should I be skipping Manila all together? Are the girls cuter/cheaper in Angeles city? Whats the best way to travel to Angeles city? Any hotel recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks!

BKKguru,
Manila is much more expensive both in entertainment, lodging, and the girls also. Manila generally has the better looking, more sophisticated girls.

AC has tons of attractive girls who all are more likely to give you a GFE. Many of the girls from AC are from the provinces and are much more loving and cuddly. Many of the AC girls I had spoken with after working in AC for a while and had gained lots of experience then went to work in Manila where they could make more money.

IMHO,given my choice I'd go to AC over Manila, 100 times to 1.

Either way, you'll have a great time.

Hi, N8guy,
Thanks for the insight.
I guess going to AC is like going to Pattaya! More choice at a cheaper price
I am not sure if you have been to Pattaya....

Do you rent a private taxi to go to AC? Any travel agent you recommend who can make this arragment before I arrive in Manila?

Cheers.

Bkkguru,
You can get a taxi to go to AC. In Manila, there's the "Fly the Bus" service from the Swagman Narra Manila Hotel in Ermita. It's about $17 bucks one-way to AC. And I believe a taxi from the airport is about $40 or so.

Try this link for travel to AC:

I think LBC Mabuhay offers the best air rates consistently to the Philippines. Unless you take the courier route.

Have fun!

Bkkguru,
if your flight arrives late at night the swagman have a free pickup service from the airport which saves having to deal with the ripoff taxi drivers you find at all airports in asia.
You can stay the night at the swagman for about 1500baht, although the rooms are ordinary to say the least but it gives you the chance to go and pick up a girl from the firehouse about ten minutes taxi trip away (just so you can compare them with the AC girls of course) then catch the bus from there the next morning.
Another option i would suggest is negotiate with a taxi to drive you straight to AC you should be able to find one for about 1500 to 2000 baht and it so much more comfortable & convenient than the bus. (You probably would be better off trying this with taxis not at the airport but at shopping centres though, the airport ones are too greedy)
Theres plenty of accomodation in AC so don't bother booking just wonder around an check a few places out till you find what your looking for.
I stayed at the American hotel for about 750baht a night king size bed, huge mirrors on the wall and a great swimming pool about 2 minutes walk to the bars.

Great place, last time visited for a drink, GRO came over, pretty had a couple of goodlooking friends, before I knew it a BBBJ by two of them at the table....blew my load into her mouth and she swallowed, go back for more next time.

If you look to the right of the picture up top you can see the Filling Station next door. It is a good place to find freelancers. The food is not bad either!

Stopped in here on a little whirlwind tour and was much less impressed with the selection than from my visit two years ago. Maybe I visited on an off-night or too late or too early.

It looks a lot different. They've since sectioned off some of the back tables on both sides of the bar to create two quieter rooms where you'll be able to smoke. I'm sure it will also be used by the girls where they can "smoke" with more privacy.

Oh, I also was only charged 80 pesos for my mineral water here. Most bars were charging me 120 pesos.

...and I saw two girls that looked a little suspicious, gender that is.

Excellent bar. The place has staggered booths at different levels. Very easy to get a lot of privacy in the back booths and the girls will let you feel them up and will give you a BJ to warm you up. I saw many guys getting hand jobs and BJ's at the upper level booths. The girls dress in NBA uniforms with nothing but a g-string underneath. Some definite hotties here, although most of them were of the lighter skin variety. The bar is huge and the staff is curteous.

One major change is that the booths raised up in the back have been converted into smoking rooms due to the new ban on smoking in Manila bars. This wipes out about 2/3 of the good seating in the place and makes it look quite narrow. They still have fairly cute girls here but the waitress' are ridiculous about pushing lady drinks, especially considering there are very few customers at all times in Makati.

They have 8-10's. Every quarter they have a best girl contest where all the working girls (from other bars within the same ownership) get on stage and the costomers votes on who has the best talent. They will then post the winners picture in the restroom. If your in the restroom and your interested in any of the girl on the wall just ask momma to make the arrangments.

The following TripReport snippet is taken from 2004/04 Xenono - Xen Returns to Asia With a Romp Through the Philippines

Bottoms
5012 P. Burgos Street
Makati City
Phone: (632) 897-2053 to 58
Cell: 0917-348-0963
Manager: Marimar Perez



This place was recommended from the board, but I was not impressed with either the talent or drink pressure. A fat and older mamasan, who had a very pretty face for an older lady, came over and plopped herself down next to me and wanted a drink shortly after I entered.

I fought off the mamasan and was enjoying the show a bit. The atmosphere there was ok, but nothing that impressed me too much. I eventually found a girl and made out with her in the smoking room for a while, but I decided to head over to Bar Bandido, which was across the street, instead of staying any longer. Bottoms was another typical 3000 peso barfine, 300 peso lady drink place.

Ok I will take from your messages that AC is the place. I want the GFE or not at all. I'm sort of new to this, so where the hell do I put my wallet when I'm with a girl in my hotel? Thanks...

Have-to-see shows at the club: Jools. Note that Jools present 4 - 5 shows in a night and each is different. Getting better is the shows at Stardust. Have-to-see girls at the club: Bottoms. I won't say why, just go.

i liked kojax the best but there were some decent gals at the other three. bottoms has a 'suspenders' show where the ladies are almost topless, bikini bottoms with suspenders covering the tits. but they don't do that show every night so it is hit and miss...i think the beers were 150 - 170. i remember doing a happy hour and paid 50. the bar fines at kojax were 2900 (i do remember that !!!) and the ladies asked for 3000 s/t and 5000 l/t.
