I cashed in 30,000 AAadvantage miles and decided on a trip to Panama. I had visited once before(Feb 2005)and had a great time staying at the Radission DeCapaolis(sp). This time I stayed at the VENETO Hotel. Joined WYNDOM rewards and got a room rate of $105 plus tax(10%). I called the hotel direct and a recieved a quote of $208 a night. Flight was delayed and didn't get out of the airport until 10:30pm. Paid $28 for the 30 minute ride into town. Pulled into the VENETO and it looked like the GOLDEN NUGGETT in Las Vegas with all the lights. Quick check-in and a room on the 19th floor. King size bed with great linens and 42" led TV. Nice work desk for my laptop which I leave out for the full 5 nights. Call the front desk and get my code for the free wireless and I am hooked up for the full stay. Take a shower and down to second floor casino. Wow What a bar that must have been 40 yards long and completly packed. Took a while to get a rum/coke for $4.50 but the male bartender(3 at the bar) poured up a big drink with plenty of rum. A live band was playing at the stage(usually 2 or so bands per night) casino starts to fill about 10 pm every night and this night it was 11:30. Talked with a few Colombianas in the casino and it was packed with pros and non pros. I wanted to go to HABANOS so I declined any offers. Got a taxi out front and $5 for the 5 block ride to HABANOS. Taxi driver told me I was making a very big mistake going to HABANOS and proceeded to hype up GOLDEN TIME, LE PALACE, AND ELITE where you can drink $30 all night. I had to insist and finally we got there. Very dark compared to HDR in San Jose and much smaller in size. Very nice selection of ladies there from all over Colombia. Every chica I talked with had enhancenments for a while and then I met Ale from Periera. Dressed very nice in white shorts and a nice blouse. struck a quick deal when I saw how pretty she was. left HABANOS and plenty of taxi out front talking $8 back to VENETO. We walked one block to BEIURET resturant and caught a $2 taxi. It's great to arrive at the VENETO with all the lights and up the esclator to the second floor casino. Grabbed a drink and then we hit the 19th floor. Man what a body and she was very sweet.

I've found problems with cbj and limited kissing with HABANOS girls. I assume you did better here

nice view from the pool deck , i remember that spot.

Hunterman, had to shell out $150 which is the most I have paid but I don't regret it even though I know it is too much.

I stayed at the veneto for the carnival festival week. The most i paid was 80 for two girls.If you wait til 2am the girls will take anything. Or you can go to the ho house its fifteen bucks for twenty min. I forgot the name but all the
crooked cab drivers know were it is.

Thanks for the info Hankkh.
