TQ, I have been to Panama on three differenet occasions, what other places can you recommend. Personally I preferr Panama over CR, but haven't really spent much time in CR to make a fair comparision.

If you like freelancers, check out Habano's Cigar Bar across the street from the Marriott downtown. Also La Bodeguita and the casino at the Veneto Hotel. All these are evening places, and La Bodeguita gets going particularly late, about 11:00 PM or midnight. The going rate is around $100 for an hour or two for a hottie. Less attractive women will run less, and a Playboy Centerfold type may ask and receive more -- as far as price goes though, it can vary a lot depending both on the particular woman, your negotiating ability, and whether there's any chemistry.
If you like strip clubs, Miami Club, close to Golden Time in El Dorado, is your best choice if you want to get laid and don't want to drop an arm and a leg. The cost is about $90 to $100 for about an hour. If you're looking for drop dead beautiful women, comparable to Golden Time in a strip club environment, and either don't mind paying U.S. prices or just want to enjoy the show, I'd recommend Le Palace and Elite downtown. Elite has the better shows, and Le Palace according to some (I'd disagree) has the better looking women. You'll have to buy your date about $150 worth of liquor, then pay her around $200 or $300, for anywhere from an hour to mid-afternoon the next day. A better idea is to negotiate something in the club for the next day, in which case you might get away paying $100 to $150. If you do this in Elite be careful that management doesn't find out you're trying to arrange something on the side -- they have been known to fire the women and have them deported back to Colombia when they find out.
