New club opening in Tijuana today

Looks like they are having a big grand opening with lots of porn stars showing up. It appears they may be trying to give Hong Kong a run for their $. I imagine the increased competition will be good for customers. I think it's only two blocks from the border too.

    That's interesting. AFAIK, Deja Vu strictly does strip clubs, and is strict with preventing extras; obviously that won't turn a profit in Tijuana.

    Looks like they will offer full service. It might be crazy good. Could be expensive though. This link has more details.

    Let's meet there on the 10th. It will be frightfully expensive, but what is money for?

    "Indulge every fantasy you’ve ever had with over 500 barely-legal girls every night."

    Sounds like my kind of place.

    "Full service" wow interesting. I imagine this wouldn't be the Tiajuana prices SJG shoots for.

    I'm so confused. Lol. Is it gonna be white girls or latinas? Why so many porn star features? Sounds like they want an expensive showclub in Tijuana but their competition are cheap(in American dollars) whorehouses.

    I love Sarah vandella on a different note.

    I may have to check this place out later today. I'll report back, if I go.

    It looks much closer to the border crossing than Hong Kong. I can't tell whether it's walkable. But, if a free shuttle runs constantly, this could pull a lot of customers from the Zona Roja. This could really shake things up in Tijuana. I look forward to the first reports.

    That is interesting, to say the least. I find it hard to believe that they can round up 500 putas every day. It also sounds like it will be expensive by TJ standards. Can't wait for the first review.
  • gammanu95

    Geez, given the no holds barred rules of TJ, one would almost fantasize that porn stars are on the menu
  • TravelingGolfer

    gammanu, you read my mind. That's one of the reasons I'm tempted to go today. I like those Starr Sisters that will be there.

    As an aside, if anyone is ever in TJ, I recommend this restaurant. Really high end and cheap in American dollars. Home of the Caesar salad I believe. They make it fresh at your table.

    Let's hope that the TJ Deja Vu is better than the US-based chain of DJV clubs that are known for their no-extras policies. I'm often amazed that the US chain makes a profit given the more permissive competition that has emerged in many US cities.

    ^ It sounds like this Deja Vu will be a different animal completely. Looks like extras are a given.

    "Déjà Vu Tijuana is the largest strip club in the world, featuring over 100,000 square feet adult of adult entertainment and luxury “full-service” spa suites. Open 24/7, the Vu is complete with six full liquor bars, a full kitchen, fully nude entertainers, live on-stage sex shows, and a “full-service” gentlemen’s spa complete with over 100 VIP rooms. "

    I like the looks of this place. A high end strip club/whorehouse with a shuttle bus at the us border. I'm willing to pay extra for the proximity to the US border, the safer atmosphere, and presumably the hotter women. We might need to have the winter meet up in San Diego.
  • JamesSD

    I'm guessing the model is white girl extras for a premium price.
  • TravelingGolfer
    8 years ago
    I think James is right. They'll probably charge more for the VIP suites to take the girls to. Surprisingly, my taxi driver said this place will be cheaper than Hong Kong, but I don't buy that. He said it opens today at 4pm. I may check it out James, if you want to meet up later. Feel free to pm me, if you're interested.

    Thanks for the heads-up - Deja Vu seems pretty corporate - I get the feeling they will take a big chunk from the girls.
  • mark94

    They advertise the nearby Pueblo Amigo hotel, which looks modern, has 107 hotel rooms and a casino with 500 slot machines, a cafe, and so on. Sounds like a safe and convenient way to spend the night.
    Also, consider that this could be a huge money maker for the hundreds of porn "stars" in Southern California, depending on work permit requirements.
  • mark94

    Hong Kong and Adelitas have always served the serious monger market. They've never targeted the wider group that resembles Vegas tourists. These are people who want a safe and clean option with some naughtiness. For every serious monger, there are a hundred part-time wannabe mongers who want clean water, safe transport, English speaking venues, and Vegas glitz. I think Hong Kong will continue to serve the serious monger DejaVu will bring in a very different crowd of first time Tijuana tourists.

    Man I need to get over to Tijuana soon, it's not that far from LA.
  • JohnSmith69
    8 years ago
    I'm a serious monger but I much prefer clean water, safe transport, and English speaking. Plus if Janes is right and this place has cute white girls doing everything that the Mexican girls do at Hong Kong, then this sounds like an ideal set up. It could be as close as we'll ever come to having an FKK like club near US borders. If that is what this place turns out to be, then I don't mind paying extra for it.

  • san_jose_guy

    Please keep us posted on this. Usually deja vu screws up strip clubs. And this will likely apply to a strip club brothel as well. Lower quality of delivery, great looking girls, more money. They impose more controls and regulations, and this degrades the quality.

    Seen this first hand in San Francisco. Writing about often in the Spectator Magazine.

    i looked at the satellite view. it is three blocks kinda south of where the taxis are after the mexico pedestrain entry... pubelo amigo casino hotel i think.
  • shailynn

    The Tijuana thing never enticed me too much, main concern was safety (guess I've watched too many drug movies) plus west coast is not convienent for me.

    If this is what I am dreaming it would be like, I would certainly go out of my way to do this.

    I will keep a close eye on this place and like others can't wait to read some solid reviews in a month or so when the dust settles and things calm down.
  • TravelingGolfer

    Shailynn, I was just like you. Terrified to go down there. After a few trips, no worries at all. It's just every day folks living their life. Haven't witnessed any violence or felt uncomfortable at all. I've only been there during daylight hours and just stuck to the border, Hong Kong & Adelitas, and Avenue Revolucion. In those areas, and taking taxis, no worries whatsoever. Knowing a little Spanish does help. Hong Kong is pretty posh and well lit. So, is the hotel. Nothing seedy about it, as far as it being dangerous. Everyone is happy to get your business there, so as long as you treat people decently with respect, you should be golden. The only concern I've had is with some of the crappy taxis with no seatbelts. They have newer taxis in better condition though, so you can stick to those. I'll try to gather Intel today and post the details tonight or tomorrow. Since it's grand opening though, it may not be reflective of what the club will be like on a normal basis, once things settle down. Regardless, I'll report on what I observe today.
  • JamesSD

    The main tourist areas of TJ are safe. The cartels want to keep the money flowing, so they aren't interested in making things too rough.

    I don't advocate for wandering around looking for drugs or streetwalkers, and taking a taxi is a good plan. I mean, there's parts of TJ I wouldn't go to at night, and parts of San Diego I avoid entirely too.

    Looking forward to your report, TravelingGolfer.
    I find the claim of 500 young women dubious. I think it's more like 100. That's how many there are at Baby Dolls.

    It would be awesome to have a TUSCL meetup there. Gentlemen, get your passports ready!
  • TravelingGolfer
    8 years ago
    First update: I'm here and the club is all decorated for the opening. It's big, nice, 2 levels, some tv's showing sports. Only one problem. There are about 100 employees and 1 customer, with no girls on stage yet. Guess who the one customer is? Yep.

    So, I walked next door to the casino and hotel, which is also nice. Getting a bite to eat in the courtyard restaurant of the hotel and then heading back over. So far, I saw one white dancer in street clothes at the club first and now at the hotel. Think she might be a porn star. Update to follow later.

    Let us know pricing please

    Cover, drinks, lap dances, VIP, etc

    I think they all want dollars not pesos, so I guess we don't have to find a place to exchange currency.

    And here I am a couple thousand miles away. Oh well, maybe I can add it to my bucket list for another day.

    I'm also interested in pricing, dancer quality, etc.
  • shailynn
    8 years ago
    TravelingGolfer - can't wait to hear your complete report.

    Yeah you make some good points about Tijuana. I say I'm scared but then I'm driving on 8 Mile Road in Detroit at 2AM in a Mercedes, not sure if my choice or Tijuana is more dicey?!?!?!
  • Papi_Chulo
    8 years ago
    Shailynn - Hong Kong has hundreds of reviews & I don't recall anyone having any issues - similar to when one takes certain common sense precautions when visiting certain US clubs - read some Hong Kong reviews and I'd think you'll really wanna go down
  • TravelingGolfer
    8 years ago
    Funny Shailynn. Yeah 8 mile at 2am very well could be dicier. So, I bailed early, but I do have some info, including pricing. They weren't getting started until 7 or 8 and I didn't feel like waiting around a lot longer.

    I saw about 20 girls hanging out and spoke to a Caucasian Deja Vu manager, who appeared to be from the U.S. and just there for the opening. He said there were over 100 girls in the dressing room getting ready for when they kicked off the opening later.

    All of the girls I saw were very pretty. Hong Kong quality and maybe even better. All 8's and up. All Latina, but didn't see the women in the locker room.

    Pricing: guy told me no cover charge ever, but I did see cash registers by the door, so not sure. He said beers were about $3, lap dances were $15 for one song, and VIP private rooms cost $25 for 30 minutes (house fee) plus whatever you negotiate with the dancer for her services. Sounds like the whole menu is available in those VIP rooms. Pricing sounds very similar to Hong Kong, but I suppose it could vary depending on the girl. If you get a porn star visiting from SoCal, who is willing to play, I imagine she'll be charging top dollar. No idea what the Latina girls will charge, but my guess is it will be close to Hong Kong pricing, maybe slightly higher.

    Last thing. If you go, on the way back, definitely use the new border crossing to the west, to get back into the U.S. It will save you an hour or two wait getting back.

    Okay, look forward to reading future reviews from people who actually visit while the club is open!

    Oh, the club is located in this pueblo, which is kind of like an outdoor shopping mall, with stores and restaurants. It's very safe to walk around there. Not all of the store fronts are occupied, but they are doing some construction and it looks like they may be occupied soon, once the club starts bringing in tourists. There is even a big, nice store, similar to a Super Walmart, with a huge grocery section, including fresh baked goods. Surprised to see a club of this sort surrounded by an outdoor shopping mall. Definitely unique.

  • TravelingGolfer
    8 years ago
    SdFan: Yeah, think they are confused tonight, so can't tell you for sure. The guy asked if I was on VIP reservation list and I said no, but taxi driver told me about it and saw advertisement on website. He said I could get in, but asked me to go wait at the hotel for a while and come back, because they weren't open just yet. Guess I was just walking in and inspecting the place before they even opened to the public. So, not sure what to tell you. Think they'd let you in because it seems slow tonight, but don't know that for sure.
  • JamesSD

    I imagine they want a full club. I'd also imagine someone showing up at 7 or 8 would get in easier than trying to roll in at midnight.

    I'm reading this thread and I'm thinking its NOT Adelitas and Hong Kong who have to be worried- I think the Nevada "Bordello" model (which has already taken a big hit) is going to find they are seriously overpriced even if Deja Vu is more pricey than Hong Kong. Face it, who wants to take a cab to the middle of the goddamn desert to be fleeced by a clip joint with all the ambience of your uncle's basement in decorated in classic 1970s trailerpark when you have a place that is more accessible to a party atmosphere and closer to Southern California in general? Deja Vu just bitch slapped Dennis Hoff and made the whole LPIN brothel scene that much more overpriced and irrelevant.

    I think that's a very keen observation Hugh. I think you're right. Love your quote "Deja Vu just bitch slapped Dennis Hoff".

    True mongers with passports (and the financial means) will head to TJ. Not even sure if the financial means will count, but I'm just figuring in airline prices. Those who don't know or don't have passports will head to NV.

    For a lot of mongers , it's also important to have a deniability factor. It sounds like there are shops, restaurants, and other nightclubs in the general area. "Honey, me and guys are going to Tijuana for a weekend because the booze and food is cheap. We got a great deal at this nice hotel." Take a few photos having fun in a sports bar, buy a nice gift for the significant other, and hope no questions are asked.

    Hell Mark, Who's to say that you couldn't use golfing with the boys in Palm Springs or some other near San Diego diversion as an Alibi? Or leave the Wife and the Kids at Sea World when you are going to a- Poker tournament .

    Plausible Deniability is a good thing.

    If this as advertised, Deja Vu Tijuana will be unique in the world. Even better than the FKKs, which have high admission fees ($100 or more) and no strippers. Even better than Hong Kong Club where you need to mess with paying for a room. Even better than Thailand, where you need to pay a bar fine and go offsite.

  • san_jose_guy

    Thanks for the update justme62.

    Usually Deja Vu imposes rules. So probably they will clamp down on the front room GFE. Then doing it that way, the back room and hotel room sex will be more likely to be non-GFE.

    What do you think? This is basically what they did in San Francisco. And some accounts suggest that this is what they did at the Chicken Ranch brothel in Pahrump.

    Mostly Deja Vu is a think tank. The've analyzed how strip clubs work, and now also brothels too. And then they've figured out how to maximize the house proceeds.

    Thanks for the update.

    The vu in SD is an awful club. I'm pretty sure it relies solely on tourists and feature dancers.

    11pm. left hongkong and arrived at an active open deja vu tijuana. guess at least over a hundred customers in the main showroom. the manager showed me around. in the spa area is 47 rooms. it's not a hotel. you can rent the rooms a half hour of time $25. and have a central restrooms with showers you can utilize with the girl. each room has a bed in it with fresh linen. Nice selection of girls. it is going to be good here. I look at it as déjà vu and Hong Kong can complement each other as a destination for us mongers.
