Main room will have 3 dancers on stage & others mingling throughout. VIP will have 1 dancer on the bar or in the new shadow dance stage & others mingling throughout. It's easy enough to go upstairs & back down depending on who you want to see. (No cost to go upstairs to the VIP bar. Only cost is if you want to go in for a lap dance.)
Anything from $1 and up for dancers on stage or walking around. Like any other club, the more you tip, the more attention you'll get.
Every dancer has his own limits and should be respected. Just play it cool and follow his lead.
Some dancers start around 5 or 6 I think. I've never been there that early. By 10 or 11 when I usually get there it looks like things have been going strong for a while.
 

Gentlemen, thank you for your thoughts and for sharing your own horror stories. A rather strange type of solidarity. Much appreciated, though.
Update:
Yep. definitely been to Santo Domingo and it's richer in options. All-inclusive resorts are not necessarily my type of vacation, so this was purely to please my husband. Oddly, I've been to La Romana, and I've hooked up with people there without any issues.
So I wasn't able to flip the Butler, but as I have always said, it doesn't hurt to ask. I asked him if he flips and he said no, but he had a few names of guys who will gladly help. Something in the back of my mind was telling me that there has to be some kind of covert activity. I'm sure there have been this type of requests in the past.
I was referred to a few local providers, two of which I chose, one Dominican, the other Haitian. They were perfect, affordable, safe and hot as hell. Had a great time last night. As everything in the DR, they were versatile in many ways, one of which was that they also sell merchandise, so I got mugs, t-shirts and other souvenirs from them.
Today I saw the Butler and he did notice my change in mood for the better. He was discreet but inquired about "how was my day".
I rarely come to places where this type of things are more underground than easily accessible. I still feel that it was risky to ask the Butler if he flips and for info, but I'm glad I did. This chain of resorts is gay friendly (yes it's also LBT... friendly, but I'm talking about me) and this is an adults-only resort, so I guess that I'm not the first to make this type of request.
I also decided to tell my in-laws that I need "me time", so I haven't seen them. I'm glad that I was able to please my in-laws, please my husband and now please myself. Now I feel like a real vacation.

Moderator note: this has gone way off topic. If you want to continue to discuss this topic I suggest taking it to the financial sub-forum.
Let’s get back on Red Lobster topic. Thanks!

The Ft. Lauderdale & Tampa Johnsons don't have either. Curtains in the lap dance booths remain open to the public & customers are frequently looking in. Most dancers wear briefs on stage, while a few might wear a jock strap or thong.
