Cha Night Club Santo Domingo (Video)

Looks like Mardi Gras in New Orleans.
This the venue for next DR1 party?

For a while there watching Mr. Lu's Video, it really felt like Haoman 17 in Tel Aviv!!!

Something for everyone I see like Dominican Chippendales in drag. I really MUST commend Mr. Lu on his versatility: one minute he's covering RHM's University lecture and now this. Clearly a videographer with many interests .

Wow, a little too alternative and freaky for my tastes. But if that is what you are into then this would definitely be the place for you. Props to Mr. Lu and Ken for another quality video production.

its only people in body paint dancing and fire eating, nothing to be frightened of....ive seen people in less clothes in cirque du soleil.

chance would be a fine thing of getting touched up in a gay club - ive been trying for years

Wow!

I guess it would be too much to hope for a heterosexual club like that in Santo Domingo!!

Oh well, I am sure my girlfriend would get a good giggle if I took her to CHA....

its difficult keep straight people out of them at home - you cant stop straight people these days (equal opportunities)
There has been a lot of discussion about such matters in the uk where straight people often outnumber the gay people in gay clubs lol

nice job on showing a side of Santo Domingo. it is real

I am comfortable enough with my masculinity to check it out once or twice...but Id save most of my nights for the same type of enviroment loaded with hot dominicanas though!!!!

cant wait to see the next vid

bad bad bob

JD,
Sorry, but it's definitely a gay place, check the link at end of the video CHA Club Santo Domingo

What's the name of the last song in this video ??

Elvis, here is the track listing:

1) I know you want me (Calle Ocho) - Pitbull
2) Oye Como Va - Filip Le Frick Remix
3) Rock the Boat - Sugar Cube Inc Remix
4) Esto es Porno - Hinojosa & Zambrano

Thanks to everyone for all their comments. The night was great! Ken Harrington helped set this all up and aside from being an adventure it was just good to see a place like this in SD. After speaking with Chachita off camera she explained that the community has been very receptive to her club. She has never had any problems with police and the surrounding residents have never had a qualm with the establishment. In a sense its good to live in SD and know that, at least, to a certain degree alternative lifestyles are "accepted" here.

On a seperate note I will be honest and say that this is the best club in SD, by far. Yes, if you are not into gay clubs, or a bit weary of the subject matter, entering such a place might make you uncomfortable, but aside from that, from a very objective point of view, the club rocks. The DJ was incredible! The sound was excellent. The club is small, but perfect for a great party. The energy was hype. And the clientele was into it. I mean we left at 3:30am and there was still a line to get in. By about 2:30am things were getting crazy inside to the point where no one could fit.

Cha is the only "Miami" style club in SD and the only club in the city where people go to dance. To really dance. Most clubs in SD are built on a public that goes to be seen so they buy their one drink or one bottle, stand around, with a stupid look on their faces, so they can tell that story on Mondays at work/school. Like a girl told me inside the club, "Dance how you want to dance. No one is looking. It's Cha, everyone is weird, but that's OK."

As per the video we will try to keep bringing you new and exciting content from around Santo Domingo and the DR.

Enjoy,



Mr. Lu

seems like the prefect place for a straight man to get some hot gay action on the side.

What an unfortunate and ignorant comment. Sad. Shows your true character AZB. I'd ask the Mods to delete this and other comments of this nature.

take it easy, it was a joke. In any-case, it was not directed towards you.

It's kinda sad that this is the case, that you consider it the best club in Santo Doming. Not to discredit the gays, on the contrary - I agree with you that the majority of clubs are people hanging around trying to be seen, ect. What I am trying to say I guess, is that its too bad that practically the only club in the city where people go out to dance, really have a good time, be themselves ect. is a gay bar. The rest of the clubs need an injection of openmindedness. There are a couple out there, but thats it. Again, this is not a criticism of the bar, but rather the bar scene in general.

how long has this place been open for? ive driven up and down the Malecon and cant figure how i missed this? looks like a cool place. Good posts Lu, keep up the video work and your reports of hot spots and or areas of interests in la capital!

I know it wasn't directed at me. But that doesn't matter. I just didn't find it funny and knowing you as a person of character, would have expected more. That's all. No harm. Everyone can go back to what they were doing.

The place has been open four about four years. It is right next to El Vesuvio Malecon. It is a small club, but it gets packed. At first its easy to miss, if you are not looking for it, but once you know where it is you'll say "how could I have missed this?"
