When I was in Jaco last February, I didn't see very many hot girls hanging out during the day other than some of the local gift shop girls and grnga surfer girlfriends. However, when the sun went down, tons of chicks spilled through the doorsways into the Beatle Bar. Out of the maybe 100+ chicas I saw, 20, or so, were hotties. Vanessa, who's photos have been all over the VIP photo pages lately, is a prime example. I saw several more just like her. Of course, there were far more hanging out that not quite as attractive, but I would say still in the 7-8 catagory and very pokable. Particulary through my pie-eyes. They must sleep through the day.
Of course, I'm not nearly so veteran as ThirdWorld and many of the other posters here, I've only been to CR 3 times and Jaco twice. But it seems to me that the level of talent at the BB has been roughly that of the DR.
At any rate, I'll be back down in Jaco on Oct. 19 - 21, so I can report first hand for those who are interested.
Just my 2 colonies.
