Returned from 6 days in Cali. Solid experience.

Accommodation:
Serviced apartment near the main area. $61/night. Good location, basic amenities.

Scene:
Quieter than I hoped but still good. Prices were in line with forum reports.

Quality:
Varied — some great, some average. Had 9 encounters total.

Logistics:
Rented a motorbike for flexibility. Food was cheap and delicious.

Safety:
Felt safe throughout.

Overall: 8.5/10. Already planning next trip.

Happy to answer any questions.

I was there in January and prices were exactly as described. Spent about $150/day all-in.

My tip: try the local spots away from tourists.

Been there 5 times now. Still one of my top destinations. The friendly atmosphere is what keeps me coming back.

Word of caution — some online profiles are fake. Other than that, great destination.

Good info. Going during the week is much better — less crowded and better prices.

Adding my experience: scene has evolved since pre-COVID. Biggest change: some old spots closed.
