" I went on holiday in September going... "
Submitted By: Miss k dear
I went on holiday in September going into October and hardly enjoyed my stay.
<br><br>
The rooms had bugs, the showers were broken & the toilet didn’t work. They had no food for children, there was nothing to do, it was noisy & the floors were slippy,
I would never go back.

" Lepuron beach is one of the worst... "
Submitted By: Ms pa palmer
Lepuron beach is one of the worst resorts I have ever been to, the food was second rate having the same menu every day, the beach was full of local people who were doing unhygienic santry in the sea in the end you did not want to go on the beach, the standard of the rooms was pleasant.

We had know entertainment at night, They had people selling timeshare which unfortunate we did buy and would like to warn people that it is a con to date we have received know paper work or contact numbers from the head office, they have been taking two payments a month out of our account, which was not meant to start until October 04, they started in Aug 04.
<br><br>
These people work from inside the complex and call them selves wastelands or Best Hotels. Please be warned of this.
The pools were not cleaned and were very dirty, we complained about this and was moved within one dayafter complaining so we had a week their and a week in another hotels which was super.
Luperon is classed as a 4 star hotel I would not give it a 2 star
The young boys on the beach pester the young girls who are with their faimlys I would not recommend this resort to any body.

" My wife and I booked the Luperon... "
Submitted By: Mr S Budd
My wife and I booked the Luperon Beach for a 7 night stay on an all inclusive basis.
Initially we found the resort to be pleasant and friendly despite the early downpour.
The apartment was reasonably good size with all the usual amenities and no real problems to mention.
<br>
Plenty of bars and pools around the resort catered for the day time and evening with a nice choice of beach side snack bars through lunch serving basic but fairly good choice of snacks for those not wishing to use the buffet restaurant.
Breakfast and evening meals at the buffet were both of an equally good variety with some varying quality, although the large choice usually found us both satisfied and happy and able to try different meals through the theme nights. The a-la-carte listed were not running except for two and not of any real quality. Buffet food served waiter style with some theme garnish, but still fun with plenty of wine on the beach!
<br>
The beach was typically Caribbean and white sandy heaven with good water sport centre available with some excellent marine life for keen snorkellers and scuba-divers.
<br>
On the not so good side, the whole resort looked slightly 'tired' and in need of a little tlc, the overall polish was lacking for a 4* resort and the night entertainment was brief, (2-3 hours total) but mostly fun.
<br>
The gym facilities were a couple of sets of basic dumbbells, a rickety looking multi-gym and a broken belt-resistance fitness cycle (contradiction in terms!) and a couple of tennis courts. Definitely not 4*!
<br>
In summary the resort catered for our needs but didn’t leave us rushing to get back. No real problems, but no real areas of shining brilliance either, but you get what you pay for. A family rating of 3* max from us, but don’t be put off if you can get a deal. <br><br>

It is a very tired looking resort in dire need of a face lift. Many of the facilities were in a bad state of repair, For example, the gym equipment was beyond repair and the saunas were empty and dirty. The tennis court was like a ploughed field.
The food was appalling, resulting in my wife and I eating out most of the time.
Our first room was in a disgusting state with mould and paint hanging off the ceiling. The shower and air conditioning did not work and the toilet was continually flushing. After complaining bitterly, we were moved to a better condition room where the air conditioning worked most of the time. There was no kettle or tea making facilities and although there was a fridge in the room, it was only stocked after paying $10 for some bottles of soft drinks and water.
There are open drains by the pool, many safety fences were broken or missing and UK health and safety would have a hay day there. Many lights were missing or broken, or loose wires hanging down. The entertainment was a joke.
To top it all the place is a popular resort for the German, French, Spanish, and Canadians. Hence early morning towels on beds were the priority.
The beach was dirty, with cigarette butts everywhere, and as cows roamed freely, you had to watch out which Frisbee you picked up.
We met a couple that had been coming to this resort for ten years, we were assured that this was their last visit to the resort. Everyone British person we spoke to was appalled at the conditions and like us, were complaining to our agents.
Everyone who embarked on trips were bitterly disappointed
and one family paid $250 for a helicopter trip, to find on the day they were due to fly, no-one collected them and when we left the report last week, they were desperately trying to get their money back.
It is the biggest resort I have ever stayed at, and very noisy for this time of year, most nights we were woken by banging doors, young Spanish knocking our door then running away, and our phone ringing in the middle of the night for no apparent reason. There were incidents with drunken French and Spanish teenagers, and the Germans were there usual arrogant selves demanding the bar music be turned down all the time. One German actually pulled the wires out of a speaker while we were there. Say no more.
On the whole, very disappointed, we have been ‘all inclusive’ holidaying for over 10 years and this resort was the worse ever. To complete the holiday, our rep informed us on the day we were leaving that First Choice are about to remove the resort from their brochures.
