First of all, the hotels have all the basic all-inclusive activities. Boating, diving, windsurfing, horseback riding, discos, etc. There are tours of the jeep safari type and trips to Puerto Plata and a Casino tour. You can enjoy all these but also try to get out of the hotel environment and enjoy the town of Luperon. The people are very friendly and there are many good bars and restaurants: The Yola, Darios (typical Dominican cuisine), the one across from Darios (Dominican cuisine) whose name I forget, or walk up Duarte (main street) and go to La Morena's (Hotel de las tres hermanas), ask anyone and they will direct you, and ask her to prepare one of her special dinners and admire her kitchen garden while she cooks. She's a wonderful lady whose heart is big and an excellent Dominican cook. You'll get a real "comida typica" from her. Also, visit La Isabela park by taxi (first permanent European settlement in the Americas) straight down the road from the hotel gate. Go on the sailing trip to Cambiaso - beautiful beach and a great day's adventure. Remember, Luperon is safe and the people are friendly. Have a great time.

hi you wanted to know about luperon well last year i went there 3 times as my boyfriend live there in luperon i stayed twice at luperon beach resort and once out of the complex.
where are you staying if you are staying actually in luperon beach resort you are very lucky and i can guarentee that you will have a holiday that you will never forget everything about the place is amazing from the food to the staff they make it a trip to remember.
if you can take a trip down to the marina you can walk there from the hotel it only takes about 30mins if you are lucky you will meet people there who have there own boats and the majority of the time they ask you if you would like to join them for the day and yes it is perfectly safe. do not go on any of the tour operators excurtions as they add about ?100 on each one ( i used to be a travel agent) if you want to go on excutions ask at the marina they are a quarter of the price. also do not buy pressys from the hotel (ie) booze or cigs they are alot cheeper in luperon also do not use the phone in the hotel go to the money exchange place in luperon town fraction of the price also exchange money there better exchange rate if you want to know anything else please dont hesitate to contact me on my email i might see you there i am going for 1 month on feb 20th by for now karla green
