what would you choose???

Ok, we are already thinking about our next anniversary trip! (It is always easter week, so it is expensive which is why I plan so early!)

Which would you choose???

A return trip to St. Lucia (same trip as honeymoon) for $5500

A trip to a new resort in Jamaica for about $3500

Both are all inclusive.

Re: what would you choose???

I have to agree, I would go somewhere new! A new experience for your anniversary. How about Aruba, Puerto Rico, Punta Cana?

Re: what would you choose???

I just got back from Jamaica last week and will never every go back! We went there b/c it was cheap and I wish we would have spent the extra money to go some place else!!

P.S we went to Turks and Caicos Last year and it was the most beautiful place in the world. Very laid back and the people were so nice. I felt very safe leaving the resort!

Re: what would you choose???

Back to St. Lucia!!! I'm biased though....going back in Nov!

I've been looking at some of the Palace resorts chain in Mexico as a possible alternate to Sandals in the future. They look pretty nice. All-inclusive like Sandals. Has anyone been to any of these resorts?

Re: what would you choose???

How about a cruise? Or Costa Rica? You can hop around the USVI and St. Martin/St. Marteen and Anguilla.

Re: what would you choose???

We loved Grand Cayman. I would go back there in a heartbeat.

I also hear St. Thomas is beautiful too.

Re: what would you choose???

I vote for someplace new. How about Barbados, Bahamas, Bermuda, St. Thomas, Antigua, Anguilla, Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, Belize, Costa Rica, Aruba, Cancun, Cabo San Lucas, etc....

Re: what would you choose???

I think $5500 is a lot to spend to go to the carribbean...i would go on a more grand trip with that kind of budget. Just my opinion.

Re: what would you choose???

I agree with sonicstef that is expensive for the carribean - for that you could get a suite on celebrity with a butler for the week, or a nice trip to europe. I would look around a bit more -
