Summer is coming to an end and it is time to start thinking about booking the families winter vacation. We have been to Aruba and St. Thomas USVI several times along with the Bahamas and Jamaica once each. The family goes (wife and 2 kids 14 and 13) and we are looking for a new destination in the Caribbean. We have enjoyed Aruba the most. Was wondering what other folks thoughts were on the subject and if there are any suggestions. Thanks

Have you stayed at Atlantis in the Bahamas? That place has so many things to do for all ages. Pricey, but worth it.

St. Kits is pretty nice, decent diving...
We go to Aruba every year now, stay at the Divi Divi... good diving, nice people, clean place.
I've considered Turks, heard that it is a great place as well

Yes we did stay at Atlantis, fantastic for the kids but a little hectic for the wife and I.

I also have stayed at the Divi Divi and really like it there.

Thanks for the suggestions, I will start checking them out

Went to Antigua two winters ago. VERY relaxing. Laid on the beach for a week straight. Jolly Harbour condos were great.

We stayed at the Divi Divi in Feb. of 2000, what a great time/island! Planning on going back in Feb. of 2005, can't wait!

We went to Cozumel this past February... It was awesome. Our kids enjoyed themselves and we found it to be a really relaxing vacation.

Excellent diving! Its definatly NOT a touristy kinda place.
Prices are very reasonable too. End of November is the migration of the Whale Sharks.

I agree, those little brick oven pizzas from the Divi Divi were fantastic.

 

[Soo Sassy]

I'm thinkin' I may be leaving for the Divi a little sooner than planned just for pizza!

 

[waxonwaxoff]

The pizza's at that bar are great, so are the pannini's. I make it a goal to out drink and eat the establishment so I know I'm getting my money's worth. And getting back from the Alahambra casino in time for last call at the pizza bar is the best!
Seriously, I really like that island

 

[surfergirlck]
