Planning a bachelor party for sometime in Aug-Oct '05, and just wanted to poll for some ideas where to go for a 2-3 night trip. The requisites are:

- Gambling
- Golf
- Warmth
- Resort Hotel
- Accomodating to east and west coasters

Ok, I know Vegas covers all these, but was hoping for something different. I realize the Caribbean is usually inconvenient and pricier for the west coasters (although it's mostly east folk), and it's hurricane season, but just thought i'd try and ask around!

Thanks..

If you could find a hotel in Cancun with a casino.... that could be a good place....

Or... the Atlantis in the Bahamas...

Or..the Wyndham Nassau in Nassau, Bahamas (they have an all inclusive option, the Crystal Palace Casino is located right in the hotel, and is near an 18- hole PGA-approved golf course).

Another option maybe the Breezes Bahamas (all inclusive, with a younger crowd, but with no under the age of 18 allowed. There is no casino, but it is within walking distance to the Wyndham)

I hope this helps.

My vote is also Nassau its a great place for fun , gambling, warmth and they have some very reasonable hotels and resort. A must to visit is Atlantis... won $4000 on a 75 cent pull on a quarter machine. Just Luck!

Puerto Rico has golf, gambling and resort hotels.
The one that comes to mind is the Hyatt Dorado beach.(never been) I stayed in San Juan, but this is where golfer friends of mine were going. It is a direct flight for the east coasters (most big cities.)
The other one is probably Cancun. It is a party town and probably convenient for both sides to meet. The Atlantis is a great fun place, but there are alot of families there. Not to say you can't find some trouble or fun there. I just saw a lot of families there when I was there.
Isn't there also a big golf course in Tobago? I was looking into the Hilton there and there was talk about some big PGA golf course there. Don't know if there is any night-life or gambling.
In the states, if you are looking at east coast, there is Myrtle beach/ Kiawah island area. I think Myrtle is more of a party area. You can probably suit all of your needs there. Or to avoid Hurricanes all together, go west to Arizona/California. Great golf out there. Tahoe should have all of their snow melted by August!
