Caribbean Islands
 
8 adults looking for trip to islands - which would be best for all inclusive, good beach, good food, more than hotel room, golf included - reasonable cost?

Not sure what a "reasonable cost" is for you.

Might be more specific on things as there are lots of people here that can help you. Also, have you run a search at all on some places that may be of interest? That would help a lot.

We are looking at all inclusive on Jamaica, St. Martin, St. Thomas or Dominican Republic. Would like entire trip (including air) to be around $4,000 per couple. Flying from Dayton, OH

Are we talking for a week ? What is the time frame & when ?

The only advice I can give you is look for a 5 star hotel; because 5 star in North America and 5 stars in the Caribbean; especially DR, Mexico and Jamaica is not the same standards! I would suggest look in Punta Cana; beautiful beaches at a reasonable price. Jus make sure to check out tripadvisor before you book!!

We are going for 7 nights - June 2-9 - most of us are in our 50's and 2 of us turn the big 60 in May. We like the beach, pool, relaxing, boat trips, golf, good food, nice rooms (would like separate living area - or big room).

The golf part may be difficult. I'd probably start w/Puerto Rico though. Bermuda perhaps. Coming from Dayton you'll have to connect also so I would stick w/those places that are more easily accessible.

Depending on what part of Dayton you reside in, you may also want to consider just driving to Cincinnati. More direct flights & you may save time in the grand scheme of things. I used to reside in Dayton and I know it is not that easy to get anywhere from there...
