Island Suggestions?

So, I'm researching for where to go next year with in-laws. My husband and I went to Angullla this year and loved it, and we went to Turks and Caicos a few years ago and loved that as well. We need an island that has golf though for my father-in-law. Anguilla does have one golf course, but I think it'd be a few hundred to play one game, and that's just ridiculous.

We don't like touristy areas that are really busy. Really just want to relax on beach, do some fishing, go out for dinner and drinks at night. Any suggestions for any island that have reasonable priced golfing available?

Also, anything similar to Turks and Caicos and Anguilla would be great as well.

Seasons in Exumas Bahamas.

Incredible golf course, beaches similar to Anguilla and T&C.

If you decide on this, even though it's kinda far, you have to day trip to Stocking Island-it's spectacular.
Another stunning beach, about 10 minutes from 4 Seasons is Coco Plum Beach-and there's a restuarant on the beach there.

St Lucia has several golf courses - see here for some of them http://www.destinationcaribbean.net/...p;parentid=179
Fabulous island with lots to do, great food and not overpriced.

ST Lucia has mediocre beaches so it will not live up to the islands you have already enjoyed.
I would suggest Aruba, similar to T&C nice beaches and they have a Robert Trent Jones designed golf course for your father inlaw to enjoy.

Other options:

Quiet:Harbour Island, Eluthera, Vieques PR, Green Turtle Cay.

Very quiet: Petite St. Vincent, Palm Island, North Caicos.

Leave FIL's clubs at home. Your MIL will be very grateful.

altho plenty islands have different themes, id definitely go with
a.st.lucia for a different experience. you can try some gorgeous blacksand beaches and there are plenty really nice places for dinner and drinks, especially in rodneybay village. in rodney bay village you can walk from the beach around plenty dining spots and choose, and spend a whole day relaxing all in one place. there is also golf
or
b. Barbados has picture perfect beaches and is very well developed. you can definitely golf there and anything else you can think of.
