I find myself with tickets to anywhere U.S. airways flys and now am looking for a villa in the caribbean somewhere. I have been to many islands but have usually booked all inclusive vacations. I am finding that I might just as well throw the tickets away and book a package. Any information on rentals of villa's would be helpful. I need to be on a white sandy beach with clear water, the rest is secondary... <BR>Brenda

Brenda, <BR> <BR>Us Air flys into N. Eleuthera airport out of Florida and you won't find nicer beaches anywhere in the world than or Eleuthera and Harbour Island. <BR> <BR>There are lots of houses, villas and hotels, B&Bs, and resorts. <BR> <BR>IF you go to the www.where2stay.com board and go to the top of the board and click on islands at the top you can scroll down to The Bahams and find what you are looking for and more. <BR> <BR>If you need any info on the Bahamas, please let me know. <BR> <BR>tweedy

I believe that USAir flies into St. Maarten (SXM), so consider that island. <BR> <BR>The question is: do you need a villa where you walk out your front door onto that beach, or you walk down the hill to that beach? <BR> <BR>After that, what's your budget? <BR> <BR>You switch between all-inclusives(?) and villas, what's your preference. <BR> <BR>More information and we can probably come up with some suggestions.
