Need help chooising an island to go to from NYC.

We want to take a 4-5 day trip in May/June and can't figure out where to go. We do have a few requests - any help would be appreciated!
1. We want a non-stop flight from any NYC airport
2. Golf
3. Beach
We are already looking at Puerto Rico & Bermuda. TIA!

Barbados on American out of JFK - non-stop, less than 5 hours. Incredible golf at Sandy Lane, Royal Westmoreland.

Turks and Caicos - 3 hours non-stop out of JFK on American. Provo golf club - very high end.

Bermuda Golf - Tuckers Point is outstanding.

Bermuda is lovely in May/June. Hard to beat it.

We're flying non-stop from JFK to St. Thomas, staying there for 2 days and then taking the ferry over to St. John for 5 nights.

My vote would be for Turks and Caicos for the gorgeous white sand beach and calm clear water...but I don't know about golf. My other choice would be the Hilton Cancun which is reopening May 1st. They have a great, uncrowded section of the beach (although the water can be rough at times). The pool, however, is the best you can imagine. Across from the resort is their golf course. I'm not a golfer, but I've been told by others that this particular course is a top "somebody famous who's name I can't remember design". Whatever that means. Check them out online.
