not too general eh?
I am posting for a couple who wants to escape their children for 5 days somewhere that is a direct flight from new york, not too far, warm this time of year and in the realm of 3,000 to 4,000 for the trip.
This is a couple that has slightly different interests - she likes to read and float in the ocean and he is a golfer who gets antsy sitting all day long on a beach and wants some sort of nature trails, waterfalls etc. to pursue. They keep going to jamaica and want to try something different.
any suggestions?
thanks so much!

Try the Cayman Islands

Rent a villa on the OTHER coast of Jamaica in Treasure Beach. Golf at the Manchester Country Club in Mandeville, the oldest golf course in western hemisphere, features US$22 greens fees )cf US$175=200/day at Tryall for non-guests). See the community web site at www.treasurebeach.net for a wide spectrum of choices that are kid-friendly, laid-back, non-resorty, relaxing with plenty of diversions should you want to do more than de-compress and bliss out with a book by a pool or the beach....

Cayman is great,but there's not too much adventure.
In Puerto Rico, they can do all of the above and MORE; Not to mention much cheaper.
ps--7 Mile Beach in Grand Cayman is FANTASTIC

simply wondeful suggestions - thank you! do you perhaps have a cayman islands resort suggestion?
