where to go in carribean?
 
my husband and I are searching for island vacation(probably carribean). We like beautiful place to stay, spa is a plus and great food around. We dont need huge night life but some is nice. Also, activities or sightseeing available is good since I need to get my skin out of the sun anymore! Any ideas? Amazing resorts? Romance atmosphere? No sandals type-done that. Thanks-oh going in march or april

What about Aruba? Lots of nice hotels and great food. The Waterfront Crabhouse is a Seafood/Steakhouse that I highly recommend. Lots of nightlife for the nights you do feel like going out. Not a lot of culture or history, but the dining really is good.

I would suggest the VI. St. Thomas is fun, romantic and you could enjoy a day in St. John or the BVI.<BR>Lisa

There's a website - Spafanatic.com - that show some properties in the Caribbean that have spas with special rates (they also have USA spas). It's not ALL properties, but some.<BR><BR>I can also recommend some others:<BR>- Sandy Lane, Barbados<BR>- La Source, Grenada<BR>- Le Sport, St. Lucia (our fav)<BR>- Jalousie Hilton, St. Lucia<BR>- Cuisinart Resort and Spa, Anguilla<BR>- Sole' Spa at Peter Island Resort, BVI<BR>- Golden Door Spa at Las Casitas Village, Puerto Rico (a friend from Ecuador visited there and enjoyed it)<BR>- The Caves, Negril, Jamaica (friend of mine LOVED the spa services there, as well as the unique property/<BR>accommodations)<BR>- Plaza Resort, Bonaire (a couple we know that dives, the wife enjoyed the spa here)<BR>- Jungle Bay Resort, Dominica (near Martinique), is another that I've heard about, with a great spa; the property is simplistic but with nice furnishings and in a rainforest type atmosphere <BR>- The Spa at Point Grace Resort, Turks &amp; Caicos (haven't been there; heard some great things about this resort/T&amp;C)<BR><BR>I'm sure others will note other properties on this bb as well. You're cutting it pretty close with availability for March; maybe April will be more possible. Hope this helps.<BR>

For a very romantic stmosphere and excellent dining try the Eden Rock Resort in St. Barts. You will need a car to tour the island.

Forgot, website is edenrockhotel.com or just type out Eden Rock Hotel, St. Barts in Lycos or Google. This sounds like the perfect resort for you.
