In need of some advice about traveling?

So ive decided to venture outside of my state for the first time and take a vacation. Ive decided to visit the caribbean / virgin islands (a big step for me). I was wondering if anyone would like to share some "must do-s" or good suggestions to consider before traveling.

What things should i consinder when booking a hotel? As far as money goes, should i go with travelers checks or U.S dollars? Would U.S dollars even be accepted? When trying to decide fun activies to do on my vacation how would i go about doing this? Just go to a travel planner and purchase a packaged deal? As for transportation, i know depending on where i decide to go walking could be best but overall would renting a car would be the best thing to do? How do i keep from getting sick!? I always hear (dont drink the water!) but what happens if i want to have a drink or 2 lol? Should i just bring bottled water? Any thoughts on St Lucia Island?? I Kind of had my eyes on that island but i know little about it.

If you Have any other island recommendations as well as good restaurants to visit please share.

I know thats alot of questions but this is my first trip ever and i need all the advice & help i can get. Thanks in advance!

What's the best spot for a Caribbean vacation, bang-for-your-buck-wise?

The girlfriend and I are looking for a 5-7 day Caribbean excursion. There are so many options on the table we feel we are spreading ourselves too thin in our search, so we’d like to narrow. Here’s what we are looking for (in order of importance):

1) A price tag under 00 when all is said and done. (Flight, hotel, food/drink, activities…everything)

2) Beautiful, not-too-crowded beaches with clean, clear water. Access to secluded areas, and kid-free beaches would be great.

3) A variety of activities. While the greater part of this trip will be beach relaxing, we definitely want a couple days of adventure. Specifically: snorkeling/diving, jungle tours/hiking, rafting/tubing, ruins and landmarks, off-roading, fishing, etc, etc. I’m a nature boy, so I’m more interested in off-the-beaten-path stuff as opposed to cookie cutter tourist trap stuff.

We want nice amenities, but don’t require 5 star. We are 31/26, so are down with a bit of nightlife, but aren’t going crazy.

If anyone has suggestions on destinations, and maybe even resorts or regions within those destinations, we would greatly appreciate the advice. Also, recs on where NOT to go are also great.

Here is our current, broad list:

Costa Rica
Belize
Riviera Maya
Aruba
Puerto Rico
Bay Islands (Honduras)
Virgin Gorda (Little Dix Bay)
Turks and Caicos
Bahamas
US Virgin Islands
Jamaica
Dominican Republic
Trinidad/Tobago

Feel free to talk up or talk down these spots or add to the list. Thanks in advance!

Trip to the Caribbean, What Island & Resort would you recommend?

My parents have decided that instead of christmas gifts we are going to go on a vacation in January. we have only been to Florida, so we don’t have much experience researching vacation destinations.

A Cruise is out of the question for my father. There is just the 3 of us, and I am over 21.

We are thinking, Bahamas… or maybe Barbados, St. Lucia… but are open to other suggestions.

Here are what we are looking for…
1) Going in January… dates are open, but we are looking for warm weather.
2) We will be flying out of Toronto, Ontario, Canada out of the Toronto Pearson International Airport
3) **All Inclusive (including booze and food) and entertainment, like clubs and shows
4) *** Hopefully a room that has at least a separate living area with a pull out couch as BOTH my parents snore, or a cheap seperate, 2nd room
5) atleast 4 stars
6) Lots to do, activities, sights to see, snorkeling, swiming with dolphens, horse back riding on the beach, waterfalls, shopping, things like that.

I’ll stop there as i dont want to limit your suggestions.
I appreciate it sooooo much.
Thanks in advance, Megs

Island/In state vacation??? Plz help……..?

In March my friend and I have some vacation time and wanted to go somewhere different from Miami(nothing against it but we’ve been going at least once every yr). We would like to go to the US Virgin Islands or Puerto Rico but everything seems really expensive(I believe we’ve waited too late). We would ideally like to go somewhere warm/tropical, nice party scene and a place where they have reggae clubs and Caribbean/African style food(which we love). Any suggestions will be nice???? Oh also..if we DO decide to go to Miami are there any places like above(due to peoples preference I have yet to find any). THANKS IN ADVANCE.
