Question: Do you recommend Aruba or St. Thomas? If so...?

Question Description:
Do you recommend Aruba or St. Thomas? If so do you think honeymooners are better served with an ALL INCLUSIVE or would you save more going out of pocket?

Answer#1: Either one is great for a honeymoon. But do yourself a favor and DON"T do all-inclusive on these islands. You will miss the great flavors of the islands. Liquor is very cheap and you can always buy some liquor and make your own cocktails. If your big drinkers. Most people do.It's your honeymoon and romantic dinners are a must. I can't imagine a romantic dinner on a buffet line.The restaurants are wonderful on both island. If you choose St Thomas, make sure you take a day to explore St John. It will be a memorable day. The island is awesome. Trunk Bay beach is a must do.Congratulations and good luck. Enjoy.)


Answer#2: Have been to both and would definitely recommend St. Thomas. They have more activities and nightlife than Aruba, plus you can visit some of the other virgin isles. Personally I'm not an AI fan because I think it discourages people from seeing the islands and spending money in the community, but you have to look at what you plan to do while there. If you think you'll be eating 3 meals a day, and just lying by the pool or drinking not leaving the resort area too much then the AI might be a better option for you. If you intend to check out some of the local restaurants and nightlife, doing some shopping and sightseeing, and visiting the other islands I would say avoid the AI.


Answer#3: st.Thomas nice and beautiful island


Answer#4: St Thomas has more to do. You can also visit St. John by ferry boat, and they have a great resort for honeymooners, the best on the island, it's called Frenchman's Reef Marriott and Morning Star Beach Resort (they are all one and the same, and you can go to both, which ever one you stay at). Stay in the tower, up on the cliff, with a harbor view. I just got back, it was perfect. A bit expensive, but the perfect place for a honeymoon. Absolutely beautiful resort. Check out Trip Advisor.com or Expedia.com for pictures of hotel. Beautiful pools and beaches, on a penisula surrounded on three sides by the beautiful Carribean blue water, with a water taxi to town. It's great! Perfect weather year round. You cannot do better in St. Thomas. It also has the advantage of being a US Territory, unlike Aruba. Mountains are beautiful, and the beaches at St. John are rated in the Top Five most beautiful in the world. Well worth it. Do NOT take a cruise boat, save that for later. A honeymoon deserves a resort, not a cruise ship.


Answer#5: I would recommend Aruba... nice and not a lot of traffic compared to St. Thomas (cruise ship shoppers).. definitely all inclusive is the way to go .. when my husband and I went, we saved a lot of money. compared to my parents that chose the European plan ( no meals).
