Answer#1: honey i recommend CUBA it is the best even tho is

HOLGUIN,CUBA and go to the guardalavaca hotel is
by the beach and it is the best the beach is
called guardalavaca beach and is so good it is
only for tourist from America trust me.
Answer#2: One thing that you will find when being in the
Caribbean during the summer - the weather no
matter which island you're at is very warm, so it
is almost a non-issue. Some basic yet important
questions come to mind (I am Owner of a Travel
Agency):1- Do you have a specific departure/return
date in mind?2- What city would you depart from?3-
Are your travel documents in order? (A valid
Visa/Passport is mandatory since this is
considered International Travel)4- Do you have a
Travel budget in place?5- Believe it or not, these
4 islands offer more than just casinos, beaches,
and Hotels/Resorts. There are cultures to learn
about, sightseeing, and different cuisines,
depending on the country in question. Based on
the statement you made about wanting a vacation
that is for relaxation purposes and also depending
on what your Travel budget is, either St Barts or
Aruba are ideal. Another thing to consider -
since this is a vacation, I would highly recommend
a package deal. This is because not only will you
get the same high quality accomodations, but air,
taxes, and transfers are included in the price.
This option will let you realize some decent
Travel savings.Again, depending on when and where
you want to go will factor in to the type of
vacation that you want. If you could kindly
either e-mail me at: indysteve1563@yahoo.com or
reach me directly through Yahoo Messenger
(username: indysteve1563), I can assist you in
finding the vacation spot that you will be very
happy with and will also be pocketbook friendly.
Answer#3: Of course those places are hot all around but
probably hotter. I'm currently in Barbados, and
it's hot here. It's up to you on where you want to
go. I think what suits you is St. Marteen. But if
you want a change of island, then be it. You can
feel free to look into Barbados.I plan on coming
back here this summer, around July/August but
because airfare is going to be cheap with one
travel agency I go to, so that's a plus. And I am
not even worried about accommodation, but if you
don't care about fanciest but at least clean, then
feel free to check into Pegwell Inn Guest House,
it's the cheapest one compared to any others!
Answer#4: I agree with Stella St. Martin is the place to go
, I went there last August and plan to return
again this August , I have been to Dominican
Republic , Cuba , Mexico , but liked St. Marten
the best. The Scuba diving was excellent there and
very professional staff . The place I stayed was
Maho Beach resort near Simpson Bay /airport . The
food was great and they serve only bottled beer ,
Heineken being the most popular being on the Dutch
side. The French side is nice , but uses the Euro
not US dollar like on the Dutch side but has one
of the nicest beaches , Orient beach , half of
which is nude.. The locals are very helpful and
friendly and there is plenty of night life and
easy to meet people. It is not too hot there
either you get a breeze of the ocean in most
areas.
Answer#5: You have to be careful in the summer when you
book. Hurricane season starts June 1-Nov 30th.
Aruba is the safest island because they hardly
every get hurricanes. They are out the range.
Antigua, St Barts, St Maarten are right in the
path. What you do is make sure you take out travel
insurance as a back up plan travel during the
hurricane season.I think St Maarten is a great
place to vacation. Shopping is duty free,
beautiful beaches, casinos and great night life.
Plenty of clubs. St Baths is very laid back and so
expensive. It's French. The rich and famous go
there but if you go to ST Maarten, you ferry over
there for the day. You can also go to Anguilla.I
like Antigua too. Great shopping, 365 beaches, one
for every day of the year.But, I think St Maarten
will give you the variety you sound like you
want.good luck and have a great trips
