Question: St. Thomas, Cayman Islands or Puerto Rico?

Question Description:
My wife and I are planning a second honeymoon to one of these Carribean locales. Does anyone have any input as to which is better? We will be there 6 days and 5 nights.

Answer#1: I've never been to the Caymans, so I can't comment on them.I have been to Puerto Rico several times, and loved it more and more with each visit. (I was there when the Concorde landed there in 1976, and everyone partied on the freeways!! lol) There are a lot of different things to do. Most of the hotels have an area where you can sign up for a whole slew of tours. My favorite was the Bacardi Rum Factory and El Morro fortress. The views from El Morro are AWESOME.There is (or was) a huge mall there, called Plaza las Americas. A lot of familiar stores and lots of neat eateries. You can also head into Bayamon for more shopping and a real cultural experience.St. Thomas is a short hop away, so you can always arrange a one day tour. Charlotte Amali (not sure of the spelling) was a really cool place. It was open air markets where you could get semi-precious gems and jewels to have set into rings, necklaces or what ever. They do it there, or you can take your jewels with you to have done at your own local jeweler.I recommend seeing Blue Beard's Castle. It has a very romantic feel to it and the view of the ocean, just outside the honeymoon suite was breath taking. You also have Megan's Bay to see, where people sail boats all over the place. It's gorgeous.No matter what ya'll decide, have fun. Each island has it's attractions and the locals will be more than happy to suggest places to sight see, eat and party.


Answer#2: 1st Puerto Rico2nd PR3rd PR4th Puerto Rico5th St. Thomas6th Puerto Rico7th Puerto Rico8th Florida9th Cayman Islands


Answer#3: 1. Puerto Rico (there is something different each day: Old San Juan, Culebra, El Yunque, Mona Island, Arecibo Observatory, the caves, Guanica Forest, etc. The food and dance clubs are great, too.)2. St. Thomas3. anything but the Cayman IslandsIf you spend 5 days in the Caymand Islands you would be wasting money and dead from boredom. Nice diving/snorkeling but there is no night life. Once you've been there for 2 days you are ready to go.Other choices to see are St. Lucia, St. Barts, Martinique.


Answer#4: Puerto Rico would be my first choice and St Thomas my second. Both had a lot to do and see. Cayman islands are nice but reminded me of Aruba, small not much there to do, plus it is very expensive. If you just want to relax on the beach for five days I would say the caymans, but if you're interested in sightseeing, shopping and culture then definitely Puerto Rico or St. Thomas.


Answer#5: I like the US Virgin Islands. Why you ask, they belong to the USA and you can use your dollars with out worrying about converting your money. Same with Puerto Rico. Cayman Islands are expensive. Food and hotel. If you go to St Thomas, be sure to take a ferry over to St John, you will see some of the most beautiful beaches. It is 3/4 park land and you don't have a bunch of hotels on the beaches. I like St Thomas too. Great shopping and good eating. It can get a bit crowded with the cruise ships but I still like it.My advice if you are American stay with the USA islands, better value for your money. Of course go else where if you can get a better deal. Have fun and enjoy your time with you wife.


Answer#6: None of those, The Jewels of the Caribbean, the Grenadines are the best. Go to Saint Vincent and the Grenadines and take one of the island's many boat trips around these beautiful Islands.Same place they filmed Pirates of the Caribbean. Beautiful place, good people, brilliant beaches. You'll love it.SVG Rules.


Answer#7: Cayman Islands!!!!!!!!!


Answer#8: If you take a cruise, you can hit all those places.....and.....most of everything will be prepaid like meals, etc.


Answer#9: St. Thomas... the water and beach and everything their is beautiful


Answer#10: Puerto Rico! <3
