Caribbean Island Advice - Input Appreciated

There is also a marriott in aruba. Marriotts are limited in the Caribbean. Aruba is a cool place. Really diverse geography for a small island. Big party island. Lots of bars and stuff.

The marriott in curacao looks kind of neat.

We just got back from Exuma, Bahamas a few weeks ago (very similar to Eleuthera - about 100 miles south) and I would highly recommend it. The water is unbelievable, and it's not heavily developed. You get the true Caribbean experience in the outer islands. We're heading to T&C at the end of March and while it's a lot more commercialized, the water is about as good as it gets.

My first thought was Aruba.

Thanks. This Renaissance that's in downtown Aruba seems promising. Has a private island for beach, but also allows for other things to do in the city center.

Are there a lot of "public" beaches you can drive to elsewhere on the island?

1. Simply upload all your photographs to an easy-to-use sharing website like Flickr, Imgur, Instagram. Don't use Facebook, Photobucket or Shutterfly.

2. Once you've uploaded all of the pics you plan to share here on TD, navigate to the first picture on your photo site. Right click on the picture and choose "Copy Image Address" as shown below....



3. Come back here to TD (within an active post/reply) and click on the img button over to the right and you'll then see a pop-up box that says enter a valid image URL. Right mouse click into that space and choose "Paste", and it will fill in the exact link to your photograph from your other site. Click OK. New text should be added into your post that looks somewhat like this:
[img]htttp:\\wwww.yourphotosite.con\yourphoto.jpg[/img]

NOTE: Click on the Preview button to ensure your photograph shows up properly before you submit the post.

4. Repeat steps 2 and 3, toggling between your photo site and the active post here until you've shared all the pics you want. Feel free to add any descriptions or things you think we'd like to know about.

5. Submit!


Thanks!

If you haven't been, there is a Marriott in Grand Caymen. We stayed there a few years ago. It's on Seven Mile Beach.

Grand Caymen is our favorite spot and the best kept secret of all the main tourists spots

i love how its not a third world country and everything is so clean and nice. The cleanest and nicest beach and water ive ever seen too

ST Kitts/Nevis have several Marriott chain hotels and are more calm,quiet and luxurious islands, check them out.
