Planning trip for family/friends. No kids. Want all-inclusive, great food and bars/nightlife. Price not necessarily an issue. Turks, Anguilla, and St. Lucia have been discussed. Looking for perfect mix of relax and party...go. Thanks in advance, baws.

Jade Mountain - St Lucia
Hermitage Bay - Antigua

St. Barts has a number of really high end resorts but I haven't stayed at them. I can vouch for the two I listed tho, they are 5* quality with 5* pricing. Not really a "party" atmosphere tho.

Turks has some of the prettiest beaches in the world. But not much partying going on if that's important to you. I keep repping Grenada for the combination of beaches,food, nightlife, friendly people, diversity of geography and ambience.

Jade Mountain is the opposite of night life.

Thanks. Not necessarily a party atmosphere but bars on location with decent energy.

Y’all must be OT ballers to afford jade mountain. I looked it up for my honeymoon thinking the price they had listed was for 5 nights and it was the nightly rate. Crazy expensive

Well, then. Necker Island it is.

Ok. Seriously since Necker is almost certainly above any budget you've set.

Sailing the BVI is one of the great pleasures there is. As stated, you can get a catamaran with a captain and chef plus there are plenty of delightful places to eat at your many stops. You can also do the same thing in St. Vincent and the Grenadines but they can be more difficult to get to.

What VABuckeye said.

Also, if you want nightlife X100, go to St Barths. Bring your big boy check book, though.

Also, insane food there.

ETA: No sir, Jade Mountain is not cheap. Amazing experience, but pricey.

As is St. Barths. But a badass experience!

St. Barth’s is amazing. Probably my favorite place on earth.

OP, can get a good deal on an amazing villa in the “Value” season. Which is now til about November.

Done this and it was the best 10 days of my life. And I'm pushing 60.

Don't mention that number. I'll be 58 in less than two weeks.

I was 20 years old and spent the summer living and working in the BVIs for a sailing camp. The majority of my days were spent either fixing boats, taking boats around the islands, or driving dive tanks from one end of Tortola to the other. At nights we would hitch hike into Road Town or Soper's Hole and bar hop.

Of course, I knew everything at that point in life and came back and finished college. What an idiot I was.
