curacao? jamaica? puerto vallarta (again)? others?

[crosvs]

so my buddy and i are still trying to plan a 4 night trip (may 16-20) to some place where our priorities are (1) beautiful clean beaches; (2) THEN some night life. In other words, we both have girl friends, so our #1 priority is just to relax and chill on beautiful beaches and a clean and comfortable resort.

we're looking only for all-inclusive places, and would prefer to not spend more than $800 or so (before taxes and stuff).

any suggestions?

we were prefer NOT to do: puerto vallarta; cancun; cabo because either one or both of us has done those placdes before.

we'd love to do acapulco but at least according to expedia.com and applevacations.com there's only two all-inclusives although it's virtually impossible to get there: at least 2 stops to get there!!!!

thoughts?

thanks!!

I like Aruba...a little far but unspoiled....very different than Mexico...

Have you though about the Dominican Republic? Stopped there shortly while on a cruise....not sure about night life or anything....

Grand Cayman?

Anyways, hope you find a nice place, and relax in the sun!

A 3 star joint in Jamaica would be my suggestion for that kind of price at that time of year. Next to between Christmas and New Year's, you've got the most expen$ive season in Spring.

Negril or Ocho Rios would be my suggestions for nice beaches and decent nightlife. You will see a lot of girls in not a lot of bathing suits, but they always say: don't take sand to the beach

You'll save money if you book your trip with your buddy because double occupancy rates are always lower. Read reviews at tripadvisor.com before you book. Orbitz has a coupon good for $100 off a stay of 5 nights (mega100) and $50 off a 3 night stay (mega50) right now.
