Vacation planning sucks
We are looking to go away a week in August. All inclusive, adults only. Not Mexico since we went there 2 years in a row. We can't find anything good without paying a ridiculous amount for 1 week.
Where should we go? Where would you go? I'm getting the evil eye because she's beginning to think we won't find anything.

Okay. You have convinced me. I'm off to Syria. Good thing I have 3 life insurance policies.
Too bad there isn't anyone who would honor them here when you voluntarily go there.0 -
They have really nice couples cruises I promise you won't be bored with just the two of you. There's so much to do, you'll be plenty entertained.
I also like virgin islands or Bahamas. Bahamas has beautiful resorts that have luxury amenities. You won't be disappointed either way but I do like cruises. It's simple easy, no stress and very affordable. I opt for all inclusive though, it's just easier.0 -

Costa Rica is my number 1 choice but I can't see us spending what we would have to in order to stay at the resort I want to stay at.
Maui, not enough time, expensive, I really have no interest in going there.

Beach. She wants to go to DR but I don't care to go there. We are trying to find something there but we don't see anything we want. In Punta Cana I only see the Excellence that caught my eye. And outside of that I would chose to go to Samana, DR but I don't know if it's worth paying that much.
We are doing 6 days, 5 nights. 3500 budget not including any money I take with me. The last 2 years we went to all inclusives but we still managed to spend 1000 each time so I'm probably budgeting the same.
Not to get picky, but I'm guessing that is airfare included in that budget? If so....are you flying from a major hub or points that would be more cost-effective? Example - I can fly to St. Thomas from Minneapolis for $600, but to Cancun for $350. I've driven to Chicago a couple of times to leave from O'Hare and left my car at a hotel near the airport (shuttled there). Saved $400 per person on airfare. Don't mean to pick it apart, but it can make a big difference in where you spend your $$. I have a couple of thoughts in mind, but they would not make sense if you are flying from the middle of nowhere, but would if you were leaving from Vegas or La Guardia, for instance.0 -
What about Puerto Rico? I'm planning on going there next winter for about 10 days.0

Ok, one of the places I've been was to the Westin St. Maarten. I did a very quick glance at the prices based on a week's stay. $1,516.51* per person
includes Gov't Taxes & Fees of $129.51 per person
Air, Hotel & Transfers $2774.00*
Gov't Taxes and Fees $259.02*
Total: 2 Vacationer(s) $3033.02
That was using August 22 thru 29. Going with Apple Vacations.
There is also Riu Palace (all-inclusive) Also thru Apple.
$1,600.51* per person
includes Gov't Taxes & Fees of $129.51 per person
Air, Hotel & Transfers $2942.00*
Gov't Taxes and Fees $259.02*
Total: 2 Vacationer(s) $3201.02*
There is also Cozumel (yes, it's Mexico, but totally different feel) You can stay down by the Palancar Reef or on the Northern area where the water is crystal clear and no tell-tale reef up there. If you are interested, I can give you two of the places I've been there.
You should find decent deals for August, since that is ramping up for hurricane season.

To Add - the nice thing about St. Maarten, is if you wanted to do any day trips off the island, there are places to visit (like Saba and Statia). Worth a look when there. A lot of places will even add on a meal option if you request it.0

Turks and Caicos? Beautiful!
Costa Rica is awesome (and so is Maui-trust me, it's worth it!).
Cayman's.
I also love cruises. There's a great cruise out of Puerto Rico that does southern Caribbean so not many sea days, different interesting ports and but for alcohol and shore excursions, cruises can be pretty inexpensive.0 -
I forgot to add, I love turks and caicos . We went years ago but I do really like it there. We stayed at a beaches resort so it was not expensive at all. But it was still very nice. They had a good spa with a full gym and massages . The beach was lovely. (I live at the Jersey shore.the beach there was way different. Lol )0
