  We went to St. John last year on our honeymoon, and it was wonderful. A largely unspoiled island with plenty of isolated beaches, rainforest areas, and big mountains. I don't know of any all-inclusive plans there, but that doesn't mean there aren't any.

  Somewhat more commercialized, though still very nice, is Aruba. All-inclusive plans abound there. It's more of a desert island, though, with 85 degree temps, "divi" winds and no rain 10 months out of the year. The sun is hot, the sea is warm but refreshing, and getting rained out is all but unheard of.

  I'd go back to either island in a heartbeat.

  Thanks Neonmadman and Hochimin........I will most definately check these out.

  LOL, Beans.........ask Valis how concerned I would be about beer! The only thing that would "upset" me would be no ice for my glass! LOL

  BTW, Beans.......how "safe" was Punta Cana? Anything to be concerned about?

  Scooter:

  It was very safe! As the whole resort is a compound there are no locals only people from the ajoining resorts. The drive from the Airport is about 20 minuites and if you have been to other Islands you see alot of poverty, I hardly saw any on the ride which was comforting and a good first impression. I saw alot of expensive homes which were apparently rich baseball players.
