Places to visit in the Caribbean

My family is anxious to travel again and we are planning a Caribbean vacation for spring break of 2022.  Any suggestions of where to go?  I have been to Puerto Rico, St Thomas, Dominican Republic and the Bahamas and would like to go somewhere I haven't been yet.

I would recommend your family books a cruise so you can visit several Caribbean islands.

Grand Cayman is very nice.  Beautiful beaches and water.  A lot less poverty than most islands.

 

St Maarten - very nice island - reminds me of St Thomas.

 

Aruba 

 

Cozumel

@ninjawife  I agree with @disneynut57  about a cruise.  Each island is different and a cruise will give you a little taste of each one.   Much depends on what activities, if any, that you and your family would want to do.

The next time that I hear salt and ice together, it better be in a margarita!

Been to visit multiple islands in the Caribbean.   We have mostly stayed at Resorts that are gated though.  Do your homework as some islands are not very safe at all,  I agree with @ShopperL  Aruba and St Maarten are lovely and quite safe to walk around.

Re: Places to visit in the Caribbean

Thanks for the input.  I am not really a cruise type of person.  The only activities I am really interested in are lying on the beach and eating good food.  I would prefer a nice resort that has good restaurant options.
