If you just want a couple of days away from SXM and in a totally tropical environment, I'd take Todds suggestion and try Saba. Queens Garden Inn is lovely and boasts a wonderful restaurant. If you hike, dive or snorkel you will feel like Paradise found. We don't do any of the three but we do like to chill and found three nights four days there to be a perfect and beautiful change of pace. Much more than that would be B O R I N G!! Or at least boring for us as you can only read so many books and take so many photos. The Swinging Door Saloon was the only weekend hotspot when we were there, and it definitely wasn't SXM-like hot but it was a fun place, but note, please, it's been 5 or 6 years since we were last there. Bring your camera as its a gorgeous island with incredible photo ops everywhere. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" />
