You experienced SXM'ers have provided invaluable info to make our first 3 week trip such a success that we were planning our next trip on the way home. Just curious ... do you have 2nd & 3rd choice destinations, why, and how often do you visit them? We usually do 3 weeks each annually in Aruba & Curacao. Tired of long flights FLL-HON after 20+ trips. Thanks for your feedback.

We have traveled to Dominican Republic and stayed in an all inclusive on Bavaro beach, in Punta Cana. Its pretty reasonably priced, a beautiful island and very friendly people. You can get excursions that pick you up at the resorts and return you. The only down side is, i don't think it's and island you want to go out exploring on your own much.

If you like to stay close to St. Martin I'd recommend Nevis or Anguilla.

We've tried many (most?) of the islands of the Caribbean but I've yet to find one that is the total package like SXM. Some that we've liked would include Barbados, Anguilla and Grenada but none is the total package like St. Martin. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" />

Ahh, finally another Curacao person! Just curious what you like about it. We stay at the Renaissance and Royal Sea Aquarium next September.

We own 2 weeks at Sea Aquarium...love the Royal Resorts everywhere. We've been going for about 12 years, 2-3 weeks each visit. Love Estella & Zuli! They encouraged us to swap for SBR this year. now we're hooked on SXM. Shhhh, let's not tell anybody about Curacao, a best kept secret! There's a 3rd TS on the island now, sounds very swanky.
