The Honey is bugging me for a Christmas vacation trip and I'm thinking sun, golf and somewhere in the Caribbean. Done Puerto Rico and Aruba; who's got a spot that is cool but won't break the bank?
Thanks.
Thanks.

Caribbean over Christmas is as much as double the price at many places. If you can wait and go just after (January 3-10), you will save a ton of $$$$
Or just before. Dec. 8-15 will be a lot cheaper than Jan. 3-10....which is a lot cheaper than Christmas/New Year's.

Also look at Costa Rica, can get some pretty good deals there as well.
Avoid the Palace Resort properties like the plague unless you want to spend your vacation being endlessly hounded about timeshares.
Now thinking Dominican Republic might work for us; anyone have any experience(s) with any of the all inclusive resorts there? Thank you.
Thanks for the input; not looking to go on the cheap; just trying too keep it reasonable. I've heard great things about Costa Rica; anyone have a specific recommendation there I should check out?
The Los Suenos resort is really nice. You can stay at the Marriott or rent a condo in the complex there. Massive fishing area, not far from Jaco, if that is your scene. Plenty of tours of rainforest, crocs, zip lining. Only about 1.5 hours from San Jose.
The Dominican Republican has the best golf in the Caribbean, IMO. Casa de Campo resort with The Teeth of the Dog course is incredible.
