Tony..A few years back I went to Antigua..we went in early Sept, which is off season..Still beautiful though..We stayed at a 5 star resort that is about 450.00 a night..since it was off season, the price was about 90.00 a nite if I recall..
We went on a cruise to 6 different islands..Nevis, St Maarten, St Johns, Etc..Had a blast..Our bar tab on the ship was more than the cost of the cruise..hehe..
I have friends who have been all over the Carribean many many times..One couple has been there over 250 times and know every island, bar, place to stay, and more importantly places to stay away from, so let me know where you wanna go, when you wanna go and I will give you the scoop on the place..FYI, check out Tortola..another really nice place..
I would love to go back again and will probly do so next year as well..
