It’s small and very beautiful. It’s hilly and the old areas are cobbled so no heels for walking. There are beautiful places nearby if you want a day out Sinatra has the old palace of the former royal family. Porto is another beautiful city further north which is well worth a visit.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/resort-search#post-2368086 Sun, 18 Aug 2024 22:27:42 +0000 Jules 2368086@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m sure Lisbon will be lovely!

We decided to go to Caribbean in the spring, for our big wedding anniversary. For our October vacation we booked a flight to Lisbon.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/resort-search#post-2368024 Sat, 17 Aug 2024 02:37:02 +0000 Helena 2368024@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Irina, I should clarify T&amp;C is the most stunning beach I've ever seen ... Not sure how it is if you like non beach adventures as we pretty much did ocean and pool for the most part. Have fun planning! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/resort-search#post-2368019 Fri, 16 Aug 2024 23:05:14 +0000 MsMary 2368019@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have only been to the Caribbean on a cruise so can't help you with resorts, but I do want to caution that September is prime hurricane season down there so you may want to take that into consideration. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/resort-search#post-2367906 Thu, 15 Aug 2024 16:14:41 +0000 cat2 2367906@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The former French possessions tend to have better food. But our travel was many hurricanes ago, so I don’t have any current recommendations. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/resort-search#post-2367880 Thu, 15 Aug 2024 13:22:28 +0000 Irina 2367880@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Helena</b>! Thank you so much! We haven’t thought about Turks and Caicos! off to research it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/resort-search#post-2367869 Thu, 15 Aug 2024 12:17:22 +0000 Helena 2367869@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>We've been to several but possibly a bit too family oriented for what you want. The Royalton Bavaro in Dominican Republic was fantastic (good food and lots of options) and would probably be a top pick for DH and I to visit again. Although the resort we went to wouldn't be right, Turks and Caicos is the most stunning place I've ever been and I can't imagine there's a wrong choice there ... Friends and family often will Airbnb there too, and have loved it. I have an awesome travel agent who helps us with trips, based on Toronto if you want her contact </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/resort-search#post-2367836 Thu, 15 Aug 2024 01:16:45 +0000 Irina 2367836@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A couple of years ago, I asked the forum members for their advice on where to go for beach vacations in Florida. I got many suggestions and we went with one - St.Petersburg (Treasure Island). We had wonderful time and this year our kids took our grandson there to his first beach vacations!<br />I hope to get some advice again.&nbsp;</p> <div>My DH and I planned to go to Europe but we somehow do not exactly feel up to it with a long flight and time change. So, we are thinking about staying for a week in a resort some place Caribbean. The choices overwhelm us a bit. We are not resort people, generally speaking but we want to try.&nbsp;<div>We want to travel at end of September or first week in October. We both are swimmers, so nice beach and pools are #1 priority. We probably would be better off in a bigger resort with choices for food since we are vegetarians but I’m not sure. We would love a nice place to get a great, relaxing experience. We like walking and exploring, we are not too much in organized activities or entertainment. I envision a boutique resort, something memorable. But I have no idea where.&nbsp;</div><div>There are places we know we do not want to visit at this time - Jamaica (been there, stayed at a private condo) and Cuba (for many reasons). Also, not Hawaii, too far.&nbsp;</div><div>Any suggestions? Can you share your experiences with Caribbean resorts? Is it a good idea at all?</div><div>I’d appreciate any help. Thanks in advance.&nbsp; </p> <p> </div></div><div>Update down the thread.&nbsp;</div></p>
