I would look for Costa Linda, any of the Marriott resorts in aruba. It is a great place and very safe, many places to eat and shop. easy to get around with a car rental and very romantic. Flights can be a little expensive, but well worth the price. We own at the Marriott Aruba surf club, but somewhat $$$$.

Good luck and happy anniversary.

Hi! Check out resorts in Puerto Rico. Outstanding values for travel packages going on right now if you book by end of March. And of course the term "reasonable" means different $$$'s to different people! LOL! Good luck!

The Ocean Club is "U" shaped, with the open end facing the ocean. We were on the fourth floor at the "bottom" of the "U", and you wouldn't even know an ocean was there because of the trees/distance. I would think you could get glimpses if you are on the sides of the "U", particularly the closer to the tip on the "U" you are.

Caribbean has resorts providing world class accommodations. I had been to Sandy Lane at Barbados. There rooms are very spacious and wonderful. You can also enjoy water sport, tennis and golf there. It is a bit expensive but a luxurious place to spend your stay.

I've visited different resorts in Punta Cana, Mexico and Jamaica, and definitely the ones where we had the best experiences were in Cancun. Riu Hotels are amazing, you have a lot of things to do at the hotel and the view of the Caribbean is beautiful, but in the end we decided to be members of Raintree Vacation Club because of Club Regina Cancun. The privacy of the beach is something priceless, and it's the ideal place to forget your problems and just relax at the beach. It's the perfect place to spend a romantic holiday with your couple and the staff contributes a lot to help you having the time of your life.

If you are interested in the Caribbean, Barbados is very nice. We stayed at the Bougainvillea Resort, which includes SandAcres Resort, both of which are with RCI. They both have full kitchens. There is a lot to do on the island and there are restaurants nearby.

Grace Bay Beach in the Turks and Caicos has a wonderful beach but it is very expensive.

What time of the year are you going?
