What's your best recommendation in the Caribbean that is non-stop flight from DC? Prefer small hotels and local restaurants to resorts! Thank you from tired and Vitamin D-deficient me |
I’m a big fan of San Juan and Luquillo. |
STT then ferry to St John |
Grand Cayman (United). Skip the resorts and rent a condo that walks out onto the beach in West Bay. |
Bahamas was a very easy 2 hr flight. |
Thank you for these recs! Any suggestions of small towns with good food appreciated!!

Montego Bay |
Fly private to Staniel Cay, then hop on a yacht. |
+1 I suppose it's an extra pain to get to the ferry but it's worth it. |
You are so annoying |
How is St. John doing after the hurricane(s) a few years back? |
Turks + Caicos from IAD |
Love this thread. For the STT flight, what carrier is this? |
United appears to have a nonstop from Dulles. It's been a number of years, but we went to St John three times. We always did connecting flights out of DCA because it was much cheaper (or maybe they didn't have nonstop back then). You also have to take a wild taxi ride across STT to get to the ferry. But it's all worth it once you're there. |
united to aruba |
