[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Very nice idea.  I want to take my mom somewhere but she wants to do a cruise and I have no interest in that!! Might take her to our home country instead.

In regards to your question:  We probably spent $10-12k per year (HHI ~$200k).  We spend our money on vacations, not on luxury items domestically, though.  We travel extensively, with 1 big trip and 2-3 medium trips per year.  The key to keeping it financially feasible is by being smart with your travel costs.

Why Grenada or T&C?  Are flights generally cheap?[/b]  If not, try a location that has cheaper flights.  If you want a resort style vacation, compare prices to find one that has just what you want - don't splurge on a place if you're paying for amenities you won't use.  If you stay at a hotel or AirBnB you can probably save even more.  Travel doesn't have to break the bank - just do your research![/quote]

No, the beaches are supposed to be immaculate in Grenada, T&C and Anguilla (though I haven't seen many family friendly resorts in Anguilla). I want it to feel like a storybook vacay for my mom. Clear water, powdered sand, luxury accommodations, etc. I don't know any destinations with that criteria with cheap flights, but I am very open to suggestions![/quote]
