We LOVE St. Thomas. And it’s easy to day trip to St. John. Don’t forget to spend an afternoon on Water Island!

PP: Will also add that Grand Cayman was our least favorite island, for what it’s worth. Was fine with our baby at the time, but wouldn’t go back.
DR the people were hands down the friendliest and most service oriented I’ve seen in the islands. Mexico of course as well.

Punta Cana, Montego Bay, Cancun also have direct flights on United. Summer isn’t great for sargassum generally…
Although Jamaica was actually fine last August when we were there- very little to none where we were in Montego Bay and Oche Rios. Water was great in Negril last March.
I was just in Dom. Rep. (Punta Cana) last weekend and also very little. Great water and beaches. Was there for work but saw mainly massive resorts which aren’t really my thing. Good airport infrastructure!
The last two times we were in Tulum there was a lot of sargassum, sadly (both in Aug and February) I believe Cancun does a better job removing it from the beach with big machinery, but it’s not as charming.

Really nice pools, very close to beach and an awesome breakfast buffet on site that was one of the highlights for my kid lol.
What did you do in Aruba? Similar age girl

We were in the Bahamas last year. It wasn’t the most exciting, unless you stayed in a resort
