A Vacation in the Caribbean Sun

When it comes to vacation destinations that emphasize having fun in the sun, nothing tops the Caribbean. Located just to the south and east of Mexico and north and west of Venezuela, South America where the waters are a stunning blue and the sun is hot, a Caribbean travel vacation has something for everyone, whether you are one for water sports, hiking, swimming, diving, and just simply frolicking on its white sand beaches.

Paradise can come with a hefty price tag, so many would-be vacationers away from the idea of traveling to the Caribbean. Instead, they save a few dollars by settling for a less exotic locale. Of course, most other destinations can't compare to the many treasures of the Caribbean.

Ah, but what if you were told that there's a much better way to spend a vacation? What if you were told that you can go on a Caribbean travel vacation without needing to spend a lot of your hard-earned money?

A Caribbean vacation at a discounted price! Now, there's an idea.

Below are several attractive hotels where you can keep the island flavor high and the prices at a bare minimum while on a Caribbean travel vacation:

Style and Glamour -- Anguilla

The most northerly of the Leeward Islands in the Lesser Antilles, Anguilla is an island known for the style and glamour of many of its resorts. For this reason, the island is a popular Caribbean travel destination for many visitors who want to bask in the undeniable charm, romance, and excitement that the islands are known for.

Rendezvous Bay Hotel and Villas may not have all that style and glamour, but what it lacks in that department, the hotel makes up for its location and unbelievable rates (starts at $130 while a villa costs $275). This Caribbean resort hotel has 46 rooms, all sitting directly on 50 palm-laden acres, including a one and a half mile long sugary sand beach. The resort has been recently refurbished, offering white tile floors and simple rattan furnishings, and is divided among a dozen low-rise buildings.

Ku is another remarkable Anguilla hotel group. The word Ku means "sacred place" when translated to the Arawak Indian language. This 27-suite hotel overlooks Shoal Bay East, with South Beach style accommodations, minimalist white decor, air conditioning and full kitchens. Room rates start at $295.

Antigua is for Lovers

The island of Antigua is located just south of Barbuda, another popular Caribbean travel destination. Antigua is self-promoted as a "luxury Caribbean travel escape", and with good reason. The many hotels and resorts located around the coastline are favored by honeymooners visiting the romantic Caribbean.

They say that Antigua is for lovers, but you don't need a honeymoon to take in the romance of this beautiful place. Just visit the Cocobay Resort and you'll be taken in by the incredibly romantic atmosphere. The resort is located on a hillside overlooking the Caribbean Sea. The 47 Creole-style cottages are decorated in soft pastel tones, and rates begin at an affordable $240. It's a small price to pay for a true piece of paradise.
