I just checked Beaches T&C and it was $20K with flights, but only flights currently out there are with AIr Canada. I might ask my wife her thoughts on that.

What are your dates? United and American also fly there (and I think SW too).

Unless they are giving you money off of flights, I would suggest booking flights separately from your room at Beaches. It's just a pain if there are flight issues.

June 2025 which American doesn't have up yet

Oh gotcha. Yes will come out late August (330 days in advance typically).

Another for Costa Rica

Turks and Caicos
4 nights at beaches resorts
Then 3-4 nights in a house somewhere on the island

Rent a car and travel to different beaches
Parasail


Would be a good time

Try the big island w kids. Volcano NP. Mauna Kea peak for Mountain View's n stargazing.

Stay at Vrbo condos at Mauna Kea resort. Get all the amenities of the resort but kitchen n living room w separate bedrooms for the kids all for price of the main hotel double queen room.

Play their golf course it's great. Their beach may be best in USA or at least top five. If you don't like it incredible varied beaches of all kinds are an easy drive away.

Rent car so you can enjoy the rest of the coast. Snorkeling at Mauna Kea beach is good. It's great down the coast at the captain cook monument.

One night you'd need to drive down to the Sheraton in Kona to see the manta rays feeding on plankton near water surface. Quite interesting and amazing wildlife. Can even pay for a manta ray snorkel adventure and prob still come in under $15k.

Week long? I suggest going to Vieques and St Johns. Great beaches..about 20 of them, snorkeling with sea turtles, etc. , clear pristine beaches, lot of hiking. Can take private fishing trips. Wild horses everywhere. Just hang out. Bio Bay Kayak tour at night will amaze you and kids. Just seeing the Milky Way in complete darkness will amaze the kids..and you.

Flights to San Juan are as inexpensive as going to west or east coast. Airplane or ferry to Vieques, Airplane to St Thomas and ferry to St Johns.

Can then go to Old San Juan on way home for a day for shopping, first Spanish fort in U.S., lots of old churches, buildings. Tropical rainforest.

Not touristy at all, but has been a great trips for us as we go to get away somewhat from the crowd. If you want more upscale and touristy, go to St Thomas for a couple of days.

No passports needed.

Going to Turks next May. Haven't been in a decade...Recommendation for a private snorkel/boat charter and anything else that would be great for a group. Ages 5+
