You want a nice tropical vacation go to Hawaii!
I went to HI in April. Nonstop flight on Hawaiian Airlines from Boston to Honolulu 11.5 hours. Six hour time difference. You lose a complete day coming back. Then it takes me about 3-4 days to reacclimate from the jet lag.
That is why people from the eastern US time zone go to Caribbean Islands. Many go to DR because it is cheap.
I have never been there. I probably never will.
I have been to Bermuda, BVI’s, USVI, Grand Cayman, Bahamas. I would go to Barbados, St Bart’s, Turks & Caicos and Nevis.
I would not go to many of the others. Even in the USVI there are a lot of sketchy places. Especially on St. Croix and St. Thomas.
