Best place to go w/kids in the Caribbean???
What is the best family friendly resort in the Caribbean? 
I'm still looking for somewhere with beautiful turquoise waters, romantic but yet kid friendly for us to go to renew our wedding vows next year? It's so hard to come up with a place that will be romantic for us but at the same time, the kids will have a lot of fun. Being safe is also definitely a priority.

Re: Best place to go w/kids in the Caribbean???
You should check out Aruba (my sister is going this Nov, she has a 2yr old) and staying at the Marriott Renissance. She had her wedding there 3 yrs ago and it was beautiful. There are 2 seperate hotels one for Adults only and one for families. They also have their own private island which is realllly nice to renew the vows.
Let me know if you'd like any other info.

Re: Best place to go w/kids in the Caribbean???
I have gone with toddlers for the last 3 yrs to Aruba. Stayed that the Marriott Surf Club..
VERY KID FRIENDLY!
We didnt have to rent a car..so no car seats...is a big saving on stuff to lug through two airports!!! (our cab driver provided 2 car seats to and from the airport)...and there is 100s of restaurants to walk to at night...on the high rise hotel strip! Completely safe and roaming with families and couples of all ages
The lazy river and pool with a slide was a hit with my 3 yr old and 2 yr old! There is also a small playground off the pool with swings, climbing thing and slide (dry/lang) for some play time!
There is also a game/activity center with stuff to do (even xbox type stuff for older kids!

DITTO! Actially, thanks to you we used the same Taxi Cab driver and it worked out great! DS slept in the car the entire drive from the Timeshare to the airport, online and right till we got on the plane. LOL!
Marriot Timeshare is the best for kids in Aruba. Lots and lots of families, plenty of activities. Even though there's plenty of places to go to for dinner we even enjoyed dining in. DH and I put DS to sleep and ordered in, sat on the balcony and had some wine. Well, not this past time since I was prego, but he had his beer. There's a kitchen to keep all the kids stuff in and we packed a bag each morning to sit by the beach or pool. Went shopping in town to fill up the fridge too

If money is not an object, defiinitly look into Beaches Turks and Caicos. Cannot say enough good things about it.

I've heard great things about Aruba although I've never been.
We just got back from a vacation with DD at Turks and Caicos and had a great time and I definitely think it is romantic and kid friendly (if that's possible  )
