Monterey, CA. Hop, skip, and jump from Big Sur, Carmel, San Jose, Santa Cruz, San Francisco. FTFW.
Been to a lot of places but no stand out favorite yet
With the wife: Adults only all inclusive resorts in the Caribbean. Super relaxing with good cocktails and food. Wake up, have breakfast, cocktails by the pool and beach all day, dinner and dancing in the evenings. Repeat for 8-days.
This was years ago before the non-stop flights. Yes, the ~16 hour flight is now much better (15.5 hours to JoBurg and 17 hours on the way back).ATL - JNB nonstop is blocked at 15.5 hours. You connected somewhere but didn't do a plane change? I think that would be a bit odd due to crew rest issues\requirements

Travel doesn't have to be too expensive.
A long weekend flight to Leon airport in central Mexico (for a Guanajuato trip) in May looks to be running ~$450. It can be far cheaper than that especially if you go in a less common time of year, I didn't even price shop for this post. The Peso is so cheap that the rest of the trip is almost free (a quick glance at Hotels.com gave lots of good looking rooms in the $25 to $55 range).
Yes, it costs money, but it isn't that much out of the reach to have a great trip.
So you fly into PR and then boat to St. John?Maui. Though we're trying St. John (USVI) this summer and I really hope it wins me over as I prefer the proximity.
When I mentioned I hated beach vacations earlier, this is exactly the kind of vacation I was referring to. The only saving grace for me was when we took a day trip to Chichen Itza and explored all the cool ruins. Otherwise I am bored out of my mind.
