Ultimate Girls Getaways February 3 2026

A girls’ trip is always a good idea. Whether you’re craving sunshine, great

food, or a little adventure, these destinations offer everything you need for an inspired escape with friends. Curaçao

This Valentine’s Day, Curaçao invites the girls to celebrate friendship through adventure, offering a bold, high-energy escape in the Dutch Caribbean. The

island is a playground that makes for the perfect Galentine’s getaway, whether diving legendary sites like Mushroom Forest and the Tugboat wreck, scaling limestone walls at Tafelberg Santa Barbara, or hiking through Christoffel

National Park for sweeping views worth the group selfie.

Days get dusted with adrenaline on ATV rides through Westpunt’s cactus-lined backroads, coastal hikes at Shete Boka National Park, and swims at tucked-

away beaches like Playa Kalki. Sun-drenched, salty, and unapologetically bold, Curaçao is proof that Galentine’s doesn’t have to be soft—it can be

empowering, high-energy, and unforgettable with your favourite crew. Generated by DiamondPR

Caribbean Spring Break Ideas for Every Traveler Mark Chesnut | February 5

For some, the concept of spring break may evoke images of partying youths on the beach. But the options for a memorable seasonal getaway are far more diverse — especially in the Caribbean, where families, couples and groups can all find ways to make vacation memories. Destinations and hotels around the region offer activities and packages

designed to appeal to spring breakers of every stripe. We’ve broken down some of the best choices by traveler type.

Family-Friendly Spring Breaks Hotels and destinations around the Caribbean are upping the ante with new offerings for families.

In Curacao, meanwhile, families will find new excitement thanks to recently debuted outdoor experiences at Christoffel National Park — with activities

including rock climbing, full-moon hikes and trail exploring. Generated by DiamondPR

4 Downright Gorgeous Colonial Cities Americans Can Fly To Nonstop This Spring Vinicius Coasta | February 5 2026

Tired of Taco Bell and looking out the window and seeing the American

suburbia reaching as far as the horizon under gray skies? It's been a tough

winter, and maybe a little Latin American getaway is all the pick me up you need this upcoming spring.

But hey, we get it: enough with the Punta Cana all-inclusives and the long

weekends of debauchery and nonstop drinking in Playa Del Carmen. This time, it's that Old World charm you seek.

LatAm is filled with picture-perfect cities settled as far back as the 16th

century, and that have barely changed an inch since, and if you need any help narrowing down your options, these 4 cultural gems are a good place to start: Willemstad, Curaçao

Northern Mannerism meets Caribbean vibrancy, Willemstad is the most

unusual entry on this list. Settled by the Dutch, and still overseen by the Netherlands, it would look like your average canal-traversed town in the

Netherlands, were it not for the bold colors, street markets, and sweltering heat.

The townhouses here, while reminiscent of Amsterdam, are painted in bright, candy-colored shades. And locals don’t typically snack on raw herring with

onions and pickles—instead, the deep-fried, meat-filled pastechi pastry is the

most popular treat at takeout stalls along the harbor front.

Of course, this is still the Caribbean. Even if you're here for the beautiful

colonial buildings and the unique creole culture, you don't want to skip a — to

one of the island's countless palm tree-lined white-sand beaches. Not far from town, Kenepa offers crystal-clear seas and a relaxed vibe.

11 Of The Safest Caribbean Islands For Every Tourist Read More: https://www.islands.com/2095452/safest caribbean-island-vacations/ Rosheda Stephenson | February 9

It's 2026, and the Caribbean is as gorgeous as ever. Islands lined with sand

ranging from white to pink and surrounded by waters that vary from turquoise to emerald sit demurely in the region. Inland, lush greenery frequented by colorful birds beckons tourists to discover more. And spicy cuisine,

accentuated with the flavors of all the cultures that have shaped the region,

guarantees delicious stays. But that's where all similarities end. Each island in

the region has its own safety profile, ranging from highly secure destinations to ones where planning is required to avoid volatile neighborhoods.

Each island also has a distinct feel that appeals to different types of

travelers. Those looking for entirely novel experiences will find a few unique experiences only available in the Caribbean. Nature lovers will

find islands where unusual wildlife is part of the charm. Others will find a

region with attractions ranging from culinary hot spots to islands where dry, desert landscapes sit next to tropical ones. We've found some of the safest

destinations with personalities distinct enough to appeal to various kinds of travelers.

The U.S. Department of State, World Population Review, and a safety index compiled by Always All-Inclusive were instrumental in shaping this list. I've also used my extensive personal experience to help with the

recommendations. The Caribbean is my childhood home, and I have spent

multiyear stints living between the U.S. and the Caribbean while visiting some of these islands.

Curacao: For a well rounded escape

From European-looking districts to safaris in an arid desert interior that seems unusual on a tropical island, Curacao is one of the most exciting islands to visit. The Dutch island is also one of the safest, thanks to a Level 1 travel

advisory, and the only crimes are non-violent crimes of opportunity. Always AllInclusive also ranked Curacao among the region's safest in its 2025 safety

index, giving the destination high marks for hurricane risk, health care, and

crime. With this reputation, tourists can explore the island with zero worries. A day's itinerary could include a stroll by the colorful Dutch buildings in the

architectural eye candy that is the Punda district in Willemstad. After a walk across the famous Queen Emma Bridge, Otrabanda unveils more historic

buildings (a bell ringing means the floating bridge is about to open, so hurry across if this happens). In Otrabanda, the Kura Hulanda Museum is a good

place to delve into Curacao's history. From there, Mambo Beach is the spot for eateries, shopping, and a nice beach.

Another day could begin in Hato Plains, where an ATV tour of red, desert

landscapes dotted with cacti and limestone caves is the best way to see this

starkly different area of Curacao. Afterward, Flamingo Habitat offers sightings

of the pastel-hued creatures. Here, you'll want to ensure your car is locked as the free facility is without secure parking. The day can end at Kokomo Beach.

Visitors who don't want to drive from spot to spot may want to spend a day in Playa Porto Mari, an amenity-filled beauty that is one of Curacao's most

famous beaches and a good spot for enjoying water sports and swimming with pigs.

How to Choose Best Destination for an LGBTQ+ Honeymoon Mark Chesnut | Februaury 16

Many destinations actively welcome LGBTQ+ travelers. But queer couples

looking to celebrate their unions should still take a close look at where they honeymoon, according to Love Inc., a wedding publication focused on

inclusivity. Its first-ever National LGBTQ+ Honeymoon Travel Safety Index,

launched last fall, ranks all 50 states and the nation’s capital based on safety

and overall welcoming vibes.

“Every couple deserves a honeymoon that’s not only romantic but also safe,”

said Love Inc. founder and editor-in-chief Brittny Drye. “Anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric,

rising hate crimes and book bans aren’t just political talking points. They have

real consequences for our community, and especially for the wedding industry at large.”

Welcoming International Destinations The Caribbean and Mexico for Queer Couples Also topping Wright’s Caribbean list is Curaçao, which he says “consistently ranks as one of the most LGBTQ‑friendly Caribbean islands. The locals are

welcoming, it has inclusive events, and that laid-back beachy Caribbean vibe.” His hotel recommendations for Curaçao-bound honeymooners include the Floris Suite Hotel.

18 Most Beautiful Caribbean Islands to Visit Patricia Doherty | Februaury 17

White-sand beaches, crystal-blue waters, and lush tropical rain forests are calling. The islands of the Caribbean are known for their stunning beaches, brilliantly blue waters, and near-perfect weather. While there are many similarities

between them, each one has its own unique topography, history, culture, and well-preserved historical architecture that enhances the idyllic setting.

The most beautiful Caribbean islands also have distinctive natural features—

like St. Lucia’s haunting coastal twin peaks, Dominica’s untouched rain forests, and Harbour Island's Pink Sand Beach in The Bahamas. You can find nonstop flights to many of these destinations, but some of the more remote islands, such as Canouan in St. Vincent and the Grenadines, require an inter-island

flight, ferry, or private charter to reach. That said, we think you’ll find the secluded beaches and pristine landscapes are well worth the effort.

Here are 18 of the most beautiful Caribbean islands to inspire your travels.

Curaçao

One of the underrated ABC Islands of the Lesser Antilles (along with Aruba and Bonaire), Curaçao is located in the southern Caribbean, just off the coast of Venezuela and below the hurricane belt. Here, you'll find a perfect blend of

Caribbean culture and Dutch flavor, reflecting the country's colonial heritage. Natural landscapes range from powdery white-sand beaches to the striking coral rock formations of Shete Boka National Park to verdant Christoffel

National Park, with its namesake mountain, wild orchids, and native deer. Generated by DiamondPR

12 surprising winter vacation ideas for a warm-weather getaway Kathryn Romeyn | Nov 29

If you crave the sensation of winter sun on your skin amid the slowly dropping temperatures in the United States, a few obvious holiday destinations may spring to mind.

Mexico, Florida, the Maldives and Dubai are all classics for a reason, delivering scorching temperatures throughout the shivering depths of December and

January. But that also means they're very popular — and if you find yourself

lusting after a hot vacation every winter, chances are you've already been to a few of them, anyway.

If you're looking for new winter vacation ideas, consider these 12 unexpected locales for a warm-weather getaway.

Curacao

Curacao is the "C" in the Caribbean's ABC islands — with the "A" being Aruba and "B" being Bonaire. All three are ideal winter sun destinations, enjoying

average high temperatures in the mid-80s throughout December, January and February. Indeed, this is the peak season for travel, but it's well worth it.

You'll find white sandy beaches, clear-as-day water and resort-style hotels in Curacao, but you don't want to miss the chance to go diving or explore the

island, which is part of the Netherlands. The influence is visible in the Dutch-

inspired architecture of the UNESCO-listed capital, Willemstad, painted in

cheerful candy colors and lined with lively cafes. February is a great time to

visit, as the annual Carnival takes place that month over changing dates each year, when the island is at its most spirited.

TPG tip: Renaissance Wind Creek Curacao Resort is one of the best-rated

resorts in historical Willemstad and has its own infinity pool. Rates start at $290 or 46,000 Marriott Bonvoy points per night this winter. Generated by DiamondPR
