 Great resource book! November 24, 2003
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I bought this when it first came out and found it really helpful, especially in some of the more unusual budget suggestions like the Guavaberry Spring Bay Vacation Homes on Virgin Gorda in the British Virgin Islands. Then when the author revised this book in "Tropical Family Vacations" I picked up a copy of that book and have used it instead since resorts in the Caribbean seem to change so frequently. I still refer to this earlier book for its more extensive introductions on each island. I consider it an excellent book, but would refer readers who want more current info to the updated book instead.
 Skip this out of date title January 25, 2003

This 1995 book is far out of date, listing several closed resorts. Further, the book does not include any information you couldn't find in a resort's brochure, or on its Web site. No new information, nor objective reviews of the resorts - skip this title. It doesn't even deserve one star.
