Caribbean Holidays

I have tried BA, Virgin, Travelmatch, but I am looking to find an all inclusive holiday the caribbean - anytime in 2015. The aforementioned will only allow search with dates and limited flexibility.

Any sites that would allow me to search on all 2015 to find the best deals?

    Hello

    I have worked for Virgin and currently work for Kuoni

    Its not really possible to select the whole year and search that way

    Have you an idea of what budget you have?

    The type of accomodation you require?

    Thanks

    Have you seen the P&O deals for the Carribean - they are currently offering £899 pp for the flights and 14 night cruise all inclusive - mostly for departures in the next few weeks but some january deals too.

    that sounds fantastic and I will certainly have a look at it, but its most likely to be 7 nights and flights as the mrs grinch has no sea legs....but that cruise is tempting :)

    hi there, under £850 pp, 7 nights all inclusive ideally st lucia, but will consider st kitts, antigua, bahamas, tobago, barbados and cancun/dom rep if nothing else...between mid feb to 1st june.

    is there any difference in standards between the smaller islands and the larger resorts like cancun?

    Thomas Cook sell the Caribbean and from manchester not just London, i'm not sure if their website checks a large date range but the system in a TC shop checks a long date range and they're the same price in the shop as the net and sometimes you may get free parking or airport lounge as an incentive to book.

    If you have only been to Cancun, then St Kitts is very different. Yes it is a tourist destination, but nowhere near as developed as Cancun.

    What do you want out of your holiday? If it's an all inclusive and just to veg out on the beach, then Antigua has fab beaches. Can't speak for the all inclusive though as haven't stayed in them.

    I know where it is, it's in Mexico, on the Yucatan Peninsula

    The Caribbean is a group of islands in the Caribbean Sea

    There's no end to 'creative' marketing in the travel industry, I guess
