I am looking to go away with dh for 4 days. Want to go with jetblue getaways as theh have good deals. Was wondering where it is best to go. Just want a nice hotel, perhaps do some watersports, go out to eat etc. Can anyone help me which of these places are best? Where there is a chabad and kosher food? Also wouldnt want to go in an unsafe place like Cancun where you have to travel with an armed bus from the airport to hotel. We are on a budget. Suggestions for any other places are welcome. We are in New York and dont want to travel too far. Thanks!

We did Cozumel and it was great! Lots of water activities. There's a Chabad there and a few kosher restaurants. We took the ferry and then a bus to Tulum to explore the ruins. Chichen Itza is also an option for the historical-minded but it was too far for us. From Tulum, it's another 2 hours. We did a lunch on the beach in Tulum. It was beautiful. Crowded but we went during peak time so expected. You can find a good, private spot on the beach though.

If you're willing to bring food, Turks and Caicos is unparalleled. If you want local kosher restaurants, Panama is an amazingly easy and diverse destination to put together.

Since you mentioned Panama, would you have any info regarding vacationing there? I'm considering it and would like to hear more about it.

Cancun and Cozumel are great. But check recent travel advisories before traveling to Mexico.

Aruba is beautiful.

I don't know of any kosher hotels in Cancun, but there are a number of kosher restaurants in the area. Though I've heard that there are different hashgachos with different standards and reliability, so definitely do your homework before going and just assuming they're all fine.
