There is a Chabad house with a little grocery and dairy and meat restaurant/take out. They also deliver. Attractions are not very expensive there. I went in the winter, wonder what the weather is like there now |
OP based on your criteria this is a great suggestion. PR is US territory. The Chabad In San Juan will deliver meals to your hotel. There are lots of high end hotel options (st Regis, Ritz Carlton) that should meet your standards

Mexico is really doable
There tons of food and it's super touristy so I wouldn't be concerned. I think cancun specifically is where people go

If you are wiling to travel outside of the US, how about Ashkelon, Tel Aviv, or Nachsholim (near Zichron Yaakov) in Israel? All very nice beaches and kosher food is not a problem.

I thought of this, but I can only go for 3 or 4 days so the flight time is not worth it when ticket prices are exorbitant! Israel is my favorite travel destination.
Do you know what the weather in beach areas in Israel is during the winter? That could work for me.....

I'm like you. Dreaming of exotic sparkling beaches with light colored blue waters and white sand. I hate the steel gray waters of new Jersey and the gritty ugly sand.
I'm also dreaming of the pink sand beaches in Bermuda. .it's a dream of mine. I can't wait to make it a reality. But no kosher food afaik.
I went to the gulf Coast of Florida and loved it. Not miami. Gulf Coast near clearwater/ st Pete area had light sea green water that was crystal clear. And pure white sand that felt like flour..

Have you been to Sandy Hook? The sand is beautiful. Some people also like Montauk, especially the rocky beaches.

Thanks! Since I love beaches this information will definitely come in handy! Any specific spot (not in the nude section) that you would suggest?

What about Jamaica? There is a resort, which I'm not sure of the name, maybe something like royal Caribbean, it has thatched rooms above the water , maldive style. There is a Chabad restaurant in Montego Bay

Another vote for cancun, or an islands off it like isla mujeres, look into it, may be an option. I felt very safe in cancun

I really appreciate all who replied. I will look into many of these options perhaps for other times.
For right now, I'm putting forth a challenge to all you seasoned travelers to find a place that fits ALL of this criteria
Tropical clear beautiful beaches
Kosher food available
United states territory
Any ideas? Including where you stayed and ate is extra helpful! Thanks!
