We need a vacation.
Don't we all, right? But it's been long overdo for the two of us. We want to go some place warm and relaxing...something tropical. But here's the catch: we don't want to see...people. We want to go to a place where we don't have to see barely a single soul.

Any suggestions?

1. Pricey and difficult to get to, but absolutely gorgeous.

2. VERY nice.
Thanks for the tip. Never heard of St. Vincent, but is exactly around where we were looking.

3. When? And how much $$$?
For gorgeous, almost empty beaches, at fairly reasonable prices, Gulf Shores, AL after Labor Day.

5. We're shooting for the end of the year.
Even though we're about to commit to our very first mortgage, we're looking to splurge. But within reason. We're not rich, but have some savings left over once we put up our downpayment.

Tropical beaches where the only one we see is the person bringing us cocktails on the beach.

4. The smaller islands of French Polynesia..
..very expensive to get to, but well worth it!

7. It is!
Just skip the island of Tahiti, itself, though. That island is terribly overdeveloped.
