We are a big extended family, and are looking for a place (US preferably)  to go on vacation.
generally we have a few requirements.
1.Kosher food within an hour of the place.
2. mountains preferably nearby
3. shabbos minyan
4.  babysitting.
5.  Cost is not the concern

Does such a place exist?

The more creative the better. LA and Miami are out.

Denver.... Also a bit more than 1 hour for the nice places but still in the area

Montage Laguna Beach has chabad across the street and Kosher food an hour away in LA.

You can do perhaps Whistler with Vancouver.

Other than that I think you will have to look at organized Kosher trips.

Looks like that would be your best option.

Really, anywhere in Europe, North & South America and, Caribbean,  Jewish friendly.
7-10 days ideally.
No real budget.

Jewish friendly means must be kosher supermarket? Kosher restaurants? Minyanim?

City type vacation with museum and attractions? or island vacation with more relaxation?

Paris, Prague & Rome have good food & shuls.
Carribean youre probably best off with Cancun.
Whistler/Vancouver also has good food & shuls.
Banff has no shuls or food.

Need some expert advice here. I have Tuesday through Sunday available for a trip, including travel time.
Adults only. I see availability to Phoenix, Banff, Denver. LA too, but we've been there already.

Which destination would work best for that amount of days
