Looking to go somewhere for an extended weekend in Feb/March.
International
Not further than 6 / 6.5 hour flight
No Zika

Have already been to Iceland, but something along those lines would be good.

I thought of that, but it takes quite a long time to get there. Minimum flight time is 11 hours.

Shuls or jewish people.
I haven't done much research on hotels although it seems like a nice up and coming destination and the weather may be good in the winter.

Looking for somewhere to go X-mas weekend (thursday-tuesday).
Anywhere in US that's a nice (warm) vacation destination that will not be packed due to holiday.
Any ideas?
