Looking to go somewhere with DW from a Sunday till Wednesday. From NJ area.
Private pool (fine with a pool in a hotel suite)
Up to 4 hour flight (have UA/AA/Chase/Amex/Citi miles)
Kosher food option there

Is CUN my best option?
SJU?

Quotes in a signature is annoying, as it comes across as an independent post.

It seems some people live in a bubble...

You have DC, Baltimore, Philadelphia, Boston.


Maybe they specifically want a minyan of people wearing tefilin?

I would make a joke but my back is already hurting from all that ducking.

Is there anything like this in America? Private pool in your suite.
Maybe South Florida?

Any ideas for a toddler friendly vacation? 2.5 yr old and 6mo kids, Within US. We love national parks, but I find that most require lots of driving - we'd want activities within an hr drive of hotel/airbnb. Bonus points with specific kid toddler activities
Jury Duty: Nothing to do there but chill and write a TR. Kinda like the beach but missing the view and ocean breeze.

Recommendations for another country (or 2!) to combine with England in the summer?
Original plan was Russia....
Already been to Venice, Austria, Prague, Hungary, Switzerland, Amsterdam, Athens
I can do Rome and the rest of Italy or Spain, but prefer somewhere thats not so hot.
Preferably somewhere with minyan... Considering Iceland, but doesnt have this requirement (and is very pricy)

not sure this been asked before but any recommendation for a one week vacation in which i can use the 35K mt certs during the summer?
must be kid friendly (4 kids under the age of 7) and kosher + minyanim a big plus.
looking for something other than Miami/Orlando and LA/SD. Hawaii looked good but i feel its gonna be too much traveling with lil kids.
please let me know if you have any leads! TIA

Hello,
I just got married and am planning a trip after pesach for a honeymoon. She wants something exotic but I wouldnt want to do something that requires bringing food along. We are thinking Playa Del Carmen because of few of our friends went there and said there are great options for kosher food. What is the best idea with hotels? I have Marriott points and could possibly transfer chase points to some other type of hotel. Also if there are any other suggestions, we havent made up our minds yet so feel free to change it.
