Why Aruba
Why we picked it: Aruba is the best value we priced for a week away: $449 round trip, 39% under the typical price.
Aruba sits outside the hurricane belt with trade winds, cactus-dotted desert and year-round dry weather, which is why it has the most repeat visitors of any Caribbean island.
