Hope this helps - I'll give you mine and the wife's recent trips. When ever we do our big trips, we try to make them all inclusive.

We did the Iberostar Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic back in 2007. Very nice resort, great beaches, but there was a definite language barrier. My spanish was rusty, but knowing German really helped. Apperantly it's a big European vacation spot. The food was meh.

Marriott in St. Kitts - by far mine and the wife's favorite island so far. We went back in 2008 and are looking for an excuse to go back. We are both big into snorkeling/SNUBA/SCUBA excursions, as well as horseback riding. This resort offered everything.

We just did the Windjammer Landings in St. Lucia for our honeymoon in May...My personal advise - stay away from St. Lucia. It was over priced, and I think there is more reputation holding it up at this point. This was supposed to be a higher end resort...I've never seen one with cans of raid in every room, and half eaten food in the fridge.

Jamaica - good if you're under 26 but over 18, other wise there are better places to go.

I saw a few guys above me posted about the Eldorado Royale in Mexico. I've heard nothing but good things about these resorts, especially the private cassitas (personal houses with private pools). I would say check it out.
