They said St. Martin. Their reason? Most Caribbean islands have a visible poverty class that can make one feel kind of guilty for having so much fun in so much luxury. St. Martin, they said, doesn't really have that.
That's interesting. I talked to someone last weekend who said quite the opposite about St. Martin. Can anyone confirm/deny from personal experience?
