We might also pamper ourselves with some spa time. The trip will be for 4-5 nights so I don't want to spend a lot of time traveling. I'm thinking in the US or Mexico or possibly somewhere in the Caribbean that is easy to get to. I'm open to beach, mountains and just about anything in between.

I can splurge a bit and also have about 150,000 SPG points so I might do some combination of points and $.

Any suggestions or reviews of SPG options will be greatly appreciated.

Canyon Suites at the Phoenician is absolutely fabulous. Unbelievable service. Smallish property with additional amenities of the Phoenician a 2 minute walk away. Beautiful large cactus garden. Coffee and biscotti delivered daily to your door. Free wine tasting with snacks in the lobby daily. Outstanding spa and even when full, you feel like you are alone. Beautiful pool at the foot of Camelback Mtn. Great atmosphere and dining of Scottsdale.
