Arrow Quick 3-day getaway advice needed

Hey all,

I'm looking to take my girl away on a 2-3 day getaway this "weekend" but I'm not sure where to go. I'm looking for the advice of the US flyers as I'd like to use my US miles for the flights.

Here's what I've got and what I'm thinking:
- 90k miles in my account to spend, 27k in her account. If going to Europe, 2 Y awards come from my account.
- Leave on Sunday, return back wednesday afternoon at latest (I have to work at 2000 Wed Night)
- Both of us have our passports.

The big question is where to fly to and where to stay? As far as budgets for hotels, I'm trying to keep it on the relatively cheap side. I'm guessing approx. $100/night for a hotel - sound reasonable?

I've been to London once and never to the caribbean; my girl's never been either place.

Availability for the dates seems to be very good for most locations.

HELP! Any ideas / suggestions appreciated.

-JC
