Old San Juan's colorful streets, El Morro fortress, Condado Beach, and a legendary nightlife scene. No passport needed — US territory. One of the best value beach destinations from Chicago.
Crystal-clear turquoise water, Zona Hotelera strip, and some of the best all-inclusive resorts in the world. Hotel Zone nightlife rivals Vegas. Passport required — grab one if you don't have it.
South Beach Art Deco, Ocean Drive nightlife, Wynwood murals, and warm Atlantic water. One of the most reliable cheap flights from Chicago. Also the departure port for most Caribbean cruises.
The Strip, world-class shows, dayclubs, pool parties, and every restaurant concept imaginable. Typically the cheapest flight from Chicago. Perfect for a Fri–Sun with a group or solo.
Nassau, Coco Cay, and Key West stops. Carnival's 4–5 night sailings depart Thursday or Friday — pair with a cheap ORD→MIA flight (~$139) for a full cruise experience. Best value intro to cruising.
Royal Caribbean's short sailings hit Cozumel, Roatán, or Labadee. The ships themselves are attractions — surf simulators, rock walls, Broadway shows. First-timer favorite. Watch for 3-night deals under $299.
Bourbon Street, the French Quarter, and the best food city in America. Beignets at Café Du Monde, jazz at Frenchmen Street, and rooftop bars overlooking the Mississippi. One of a kind.
Bavaro Beach — one of the most beautiful in the Caribbean. Packed with all-inclusive mega-resorts (Hard Rock, Barceló, Iberostar). Best value if you want a full beach resort experience with included food and drinks.
