Featured Destination: Cayman Islands

Carefree in the Caribbean

Readers of Conde Nast Traveler recently crowned the Cayman Islands one of the Caribbean's best -- thanks to its "twinkling turquoise water" and "breathtaking beaches."

This trio of Caribbean islands tempts with deals that save up to 40% for travel through 2013, with the best deals popping up in late summer and fall.

Grand Cayman, the main island, is an hour's flight from Miami and serviced by airlines across the U.S. -- including JetBlue, which recently started nonstop service from New York and Boston.
