Start the New Year Right with a Caribbean Getaway

When it comes to Christmas gifts, it appears that more women than men believe it’s better to give than receive: A recent study found that, on average, women spend almost twice as much as the men in their lives on gifts.

What’s more, the study found that women prefer to receive gifts that allow them quality time with loved ones. Given the disparity, what’s a guy to do when it comes time to cross names off his holiday gift list? Buy the gift of travel, of course.

Travel Impressions is offering a host of offers through Elite Island Resorts, which represents a vast array of beachfront properties in the Caribbean, that can save a couple up to $700. What better way to start the New Year than with a tropical vacation?
