We continue our 2016 Caribbean Journal Readers’ Choice awards with perhaps our most important category: the Best Beach Resort in the Caribbean.

Now, finding the perfect beach resort is about two main criteria: a terrific resort and a terrific beach (and one in close proximity to the property). While some resorts are great at the former, others are great at the latter.

But some are the best of both worlds, and we’ve nominated 30 (along with a write-in option) to choose from for the 2016 winner, with a combination of both resorts and all-inclusives. Here’s the ballot for you to decide. Voting ends Dec. 27.

And stay tuned for the upcoming Caribbean Travel Awards, as chosen by CJ’s award-winning editorial team, later this month.

Note: this Readers’ Choice award for the Best Beach in the Caribbean includes nominations by CJ staff, but the winner is chosen by CJ reader voting.
