During our online chat (most Mondays at 2 p.m.), you ask and we answer -- mostly. Here's one we couldn't fully answer last week.

My friend and I, both single ladies in our late 20s, are planning to go to Club Med in Turks and Caicos. Do you have any feedback and/or reviews regarding the island or the Club Med experience?

For two single women traveling to Turks and Caicos, Club Med is "almost incomparable," says David Gray, a vacation consultant with Carroll Travel on Capitol Hill. "It's a cross between an all-inclusive and a summer camp." Club Med recently renovated its Caribbean properties, including the T&C resort, one of the company's most popular vacation spots. The resort, oriented more to singles than families, is all about "wish fulfillment," Gray says.

Because of the arid setting, most of the activities are water-based, such as parasailing, snorkeling and diving. For land diversions, that's where Club Med comes in: "The property is where it all happens," Gray says.
