Weather
July intensifies the wet pattern with near-daily rainfall and humidity that rarely drops below 90%. Temperatures peak but feel much hotter due to moisture. Storm systems can linger for days.

All Months
December through April delivers perfect weather — 80-degree days, minimal rain, and trade winds that keep humidity manageable. This is peak season, so expect the highest prices and the most (relative) crowds. Book accommodations months ahead for Christmas and New Year's.
May through November brings hurricane season, but also significant savings. Many properties drop rates by 30-40%, and you'll have beaches almost entirely to yourself. The weather stays hot and humid, with afternoon thunderstorms that clear quickly. Hurricane risk peaks in September and October.
Here's the insider tip: visit in May or November. You'll dodge both the peak season crowds and the worst of hurricane season while still getting great weather. The Four Seasons often runs promotions during these shoulder months.
Avoid September entirely unless you're comfortable with hurricane risk. October can be gorgeous but remains unpredictable. The island essentially shuts down during major storms, leaving you stuck in your resort.
