Caribbean Destinations 1.2
The numerous islands in the Caribbean Archipelago are always in the spotlight for anyone seeking for a memorable holiday and for those who want to learn more about the most beautiful places in that region of the world, a utility like Caribbean Destinations could come in handy.
Pleasing interface and well designed layout
This application offers a nice overview of an island beach thanks to a panoramic background image that you can enjoy throughout the various sections of the app. The graphics are decent, but the pictures are not of the highest quality.
The content is fairly well structured, with the information kept organized under relevant categories, so as to make it easy to find and retrieve whenever necessary. Navigating through the several areas of Caribbean Destinations is relatively fluent, with a slight delay when exiting the individual sections corresponding to the islands and resorts listed inside.
Basic information about the main destinations at a glance
The utility provides a bit of details about several spots you might want to choose for your next vacation, but it doesn't go too much in-depth. Thus, you can check out the main islands, including Cuba, Antigua, Jamaica, Aruba or the Dominican Republic, as well as a couple of destinations from Central America.
A small but fairly relevant selection of resorts awaits to be discovered in the dedicated section of the application. The details related to the facilities and amenities offered in those locations are rather scarce and focus only on the essential points of interest you might want to learn about.
There is also a neat map location feature inside Caribbean Destinations that will make it possible to easily peek at the selected islands and take a quick tour, courtesy of the phone's built-in maps.

Bottom Line
Design / UI7
The appearance of this utility is fairly decent, with some pleasant graphics, a neat layout, but lacking the expected quality in all the pictures included in the various sections of the app. |
Function6
As a starting point to exploring the Caribbean, this application may be useful as it offers only a very small amount of info and also a limited number of destinations. |
Security8
The app needs to access several system areas, most of which for good reason, but there a couple of them unrelated to the actual functionality. |
Battery8
The amount of energy necessary for Caribbean Destinations to function well is moderate, so the battery usage doesn't reach high values. |
Price7
As a reference source, this application is rather thrifty in providing information, so even if it is free of costs and nuisances, its overall value is less impressive. |
Compatibility8
Ready to run mostly on the more recent handsets on the market, the utility needs at least Windows Phone 8 installed to work fine. |
