Couples often find the shoulder months of November, early December, and May particularly appealing. The weather is still excellent, but the crowds are generally smaller than during the peak holiday periods of late December through March. This allows for a more relaxed experience, whether you're exploring the local markets or enjoying a quiet meal by the ocean.

For families, the peak season between late December and April is a great choice. While it's busier, many resorts and local tour operators offer more activities and services during this time.
