Hi all

Want to take my other half away at end of Feb/early March for 5-7 nights on a nice city break with a view to proposing during the holiday.

Would like to go somewhere with better weather than the UK so preferably warm/mild weather. Budget is around £2000-2500 all in for the holiday. Main requirements are good food and hopefully some good landmarks/attractions.

I am looking at San Francisco and Los Angeles, been to neither before and nor has she. I always wanted to go to San Francisco but the weather in Feb looks unpredictable. LA is better weather but seems essential to rent a car as massively spread out and I don't really want to have to drive long distances to see attractions etc unless unavoidable. Flights are cheap however. Have also looked Caribbean but I think out of my reach budget wise at this point.

The last city break we did was Amman & Dead Sea in April and was fantastic so this needs to equal/top that if possible! I have been to Chicago in the past which was great & walkable but too cold in winter I think.

I'm sure this is a bit vague but any recommendations would be welcome.

Thanks

Nick

Austin TX springs to mind, got some great reviews due to F1 highlighting it.

Dubai might offer what you are looking for at this time of year, or if you are thinking state side try Miami.
