While a white Christmas is certainly appealing for those of us who are used to snuggling up by the fire with loved ones for an evening filled with hot apple cider and steaming hot chocolate, there are millions of people who might prefer to wake up to the warmth of a tropical sunrise come the morning of December 25. If you want to experience what it's like to spend the holidays in a place where you won't have to wear anything more than a sundress and flip-flops, then the time has come for you to rent Caribbean villas and spend your Christmas morning opening up presents against the backdrop of a tropical paradise.

Decorate the palm trees in St. Thomas
There aren't many evergreen or pine trees in St. Thomas, nor can you expect to find icicles dangling from roofs. You will, however, see palm trees wrapped with festive lights and faux icicles hanging from homes and restaurants. If you're really feeling the Christmas spirit, you could even decorate villa vacation rentals to your liking, depending on what your family traditions are.

Instead of spending Christmas morning skiing down a hillside on a toboggan, why not spend the day hiking throughout the dramatic landscape with your family? Once you get back to your lodgings, you can reward yourself with a refreshing cocktail in lieu of a hot tottie.

Make a sand angel in Barbados
The sand might get in your hair, but if you're used to making a snow angel during the holiday season, you can do the exact same thing on the beaches of Barbados - or any Caribbean island, for that matter. Luckily for you, numerous villa rentals are located right on the beach, so once you make your angel and snap a photo, you can run back and take a shower to wash out all of that sand.

Celebrate like a local in Jamaica
The streets of Jamaica come alive just a day after Christmas for Boxing Day, and locals dress up to take part in celebrating their culture while reeling in the new year. This festival originated in the Bahamas, and since then has become a staple in a number of Caribbean islands. Performers will play brass instruments, dance around and sing to their heart's content for your enjoyment.

In the Caribbean, you'll have the most unforgettable Christmas ever.
