Check out Curacao...but don't stay in an all inclusive, I think that would be boring. Get a boutique hotel downtown and explore.
We always felt safe walking around (even through this one area that was pretty bad and we probably shouldn't have gone through, but was far away from downtown) they use the U.S. dollar as well and there is various things to do. Should be a fairly cheap flight I'd imagine.
The drawbacks are that if you stay downtown you have to take a cab to any of the beaches, most hotels offer free shuttle to one of the beaches though, and there are generally cruise ships coming in once a day or once every two days, so downtown becomes flooded with people during the day (can be good or bad I guess, depending on how you look at it), but reasonably quiet at night.
Great restaurants though (not very cheap, but food is really good).
