I'd pick an island based on what you want to do and find one that has a lot of that -- diving, golf, sailing, beach lounging, high end spa resorts, etc. and base it on that. The weather isn't the same from island to island as far as rainfall amount/humidity/temperature since it will depend on whether its a windward or leeward island.

Some are way more expensive than others as well, mostly due to the type of non-residents that hang out there. St Barths is on the upper end of expensive, Turks & Caicos much more reasonable but still very nice, for instance.

St Maarten, Curacao and Antigua are three of my favorites. Aruba and St Thomas are two of my least favorites.
