Florida last year.
I know some people will cringe at this but I don't care. There's absolutely TONS to do, even though we mainly went to the theme parks and waterworlds, but I can't wait to go again. My mate has been two or three times a year for the last five years (they've bought a villa out there) and they still say they never have enough time to do everything.

Another vote for Florida from me!! Seven trips to the sunshine state in the last twelve years with trip number eight coming up next June!
We absolutely love the theme parks but also try to do other unusual stuff, Horse riding, swimming with dolphins, sunset dinner cruises in Key West, Ive even piloted a WW2 Fighter Trainer doing loop the loops 3500ft above Kissimmee airport!! Fantastic

Greenland.
I spent a week staying in Angmagssalik which is an Inuit (Eskimo) town on the east coast. The area is so remote that the Inuit living there were not contacted by the modern world until the 1950s. Some of the older Inuit can still remember the first contact.
Fabulous scenery and walking. No pollution and the water is so pure it can be drunk from streams and pools. The valleys are so remote and unvisted that precious stones can still be picked up from the ground!
One day we had a trip on a shrimp boat down the coast through icefields and icebergs to a small Inuit village of seven families. The people had never seen a tree, doctor, dentist, car, train etc. The children would never go to school and their little bay was their world. They were all born and died there and lived entirely from the sea. It was amazing to realise that we were still in Europe!
Saddest of all was watching the death of the Inuit culture. We saw elderly Inuit dressed in sealskin going out in their kayaks to hunt every day. Yet they would walk past the town's youngsters who were just hanging around the town store in Western clothes. There are no jobs and no hope and the young Inuit just live on welfare checks from Denmark. They are not interested in living in the old ways and they are all dead drunk by 2pm. One in 13 of all deaths in Greenland is now by self-inflicted gunshot.
Despite that sadness, Greenland was fabulous. The only travel is by helicopter, boat or foot as there are no roads or cars on the east coast. I think it is the most beautiful place in the world.

I have had so many enjoyable holidays to different destinations that I am loth to put one as the best (unless it was my first one !). I know people who for many years have acted as tour guides in Eastern Greenland and are equally enthralled (and saddened) by it as Andyvon. Not wanting to spoil anything, I should nevertheless mention that Greenland is geographically classed as America, east of it Iceland is in Europe.
Egypt was great but the gest ever had to be Borneo because it's still unspoiled with friendly people.It's very cheap too with a meal for two in the Hilton deluxe restaurant under �30 for three courses but much better is the food in the food courts where you get amazing seafood(or anything else you fancy) at rock bottom prices.You get to choose exactly what you want and they cook it in front of you.The Orang utans are pretty amazing and friendly too and the river trips great value.I could go on all day about this incredible place.Capetown South Africa is fabulous too
Thailand - Ko Tao & Phi Phi Island, are the best places I have ever visited, SO FAR.
Why - The people are so friendly, the travellers I met were fantastic people, the beaches golden, the scenery phenomenal, the feeling of total relaxation and care free'ness was overwhelming, the food was amazing, waether was excellent. I've been twice, with girlfriends and a boyfriend and both times I have cried coming home. If I could live their I would. x

Yes Thailand was great for us. Bangkok and Phuket but Malaysia tops that for me. KL and Penang. Very friendly and sincere people and great food and sights. Not forgetting excellent and cheap made to measure clothes.
Not in a hurry to return Stateside though. So many locals prove to be too insular.
If you fancy a cruise - take a Caribbean one - brilliant to see the diversity of islands, cultures and rain forests and beaches
