Key West, Florida
  • Resident population: 22,364 (est.)
  • Major features: water sports, beaches
  • 25,123 TripAdvisor reviews of 678 accommodations, 154 attractions and 216 restaurants
Where else are Ernest Hemingway and Jimmy Buffett equally revered? Key West is a sunny, fun destination with enough sights to keep you busy when you're not snorkeling, parasailing or catching some rays.

  • Major features: beaches, surfing, Pearl Harbor, Diamond Head
  • 32,940 TripAdvisor reviews of 462 accommodations, 207 attractions and 1,130 restaurants
If you visit Honolulu simply for the wide Pacific beaches, the striking views of Ko'olau's pali (cliffs) and the laid-back "aloha" feeling, you'll be missing out on much this city has to offer.
Algarve, Portugal
  • Resident population: 350,000 Annual visitors: 5,000,000 (est.)
  • Major features: golf courses, beaches
  • 19,740 TripAdvisor reviews of 951 accommodations, 107 attractions and 430 restaurants
The Algarve's sunny shores offer perfect escapes for all types, from those seeking the hot nightlife of flashy, energetic Lagos to those desiring secluded stays in rambling Sagres.
Miami Beach, Florida

  • Major features: nightlife, beaches, shopping, art museums
  • 26,393 TripAdvisor reviews of 363 accommodations, 71 attractions and 403 restaurants
South Beach, or SoBe, is Miami Beach's buzziest bit. The vibrant area, with its pastel-hued buildings, hip nightclubs, trendy shops and see-and-be-seen restaurants, attracts socialites and their satellites year-round.
Istanbul, Turkey
  • Resident population: 12,569,041 Annual visitors: 3,994,000 (est.)

Historic and modern, European and Asian — that's Istanbul. The city at the junction of two continents is home to ancient structures like the Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque in the Old City, as well as modern businesses, hotels, restaurants and nightlife in the New City.
