Default Vacation Ideas?

So, I'm attempting to plan my next vacation...
So far, I've decided that March '09, I'll be visiting the Great Smoky Mtns. I'm renting a cabin in TN. Secluded, romantic. blah blah blah!

I want to take a beach trip during the summer, or early fall. I'm debating where I'd like to go. I've considered Myrtle Beach, SC. I'm an SC native, so it's a 2.5 hr drive- 196 miles. I've also considered Daytona Beach, FL. I've been there once, I liked it. about 5.5- 6 hour drive-422 miles. I've also been looking at Panama City Beach, FL. That's 508 miles... prolly 6.5- 7 hours. Anyone been to these places? What's your recommendation? I've been looking @ condos on VRBO. If I visit PCB, I'm probably gonna stay here.

Naw, I'm ------ witcha.. I can't afford that. and there's only 4 of us goin!

feedback and more great vacation ideas are greatly appreciated!

i rented a cabin in the Smokies about this time last year. Had a pimp *** cabin and it was awesome. I would do it again. They've got indoor skydiving there. It doesnt last long enough but I suggest it anyways.

Next month, me and the wifey are going here: http://www.valentinimperialmayaresort.com/

The smokies are sweet. Stop by and have a drink with me and JD when you come up.

IMO:
Myrle beach sucks, not as good as it used to be.
Daytona sucks to live there, but good for vacation, dont go on bike week.

For beaches:
Google Oak Island, NC cheap+fun w/scenery


I would personally save my money and go back to Nassau. The bahamas ------- own.

You're right.. Myrtle Beach is nothing close to what it used to be. I have been disapointed the last few years because you run out of things to do a couple adys after u get there...

Daytona is OK for vacation. I agree. I couldn't live there... Too many tourists.. lol

I'm thinking of sending Mom/ Dad on a cruise to Nassau In Oct '09. Mom's big 5-0!

Myrtle Beach--- Beautiful and relaxing
Daytona Beach--- A hot ---- hole

Personally I recommend Cancun that place is the ---- and you can get awesome deals off of
Expedia.com. Get the ---- out of the country...
