Readers are asked to express their ideas on the best hotels, resorts, cities, islands, cruise ships, spas, airlines, and more. Hotels—along with safari lodges—were evaluated based on their features, setting, service, cuisine, and overall value. Based on their locations and amenities, properties were divided into city and resort categories.
