2009's Destination of the Year Is...

December 30, 2009 at 12:04 PM | by | Comments (0)

We took stock of the biggest hotspots of the decade and we came up with a number of great places. But there was one spot that stood out for having its travel moment in '09; the Destination of the Year is the Dominican Republic.

Guys may love the location for being the setting for 2009's Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue. But the DR won us over with its hopping cultural center of Santo Dominigo, affordable all-inclusive beachfront resorts, polo opportunities and of course, delicious plantains. Hey, if it's good enough for Jay-Z's 40th birthday party, you know it's a place to go.
