The Best Islands in the World: 2022 Readers’ Choice Awards
The 2023 Readers’ Choice Awards survey is now open for voting! Head here to cast your ballot for your all-time favorite hotels, cruises, resorts, islands, and more.
Now in its 35th year, our annual Readers’ Choice Awards continues to capture the travel experiences our readers love best, from hotels and airlines to cruises and islands. Plus: Odes to the properties that keep you coming back, meditations on beloved cities, and more. The numbers prove what we already knew: Enthusiasm for travel has never been higher, as demonstrated by the nearly quarter of a million of you who filled out this year’s survey.
In the spirit of revisiting old haunts and discovering exciting new places, you made perennial Lowcountry favorite Hilton Head Island your top American pick and relative unknown Fernando de Noronha, in Brazil, your No. 1 in Central and South America. Here are the best islands in the world, as voted by Traveler readers.
