It would be Mallorca for me if the property was cheaper.
Very low crime rate, excellent infrastructure and communications. Guaranteed sunshine.
Luckily all the lobster-red Brits only visit a tiny section of the island, the rest of it is beautiful.

I'd go but the misses wants to stay for family reasons, I just hope we have the means to do it sometime in the future for my daughters sake as the future looks bleak for the UK.
A little island between Vancouver and Seattle would be nice, I'd need a power boat for work mind.
I have a brother in Alberta (Edmonton) and we go every other year and we all love it there. Though I quite like the idea of an island off the cost of Vancouver too!

When you leave, they ban you from coming back for as long as you've overstayed (if it's significant).
