As has been mentioned, Crete is good. Maybe fly into Chania on the western side, then head south to Paliachora. Very nice area.

Kefalonia is nice too, albeit a bit pricey. Im a sucker for the Greek islands tho.

If you want to go further afield, Death Valley in California is stunning. I'd recommend staying at Furnace Creek, either the Ranch or the Hotel are amazing.
