Singapore may be surrounded by beaches and has all-year round sunny weather, but when it comes to holiday destinations, travellers still can't get enough of the three S's - sun, sand and sea. <\/p>\n
In Yahoo's 2014 Year in Review (YIR), its users in Singapore kept Maldives, Boracay and Langkawi high on its list of most searched destinations. <\/p>\n
Thailand - a popular vacation spot for Singaporeans - saw its famed beaches Krabi and Phuket appearing in the list at fifth and eighth spot respectively. <\/p>\n
Phuket also had its share of celebrity visitors in 2014 when US reality stars The Kardashians filmed a few episodes of their show in and around the island. <\/p>\n
Next-door neighbour Malaysia also bagged three spots on the list. Penang, a city known for good food and culture, edged into the ranking by taking the 10th spot, while Langkawi was named third most-searched destination. <\/p>\n
Genting Highlands - a popular family-friendly entertainment spot - took the fourth place after Langkawi. <\/p>\n
Despite Gili Trawangan being named TripAdvisor's most affordable island in South-east Asia, its sister island of Boracay - known for its pristine white beaches - was the only holiday spot in Philippines that appeared in the ranking. <\/p>\n
The farthest vacation spot to be ranked in this list is Santorini in Greece. <\/p>\n
Known for its breathtaking sunsets and white-washed architecture, the Grecian town is not only a must-visit beach town but also became a top choice for wedding photo-shoots due to social media influencers such as Malaysian blogger Cheesie. <\/p>\n
