I've never been to Destin, but from what I've heard it's a pretty trashy tourist trap.  It's like the butthole of Florida.

Vegas is fun...for like 3 days, and then it just makes you wanna go home.  Regardless, I've been to Vegas 3 straight years and will be there again this coming March.  We have a blast for a few days and then head off to one of the nearby national parks.  Zion and Grand Canyon are only a few hours away, and both are worth a vacation on their own.  The fast times of Vegas are balanced out by the slow times of the parks.

New Orleans is cool. I was there this summer for work for a couple of days.  It seemed like I might get tired of it after those couple of days though.  The food, culture, music, and architecture are all great, but the city still seems like a novelty that would get old quick.  You can find some solid beaches within a couple hours' distance though, so if you diversify your vacation, you'll probably have a great time.
