Unfortunately we haven't had this opportunity but how about Hilton Head Island?It has everything that you mentioned with Savannah and Charleston as reasonably close day trips.You might need Fodorites help with the moderately priced part.

Would second Southern Arizona with Green Valley particularly geared to your activity level. It has 12 recreational centers with heated pools, tennis, bocce and racquetball courts as well as courses in photography, cards, ceramics, woodworking, etc. Most properties in GV are Green Valley Recreation deeded which allows use of any GVR facility. Renters pay a nominal fee for monthly use of all facilities. The area is also noted for golf courses. It has the Santa Rita Mountains for hiking, birding or just enjoying the sunshine and moderate climate. There are observatorys for astronomy fans, Titan Missile Museum, Caverns, Casinos, Sonoran Dessert Museum, Pima Air and Space Museum, and numerous smaller museums as well as many theater, music, art, southwest cultural, and dance offerings in the area. The Web site is greenvalleychamber.com if you would like more information. For a moderately priced location outside of US, Buenos Aires is a bargain compared to US or European vacations.

We live in Ontario Canada and faced the same dilemma about where to escape the winter climate.
Three years ago we "found" Naples Florida which met all our requirements - warm weather, great beaches, lots of golf & tennis, great shops & restaurants and a variety of cultural activities.
For us this place is "paradise".

We love Kona, Big Island, Hawaii! Can usually get good prices for multi-week condo stays.
Good weather is guaranteed, well, almost. Low 80's day after day!
Small town atmosphere, lots to do and see! We just love it!
