Great family vacation with things to do (toddlers, less than 5)?

Where would you take toddlers on vacation if you DON'T want to just stick them in the Kid's Day Care but you do want a resort, beach, warm weather, attractions, etc.?

We were looking at Atlantis in the Bahamas because of the water slides, aquarium, etc. but it is too far away from California. I'm thinking Florida at the furthest, Texas? Hawaii? S. California? Mexico??

Specific resorts please.
Sorry, should have been more clear; those are just suggested regions to vacation. Question is, what resort is good for toddlers, has beaches, pools and things to do?

1. Living in FL, I can tell you it would be the perfect family vacation. You can do the theme parks, take a day or 2 to go to the beach, go to Disney, Sea World, Universal, Wet & Wild, and in March Sea World will be opening their new water park called Aquatica (pretty cool!).

2. San Diego is awesome - of course, I live here so I'm biased. But there's LegoLand, the San Diego Zoo, Sea World, the Wild Animal Park, and Disneyland just an hour or so north of here. There are also tons of beaches - some with playground equipment.

Have fun wherever you go!

3. For Hawaii, on the Big Island, there's the Hilton Waikaloa. I think that's where they have dolphins.
On Oahu, there's many to choose from as long as you're in the Waikiki area. That's where the beach is (of course) and many tourist attractions.
Maui's a great place to go also, unfortunately I don't know the specifics on the resorts.

4. My kids love LegoLand in San Diego as well as well as the San Diego Zoo and Sea World.
