A - C are all fairly attractive options for me. I think I'll go with B -- nice and warm during the day and just enough of a cool off overnight while still feeling distinctly summery.

For the summer I would be very happy with option A.

I also want to say that options B and C are OK too, but I feel that B is better than C, and here's why:
-C is hotter during the day. On a day where you're not swimming, it might be too hot and unpleasant
-The nights are rather cold, especially for summer, in option C

Option A because I wouldn't want an average high much above 80F/27C. Not really bothered about night time temperatures though a small diurnal range would imply that the climate was cloudy/humid neither of which are desirable for me.

warm, humid nights. I'd love Florida for that reason. I'd be out jogging and on the beach in all hours of the night. I live jogging at 1AM.

I'd need to have AC though, but I could adapt to the heat, and always do. I have a preference for sleeping in really cold conditions though... I'd rather it be 50 degrees in the bedroom than 80. In that sense I like cold climates just for the great sleeping.

If the average is that hot already, keeping the nights cool is my priority. A high of 100F and a low of 50F sounds like a good compromise, though my ideal would be a high of 110F and a low of 40F.
