I think it's all about execution. I liked surfing on the desert in Nier Automata and the music was absurdly grand, as Nier Automata tends to be.
The snow areas in Xenoblade and Xenoblade 2 had a grand sense of verticality and being able to travel to that tall mountain/ruin in the distance.
... uh. I have no defense for sewers. I suppose the first time through the future sewers in Chrono Trigger had a bunch of cute SNES gimmicks. The save point making a sound to alert enemies was pretty wicked.

Poison areas aren't usually that enjoyable. Just replayed Farron Keep in Dark Souls 3 and the poison status isn't that bad, but it's just kind of a nuisance.
Stressful under water environments. If you're going to limit my mobility and control options, then just let me swim peacefully. I don't know why sooo many games made it a point to make the water levels some of the most stressful parts when the environment SHOULD clearly elicit peace and calm.
I don't like sewers generally. They're such an uninteresting and overdone environment. I also don't generally like poisonous swamps, or any shallow watery area which limits your movement.
I like snowy areas though, and I usually like underwater areas too. I wish move levels would try to replicate 40 Fathoms from Tomb Raider 2, where you felt really isolated and pressurised (pun not intended). It was an incredibly tense and unsettling level.

Dark dungeons/sewers/caverns. They're usually just uninteresting to navigate and explore.
That and 'dreamscapes' or dreamlike sequences & environments.

I might just play that area with a walkthrough. My arachnophobia is so bad lol.
Big cities in RPGs/open world games
It's just too much for me. I can't cope with all the things to do.

Grass levels are extremely overused, especially as opening worlds. They're so boring and bland and predictable
This.
Swamps too.
I hate multi-storey car parks.
Churches, it full of benches.
Sci fi mall looking areas.
I don't think this one has been mentioned yet, but
Being inside something (or someone). As in inside their guts.
Like being in the riftworm in Gears 2
nasty ass shit
The only exception I'll make is Bowser's Inside Story because that game is amazing and hilarious. Plus it's stylized so much that it's not disgusting-looking.

Snow, except on RDR2, factory/industrial areas (that's why i can deal with games like The Surge) and generic caves.
