The sentences would be almost identical in meaning. One subtle difference is that "Are you going somewhere hot this summer" sounds like the speaker suspects the person is leaving town this summer, and is asking where; "Are you going anywhere hot this summer" sounds like the speaker is not completely sure the person is leaving town at all, or at least not sure the person is going somewhere hot.
