Hi folks

I am looking for ideas of where to go for Christmas holidays somewhere in Asia or Auz.

Thinking of 7 nights max towards the end of Dec.

We have travelled extensively in Asia but are looking for ideas/suggestions from the folks in this forum.

Ideally, we would like a short city break with a beach holiday to chill out.

Thoughts so far have been Chiang Mai (but might be too cold then), Cebu (hotels look tacky), Bali ( been there to many times), Langkawi ( again, been there 3-4 times) etc.

We were homing in on Vietnam (would love to do Saigon and a beach) but have no idea where to go in Vietnam for a decent beach/resort so any recommendations highly appreciated.

The other serious option in Auz but not a city location. Again, any decent options for Auz highly appreciated e.g. where on the gold coast, Cairns etc ?

I don't want a DIY holiday so a very decent travel agent to help book would be great. All my vacations from HK so far have been booked via cathayholidays but we do not see anything exciting.

The holiday would be with our daughter so the places need to be appropriate.

Looking for a price range of about HKD30-40k for all 3 of us.

thanks
