Hong Kong is not really set up for resort vacations. If that is an important part of your holiday, there are several options within easy reach of Hong Kong. Macau is a popular getaway, with the new Las Vegas-style hotel and casino complexes offering glitz, and the Westin Resort is a popular choice for families. The sea around Macau is coffee-coloured from the river silt though, so if you are looking for picture-postcard white sand and blue sea, your closest getaways are Hainan Island in south China, or the Philippines. If you can stretch to it, Thailand, Malaysia, and Singapore are only a three-hour flight away.
