Home base? The Shangri-La (because you don't change a winning team), it’s only a 15 minute ride from the airport and it’s a safe bet. Ideal for escaping Hong Kong’s grim buildings. The blue monochrome sea and the sparkling golden Philipino sun will be awaiting you. What's the programme? Not much, and it’s all for the best. You’ll get to lounge around and make the most of your sun bed. You can start lying on your back and then on your tummy just to make sure you get an even suntan. Life is hard! You can sip “cosmos” (THE girly cocktail) as the sun sets and let yourself be tempted by grilled fish for dinner. Of course, you shouldn’t go home without indulging in a massage by the sea. Oh yes we'll say it again: life is so hard! If you have enough energy left as well a pair of sea legs, you can set sail for the day and visit the surrounding heavenly islands. What else?
