Doubt you could go to Thailand even if you wanted to at this point.
Try the Philippines, Cebu or Boracay weather will be better there anyway as its rainy season in Thailand now.
A whole month, you're either very lucky or a laid off investment banker.........
Have a great time!

Next time try the Phillippines. Cebu is pretty awful, but we went one year to Mindoro Island, near Puerto Galera. it was the most beautiful place I've been.

Bohol is my favourite, one hour's ferry from Cebu. The most tranquil place I have ever visited. Clear water and white sands - perfect for diving, snorkeling and some great food by the beach. Oh yes, massage for 60 minutes by government authorised masseuse at an unbelievable price of 200 pesos !!

philippines without a doubt, unless you enjoy political spats! my favorite place in the phils is cebu. and cebu is whatever you wish to make of it. if you wish to hire a driver and discover sensational beaches, mountains etc. it is there. if you want to find a wonderful island with little or no inhabitants; you can. if diving is your drug, you are going to be in heaven. for more info on cebu: http://cebulifestyles.com if you want to stay cheap try: http://sdrapartments.com (large 36.5 sqm + rooms, free internet, kitchens, close to golf, beaches, malls, airport etc. and HKD375 per night) if you want to go up market (think secluded, luxury try: http:abacaresort.com) no matter what, cebu is a surprise packet for those that want something different. oh yes, did i mention the people! awesome and very accommodating.
