Feb 23: BKK (0615 flight on 24th to DPS so need to be close to airport)

Feb 24: DPS. Leaning towards Kuta as I do a little surfing and want to relax on the beach

Feb 27,28: HKG. Looking to to touristy activities in HKG so I want to be in the heart of the city, centralized for this type of activity.

Mar 4,5,6: Tokyo. Wide open for Japan...100% tourist/personal time. I'm open to suggestions.


SPG properties are preferred for BKK, HKG and NRT/Tokyo...I'm thinking Cash+Pts will be the way I go with most bookings, whenever possible.

A big thanks in advance for those who can share their expertise with me!
As has been mentioned at least once so far, Pattaya is not a typical tourist destination unless you're chasing prostitutes. If you're looking for a Thai beach destination, Phuket would be a no-brainer for a first trip.
