It's my birthday on new years eve and this time its serious - I'm turning 30!

I'm looking for ideas of something/somewhere to do/go as I may well have left it too late to book something interesting.

at this stage I have no clear plan or restrictions. if I can find something good for a reasonable price I am sure I can drum up a dozen or more friends to join in. I often holiday to weird places with a large group so renting something grand for the week is possible - cost dependent.

uk or abroad, the cooler/more interesting the better, capped at £300 pp (3nights minimum preferred) for travel & accom. should be a good starting point.

all suggestions welcome!

How about Venice in winter?...I have always wanted to try it off season.......

if you want to go far go to Rajasthan.desert climate in India and very cheap once you get there. Stay in somewhere like Jaisalmer and it will be fifty quid a night for clean accommodation.....

india is an idea. earlier in the year I was thinking japan with the OH but its crazy expensive for nye and I'm now single.

my friends vary from very well paid to not at all, so I need to decide whether to pitch a 'holiday' or '2 nights of excess' deal.

I'll look at india definitely, certainly anywhere where celebrations have a local flavour get the thumbs-up.
