Why Hong Kong? Wouldn't Tahoe or Big Sur or Bodega Bay suffice?

And your schedule sounds like too much coding and not enough sleep. Why don't you try getting 10 hours of sleep for a few weeks and see if that helps your focus at all. And longer breaks between coding sessions.

I chose Hong Kong because it's out of the country and one of the few locations I'm not particularly fond of (I've lived there for years, not much there for me). The only place I would want to go to on my day off is China, which is fun for me everytime.

I get plenty of sleep as I do now (6 hours) and sleeping in past that normally makes me feel groggy and tired. I have a very healthy schedule, with lots of small but good breaks in between my coding sessions.
