The key to luxury at a low price is to get a VISA to enter China (you can do it here at the Consulate or in Hong Kong for like $20) and goto Shen Zhen.
I personally die in heat and humidity however so I would never goto Hong Kong in the middle of summer. I've been there many times only in the Winter.
What are you looking for? You can have quite an expensive but luxurious Western experience in Hong Kong if you goto the fancy hotels like the Shangri La, etc. (high tea is amazing) or you can do it living at the Chunking Mansions (lol don't) and eat amazing street food and local restaurants, etc.
