According to the internet, September is one of their rainiest months of the year, but a good holiday there can still be had, usually with a short heavy shower in the afternoon and it still being warm.

Does anyone have any experience of this?

Due to me changing jobs, the only week off the GF and I can get that coincides is in mid September.

Does anyone have a suggestion for a sunny warm September destination?
 
Thanks for sharing your experiences folks, I want to take her somewhere warm outside Europe, but money is fairly tight. It's a compromise but it sounds like a good holiday there can still be had.

Have you looked at Vietnam, we managed a decent holiday there for 10 days in 2015 when we didn't have a great deal to spend and i'd say it's better than Thailand in almost every way.

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll certainly check out Vietnam. I also had a look at holidays in Komodo national park, and ended up being directed to some general holidays in Bali, the cheapest being about 2k for 2 people, but I didn't check if that included us being fed.

Regarding Vietnam, is it fairly westernised outside the capital? My only experience of the east is 3 weeks in Cambodia 4 years ago, which I really enjoyed, but it's a developing country and I know that my GF wouldn't have liked it there.
 
Update:

Ended up booking 11 nights in Bali at a beach called Nusa Dua in mid September. It's dearer than my original budget and has wiped out my work bonus but hopefully will be mainly dry.
