Beautiful Hotel & Location

SkiTrip123456 on Dec 16, 2025

Recently stayed here with my wife for 5 nights for a birthday trip. It is about a 30/40 minute drive from the airport. The staff is excellent and welcoming from the moment that you arrive. The rooms are spacious, clean and luxurious. The grounds at this hotel are beautiful. From the private beach to the pool & grotto style hot tub, everything is well kept. They also have two golf courses to choose from. The breakfast buffet is one of the better ones that we've seen while traveling. With an omelette bar, two rows of hot foot, cold food, fruit and dessert bar... they have something for everyone. They have a lounge/bar area on the top floor with live music and a great view of the sunset. Binchotan is a great restaurant. The more "casual" of the two main restaurants but we found their food to be incredible. Brown's Beach House is the nicer of the two and also had excellent food and service. They also have a shuttle service that can drive you a few blocks to a grocery store and other amenities. I'd recommend this hotel to anyone staying on the Big Island!

Special place

konagal (United States) on Dec 16, 2025

This was my 4th or 5th trip to the Fairmont Orchid, so I obviously enjoy the resort. What made this trip truly outstanding was a couple exceptional staff members. Elizabeth went above and beyond helping me plan this special trip with my grandchildren and Rose greeted us on arrival to be sure everything was beyond perfect. I will always be grateful to Rose and Elizabeth for their kindness and professionalism!! Due to my grandson's life threatening allergies travel is a challenge, but I will return without reservation to the Orchid. This trip created lifelong memories for my granchildren and thats what it is all about. Thank you!!
