The Fairmont orchid is a lovely, family and romantic get away. The staff couldn’t have been more friendly and helpful! I especially liked the intimate feeling of the grounds which were beautiful! I would definitely come back!

Loved this. As good as fairmont maui except less crowds. Beautiful property? Great restaurants, excellent service and better value than Maui.

This was a very special property. We’ve stayed at many resorts at many destinations over the years and can honestly say that the Fairmont Orchid is a genuine 5-star property, from the accommodations to the views and overall staff, we were very pleased. Gave it a 4 out of 5 because we felt that dining options were somewhat limited and crazy expensive. We did use the hotel shuttle to go to the local store and loaded up on snacks and sandwiches. You will be happy staying here. :)

Truly enjoyed outside options / ocean access.

The property was gorgeous. The daily resort fee was pretty steep considering the only non-charge amenity was free coffee from 5 AM to 6:30 AM. Our TV never worked. Luckily, we were outside enjoying all Kona has to offer.

Beautiful property, but our room was just ok. Needed updating and the bathroom door knob needed to be fixed. The food options at the hotel were also average. But great drinks. We ate most of our meals off property. We’d stay again, but make sure we get an updated room next time.

Beautiful place! The only advice I have for the resort is to offer a la carte options for breakfast at the restaurant

The staff and property were amazing. My best friend and I went there for my 50th and they really gave us white glove service upgrading our room, champaign, birthday cake, and plenty of the staff all around the property were just so genuinely interested in making it a great experience for us. I so enjoyed that this island is not packed like the others. It is low key. I can't wait to go back!

We had a hiccup with our original accommodation, but the Fairmont staff turned what could have been a stressful situation into a magical experience. From the moment we arrived, the team went above and beyond, ensuring every detail of our stay was perfect. Their warmth and friendliness truly made us feel like we were at home.
The hotel itself is stunning, but it was the people who made our visit unforgettable. In fact, we were so taken by the exceptional service and ambiance that we decided to spend most of our time at the hotel, soaking in the beauty and enjoying the luxurious amenities, rather than exploring the island as initially planned.
If you're looking for a place that combines elegance with heartfelt hospitality, the Fairmont on Big Island is the perfect choice. We can't wait to return!

The property was heavenly.
They should re-evaluate the cost of snacks ( $9 for half a papaya is just plain silly).

Gorgeous property, but most staff was rude and visibly annoyed with any requests for assistance. Food & drinks in the lobby lounge was average at best. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and very nice. The grounds were beautiful with running streams, waterfalls, and large pool.

The property is currently undergoing maintenance. Rooms are dated and therefore not worth the price we paid. Service overall was not that great except for a handful of very hardworking and pleasant staff. Food was pricey which was true for most hotel restaurants in that region. All of the extra costs (from tennis, beach rentals etc.)around the property quickly add-up. The private beach was nice and the pool was decent. May come back in the future if service improves and the rooms are in better condition. Overall quite disappointed.

It was our first time staying here. We were blown away by the service. They sent us a bottle of champagne for our anniversary. Upon arrival they also sent gifts for our little ones. The spa was amazing too. The service, food, location, room, and property were all excellent. We will definitely come back.

We had a great stay at the Fairmont Orchid. Stayed for week and ate somewhere new each day- lots of dining options on property and within walking distance. A highlight was the staffer Matthew- he popped up everywhere and was so knowledgeable, patient and kind. He was our guide on a canoe trip we took, he guided us on a “turtle talk” walk and he is the one who lights all the tiki torches and blows the conch at sunset. My kids learned a lot from him during the turtle talk and canoe trip- I highly recommend those resort excursions. The beach and lagoon area was awesome and so was the pool. The food was incredible. Great trip overall!
