I have stayed over 12 times at the Orchid and love the resort. But I think I've stayed for the last time. I understand that all hotels are trying to make up for 2 years of little to no income because of COVID, but increasing the prices dramatically and charging "resort" fees is not the best business plan. Why not encourage people to come frequently and stay because it's such a great deal? $150 a day to have shade on the beach? $10 for a smoothie? $300 for a massage (and then you're asked to give a $60 tip on top!). I found the food was just Ok. Nothing overly special. Changing the Mauna Lani lounge to a (overpriced) sushi spot is a shame - it used to be the BEST spot on the island for a nice cocktail and bar food. I encountered excellent staff - two of the long standing Beach hut guys were there (reunion time) plus the lovely Emma (?) at Browns. The room I was "upgraded" to, was directly across from the beach restroom - so sitting on the lanai was not pleasant with the constant sound of toilets flushing.
we go most every year, love the property especially the lagoon and the view from the entrance and lobby bar area. Appreciate that valet parking is included. Like the adult area of the pool but it gets a bit crowded and many guests throw down a towel and personal item to grab a spot but may never show up or only use it for an hour or so. Pool needs a reboot, should go to darker colors and maybe completely separate adult areas from family areas. pool bar needs to be expanded and unable to see the tv on the western side given how the screens are mounted ; screens should be inside the roof mounted on opposite sides of the bar from the viewer.
