Nice resort. A bit dated. Decent food offerings.
We loved the property and food and staff except for two issues. 1. In room internet was 1990s dial up speed when it wasn’t down altogether. Yes after 4 days they offered a room change but after we have settled in for our 10 day stay this was not appealing. For the annoyance they did send a $14 bottle of domestic sparkling wine as an apology. As they, like most hotels seem to do these days, have a resort fee that includes internet there is an expectation that the internet would be functional. 2. As I checked in at the front desk I found my king room was not available and we instead were offered a queen double. A couple at the next clerkmover were having the same issue. Through some confusion the hotel front desk did not have the rooming list for the conference I was at and the person at check in made us feel like lying criminals. One of the conference organizers had to come to the check in desk after 45 minutes of stalemate to fix the issue.
Wonderful experience for our honeymoon. Everyone was extremely nice, helpful, friendly. Recommend to all friends and family
The hotel is at amazing location. We got to enjoy the Orchid 'Gold' experience. Excellent customer service! Highly recommended :)
I've stayed many times before, and I love the hotel! Great location, great staff, beautiful landscaping, spacious, clean room. My only complaint is about the rising prices overall. This was especially felt at the on site restaurants. A very basic lunch cost up to $75, not what I normally like to pay for lunch!

Housekeeping was fantastic. Resort was beautiful. Pool was great. Food was amazing.
We stayed the week of New Years and loved our room, the property and the restaurants. Everyone was so nice and the facilities were lovely. We want to book our same room for next year!
For a hotel if this quality and price I was very disappointed they don’t have a hospitality suite/services. They used to and apparrently discontinued this (have stayed here multiple times before). Many departing flights from Hawaii are evening flights so guests stay at the pool/beach/restaurant for the afternoon before catching evening flights. Without someplace to shower off and dress it makes for an uncomfortable flight. About 5 pm there was a line of similar unhappy guests waiting to change in the single toilet stall at the pool (without a shower). I will try a different hotel next time.
We were fortunate and pleased to be upgraded to Fairmont Gold. We appreciated the extra amenities and attention from staff. The property is older but very well maintained. The group party areas were pleasant and made for a good evening.
