The rooms are newly redone and are so beautiful and thoughtful. The Gold experience made us feel like royalty, although I would think it would maybe include some parking perks or pool perks. The grounds of the hotel were outstanding. First time I ever thought - I would travel specifically to stay at another fairmont hotel. ##### Jennifer Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John Nov 12, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Sam and Kabbel were just great! ##### John Stayed 6 nights in Nov 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Julie Sep 13, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The property is on a secluded beach about a half hour from Kona. The Gold Orchid Lounge was really nice and included breakfast and appetizers as well as juice, coffee and water. Most of the staff were excellent. The bed was very comfortable. The beach was a great place to watch sunset. It is close to Blue Hawaiian helicopter tours. We tried the restaurant Brown’s beach house. The ambiance with live music was nice. ##### Julie Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jennifer Dec 13, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The staff were wonderful as usual. The continental breakfast had a good selection of food and beverages. The evening canapés were fine for dinner for us. Having food available in the lounge was convenient and helped us make the most of our days. The beach was also great for stargazing. ##### Jennifer Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mark Sep 29, 2023 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It was a magical experience-beautiful gardens, first class service, areas to walk and great snorkling right on the property. The most amazing hospitality ever! We will be back! ##### Mark Stayed 6 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David Jan 11, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Fairmont Gold at Kona is an an outstanding venue. People are trained, courteous and efficient. The price-value relationship is a winner. Comment, the beautiful tile floor in the shower was so slick neither my wife nor I dared use the shower. We are both healthy by the way, wanted to stay that way. A simple synthetic shower mat would be all that would have been needed. ##### David Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Roee Sep 1, 2025 I stayed at the Fairmont Orchid Gold and left very disappointed. I paid over $1,000 per night expecting a true luxury experience, but the reality was far from it. The rooms are extremely standard, nothing special at all. They advertise them as “renovated,” but honestly, they look average and unimpressive. For this price point, I expected something far more modern, comfortable, and unique. Service across the hotel was also not what you would expect from a so-called world-class resort. Most of the staff did not seem very attentive or welcoming. It often felt like guests were an afterthought rather than the priority. The only exception was Laura at the Gold Front Desk, who was outstanding. She was professional, warm, and truly helpful. Unfortunately, one great employee doesn’t make up for the lack of service overall. Yes, the property itself is nice, but it is nowhere near what the hotel’s reputation and marketing suggest. It is not the level of luxury or service you would expect for the money charged. Bottom line: This hotel is overpriced for what it offers. It is okay at best, but definitely not worth the premium. I left feeling like I wasted a lot of money on an experience that was just average. ##### Roee Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michelle Sep 25, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Fantastic vacation on Kona The property was gorgeous and the views of the water were spectacular. We had an ocean view room that was worth the upgrade, and the beachside restaurants took full advantage of the views. We paid extra for the Gold package and the service was outstanding. Staff were friendly, helpful, and timely the making sure the breakfast, snacks, and evening appetizers were set up. Fitness center was top notch and concierge services at the resort made some high quality recommendations that saved us time and resulted in a great experience. The location of the resort in the Mauna Lani area near Kona is close to shopping and restaurants but far enough away that the grounds are serene and peaceful. Highly recommend the property and the upgrade to the Gold package. ##### Michelle Stayed 6 nights in Sep 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Hanspeter Oct 25, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities They charge for everything ##### Hanspeter Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Jul 9, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I really liked the personal attention. The grounds flowers waterfalls and beach view is just beautiful. I didn't think the air conditioner was strong enough and the water pressure in the shower needed improvement. Also the beach needs umbrellas set up for the loungers.Overall wonderful hotel and property. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brigham Jul 14, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The Fairmont Orchid is a lovely property, well groomed with waterfalls, koi ponds and beautiful flowers and trees all around. At night we fell asleep to the waterfall, in the morning we woke to birdsong. The staff was wonderful and attentive. Learning our names and engaging with us. Having the Gold experience provided us with a more dedicated concierge team, breakfast and canape which was all fresh prepared, local and delicious. Among the Gold experience staff, we engaged a lot with Samuel, Kacia and Lisa who all ensured our stay was relaxing and enjoyable. We look forward to returning to Hawaii and the Fairmont Orchid. ##### Brigham Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Yating Jul 5, 2024 Liked: Property conditions & facilities We stayed at Fairmont Orchid Gold for six nights as a family and the services we have received were exceptional. Although we had to wait a bit for our room to be ready, we were able to relax and enjoy refreshments at the Gold lounge. Due to some complications we encountered we got a free upgrade to a suite with ocean view which made our stay even more comfortable. The hotel property ground is amazing with beautiful landscapes at every corner. The private beach with a cove made swimming and snorkeling in the ocean very safe and enjoyable particularly when you have younger kids. We enjoyed delicious breakfast and evening refreshments every day at the gold lounge and all service members were extremely courteous and have us very useful suggestions on where to visit. Overall we love our stay at Fairmont orchid and will definitely come back in future! ##### Yating Stayed 6 nights in Jun 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Castle Kama'ole Sands](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Castle-Kamaole-Sands.h21083.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Kauai Wailua Bay, HI](https://www.expedia.ca/Lihue-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Kauai-Wailua-Bay.h25719.Hotel-Information) > > [Maui Beach Vacation Club](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Maui-Beach-Vacation-Club.h2457.Hotel-Information) > > [Maui Coast Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Maui-Coast-Hotel.h28645.Hotel-Information) > > [Maui Kamaole - Maui Condo & Home](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Maui-Kamaole-Maui-Condo-Home.h101693.Hotel-Information) > > [Maui Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Kahului-Hotels-Maui-Beach-Hotel.h18554.Hotel-Information) > > [Sugar Beach Resort - Maui Condo & Home](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Sugar-Beach-Resort-Maui-Condo-Home.h101695.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Resort Lanai](https://www.expedia.ca/Lanai-City-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Resort-Lanai.h2980.Hotel-Information) > > [Aston Maui Hill](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Aston-Maui-Hill.h24554.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairway Villas Waikoloa by OUTRIGGER](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Fairway-Villas-Waikoloa-By-OUTRIGGER.h914142.Hotel-Information) > > [Courtyard by Marriott Oahu North Shore](https://www.expedia.ca/Laie-Hotels-Courtyard-By-Marriott-Oahu-North-Shore.h9727677.Hotel-Information) > > [Maui Banyan Vacation Club](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Maui-Banyan-Vacation-Club.h4593014.Hotel-Information) > > [Aston at the Maui Banyan](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Aston-At-The-Maui-Banyan.h22568.Hotel-Information) > > [Lahaina Shores](https://www.expedia.ca/Lahaina-Hotels-Lahaina-Shores-Beach-Resort.h84901.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club Kings’ Land Waikoloa](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Kings-Land-By-Hilton-Grand-Vacations.h2303745.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club Maui Bay Villas](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Maui-Bay-Villas-By-Hilton-Grand-Vacations.h3001.Hotel-Information) > > [Waimea Plantation Cottages, a Coast Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Waimea-Hotels-Waimea-Plantation-Cottages.h52880.Hotel-Information) > > [OUTRIGGER Kauaʻi Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Lihue-Hotels-OUTRIGGER-Kauai-Beach-Resort-Spa.h583022.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Waikoloa Village](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Hilton-Waikoloa-Village.h19640.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club Ocean Tower Waikoloa Village](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Ocean-Tower-By-Hilton-Grand-Vacations.h28763131.Hotel-Information) > > [Kauai Beach Villas](https://www.expedia.ca/Lihue-Hotels-Kauai-Beach-Villas.h12774848.Hotel-Information) > > [Hanalei Bay Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Princeville-Hotels-Hanalei-Bay-Resort.h460385.Hotel-Information) > > [Club Wyndham Bali Hai Villas](https://www.expedia.ca/Princeville-Hotels-Club-Wyndham-Bali-Hai-Villas.h1744108.Hotel-Information) > > [Gingerhill Farm Retreat](https://www.expedia.ca/Kealakekua-Hotels-Gingerhill-Farm-Retreat.h36076994.Hotel-Information) > > [Hana-Maui Resort, a Destination by Hyatt Residence](https://www.expedia.ca/Hana-Hotels-Hana-Maui-Resort.h933.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott's Kaua'i Beach Club](https://www.expedia.ca/Lihue-Hotels-Marriotts-Kauai-Beach-Club.h1767377.Hotel-Information) > > [The Royal Sonesta Kaua'i Resort Lihue](https://www.expedia.ca/Lihue-Hotels-Royal-Sonesta-Kauai-Resort-Lihue.h8373.Hotel-Information) > > [Waikoloa Beach Marriott Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Waikoloa-Beach-Marriott-Resort-Spa.h22600.Hotel-Information) > > [Kamaole Sands - Maui Condo & Home](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Kamaole-Sands-Maui-Condo-Home.h1097073.Hotel-Information)
