‘Massively Friendly Atmosphere, World Class Food and Beautiful Location’

 Aloha and welcome to The Fairmont Orchid, Hawaii. Set amidst waterfalls and lush vegetation, caught between the sand and the shining sea lies The Fairmont Orchid, a 32 acre resort built at the edge of Kohala Coast. The resort embodies the spirit of Hawaii – there’s lots of fun things to try like surfing and arts and crafts, plus there’s relaxation to be had with yoga classes and the Spa Without Walls. With 6 restaurants including the award-winning Brown’s Beach House you’ll never go hungry. And for that little added extra, there’s always the weekly lu’au where the spirit of warriors past come to life!

‘A bright, fun, tropical paradise to play in!’
