This is a high quality resort. The pool is large and easily accessible. There was a high wind advisory so no umbrellas . It was too windy for the beach chairs had selected the option for pool . . Check in was very easy and quick. The staff at the beach hut were very accommodating and even moved the lounge chairs to shade since no umbrellas could be used. The only drawback was the waitstaff. We were told we would have service but no one ever approached us for orders. We went to the pool bar and beach restaurant to get food and drinks. For that reason we give 4 instead the f 5 stars. Would do this again However for four or more people it is probably better just to book a stay.

This is a terrific way to “treat” yourself! You need to evaluate what’s if beach or pool are more important. We chose beach and even though it was windy, we had the best time! Highly recommend resortpass and we will do it again!

Enjoyed it! Would be nice to be able to upgrade online to cabana or covered loungers as well. Beautiful view- food was just so so but hey it’s hawaii! Beer was flat

The resort and service was great. I only wish when we booked the beach day pass we would have known it did not include a covered beach chair and that was an additional $65 on top of the $50 day charge. This information should have been included in the booking.

We had an amazing time at the Fairmont Orchid. Three of us spent our last day on the Big Island enjoying the pools, ocean and hot tub . The grounds are beautiful: the bar food was quite good —fresh fish tacos for $22. Beautiful sunset too. For sure one of the best expenditures we’ve made lately!

Very lovely property. The beach area is large with limited shade available. Good for beginner snorkeling and children. Restaurant between the pool and beach area is very casual and good. Lots of things to rent—cabana chairs, kayak, paddle boards and snorkel gear.

As soon as we arrived the front desk had everything already for us and we spent a great day by the pool and beach. Very private location and great staff

Beautiful beach and relaxed pool environment. Lots to explore!

Our daycation at the Fairmont Orchid was perfection. The grounds are gorgeous and immaculate. The beach looked great, calm bay with easy sandy access, but we stayed at the pool. It was relaxing with comfortable lounge chairs and great towels! Weird to say but we liked them. Friendly poolside bar and food service. Prices were high but typical for a high end resort. My in-laws live in Hilo where it’s rainy a lot do this was a great getaway for the day. Hot and sunny!

Went to the fairmont orchid and it was beautiful! Such great service! Totally worth it!
