Honokohau Holidays from AU$2,685

Close to most of everything we wanted to do

This property or should I say land was way more then expected. It’s private, secluded and overall just beautiful. if your looking for a real taste, feel, site, peace and privacy of the island with immaculate views this is the ying to your yang. This is a real retreat with real beautiful souls from the island that host here. They are kind caring & respectful and cool as f*** here! Me & my husband spent our honeymoon here we’re a union in our early 30s looking for some peaceful us time & we definitely found it here! if u want to travel near by resorts for a commercial feel u can do that with a car but even if you don’t have a car the people here so helpful u will never feel lost. This is much more then a vacation it’s a second home !!!! 5 stars

This property was really nice and close so that you could walk to restaurants and stores. Very clean and quiet. Only two suggestions....1. Update pillows and possibly mattress. 2. New procedure to open gates and doors is a 6 digit code. This is to help with security. But kids has access to the grounds and also can reach over the door and open it without the code. Not as secure as it should be.

The property was fine and I love the location. I knocked a couple stars off for two reasons. 1. What they consider a "partial ocean view" might not be what they think it means. Standing on my balcony and peering over the railing to see a sliver of bay is not, in my opinion, a partial ocean view. 2. Noisy! This is room dependent. My "partial ocean view" room overlooked the valet parking, loading dock, and outdoor dining area. Apparently the hotel loads up on supplies at 4am in the Hawaii time. 18 wheelers in reverse make that classic beep, beep, beep. Too much for my single paned, sliding patio door to block out. People on east coast time apparently like to eat at the buffet at 6am Hawaii time. Once again clank, clank, clank of the plates and glasses. Very jarring noises to my ears. Now you may ask, why didn't I request a room change. Well I did, but the hotel was full and they couldn't accomodate until my trip was half over. Now I would ask, "why did they assign me such a room in the first place?" I'm not sure. I arrived promptly at 3pm and it wasn't like I got the last room left. The resort charged $30 per day self parking and $35/day for services I didn't use and wifi that did not work. Apparently, I could have paid even more for better wifi. I declined that as my phone service was adequate. When I checked out of the hotel with my valid concerns, staff was having none of it. No concessions or refunds allowed!

We had a wonderful time at the Fairmont Orchid. Then when our flight home was cancelled for 2 days the staff bent over backwards to accommodate us for the additional 2 nights that we hadn’t reserved. A
