Big Island, Hawaii

View the Vibrant Colors of Hawaii at Sunset on the Big Island, Hawaii for Six Days & Five Nights at the Fairmont Orchid, Hawaii, Including a Historical Sunset Cruise, and a $500 Fairmont Gift Card for Spa Services (Land Only)

Warm your soul with new memories yet to be made during your stay at the gorgeous Fairmont Orchid Resort, which is nestled on 32 oceanfront acres, creating an island oasis that offers you tranquil accommodations, succulent dining, an award-winning spa and an award-winning 45-hole championship golf course! During your stay in paradise, make time to enjoy the wonders of Hawaii, from Mauna Kea's winter snow-capped mountaintop to the sizzling Kilauea Volcano and tropical rainforests to a teeming undersea world, as well as your historical sunset cruise! Pamper yourself with the Hawaiian-inspired treatments in the Spa Without Walls, which blends the essence of aloha with the relaxed, tropical spirit that is Hawaiʻi.

Journey into the heart of Hawaii Island at Fairmont Orchid, a luxury oasis where the aloha spirit comes alive. This Four Diamond 32-acre luxury oceanfront resort lies along the beautiful Kohala Coast and boasts a sugar-white sandy lagoon and aquamarine waters, a year-round children's program, spa, golf, tennis, several restaurants and blissful luxury in the details. At the beach, meet the native Hawaiian Green Sea Turtles that bask along the shoreline every afternoon. The Fairmont's Hui Holokai Beach Club Ambassadors cater to your beach comforts by setting up chairs and cabanas with towels and ice water, and assisting with beach equipment rentals. Participate in a cultural hike to the nearby petroglyph field, join a group for lei-making, paddle in a Hawaiian outrigger canoe in the open ocean, try stand up paddle boarding in the bay, or jump into snorkeling adventures - the options are endless!

Fairmont Orchid's open-air Spa Without Walls invites you to recharge in either their outdoor waterfall hale (huts) built above the flowing waters of cascading streams and ponds, oceanfront cabanas under the palm trees amid white coral and black lava, or indoor treatment rooms to begin your escape. With the soothing sounds of water, the pleasant ocean breezes and the floral scent that fills the air, the treatments incorporate products from the island and integrate Hawaii's natural therapeutic environment and ancient healing arts into every experience. Rejuvenate your inner mana (power) from head to toe as the trained therapists work with you to achieve balance and calm.

Just before sunset, journey back in time when ancient, powerful Kings ruled the rugged Big Island on your sunset cruise. Set sail and see historical sites along the Kona Coast like the Ahu'ena Heiau, Pao 'Umi Point, Kuamo'o Battlefield, and the world famous Captain Cook Monument! Along the way, enjoy a cocktail and delicious pupus (hor d'oeuvres). Plus, there's always an exciting chance that you'll see spinner dolphins, sea turtles, manta rays, and if your timing is right (winter season) - the humpback whales might even come out to play!
