Rejuvenate Your Inner Mana (Power) on the Big Island, Hawaii for Six Days & Five Nights at the Fairmont Orchid, Hawaii with Economy Class Air for Two, Including a Hawaii Volcano Adventure and a $500 Fairmont Gift Card for Spa Services
Warm your soul with new memories yet to be made throughout your stay at this gorgeous luxury Hawaiian resort! Nestled on 32 oceanfront acres, the island oasis of The Fairmont Orchid offers you everything you need to make your stay in Hawaii one to remember, from succulent dining to tranquil accommodations, an award-winning 36-hole championship golf course, and blissful luxury in all the details. During your stay in paradise, make time to pamper yourself with the Hawaiian-inspired treatments in the award-winning Spa Without Walls, and to enjoy the wonders of Hawaii, including the flowing lava of volcanoes on your narrated tour!
The Big Island, regarded as the pinnacle of playgrounds, a land of uncommon beauty, startling diversity, and welcome weather, has much to offer the spirited traveler. Beachside, you’ll meet the native Hawaiian Green Sea Turtles that bask on the shoreline every afternoon. Or discover island-style fun and culture as you paddle an outrigger canoe, hike through the largest petroglyph field in the Pacific, learn to weave a coconut leaf basket and more guided by the Orchid Beachboys.
The Fairmont Orchid, Hawaii offers guests an exotic blend of the essence of Aloha with the relaxed, tropical spirit that is Hawaii. The resort’s oli (Hawaiian song) speaks to the aromatic fragrance of laua‘e (fern) and puakenikeni (flowers), of ocean spray at Pauoa Bay and the beckoning coconut trees. You too can discover these treasures in your own space and time at the resort’s award-winning spa. Centered within the safety of four dormant volcanoes (Hualalai, Mauna Loa, Mauna Kea on Hawaii Island and Haleakala on Maui) and the impressive Kohala mountain range to the north, the resort and spa blend elegance, comfort and Hawaiian style that captures the mana (power) of the island. Choose from eight outdoor waterfall hale (huts) built above the flowing waters of cascading streams and ponds, six oceanfront cabanas under the palm trees amid white coral and black lava, or three 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.
Your narrated Volcano Adventure features a hike over the lava flow that covered the village of Kalapana and famous Kaimu black sand beach in the 1980s, a tour of Hilo along Banyan Drive, views of glorious waterfalls, a visit to the Thurston Lava Tube and Kilauea Iki Crater, and a trip to a colorful anthurium and orchid nursery where you will discover exotic blooms. No matter what you seek, the islands have it all!
