FAIRMONT ORCHID, BIG ISLAND

Discover Extraordinary Adventures at Fairmont Orchid, Hawaii’s Luxury Haven

LUXURIOUS OCEANFRONT RESORT

Indulge in Diverse Wonders at Fairmont Orchid

From the Orchid you can go from sun worshipping on the beach to star gazing on a snow-clad mountain. From fishing Hawaiian-style to watching turtles on the beach.

Beneath your feet, the sand is jet black. Basking beside you is a green sea turtle. You’re on Punaluu Black Sand Beach, close to the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, just a couple of hours from the Fairmont Orchid on Big Island. Along the road is another geological oddity – a beach with fine green sand, actually powdered lava known as olivate.

But weirdly coloured sand isn’t the only surprise in store if stay at the Fairmont Orchid on your luxury, tailor-made holiday to Hawaii. You can also experience floating yoga, or learn how to make a lei. You can fish from traditional canoes and visit petroglyph fields. You can go scuba diving or snorkelling, hike to see ancient caves and work your way through a choice of six fine restaurants.

“THREE HOLIDAYS IN AND STILL HIGHLY RECOMMEDED”

Dan Mills organised perfectly a challenging itinerary to incorporate a wedding we were attending in Kathmandu. A fantastic balance of trekking, rafting, safari, sightseeing and R&R. This was our third holiday with Ultimate Travel and we cannot recommend highly enough

“FAULTLESS AND FUN”

We’ve just returned from a Danube cruise with Douglas Skeggs and Joanna Worsley, with a few days in Vienna beforehand – all brilliantly overseen by Emily. From meet and greet at the airport to every detail on board the Amadeus Cara, the organisation was seamless. We’re already looking forward to our next Escorted Tour with The Ultimate Travel Company.

“SEAMLESSLY ORGANISED, TRULY UNFORGETTABLE”

The itinerary was spot on. Claire really listened and understood the kind of holiday I wanted – from the hotels to the pace of the trip. The team on the ground were exceptional: friendly, efficient, and always one step ahead, helping with everything from flight check-ins to tax-free procedures at the end. The guides were knowledgeable and genuinely helpful. I had an amazing time. Thank you!
