Fairmont Orchid is a truly beautiful setting. The resort grounds and property are very well laid out and maintained. Flowers and plants are gorgeous. Our room was a partial ocean view with balcony and it was great.
The food was good but quite pricey, and service was slow.All restaurants and lounges were wonderful, except the Brown’s restaurant. Food good, but it had tables in sand/gravel which was uncomfortable to walk on and gets in your shoes too much. They should remove it and use tile or something. And we sat out close to the ocean which was great for a view but it was very windy and chilly, necessitating a jacket or they offered towels to wrap around you. That needs some improvement!
But every staff member was polite, professional, cheerful, and helpful. Our room was clean every day just perfectly, and Solvy the housekeeper, and the pool food service guy, Kai, were superb.
Overall, the resort rates very highly!! Definitely coming back!!
