Your kind words truly mean the world to me — mahalo nui loa for taking the time to share your experience and for your incredible support of our property. It was such a pleasure to welcome you back, and I’m thrilled to hear that you had another fantastic stay with us! Your comments about the room renovations and the hospitality you experienced truly warm my heart, especially coming from someone with such a deep family history in the hotel industry. Your recognition is so meaningful, not only to me personally but to our entire team. I will be sure to share your feedback with our leadership team as well — they will be as touched as I am. If you ever have a moment, we would be incredibly grateful if you might also consider sharing a few words about your experience on Google or TripAdvisor, as it truly helps others discover the spirit of Fairmont Orchid through the eyes of wonderful guests like you. Mahalo again for being part of our ‘ohana. I truly look forward to the next time we have the pleasure of welcoming you back to your home away from home here on the Kohala Coast. With warm aloha, Barbie Nakamura Director of Quality

Robin G TripAdvisor review

Thank you so much for sharing your lovely feedback. We’re so happy to hear that your Lomi Lomi massage with Ariana was such a wonderful experience — and that the peaceful setting by the waterfall helped make it even more special. I will be sure to share your kind words with Ariana and our spa team. It means so much to know that her care and skill left such a positive impression. Recognition like yours truly inspires our team and is the heart of what we hope every guest feels during their time with us. Mahalo again for your recommendation and for allowing us to be part of your experience. We hope to welcome you back to our little piece of paradise whenever the time feels right. With warm aloha, Barbie Nakamura Director of Quality

Kelli Elyse M TripAdvisor review

Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful feedback — your kind words truly mean the world to us. We’re so happy to hear that your time at the spa made such a positive difference during your visit, especially after experiencing discomfort on your last day. I will be sure to share your thoughtful message with Iris (who is indeed a gem!) and with the entire spa team. They will be so touched to know the care, kindness, and attention they provided helped turn your experience around and allowed you to enjoy the rest of your Hawaiian getaway feeling well. Your recognition of the massage therapist will also be shared, and we’ll do our best to identify who assisted you so they can be properly acknowledged. Mahalo again for your kind words and for choosing to spend your time with us. We hope the Big Island calls you back again one day — it would be our pleasure to welcome you for another visit. With warm aloha, Barbie Nakamura Director of Quality
