The Fairmont Orchid Hawaii's most extravagant feature is the Spa Without Walls--a series of open-air massage houses located by streams, waterfalls, the ocean, and the tropical gardens. The spa menu includes massage and beauty treatments. This resort also offers an extensive excursion program. From botanical tours, snorkeling, surfing, and fitness classes to Hawaiian arts and crafts classes, the Fairmont Orchid Activity Package can provide guests with the tours and equipment of their choice (for a fee). Those that wish to get the blood pumping onsite may plunge into the 10,000 square foot swimming pool and lava whirlpools, or work on their game on one of the 10 tennis courts. Be sure not to miss the sea turtles, swimming ashore each afternoon. Other amenities include a business center, secretarial services, cell phone rentals, babysitting services, gift shops, laundry services, parking (for a fee), safe deposit boxes, and a 24-hour resort shuttle. Dining options include island cuisine at Brown's Beach House, fine-dining at the Grill, breakfast at the Orchid Court, and Norio's Sushi Bar and Restaurant.
