We had a fabulous stay at the Fairmont Orchid!
We had a fabulous stay at the Fairmont Orchid. We were supposed to stay at another resort on the island, but after some unexpected complications, we found ourselves without accommodations. We were grateful to be able to get a last-minute booking at the Fairmont Orchid. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly, and the property exceeded our expectations. We know this will not be our last time visiting. Thank you, Fairmont Orchid!

Everything way overly priced and activities for kids and others limited. Anything interesting they always found a way to suck money from it (ie Kayaks, etc). Also, not close enough to other life and restaurants and stuff. Would be much more interesting to stay over towards Marriott side.

It’s a beautiful property overall but I was assigned a first floor (they call it 3rd floor though) room where people walked by the sliding door all the time so there was no privacy. zero sunlight so was pretty cold all the time :(
