"Stayed here in June and it was amazing. The staff were so nice and personable! Not too bougie at all. The amenities were amazing and I’m certain we didn’t take full advantage of them all. We’ll definitely be back."
"This property has three buildings you can stay in. We stayed in the Makai which I highly recommend. It is the building closest to their on-property luau: Legends of Hawai’i, has a great pool with a fun slide, is where the dolphin cove and lagoon are, there is a poolside bar, a grille restaurant by the lagoon, Kona coffee shop, Big Island Market for souvenirs or sunscreen, fitness center, spa, and is near the parking lot. You can request an ocean view room and you’ll be able to see the ocean and possibly the dolphin cove. The property is near two market place shops (Kings & Queens) and is convenient to the Kona airport."
"The Fairmont is likely as good of a “Resort” property as one could find. I am not a fan of Resorts, But when in Hawaii it is difficult to not stay in one. Fairmont is well presented, certainly not a value proposition, but nicely done. Good food, Bars, Pool, etc. shower in the bathtub was far better than the separate shower. Facility does need some paint and refreshing. Grounds and Location are beautiful. I like Fairmont Hotels and they are a brand I seek out, when traveling."
"Our 1st evening, we had some problems with getting food. The poolside restaurant had to close early and the bar restaurant ran out of pizza. I’m sure it was an unusual problem, but we didn’t have dinner that night coming in from a long travel day from Texas. All other meals were great, especially breakfast buffet which was outstanding."
