HAWAII The Fairmont Orchid has a
history of enchanting couples with its gorgeous ocean views, private
white-sand beach, wide, secluded hammocks and luxurious guest rooms. The
enchantment continues with the Romantic Getaway Package for 2004.
The pampering begins at the Kona International Airport, where the couple
is picked up by limousine and transported to The Fairmont Orchid. During
their stay, the couple will enjoy a romantic dinner for two; a sumptuous
breakfast buffet for two daily; two oceanside massages; two Activities
Passes (providing unlimited access to the hotel’s best ocean, fitness,
cultural and wellness offerings); two keepsake bathrobes and a special
welcome amenity. But that’s not all. The Fairmont Orchid fuels
love’s fires with a "Make Room for Romance" amenity-a
turndown service that literally lives up to its name. After their
romantic dinner or perhaps following sunset massages, the couple will
return to their room. They’ll follow a trail of orchid petals leading
from the door to their king-sized bed, where the blooms are seductively
arranged in a heart shape upon the top sheet. A bucket of ice-cold
champagne and two glasses are within easy reach. Two cotton bath robes
are positioned on the bed (easily cast aside), and two pairs of bedroom
slippers are placed beside the bed on a slipper mat. Pele, Hawaii’s
flirtatious volcano goddess, would certainly approve. And when it’s
time to return home, a limousine will transport the couple back to the
airport-a fitting finish to a perfectly romantic escape. The Romantic
Getaway starts at $549 per night for a Fairmont room, has a four-night
minimum requirement, and is subject to availability. The package is
available Jan. 5, 2004 through Dec. 25, 2004, and can be booked online
