Save your money

John_J, Feb 2024

Wouldn't do this again, save your money. Ordered 4 almost $200, no scent, not worth it. Vendor was not at bottom of escalator for brother's arrival as promised

Would not recommend, Go to Walmart and buy one for $20.

Denise_P, Nov 2023

Way to much money to be handed a Lei and sent on your way. Came down stairs saw a printed sign with one name paid for two. Sign was just a piece of paper with name.

Highly recommend

Deana_M, Jul 2023

This was our first visit to Maui. The leis were beautiful and fresh! The host was incredibly helpful and friendly. She told us how to make our leis last several days. She also showed us where to go for our rental car shuttle. Highly recommend!

Go For It!

Jason_P, Jul 2023

Beautiful Lei, right there where they said they would be. Out of the whole plane only one other couple was greeted making me feel special! Nice way to start out our Hawaiian vacation.

Cajuns come to Hawaii

Candice_S, Jul 2023

It was absolutely wonderful!! They made us feel very special. I surprised all the others on my trip and they were so grateful.

Great experience

Candy_H, Jun 2023

Thank you so much! Greeter was waiting for us as we came down escalator to baggage claim. Was my granddaughters first trip to Hawaii and we all loved the fresh lei greeting!

Extremely Beautiful and Great Experience

Patricia_R, Jun 2023

We are extremely happy that our lei’s were waiting for us with our guest host! THANK YOU for changing our reservation and surprising us because we didn’t know if we were going to receive our lei’s since we were a day late in arriving to Maui, due to air plane troubles in Ft. Worth, TX. The lei’s are extremely beautiful and such a great experience. Family Vacation 2023 is off to a GREAT start!!

Good but not great.

TEJAS_T, May 2023

It's good, but little bit pricey compared to the $ spent and the service received. The person was great in greeting and giving directions but not worth $100 though, may be $40-50 I would say.

Amazing service

Tony_F, Apr 2023

Our flight landed roughly a half hour late, but the experience was still really great! My wife was very happy for her first time visiting Hawaii.

Fresh

Darla_A, Apr 2023

Fresh beautiful lei’s and friendly, Happy greetings. Will do again one day. I highly recommend this. My son was so surprised and enjoyed the welcoming spirit.

This was such a great...

Anna_W, Mar 2023

This was such a great experience! They were very nice and greeted us with smiles. This was such a great start to our honeymoon.

Surprise ruined

Cindie_T, Mar 2023

I really did not want to write a bad review but I was honestly bummed with them. I’m on my honeymoon and I was surprising my husband with the lei and the sign since it was his first time in Maui. I was excited for his reaction but when we arrived I didn’t see our name. There were many people there with signs so I walked around to see if I saw our names. I thought maybe if we walked towards the baggage claim we would see them. I even went back to the same area without my husband to see if I could find the person with our leis and still didn’t find them. I messaged them and they said they were there. So I came back towards them and still no luck. Finally I got a call and the lady with our leis found us. She was holding the wrong name on the sign. It did not go as I planned it especially because we were in a crowd of people trying to grab their luggages. And the surprised was ruin. The experience wasn’t great. I know people make mistakes and I hope no one else has this type of experience with them.

AMAZING!! Orchid Greeting

Michael_S, Feb 2023

Our experience was AMAZING!!! I wished I would have asked our greeters name, but he was the BEST! This was an amazing first experience for the beginning of our trip and one our daughter will never forget. I will recommend this experience to anyone visiting Maui and will continue to book for our next trips back.

Fun vacation with my...

Ella, Dec 2022

Fun vacation with my husband without kids Welcoming us is very very cool We love the Lei, so beautiful

Great surprise with a friendly company.

Carrie_E, Nov 2022

When we were telling our daughter we were coming to Hawaii, she kept saying she couldn’t wait to get off the plane and get her lei. When we explained it was only on TV like that she was bummed. Until I found Orchid Airport Lei Greeting. We were able to surprise her and she was thrilled. The young man that greeted us was so sweet and kind.

Not good

GEANA_S, Nov 2022

No one at the airport was there, I can only assume they don’t know how to read arrival boards But that’s life no stress just disappointed

Maui vacation

Martin_V, Oct 2022

It was exciting to see the greeter with our welcome sign with our names on it and the greeter was very knowledgeable and kind and helpful she was awesome

Wife Loved IT

Andrew_G, Sep 2022

The Lei’s were beautiful and my wife really enjoyed the surprise as we came down the stairs and saw her name on the board.

Very Disappointed

Bonnie_W, Sep 2022

Worst outing we had there was 4 ladies but no one had a paper with their name on welcoming them to Hawaii but me and it just had my name nothing about welcome to Hawaii. And no one took us to the baggage center he only pointed which was very disappointing. So no I would not suggest this to anyone unless they want to be very disappointed

Perfect start to my solo trip

Samantha_C, Sep 2022

I was met at baggage claim by the prettiest, sweetest lady who was holding a sign with my name, she placed my Lei on me and gave me information on where to collect my bags and where to meet my Uber driver. Super friendly and very very helpful. 10/10!!
