Universal hotels are always fantastic and Cabana Bay was what I would have expected for a budget Universal hotel. I did feel a little bit downgraded from Aventura, which is a much more upscale hotel but overall I was pleased, given the current circumstances.
Shuttles to Citywalk and parks are regular and excellent, hotel itself is pretty nice and comfortable. Amenities are pretty basic.
Extremely convenient to the Universal Parks - very modern and the rooftop bar was great!
I liked the overall look and design of the hotel.
This hotel they never say the truth when you call them. I had some issues with them . They said the transaction is available in the theme parks. When we arrived, they said its not. If i knew i wouldn't go with this hotel. All the hotels provide free shuttles to the theme parks. I was so disappointed
It was great, Food is good and a healthy selection. Check in took over 30 minutes to get our key made, still not sure why but loved the shuttle and we also took the water taxi home each night to Sapphire Falls, which was nice.
I liked the option to control the room from an iPad. Most employees were nice, but some employees at the urban pantry were annoyed if you asked where the ketchup was. As if I should already know.
All good, had a great time. Staff was great, room was clean. Pillows were quite uncomfy as most other posts suggests. No real option there for folks that don't like a huge, bulky pillow. Perhaps add some more squish there. Otherwise, all good.
Great lovation. Clean room. Friendly service. Likes the techie vibe. We liked the easy access to walkway and enjoyed the scenic views along the way. Only negative...Next time we know to buy coffee at Starbucks. The eating area had really bad coffee and creamer. Room had bad coffee too.
Terrible mattress and pillows. Not sleep well after all day on the park.
The property was close to all the parks. You can literally walk over to volcano Bay as opposed to waiting for the shuttle. The shuttle to the two theme parks were just about one behind the other so there was hardly a wait. The rooms were clean view from the room was great. And not far from anything even if you wanted to get away from the madness of the parks
It had a unique atmosphere that was fun and relaxing. Great views with the floor to ceiling windows. Food options were very good and reasonably priced for families.
