What guests think

At Summer Bay Orlando by Exploria Resorts, travellers praise the family friendly setup with multiple heated pools and on site activities, spacious condo style units with kitchens, and a convenient location near restaurants and theme parks.

Many highlight friendly staff and quick maintenance, plus handy shuttles within the property and to grocery stores or parks. Common drawbacks include dated furnishings, occasional cleanliness or pest issues, limited housekeeping, slow or unresponsive phones, and restricted or lengthy park shuttles; some also mention pushy timeshare pitches and pool chair shortages. Expect spacious, activity rich stays best suited to families who don’t mind a condo style setup and occasional service delays.

Facilities

Multiple heated pools, mini golf, zip line and rock wall, arcade, lake activities, and on‑property shuttles make it very family friendly. Downsides include limited park shuttle schedules, occasional amenity closures or maintenance, and not enough pool seating at busy times.

Overall the stay at Exploria was comfortable. Only thing I would point out is that they kindly offer shuttles to both Disney and Universal which is very helpful. However it is a shared service across several hotels so it takes about 1 to 1.5 hours to get to the parks in the morning due to all the hotel pick ups. Would love to have known this ahead of time. Also the shuttles get full fast and you may not get a seat.

Great location, lots of things to do on property. The two bedroom condo was very spacious and plenty of room for the four of us. The pools were heated however the splash pad water park at Buccaneer Bay was not. The zip lining was very cool and my boys loved it they went multiple times. Decent food at the Kahuna Bar and Grill, sometimes service was a bit slow with only one person working the bar and food area. My only major complaint is that the marina was closed three of the days we were there so we were not able to rent jet skis when we wanted to.

Where was all the amenities they stated they had. The property needs major work. I stayed there once before years ago and loved it. Came back and it was nothing for kids to really do. They had 2 pools a kiddie pool/splash pad that half worked. It’s over hyped.

They decided to paint the main pool deck on sunday which was a huge inconvenience leaving little to no seating available as well as not being able to use the pool lift for my mother to get in and out the pool. As well as there are far too many masquitos in the area there must be some pesticides or something that can be done. Other than that family had a very nice time.

It’s a nice property with many things for families to do such as mini putt, basketball court, entertainment space and swimming pools. If you need anything, you have to keep calling front desk for it as they only provide housekeeping every seven days. Some times it’s easier to go to the front and pick up what you need instead of waiting for them to drop It off. The only drawback is if you plan on going to Disney or universal studios the shuttle service they provide isn’t one that is ideal. It only has one time slot to go to the parks and one slot to come back. If you don’t plan on visiting the parks then this is a good property to stay on.

There were lots of restaurants nearby. There was Kobe, Cava, Chipotle, Outback, Cracker Barrel, etc. stores to grab groceries and items you may have forgotten like Target, Walmart, Aldi, and Public. Our rooms were cute and clean. We had several pools, an arcade, pickle ball quarts, jet skis, etc. We were impressed.

We love this property so much. We had a bunch of things to do with the children. The only thing I would say is that it’s very dirty in your villa. The rugs are disgusting. They make your feet black at the bottom. The sink and tub area and like the floor part could’ve definitely been cleaned a lot better especially if you have one of the Jacuzzi’s. It’s all dusty in between. But other than that overall it’s a great resort. Just a cleaning needs to be better.

We found dirty dishes in dish washer, we also had a dirty diaper in the dining room. We had 5 people so needed couch bed, had to call for blankets, pillows and sheets. Blankets were ugly old blankets, no sheets for mattress. Staff took forever to do anything and not all our keys worked. Took over a hour to wait in line to check in and girl was doing the best she could but you really couldn't ask many questions as people waiting forever behind us too. employees at Buccaneer park were just rude. We have been visiting park since the year of the sinkhole over 20 years ago and this is the worst visit ever. My now grown son was eager to show his sons all the great times he had, lake was advertised with floating devices in water but nothing but 3 jet skies and 2 paddle boats which nobody was ever there to rent from. Imagine walking in to a dirty nasty diaper and dirty dishes when we wanted to eat. We left our dirty dishes in machine and barely cleaned up just the way we found it.

1. WiFi Quality: The WiFi connectivity was poor and needs improvement. 2. Room Access Assistance: It would be helpful to have golf cart facilities and staff assistance during check-in to help guests find their rooms quickly. 3. Welcome Drink: Offering a welcome drink upon arrival would be a nice touch. 4. Guest Comfort After Travel: Small gestures like welcome drinks and prompt room guidance would greatly enhance the guest experience, especially after a long drive or journey.

We had a wonderful time!! The resort is lovely. I love the fact that they have so many pools, so you don’t have to worry about it being too crowded. The only negative things I would say is my room was a little outdated, it could use some upgrades and my bed was a little uncomfortable. My body was sore every morning. Otherwise it was tons of fun! Even with the two negative things, I would still stay again.

My only complaint would be the check in process this year because the employee that checked us in wasn’t very friendly or personable and made us feel like we were bothering her by having her do her job BUT we refused to let that put a damper on our trip and we enjoyed every last minute of it!! Paul at the Tiki Bar is wonderful and every other employer we encountered was very polite and helpful. We will be back next summer for sure!!!

They are under staffed, check in takes a long time . Their software seems like outdated because they couldn’t even find my Expedia reservation, a lot trouble checking in then the room key didn’t work, I had to go to my brothers house in the middle of the night because I couldn’t get into my room. Next day i came back to try to get into my room so I could check out and catch my flight and still , no even security could get in , after a lot of aggravation , they opened the door. There was not even anyone that cares or apologized for anything. I would never recommend this place .

Our issue was that we were in Orlando to visit the Theme Parks and it took over 40 minutes to get to Universal Studios, SeaWorld, and Disney - not the 15-20 min as advertised. The shuttle offered by the resort operates on a very limited schedule, so we ended up taking an Uber every day which worked well but wasn't what I had expected and added $$ to the trip.

It's got a nice kitchen area, but realize that there isn't cleaning service during your stay, so guests need to make beds and clean-up after themselves. I recommend Summer Bay.
