Universal's Cabana Bay Beach Resort

👍

Couldn’t recommend cabana bay more. Great facilities, from food and drink options to the amazing pools with always being able to get beds. The walk to volcano bay is so quick and also walking to city walk is super easy. Would highly recommend staying here for the price point. The only small downside is the car parking charge (if you have a car) but with the transport to the parks it does even it out to not have to pay to park at the parks.

Food was not the best but everything else was amazing. Shuttles were convenient, pool was clean and warm.

Needs a good painting on the interior of the room and bathroom. Hallways specifically. Up grade the carpet it it musty smelling. Everything else was really good.

The Thunderbird wing of Cabana Bay was perfect for us: quick access to the walking path to IOA for EPA, easy access to the smaller pool (with the water slide, not the lazy river), and still very close to the lobby for walk-through (cool!) access to and from the park buses. We could not figure out the "quick access" to the boats at nearby Sapphire Falls, but that might be on us...we were tired from a long day of travel! In general, everything at Universal Orland Resort was much closer together than we expected, and very easy to navigate. Cabana Bay enhanced our experience, and was a great place for our first on-property stay at Universal!
