    It was so awesome meeting you guys yesterday! You guys are very nice people. When you stay here you'll love the room (even the non-fancy top room one Jenn keeps pointing to). My wife and I actually had just came down from the room when we bumped into you guys outside the door to the water taxis. Should've shown you how they styled the rooms instead of you guys just getting a hallway shot. Anyways thanks for the videos and making us experts while we're here on vacation!

  • @savannahhendrickson685
    @savannahhendrickson685 7 лет назад

    We stayed there and really enjoyed it. Especially the water taxi. The breakfast was delicious! Expensive. It was $35 each for the buffet with our 10% discount. The room was $200 for Florida residents with premier passes. The bathrooms were underwhelming small showers and nothing that made it stand apart. The cabana bay was the same price and we loved it when we stayed there a few years ago. Much cooler and the rooms were bigger and had more theme. However no water taxi. Never did the pools so I can't comment on them. Also the parking garage is a bummer since you have to pay per night even with a premier pass when universal parking is free.
    P.s. I told my husband the same thing Jen! I wanted the pink couch.

  • @moonstonepearl21
    @moonstonepearl21 8 лет назад

    Yea modern Caribbean sounds like a good way to describe this hotel to me. It has a really sophisticated look on the inside and such a beautiful and relaxing water are on the outside. It would be a perfect place to just sit out there and watch the waterfall and/or read or play a video game or something like that. Perfect relaxation spot when the weather's nicer and not 2 billion degrees.

  • @mvol5973
    @mvol5973 8 лет назад +1

    Just got back from here this morning after staying the week. Hotel is nice looking and very clean. Everything is pricey as hell though, breakfast without the package is $21.99 per person per day, a beer at the bar will run you $8 and a half shot will cost you starting $15. Water taxi is nice and convenient, however be advised if they see a rain cloud they shut it down so you could find yourself walking back...guess they are afraid of the boats getting wet.

  • @christianwilhite3979
    @christianwilhite3979 8 лет назад

    This is fantastic. What a gorgeous hotel. It's so relaxed, so chill. I think, for opening day, things went pretty well. That line to check in was fierce, for sure, but considering there are *1,000 guest rooms*, I guess that is to be expected.
    I can't wait to see inside the guest rooms! Do you guys think you'll get into one before Halloween?

  • @xoleeleen
    @xoleeleen 8 лет назад

    It definitely looks like a hotel in a Caribbean setting. We have plenty of resorts here similar to Sapphire Falls, in the Caribbean. Modern but still retaining things to our culture, like food, etc. This one looks nearly identical to one we have here, but instead of boats in the water there's kayaks and stuff.

  • @FireCracker3240
    @FireCracker3240 8 лет назад

    Oh, by the way, in case anyone is interested. I just went to their website and did a basic search for the end of July. The rates ranged between $249 for a standard double through $529 for a Kids suite. And, of course, seemingly more on the weekends/high volume occupancy dates.
    Apparently, the longer you stay, the less it is per night. Also, perks include the free shuttle along with early entrance (1 hour) to Unversal.

    I don't understand why they would open the resort when it's not completely finished. What a terrible first impression. That's like going to a new restaurant and only getting 50% of what's on the menu. Maybe it's just me and I expect more from a destination resort. It looks nice though!

      syntaxlies82 The Expo part wasn't complete, the lights weren't working around the pathways, etc. It's details like those that make your stay better.

    • @syntaxlies82
      @syntaxlies82 8 лет назад +3

      +Michael Warbux the conference center doesn't make anyone's trip better unless you have business being in there. If you don't want to see construction then just don't go to Florida because there is always construction going on. As for the lights and whatever the ect. Stuff is I guess they should have just canceled everyone's reservations and told them to go home because they don't want to make a bad first impression. Honestly my first impression is I can't believe this hotel is budget, because it's stunning. That's me though.
