Thanks so much for watching! We have gotten so used to staying at Disney Resorts that it was definitely different and new for us to learn about the Universal resorts and make the jump to try one out - but we absolutely loved it! If you have any other questions or can help assist in any way please let us know 😊
Terrific walking tour, guys! I've said it before and I'll say it again...I feel like we owe Cabana Bay an opportunity to redeem itself. 😂 We stayed here once and only once on a _very_ quick trip down for two nights, and had a bit of a messy experience. I'm talking a two-hour wait for check-in at 11pm, restaurants closing early, the lazy river being closed for maintenance, the sink in our room not working properly and our hot water going out...just messy. Having said that, just about everyone we've ever talked to has loved (and still loves) Cabana Bay and reveres it as the go-to resort experience at Universal and I have to believe that our rough weekend there was an anomaly. One day we'll make it back and give them another shot...but it'll probably be after we try every other resort first haha ✨ Glad you enjoyed your first Universal stay!
That definitely does not sound like a pleasant experience! Ours was overall great and we really had no hiccups or issue, so we would definitely recommend giving it another shot! But definitely understand it being hard when there are just so many good resorts - and the new ones for Epic Universe coming soon there are going to be even more options! We are definitely eyeing the Helios Grand as a dream stay 👀 Thanks so much for watching 😊
Just watched another video where you can check in online with the Universal App.😳🤙🏽Would have never known that! Wonder if that could have helped with check-in?
Wanted to say thank you for your resort tours! Not only are you super thorough, but you show everything! I am the type of person to get a little anxious about going to a new place for the first time. I am doing 1 night here and 1 night at Royal Pacific before our Disney trip next month, and you showed me everything i wanted to see, but no one else showed!
Hi Julie, thank you so much for the kind words and taking the time to leave a comment 😊 I am get a bit anxious when going places and like to know all the details as well, so whenever I’m able to cover a tour or review I try to hit those little things that people may have questions about - and I am so happy to hear that it was helpful for you and had some of the information you were looking for ☺️ We really enjoyed our stay at Cabana Bay and hope you have an amazing time! We’ve stayed at several Disney resorts, and Cabana Bay really impressed us for the price point. Hope you have the best trip ever! Thanks so much for watching 🙂
Thank you so much! We definitely like to provide as much detail as possible whenever we can 😅 some of those little things can hopefully help others be better prepared and ready! Cabana bay really is such a fantastic resort. There is so much to do for families & it has such a reasonable price point. We definitely recommend checking it out for a visit to universal! 🙌 Thanks so much for watching 😊
Thank you!!❤🙏🏼 We stayed at Margaritaville Resort a few weeks back for Spring Break, and missed being closer to Universal. Thank you for mentioning which side to stay on that’s closer to the walk there!
Of course! Hope this video was helpful ☺️ we were actually deciding between Margaritaville and Cabana Bay, but found Cabana Bay to be slightly cheaper and had the bowling alley and access to Universal and we ended up loving it. We definitely still want to stay at Margaritaville though and it looks amazing. We had never been to Universal parks before either, so it ended up working out nicely! We tried to cover the entire layout of the resort and all of the details, so is there is anything we missed or any questions you have - let us know! Thanks so much for watching 😊
What a marvelous video. You left nothing out. Thanks you for the details. Can’t wait to go in May. Have you stayed in the family suites yet? They look incredible. ❤
We have not stayed in the family suites at Cabana Bay! This was actually our first time ever staying there and we loved it. The family suites would be amazing to try sometime, definitely a goal for us to stay in some day. When you compare the price, amenities, theme, vibe, and overall value - it’s really hard to complete with Cabana Bay. One of the best options in all of Orlando, not just universal. Thanks so much for watching ☺️
We hope you have the best time and love Cabana Bay! We had such a great stay there. So happy to hear the video was helpful 😊 if you have any other questions at all, just let us know! Thanks so much for watching! ☺️
@@keepingupindisney thank you! This will be my second time ever to universal and last time I stayed at Aventura when I came with my husband in October. Can’t wait to be back!
We absolutely love the retro beach vibe that Cabana Bay has!
The vibes are great at cabana bay for sure! Retro beachy fun 🤩
Love that Cabana Bay has a lazy river
It’s such a nice little bonus! Not something you will typically find at a “value” hotel 🙌
Thanks for sharing! Trying to learn more about Universal resorts so this was helpful!

This is so in depth and I loveee it! This is perfect for families that’s looking to switch it up and do a few things outside of the parks.
