    Of all the hotels at Disney and Universal, Sapphire Falls is our go to favorite for all around quality, value, theming, service, and amenities. In general, we have always found the Lowe’s/Universal hotels to be better than the Disney hotels when we compare quality, amenities, and value. Lowe’s knows the hotel business.

    We just came back from our second stay at Cabana Bay with a Volcano Bay view room and while we're both also huge Disney fans, Universal's competitive pricing is really, really making it hard for us to justify Disney hotel prices, just because you get so much more for your money at Universal.

    I stayed at Surfside last winter and was blown away. Beautiful, clean, and best of all CHEAP! Since it was a ‘value’ resort, I stayed in the 1 bedroom, living room/kitchenette which had 3 queen sized beds. And it was only $160 a night. The only downside to that universal hotel was there was no hot tub! Huge pool, ginormous pool area that could fit like 15 hot tubs, but there was no hot tub.

You showing me what to expect, cuts the anxiety in half, and that is one of the many things I do to manage my anxiety. Lots of prep work, research, making lists and exposure therapy. Thank you so much Molly. I watch you and Jackie from Super Enthused. Both of you ladies have made my vacation in October possible. I wouldn't have been able to fathom it. Love your videos!!

    I have stayed at Cabana Bay for a week and would cross the road to Sapphire Falls almost everyday to catch the boat to the parks. I like the theming of Cabana Bay better, price is better and as Molly said, if I would pay more, I would invest in Royal Pacific and enjoy express pass.

Your main source to getting to the parks is to either take the boat, or use the walkway. Learned that from a Team Member when I was there.
