I had a lovely stay at this resort, with clean and spacious rooms that offered a great view of the nearby Volcano Bay. The family-friendly atmosphere and fun amenities like the pools and arcade were fantastic. However, I was disappointed when the cleaners entered our room early, which left a bad impression. It would have been nice to have more options at the food court as well.

I had a mixed experience at the resort. The early check-in was smooth, and the staff were friendly, making me feel welcomed right away. However, I had issues with noise disturbances at night, which definitely impacted my stay. The layout is also quite sprawling, and navigating could be a hassle at times. Overall, great facilities but some major drawbacks overshadowed the positives.

My family's stay started off rocky with a long check-in process and an embarrassing room mix-up, but the resort offers some great amenities like spacious pools and a good food court. We encountered a leak in our room, which dampened our experience, but the overall atmosphere was enjoyable. Just be prepared for a few hiccups during your stay.

Our family had a great time overall, especially enjoying the flexibility to explore both Universal and Disney. The pool area was lovely and provided a nice space to unwind. However, I was a bit disappointed with the cleanliness of some areas, particularly the elevators, which really should have been better maintained. Additionally, the food options left a lot to be desired, making it feel more like a budget hotel.
