Universal Orlando, Orlando
Universal's Cabana Bay Beach Resort
Retro fun with big pools, a bowling alley and family suites, within walking distance of the parks.
About the hotel
Cabana Bay is a playful nod to 1950s and 60s American motels, all bright colours, neon signs and vintage cars parked by the door. It sits within walking distance of the Universal parks and right beside Volcano Bay water park. It is a great value choice for families and groups who want an on-site Universal hotel with lots going on, without the price of the grander resorts.
Standard rooms sleep four, and family suites sleep six, with a kitchenette and a separate bedroom area for the children. There is a food court with plenty of choice and poolside bars. Two large pools, a lazy river and a waterslide fill the afternoons, and there is a bowling alley for the evenings. Guests get early entry to the parks, with buses or a walking path there.
Rooms
Standard rooms for up to four and family suites for up to six with a kitchenette.
