Universal's Cabana Bay Beach Resort

As part of the Universal Orlando Resort family (and sister property to Loews Sapphire Falls Resort at Universal Orlando), Universal’s Cabana Bay Resort keeps the perks coming. It’s the only property in the portfolio that offers kitchenettes, making it easier for large groups to save on meals—but note that in-room dining is limited. At the food court, insiders favor the brisket grilled cheese and Brazilian churrasco. Cabana is the only portfolio property that is not pet-friendly (sorry, Frodo!) and lacks a business center service. In sum, Cabana Bay Resort has family fun vacation written all over it: The colors are bright, and the signage is bold. Everyone in the group can keep busy thanks to a bowling alley, lazy river, game room, fitness center, kids club and a bustling pool area with waterslides.
