This property has multiple dining options, including a very large dining hall that has full breakfast, lunch, and dinner options. There are definitely healthier, delicious options which is nice to have on vacation. There is a Starbucks on location as well (no mobile order option however, lines are very long in the AM). So convenient. Shuttles to and from the Universal locations very frequently. Or you can take the walking path from the resort which takes approx. 17 minutes to Universal CityWalk and you can skip the long security lines to get into the park (our little hack), they have their own small security when you arrive to the end of the path. Our room was clean, quiet and exactly what my 2 kids (15 and 10) and I needed to relax and unwind in. The pool area and lazy river were lovely. My suggestion would be to go down at 9am to grab chairs if you want to have a pool day, it can get very busy as the day goes on. This resort really has just about every amenity that you may need, of course you are paying resort prices but that is to be expected. I would definitely stay here again!

The customer service is great! Close to Volcano Bay and transportation to City Walk and Park was easy and convenient and came often. We loved our stay. The only thing we found the dining options food wasn’t great and quite pricey. However, city Walk is close and instacart is another option for food

Had to request housekeeping even though they told us they clean every 2 days. The second time they “cleaned” they only half made the beds and left the coverlet on the floor and only replaced towels.

The overall look and atmosphere of the place was great and organized. However after checking in we went up to our suite and quickly noticed that the room was not as appealing as the compound. Our bedding smelled like urine and the rest of the room was ok in the cleanliness department.
