Very clean and lots to do. Very close to everything to include the amusement parks. Only problem i had was that they never leave any washcloth in the room. Every morning I had to get up and go find the cleaning cart or I would go into the staff only laundry closet and get my own. I do not bathe with my hands thank you.

Can't say enough about how wonderful it is to stay at Cabana Bay. Top-notch services and amenities at a family-friendly price. Property is impeccably maintained. We stayed on the 4th floor of the Starlight building and the walkways, walls and lights were clean and not loaded with bugs. Did have difficulty using my room key to access our parking lot several times. Absolutely our favorite place to stay in Orlando.

The property is a cute 1960’s style retro beach vibe. It’s a cute, fun style. Our room was a suite with a mini kitchen/living room. It was comfortable and clean. This room has some minor maintenance problems.. like a lamp that has a wiring issue and a tv remote that won’t work, but overall super cute! I hope they keep up on the maintenance to keep this property nice for a long time!

Took too long to check in but I did not book through your website…next time I will book on Cabana Beach resort website. The gate by my building from the parking area was broken when we checked in but got fixed the night before we left. I was satisfied that it was fixed pretty fast. I will be staying again!!! Excellent service from everyone on the property especially the cleaning crew on 5300 floor during my stay.

We usually love staying at Cabana Bay - it's convenient to theme parks with plenty to do on our "rest" days. Normally we stay on a high floor with a Volcano Bay view. That didn't happen this time, although I thought we had booked it as such. We were in the tower facing Volcano Bay on the fourth floor - basically our view was of the backside of the park. While we don't normally mind noise, there was a heavy machinery backing up beeping taking place for literal hours well past 1 am. We would stay here again - the resort is fantastic for the money - but definitely not on the Continental side or on a lower floor.

Nice resort! Love the easy walk to Volcano Bay! I was able to print out my Universal Express tickets at the help desk —very convenient!! The free shuttle to Islands of Adventure is great! Pool area is fun, but they no longer play the movies where you can view them from the pool :-( …tried to make a bowling reservation two weeks in advance and it was all booked! Diner area is spacious, but wish they had a few more healthier food options.

Get away to Orlando.
We had our 2 year old grandson with us and it was perfect!! The beach pool, lazy river, and water fountain play pad for toddlers made it the best place for us!!! The shuttle to universal was so convenient and a large food court for meals made it a one stop stay. I would recommend this fun place for any families on a vaca to the universal area of Orlando!

This is 4th or 5th time staying here for Halloween Horror Nights. Disappointed they did not have a theme room this year. If you are looking for quiet, skip this one. Otherwise great lower priced Universal hotel. Great staff, late night treats and family oriented.
