Sneak Peek at Cabana Bay Beach Resort, Opening in March at Universal Studios in Orlando

View of Cabana Bay Resort construction from my 7th floor hotel room at the Loews Royal Pacific.

The Cabana Bay Beach Resort, the fourth hotel within the Universal Orlando Resort that is centered around featuring moderately priced family suites. The resort will open 900 of its planned 1,800 rooms on March 31st, 2014. The rooms will be 430-sq.ft. and can comfortably sleep six people with two queen beds and a queen pull-out sofa bed. There’s even a small kitchenette and a bathroom area that partitions the toilet from the sink and the sink from the shower which is especially helpful when all six of you are trying to get ready for you day at the parks.

For a limited time, the whole family can experience Cabana Bay Beach Resort’s new family suites with rates starting at $104 per night for a seven-night stay to $134 per night for a three-night stay. Offering up to 47 percent savings off regular prices, this introductory offer is available now for purchase for stays from March 31 to June 14, 2014. Full details are below.

Cabana Bay Resort is a completely family-friendly resort so no need to worry about the kids keeping on a certain area of the two amazing pools, or making sure you leave the 10-lane bowling alley at a certain time.
Speaking of the pools – one is a 10,000-square-foot, zero-entry pool with a 100-foot water slide, waterfall features, sand and a 4,000-square-foot interactive play area. Cabanas will be available to guests for rent, and lounge chairs will ring the deck, backed by zones for sunning, game playing, picnicking or relaxing on the grass. The other pool complex will feature a lazy river experience, a first for the Universal Orlando Resort hotels

As you see from the outside when you drive up and the lobby area, all the rooms and suites will feature a retro 1950s and 1960s design, meant to invoke the family resorts and motels of yesteryear. You’ll still experience the modern amenities and services that you expect including WiFi and flat-screen TVs.

Combining affordability with convenience, the hotel’s location is within walking distance of both Universal Studios Florida and Universal’s Islands of Adventure. Plus, hotel guests enjoy Early Park Admission to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter one hour before the theme park opens.
