We loved Stella Nova. The staff were amazing. The room was clean and fresh. The food options were great. We especially liked the pool area and the outside bar. The proximity to Epic Universe was fantastic, being only a 10 minute walk - there are buses all the time too. Meaning we were able to take a break from the park in the hottest part of the day, have a nice swim at the hotel, then head back over in the evening again. I would thoroughly recommend.

This a great property but I would not stay here if I wasn't going to visit Epic universe. This is close enough that you could walk but a quick shuttle ride. I would place this hotel in the same category as Dockside and Surfside hotels. Its currently priced a little hirer then the low end hotel because its new but its nothing super crazy. If this hotel fits your price range I would book it.

The property is perfect in many ways. It’s clean, the staff was great, the rooms were comfortable. My only quibble was the dinning situation. It was a fast food only if you’re starving situation. Nothing for Vegan and GF patrons but then nothing worth noting for anyone. When you get hungry make plans. The busses are very convenient.
