Located close to Universal Studios, but had to drop off handicapped guest at hotel since I had to drive awhile for parking, but no charge with room key. The line to check in was long and no way to do it online. The front desk brought extra towels to room.

Family fun at Cabana Bay!
Always a fun, nostalgic family vibe at Cabana Bay!! We love the conveniences like the free shuttle to the parks with early admission, the grab-n-go food and Starbucks on site. Great for kids with its bonfires for s'mores, arcade, bowling alley etc. I love the tvs playing vintage commercials. Rooms are clean, comfy no frills.

After coming from staying at a Disney property, Cabana Bay Resort was somewhat disappointing. First off, you have to pay extra for every little thing it seems, from parking to pool rafts! The shower barely had any water pressure, and the walls are paper thin, as we listened to our neighbors late at night and early in the morning. Otherwise, the room was clean and the property grounds were nice with the restaurants and pools!

I love this property because it really brings out the kid in me. However, it is overpriced with nothing, NOTHING included in the price. You pay additional for everything and the prices are a bit higher than you need for a property near universal with shuttles. However, it is beautiful, very convenient to Volcano Bay and has some nice on property amenities.

The pillow's excessive softness renders it uncomfortable. The shower's water pressure is inadequately low, resulting in a slippery bath floor that led to my daughter's fall, causing harm to her arms and buttocks. A far-from-satisfactory experience.

Great location, pools close at 10:00 pm which was great. I’d say the only thing I didn’t like was that hotel staff didn’t come into the room everyday to clean, we stayed 4 days and they only came in once and late at like 4:00 pm when we came back from the pool ready to shower. Also no crazy unexpected fees, only thing you have to pay for is daily parking. Id say good place to stay with family overall.

There are no safety rails on the bathroom. The buildings are not clearly marked. They did not provide washcloths.
