Our take
This hotel is an excellent choice for families with children of all ages, especially those planning to visit multiple Orlando theme parks. The free shuttle service to Universal Orlando, Walt Disney World Resort, and Epic Universe simplifies logistics, making it ideal for a slides-focused holiday. The spacious family suites and the indoor/outdoor pool cater to diverse needs, ensuring comfort and entertainment. However, families primarily focused on SeaWorld might need to arrange alternative transport, as the shuttle does not serve this park.
- ✓Book your stay well in advance, especially during school holidays, to secure your preferred suite and ensure shuttle availability for peak park days.
- ✓Plan your park days around the shuttle schedule to maximize your time on the slides and minimize waiting. Check the latest timings upon arrival.
- ✓Consider bringing snacks and drinks for the kids to enjoy in your suite, especially after a long day at the water park, for a quick refuel before dinner.
