From the Magic Kingdom to magical spa treatments, Orlando sparkles with the promise of adventure. Spend a day exploring the world-famous Disney theme parks, giggling with the dolphins at SeaWorld, or screaming your head off on a Universal Studios roller coaster. For a less adrenaline-pumping afternoon, enjoy the quiet natural beauty of the Harry P. Leu Gardens, or enjoy a seaweed scrub at a luxury day spa. Savor fresh and local ingredients at one of Orlando’s James Beard-nominated restaurants.

The best experiences were in Universal's Island of Adventure! So many character meet and greets, awesome rides for all ages, the food is delicious and large portions, and the customer service is top notch! Hulk is incredible, my son loved Spiderman so much he rode it 4 times in a row - the water rides were perfect to cool down on, and everything is so clean!! Best time and highly recommend!

Water is Life. Life is Joy. That's the philosophy celebrated at Universal's Volcano Bay™ water theme park. It's the carefree attitude the fabled Waturi islanders have embraced on their Pacific isle for centuries. Now you can live the Waturi way at this all-new park where thrills and relaxation flow in perfect harmony.

Our first visit to Volcano Bay, great waterpark with some fantastic rides, we were staying a Cabana Bay so waterpark is just a 5 min walk from the hotel and you get early entry an hour before other guests, this makes a massive difference as you get the pick of the sun beds and you can do most of the big rides before any one else arrives. The fast last river is fantastic. If I had any criticism would be that the wave pool is not as good as Typhoon Lagoon
