Hey Travellers,
We are back again with another Resort Review, this time for Loews Sapphire Falls Resort at Universal Orlando.
Resort Name: Loews Sapphire Falls Resort
Overview: From the stone turret in the lobby to the inviting charm of each room and suite, you’re surrounded by a vivid and textured haven that is inspired by landmarks of the islands. Blue waterfalls cascade over lush grounds and in the distance, the calming sounds of steel drums call you to take in the scenic views, ease into island time and let go. Amid the beach area, palm trees and pool you’ll find Caribbean-themed dining options, including a contemporary watering hole offering rare vintage rums.
Resort Type: Preferred Resort
Room Type: Standard Room with 2 Double Beds
One building or Multiple: One Building with multiple wings.
Quick Service Locations: New Dutch Trading Co (Choose from craft sandwiches, freshly brewed coffee, pastries and more at this port shop).
Drhum Club Kantine (Located poolside, Drhum Club Kantine offers a delightful menu focusing on fresh seafood and taste-tempting tropical drinks).
Table Service Dining Location: Amatista Cookhouse, Strong Water Tavern. We dined at Strong Water Tavern and the tapas style food was incredible. Make sure you try their Tequenos, you will not regret it!
Transportation Options: This Preferred hotel provides complimentary water taxis, shuttle buses and walking paths around the resort. So it’s just a quick hop to Universal Studios Florida, Universal’s Islands of Adventure, Universal’s Volcano Bay and Universal CityWalk.When you stay here, you’re incredibly close to the thrills and relaxation of Universal’s water theme park, Volcano Bay. Walking paths connect your hotel to this tropical paradise.
Pools: Sapphire Falls has a 16,000-square-foot pool with a sand beach, hot tub, cabanas (for rent), water slide, children’s play area, fire pit and more! You truly feel like you are in an Island Paradise when you stay at this resort.
Exciting Extras: Enjoy Early Park Admission* to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter™ up to one hour before the parks open (valid theme park admission required).This means you’ll get to explore a quieter Wizarding World and find some adventure on the themed rides! When you stay at Sapphire Falls Resort you will also get resort-wide charging privileges using your room key card so you don’t need to carry around a wallet with you. This also allows you to be carefree and carry-free when you shop at select stores in Universal’s theme parks and CityWalk. They will deliver your purchases directly to your hotel, free of charge!
Our Takeaways: This resort is truly one of our favourites. You cannot beat the location and the rooms are very bright and airy. We loved being able to hop on the boat to the theme parks and the short walk to Volcano Bay.
