3 Great Reasons to Stay On Site at Universal Orlando Resort
I wouldn’t consider a visit to Universal Studios Florida or Universal’s Islands of Adventure without a reservation to stay on site at Universal Orlando Resort. After reading this post, you won’t, either!
Universal Studios in Orlando is really its own destination. With three theme parks and Universal CityWalk entertainment and dining complex, there’s so much for families to do when they visit. Quite often, clients will inquire about heading here during their Florida vacation. Most frequently, they want to see The Wizarding World of Harry Potter. When I show them all there is to offer at Universal Orlando Resort, they usually decide to stay for a few days. There are so many reasons that I recommend my clients stay on site at Universal Orlando Resort. Here are three of the top reasons.
Top 3 Reasons to Stay On Site at Universal Orlando Resort
Stay Close to the Theme Parks
When guests stay on site at the Universal Orlando Resort, the theme parks are, in many cases, right outside their door. There are three premier hotels that are within walking distance to the theme parks. Additional properties offer transportation by bus or, my favourite, water taxi, from the hotel to the theme parks. At the end of a fun and busy day, there’s nothing like being able to take a short walk back to your hotel room.
Keep it Simple
Once you’ve arrived at your Universal Orlando Resort hotel, there’s nothing to worry about! All of your dining, recreation, relaxation and transportation is handled for you.
