Should I Stay at Loews Sapphire Falls Resort?

Loews Sapphire Falls Resort is ideal for families or couples who want to stay a little closer to the magic of the Universal Studios theme parks, and who would prefer not to walk back to the hotel at the end of a busy day.

In this video, you’ll learn all about why guests love staying here.

Transportation and Dining Options

There are multiple dining options, with table service or counter service style restaurants to choose from. 24 hour room service is also offered.

My favourite thing to eat at this resort is the Buttermilk Chicken Fingers at Strong Water Tavern. The dish includes three large buttermilk chicken chunks, potato wedges, coleslaw and Buffalo wing sauce, all for about ten bucks! I’m convinced it’s one of the best values for food at Universal Orlando Resort.
