As a family of 5 it is not always easy to find accommodation without booking two rooms. Cabana bay was perfect for us, plenty of room in the room. Excellent facilities on site, plenty of stuff do on the hotel site when wanting a few hours away from the park. Would return in a heartbeat

Wonderful property for the price. Shuttle service to amusement parks were great. Everything was great, but housekeeping woke us up 3 times too early on checkout day even with the Do Not Disturb card on the door. Just a little annoying. All in All…. Great experience.

Great location and lobby. Inside the rooms could use a bit of updating. Parking is really far away and unfortunately when it rains everything shuts down. Lobby staff were REALLY NICE and helpful. The check in line is a long wait but the front desk staff if very efficient, they just need more people at the counter
Verified review

8/10 Very good

We had a great time. The shuttle to and from the parks was perfect for us. The resort needs some upgrades. Like paint and new carpets. I own a cleaning service and for the most part it was clean but didn’t smell clean and fresh like a resort should. I would probably stay again just for the convenience of restaurants, Starbucks, lazy river and the pools.
