Universal's Cabana Bay Beach Resort
Good room. Paid for a pool view upgrade, yet on the ground level so didn't get any view and had people walking past our window. I would have preferred a higher room facing the car park. Check in process was very slow. There is no resort fee, just have to pay for parking.

The Grove Resort & Water Park Orlando
The front desk was especially welcoming and always willing to answer questions and do what they could to help. The FlowRider duo of Eric and Anthony were also amazing. They were very patient while teaching my 2 sons to surf and had a ton of energy. They made that area so much fun!
