Talk about a great hotel for the value! I can't wait to visit again 😍
I’ve heard such amazing things about this resort and I can see why! I normally stay at the Endless Summer resorts because I can typically book a room for under $100 a night and while it doesn’t have the luxurious feeling that the higher tier ones may have; they are so clean and modern and do not feel like cheap resorts. I do want to branch out and do Sapphire and Aventura just for the more upscale vibes one day!
I want to try the Endless Summer resorts, as I've heard they are actually a great value! It seems like all of their hotels are GREAT. But definitely check out Sapphire Falls if you ever get the opportunity! It was honestly amazing, and it felt like it should have been a top tier hotel. I think the ONLY reason it's not, is because they don't include the Express Pass. And if that isn't something you don't care much about, then it's PERFECT!
yes i feel you about living near by- we live in sanford and sometimes we're like we cannn just go home lol but its nice to take advantage of the proximity to the parks and the resort amenities. its nice to be bougie and have a little staycation. Love & appreciate your video. Thank you.
Right?! Especially if you can find a nice deal like we did, it's nice to just have a little staycation once in awhile 😁 Plus, I'm a sucker for an excuse to go to a nice resort hotel haha
This is my favorite resorts at Universal! I even have the scented wax melts of this Hotel. Love it!
Such a great resort! I need to get the scent in our house, it smelled sooooo good 🤩
By far our favorite resort! We were just there two weeks ago for a week. That was our third stay. We love everything about the resort - the smell, the service, the rooms, the bed (so comfy), the pool, the location! Watching because we’re missing it so badly!
It was soooo nice 😍 I want to go back haha. We ended up buying the scent online that they use because we liked it so much. And that pool was so nice! We were shocked 😲
@@Dillon.Thomasafter watching the entire thing, I think we were there at the same time because you mentioned that Dreamworks land opened the next day. We were there for that! We too bought the scent online!😂 it’s AMAZING!
We stayed at Aventura and would walk through here every morning to the parks, totally agree about the lobby smell here, even walking through and I can remember it!
You should check out Aventura if you can, the rooftop bar is amazing at night - we saw EPCOT fireworks from there!
The rooftop at Aventura alone makes me want to go! I've found a new love for these hotels, and I feel like I want to stay at all of them to see all the differences! The lobby smell is just on another level, though haha
Fun fact - I've stayed at every Disney resort (except Grand Floridian - weird, I don't like the vibe there). I've never been to any Uni resort until this coming September when we are staying at The Hard Rock for two nights during HHN as friends are staying there.
This was a great review - thanks, I've never been there or even thought about checking it out. That is some entrance and lobby. I'm impressed by what I see as you walked around. I didn't realize that Sapphire was so close to the parks. That was some pool! Love the whole vibe down there. That staircase has Harry Potter vibes - haha, Nicole said Gringotts!
Did you know Master Tigress was waving at the camera? LOL. EXCELLENT review - looks like an awesome hotel and will definitely have to do a stay there. Be well.
Wow really?! Nicole wants us to stay at more Disney resorts to try them out, Grand Flo is one of my least anticipated resorts to stay at over at Disney for their top tier hotels. I think it's just not the theme I care that much for. Universal really impressed me with their resorts from what I've seen so far, our friend stayed in like a suite or something at Hard Rock and it was incredible! Plus... location!
Altogether, we had no idea it was going to be as nice as it was. Especially for the price. The pool was amazing, the rooms were super comfortable and new. The lobby with the smells and view were awesome. Seriously highly recommend checking it out sometime! It's the harry potter stairs for sure lol, felt like we were riding Gringotts haha.
LOL Nicole told me afterward, so I waved and said hey haha. I noticed it while editing, too. Always appreciate the fun interactions from characters 😄
Always wanted to stay there but during HHN its so expensive at times...thanks for the video of the resort and enjoy your staycation!!
Highly recommend checking in out if you can get a nice deal! I feel like universal offers deals on stays a lot! But HHN season is always hard to find deals since it's just so busy ha
Such a nice resort! I love the way it smells too lol. I really need to get back and go to Strong Water.
It is 😍 We ordered the scents online in wax melts to have at the house! Hoping they're at least close to the same lol. Strong Water is awesome, I imagine a nice night there on the balcony area would be a super awesome evening. Awesome views and nice drinks, can't ask for much more haha
Great info on this and the other resorts, thanks!
Thank you! It was such an awesome resort!
Hey we stayed there last year for HHN and might again this year! we loved getting their jalepeno pretzels at 2am coming back from hhn :) haha
Honestly that sounds AMAZING. Haha. It's probably a great option considering it's affordable and very nice, so you get the best of both worlds to go back to the resort to relax after a long day!
Great review!
I appreciate it! It was such an awesome resort 😍 we loved it!
We love the smell of the Loews hotels so much that I found the manufacturer online and bought wax melts in the same scent for our home. I'm so glad y'all got to do this, Sapphire Falls is our second favorite onsite hotel and we stay there whenever we don't feel the need for the express passes. Congrats btw! Totally missed that you've passed 3k subs!
I was just reading someone else talk about the wax melts! Literally smells sooooo good. I was shocked, I think it's my favorite smelling hotel I've visited so far! Do you have the name of the company that makes them?? I also think if you don't need the express, this is such a great value, the luxury feel, amazing pool, location etc, all just ticks every box I'd be looking for in a resort 😆 Thank you! I didn't announce much yet, but I was super shocked we got there on the subs, super cool to see the responses! 🙏
@@Dillon.Thomas TH-cam is eating my comment probably because I'm putting a link in but the seller is Aroma Retail and the scent Loews uses is called Social House Bright Sunshine.
@@Controller-Cassie TH-cam hates external links! LOL. I'll look them up, though, thank you!!
My favorite Universal hotel! 🥰
I'm shocked how amazing it was! I didn't realize how nice it was for how affordable it is! 🤩
@@Dillon.Thomas yup! It sucks it’s not in the tier that includes the express pass but oh well, I will go for this hotel every time!
@jazeryismyname true, but it is significantly less money! So that's a plus 😊
Okay, so I am binge watching and not in any particular order lol. I'm going to keep up one of these days. This trip was our first time staying at Sapphire Falls and I loved it. Only issue is I kept getting lost lol; the layout is different from the others. Like the lobby is on the 4th floor and it felt like a scavenger hunt trying to find the water taxi which my daughter loved lol. I loved the room, loved Strong Water Tavern (I should have extended an invite to you and Nicole because I ordered so many dishes but had no help eating them LOL), especially loved the pool (just wish it was a little bigger...I feel like for the size of the resort it could be a little bigger. If I'm not mistaken, they only have one pool). All in all, I loved it so much we're staying here again next year in February (trying to visit in winter months lol)! I didn't get to eat at Amatista so that's my excuse to come back. I got carried with room service so I need to stay away from that next time. It's so convenient but adds up for sure lol.
I'm glad you mentioned that if you stayed at a premier resort you get express both check in and check out. Something to consider for sure. I only want to stay at one to scratch it off the bucket list but I haven't decided on which one yet lol.
We've been putting out a lot of content recently, and plan to keep on pushing! But that's the best part of TH-cam, you get to pick and choose what you watch, and when you watch! It's a large resort there at Sapphire Falls, I could see people getting lost 😂 I will admit, the levels were bizarre, like you said 4th floor lobby, 2nd floor pool, 1st floor water taxi I think was the layout. It's like the pools above the taxi?! But it was still awesome. Strong Water was super cool, we loved just hanging out there, we didn't record much because we were just vibing out haha. I think the resort wraps pretty far around from what I was seeing, and I actually thought the pool was very big compared to some other resorts! A second pool would be cool, but I was thankfully never feeling like I was on top of people in theirs. To be fair, it wasn't insanely busy. I heard the breakfast is great at Amatista, so that's our next goal when we eat there. Room service is ALWAYS dangerous, especially if you don't get the bill till the end 😂😂
Yes!! I love that you get it the day you check in and the day you checkout! It's such a smart move to do that even if you do one night there, you basically get 2 days of express, so it's kind of worth it to add even one day at one of those hotels just to get the express!
@@Dillon.Thomas I appreciate you taking the time to respond to my comments. You certainly didn't have to because I know I bombarded you with a lot lol.
Thanks!
Of course!
That wallet is insane LOL
Mine?? 😅
SO ridiculous they have bibles in hotels.
I guess I've been seeing them since I was a kid in the hotels I never even thought about it haha
I wonder y that was ever a thing like who started that 😂
