Universal Studios Orlando Resorts

Beyond the theme parks, Universal Orlando boasts three of the best resort properties in Orlando. In our opinion, all three of the Universal on-site resorts (all managed by Loews hotels) are highly recommended. From the level of service evident at each one, to the superior quality of the rooms, the excellent dining options, and the generally good availability of discounts and upgrades, these resorts offer an excellent value, especially when compared to other deluxe resorts in the area. (In spite of Universal's designation as a value resort, we consider Royal Pacific to be in the deluxe resort category).

**All guests staying at a Universal on-site resort receive a Universal Express Plus access to most of the major attractions, allowing you to by-pass the usual wait. During peak travel dates when lines can be in excess of 90 minutes long, this perk is priceless. We're pleased to add all three Universal resorts to our DIS Recommended list.

Portofino Bay Hotel Universal As the flagship hotel of Universal Orlando resort, the Portofino Bay is arguably the best hotel in Orlando. Themed around the Mediterranean village of the same name, Portofino Bay is a charming and romantic destination - even if you never step foot in a theme park. From the Mandara Spa to the pillow top beds, no detail here escapes a sense of quality and elegance. Some of the best dining in Orlando can also be found here, especially at Mama Della's - a family style Italian eatery that, in our opinion, serves up the best authentic Italian food in Orlando.
