At at Universal Orlando<\/a>‘s Royal Pacific Resort, stay close to the action but in your own tropical retreat. As one of Universal’s five (soon to be six) onsite hotels, Loews Royal Pacific Resort<\/a> offers many benefits and perks to its guests. I have my own top five reasons to stay at the Royal Pacific — see if this resort appeals to you!<\/p>\n

5. Dining<\/strong> — Royal Pacific boasts a strong lineup of restaurants, ranging from the high end — Emeril Lagasse’s\u00a0Tchoup Chop<\/a> — to Jake’s American Bar<\/a>. Also, you will want to consider\u00a0the Islands Dining Room buffet<\/a>, with character dining several nights per week. There’s sushi, a pool bar, and a grab-and-go area. Better yet, you’re just a short walk or boat ride away from the 20-plus restaurants in CityWalk. You won’t run out of places to eat.<\/p>\n

4. Distance<\/strong> — While we’re on the subject of proximity,\u00a0you’re going to get spoiled if you stay here. Boats leave regularly from near Royal Pacific’s pool area. They drop you at CityWalk<\/a>, just a bridge away from either Universal Studios Florida or Islands of Adventure. No buses, no parking trams, and a very short walk to the gate. Alternatively, the walk to the theme parks is a beautiful path taking less than 15 minutes, door-to-gate.<\/p>\n

3. Rooms<\/strong> — Royal Pacific’s guest rooms have been remodeled over the past few years and now come with a “tropical modern” look. “tropical modern.” They are fresh and clean-lined, but definitely take their cues from South Seas patterns and textures.<\/p>\n

2. Retreat<\/strong> — Royal Pacific created a tropical oasis in the middle of a theme-park area that serves tens of thousands daily. The grounds feel\u00a0lush and well-maintained. There is a large lobby with plenty of seating surrounding an atrium, ample space around the pool area, even a small beach! We stayed there during the busy spring break time, and I never felt crowded in any area. Insider tip: you are allowed\u00a0pool-hop to any of the other onsite resort pools.<\/em><\/p>\n

1. Perks<\/strong> — While the luxury and location of the Loews Royal Pacific Resort are already compelling reasons to lodge\u00a0here, you’re really paying a premium for the perks that come with your stay. Chief among them: unlimited Express Pass. This benefit begins the moment you check in (come early!) and stops at the end of your checkout day. That means even a one-night stay could net you two days of Express Pass<\/a>, your “Fastpass” at Universal. (That’s why it might be advantageous to shoehorn all five of those people into one room!)\u00a0<\/em>Second, onsite Universal hotels<\/a> get in one hour early to a theme park every day. Since the headliner rides in the Wizarding Worlds<\/a> don’t have Express Pass, this gives you a big jump on the general public. Priority seating at many CityWalk restaurants and package delivery also come with your stay.<\/p>\n

Royal Pacific’s tropical ambiance, abundant food options, and unparalleled access to the parks offer \u00a0a great combination for your Universal Orlando vacation.<\/p>\n
