    Great job as always, Molly. I agree that robot delivery would be a great addition to the Galactic Starcruiser. Just another example of how Universal is beating Disney at it's own game. And for far less money.

    35:50 Have you ever taken the water taxi? You can just walk to Sapphire Falls to the water taxi and it takes you right into City Walk. It's free for all Universal Hotel customers -- just show them your room card.

    I've always been a HUGE disney person but in the last 3 or so years I have slowly been falling in love with Universal more and more. I'm a resort girl and the fact that they have really great resorts at awesome prices is what really pushed me over the edge plus the Universal Parks are just such fun, I could spend all day in the Harry Potter areas! It's nice to have an alternative to Disney, who unfortunately, really feels like it's pricing people out more and more every day. BTW, Relay was SO CUTE!!

      Weird question but did you have problem fitting your legs under the work desk? I saw someone in a review mention that they had troubles doing so, stated she was small (5’2) as well. Not sure if that was nonsense or a truth.
      It wouldn’t be a deal breaker as we already have it reserved for next year and have no intentions on switching resorts. Just wondering

    Great review. I stayed at Aventura and Cabana Bay. They are both incredibly good for the price. I think Aventura is better for people who just want a peaceful quiet stay with less walking while Cabana Bay has more things to do. Since Aventura is next to Sapphire Falls, the water taxi was our favorite option to get to the park. We never took the bus when we stayed there.

    We stayed at Aventura in November last year. The staff was amazing! It was my sons birthday and they sent the robot to our room with some cake pops. My kid was so excited!
    My husband hurt his knee and I called to ask for an ice pack. It was delivered to us in less than 3 minutes. Again, staff is amazing!
    We had a great time. Our room was right under the roof bar so we could hear the music but it wasn't too terrible in order for us to sleep.

    I upstated adventurer multiple times and been impressed both times. Last time we stayed with my brother and his wife who have stayed a very exclusive hotels and they thought it was fabulous too. Another great feature if you walk to Sapphire falls you can catch the boat to the theme parks cuts off a lot of walking and is a lovely way to get to the parks. The rooftop bar is such a lovely way to spend the evening and on some nights they even have live bands. The bartenders at the bar both in the lobby and the roof were excellent and made us custom drinks. If you need to do laundry they have it on three of the floors it was very clean and very convenient. For the money you spend this hotel is a fabulous find. We went in off times so the express pass would not have even been a benefit. I have stayed in the resorts that do provide the express pass and they are lovely too but as adults without children this is our favorite.

    Ok, I actually love this resort. It's so close to Sapphire Falls, so you can utilize anything they have at their resort, but it's ultimately much less expensive. The food is decent, the halls are short (so you never have to walk a long way at the end of the night after a long park day), and the iPads in the rooms are very handy. The only real negative for me is that the pool is quite small, but there's a hot tub and pool bar. I've never been in the rooftop bar, but it's nice knowing it's there if that's your thing.

    We stayed at this hotel in November of 2018 so it was still pretty new. We got locked out of our room twice. Once our card didn’t work (that was right at the beginning) and then another time somehow the door guard lock shut behind us so they had to get a locksmith to come use a special tool to get us in. Apparently it was happening quite often. The staff was really friendly and surprisingly quick to fix it so I was happy with the experience overall.

    Stayed in Aventura a few years ago during the off season. It was okay as a hotel, but restaurant was a ghost town, food options are limited, had to use Doordash because everything was closed in the early evening.
    Also there was some type of private party at the roof bar and it was hard to sleep for one night.
    Preferred my stay at Cabana Bay, stayed at the Bay Towers to be close to VB and have the VB view. Only bad part was that the towers are a walk to the lobby, buses, restaurants. Best was Royal Pacific over Hard Rock. If you are okay with the prices.

    I'm a fan of Aventura. It is small and compact and easy to use. For a less intense vacation with less emphasis on riding rides, it is a fantastic value. The upper level hotels with Express pass are great, but sometimes that can be a waste of money - for example if you fly in very late or fly out very early and don't want to pay for an Express Pass hotel. Or if you are leaving early for Disney, why pay for a wasted day of Express pass at Universal? Plus, the walk to Volcano Bay is very quick and simple without scarey streets to cross. Overall an easy hotel at a good price.

(Pop Century for over $300 is Ridiculous-Disney be Ashamed, Very Ashamed!) Their food is much better at Universal too. That Robot 🤖 delivery is incredible 👏. Disney you're dropping the ball again. Why is that Not at the Galactic Star Cruiser?! You pay $6k for 2 nights there! For that price you should have a 🤖 that follows you around.

    Awesome. we just stayed at Aventura. really loved it. stayed at mostly all the high end hotels on property before. I would suggest a skyline view facing the parks just awesome. would drink my coffee while watching the rides start testing . Beautiful views at night also. I would not take the busses. I would suggest taking a short 5 minute walk to Cabana hotel next door and catch the water taxi. Never had any issues very efficient. We did this most of our stay. I did take a nice walking trail to citiwalk which I enjoyed. You can do your security check at water taxi very fast and efficient. The burgers at hotel I though were very good and reasonable.

    You should have walked through Sapphire Falls and eitheir walked from there or taken the water taxi as it is a little quicker.

    Molly, if you're a cabana bay resort guest, can you go to the adventura roof top bistro?

    I wonder if they put the luggage carts out intentionally or if they were borrowed by guests and not returned and just left by the elevator
