Let’s talk about Universal Orlando Resort.
Many consider Universal a more grown-up theme park than Disney, although people of all ages can be quite happy at either destination. It definitely has more thrill rides, and taller height requirements for kids. It’s a very manageable size, and you can truly visit (and enjoy) multiple parks each day.
There are three theme parks.
Universal Studios offers an amazing array of rides, shows, movie sets, and attractions that put you right in the picture.
UNIVERSAL STUDIOS

At Islands of Adventure, shows and interactive attractions bring your favorite stories, myths, cartoons, comic book heroes, and children’s tales to life.
ISLANDS OF ADVENTURE

Where to stay?
Universal Orlando Resort’s hotels are located in the middle of the action, and all offer very quick access to the theme parks. While all hotel guests enjoy early park admission to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter and Universal’s Volcano Bay, I highly recommend staying at one of Universal’s three premier hotels. Guests of these hotels receive free Universal Express Unlimited, allowing guests to skip the regular lines at the most popular attractions at Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure. These three hotels also feature locations within easy walking distance to CityWalk, and the front gates of Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure. Complete details will be included in your vacation proposal.
Live like a rock star with impeccable surroundings, posh
laid-back style and show-stopping service. The closest hotel to the theme parks, this hotel offers a high-energy atmosphere, a large pool, and an amazing program that allows you to borrow Fender guitars (and headphones) to play in
your room.
