Loews Sapphire Falls Resort has 1,000 rooms set around a lagoon and waterfalls, with one of the largest pools at Universal Orlando, a table-service restaurant and a well-regarded rum bar. It offers the amenities of the top hotels, including a water taxi to CityWalk.
The important thing to know is what it does not include. Universal places Sapphire Falls in its Signature Collection alongside Portofino Bay, Hard Rock and Royal Pacific, but it does not come with Universal Express Unlimited. Older guides call it a Preferred hotel, which was the name of its former category. Its rate should be compared with Royal Pacific's on the same night: when the gap is small, the Express hotel is usually the better buy.
Who it suits
- Guests who want a resort pool and restaurants and do not plan to use Express.
- Quieter dates, when Express would add little.
- Visitors who like a boat ride to the parks at a lower rate than the Express hotels.
Getting to the parks
Water taxis run to CityWalk, and a walking path reaches the parks in about fifteen minutes. Volcano Bay is a short shuttle ride away when the water park is open. Epic Universe is reached by shuttle bus.
Good to know
- No Express Pass of any kind is included.
- Early Park Admission is included, as at every on-site hotel.
- Check the nightly difference to Royal Pacific before booking. It varies a great deal by date.
