Best aesthetic, cool and very comfy theming, two awesome pools, great lazy river, it's got everything!

Use to be the best, sadly the years hurt it. Still love it tho!

I've stayed there many times....and I've been to everything on property , except Hard Rock & off property Dockside, many multiples of time. I wouldn't say Cabana is the best resort, but I would say ' it's the best resort
value wise'. Though bus transportation is very good at both Dockside and CBBR Universal resorts, it's my least favorite mode of going to the parks. I prefer hitching a Sapphire taxi, or walking
the path.

It’s all subjective too. Like I personally really do not like Hard Rock. Theme, room amenities, and hotel overall just didn’t seem that great, but people rave about it. It’s just great that Universal basically has a place for everyone’s taste.

I understand. The reason we've never stayed at Hard Rock, and we've dropped by to eat a few times, is that we don't care for the theme and we've always thought that hard rock music all day and night would drive us batty. :grin:

Yes, a sessions visit is perfect for me but I don't want to check in and have a guitar sent up. I hear the pool is cool but have never. Lots of time circling the lazy river at Cabana though

Buddy Mike was moved three times to a room that worked last year. Maintenance and staffing is a huge issue. Also some people want better rooms or Express.

The aesthetic is nice as is the lazy river.

I noticed last HHN that I think my friends and I have kind of "outgrown" CB. There were families and kids *everywhere* last year

Which is good because they pay the bills

I think Sapphire is more my vibe now, it's a bit more chill, and more expansive which mean quieter

Yes Backwater is carrying a lot of it as well, fave bar on property

Well, I'll be staying at Sapphire for the first time next week for opening weekend of HHN, so I'm excited to see if it overtakes CB for me!

Nice! Try Strong Water for sure. Also remember you can pool hop too so you can still go to the lazy river.

Wonder if it's basically the mini Toothsome concept modified for a new theme...

To stay on theme I hope it's a '50s malt shoppe with three head Hamilton Beach mixers and stainless cups. Leave the cupcakes to the chocolate people and out of the shakes.

I hope there's an actual counter you can sit at!

I would've thought a brand new restaurant coming to one of the resorts would have its own article here. How come this wasn't reported on, @Brian G. or anyone who works on publishing articles here? Are you waiting for more information to be released?

Well, considering this bit of news dropped yesterday morning, and the site's senior staff was busy covering Horror Nights... perhaps they just need a day or two to get something up? Especially since there isn't any info available beyond "a malt shop is coming in this location?"

So, having stayed at Sapphire Falls, I like it! Beautiful resort with a good water slide.

...Cabana Bay is still better
