Aventura Hotel

Oooh... potter pics must be coming!

The hotel is blending into the area a lot better than expected and it looks like they hopefully won't have a last minute rush like they did next door.

I hope so, I'm booked for HHN

Yes. It works well with those two new CBBR towers ....And that photo shows how huge CBBR is.

I kind of had the feeling that the fact that the opening isn't until August was a result of them learning their lesson from Sapphire Falls and Volcano Bay's openings. I'm thinking this won't be the same rush at the end that we saw with those projects, and won't require further finishing touches after open. Or at least I'm hoping... there's a happy medium between Disney taking way too long on construction and the rush job (not in terms of finished quality, but where they were at the deadline) Uni did on SF and VB. I'm thinking they've found it.

It'll be hard to unseat Sapphire Falls as my preferred hotel, but Aventura is intriguing to me. It's value, but honestly, the rooms and amenities don't seem value, just the location and lack of water taxi. Regardless of where I stay, I will be spending plenty of time at that rooftop bar on my next trip, for sure.

Is Aventura still going for the same prices as Cabana Bay? I checked out some random dates a couple weeks ago and the prices were identical.

Truthfully, I don’t see a reason to pick Aventura over Cabana Bay other than price. CB seems like a more convenient and well-themed hotel

That rooftop bar is gonna be crowded.....

Me too, see you on the roof

Me too, see you on the roof

If we can get in. Know anybody?

 

[Parkscope Joe]

$20/night is pretty cheap for those that want the view.

For me though, I could care less about the view if i'm staying at Aventura. If i'm staying here, it's most likely for something like a 3-night HHN stay. Choosing the cheaper option saves me $60 and can go towards alcohol at the rooftop bar

Same. Universal knows they need a HHN hotel and I think this will be it

Looking at the pics, I suspect they will open early.

 

[Disneyhead]

My guess is they want a little extra time to get the in room tech working properly before they open.

 

[Yung1522]

I wonder if this will be problematic in the upper rooms

 

[UNIrd]

Umm. Give me park view all day/IOA lighthouse spotlights all night anytime.

 

[Parkscope Joe]

I mean, curtains.

 

[Nick]

I mean, curtains.

This is a seemingly logical thing to say, but all it take is a few weeks of guests complaining for us to lose the lighthouse spotlight forerver.

I had a volcano view room two weeks ago. They don't turn out the pool/volcano lights at night. It was fine

That's because it's a park and workers need to be in there third shift maintaining the park. The lights are on in all three parks at night.

My point is if enough people get annoyed at this, it can easily be turned off after a certain hour because it just doesn't need to happen whereas third shift is 100% necessary.

I mean, curtains.

I think every hotel I've ever stayed at in Orlando has virtually black out blinds, this shouldn't be an issue unless people make it one.

 

[UniversalRBLX]

The light isnt that bright.
