Frog Family Tips

  • Request a room with a tub if you want one; most standard rooms include showers only (requests cannot be guaranteed)
  • Try the turtle brownie at the New Dutch Trading Co. — it's divine!
  • Walk to the parks or take a shuttle bus in inclement weather because the water taxis don't run when there is lightning
  • Request the higher floors for better views with lagoon and pool rooms
  • Request a lagoon view room if you'd like to take in the sunrise
  • Request a room close to the elevators if you don't want to do a lot of walking
  • Take advantage of pool hopping to the other Universal Orlando Resort — you can use your room key to charge food and drinks!

Best For

  • Smaller families who want a full-service hotel experience, proximity to the parks and some park benefits
