We loved this hotel!!! If you’re looking for a more subdued, refined Universal hotel experience this is the hotel for you! We were immediately impressed with the sleek minimalist decor. Our room was spacious and comfortable. Everything had an ultra modern vibe. We loved the iPad controller. Customer service was excellent! Issues (our iPad wouldn’t charge) were followed up with promptly via text. We ordered extra blankets and pillows and got them so fast! We traveled as a family with a teen. Aventura is the perfect hotel for this demographic. We enjoyed the pool and the restaurants on site. The pizza was fantastic and the burgers at the rooftop patio were delicious. The added bonus of being able to see the fireworks at Disney from the rooftop patio AND from the comfort of our beds was the icing on the cake! We also enjoyed taking the water taxi over to City Walk and the parks. The water taxi is easily accessible through the hotel next door. The only thing these rooms lacked was a place to hang things. There was ample closet space for clothes but we had to get inventive as to where to hang towels. A towel bar near or hooks (there was only one) would be a great addition. There are no doors (the bathroom door is a pocket door) so over the door hangers will not work. Given the chance we’d go back in a heartbeat!! Outstanding quality and value for the price! Read less

It was okay for a reasonably priced hotel for families within universal. Unfortunately our bathroom had a faulty toilet so it kept blocking every single day even when flushing with water alone. Complained five times during our stay and they just kept sending someone up to "sort it" but it was just a temporary fix. Nothing was offered to… Read more
It was okay for a reasonably priced hotel for families within universal. Unfortunately our bathroom had a faulty toilet so it kept blocking every single day even when flushing with water alone. Complained five times during our stay and they just kept sending someone up to "sort it" but it was just a temporary fix. Nothing was offered to compensate for this long term issue as we were there for a week. Read less

We just arrived home! Our stay at Aventura was very good. Geena at the lobby bar was super nice and helpful, we enjoyed hanging out there and chatting with her. She was also super sweet to our kids. The food in the hotel was decent, we ate several times in the food court area. The pizza was really yummy, they had Gelato and there was a grill and asian food. Asian food was really good! Lots of snack options there. We were sad that there weren't any treats like cake pops/cupcakes, but realized we could get that nearby at Sapphire Falls. On the 17th floor there's a bar/restaurant where you can watch the Disney fireworks, which was so exciting for us! The room was clean and kept up well, housekeeping was great. Beds were a little firm, but fine. We could see the volcano at the waterpark from our room which was fun. Pool was okay, we only used it once. We found out that you can use pools at Cabana Bay and Sapphire Falls (both in walking distance) and we used the Sapphire Falls pool more, as they had sand and we liked the environment better. Staff was friendly and helpful throughout the hotel. They had movies in the evening by the food court. Parking was close by. City Walk and Universal theme parks are so close. The bus system was very good, and we could also use the boat that went to Sapphire Falls. Overall, I'd recommend this hotel. Read less

This hotel is pretty amazing! The hotel is beautiful and clean, the rooms are comfortable, and the location cannot be beat. You can either take the shuttle bus or the ferry next door at the sister hotel, which is about a 5-10 min. walk. Even my local Orlando friends were amazed at how great the hotel was when they visited. I would definitely stay… Read more

We stayed here celebrating my wife’s birthday at Universal Studios. Clean rooms, friendly and knowledgeable staff. Quick shuttle options to the parks. There’s a walking pathway to the parks but take my advice….save those steps and take the shuttle. Your feet will thank you at the end of the day. We really enjoyed our stay and the bar/restaurant on… Read more
We stayed here celebrating my wife’s birthday at Universal Studios. Clean rooms, friendly and knowledgeable staff. Quick shuttle options to the parks. There’s a walking pathway to the parks but take my advice….save those steps and take the shuttle. Your feet will thank you at the end of the day. We really enjoyed our stay and the bar/restaurant on the 17th floor was excellent. Highly recommended for couples looking for the park convenience but don’t necessarily need a theme park hotel vibe. We will definitely visit again. Read less
