Loews Sapphire Falls brings Early Park Admission

Loews Sapphire Falls Resort pairs Caribbean-inspired rooms with theme park benefits at Universal Orlando Resort. It’s a Signature Collection hotel, with cascading waterfalls and tropical theming throughout.

The hotel’s 16,000-square-foot pool is the largest at Universal Orlando Resort. It has zero-entry access, a water slide, a children’s play area and a nearby hot tub. Cabanas are available to book.

Park benefits and transportation

Sapphire Falls guests can use their room keys for in-park merchandise and dining purchases. Stays also include these park benefits and transportation options:

• Water taxi: Travel to Universal CityWalk, then walk to Universal Studios Florida or Universal Islands of Adventure.
