It is absolutely beautiful, peaceful, and feels like a tropical escape right in Orlando. Everything is so well-maintained, and the atmosphere is relaxing and perfect for a full day of enjoying the water and beautiful surroundings. The food was okay--nothing that really stood out to me--but with so much included in the experience, that wasn't the main reason I came. The opportunity to swim, relax, explore, and enjoy such a gorgeous setting made the day really special. It is an expensive experience, but if you're looking for something unique, relaxing, and memorable, I definitely think Discovery Cove is worth doing at least once!

Our last experience was amazing. Lastly, we were warned by a staff member to make sure we get a locker for our personal items. She actually said that people steal items from you. I take that as alot of theft here.

Fun spot has been a staple for my family since I was a kid…read more My brother and I used to love racing around on the go karts. We first started doing this in magical midway, but when that felt too rickety and unsafe, we started looking for other parks, and that's when we found fun spot! We would go multiple times a year every year when we were younger and always took advantage of the anniversary ticket prices. It's been a while since we've gone, but it would definitely be another fun trip with nostalgia . The parks have expanded over the years to add more carnival style rides, and a few roller coasters, which are pretty fun too !

I had a couple hours in the afternoon to use up between hotel check out and the conclusion of my…read morehusband's conference, so I took my kids to Fun Spot. I had heard from locals that it's a great local option over the big theme parks. Fun Spot was pretty great, for what it was. Free parking, free admission if you don't plan on riding rides, also a discounted adult pass if you only are going on rides with your kid who is too young to ride alone. The whole place was small, maybe the area of a handful of city blocks. And on the Sunday afternoon when we went, the place was quiet enough that we never waited more than a few minutes to get onto a ride. As we were only there for a couple hours, the cashier recommended the 4 ride pass for my kids, and the companion pass for me. But if one were to spend more hours there, buying the day pass online for $59.95 is quite a bargain. Not all rides were open, but the "big" rides that most kids want (the roller coasters and the go carts) were open. My daughter, who is not a big roller coaster fan, had a harder time finding kiddie rides that she actually wanted to go on, and she watched the go carts and didn't even want to try those with me driving. However, the place was small enough that I felt fine leaving my 10 year old son to go on rides by himself while I went on the Ferris wheel or the merry go round with my 8 year old. There are a bunch of food options available throughout the park. They were definitely more affordable than Disney prices! Most of the places offered souvenir cups with discounted refills, but there were also water stations set up throughout with free cups. I'd definitely come back if I had a few hours to burn and the kids didn't want to go swimming. Hopefully at some point, my daughter will change her mind about roller coasters, though!

This was my very first time visiting Icon Park, and I have to admit, I was pleasantly surprised…read more The first thing I appreciated was the parking. They have a convenient parking garage where the first three floors are paid parking, while the fourth floor and above are free. That was a nice bonus and made getting there easy. I was actually on my way to a restaurant, so exploring the park wasn't part of the plan. But once I walked inside, I couldn't help but look around. There were restaurants, food vendors, candy shops, drink stands, and so much more. The atmosphere was lively, fun, and full of energy. It looked like the perfect place for families, couples, or anyone just looking to spend a few hours enjoying themselves. This is a short review because I didn't get the chance to experience everything Icon Park has to offer. However, based on my first impression alone, I can definitely say I'll be back. It was filled with excitement for both children and adults, and I'm looking forward to exploring it even more on my next visit.

Overall, I think this is a great place to check out if you are in Orlando…read more We came here because we have Legoland gold passes which means we get free admission to sea life, Madame Tussaud's, and the Orlando Eye. All three of these together took up about two hours and then we were able to go to Cafe tu tu tango to get a bite to eat. This was a great half day experience while we were visiting Orlando. There was a parking garage and parking was super easy. By that time we left around 8:30 PM there were so many cars, but when we first got there at about 5 PM there were tons of spots. They do have parking spots you can pay for in the lower levels so it seems like if you're willing to pay there will always be parking. If you want free parking, you need to go earlier because this seems to be popular for nightlife. I always appreciate when there's so many attractions together that you can walk to. This place has quite a few restaurants, some shops and the attractions all in a contained area. It was very clean and when we came, there was a huge police presence, because apparently a couple weeks before there was hundreds of teenagers that descended to the area and fought. So the place was doing a really good job making sure that everything was safe. This is a place for both families and non-families alike.

We had a beautiful day to visit and smiled throughout the day. Some of our best moments were walking through the various city streets and seeing musical performances and dancing. The walkways were wide and we were never on top of other guests. Most rides had reasonable wait times and/or offered single rider options. The locker areas for cramped, but I appreciated how many of the wait queues were indoors, keeping us cooler and away from the rain. The Harry Potter sections were amazing, just amazing. I couldn't have imagined how it would have felt being in the middle of the space. Restaurants, both sit down and quick service, were scattered throughout the park. I loved that we didn't have to worry plan in advance to get a spot at either. My only downside to Universal Studios is that some of the themes felt outdated or just aren't favorite characters of mine. At least this helped to decrease the temptation of spending money on apparel or merchandise.

The customer service phone number is a pain to navigate and the staff is unhelpful. They are either unwilling or unable to connect directly to restaurants, certain departments (like guest services), etc. They even told me a restaurant was closed despite the restaurant showing as open online. The customer service rep was also unwilling to put someone else on the phone or provide next steps. The inconvenience of Universal (including having to pay to visit City Walk) underlines its intent was to make money rather than create lasting family memories. Don't waste your money and time.

The Mario Kart ride had a broken headset and when I got off I didnt understand why I had to wear it but my family assured me it was "so cool!" So I alerted the staff that it was broken and they said "we know. You can ride again if you want." They wouldnt have brought it up if I hadn't alerted them so that made me feel bad about anyone who had actually waited 2 and a half hours and didnt think to mention it to staff that the headset was broken. The mine cart ride was cool but about 10 seconds on the ride the music stopped so that was just a little disappointing. The Yoshi ride had a fun and air conditioned line but the ride is supposed to be interactive and me and my son's buttons weren't working. It was just a bit frustrating that each ride had a little something that was broken after having spent sooo much money. Toadstool Cafe did have a vegan meat sandwich that was delicious though and my kids loved the DK barrel drink near the donkey Kong ride.

I didn't really see staff but it is kind of like a self-taught walkthrough. Overall, the grandkids loved it. They are 8 and 11 so with the age difference it's always hard to please both but this place did not disappoint them. Pricing is perfect for a tourist area so I wasn't really thinking that it was overpriced. It's on I drive so the pricing was perfect. It served both age groups which was a plus for me. Highly recommended as a Saturday giveaway after a lunch with the family

Epic Universe is a beautiful park with impressive technology and incredible theming, but overall it…read morefeels smaller than I expected. While each land looks amazing, I found myself feeling like the biggest highlight by far was Super Nintendo World. Walking through the Warp Pipe into the Mushroom Kingdom is unforgettable. The music, colors, Mario Kart, Yoshi's Adventure, and Donkey Kong Country make it feel like you've stepped inside a real Nintendo game. My biggest disappointment is that Nintendo didn't get the entire park. Imagine if Epic Universe had been built completely around Nintendo with multiple themed worlds: Mushroom Kingdom - Mario, Peach's Castle, Mario Kart, Toad Town, and Rainbow Road. Yoshi's Island - A colorful family land filled with dinosaurs, adventure trails, and unique rides. Donkey Kong Country - A huge jungle packed with temples, waterfalls, mine carts, and thrilling attractions. Bowser's Kingdom - A massive volcanic world with Bowser's Castle, lava-filled rides, and epic battles. Luigi's Mansion - A haunted land with ghosts, puzzles, special effects, and a state-of-the-art dark ride. Nintendo has enough characters and games to fill an entire theme park. Instead, it only occupies one section of Epic Universe. For me, the park itself feels a bit small, and outside of Nintendo there wasn't another land that left the same lasting impression. Super Nintendo World is what makes Epic Universe worth visiting, and I honestly believe Universal missed an opportunity by not making the entire park a Nintendo park. Epic Universe is still a great park, but Super Nintendo World completely steals the show. If Universal ever expands Nintendo into multiple worlds--including Yoshi's Island, Bowser's Kingdom, Luigi's Mansion, Zelda, Pokémon, Kirby, and Metroid--it could become the greatest video game theme park ever created

When I brought it up to staff, only then did they say "We know. You can ride again." So for anyone who didnt mention it they would have wasted 2 hours in line. The theming is amazing. Especially in Dark Universe. The monster ride is the best ride in the park and there really wasn't much of a line. The kids loved the theming of Nintendo World and they did have vegan options there. Isle of Berk had a water shooter ride that ended up being a favorite of the dudes in my family.
