Cabana Bay Beach Resort

[TheCodeMan95]

We stayed exclusively at Cabana Bay from 2016-2024.

We tried out Stella Nova and Dockside last year. We really liked Stella Nova, and Dockside was fine. But our hearts still belong to Cabana lol

The newer resorts fulfill the purpose of being a clean place to sleep at night, but it just doesn't have Cabana's stellar ambience. I'm hoping we see something similar at the south resort, maybe with the 80s?

This resort's soundproofing is awful. We had a quiet indoor access room facing one of the garages at the back but between 9pm and 1am all we can hear is the bass from next doors TV. Then about 8:30am the automated announcements from Volcano Bay tumble through the windows.

I swear Surfside was quieter. Not that impressed so far.

Do the more expensive resorts have better soundproofing?

To an extent, yes. We also had the bad luck of being in a connecting room once and could hear EVERYTHING that was being said next door.

But honestly, this hotel has fallen off pretty bad. I used to STAN it... have all the merch to prove it and even called it my favorite for a while. But now, it might honestly be one of my last choices to stay on property.

Solution: Stay at Sapphire Falls and walk over to Cabana for all the stuff there!

I would happily do this is Sapphire wasn't astronomically more expensive for some reason lol

Although this year, the price difference honestly isn't bad

We ended up asking to be moved as our neighbours weren't checking-out any time soon.

Got moved to a tower facing the pool. Night one and our new neighbours were having a barney (MOD EDIT: foul language) to the point we felt we had to call security in case there was a domestic incident going on.

And the air con wasn't working, so needed a repair job.

And today we come back from a long day at Busch Gardens to no hot water.

The staff have been amazing so far (shout out to Engineer Elvis & Guest Services DJ) but the actual resort and clients less so. I'm not sure we'll be staying here again.

Would love to. Think the significant other is more of a fan of the 2br suites at Endless though.


Now got a beeping cherry picker outside at 22:52. Don't know if to laugh or cry. Probably the latter seeing the wife is having an insomniatic breakdown.

Sorry to hear that. I didn’t have anywhere near the kind of problems you’re having when I stayed a couple years ago, but I was also unimpressed by the room we were in. We’ve stayed at the DoubleTree across the street the last couple trips which, while obviously not fancy, has nicer rooms than Cabana Bay for less money.

Of course, you literally can’t beat CBBR for location if you love Volcano Bay… and we do.
