"The bright and airy lobby sets the tone at Sapphire Falls. A playful chandelier, composed of what looks like dozens of wicker beach balls, draws your gaze up and toward the picture window overlooking the resort. The pool area is the gem of this Caribbean-inspired resort, with a sand beach, water slide, firepit, and rentable cabanas. It falls toward the middle of Universal Orlando Resort’s price spectrum, but its dining and amenities—think, the Strong Water Tavern, which stocks more than 60 rums from various regions, as well as easy water taxi access to the theme parks—set it above the competition." - Valerie Marino
