Loews Royal Pacific Resort at Universal Orlando – Universal Comfort with a Bit of Alluring Island Flair
For most of us, the sign of a great vacation is the feeling of getting away from it all, escaping the stress and worry of everyday life, and truly feeling whisked away to a mini paradise of our very own. At the Loews Royal Pacific Resort at Universal Orlando, that dream is just within reach.
Every inch of this delightful paradise is inspired by the south seas, giving you a taste of the tropics as you embark on adventures and indulge in carefree fun. The sparkling lagoon-style pool is surrounded by palms and a glimmering white-sand beach, creating the perfect place to dip your toes in the water, relax in the sun-warmed sand, and forget all your worries. Sample delectably innovative Polynesian-inspired food and drinks in the laidback lounge or by the poolside. Then, each night, curl up in the comfort of your elegant, island-inspired room or suite.
This resplendent retreat is the perfect place to unwind – while enjoying all the perks of staying at a Universal Orlando hotel, of course!
What sets the Loews Royal Pacific apart from other Universal Orlando hotels, you ask? First and foremost, the answer is service. The Loews Royal Pacific earned the 2018 TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence for its outstanding track record of glowing traveler reviews. When you’re there, you’re in good hands. Escape awaits!
Arriving in Paradise
The first thing you’ll notice is a palatial building surrounded by vibrant greenery and vivid natural color. You’ll be immediately greeted by 2 massive elephant statues wading through the pool out front, spraying water in a glorious, friendly fountain. As you enter, you’ll pass by an entire ensemble of stately statues.
Once you reach your hotel room, you’ll love watching the boats along the glimmering water as you unwind and settle into your space.
Accommodations with Tropical Flair
No matter what kind of room you choose, you can trust you’ll stay in complete comfort at the Loews Royal Pacific Resort at Universal Orlando. But choosing the right accommodations will go a long way in helping you have the best possible experience.
Standard Rooms
Each standard room boasts about 33 square feet of tranquil, island-inspired décor in a restful environment designed to help you unwind in privacy. Choose from views of the lush garden or of the bright, lively waterfront.

Club-Level Rooms
Each club-level room offers additional perks like personalized concierge service, access to the private Royal Club lounge, complimentary continental breakfast, evening beer and wine, and more.

You have the option to reserve additional connecting rooms, so you can create your own suite experience to fit your needs exactly – whether you want 670 square feet or 2,010.
For the ultimate fun-filled stay with the kiddos, you might want to consider the Jurassic Kids Suite, complete with dinosaur-themed décor, carpeting, bedding, and an awesome prehistoric mural on the wall. The beds are even shaped like the pods from Jurassic World!
Soak Up the Sunshine By the Pool
Nestled into Loews Royal Pacific’s palm tree-lined paradise, the expansive lagoon-style swimming pool is the perfect place to dip your toes in the water and beat the heat. Walk along the white-sand beach, heat up in one of the two hot tubs, or challenge your friends to a match at the beach volleyball court. The kiddos will love running around the Royal Bali Sea interactive water play area.
For a break from the sun, take a shady retreat at a private cabana. Each cabana comes complete with amenities like a ceiling fan, phone, TV, and a fridge fully stocked with water and a fruit bowl. They’ve really thought of everything!
There are always plenty of poolside activities going on as well. Curious about what’s going on today? Ask the concierge and they’ll give you the scoop! Expect ping pong tournaments, water balloon tosses, pool basketball, hula hoop contests, arts and crafts, and more.
