Loews Sapphire Falls Resort
Loews Sapphire Falls Resort is a hotel in Orlando designed with a tropical island style and bright Caribbean colors throughout. The property has 1,000 rooms, several dining venues, large pools with sandy beaches, a fitness center, water taxis for transportation, and walking paths connecting to Universal Parks and nearby attractions.
The resort opened in July 2016 as the fifth hotel building at Universal Orlando. This opening was part of Universal's expansion effort to provide more lodging options for park visitors.
The name references the deep blue of the Caribbean and the tropical style that guests experience throughout the resort's design and layout. This island-inspired approach shapes how visitors move through the space and how they feel during their stay.
Guests can reach CityWalk and the parks using free water taxis or a walking path, making transportation simple and direct. Early park admission of one hour before regular opening and half-hour early access to the water park are included benefits that help visitors avoid peak wait times.
The resort features a signature scent experience called Bright Sunshine that guests encounter throughout the property and can purchase to take home. This crafted fragrance blends citrus and fruity notes with floral and woody undertones, creating a sensory memory of the place that lingers long after departure.
