Linda, I would love to see your photos. We are going there for the first time next summer.

Hi everyone

I am back and I wanted to say a huge thanks to everyone for helping me out with my many questions ahead of my trip

We had an amazing time and I was blown away by the RPR and the staff who work there

Everyone was friendly and helpful at the resort and couldn't do enough for us to make our stay as comfortable as possible

When we checked in I asked if there was any chance of a theme park view (which I had also requested a few days before over the phone) but there wasn't anything available.

We really didn't mind but the following day the guy who checked us in sent this up to the room

There was a card that said 'sorry I couldn't get you the view that you wanted'

How sweet was that

Got loads of photos of the resort if anyone is interested

Thanks again

Linda

How nice was that?!?! I would love to see any photos you want to share.

You can go to guest services and they will print it for you You can also pick up boarding passes for many of the airlines at the kiosks beside the escalator in the airport as long as you have checked in online.

We weren't in club level and I just went to the concierge desk and they had no problem checking us in for our flight and printing our boarding passes.

Linda......glad you had a lovely time at RPR......your photos are lovely. And what a nice gesture from them with the gift.

Little touches like that are so nice.

Thanks for the lovely pictures. I just love the theme of the RPR! We have 13 days and this just whets my appetite even more.

Does anyone know if it's possible to get a water view King suite? The Universal web site doesn't mention room view for this category.

I'm thinking about upgrading to that room for the space, but my husband has a strong preference for a water view.

Thanks for any tips!

You can request one but it won't be guaranteed. There is no price difference for the different views in a King Suite.

Hi everyone,

I've been looking through this topic as my family and I will be staying in RPR in two weeks. I'm new to the whole Universal thing so I was hoping those who have visited before will be willing to share some info.

Are the water taxis faster than walking? Does anyone know about how long each is? Also, is it Tower 3 that's closest to the water taxi area? I tried looking on both the hotel website and Google Maps, but it's a little hard to distinguish where the path is.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

So, we have decided to go to Universal orlando at the beginning of spring break 2011 (March 11th) and have been looking at the packages on the universal orlando website. I am looking for a really nice vacation but dont want to overpay.

Are these packages the best value? could we save a bunch by booking everything seperately? We want to stay at RPR so our teens can come and go as they please with 2 parks passes. Do they have fridges or is there a fridge swap available like the disney DIS boarders have going.The park meal pass looks like a good deal, but is it really?

Any tips on drinks in the parks etc?

Thanks in advance....

I find booking separatley better, as you can change your room rate if a better deal comes out.
Drinks in the park, we bought the refillable mugs for $6.99 a few years ago and keep bringing them back everyyear with us, refills where about 79cents.
there is a fridge in the room, but its filled with drinks,and someone checks it everyday, so do not move anything out of it or you could be charged, if you want use of it there is a charge per day

Not sure if this will help or how old the map is but I found this in my search for a resort map for the RPR. http://www.wdisneyw.co.uk/rprmap.html

This is the interactive version of the above map

If the boat is there, we take the boat. If it isn't, we walk. The boat docks closer to the studios. If you are going to IOA, it is probably just easier to walk.

How long does it usually take to walk?
