That's quite a price range.......
The only info I found was this:

https://orlandoinformer.com/universal/volcano-bay-cabana-rentals/

For $159 I could be interested.. but not for $400+.....

Do you know if that pricing is for full day?
Apparently they will also offer "premium seating".. don't suppose you got the price of that?

 

[readytogosoon]

That's great info - did they give you a sense of how many that accommodated? also, when you say you have tickets for that day, did you buy a one day through the website and you pick the day? I'm unclear on how that is going to work. Date specific? thanks

From reading the Universal Orlando Blog, I understand you have the cabana to yourself for the entire day. I was asking about the premium seating pricing too, but they didn't have pricing or dates when you could start renting them. The cost sounds high, but we are getting in early, and won't have a hotel room until the afternoon, so we plan to be there all day. It will be nice to have our own private space in the park.

For that price I could rent a tent at MK

That sounds like a fantastic plan! Such a lovely addition to the day........I expect they'll be fabulous!

Have heard good things about them so far..........

We're going in June and would like to know how much the Premium Seating is going to be. Earlier I called Guest Services and unfortunately the rep. had no info. to offer.

It shouldn't be long before that info is available........it's frustrating having to wait for info you want.......

Hope it's soon for you.

 

[Mark P.]

Thanks! For me, planning is a nice part of the trip, and getting info. early doesn't always happen, but we've always made out fine in the end

Have we gotten any word on towels yet? I was working on my packing list the other day and wondering if I need to make room for towels.

I have been calling every day to ask about pricing and if reservations are available for cabanas and premium seating. As soon as I hear anything, I'll post it on this thread.

Towel and locker service is included with Cabana rental, so that leads me to believe that towel and locker service will be available for everyone for a fee. They offer towel and locker service at Disney's Blizzard Beach and Typhoon Lagoon, so it's probably going to cost the same.

When I've gone to Disney water parks in the past I always rent the towels and lockers. Well worth it, and you don't have to cart around a wet towel... Just the wet bathing suit.

I heard that Disney just moved to no fee for towels for on site guests. It would be nice to see Volcano Bay do something similar. (I'm not actually sure this is true about Disney, someone can perhaps correct me if this is wrong.)

I could be tempted to rent a cabana for $159 a day as well. It would be just DH and myself, but getting drinks delivered to us and guaranteed seating in the shade for that price might be worth it.

I am interested in the premium seating for Memorial Day Weekend. It will just be DS11 and I. Having a lockbox right by my chair and having shade would be really convenient. I don't want to have to walk back and forth to the lockers all day between attractions.

Ditto for us regarding the Premium Seating. We could be swayed with a Cabana, but that depends on cost of course. I must say, if we were going next month, the planner/budgeter in me would start to get slightly peeved at the lack of pricing for these. We're going later in June, and the trip is all set, including the week before in Sarasota. Just waiting to complete the plan with Volcano Bay, though

Today I called and got new information about Cabana and Premium Seating rentals. All of the pricing has been updated at the top of the thread. They still did not get any information about when we can begin to make reservations. Since there are very few cabanas available, I'm guessing these are going to go quickly, especially on opening day!

My wife and I are very excited about opening day at Volcano Bay. It sounds like it is going to be lots of fun! We hope to see you there!

• There are 11 standalone cabanas, 18 lower level cabanas and 20 upper level cabanas. (I don't get it either. Are 2 of the upper level cabanas floating above the park?)

Maybe there's one bigass 4 story cabana.

Thanks for posting the info.! I think I'm setting a limit of $300 for a cabana. We'll be the week before 4th. of July, so I'm not getting my hopes up that it'll be that "inexpensive". My wife's not a fan of waterparks, so making sure she's set comfortably in a cabana, which is a nice option, while my son and I are out and about in the park would work out nicely. Thanks again!

You and me both brother. Volcano bay is the last "day" I have to figure out. Really interested in specific cabana pricing though...and premium seating as well. I know it's the beginning of their peak season, so I'm not hopeful for the pricing on the low ends...
