DK Eyewitness
"Recent renovations have made this upscale resort even more impressive than before."
Rough Guide
"An upmarket hotel with spacious and comfortable rooms, a bright and airy atrium, an onsite spa, and a good location directly opposite SeaWorld Orlando. $249."
Michelin Guide
"The exterior of the ten floor hotel... situated close to Sea World and other area attractions, is architecturally uninspiring, but its interior reveals a cavernous sunlit atrium."
Star Service
"Located across the road from Sea World, this Shamu-sized hotel continues to prove one of the best hotels outside of the park."
