The South hotel rooms a the Sonesta Hotel

"A very big and busy hotel very close to all the Universal parks. The hotel is dated in parts but comfortable all the same. Lots of places to eat with good variety in each place and prices are reasonable considering you are in a universal hotel Pools are big with lots of loungers and towels available "

"Clean kid friendly good breakfast great location active parking lot security "

"Above and beyond. We traveled with our children and chose this hotel because it was supposed to be family-friendly and it sure was. The proper was full of kids, which we liked. They made our kids feel welcomed. The pool was beautiful, the beach right there and the breakfast buffet amazing. "

"Poolside and beach were great spots."

"The room and amenities are great. The property is very spread out, which is a bonus and drawback in different ways. Sacrificing a bit of speed and convenience is likely worth it for the spacious, relaxed feel of the resort. It was a great place, and I give it 4.5 stars because there are places I’ve stayed that more thoroughly earn the 5 star rating. "

"Comfortable home away from home."

"Great rooms and a lot of space"

"The pool was really nice but it wasn't heated so the water was too cold to get in. I wish they had vending machines to get drinks or snacks late at night but they did open the gift shop for us to grab snacks. We wouldn't have known it was open if we didn't call. The gate was closed when we walked by the lobby. Over all, It was a very relaxing weekend. I am glad my friend and I got to go. We had a wonderful time. "

"Pool looked great, but it was too cold outside to go into the pool. Breakfast options were great. Live music at night was great. Bartenders were very attentive and fun. Bed was extremely comfortable, and the view from my room was awesome."
