Comparing Universal's Endless Summer Dockside and Surfside Resorts
Both Universal's Endless Summer Dockside and Surfside Resorts offer an exciting getaway for guests visiting the Universal Orlando Resort. These two sister resorts share the Endless Summer theme, but they also have some distinct differences that cater to different types of travelers.
Endless Summer Dockside is situated adjacent to its sister property, Endless Summer Surfside, in the southern end of the Universal Orlando Resort.
It promises a laid-back, coastal vibe with vibrant colors, beach-themed decor, and a picturesque waterfront view.
Endless Summer Surfside, on the other hand, immerses guests in the excitement of a surfside paradise. With a surf-inspired design, palm trees swaying in the breeze, and surfboards adorning the walls, this resort transports visitors to the sunny beaches of California. Its vibrant and energetic atmosphere is perfect for those seeking a beach vacation with a touch of thrill.
Accommodation and Amenities:
I wouldn’t loose too much sleep over deciding which hote is better Dockside or Sufside. The are essentially the same hotel.
Both Dockside and Surfside offer affordable accommodations for families. They sit across from each other and are very similar in design. One major difference is that Surfside is smaller than Dockside, which means less people.
Both offer standard rooms and 2-bedroom suites.
Each resort offers a fantastic food court, serving delicious meals and snacks throughout the day.
Price and Value:
Universal's Endless Summer Dockside typically offers slightly lower rates than Endless Summer. However, both properties provide excellent value for guests, enabling them to enjoy the benefits of staying on-site at Universal Orlando Resort within a reasonable budget.
