I enjoyed my stay at sapphire falls, the newest hotel on Universal property. It was beautiful and nicely themed as you can see from the pictures. The boat was easy and fast (5 min from dock to dock) and it was nice to do security at the hotel with no wait.
I'm not sure if I would stay there again though. The main benefit over Cabana Bay for me is the amenities of the hotel. I love that theme at Cabana bay and often the AP rate is 99 bucks where as Sapphire Falls is a bit more expensive. I also love their drinks and their food court! Sapphire Falls had grab n go (that was pretty pricey) and only sit down restaurants. A nice food court option would be appreciated. I was planning on going to the pool and bar but got so into the World Series I didn't leave my room! I have heard good things about the Rum bar and the pool though so maybe I will go back!
I think if I was going to spend more money, then I would upgrade to get Front of the Line at Royal Pacific.
How about you? Have you stayed at Sapphire Falls?
