ROYAL PACIFIC RESORT INFO...FAQ and more......

What macraven says is correct.

You do pay a charge for picking up parcels from business centre. I think it was around $8-10 in 2014.

Love this thread, thanks for all the info. One of the posts mentions a map of the cabanas, but I didn't see it attached. Where can I find this? Also, what is the cost, staying club level?

 

[macraven]

check the website for club level room costs.
depends on room type so different prices varies.
also dates effect the cost of the room.

call the hotel for cabana info if you need that info before you go.


i am not booked for club level but my room costs more that the standard on club

 

[schumigirl]

There's only a few cabanas at RP. Two are close to the kids pool beside the zero entry part of the pool. The other is near the hot tub.

As Mac says check the website for prices.

 

[crazy_for_the_dis]

Thanks, I'll see if I can find it on the website. I have our CL room booked, but I thought club got a discount on the cabanas, so I was asking about the cost of the cabanas with the club discount.

Has anyone reserved a Cabana? Is it worth it? It it impossible to get a lounge by the pool summer season?

THANKS!!

 

[schumigirl]

Thought you were asking the cost of staying Club Level.

I think the cabana cost was $180-200 and yes you do get Club Level discount........I think it was around 25%.........I think.

You get a fridge with water and fresh fruit, there was a ceiling fan and a tv...........


Donna, they are nice and whether it's worth it or not depends on how much you would enjoy spending all day by the pool. I don't think there is a refund for inclement weather. So if the pool closes you're out too.

We have never struggled to get a lounger anytime........but around the pool is the prime spot of course........at night the loungers that go quickly are the ones you can see the dive in movie from.

Thanks, yes I likely worded my question wrong. Sorry it was confusing!

No worries.........sometimes I write something knowing what I mean.......but others may read it very differently........lol........

Hope it answered your question anyway.

 

[macraven]

yes, ap and club guests can receive a discount on the cabanas.

all i could find on the UO site was:

• Private cabanas available for rent. Cabana amenities include a ceiling fan, phone, TV, a refrigerator with water, soda and a fruit bowl. Please call 407-503-3235 for cabana reservations today!


and on another board Orlando Informer:

• Cabanas for daily rental that include a ceiling fan, flat panel television, refrigerator, outlets, and a personal server. Prices range from $80 to $200 depending on the season.

and from 2015 from Touring Plans:

Each hotel's main pool has private cabanas for rent, which start around $100 per day. Aside from providing shade and cushioned lounge chairs, cabanas come with ceiling fans, TVs, a refrigerator, free soft drinks, food and drink delivery, and a personal safe. Reserve a cabana by calling 407-503-4175 at Cabana Bay, 407-503-3235 at Royal Pacific, 407-503-2236 at Hard Rock, or 407-503-1200 at Portofino Bay. Same-day cancellations incur a 50% penalty fee. You'll also find a variety of recreational activities around the pools, from a bocce court at Portofino Bay to a croquet lawn at the Royal Pacific; free equipment can be checked out to play.


call the number to inquire about the cost with the discount for club guests.

Love this thread, thanks for all the info. One of the posts mentions a map of the cabanas, but I didn't see it attached. Where can I find this? Also, what is the cost, staying club level?

I posted a map on page 3. There are 5 cabanas. Three of them are located at the #24 on the map. Two others, that I believe are somewhat larger, are located just below the #26 on the map. For the time of year that we are going I was quoted $100 a day and that included $25 of food and drink allowance. This is with the club level discount.

Princess Amy,

I sure can!

 

[Donna3271]

I sure can!

Have fun!!!

Bummed to see that the king suites at RPR have 3 people max.

I thought that the sofa bed would accomodate 2? We stayed at HRH last year in a Deluxe Queen and loved the space. Thought that the RPR king suites would give us even more space with a small $ savings.

I guess the good news is that I won't need to "sell" the 15 year old on RPR, as her first choice is HRH.

Always good to have decisions made easy at times..........

i do the king suites at rpr and would think 3 is just fine for that room set up.

the fold out couch is not that large to handle more than 1 one person.
last year i stayed in T3 which did not have all the rooms renovated yet.
I chose to have one that had not been changed over yet.
The sofa at that time was a 2 cushion sofa.
The fold out not that large.

Don't know what size of sofas are in the suites now the renov has been completed.

The fire ordinances policiies have to be followed by the hotel.
They consider 3 peeps to a king studio.
The other studios can accomodate more than 3 in the room the way the furniture is set up.

hrh would be great for a 15 yo teen!

Tell them when you check in that you're staying at the hotel and ask if they are using the preferred seating. We've NEVER been able to get it at Margaritaville because they say there's such a short wait they aren't using it. So that's a bonus, that we go at lighter-crowd times, but it's still irritating to not be able to use a perk.



Every single ride.

Thank you, I appreciate the additional info!

Parking question: we are staying one night to take advantage of two days of HP early entrance and EPs. If we arrive at 6pm, and they add parking for the night, are we OK to stay in that parking lot until evening of the 2nd day, or will we need to move the car to the main garage after 24 hours?

Thanks to all of you who contribute to this thread, it is full of great information and the pictures are fantastic! Thank you SO much for your time.
