We are going to Universal Nov 20-25 and debating where to stay. I have been to Universal once - April 2018 and we stayed at RP. We loved the convenience of being able to walk and the express passes. We also love pools and felt that RP was a little lacking. In the effort to save a little money, I'm debating staying off-site, maybe someplace with a kitchen to be able to do breakfast and simple dinners. The biggest drawback off site is there don't seem to be any great pools in the area so I think I'd look at staying a little further away - maybe the Sea World area where we can get a great pool. We don't usually rent a car so then I am adding the cost of an Uber or Lyft. Is it worth it? Or more of a hassle? Have you stayed on site and off? What would you do next time?
If on site is your go to - EP hotel or not? Anyone know what the crowds are like the week before Thanksgiving? I've done Disney at Thanksgiving but not Universal. Will we need the EP's?
Extra note - after Universal we will be staying four more nights (until the 29th) so if we stay off site I may just look at staying one place the whole time.
TYIA!!
