Just booked Royal Pacific.

After reading the post on here we decided to stay onsite at Universal. So far the plan is...

Thurs 1/7 - Sunday 1/0 at POP

Sunday - Spend the day at Sea World staying at Nick Hotel (Surprise for the boys)

Monday and Tuesday - Universal and IOA - Spend Monday night at Royal Pacific to take advantage of Express Pass for those 2 days.

Then heading to Port Canaveral Tuesday night and staying at Residence Inn for 2 nights before our 1st Disney cruise!!!

Now that I have all our reservation made it is finally feeling real.

In 2 months we will be on our way!!! Yeah!!!

This is all brand new for us (Exploring Florida outside Disney)!!

If anyone has any more suggestions - Please let me know!!! TIA

The Royal Pacific Resort is wonderful. We liked the breakfast stuff, loved the pool and the room was nice. The only downside was that the room was a bit small.

It worked for the kids and I but if DH had been there, we would've been tripping over each other since he takes up a ton of room. LOL

When you get back, let us know what you think of the resort. I love hearing the pros/cons from everyone.

We liked the RP - the 5 of us stayed in a standard room and were comfortable. Sounds like you've got everything planned out well!

Have a great time! If you didn't want to move around so much, instead of 1 night at Nic, you could do 2 nights at RP, they have a shuttle to Sea World. The Universal Pass is great! Have fun.

Sounds wonderful. I took a good look around RPR when I stayed at HRH once and decided that it would be the resort my family would like best.
Have fun at all the different hotels and parks!

We just came back from the Royal Pacific and LOVED it!!! We had 5 to a room and it was a bit tight but it worked just fine. 2 adults 3 kids. Twins who are 11 and a 4 year old. The staff was amazing. Everyone I spoke to was sooo nice and friendly and the Express pass was awesome as well.

Have a wonderful time!
