Avanti Palms Resort and Conference Centre

Look, its a budget hotel. It needs updating but that is happening so it may not be budget much longer. The location is great to Universal Studios. My room was fantastic with an incredible view of the Universal water volcano. I will say the walls and super thin but I travel a lot and I always travel with a noise machine that blocks that majority of it. Its not a 4 star hotel but its a great place at a reasonable rate at a great location.

I’ve stayed here three times in the past couple of months, and overall it’s been a solid experience! Here are a few things to know: Parking & Checkout - Free parking on-site - You can add one extra hour for free on the day of checkout—just call the front desk. - After 12 PM, it’s $25 per additional hour. Amenities & Hours - Pool opens at 7 AM and closes at 11 PM. - The bar closes around the same time. - The front desk is open 24 hours, but there’s usually only one person working overnight, so be kind and patient, they’ve always been super nice to us. - The café in the tower has always been closed during our visits, but the main one near the pool is open. Housekeeping - Not included daily, but you can pay for daily service if you’d like. - A free cleaning is offered every 3 days for longer stays. - Small heads-up: you’ll likely get a knock from housekeeping 15 minutes to an hour before checkout. Rooms & Overall Stay - Rooms are relatively clean, and the staff is friendly. - The walls are a little thin, but most guests are respectful, so it’s not a big issue. Location Highlights - Less than 10 minutes from Universal. - Around 15 minutes from Epic Universe. - 20–30 minutes to Disney World. - 15–20 minutes to the Kia Center. Overall for the price, you really can’t complain. It’s a good value stay with helpful staff and convenient access to all the major Orlando attractions!

Stayed at Wyndham Avanti Resort and Hotel at the beginning of our trip for 4 nights. Check in was super easy when we arrived and the staff on guest services were great. The rooms are a little tired and could do with some TLC, however, for what we paid and the location, you can’t go wrong. The rooms were clean, air con worked and had everything you needed. The pool area was lovely, the pool isn’t heated but is a really big area. Bar staff were also friendly. Location is perfect for the parks and and loads of food places and shops in walking distance. Overall, for the price and location would stay again.

Some of the bad reviews I feel are unfair. People paying 3☆ but expecting 5☆. Stayed at this hotel 3 times in past 12 years. Last time September 2025 for 16 nights. Yes it used to be a bit run down but in the past few years it's been rejuvenated. Rooms modernised. New flooring throughout. Want a chill day it has a large pool area open until 11pm. Pool bar, inside bar and restaurant open until 10:30pm. Fair prices. Pool.bar sometimes shuts earlier. All staff friendly. Plenty of parking. Not far from Universal. If going by car to Universal I suggest getting a UBER. It's a lot cheaper than parking. I found our room clean, but housekeeping only come round every 3 or 4 days. Bathroom could be better. Only down fall is the resort fee (which most hotels in Orlando require). We knew about it before we went. $16 per room per night is a bit much. On top of that you also have the 6.5% sales tax. $271 for 16 nights.

⭐☆☆☆☆ Extremely Disappointed – False Advertising and Terrible Experience I booked this hotel for my birthday stay, hoping for a relaxing and enjoyable experience, but it was the complete opposite. The listing claimed that free breakfast was included — that was a total lie. When I asked about it, the staff had nothing to offer and didn’t seem to care at all. The room setup was terrible and nothing like the photos. It gave more motel vibes than anything close to a “resort.” The furniture looked old, the lighting was bad, and the overall cleanliness was questionable. I honestly did not feel comfortable staying here. For almost $100 a night, I expected something decent, but this place looks and feels ghetto and run-down. I would never have paid that kind of money if I knew what I was getting into. This was supposed to be a special weekend, but the experience completely ruined the mood. Definitely would not recommend this hotel.
