Elaborate paintings decorate exteriors, and faux fishing boats are anchored in the real-water harbor. Amenity highlights: Eight restaurants and bars located around the waterfront piazza are popular with locals as well as guests. A full-service spa, three swimming pools, two bocce ball courts, Campo Portofino for kids, and a full-service business center are all available to guests here. The hotel also welcomes pets with a program that includes beds, toys, pet food menus, and pet sitting and walking programs. Universal Studio®?s two theme parks are just a water-taxi ride away.

The hotel also provides pagers for teenagers, which allow them the freedom to be on their own and, at the same time, the ability to stay in contact with their families.
