Our little family has just returned from a wonderful vacation to Florida! While I am more than a little sad to be home already, at least I have some great memories (and pictures) to get me by until next year. We visited the Orlando area and were very fortunate to get to spend a night at
Nickelodeon Suites Resort. I have fond memories of watching Nickelodeon as a kid, and now my girls watch, so when the opportunity to visit the hotel presented itself, I was pretty excited to book our stay.

Our Room was Up There Somewhere!

We booked a "Premium 2-Bedroom Spongebob Suite" which faced the Lagoon Pool area which was pretty great. The suite itself was perfect for our family. You enter through the living room/kitchenette area which is a good size. The living room area included a pull-out sofa (which we did not need on this trip), a chair, and a 32-inch flat screen television. The kitchenette area included the sink, mini refrigerator, microwave, and coffeemaker.

The master bedroom was a private room and included a very comfortable queen bed, a desk/vanity, a closet (with a safe, iron and ironing board inside), a dresser, and another 32-inch flat screen television. There was no Spongebob wall mural, but there was a pretty cool painting hanging.

So, the room was great, but honestly our family's favorite part of the hotel was the Lagoon Pool. There were lots of people present, but it did not feel over crowded at all. Drew had a blast playing in the water tower area, which was designed for children (of all ages) that are 40-inches and taller. Reese, who was not tall enough to enjoy the water tower, did have fun in the pool and there was a special, smaller scaled play area for children that are 40-inches and smaller. There were plenty of chairs to sit and relax in, towels and life jackets available at the poolside desk, burgers, hotdogs, sandwiches, and drinks available at the Lagoon Grill and Bar, lifeguards, basketball court with multi-height hoops, a miniature golf course (which we LOVED), and cabanas (if that's your idea of relaxing poolside and you make a reservation).

In addition to the Lagoon Pool,
Nickelodeon Suites Resort offers a ton of fun stuff for families. You can shop at the mall, enjoy a movie at the 4-D Experience Theater, Meet and Greet your favorite Nickelodeon characters (we got to meet the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles after we finished swimming the night we arrived and some of the Spongebob Gang the next morning during the character breakfast!), get SLIMED, and so
much more.
One of the things we missed out on, but really wish we could have participated in, was
Double Dare Live. Double Dare was my favorite Nickelodeon show growing up, and I would have loved to be in the audience. If our girls were old enough, I might have even considered having us "try out" to be contestants!

ReplyDeleteYou are right latanya! This Place is looks like so much fun. The images of Nickelodeon Suites Resort is really amazing. I have been visit in Orlando many times before new jersey to niagara falls tours. I'm never going in this resort to the fun places. After reading your blog I must going in Nickelodeon Suites Resort on next month with my kids. Thanks for this sharing.
DeleteIt looks like you had a lot of fun there. I tried searching for this hotel in Orlando in discount websites but I did not find it. Have you used a promo code when booking?
ReplyDeleteHad never thought about staying at this resort before... May have to take a closer look the next time we're back in Orlando visiting Universal
ReplyDeleteThe best arrangements are accessible in online sell-offs. You can offer on an Orlando Timeshare bargain and show signs of improvement cost than you'll ever be offered at a timeshare visit.parks tour in Orlando
