Royal Pacific Resort: Amenities

Orlando, Florida: Although the Royal Pacific Airlines dreams of a South Pacific getaway may be a dream of the past, the amenities of the Royal Pacific Resort are still a hit with guests staying at the Universal Orlando resort.

The resort features a lagoon style swimming pool that surrounds the waterfront side of the property. The pool features a sandy beach and Royal Bali, an interactive play area for the kids. There is even a poolside bar that features drinks and a limited menu of food. The staff also hosts dive-in movies on select nights of the week where guests can swim in the pool and watch a movie at the same time.

For those looking for activities, the resort features several gaming areas. On the outside there is a croquet lawn, shuffleboard court and a sand volleyball court. Inside there is an arcade featuring many of the arcade favorites. Off-site, the resort has paired with Orlando area golf courses to provide a golfing package for its guests.

If you are looking to continue your workout routine while on vacation, the Royal Pacific Resorts has choices for that also. The Gymnasium is a 5,000 square foot fitness center featuring state of the art equipment. If the treadmill isn’t for you, there are even walking and jogging paths throughout the property.

There is even a kids club for the kids. The Mariners Club is a supervised activity center that is open for the children of the resort. The staff on hand provides activities to entertain the kids while the parents get some alone time.

Keeping with the South Pacific theme, the resort features a torch lighting ceremony with fire dancers and the famous Wantilan Luau. The luau takes play every Saturday throughout the year and Tuesday during the season. The luau features tradition South Pacific entertainment with hula dancers, fire dancers and knife twirlers along side a buffet of South Pacific cuisine.

The many amenities offered at the Royal Pacific Resort adds to the overall Universal Orlando experience. With so much to do at the resort, some guests may have a hard time leaving the resort and heading to the theme parks.
