Loews Royal Pacific Resort

Rooms Loews Royal Pacific has three main types of rooms: Standard, Club Level, and Suites with accessible options as well. The most common room type is the Standard, which can vary in view and location but otherwise comes with everything you need for an enjoyable and relaxing stay.

Royal Caribbean vs Disney Cruise Lines

Choosing the right cruise line for your vacation can be a daunting task, especially when comparing two giants like Disney Cruise Line and Royal Caribbean Cruise Line. Both offer unique experiences and cater to different preferences. Here’s a detailed comparison covering some of the most important aspects for travelers. Main Dining Room Disney Cruise Line : Disney offers rotational dining, where guests rotate between three themed main dining rooms, each with its own unique menu and ambiance. This ensures a varied dining experience throughout the cruise. Animator's Palate on the Disney Fantasy Royal Caribbean : Royal Caribbean features traditional dining with set times and assigned seating, as well as My Time Dining, which offers more flexibility. Their main dining rooms are elegant and offer a diverse menu. Buffet Dining Disney Cruise Line : The buffet dining options, Cabanas or Marceline Market (depending on the ship), offer a wide variety of dishes, including seafood, salads, and ...

Pym’s Test Kitchen & Tasting Lab

In the heart of Avengers Campus, Pym's Test Kitchen offers a dining experience like no other. Inspired by the world of Ant-Man and the Wasp, this innovative eatery plays with size and proportions, creating a whimsical atmosphere and unique dishes that are a feast for both the eyes and the palate.  Upon entering, you're greeted by a giant pretzel that sets the tone for the playful, larger-than-life theme. The menu features a mix of oversized and shrunken-down items, from the gigantic Pym-ini sandwich to the bite-sized Quantum Pretzel.  One highlight is the Not So Little Chicken Sandwich, where the chicken filet comically outsizes the bun, adding a fun twist to a classic dish. The Impossible Spoonful is another must-try, offering plant-based meatballs served in a sizable spoon, making for an eye-catching and delicious treat.  Dessert lovers with a sweet tooth must try the Chocolate Candy Bar—an indulgent, oversized treat that brings a delightful end to your meal. This desse...

Resort Hopping - EPCOT Area

While the EPCOT resorts don’t have an eye-catching Monorail wizzing by, they are an easy walk around the lake apart which can be even better on a beautiful Florida day. If you take the Skyliner to EPCOT or exit EPCOT via the International Gateway (between UK and France) you are just moments away from some great resorts to explore. I typically just walk because it’s faster, but there is a Friendship Boat that will go from EPCOT’s International Gateway to Disney's Boardwalk, Yacht and Beach Club, and the Swan and Dolphin before continuing on to Hollywood Studios.  Disney's Beach Club Resort Disney’s Beach Club is light and bright and has a few things worth stopping by for. Beaches and Cream out by the pool is a fast favorite, serving up burgers and shakes along with the famous Kitchen Sink sundae. But they also have a walk up ice cream window to grab a fun shake and stroll along the lake. During the holidays, pop inside the main lobby to see a Gingerbread carousel and get some h...
