ORLANDO — Universal Orlando Resort’s Universal’s Endless Summer Resort – Surfside Inn and Suites had its grand opening today as the destination’s first Value Category hotel.

Universal Orlando says it now offers a hotel “for every style, every family and every budget”, complete with exclusive theme park benefits and a seamless vacation experience. The property is the 7th on-site hotel for Universal Orlando.

Surfside Inn and Suites offers guests a relaxed and easy retreat, says UO, with a surf and beach vibe throughout the hotel. The 750-room hotel is the destination’s seventh property in partnership with Loews Hotels & Co., with rates starting at $73 per night for a seven-night stay.

At Surfside Inn and Suites, guests can experience all that the hotel and Universal Orlando have to offer including:

2 Bedroom Suite

. 2-Bedroom Suites: These suites, which make up more than half the rooms at Surfside Inn and Suites, sleep up to six. With two separate rooms, families no longer need connecting rooms for extra space, says UO. There’s also a kitchenette area, a picnic table for meals and hanging out, and a bathroom with separate bath and vanity areas so multiple people can get ready at once. The 2-Bedroom Suites start at $111 for a 7-night stay.

. Exclusive Theme Park Benefits: Guests receive exclusive benefits including Early Park Admission to the theme parks, quick complimentary resort-wide shuttle bus transportation, charging privileges with their room key and more.

. Beach Break Café: This casual dining food court is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Inspired by food trucks, local joints and backyard BBQs, Beach Break Cafe’s menu will be “super affordable”, says UO, with most dishes under $12.

. Surfboard-Shaped Pool: The zero entry pool is in the shape of a surfboard and also boasts a laid-back pool bar, the Sand Bar, which serves refreshing and beach-inspired beverages. Additional hotel amenities include a Universal Orlando Vacation Planning Center, Universal Studios Store, game room and fitness center.

. Staying in the Action: Guests who stay at Universal’s Endless Summer Resort – Surfside Inn and Suites are located just minutes away from Universal Orlando’s three theme parks – Universal Studios Florida, Universal’s Islands of Adventure and Universal’s Volcano Bay – as well as its dining and entertainment complex Universal CityWalk. Complimentary resort-wide shuttle bus transportation is available.
