First, Universal has not stated when they will wrap up the secret Coke flavors specifically, but keep in mind this is for a limited time.

Some of these beverages are available on select Coca-Cola Freestyle machines (but it’s a secret how to access them on the machines!) and some can be ordered at the counter (if you know to ask!).

Here’s how, and where you can order them all!

Universal Orlando's Endless Summer Resort - Dockside Inn and Suites Review

Resort Tour: Universal’s Endless Summer Resort Dockside

Resort Summary

Universal’s Endless Summer Dockside Inn and Suites is divided into two parts: Dockside Inn and Surfside Inn. The name comes from the 1966 documentary on surfing titled, The Endless Summer.

Universal’s Endless Summer Dockside Inn and Suites

This resort is located on Universal Boulevard, a few blocks away from the Universal Orlando theme parks.

This value hotel features 2-bedroom suites that accommodate up to six guests and standard rooms that sleep 4.

There are 1,059 2-bedroom suites and 991 standard rooms with interior corridors.

What is the difference between universal dockside and Surfside?

These two hotels sit across the street from each other on Universal Boulevard. Dockside is larger and has 2 pools. It also has a larger lobby and foodcourt. Surfside is smaller and has 1 pool. Personally, I think Surfside is a little easier to navigate but I like that Dockside is bigger. Surfside and Dockside are comparable in terms of room size, nightly rates and the amenities offered.


Arrival and Lobby Areas

Room Categories

2-Bedroom Suites – These suites, which make up more than half the rooms at both Dockside Inn and Suites & Surfside Inn and Suites, sleep up to six and offer guests an unrivaled value.

With the families suite you no longer need two connecting rooms for extra space.

Standard Rooms - With separate bath and vanity areas, it’s easy for multiple people to get ready at the same time.

Pool View Rooms - Each inviting 313-square-foot room offers two queen beds and sleeps 4.

Room Rates

Standard rooms begin at $79 per night. The 2-Bedroom Suites start as low as $115 per night. Prices vary based on season with mid to late summer having the lowest rates.

Those who you put off their summer vacation plans will likely end up paying more.

Demand for summer travel is off the charts. For example, 99% of Disney Cruise Line's summer and fall cruises from Port Canaveral are now sold out.

The Disney Wish will begin sailing in mid-July so that may help with availability on 3 and 4 night sailings - I should have an update for you on Feb 8th.

Disney Cruise Line - Sold Out Summer 2022

Most 3, 4, and 7 night cruises on Disney Cruise Line are sold out summer through fall 2022.

But even the Disney Fantasy which does 7-night eastern and western Caribbean sailings, is sold out for the summer. Ask me about Royal Caribbean sailings, there is still availability.

At Walt Disney World, nights that are typically available are now sold out. Standard View rooms at Disney's Polynesian Village Resort are almost always available in late August even as a last minute booking.

Disney World Website

Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort | Walt Disney World

Today, they are already sold out for most dates in August. This is a first for me, in all my years of helping clients book Disney vacations I have never seen Disney’s Polynesian Resort sell out in late August.

There are still plenty of options, but I'm seeing that the more economical categories across the cruise lines and Walt Disney World are booking fast.

Contact me today to begin planning your summer vacation. I'll show you the best available options for Disney World plus some great offers from Royal Caribbean and Universal Orlando.
