Room was good size. Had a great view. It was like having a small condo with everything you need. Staff was unbelievably awesome. Marilyn, the front desk who checked us in took care of us throughout the whole duration and was absolutely fantastic. Facility lacked activities for kids but if you want something quiet, safe, and roomy this is the place. Would definitely recommend this place.
Stayed on the lake side. Night view was spectacular too. Felt like a bit of Vegas

Overall it was okay. I appreciated having a stackable washer and dryer and 2 seperate bedrooms and bathrooms. I did not, however, sleep well any of the 4 nights. The pillows were really puffy and the walls must be paper thin. I heard our lovely neighbors at all hours of the night. I heard doors shut, laughing, talking, the tv, toilet flushing.

We had a wonderful stay at Westgate Palace Resort with our family. The rooms were super clean, comfortable, and felt very safe, which gave us peace of mind throughout our trip. The location is fantastic — just a short, easy drive to Universal Studios and close to plenty of great dining options. The convenience made everything stress-free, especially with kids. We’ll definitely be back and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!
