Surfside Inn and Suites Location
The Surfside Inn and Suites is located across Interstate-4 from Universal Orlando’s main campus So there’s no boat transportation available from the resort and it is not possible to walk to the theme parks etc. (it is technically possible to walk, but it 1.15 miles on sidewalks along surface streets to get to the Universal Bus Station)
The Endless Summer Resorts sit on the property that used to be Orlando’s big water park, Wet ‘n Wild. Dockside Inn and Suites is on the site of the parking lot, while Surfside Inn and Suites is where the water park used to be. Universal purchased the property years ago. All of the specialty drinks at the Sand Bar are named after Wet ‘n Wild’s slides.
Surfside Inn and Suites Transportation
Bus transportation is available to Universal CityWalk’s Bus Depot where you can walk to the parks or transfer to buses bound for all other Universal Orlando destinations.

Our Thoughts on the Endless Summer Resort -Surfside Inn and Suites
The Endless Summer – Surfside Inn and Suites is much smaller than the Dockside across the street, we favor it for this reason. Less crowding is always better.
Surfside is the newest Universal resort to open (summer 2021) after Dockside ((spring 2021) and all the employees are new and excited to be there!
The Endless Summer Resorts are the cheapest two resorts “on property.”
