The hotel is blending into the area a lot better than expected and it looks like they hopefully won't have a last minute rush like they did next door.

I kind of had the feeling that the fact that the opening isn't until August was a result of them learning their lesson from Sapphire Falls and Volcano Bay's openings. I'm thinking this won't be the same rush at the end that we saw with those projects, and won't require further finishing touches after open. Or at least I'm hoping... there's a happy medium between Disney taking way too long on construction and the rush job (not in terms of finished quality, but where they were at the deadline) Uni did on SF and VB. I'm thinking they've found it.The hotel is blending into the area a lot better than expected and it looks like they hopefully won't have a last minute rush like they did next door.
That rooftop bar is gonna be crowded.....I kind of had the feeling that the fact that the opening isn't until August was a result of them learning their lesson from Sapphire Falls and Volcano Bay's openings.

It'll be hard to unseat Sapphire Falls as my preferred hotel, but Aventura is intriguing to me. It's value, but honestly, the rooms and amenities don't seem value, just the location and lack of water taxi. Regardless of where I stay, I will be spending plenty of time at that rooftop bar on my next trip, for sure.
I hope so, I'm booked for HHN
$20/night is pretty cheap for those that want the view.
For me though, I could care less about the view if i'm staying at Aventura. If i'm staying here, it's most likely for something like a 3-night HHN stay. Choosing the cheaper option saves me $60 and can go towards alcohol at the rooftop bar

I wonder if this will be problematic in the upper rooms
This is a seemingly logical thing to say, but all it take is a few weeks of guests complaining for us to lose the lighthouse spotlight forerver.I mean, curtains.
I had a volcano view room two weeks ago. They don't turn out the pool/volcano lights at night. It was fineThis is a seemingly logical thing to say, but all it take is a few weeks of guests complaining for us to lose the lighthouse forever.
That's because it's a park and workers need to be in there third shift maintaining the park. The lights are on in all three parks at night.I had a volcano view room two weeks ago. They don't turn out the pool/volcano lights at night. It was fine
