Universal’s Volcano Bay is a water park with a tropical theme located in Orlando at Universal Orlando Resort. The water park opened in 2017 and is based around an artificial volcano called Krakatau that stands tall at 200 ft (61 m). Krakatau is home to three slides, including the nation’s tallest body slide. There is a range of other rides to enjoy within the park. Rainforest Village offers a number of thrill slides, such as a raft ride that mimics white-water rafting. In River Village, you can enjoy the lazy river or head to a play area for toddlers. If you just want to relax, Wave Village offers cabanas and calm pools. After a day of enjoying the water park, you’ll want a place to unwind. So we’ve put together a list of the top Airbnbs near Universal’s Volcano Bay, Florida. Read on to explore the options.
