“Exceptional Service from Sylvia – She Truly Went Above and Beyond”

Sep 12, 2026Hend S

We had a wonderful stay at Universal’s Cabana Bay Beach Resort. The resort was clean, comfortable, and very family-friendly. My kids loved the atmosphere and amenities, and we had a great experience overall. A special thank you to Sylvia Regina Ferreira Sardinha, the Housekeeping Manager. She was extremely kind, professional, and helpful. She went above and beyond for our family and even personally helped clean and prepare our room herself. She also gave us ice cream vouchers, which made my kids so happy and excited. Her kindness and personal attention truly made our stay extra special.
