How To Rent a Cabana

Since the Universal Orlando cabanas are a hot commodity, they sell out FAST. With that being said, call the Universal Reservations Line at 1-877-801-9720 as early as you can to reserve a cabana at Volcano Bay. Preferably, when you purchase your Volcano Bay tickets. You cannot go online to reserve or purchase a Volcano Bay cabana.

Where are the Cabanas Located?

If you look at a Volcano Bay cabana map, you’ll see that these cabanas are spread throughout the park. It’s important to note that when you make a cabana rental at Volcano Bay, you do not get to choose where you want to sit. However, you will be able to request a location at check-in, so it’s helpful to look at the Volcano Bay seating chart and note ahead of time which location you’d like to sit at.

Maybe private cabanas at Volcano Bay are more than you need. Premium seating allows you to have your sheltered area. Although not enclosed like the private Volcano Bay cabana, it’s still a good option if you want to keep to yourself. Premium seating also includes padded lounge chairs as well as an adjustable shade canopy. Plus, there’s a built-in storage lockbox for when you feel like getting up and dipping your toes. Some Volcano Bay premium services include meeting an escort who will guide you to your reserved seating area and getting an attendant who takes care of your food and drink orders!

Since these prices for premium seating are date-based, the price can change exponentially depending on when you visit.

How Far in Advance Should I Book My Universal Cabana or Premium Seating?

Universal’s Volcano Bay has been one of the hottest tickets in all of Orlando. So much so that guests have had a difficult time purchasing one-day tickets at times, for this reason, we always recommend booking your Volcano Bay cabana or premium seating as early as possible! It’s not worth risking it, especially if you know you want to upgrade your day in the park.
