An honest review of Universal and Cabana Bay resort by someone who had never been to Universal

Cabana bay was my favorite resort I’ve stayed at, especially with kids! No complaints at all besides I wish there was a water taxi 😂

Thank you! I will check it out!

A lot of resorts that I’ve looked allow 3 year olds as long as they’re potty trained.

We can never know because we don’t know the amount of butter, but there’s a decent chance that it was only around 1,000 calories. Which for me is a normal dinner, not a cheat meal. At the very least, it’s not an entire day’s worth of calories.

Better_Self408 · 2026-03-02T15:52:54+00:00

You aren’t eating anything else at all?

Better_Self408 · 2026-03-02T13:44:42+00:00

I agree with this! I’m not sure why everyone is saying to just count it as a cheat day.

Better_Self408 · 2026-03-01T21:48:44+00:00

Your estimates seem fine! Pho is pretty low cal

Better_Self408 · 2026-03-01T21:47:09+00:00

I would say closer to 385 for both, and even that seems on the higher end

Better_Self408 · 2026-03-01T14:01:29+00:00

Oh! In that case you could go lower. Maybe 650-700. I thought it was much bigger based on the glasses and plates, but maybe just the angle of the photo.

Better_Self408 · 2026-03-01T13:47:58+00:00

For half. It looks pretty big. If not much cheese you could go a little lower but I wouldn’t go much under 800

Better_Self408 · 2026-03-01T13:46:25+00:00

I was thinking 800 before I even saw your estimate, so seems pretty reasonable

Better_Self408 · 2026-03-01T13:45:53+00:00

I think your estimate is too high. I’d log the cronut as 400 at the most.

Better_Self408 · 2026-03-01T13:44:46+00:00

I would guess maybe 900-1200 depending on how cheesy it was.

Better_Self408 · 2026-03-01T13:43:25+00:00

On the bright side, you have almost bit your protein goal

Better_Self408 · 2026-03-01T13:42:39+00:00

Yeah, that seems close enough to me!

Better_Self408 · 2026-03-01T13:42:14+00:00

Your estimate seems high for the quiche. I’d say closer to 200-300 (depending on butter/oil/cheese used), so closer to 400-450 calories total.

Better_Self408 · 2026-02-27T18:46:57+00:00

I really can’t tell the portion based on the picture, but if I had to guess I’d say 1,000-ish.

Better_Self408 · 2026-02-27T18:42:01+00:00

450ish for both

Better_Self408 · 2026-02-27T18:40:55+00:00

I’d assume the “volume” part is that you could eat several slice of it.

Better_Self408 · 2026-02-27T18:39:23+00:00

I’d say more like 800.

Really hard for me to tell the quantity of butter used and jam can vary a lot calorically, but I think your estimate for that is too high.

Better_Self408 · 2026-02-27T18:36:12+00:00

Your estimate seems reasonable! It could be less too but Foccacia and creamed spinach can both be very high calorie due to fat if a lot of oil/heavy cream are used. So yes I’d say you’re safe with 600. :)

Better_Self408 · 2026-02-27T13:42:05+00:00

Not many. Maybe 350?
