[@carlyejameson1752]

Molly “let’s get balloon hats!” Alan “I don’t like the way they feel on my head”. Molly “maybe after drinks later then”. Later after strong tasty beverages, Obtain crazy balloon hats. Alan “where’s your balloon hat?” Molly (who’s idea it was in the first place) “I gave it to a child” 😂😂☠️ This video is peachy king 😂 you guys are hilarious and your laughs brighten my entire day. Loving the Cabana Bay content!!

[@Jason-g6q]

This resort has the most personality I’ve ever seen. While Disney is currently gutting theming from their resorts Universal is definitely rocking the themes.

[@SeedMoney8432]

Once Epic Universe is open…..Disney World becomes obsolete unless they wake up and bring that magic back

[@huntersherwood4845]

Looking at the new malt shop in this video versus the carousel coffee shop that opened at disney’s boardwalk that literally looks like a hospital cafeteria… Universal is outpacing Disney’s

[@ParksWithMark]

The theming might be fun but the bedding is absolutely TERRIBLE.

[@Alison73851]

The theming is nice but that room looks tiny! I can’t imagine more than 2 people staying in there.

[@Jason-g6q]

@@Alison73851 not true we usually have four people staying in a room it’s spacious but we don’t spend terrible amount of time in the room

[@jessicalyn84]

Can we please get Molly a Peachy King shirt? That moment between the two of you was amazing.

[@MicheleKlinger]

Molly and Alan resort tour adventures are such a delight to watch. I love Cabana Bay so much. The amenities and dining you get for a value resort is mindblowing.

[@blackbeard6423]

It is an incredible hotel. I cried last time we had to leave and my wife was seriously unhappy. I just love the Cabana Bay Hotel and Resort that much. My favorite restaurant was the grill. The burgers were some of the best I've ever had in my entire life. GO to the CABANA!

[@bridgetclement2968]

Resort having a BOWLING ALLEY Is a Dream in itself for Me!!!! Especially since I'm a BOWLER

[@itsreelydalin]

Ngl, this video has easily some of my favorite Molly and Alan moments. ICONIC, peak comedy x infinity. Would laugh again

[@jdrew5367]

Molly is always surprising us with the English language! I’ll say it again. We all have our moments. Thank you Mammoth.

[@RTBird2]

YES to visiting Weeki Wachee to see the mermaids! A "Things To Do In Central Florida That Ain't The Parks" series would be neat.

[@prezhenz6969]

I’m just gonna say that I stayed at Cabana Bay and Animal Kingdom Lodge both on my recent trip. And although I enjoyed the animals and general theming, CB felt like that idealized resort vacation experience that I grew up hearing about in the 80s/90s

[@fafolguy]

The ongoing joke of the blur when Alan eats a hotdog slays me 😅

[@taraharvey3252]

I'm dying!

[@learningintherainhomeschool]

Great review! We were there the first few weeks of December and we really enjoyed Cabana Bay. We were in a family suite for the 5 of us. The bus rides to the parks were so quick and easy. I don't think we had to wait more than a minute or two for a bus the entire time we were there and we went to the parks 9 days of our trip. We were at the Swan Reserve in May of this year for our Disney trip and the kids far preferred Cabana Bay and Universal. There were characters at Cabana Bay, there was a free balloon animal artist most evenings, the pools were warm and wonderful, and the staff was amazing. For us, we booked through Costco and got a great deal for the family suite and 2 park tickets.

[@catherinema7047]

Now this is what value resort should be. Disney needs to learn from Universal.

[@TheJennC]

Gotta love a Molly and Alan vid - you two are too funny together. I stayed at Cabana Bay for a girl's trip a few years ago - we loved everything about it, and have said multiple times we'd absolutely stay there again.

[@angd4268]

We stayed at Cabana Bay in 2021. It was my first Universal Experience having been a Disney person my entire life. Loved the resort. My husband has celiac and was nervous about dining but they killed it. He hate and never got sick. We really enjoyed the resort and didn't even explore all of it. Loved being steps from Volcano Bay. Excellent video because now I know what to look for next time.

[@jeniboyns]

This is really nostalgic for me because this time last year I was just two weeks away from my visit! I did a split stay with four nights at Cabana Bay and six nights at All Star Music. I've stayed in the deluxe resorts at Universal, which I love, but you just can't beat the value of Cabana Bay for all that you get with it. I walked to the parks each day and it took me two minutes to get from my room to the Cabana Bay entrance to Volcano Bay - I was the first guest in the park! Also, it was my birthday during my stay and my boyfriend sent flowers to the resort which were carefully looked after by Bell Services while I was in the parks that day ❤.

[@laurenjp1491]

Molly just had a HIMYM “chameleon” moment with peachy keen. 🤣❤️ Also those balloon hats are epic. 🎈

[@FunctioningAdult]

We were here the week before and completely blown away. I love this hotel for the value, offerings, and theming. The only downside is there's no hotel-park water taxi hotel and it's a bit of a far walk on the garden path, but the shuttle is constantly running and we never had to wait. Thank you for bringing back all the great memories and adding your own hilarious personalities. ❤️ watching Molly & Allen have so much fun with each other!

[@emmapism]

You can walk to Sapphire Falls and jump on their water taxi. It’s my fave thing to do :)

[@meglf2234]

Molly and Alan's buzzed tour of the gift shop! Fantastic! When Molly calls Alan gross I died!

[@sarahmcclellan8156]

Dying over the blurred out hot dog bite!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@anonymous.hippopotamus]

You guys are my favorite Internet couple. I would love to hear more about how you guys met, etc. Anything you feel like sharing, as you guys have such great chemistry, I would just love to hear more. Hope you guys have a great day! And I am convinced, I can't wait to stay here for a staycation! Thanks guys!

[@cc1526]

Don’t feel bad Molly. I lived most of my life thinking the phrase “last ditch effort” was “last stitch effort.” In my defense, people say it so fast that the st in last runs over into ditch, making it sound like stitch. And I never questioned it because I figured “last stitch effort” was related to the phrase “hanging on by a thread” so it meant that it was a last stitch effort before it broke 😆 ngl I kinda prefer my version and explanation. 😅

[@Mammoth_Club]

You have a point there...

[@PotterFreak22]

24:08 That diner is HUGE! We were all just mindblown at how much food they had there! My dad loved the huge TVs and the dining room cuz he grew up during that era so that was some nice nostalgia for him. The fries are some of THE BEST EVER! Perfect for a hot day coming into the hotel and you didn’t drink enough water! I even put extra salt on them which I NEVER DO TO ANY FRIES EVER! I think we mainly stuck to sandwiches there and I think we even got pizza one time? My parents are a big fan of getting what you need at the grocery store that you want to eat so you don’t spend quite as much money on food cuz it is expensive compared to the groceries but more money for merch that way! 30:25 We didn’t do the bowling but we did take a tour around the top floor one day. The only thing I don’t understand is why you would want to work out BEFORE OR EVEN AFTER walking around the park all day! I got my years worth of walking in just a day cuz we walked around so much! And then did that for the other 5 days we were there! Took a break in the middle just to chill at the pool and the lazy river cuz we were all tired as fudge! 35:14 COOL! A new malt shop to visit! My dad loves malts! This DEFINITELY wasn’t there when we were there! I don’t remember what in that place actually but I don’t think it was this cool! I do like my smoothies and they have some good options! We don’t drink drink but we did see the Swizzle Lounge when we were checking in! The malt shop is going on the list for a future visit to check out! Don’t know when we’ll be able to go but it’s on the ever growing list of new things to do since watching this channel! I COMPLETELY AGREE 100%! Cabana Bay Beach Resort is the GREATEST HOTEL EVER IN UNIVERSAL! And that malt shop makes the smoothies TO ORDER IN FRONT OF YOU! I’m in heaven sign me up! I love fresh made smoothies and fresh food! I don’t think I’ve ever seen a smoothie shop ANYWHERE we’ve been! That just makes the whole place even better! And yes I agree that having to go to a real person job while you’re on vacation is lame. Especially a meeting! Yuck! Stuck in a stuffy boardroom all day when you could be having so much more fun!

[@hankbug]

"You know what I want after I work up a sweat?.....DAIRY" 🤣Love these two together and every single Mammoth Clan video, I've watched several times.

I'm so happy to see your resort review of Cabana Bay! I love when you do resort reviews and the addition of Alan makes it even better!! ❤️ We might have to try this resort on our next visit.

[@therealjennaclark]

The blurred out hotdog consumption gets me every time 😂. Great vid!

I never wanted this video to end!! You guys put so much into your videos I'm sad when they are over. This hotel is incredible! Thanks for this wonderful video today, Happy New Year Molly Alan and Matt❤️

[@nikkim449]

We are doing one day/night at Universal capping off our 3-night stay in Disney and this helped me pick Cabana Bay as our resort. Thanks Molly and Alan!

[@denisemcgilvrey3966]

We stayed at Cabana Bay back when it first opened in 2014 and have stayed about 10 times since. We just love this resort and the Florida resident discount makes it an amazing value. We are Disney die hards as well, but for the money Cabana Bay has it all. The theming is fun for the whole family and there are so many activities. Plus all five of us have been able to to comfortably stay in one room when booking a suite. Can’t say enough good things.

[@mdf3530]

I love it when Molly and Alan are together in a video. They are such spazzes around each other.

[@rachelw1076]

Synchronized spazzing - couple goals!

[@Rbrinson87]

So much fun to watch. You all are such a joy to watch.

[@Groovygrace365]

I haven’t tuned in in a couple weeks due to the holidays and watching this video after not seeing you guys for a couple of weeks is such a delight! Your thoughts and commentary are peachy king!

[@SarahWalter17]

Omg please do more of these universal resort tours! I am considering one of the resorts that comes with the universal express passes

[@disneygirljamie9974]

My daughter, who is 18, does not enjoy Disney content anymore HOWEVER, she really enjoys Mammoth and I'm thrilled! Molly and Alan are so entertaining and fun! We are currently trying to figure out Alans career....top 3 - Lawyer bc he communicates/articulates so well, Medical field like an RN or medical rep who teaches doctors how to use equipment OR a therapist. ( hope you guys get a laugh ) Also, your editor knocks it out of the park.

[@cc1526]

I think he majored in business :)

[@olliejilliangil8382]

I feel like he is an IT guy of some sort

[@ariannemcardle550]

I believe he and max work in Learning & Development in corporate america! So using the educator/speaking skills for sure

[@SamWiseTheGrey]

I recently stayed in a family suite at Cabana Bay with my Husband and daughter and we all LOVED IT!! We also loved Pop Century, but all enjoyed Cabana Bay even more. Amazing hotel with tons to do, great staff and great food. 1000000% recommend!!!!

[@janemcdaniel7502]

this video warms my heart!! I have stayed at CB many times for my december theme parks visits! I love the retro christmas decor and such an amazing value. and I agree, this is by far my favorite value resort in orlando. and the walk to volcano bay is a huge PLUS!

[@bmarden77]

I think this has been my favorite vlog so far! I laughed out loud. It was really "peachy king!". Happy New Year!

[@DocRandi]

Great video. I enjoyed watching this video, it was like hanging out with Molly and Alan at Cabana Bay. It would be cool to see a staycation at Portofino Bay. A more romantic, upscale setting would make a great setting for another staycation video. Happy New Year Mam fam.

[@KIM-v2p1o]

Another great video, dare I say, peachy king😅😅😅. You guys are a hoot, keep up the great work.

[@brandonvieira8114]

Peachy King absolutely killed me, never heard anyone say it before but the logic behind it (chefs kiss)

[@kreyna15]

My bf and I recently stayed at the Animal Kingdom Lodge. Beautiful scenery and all but when we came home from the park, nothing was open. No food, no water. So strange. No where to get a cup of coffee in the morning. Just reminded me how great and convenient Cabana Bay was. So nice to be able to get food after the park or a Starbucks in the morning when I’m cranky! And cheap too. Great video Molly & Alan!

[@crysi7490]

I love this so much. Molly and Alan make an amazing team and the koala shade from Max was just a giggle moment. LOL

[@kdillenbeck89]

I really loved this one, I laughed out loud more times than I can count. Pretty sure I'm going to say 'peachy king' for the rest of my life knowing not a soul will understand 🤣 Cabana Bay is the only resort I've stayed at over in Universal, so this was great info to know you guys rate it so highly. I was definitely impressed when I stayed. I'd love to see one of the more expensive resorts if you ever get a chance to show us one of those!

[@lisad5372]

So much fun to watch this video! LOVED the balloon hats! They were "Peachy King" hahaha My big question to you Molly....How did you bowl with those nails!?!

[@a_savage-manatee]

I can vouch for the excellent service when you text the front desk. One of our kids was sick in the middle of the night, and they were incredibly gracious and helpful in getting some supplies up to our room.

[@MelissaJSams]

I appreciate all of the King Pin references. Also as a fellow color blind person, I did see a difference in the old fashion drinks.

I stayed at Sapphire Falls last time I was in Orlando and loved it. The water taxi to the parks is an amazing perk. Cabana Bay looks absolutely amazing for a prime value resort! I am definitely impressed.

[@hillsizz]

Just wanted to say I appreciated and cracked up at the multiple Parks & Rec clips. Also, peachy "king" will now enter my vocabulary 🍑👑😆

[@juliawaters3335]

The steak and chimichurri sauce is a MUST have

[@TripNWithRed]

I'm always excited to see you post a new video. Cabana Bay Beach Resort is one of our favorites. We love the aesthetics, location, rooms and food. Universal hotels are way more affordable than Disney World resort hotels.

[@pattipayne8202]

This video is a win all around

[@LPlandOFazul]

It's so funny to me how Cabana Bay has changed over the years. 7 years ago, I stayed there and it was very expensive and the room was tiny. I think it was between 250-300 for a night, but this wasn't long after it opened. The second time I stayed, I was in a family suite and it was 180. A MUCH better value. I definitely need to go back because I enjoyed it the first time but was put off by the price. Glad it's much more reasonable now.

[@shaunahogsmeade6162]

Hot take: Aventura > Cabana Bay. Aventura is a shorter walk to the parks (or hop on Sapphire's boat), better "cafeteria" food, Starbucks line is half the size of Cabana's in the morning, the rooftop bar is 🤩, and the rooms feel a bit more high end. They cost about the same, so it's a no-brainer for me!

[@karenpetersen4293]

i LOVE the hotel reviews. Keep them coming!! And thank you!

[@lithiaknopp4019]

Cabana Bay is def our favorite hotel for value, accommodations and all around enjoyment. Lazy River with a drink in your hand cant be beat!

[@karijobishop212]

I'm so glad you're doing this review at this particular time, I've been to this resort twice myself and really like it. I'll be back there again in Feb. And am so looking forward to it. Coming from Maine, I appreciate the Florida weather in what's a most miserable month in Maine. Thanks for the content. 😊❤

[@karijobishop212]

Molly, or Alan, the alcoholic drink cups you purchased, will they work in the soda machines? I've purchased the soda cups, but I actually like your drink cups better. 🥤 😉

[@Mammoth_Club]

I don't believe so. Our bartender only mentioned the bar locations and listed cocktails. however you may be able to pay for sodas at the bars and use them.

[@karijobishop212]

Thanks for the response guys, I suspected that was the case, I'll probably buy one of those cups anyway! 😆 I mean, why not?
