[@ashleyhenderson328]

Praying for the Donnelly fam during this storm!

[@TheeRamblingRose]

YESS im loving that we’re getting fed with content as a disney girl it’s fun to check out universal and see the differences in more thrill rides hope you guys had an amazing time the last time i went universal was 2019 but it is such a fun place love to go again at some point Disney just has my heart 😂❤️

[@ootstv1292]

Praying for you guys stay safe please update us so we know you are safe from these storms

[@JRGroves]

Stay safe Donnelly fam.

[@maskedmarvel]

Stay safe guys! We'll be praying for Florida 🙏

[@danielleayde2330]

The pool at the resort looks relaxing.

[@vivianmartinez4855]

My family and I LOVE going to both Disney and Universal in Florida! We usually stay at the Universal Aventura Hotel and we are in love with it considering my family and I are adults and enjoy the calmness. Staying at the Universal Resorts are so worth it because you can go to the other resorts and use their amenities, but as long as you are staying at one of the Universal Orlando Resort Hotels. Love that y’all had fun !! Love to see more theme park content it makes me want to go back every time !

[@vivianmartinez4855]

Forgot the mention that the early park admission is TOTALLY worth it if the kids would like to hit the popular rollercoasters without extreme wait times, while Mike sleeps in haha😂😂. All the resorts are great! Hope to see you guys going to Aventura next !

[@meredithmcnamee6785]

Universal is amazing and Sapphire Falls is our family’s favorite resort on property! The ease of navigation is so great and there’s always something different to see and experience at Universal. We still LOVE Disney but Uni has been our main go-to since 2016. It’s no longer the place Disney vacationers hop to for a day or two-it’s an immersive vacation in and of itself! 🎉❤👏🏼🍾

[@rmannayr2129]

GLAD THAT THEY ARE TRYING UNIVERSAL!

[@lesliewhitesell7806]

You know I love Disney. We definitely wanna do Universal because we like the thrill rides.

[@robinbuendiger4365]

Great video! We too love Disney, however January we are doing universal. Staying at sapphire falls. We can’t wait! Love your videos!!

[@chloethomas2174]

praying for u all!

[@teresawilliams662]

Hello Donnelly family. Prayers you stay safe during the hurricane.

[@beltonfields2311]

I hope all had fun and enjoy your week

[@KatieSparkles]

How fun! I love that you guys got to check out Universal. I am a fan pf both Disney and Universal movies. I have never had a chance to go to either park yet. But i hope to have a chance to go to both at some point. 🤩

[@alicat5797]

I absolutely love Sapphire Falls, but definitely stay at either Portofino Bay, Royal Pacific, or Hard Rock next time because you get free express passes when you stay at those three. SO worth the extra money to stay at one of the Premiers since express passes are usually $200-300 per person per day!!

i like ryan haircut

[@ecdun3719]

My parents and I stayed at the pacific resort back in 2018. Very fun trip. Loved the hotel and paths/water taxi to the parks. We did have a big issue checking in and I don’t exactly remember what happened but it did take us like 2 hrs to check in to our hotel so that was the only issue. And I managed to talk my parents into going to Disney for a day haha.

[@ladym2674]

I enjoy both parks, but I have to admit I would much rather go to Disney over Universal. The hospitality level is unmatched.

[@TheeRamblingRose]

Disney is just so magical I found on my recent trip in June/july the younger staff didn’t have that magic but it could just be because they aren’t permanent they’re just there for the summer but the older staff 1000% do

[@KylaRodriguez4]

Love your vlogs❤

[@lauriesmith5008]

I hope y’all are safe during this hurricane.

[@rmannayr2129]

UNIVERSAL STUDIOS IS GREAT!

[@pink11sox]

We are Disney people but universal gives me more laid back vibes!

[@JoelCurty-m8r]

Enjoy the park of the park you mY see places that haven't destroyed but many states are with our power .

[@sknox1394]

I went for a day at both Disney and Universal in Japan. Both were great but Disney, I think, was better. Honestly before going I never understood the fascination of Disney, and only went cos my 17yo nephew wanted to go, but oh my did my inner child come out once I got into the park (must be the Disney magic!). I was dragging him round all the rides 😂 Absolutely want to go to Disney in Florida now!

[@littlebigkicker]

[@stephaniesobetski8786]

I Love Disney So Much😊

[@KimberlyMayo-u8h]

[@JoelCurty-m8r]

Glad that you guys are having a greAt there is another storm headed that way of the Milton storm and most of the many state are with our power and the casualty rate is overv220 have died .

[@Brittany.Anderson]

I have never been to Universal, but I am interested in going especially with me being a Harry Potter fan.

[@sknox1394]

The Harry Potter at Universal is amazing. I went to the one in Osaka, Japan and, even though I don’t speak or understand Japanese, I had a fantastic time!

[@katherinerand1892]

I would love to go to either never been. I would probably go to Disney world though as I am in Ontario Canada.

[@1969rhys]
