Step into a coastal, seaside oasis in Universal's Monaco Bay Resort and Spa - exclusively at the Universal Australia Resort. The moment you turn off of Resorts Drive and into the Drop Off overhang of the resort, you are immediately immersed in the scenic, bay-side beauty - with bright colors and meticulously crafted details along the facade of the main lobby. As you walk into the 3 story lobby, you will find the ornate architecture of a time long ago - as you step into the oval lobby and gaze up at the stain glass domed rooftop with artistic drawings scattered around it, giving off a quaint Victorian feel.

 

A large chandelier hangs from the central point of the lobby - glistening with over 64 different light structures all fawning from the golden center. Comfortable chairs and couches encircle the chandelier, with a foliage arrangement in a central hub at the exact center of the lobby. Guests can sit around, check-in at the desk to the left of the entrance, or visit the concierge where you can book tickets, make dining reservations, among a variety of other amenities exclusive to Monaco Bay. Around the lobby are several areas of interest, in particular various quick service pastry shop and tea shops, as well as a grand staircase that takes you up to the upper balconies. Gazing into the main atrium from the upper levels, you can see in detail the unmistakably gorgeous designs on the railings and beams, and you can take the hallways off of the 2nd floor towards any of the guest wings as well.
