The details of Easter 2023 have yet to be announced. Until then, enjoy 2022’s information!
Easter at Universal Orlando is exactly like how the company handles that other food- and family-centric holiday, Thanksgiving – none of the theme or water parks hold any celebrations, but the resort’s hotels certainly do.
Portofino Bay Hotel, Hard Rock Hotel, Royal Pacific Resort, and Sapphire Falls Resort all feature “the perfect Easter brunch,” with a plethora of selections. We’ve broken them all down for you below for your culinary pleasure – just please leave a good word with the Easter Bunny for us.
Then, once you’re done eating your fill, there are also Easter egg hunts and other assorted activities at all of the hotels, including Cabana Bay Beach Resort. Just please note that you have to be an overnight hotel guest in order to participate in any of these.

Universal Orlando’s Easter 2022 – brunches
Only the premier and preferred on-site hotels offer an Easter buffet, with each serving up a slight variation on the theme (Sapphire Falls’s brunch, for example, is distinctly Caribbean). Not to be outdone, one of the prime value resorts, Aventura Hotel, also gets in on the Easter action, but it’s by no means a buffet, and it’s limited to just a few plates.
Portofino Bay Hotel
Trattoria del Porto
Portofino’s tasty restaurant will have a carving station, chilled seafood display, salad and cheese bar, and a pasta station on hand from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm, along with family-friendly entertainment that includes a live musician.
Adults: $75, children (ages 3 – 9): $35.

Hard Rock Hotel

The Kitchen’s “delicious spread” this year will run from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm and will include appetizers, salads, and a carving station. Entertainment is provided in the form of live music.

Islands Dining Room
Islands Dining Room is offering up an all-you-can-eat buffet from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm that includes a raw bar, sushi, and favorite breakfast foods.

Universal Orlando’s Easter 2022 – egg hunts
In previous years, six of the Universal Orlando hotels got into the Easter spirit with egg hunts and, occasionally, other related activities for children and their families. This year the festivities at the hotels are limited to just the brunch offerings. Hopefully, as Covid restrictions ease and supply-chain issues begin to wane, the egg hunts can return!
