Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Laser Maze is newest addition to entertainment line up at Nickelodeon Suites Resort
Nickelodeon Suites Resort is set to debut an all-new laser maze experience, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Laser Lockdown. The first-of-its-kind experience for the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle brand was created exclusively with attraction powerhouse SimEx-Iwerks Entertainment and Nickelodeon. This new offering expands on the typical laser maze model by combining state-of-the-art technology with the highly recognizable Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Laser Lockdown delivers an action-packed adventure, featuring high-visibility lasers and UV lighting, as well as key graphic components, character dialogue and themed music to fully immerse guests into the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle universe. The attraction also incorporates a few surprise special effects that further enhances the storyline and overall experience for guests.
“The Nickelodeon Suites Resort is excited to be the first to showcase the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Laser Lockdown laser maze, which will be a tremendous draw for our hotel,” said Louis Robbins, Managing Director, Nickelodeon Suites Resort. “We can’t wait for our guests to experience this new attraction and enter their “mission score” on the leaderboard to see where they rank against their friends and family.”
“We are proud to continue our partnership with Nickelodeon by utilizing such a well-regarded brand to deliver a one-of-a-kind experience that enhances the overall stay for hotel guests,” says Mark Cornell, Senior Vice President, Attractions Development, SimEx-Iwerks.
The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Laser Lockdown is now open at the Nickelodeon Suites Resort, recruiting guests for an epic mission to thwart the Kraang’s diabolical plan for world domination. With Mikey trapped in a super-secret Kraang Laboratory, it is up to maze participants to disable the security system, all while using their ninja stealth skills to navigate a web of high-tech lasers. The attraction is configured to entertain one or two participants at a time, providing a slightly different experience for guests each time they take on the challenge.
This new attraction marks the second collaboration between SimEx-Iwerks and Nickelodeon Suites Resort. The hotel is also home to a SimEx-Iwerks 4-D Theater that currently features several 4-D Experiences® including SpongeBob SquarePants 4-D: The Great Jelly Rescue and Dora & Diego’s 4-D Adventure.

The Summer of Shell at the Nick Hotel, featuring the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (TMNT), is making the summer of 2014 one to remember!

Our guests are going to be yelling ‘booyakasha’ the moment they arrive.”
The Summer of Shell is full of great new experiences, so let’s look at the new things that you can expect to see!
The Nick Hotel debuted ten newly designed Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle themed guest suites sure to make any TMNT fan happy!
The first special event of the Summer of Shell was the TMNT Retro Weekend which was held June 13-15, 2014 that featured the original voice cast of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles coming together to celebrate the 30th anniversary of theTMNT comic book!
The TMNT Retro Weekend was full of meet and greets, photo opporunities, and Q & A Sessions with the voice talent that was great!
Around the Nick Hotel Pool, you can see new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle artwork, and catch a slew of new fun!
A new high-energy and fun ‘Turtle Power’ poolside show has debuted that happens at the Lagoon Pool that’s full of dancing, fun, and TMNT goodness.
The “Dive In” Movie
Also at the pool will be special glow parties, games for the whole family, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle encounters, and “dive in” movies.
You can also grab a bite to eat with turtles at a new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles themed dinner show where you can dine with your favorite heroes and footsoldiers. Antonio’s Pizza-Rama Dinner is available at an extra cost, but it looked like a lot of fun!
Coming soon to the Summer of Shell, are two more additions that will be great for TMNT fans!
In July, a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles themed Laser Maze will be debuting.
Then later in the summer on August 9th, A Guinness World Record “Largest Gathering of People Dressed as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” event will be happening which we’ll be brining you more information about later!

New Nick Hotel SpongeBob Squarepants Breakfast Buffet and 4-D Adventure Movie
Nickelodeon Suites Resort is unveiling some fun new Nick Hotel SpongeBob Squarepants entertainment experiences to make this summer even better at the Resort!
We had the opportunity to have breakfast with some of our favorite characters who live under the sea!
At the SpongeBob’s Bikini Bottom Breakfast, at the Nicktoon Café, you’ll be treated to a character breakfast buffet with options for the pickiest of eaters! You can see a full menu here.
When high tide rolls in, so do some of your favorite characters! Every 30 minutes SpongeBob, Patrick, Mr. Crabs, Squidward, Patrick, and (my favorite) Sandy Cheeks come out to perform a few dances with the patrons of the Café.
In between the performances, the characters are available for photos and fun. All of the kids…and adults…really had a great time interacting with the characters.
The breakfast is super cute and fun and I really enjoyed the made-to-order omelets and SpongeBob Waffles!
The Character Breakfast is available daily from 7 a.m. to 11 a.m in the Nicktoon Café, which is really convenient to get to from most of the Nickelodeon Suites Resort.
Prices for SpongeBob’s Bikini Bottom Breakfast are Adults (13 and up) $24.00 plus tax, Children (4-12) $14.00 plus tax, Children under 3 eat free, and it’s important to know that parties of 6 or more will have 18% gratuity automatically added.
Reservations are required if you would like to hula your way in!
After Breakfast it was time for the premiere of SpongeBob SquarePants 4-D Movie: The Great Jelly Rescue!
The 4-D Attraction joins SpongeBob with his friends in tow on a rollicking adventure when the villainous Plankton abducts all the Jellyfish with his pollution-belching contraption. It is up to SpongeBob SquarePants to save the day, free the Jellyfish and destroy Plankton’s terrible machine. See how SpongeBob’s big heart puts him oceans above the rest!
I have to say that my favorite part of SpongeBob SquarePants 4-D Movie: The Great Jelly Rescue is that there are several possible endings and you never know which one you’ll get to see!
It’s all in digital 3-D with awesome 4-D effects like bubbly bubbles, windy wind, and more sensory surprises.
Again, this is a super cute 4-D movie that is sure to make everyone in your family smile!
If you are staying at the Nickelodeon Suites Resort and would like to experience SpongeBob SquarePants 4-D Movie: The Great Jelly Rescue, you need to buy a wristband for $13.95 per person that is good for the length of your stay.
These Nick Hotel SpongeBob Squarepants entertainment options,SpongeBob Bikini Bottom Breakfast and SpongeBob SquarePants 4-D Movie: The Great Jelly Rescue, are two great ways to make your stay at the Nickelodeon Suites Resort even better this summer!
