Large rooms, quiet resort with more of an "adult" feel. IMHO it IS worth paying for a preferred room, especially if you plan to partake of the food court or refillable mugs often as it can be quite the hike from outlying areas.

Our favorite area was Jamaica, and I would pay extra for a water view there, just because it would mean not being too far away from the central area. Not sure if Janaica is considered "preferred" category. The only thing I didn't like about CBR was the wretched food at the food court. Beyond bad. ~Amanda

Ron Ng hated and said it should be closed down. ;-) Ive not heard any specific complaints from friends who have stayed there. The only bad thing I ever heard was they is it for overflow during Pop Warner. -- - RODNEY Next WDW Vacation? Who knows!

Having stayed there recently, I can honstly tell you I loved this resort! We were in Trnidad South.... the very last, last, last section! Having a car made it no big deal to get to the "big" pool area. food court, and gift shop which were in a "central" location. I had my son and two grand rugrats with me and when they saw the pirate room we had been issued, they went bonkers!! Especially 8 year old Patrick. The resort seemed quiet, not alot of kids running wild..... except at the kid's area of the pool. The large pool has two hot tubs and a children's play area complete with one of those huge water dumping buckets they all seem to love. It also serves to keep many of the kids over in that area which leaves a bit more room for the adults in the perfect temperature pool. The food court has everything you would expect a food court to have. From fresh fruit to freshly baked pizza. The room seemed more spacious than the other resorts we have stayed in with more drawers than other rooms. The room also had a small coffee maker and a fridge. Having done WDW twice in the prior six weeks (Once with my neice and her family and once with my sister and my daughter) prior to this trip, my plan was to NOT do WDW except for Downtown Disney. Instead, we took the easy drive to Universal to finish out our 4 days pass (we had spent two nights on Universal porperty to take advantage of the fastpass perk). We also drove to Kennedy Space Center one day and took three days for pool days and just enjoyed the Disney atmosphere. I would love to stay there again. It makes a wonderful getaway whether or not you do the parks. I'm sure there must be other ways to get to the central building; however, if you have a car, it's a no brainer. Sorry, Ron Ng, you were off base on this one! --Fizzie |
