(CLOSED) Disney's CONTEMPORARY RESORT and BAY LAKE TOWER INFORMATION THREAD

[MrsBlovesDisney]

Yes, the mirror is still there and could you hang your bag on the ladder-style towel rack?

Wow!! Thx Cook!! You are such an incredible wealth of knowledge!!!

I'm sure I'll have no problem finding a spot to hang the bag! Glad to hear the mirror is still there.....my eyes are getting worse and worse these days.

We're down to less than 24 hours!!! I can hardly stand it!!

So Jealous!! Enjoy! Will you report back?

 

[Happyjen27]

I see from the photos from Fantasia Market, there are gallon sized waters available. I am overjoyed at this!!

Does anyone know the price? Even an estimate would be welcome. I was going to do Garden Grocer to get water, but now that it's available at Fantsasia, it might be cheaper to buy from Disney than build up an order to equal 40 bucks plus shipping.

Checking into BLT in 3days. Thanks for all the info in this thread! its been nice to keep up to date on everything going on at the resort

Hoping the weather holds out for us during our stay. so far it looks like about a 30% chance of isolated thunderstorms just about every day

Can't remember....thinking $2.50 maybe?? I could be way off! I will try to remember to check and let you know!
We will be making a 15 minute grocery stop on our way to the CR tmr (taking a car service from MCO) to pick up a couple cases of water. We go thru so much of it that it's worth stopping.

Maybe this doesn't mean much, but the gallon jugs of water at the Beach Club Marketplace were $2.95. They look the same though.

Here are the ones from Fantasia Market...

And from Beach Club Marketplace...

How large are the refrigerators at in the rooms at the Comtemporary? Specifically in the tower park view rooms?

Thx.

Pretty small. Will hold maybe 10-12 bottles if water.

Thx to you too buzz. Any idea if you request larger ones?

I doubt it as they fit into a built in area. But I guess you could request a second one????

Hi fellow CR fans! Quick question - we are staying in the Garden Wing and have requested a first floor patio room for our trip in 24 days. Woohoo! But what sides do I need to request in order to see the Electrical Water Parade? I can't seem to find a map of the exact route of the EWP. Thanks!

Added - Opinions on doing online check in, if I want these requests met?! TIA!!!

Sorry to go OT here, but does anyone know the cost per person, adult, child, for the dining plan? Not QS, but "regular" or deluxe?

If you google 2013 pricing you should be able to find it? I don't remember what site I found it on...

I don't think so because it is under a cabinet. Ours wasn't cold at all when we first got there so we called and they put a new one in that seems pretty new. But still small.

Thank you so much! I am so happy about this. It will definately be the best $15.00 we will spend at Disney.

...And if you don't, the AP is a great way to start

I agree.....there's no such thing as too many Disney trips .

We're down to less than 24 hours!!! I can hardly stand it!!

Have a great time .

Checking into BLT in 3days.

Have a great trip .

Are you there yet? Are you there yet?

I forgot to suggest hanging your bag on the small towel rack that is underneath each sink.

How do you like the new décor?

It's almost time to get to WDW and BLT!! Yes, rain will be on the menu just about everyday now till about November. They pass quickly, thin out outdoor lines, and cool things off a bit

Have a great time!

The size pictured on the first page is the only size available in all the rooms that aren't DVC villas.

You'll need to have booked a Garden View room and requested a Bay Lake-facing room, though I'm not sure if you could see some of the EWP from the rooms that face the garden and pool area. But, it might be difficult from a first floor room. If you do get a Bay Lake GW room, those are the best GW rooms. We loved our ground floor room which faced Bay Lake - the view is gorgeous and you're steps from the beach

Online Check-In won't negate any requests you made so don't worry about doing it. Just make sure that all your requests are already in your reservation.

Can't wait for some more pictures from the recently refurbished rooms. Anyone??
Also...are all rooms completed? Originally I heard March, but just recently said that they were still working on them...
