We’re coming back!

We’ll be staying here 6 - 17 Jan 2014. I’ll be running the Goofy race and a half challenge, DH will run the half with me and the 5k with our DS.

I could not think of any place better to stay than CSR with its wonderful hot tub and onsite spa for a well deserved massage after all that running.

You can get the discount but you would have to re-book as a 'room only' and then add the package elements that apply to you.

You don't need to go through that. You can have the room only discount applied to your package. You just have to call. I had my package booked in November for my April trip. When the room discounts came out the first of the year, I was able to call and they applied them to my package.

We're headed to CSR this week, first time there and first time onsite in 8 years.

There is a good chance that a teen friend of my DD16 will drive over one day so they can visit MK together.

I would like it if they met at the resort (instead of the crowded theme park). Will the friend be allowed to park in the lobby area for a few minutes to meet DD? Could she buy her park admission ticket there - lines might be shorter than at the MK gates?

I know the friend cannot leave her car at CSR for the day, just need a spot for 15 min. or so to meet up and maybe buy a ticket.

Thanks.

If its fri or sat he may run into problems due to princess half marathon meet up. They put out that no drop off/pick up will happen at CSR. I'm sure they are talking about people going to expo- and not a guest situation like this. However- be advised he could be stopped or questioned more than normal. I'd ask front desk for help!

Ok, that's princess half marathon expo! Not meetup. I have that I. The brain. Lol

dandelion · 02-17-2013, 03:29 PM

thanks longhorns2, the plan is now to meet the friend at a park on Tues. after we arrive, but things change quickly with teens!

I read about the marathon expo, and I think things will get a little more busy around the resort. We check out on Saturday anyway, to go to That Other Park.

longhorns2 · 02-17-2013, 04:19 PM

The Park that cannot be named! Lol

Thank you... Im still hoping for one for June 15th... so until one is released its a moot point for me.... But just being prepared

After trying for over a week and having to tweak our dates again, we were finally able to rebook CSR-Business Class with the BB offer we had. Finally everything fell into place and all our changes (including our airfare that we had already booked) came through. We are so excited to go back this August and try the Cabanas section and the lounge

Abharmagic · 02-18-2013, 08:30 AM

Just booked business class. Very excited! I am doing it primarily for the continental breakfast. I am hoping this will ease the burden of trying to eat/make breakfast in our rooms in the AM. The alcoholic beverages in the PM are an added plus

I will post a review- we are less than 90 days away from our vacation.

It's gonna be a party! I'm there April 29 - May 8. Also staying CSR business class. I can't wait!!

TinkerbellLuvr7 · 02-18-2013, 07:18 PM

Just checked out of Business Class today! For us, it was worth it! The breakfast was great and you are able to have it as grab and go if need-be. The only thing that changed daily was the muffin/cin. roll/danish. The CMs were all fantastic and loved hearing what your daily plans were or how your day was!

The night snacks were very good after a long day in the park or a treat before you leave for the park at night. We were on the DDP and thought it was still worth it! Everyone we talked to in the club really enjoyed themselves.

If you have any questions let me know!
