Yay. Thanks! I was just enjoying your pictures on the picture thread. Only 75 more days.

Only 66 days until our very first Christmas trip and first time at CSR in over two years.

My wife and I are planning a dinner out without kids (DD8, DD10) one night while we are there. Is there an on-site program for them or do you need an off-site service? Thank you!

Long time reader first time poster. I have been reading on this thread for days. I appreciate all your help. It may be too late to do some of this stuff...as I understand my roon may already be assigned.

3 of us (me, wife, son-14) have reservations begining on Thursday for 3 nights at CSR. I have reserved a "waterview". My wife had bad knees (one replaced and the other scheduled for later this year). We will be driving so bus stops are not a big deal.

We want to be close to El Centro so I guess I should call and request something close to El Centro and parking lot?

Is it too late to call?

ground floor?

someplace easy for a ECV if I can get her to try one?

Sorry for all the questions all at once.....time is running out!

Thanks

If you call to have it put on your reservation, it's not too late (but I'd do it today). Without getting a preferred room, the closest building to El Centro is Cabanas 9B, then 9A. 9A backs up to a parking lot, so that might be a good choice. You can definitely request 1st floor.

When you check in, if you find your requests weren't met, you can always ask to be moved and explain why. I'm sure they will be very accommodating.

Have a wonderful trip!

My sister and sister-in-law and I are participating in the Princess Half Marathon in February and I'm trying to decide where to stay. Obviously, LOVE CSR. But I know that big-humongo-convention is sometime around February and wouldn't want to be there for that. What's the name of that company? Any idea when that convention is running next year? I checked Page 1 of the thread and it's not on the list yet.

Thanks!

Their convention went into March this year. I'm not sure when it started, but I was thankful we arrived a couple days after they left. From what I understand they are the only group that truly has a negative affect on the whole of CSR. We did see a couple of stages the first day that were torn down by the next night.

I think I would pick another resort if you know you will be there at the same time as the Grainger convention.

sau418 · 10-01-2012, 07:17 PM

From what I found the Grainger thing is March 10-14.

W are staying at CSR for the PHM too.

MMlvsMM · 10-01-2012, 07:29 PM

Someone posted a few pages back that Grainger is not at CSR next year.

Nothing onsite. I think only the Deluxes have those. We did send the kids to the one at the GF the one time we went to Victoria & Albert's, so depending on where you are eating, there may be one available (you don't have to be staying at the resort to use them).

Thanks for letting me know about the shower gel...one less thing to pack!!

I have another question: does Coronado have the Gold Peak tea dispenser?
