Where is the best place to stay on the CBR? - The DIS Discussion Forums

CerysG · 10-01-2012, 02:04 PM

Before I book I would love some suggestions where is the best place to stay on this resort. What is important is being near the big pool and a bus stop that isn't the last one on the resort...does anyone know what order the stops work for picking up? I hope to get conecting rooms so that will be the priority so that might just blow everyting else out of the water but I figured I should at least give an area. Anything else I should know before I book? Any help would be great! Thanks

I would hop over to the official CBR thread for the order of the stops; I was only there once and don't remember what they were.

I stayed in Aruba 52, and it was a nice location. I liked being able to walk across the lake to the main building area. I didn't use the main pool that much, so it wasn't that important to me.

The only part I don't like about CBR is the walk through the parking lot back to the buildings. After a long, hot day, it is not the most ideal.

The order of the bus stop depends on which entrance the bus driver uses.

The closest non-preferred locations are:

Martinique 21, 22, 23
Aruba 51
Jamaica 45

All of those will have a very short, around 4-5 minute, walk to OPR and the Main Pool.

If you want to be close to the main pool, then book a preferred room. The bus stop order, as previously mentioned, depends on which of the 2 entrances the bus happens to use (depends on where it is coming from). The bus stop at Old Port Royal is not the first or last stop for either route. A request for a connecting room is only a request and is never guaranteed, no matter which resort you book. All resorts have connecting rooms and they try to accommodate requests whenever possible.
