BRAND NEW CORONADO SPRINGS FAQ THREAD w/ PHOTOS (PART IV)

[Disneychix]

Question for the guests with little ones: Does CSR have bedrails like the other resorts? I would assume they do but I wasn't sure being a conference resort and all.

When should I request there if they do?

Yes and at check in. Housekeeping will deliver to you.

I LOVE this thread! LOVE IT.

And here is a question I haven't seen asked/answered.

For someone new to CSR - what is the best must have/must do that you can come up with - (my mind goes to drinks or food, but if you have other ideas - please let me know).

Thanks so much for your help! I CANNOT WAIT to get there in May!

What/ where is the laguna bar?

 

[KatMark]

What/ where is the laguna bar?

Outside the main entrance. And then, of course, you have the new Rix Lounge next to the Pepper Market that has live music after 9 p.m.

 

[Buzz2001]

What/ where is the laguna bar?

It is right out side the main building on the lake. Try for one of the corner tables in the lower picture!!

 

[tink771]

Is an order of these enough for two?

Not really, we shared fajitas on our last trip and felt we should have had something else in addition to.

 

[Buzz2001]

How late is the Laguna bar opened?

I believe it is 1am.

 

[Buzz2001]

Just a side note, when we stayed in 9b in January, we did not have turn down service, robes or toothbrushes. Looks like there have been more changes other than blue blankets on the beds since our last visit!

I saw the CM from housekeeping going around to all the doors in 9b. She had a clipboard and was knocking on the doors before entering.

 

[Buzz2001]

Thanks, this gives us another option then

We are not big drinkers, but every once in a while we do like to partake


You would never know I was just here in Dec. I went with some friends & we really did not take a lot of time to check out the resort(other than the gift shop & eating late one night at the PM). This trip I plan on looking around a lot more.

We're not big drinkers either but its beautiful to sit by the lake at night with the surrounding lights shimmering of the lake.

I know its terrible but someone has to do it. I guess I can struggle through it.

Kind of a picky, detail, but are the bottom sheets on the bed really fitted or are they flat sheets just tucked in all the way? I really hate when it's flat sheets so that when you pull out the top sheet to climb in, it completely untucks (is that a word?) the bottom sheet, and I end up having to re-make the bed myself before I can get in it! Of course, I'm very picky about my sheets and must have them flat with no wrinkles and generally have to re-make it anyway...

I believe WDW only uses flat sheets at all resorts. No fitted sheets.

Hmmmm..

We were in 9B last week. We got the DVD player, but no robes. No turn down service, no gels, no toothbrush, no mouth wash. But we did get 9B! And it was CSR at Disney!

How come your room has a lot less 'stuff' in it than ours did - where's all your junque?

Thanks for the info. We've stayed at Pop once and POFQ, but I couldn't remember. We're due-hard off-siters, but the 4/3 special convinced us to try CSR with the kids in July - chosen due to the queen beds, but we're really looking forward to it now based on all the good info we've read!

 

[KatMark]

Buzz, where's the picture of the shower head with the "you know what's on it?" I can't find it and don't remember who posted it.

 

[motofox4]

i found it on another thread..

Just got back yesterday from CSR. Stayed in Casitas room #4421....with a view of the quiet pool. The room wasn't yet refurbed and I was a little dissapointed because the room really needed a facelift. The king bed's height came up to the bottom of my knee and I am only 5'1.......I didnt understand why the bed was so short, it was strange. Anyway, it was a clean room, albeit kind of ugly, and work was paying for it so I had nothing to complain about. PepperMarket food was very good, although they closed the self-serve drink station because, I was told, people kept coming in and stealing drinks out of the soda fountains.....what a shame.

I wanna give a shout-out to John at the Concierge desk...very friendly and helpful!! Also, Pastor Phil.....also at Concierge. These 2 guys are such an asset to CSR.

Anyway, the work conference is over and my stay at CSR was very nice, congrats to all those who got one of the "new rooms".

So glad I found this thread! DF and I are going for our honeymoon after we get married on The Wonder in September. Originally booked CR with the 40% code. Started thinking that we should consider a moderate instead and save a little money. So today I booked CSR... looks wonderful!!! I don't think we'll regret our decision to switch!
