No one should be picky - YOU ARE AT WALT DISNEY WORLD. If I need covers I call the front desk.

Hello folks... a CBR newbie here.
Our first stint is coming up next month. Was wondering if anyone could tell me the best location to request if I wanted a quieter area? We've booked a standard view and walking isn't a concern. Right now I've just got "top floor" on the reservation.
Thanks a ton.

One of the things that we love about CBR is I can't think of an area that ISN'T quiet. There are no rooms near or around the main pool where the pool games are played. In 4 trips, with a couple being right by a quiet pool, we've never heard any noise. Even when CBR is at capacity, it feels like we're the only ones in our building. Our requests, in this order, are always Jamaica 45, 2nd floor and Aruba 51. I hope you enjoy CBR as much as we do. It's our favorite moderate.
How comfortable are the beds? I found the ones AoA great
Also what is better to request for preferred Trinidad North or Martinque ?
Thanks

Question: I may be staying here with my family and another adult couple are staying at another Disney resort. Can they come hang out with us at the pool one day?
Many will probably think I'm nuts, but we really prefer to stay in Aruba 56 when we go to CBR.
Yup, it's a long walk to the food court, about as far as you can get, actually, so why stay in 56?
Nowadays, it's just my DW and myself on most trips (empty nesters) and we travel light, just a carry-on and a small bag each. After check in we just roll our luggage the relatively short distance to our room without waiting for the shuttle/bell service van. Checking out is just as easy. In 7 trips to CBR we've used the shuttle once.
It's very, I mean very close to the Aruba bus stop. I like that. A lot.
Sports teams and cheerleaders don't seem to stay in this part of the resort. We were there for "Spring Training" this past March and there were lots of ball teams and what seemed to be quite a few girl's soccer teams as well. They were nowhere near us and our quiet pool remained quiet. We only saw them at the food courts and the only issues they caused were because of their numbers, certainly not their behaviour. We also noticed how crowded the quiet pools in the villages where the teams were staying were. Funny thing. We were waiting for DME back to the airport and there were a couple of ball teams waiting for the same bus. I thought the coaches were being way sillier than any of the kids were. Not a problem, just really goofy practical jokes and such.
As another poster said, just about anywhere in the resort will be quite quiet even when full but we sure like "our" little corner of CBR.
I've been reading a lot about the change of comforters to white sheets/blankets at CBR. Is this only a change in Jamaica or will they be doing all the rooms? Sorry if this has been asked before. I hope if they do change they will stay with a tropical theme. White blankets just doesn't seem tropical to me. It will not stop me from staying there though. We will be staying at CBR for the 5th time in July and requested Jamaica and have gotten it 4 times. I hope we will still love the rooms when they change.
It looks like it is going the be all villages, except the pirate rooms (my assumption). On page 45 of this thread, there is a report of the new linens in Martinique and also Aruba. I don't think it looks really tropical either, but I'm wondering if this is only the beginning of what they're doing. Either way, I'll be there in 18 days!
I will be leaving for CBR on Wednesday, I will be staying in the pirate rooms. Does anyone have any complaints about this room specifically? The only thing that I have heard is that there is a long walk to get to the main area.
