So DD15 and I are in charge of "convincing" the rest of the family (aka: "the guys") which resort to stay at for our Sept 2016 trip.
Here is our WDW history: DH and I stayed at CBR waaay back on it's OPENING DAY! The resort wasn't even complete yet! That was 1988 and 4 kids ago!
Since then we've stayed off-site, Ft. Wilderness cabins, POFQ, POP and most recently BC.
WE LOVED BC!
For our upcoming trip though, we are considering other options so the kids can experience different WDW resorts.
CBR is in the running but I am afraid the time waiting for the bus and then the many inner-resort stops will be a turn-off since we were spoiled by the location of BC. While at BC, especially on really hot days, we enjoyed leaving the parks for 2 hrs or so to swim at the resort pool and then returned to a park.
I try to take the threads on disboards complaining about the buses with a grain of salt, since there are both good and bad reviews and we won't necessarily get the "worst-case scenario" on our trip.
What is the *realistic* general opinion of the bus situation at CBR to and from parks?
EDITED to add: BWI is the deluxe that is also on the short list, with CBR.
