Just got back from my first trip to CBR and RoseMom's post inspired me.
Loved the resort. Was in a preferred room in Trinidad North. The renovations to the rooms were very nice, the Murphy Bed, the sliding doors to the bathroom, all very nice. Room was super clean and housekeeping was good. It is a HUGE resort as I found out walking around.
Had issues getting my luggage as I alluded to in my previous post. Nothing Magical or Express about Magical Express but I don't think that is an issue with this resort as it seems to happen everywhere. "3 hours from when you arrive at your resort", try about 7. Of course it's free so it's tough to complain. Bus ride was slow to board and leave the airport as well.
Cheerleaders. They were there towards the end of the week. As were a lot of school groups. These cheer groups, especially the HS and more specifically college ones, really caused havoc at the pool with about 15-20 sitting in one hot tub and making it impossible to get in with them (not that I wanted to). It was like the scene in Caddyshack when they let the caddies in for an hour at the Bushwood Country Club pool. The language was just pathetic and they acted like the trash.
We loved the main pool and the bigger slide IMO was the best one I've been on at a resort I believe (and nice at night!). Pool games were also fun, the young ladies that work there and do these activities really are terrific and I say that across multiple resorts.
The smoking area near the pool bar unfortunately made it tough to be in the hot tub on the other side of the smoking area, not sure why they would have a smoking area right near that.
Grounds were manicured nicely, very clean resort IMO.
Buses were great. We never waited that long. Trips to HS and EP were very quick. The other parks were not very long rides either.
Had a very magical trip and I was very impressed with the resort. Whether we stay here again or not I don't know but we were very happy with it.

The standard rooms were sold out under the free dining promo for our dates, so we've swapped to CSR. Hopefully someone will cancel their FD package at CBR, and I'll be able to snag it.
