12 days for us! I keep thinking "in 2 weeks we'll be here at this time, in 2 weeks we'll be eating here right now..."
YES!!!! We were in Martinique 25 water view and the odor was extremely strong. I couldn't determine if it was smoke or some other odd smell. They tried to tell me they'd send housekeeping to our room with air freshener but I declined and asked for a new room. Housekeeping manager agreed the room had a odor but told me it was mold/mildew and not smoke. Either way, it made for a rocky start to our trip. It was hard to give up our perfect room and location but our new room that we moved to in Jamaica was lovely.
We are in Martinique 26 right now and we have been getting on and off a strange smell. Not sure what it is, but we are here for 14 days, just a few more left and it is the perfect water view room so we just couldn't change rooms. When we got the room our first day we were crazy excited about the location, we have stayed at Saratoga Springs before with almost a 10 minute walk to the food court so being 1 minute away from food main pool and drink refills is worth it.
Before we opened the door my wife said something like I hope it's clean and I replied, with this location I don't care if there's a dead animal in here, I'm keeping the room!
For what it's worth, we were in building 39 earlier this month. That is one of the farthest buildings. One afternoon, my husband and I decided to walk to go get a pizza from Old Port Royale and pick up our packages that had been delivered to the resort. I asked him to go ahead and time us to see just how long it took us to walk there from our door. Unfortunately, he didn't stop the timer and I didn't think it remind him so we don't have the exact time. I can tell you that we walked there, I went to order the pizza, he went to get the packages, and when we met up while waiting for them to finish our pizza, it was just under 15 minutes. So, while it is the farthest section from the main building, the walk really isn't that terrible.We have a pirate room booked for our Oct 2016 trip,
I didn't realize they are the farthest away,
any suggestion on which building for in Trinidad South which would be best?
Never stayed at Caribbean Beach, so any tips would be great.
We are going with extended family about 20 of us, some are 1st time disney trippers too.
Thanks,
Kim
I believe that they changed many of the AC/heating units from the rooms. There was a musty smell, but nothing I couldn't deal with.YES!!!!

Hi All!
This will be my families first time staying at CBR. We've been to Disney, just didn't stay at a Disney resort. There will be 5 of us, 3 adults (me, DH, and step-daughter) and 2 girls 8 and 6. I know we will all want to swim, the kids will want play at the featured pool as well. What would you suggest is the best location to stay on the resort? I'm hoping I can request a certain location as long as it can fit 5. Thanks everyone for any advice you can provide
We booked standard but I'm open to upgrading to preferred if it's worth it.What category of room did you book? Standard, water view, preferred?

I have a question, friends. 11 days out, yeah! and about to do online check in. They want a departure time. So do I put in the departure from the hotel or from the airport. I think it's probably linked with ME , right? So we will be checking out by 11 but not departing for airport till 4. So what time do I put in? How do I convey those circumstances or don't I? Not sure this makes a bit of sense :/
