Any updated information to add? Anyone stayed there recently?
Wow, wanted to post but couldn't find the thread! Since you posted, I got an email with a link to the thread..lol
Was there 3 weeks ago. There is A LOT of construction going on, and I'm not going to lie, it was a distraction. The serenity and calm was missing. Guys in construction vests and hard hats always afoot. They are friendly, but still....
The walls hiding the pool construction go all the way to the beach. The new DVC building is enormous and is in the midst of being built... what an eyesore...ughh. I felt like I was in NYC.
There was another pool (the one with the waterfall) available which was nice, along with a new "activity pool" (think Great Wolf Lodge type - if you know what that is).
The whole deal about Mizner's having food to make up for Gasparilla's being closed... well... there's some cold sandwiches available, but that's about it.
All in all, I was disappointed. And, to top it all off, we were flat out LIED to (see my post #88, page 6 of this thread) about nobody being allowed to stay in the main building. There were indeed people staying at the Royal Palm Club. Why they picked us in particular to move to the Sugar Loaf Lodge I can't figure out. We had the room booked for over 6 months.
