We stayed at CBR during Hurricane Francis in 2004 and felt safe and cozy in our little corner room in Jamica. Our quiet pool was just fine for us after a day in the parks, but it didn't have a slide. I think each "island" has its own pool so don't worry about it being too crowded. After walking all day we didn't feel like walking across the middle island to go to the themed pool anyway. If you're looking for a relaxing place to stay, you've found it. Clean and pretty with hammocks on the beach. We were the first bus stop picking up (so we always had a seat while riding around the resort) and the first to be dropped off when returning from parks. Never waited longer than 20 minutes. The only negatives were slow check in and luggage delivery. Eat elsewhere, Shutters Rest. is nothing to write home about, although its adequate. Have a great trip!
