Best resort for young couple?

[TJA]

We have never stayed at your 2 choices (Swan/Dolphin or CSR), but I can comment from personal experience at the other Epcot area resorts. That is our favorite area to stay. We've been staying in that area since our twins were babies and there are a TON of things to do for adults in that area. You would love the boardwalk, which is right next to the Swan/Dolphin. There is dancing, restaurants, entertainment, ESPN Club, surrey bikes for rent and riding around the beautiful lake (especially beautiful at night during Illuminations). You can walk right in to the Epcot countries each night for a romantic dinner, watch Illuminations, then just walk right back to the boardwalk for more fun. You can walk or boat to MGM too. It's an awesome area and I would recommend it to anyone.

My DF and I (in our 20s) had the best time at Caribbean Beach Resort. It really depends on your taste - CSR is great, but the theming isn't our style. We liked the Caribbean theming, white sandy beaches, hammocks, and just the laid back atmosphere. I love the idea of the "islands" theming. On the buses to and from the resort, they would play music on the Steel Drums so it just felt so relaxing overall. We really enjoyed our time there and you can book a King bed room there.

Can't wait until the Pirate pool!!!

Of the MOD's (PORS, POFQ, CBR, CSR) CSR is the best for the price. Buzz's pictures are good but they don't do the resort justice (Buzz knows what I mean!)

For young people (or young at heart) here's why I think CSR is best,

1. Great pool and pool bar! The pool is huge, the spa (hot tub) is big enough for ten people, the pool bar has the best drinks and snacks (try the Bahama Mama w/ 151 float WOW!! )

2. The night time scenery is stunning, with some really great sunsets. Try a stroll through Casitas after dinner, very romantic.

3. The cocktail bars are fun casual places which are rarely overcrowded. The resort is a convention resort so it's mainly an adult resort.

4. The Pepper Market (food court) has some of the best quick food going (the prime rib is my all time favorite )

Enjoy...

And the Pepper Market wants to charge you a mark up for "service"

Having tried it twice I have never had "service" (Sorry showing me to the ONLY clean table in the joint isn't service. I oculd have found that on my own LOL!) Pepper Market and the front desk are the reasons I won't stay there unless I can't get any of the other mods at a good price.

The hot tub actually holds 22. Its the largest hot tub on WDW property.

Amen. Never a problem, no complaints from me. Always good service at the PM.

You can also get your food to go if you wold like to dine lakeside. Plenty of tables on the deck outside.

CSR would be a good choice...........more adult oriented with it being a "convention" hotel. Also it is not far from DTD/PI by car or bus. Definately hit Pleasure Island.........also they used to have a deal where you pay admission on one night and then can get an additional 5 nights for 5 bucks! The drinks are a little pricey but they mix them well and the club atomosphere is awesome especially Thurs-Sat nights........make sure you check out Motions and Mannequins! We have a blast!
