Booked CSR & Vero Beach Last Night!

[mm6mm6]

Okay! I am an official Disney nut now! Do I cut a pinky finger to put my blood somewhere? We went in June 2002 and had such a great time. We didn't think we would go again but now, six months later of thinking, we decided it would be great to go back. I called Disney's Vero Beach 800 number and spoke with "Milo." This guy was unreal! His knowledge of Disney was beyond compare. His wife works for Disney too! He knew EVERYTHING! We booked CSR as an alternative to staying again at the CBR which we loved so much. My DW loves southwest/southamerican style so Coronado should be great! We stayed last summer in Daytona for four days after Disney but it was too commerial for us. Now we are staying in an oceanview Inn room at Disney's Vero Beach for four days after our seven days at CSR. Geez, I am so excited already! I forget who the fan was here that had a Coronado Springs website (actually there were two) but thanks because your sites pushed us over the edge to pick CSR. We have all of our maps from last time of the parks. We will pick the rides/attractions/shows we missed and won't want to miss again. The Disney Club membership got us a great rate I think. Milo went over all the numbers very patiently and the comparison came out to: 6 nights at CSR with the basic package including 7 days of Ultimate Park Hopper for two adults and one child (DD6) was $186 more than the CSR alone and the 5 day Park Hopper Plus. So we can go to the four parks and the two water parks during our seven day stay and not pay for a park entrance on our last day. But, for the additional approx $150, we are getting the 7 day Park Hopper Plus which means we are paying the Disney Club (discontinued after 2003) price of $25 per park entrance day for two days for two adults and one child which can be used anytime in the future. I think that's a good deal! Can you tell we're excited????? Yahoooo! Disney World, here we come.....AGAIN! We're gonna do everything we missed last time!

You will love Vero Beach. We go every summer and couldn't imagine going anywhere else. I didn't catch when you were going but if your trip falls in June or July make sure to ask about the turtle patrol when you check in.

You will love the place!

I got married there (on the "Croquet Law) and we had our families the whole weekend at the resort

Instead of a rehearsal dinner, we held a private campfire (including toasting marshmellos!) They do hold one every evening try to catch it- it's fun and FREE

We're very excited about both the CSR and Vero Beach!
We paid $326 for three nights in Daytona last year at a pretty nice hotel with an ocean view.
Vero Beach (with our Disney Club discount) is $586 for three nights on August weekdays. Just $160 more to upgrade to Disney and no cars on the beach and there's not another hotel on either side. We were looking for a bit more seclusion and a lot less commercialism. We would like to just relax on the beach for a few days!
Can't wait!

Not another hotel for miles! The Disney resort is located smack-dab in an area of very expensive homes and condos. You'll love it!
