BRAND NEW CORONADO SPRINGS FAQ THREAD w/ PHOTOS (PART IV)

[JamesLynn]

Nice review and great pictures, thanks!!! That last picture of the gator scares me a little I really don't want to see him in June!!!

THAT'S GLEN!
I haven't seen him in awhile.
He normal hangs out over by the Cabanas.

I named her ALLIE in my posts. But we'll refer to him as GLEN from now on! I think he's cute.

He was between the Dig Site and the Cabanas. And he was cute. I wanted to pick him up but thought I'd better not.

I'll keep my eyes peeled for him. I am terrified of those guys, though my DH and DS16 would think seeing "Glen" would be pretty cool...

I've been looking through this thread. I am up to page 48. But, I cannot find my answer. Does anyone know if the rooms have an ipod player/clock. I swore I heard they did. Anyone, thank you!

Also, is there anywhere to get ice cream sundae's like they have at POP?

I believe if you go to Buzz's official website (the link is below) it mentions that you can plug your ipod into the clock radio. Don't know about the ice cream sundaes...never attempted to get one.

LOL.
My co-worker, Mickey, and I saw him and named him, Glen the Gator, so I refer to him since Mickey no longer works at Disney.
She's my friend who had to sadly leave, because of her nasty divorce.

Well, we'll call him Glen. And maybe Glen will get a friend and we'll name her Allie.

How is your friend doing?

 

[cheerful chickadee]

oh no, I just noticed there are actually 2 conventions going on at CSR during our stay, how much will this effect us? I wanted to request a room in the Cabanas section, do they put the conventioners there or scatter them around? Not worried about the PM or pool too much, just my room request.

we'll be there in 30 days, woo-hoo!

Got an email from her the other day. She sounds much happier. She has a lawyer and has gotten all that stuffed organized. The baby is also walking now!

 

[lindsroc]

PS...how do you know when the conventions are? We'll be there 4/27-5/2.

You're going to be there same time we are! I was wondering the same thing yesterday, so I checked out the FAQ's and did some lookups online. Here's the FAQ from BUZZ:

CSR Convention List

And I found a few more and posted them here:

More conventions

Maybe our families will run into each other... we'll be there 4/28-5/5. And I'm still planning stuff to do

We have been there while one convention is going on and sometimes with two. They have never bothered us. They are in meetings so it leaves the pools (and the buses) emptier during the day. You may find their families if they brought them at the pool or on the buses, but generally you shouldn't have problems. They have always been in all sections of the resort--Cabanas, Ranchos and Casitas. If they paid for it, Cabanas 9B will be out of pocket while you are there as they will get their Club Service, etc.

But I wouldn't worry about it. Have a good time.

We're back!

CSR was beautiful, and we got our requested room in Cabana 8A.

My girls, 5 and 7, loved the playground and pool! They enjoyed it a lot more than POR's. My DH stated he liked the theming better than POR. The busses were better. We never had to stand, and except for once, we only waited five to ten minutes.

The downside for us was PM. The food was good, but it was hard to navigate with two kids. We ate here twice, and I thought it was a good value on the meal plan, but it was very confusing, and hard to do. We all wanted different lines, which required multiple stamps. The kids food was cold by the time our food was cooked. We got it to go, and ate outside both days. That was very enjoyable.

Overall, we would stay there again.

 

[Minnie&Nana]

Welcome back, Jennifer!! So glad you enjoyed your stay.

Thanks so much for checking in! Any photos to share? How was your room and view?

Thanks, Jennifer, for posting. So glad you enjoyed your stay at the CSR. I think I've decided that I prefer Cafe Rix to the Pepper Market.

I hope you will post some pictures if you have them.
