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

[caryrae]

Okay, I have spent most of the days looking at all of the beautiful photos of CSR on the photo threads. What I need is for someone to show me a picture of a casita, a picture of a cabana, and a picture of the ranchos. I think I know what the Casitas look like and the Ranchos, but I didn't see any pictures of the Cabanas from the outside. Can anyone help?

Also, we are on DDP. How do we know what we can get at Pepper Market? I'm not sure how it works with side dishes, etc. Thanks!

If you look here http://coronado_springs.tripod.com/ and scroll down looking on the left side you can look at pics of each area you want.

Thanks. Of course, as soon as I posted this, I went to the next page on that thread and found one.

When your server seats you, just ask. It's a CS restaurant, so you'll get an entree with the sides, a drink, and a dessert. You'll have to ask at the bakery which desserts count for the DDP, because not all of them do, only like the top row or two.

Thanks to a post in the resort page, I think I will go against my travel agents advice and go with CS. SHe suggested I would like POR better. Her main reason was that CS was too much walking.

I have read this thread until I am cross eyed.

WIth a 3 & 6 year old- which area would YOU request if walking to bus was the biggest factor? All areas look nice to me!

And do I have her request it or do I fax it like I am reading?

How's the Maya Grill for dinner? I haven't seen too much about it, but I'm thinking of eating there either on our first or last day.

I have a 3 year old and a 7 year old- we leave on May 6th. I think we would like to be close to the digsite pool so I am requesting in this order.
Cabanas 8A
Cabanas 8B
Ranchos 7B
Cabanas 9B

I am so looking forward to palm trees and the scenery at CSR (we are from western Pa and it is still practically winter here), I don't think we will mind the walk to the main building for breakfast.

You have to copy and paste the link rather than clicking on it.

We are from Western, PA and will be there on the 10th.

Nice! I'm sure you will notice our steeler shirts around the pool!

And when I yell "Hey Yinz guys better slow down" to my kids... you will know it is me.

Just kidding... I never yell Yinz, but imagine our accents are very noticable.

We are checking into CSR in 9 days. (woot, single digit dance ) I am getting ready in 5-6 days or so to fax in our room request. What is the very latest on what renovated areas are done?

I know the Cabanas, some of the Ranchos, and a bit of Casitas. Any more info on what has been finished most recently in the Casitas? We were hoping for that section as we did the Cabanas last time.

Thanks so much!! I will certainly post photos upon my return. So excited to be returning "home."

Have a great time, Danielle. As of now, all of the Cabanas are done, Ranchos 6A and 6B, 3rd floors of Casitias 1, 2 and 3. They are currently working on Casitas 4. I don't think it will be done by the time you get there as it takes each building about a month and I think they've only been working on it a couple of weeks.

Does anyone know if there's flexibility in room assignments if the reservation was made through a convention, or do they usually need to keep the group/reservations together? Do I just handle it like a normal room request, or do I need to go through the convention reservation maker? We'll be going in mid-June, but I have extended the reservation by several days on each side, so only 2 out of 6 days we're there are for my convention (will be odd to also be working, but it's sure helping with travel costs!).

My instinct right now is the Cabanas section (which one, haven't determined, though I'd love suggestions!). It will be me (six months pregnant at the time)and DH and DS (3), so centrality is pretty important, though I have no need to right on top of the pool, PM, etc. I'd prefer a little quiet. A renovated room (and a queen size bed!) are probably even more important.

We've done all the other moderates (though not in years) and all the values, so I'm excited to experience CSR for the first time.

They make the standard four cups of coffee.

Are there filters in the room or should I bring some from home?
