We just returned from CBR last night. The construction wasn't a noise problem for us nor did it affect the pool. As a side note, I was surprised at how small the main pool is and the small number of lounge chairs. The construction does, however, affect the recreation. We rented boats and you can only go in the main lake area now. They told us that they are draining the other lake areas so you can't go past the bridge that goes over to Old Port Royale. We still had fun (my DD loved being able to drive her own boat!) but a half an hour is more than sufficient because you are stuck in the one little lake. Also, yesterday morning we went to ride bikes. We had already paid and were climbing on when they came running out and said they couldn't rent out bikes right now. Apparently, the path near the construction has been closed so they couldn't rent out the bikes. I wasn't too happy about that since we left this activity for our last morning and we were looking forward to it. The recreation people also seemed frusrated about all the restrictions. So if you are planning on some recreation activities, I would check about the construction impact.
