Caribe Royale - No Car

[Alysmom]

We just booked Caribe Royale for 2 adults & 3 kids (11, 10 & 8). We will have 4 full days and are planning to do two Disney Parks and Seaworld. We did not rent a car because the hotel has complimentary shuttles to the Disney parks. We can cab it to/from SeaWorld. Is anyone familiar with this location? Do we need a car? Would rather not and save the money for parks.
TIA

it is pretty close where 536 and 535 meet. It is PINK.

here there website

there FAQ says they can provide transportation to other places as well - it might be cheaper than a taxi.

you are little closer to WDW than SW - but not too much.

 

[spiceycat]

have no ideal about their transportation - they aren't saying.

so i suggest you call them and find out - some places only go to WDW a couple of in the morning and save in the evening.

you kids are definitely big enough to stay at the parks all day.

When we stayed there in 11/05 they only provided transportation to Epcot. You can go from there to any of the other parks on Disney transportation. I don't know if it's still the same. We stayed in a really nice 2 bedroom. It's pretty close to Downtown Disney.

I am staying here with my sister in Late July Early Aug for 4 nights (3 days at pop before that), and am really worried about their transportation and how long it runs and when it starts. If it only runs till like 3pm or something, that really kills all my dinner ADRs and might get costly in cab fares. Anyone know what place on disney property is closest to the Caribe Royal? Somebody who has more recently stayed here, can you please comment on their free transportation?

It's closest to Downtown Disney.

It's closest to Downtown Disney.

Does anyone have a clue how much it would cost for a cab from Downtown Disney to Caribe?

Are there cabs waiting at places like Down Town disney and the major parks or do you always have to call them?
