Caribbean Beach Resort is the oldest of the moderates, that's why the rooms there are so much bigger. 5 square feet might not sound like much, but when I was there last month we added a roll away bed, and that extra room was wonderful because we were able to put the roll away between the wall that the door is on and the first bed. It didnt take up any real usable room and we could've left the bed open all day if we had wanted to.
EVERY room at CBR has been completely refurbished in the last year. They added a privacy curtain between the sink/dressing area and the rest of the room. Since I was traveling with my brother and his family, this was a wonderful addition and quite useful. In fact, it would've been great for my trip last year when I was traveling with my husband and 2 sons, I wouldn't have had to tell my sons to "look the other way" while I quickly dressed! LOL
All of the moderates offer basically the same amenitites, I think the main thing is the different themes. CBR and CSR are large resorts but if you request a room close to the food court/main pool area, then you'll be fine. Actually, from what I've read, the food court and the main pool at CSR arent near each other so there's no "good location" to be near both of them. At CBR the food court and main pool are next to each other and there are many great locations so you can be near both.
I have created a CBR web page with pictures and information. Click on the CBR icon below. I also have pictures from my trip to CBR last year, if you want to see those, click on my "vacations" link and follow that to the CBR pages.
Happy planning!
