CBR Bus Question

[tmq2766]

We are staying at the CBR from 11/2/03-11/11/03 and have requested Trinidad North building. I looked at the bus schedule and it looks like we would be one of the last builings picked up, will we ever get a seat?

We stayed at CBR - North Trinidad and had great luck with the buses everytime.

(We always tried to catch the 1st bus out each day and never had a bit of trouble!!)

Good luck!!

I am soooo glad to hear that......
If given the choice would you stay at CBR again?

We loved the CBR!
N.Trinidad great location, but the rooms are a bit small for us.
We loved having the quite pool all to ourselves! (we were there in Nov. 1998)

The music is great out by the pool and they have a excellent hairwrap stand.(fun for the girls)
The Food court had everything we needed to get out the door and on the bus very early in the A.M.

We are currently planning a trip in Feb. and are debating where we should stay. CBR or Poly?!?!?!? We change our minds every half hour!!!

We have no complaints - just need a little more room.(we may get 2 rooms this time!)

Have a great trip!!!

Buses can start at either Jamaica, Martinique, or even Trinidad South. It should be noted that during peak times, buses may be crowded no matter what stop you are at. I've had times when I've driven though and picked up and still had a few seats. Other times, I've filled up. Buses are dispatched on a demand basis, so if a bus does fill up, there will be another on the way.

That is good to hear It sounds terrible but I am thinking about which building to request depending on the busses. It kinda scares me because the CBR is such a spread out hotel. and since it is just me and DD8 I don't want to be dragging her all over the place just to get on a bus.

We stayed at CBR in 2001 and 2002 and were in Jamaica both times, only one time (meaning 1 trip to a park) out of the two years did the bus NOT start and end at Jamaica. This is a main reason we like Jamaica.

We just got back from CBR and the busses were no problem at all! We were in Aruba which was usually the second stop, but not always. If the busses were full, they sent another one right out. Many times there were 2 busses together, so when one got full, the other took over.

I am feeling so much better about my resort choice.
