Contemp v. Poly, been to Poly...hows the Contemp?

[Mum2monsters]

Anyone have new pics of the new pool? I love the Poly but was thinking of trying something new. I have 2 kids under 3 years old. I know I'll get many pushes for Poly, but are there any Contempoary buffs out there??? Appreciate your help!

I love the Contemporary! If you stay there, I'd recommend the Tower. The views are spectacular. You'll get a view of either the Magic Kingdom (and as a result, the fireworks) or Bay Lake (and as a result, the Water Pageant). The monorail going right through the building is very cool, and they have a neat arcade downstairs. When my daughter was 2, she went on one of those miniature coin-operated carousels about 6 times in a row! Chef Mickey's is also fun for kids. My kids really enjoyed it there.

I've been to WDWIG.com, pics of contemporary but no POOL pics. Anyone been there since its refurbishment? Does it have a slide? I love the Poly pool.
Thanks for all your help and ideas!

The slide at CR closes a bit earlier than the one at the Polynesian. It's also rather plain in comparison. We've stayed at both resorts and they are both great. The CR arcade is the best on property.

Thanks everyone for the advice! Those pictures are just what I was looking for tinkerbelle30! Thank You!
It's a toss up, but I still am leaning towards the Polynesian. If we are on the 1st floor, we can walk right over to pool, rather than walk through hallways and take elevators. I still have plenty of time to decide. Planning an early February trip.
Thanks again to all. Your knowledge has really helped me!
