We got to the resort at about 5.40 on 10th august. We got two adjoining rooms in cabanas 9b BUT my nephew managed to lock out his mother and him because he walked out of the hotel room without the room key!!! So we ended up going back down to concierge getting let back in and moved to casitas 5 rooms 5333 and 5334 connecting rooms, we asked for a roll out bed but this wasn't delivered and not only did we get our luggage delivered to the room we got some one by the name of Derek Keysers cases as well. I walked his cases back to the concierge desk and asked when the roll out bed we asked for about 5 hours earlier (this was about 10.30 pm) we where told because of the inconvenience and bringing the luggage back there was no charge for the bed!!!!!!! I did love the hotel but am planning on going to the beach club next time

How come you switched rooms Paula? Did you have queen beds in Casita 5? Was this your first time to CSR?

Since this blog helped me decide on a WDW resort hotel I want to give something back to help future travelers. The CSR was great. A beautiful resort. We stayed in Casitas 5. Not only did our receptionist throw in a complimentary roll-away bed(with a nice wink of the eye), we were pleasantly surprised with 2 QUEEN beds in our room. (We noticed the Serta Mattress truck delivering dozens from the parking lot near bus stop 2). The Serta Poturepedics make a big difference! The room is not that big but fine for us, a family of 4, for the time we spent in there. Everyone at the CSR was great. The walking was fine, actually enjoyable. The grounds are relaxing and unless you HATE walking or are terribly lazy, the walking is fine. Casitas 4 would be almost equadistant to both the EL Centro and Dig Site. There were no crowds anywhere at CSR. We neber waited in a line. The Disney buses were incredibly quick. They take you directly to the resorts and we never waited more than 10 minutes and usually 5 for our bus. This included waiting at the parks for a bus to return to the CSR. The Maya Grill was superb.(we were on the dining plan) We ate there twice..Kids and all. They allowed us to get a kids menu meal(Chix tenders) as an adult sized meal. We traveled to other resort hotels and only found the AK Resort Hotel to be better than CSR. If you have any questions reply to this disboard and I will gladly help. We even avoided Tropical Storm Fay as it only spit light rain on us at EPCOT on Tuesday! The CSR is VERY nice.

Thanks for sharing!

We just came back from CSR almost exact dates...8/11 to 8/18.

We requested Cabana 9b from info on the boards got 9a and were just as happy!! We booked standard view got a corner room with a water view!! I am a huge fan of WL but for saving 800.00 I thought CSR was great! The kids loved the pool and the resort is soooo Pretty. We certainley were not bored.

Seems they have just as much to do as WL to me?? That being said I have to admit I like an inside room and just bus transportation doesn't thrill me. But you get what you pay for and for the price I think CSR is as close to a deluxe as you are going to get!!

Welcome back! I agree with your last comment!

Just back from a wonderful vacation! We enjoyed csr. Yes it is big, but very beautiful. I requested cabana/but got rancho..was alittle sad. We were in room 7612 building 7b. We were in the back of the building,parking lot view..in the end it was a great location..short walk to bus stop#4. the quiet pool was in our building. A short walk to the dig site.
The pool is great/always a seat. My kids loved the slide and hot tub.
The busses were crowed....we did always get a seat....bus stop#1 many had to stand. never waited more that 15 min.
Our room was clean. We never did get any towel animals
The resort seemed very busy. but never overcrowed.
any questions i'd be glad to answer
I'm glad i read all the info on the dis for the csr.
thanks all you csr disers

Thanks for sharing!!

Back from our trip, loved every minute at CSR!! Will have to post a "review" and some pics later. We stayed in Casitas 3. Saturday morning on our way out to the bus stop there were quite a few Sealy trucks there and people unloading all those new queen mattresses.

I want to know what type of mattress we slept on all week, (not the new ones, the full size ones) I know it's a Sealy because we looked at the tags (lol) but I don't know specifically what mattress it is. DH and I want to get one for our bed at home, the beds there are so comfortable!!

Thanks for sharing!!
