We were there during the Dream Cars & National Mustang Club weekend earlier this month!

We always have a great stay at CSR. The CMs are indeed some of the best there are!

Here is a photo of my Dream Team: Daniel & Ahimsa. These 2 wonderful CMs have made my 2 Business Class stays at CSR truly magical.



(I got their permission to post the photo! )

I remember Daniel from my trip in May. He was in the lounge every day and every day he was so friendly! Always had a smile on his face and was always ready to help with anything you needed.

I just checked in and the desk said in a month or so they as well as hotels will be on Magic bands. As far as corner the the way tha Cabanas are set most on a corner. I'm in 9646 which is a true corner, 2nd floor facing a small lake, very short walk to buses, front desk area. Quiet pool 1 bldg over.

Seems to me that the corner rooms would be a whole lot brighter.

We had a corner room in Ranchos 7B in 2010 but we only had one window

Same here on FP+! Oct 18-25 at CSR and was checking into F! FP+ for our POR stay Oct 25-27 and SURPRISED to see FP+ available for our entire WDW stay. Really crazy since we have MB ordered for the POR portion and FP+ for about 2+ weeks now, so we just figured we it wouldn't happen for CSR. YIPPEE! Now hope we can double dip a bit on FP/FP+ as that would be way cool!

Wonder if the MB will work the entire time with the split stay? I've heard you need 2 sets though from the Dis.

So tonight while sitting in the jacuzzi at CSR, a bunch of girls got in and were obviously college students I'm guessing....a bit loud and all that but no big deal cause this is Disney world right? Then a few got out and went back to the pool. Then I saw one of them climb to the very top of the pyramid. Really? That's not very smart.

That was my adventure for the day...I wonder how many points one would score while tumbling down the pyramid?

I'm a little worried about my 6 year old trying this........
My understanding is they CAN climb up to the level where the "branches" first cross the stairs? Were there no lifeguards to stop her?

No this was around 10pm. And yes there are big branches. But these were much older kids/adults who just climbed over. I don't remember doing stupid stunts in college, but maybe I was an exception.

Probably lots of alcohol involved, lol.

 

[mandi321]

So excited to get the magic bands!!! made my bad day at work better now!!!

Surprisingly no. They were in the jacuzzi with us for a while and clearly not drunk. I think it was more of a group date thing gone out of hand.

I was an exception too!

Hi Black, we're here now too and wondering if that was the only hot tub for the resort? I thought each section had their own too but I can't see one in Casistas -unless that is what's under construction...
