2) Is the DigSite Pool heated ?
3) Does the convenience store sell Liquor ?
4) What is the best room/building location for family with young children?

1. No free Wi-Fi anywhere on WDW property (at least at the resorts).
2. Yes, all WDW pools are supoosed to be heated to 80º.
3. Yes
4. The Cabana section is my favorite.
5. If you will be spending alot of time at the main building, the ranchos are the furthest. If you will be spending most of your time at the main pool, the casitas are the furthest from the main pool.

4 days to go.. My 2 boys are bouncing off the walls with excitement (I am too)!

This is out first time to WDW and I have a feeling it is going to be wonderful !

This board has been very helpful too!

If you have access to a fax, you may want to try to fax your requests if you didn't make one at check in.

Ok.. Cabanas look like the best for us... Close to DigSite and not too far from main building! I faxed my room "request" yesterday and will hope or the best.

Coupe more Questions

1) How big are the fridges at CSR .. are they like a sm. cube "dorm" fridge or the slightly taller ones?

2) I am trying to decide between the grocery delivery and just buying on site store. I am getting basics.. Bottled Waters, Milk, Cereal, Crackers, Yogurt, Candy etc. The delivery service is about $15 fee.

Are the prices at the resort store OK.. or are they way over priced? (I dont mind paying a little more for the convenience of on site store..

Thanks

Couple more questions

1) How big are the fridges at CSR .. are they like a sm. cube "dorm" fridge or the slightly taller ones? Dorm size

2) I am trying to decide between the grocery delivery and just buying on site store. I am getting basics.. Bottled Waters, Milk, Cereal, Crackers, Yogurt, Candy etc. The delivery service is about $15 fee. Panchitos has all those items.

3) Are the prices at the resort store OK.. or are they way over priced? (I dont mind paying a little more for the convenience of on site store. Water is expensive but the other items are a bit high, like a convenience store.

Hi Beachrocker,

A couple of tips for ya: buy your sunscreen prior to Disney because a normal sized bottle was 3 times the price when we went 2 years ago.

Also, when we go, we like to buy some rum and diet coke at the gift shop and pull our chairs on the balcony or sit on a bench by the water while our son is asleep. A nice time for us and our son is very close by so no worries.

Hope you have a great time; we LOVE Coronado and will be there in 19 days!

My house is absolutely filled with excitement..
This is our first trip to Disney W!

I hope it's okay if I hijack this thread!

DH is going to a convention in mid Feb at CSR. We would all like to go with him. His company is being kind of a pain and won't release any details, we're not even certain on his departure date!

But they said it's fine if our entire family stays in his room - there are five of us - three kids, mom and dad. And that we'll have a room with two queens and we can get a rollaway for the 5th person.

As far as I can tell the travel person at corporate doesn't have a clue because them rooms only sleep four, right? And they're only double beds, right?

And can you really put a rollaway in one of these rooms? Would you want to be in a CSR room for 9 nights with five people and a rollaway?

We've been to DW only once and stayed at the Contemporary. We loved the location and the space in the room. I'm tempted to book us there again and make DH take a taxi to the convention but then we lose the advantage of the free room.

Help!!! Can we really sleep five at CSR?

And can you really put a rollaway in one of these rooms? Would you want to be in a CSR room for 9 nights with five people and a rollaway? I can not speak for the five people but you can fit a roll-a-way, see pic below. We use one for our DD.
