Just back from a week at the resort in Jamaica 45. The walk across the bridge to OPR was not bad at all. The pool was great. We used it almost everyday. It never felt full always plenty of towels, chairs, and life jackets. We lost all hot water one afternoon not just temp but pressure. It was back on after our evening in the park. Mousekeeping was great and luggage was delivered in a timely manner from the bus. Door to the toilet and bathtub didnt lock but we didnt need it. The bus service was good. Never had more than a 5 minute wait. We were usually the first drop off which was nice. The beds were firm but not hard. I would definitely recommend this resort to others.

I know they had to change fridges last year. Do the new ones fit a gallon of milk or would half gallons fit better?

 

[IrishNYC]

A gallon will fit.

Hello all! I see that lots of ya'll were able to book free dining. Can I just say that I am officially JEALOUS! I just updated the beach bum roll call to add...get this.....37 new people to the list.

It was me! I got a king room but, wanted a standard. I was at the doctor and out of commission yesterday all day and just saw this a few minutes ago. I figured it would be gone but, it was still there! I just called and got it switched. Thank you so much!! You just saved me $186.68!! When we are there, if you see a short, blonde, chunky girl with a 6' tall man, flag me down and I'll buy you a drink! Thank you again!

Yes. Check out the picture in Post #5 of this thread. You will see a gallon of said sweet tea in the fridge and there's room for another gallon.

Fifteen more days and so far the kids are still clueless!!!!

We got to Disney every two years. That's the rule. We just went eight months ago so they don't even remotely suspect this. I'm about to burst.

We are 20 days out and keeping the secret from our kids as well! I don't know if I can hold out much longer, my wife is having to make sure I don't spill the beans!! Maybe we will see y'all there

Please add us to Roll Call....Slaughter Family staying from 9/16 to 9/27 with FD!

I've taken a look at the pictures on page 1 and it looks to me like the Aruba building is Pink & Purple. Is that accurate? Building 51 or 52 look like they are good options.
