Casitas 4 is where we are hoping to stay this December...lets us know what you think of the area

What would be faster on Sunday 2/14:

DH will finish setting up his booth at the CSR conference center around 10. He is meeting us at DHS as soon as he can get there - hopefully in time for our FP window for Star Tours 11-12. How can he get there fastest?

1. Taking a DHS Bus from CSR
2. Driving a car from CSR to DHS
3. Getting and then taking a cab from CSR to DHS

I'd say Uber it.

Technically CSR seems close enough to the boardwalk area to walk, but is there a sidewalk or path to get there? If not, what's the best recommended way to get there?

I stayed in Casitas 4 this past November, and liked it.

Not a bad walk to the main building and food court.

Food court was decent.

Quiet pool in Casitas 4 is nice, right next to the spa and exercise equipment, and laundry facilities.

Bus service was good.

Never heard any noise from neighbors.

Thank you!

Walking is not really feasible IMO. We usually drive to each of the parks and take the bus to Downtown Disney (Disney Springs). A cab would be quick as well.

Does anyone know which buildings have connecting rooms? Or is it better to request two rooms near each other?

All buildings have some connecting rooms. They are not relegated to one area.

1st stay at Coronado coming up! I am attending a conference 4/9-1/14/16 and I am so excited!

This will be my 1st conference at WDW. I am quite sure that I will want to blow off my conference and just head to the parks, it will take all my will power to keep my butt in my seat until it's over.

I have looked over this thread and the resort looks great. Any tips for conventioneers? Location, food at resort or transportation tips?

I am having gardengrocer.com deliver some items, since this is a convention center, will there will be a fee for delivery (even for groceries)?

No fee for garden grocer, but there is a fee for other packages delivered to the resort.

We are at CS now and I've been taking notes. We went to HS yesterday. Got on the bus at so #2 (outside Casitas 4) at 7:35am. It was 7:43 by the time the bus got around to all the stops and off CS property. We arrived at HS at 7:54. Personally, I didn't think it was that bad at all.

What is the resort fee for an Amazon delivery? TIA.

What is the resort fee for an Amazon delivery? TIA.

I want to say it's $10. If I'm wrong, someone will come along and correct me.

 

[Olaf63]

$3-$10 depending on the weight and size of the box.

So, I just booked CSR BC for my mom and I March 30th-April 7th. We were originally doing a split stay at the Poly and POFQ, but I was getting nervous with so many negative reviews with the Poly. I found a great Orbitz deal and saved $750 on our trip plus we now have breakfast included!

My question is for those of you who have stayed business class, are there soft drinks available in the mornings with breakfast? I'm not a coffee drinker and need my diet coke to get going in the morning. Just wondering if I need to stop by in the evenings and pick one up to save for the morning? Also, does anyone know if CSR sells gallons of distilled water in their gift shop? I have bought it before for my mom's CPAP at POR. Thanks!

Regarding water for the CPAP, I have just bought bottled drinking water from the gift shop and used that. I haven't seen distilled water. It's not gallon size, so I you may need more than one. But for such a short use with the drinking water, you shouldn't see a mineral buildup in the reservoir. If you have any qualms, just rinse it out with distilled water when you get home.

Hi, this thread has been so great! I'm considering staying at CSR for our stay in early September. DH and I will be taking our then 7, 5, and 2 year olds which has me stressing about the buses. I hate the thought of getting on the first stop (in the casitas area of I'm following along correctly) just to have them sit longer on the bus (my 2 yo is not so patient...) so I'd like to get on at the last stop but I'm reading the buses can fill, obviously. I'm just wondering how much of an issue full busses would be during such a slow time of year? Would it be better to risk it for the shorter bus ride with a toddler?

We stayed the first week of June and the buses weren't really over crowded in the morning. Never had to stand. The problem with all resorts is in the evening everyone is leaving at the same time
