Resort Thread Disney's GRAND FLORIDIAN Resort & Spa + Construction Updates!!

I'm glad some people like them, but I do not find the pool area relaxing at GF... certainly not relaxing enough to make a day of renting a cabana....
 
Kermit Cabanas.

kermit the frog is driving a car and looking out the window .
 
The old birdcage sat on a big platform, which took up the exact same amount of space as the current bar. When they ripped up the flooring to put in the new bar, you could see the outline of the previous platform. They used the same footprint for both.

If you look at the picture posted by @mrsap , you can see how large the platfrom was, still allowing for the tree and gingerbread house.

I think you'll be able to sit on a tree branch to enjoy your drink at that bar :)
 

Thinking about the cabanas.... can you reserve the cabana and have other people not staying at GF use it?

Like can I book it, and then have my best friend who is staying at the Poly use it as long as the total number of people is correct for the cabana?

Maybe that's what some of the overcrowding is from...
 
Yes, that would be a small problem. lol I mean, Disney has Imagineers… let’s imagine we move one of the chandeliers out of the way for a couple months!! How hard could it be?! lol

But seriously, I went back to last year’s picture of the tree, and honestly, it’s not as wide as I pictured it. Even if they slightly position it off center and put it towards the elevator, if need be, I’d think it would be fine. I retract my original rambling thoughts posted above.

What we really need is a crew of Dis-ers to sit (or stand) at the bar with our bubbly and "cheers" bomb people's Xmas tree photos. Who's in?
