We are planning on going again in Dec 08 and are trying to paick a resort. We have stayed at WL X2, AKL and FQPO. I love FQPO but my son doesn't want to stay at the same place again but I don't want to spend a lot either.

Please give pros and cons to any suggestions.
THANKS
 
Pop or CSR.

think he would love the slide at CSR.

CSR is not small like POFQ - but it does have adult things. a beauty salon, gym, room service that the other moderates don't have.
 
I agree with Spiceycat :thumbsup2

His age will love CSR pool and slide. Also have the lake amenities and a great food court. I think 2 arcades too. Supposed to be beautiful that time of year.

Save more - POP is great fun and the icons about can be enjoyed by any age. He'll get a kick out of checking out the resort, there are three pools, a good sized arcade and good food court.

Both have great transportation as well.
 
Hi Diane!

I wouldn't go with a value if you don't have to. And, PO-Riverside is kind of the same theming as POFQ. So you are left with CSR and CBR.

Caribbean Beach (I used to work there): Room size is 340 square feet (largest of the mods), most rooms are 2 double beds and a few have king beds. It's a large resort- 2112 rooms. There is an internal bus system that circles the resort continously. One round trip takes about 15 minutes. The bathrooms have a double sink. Avoid Trinidad North if you can- it's really far. If you can, go with a preferred room. It's close to the main pool, food court, restaurants, etc.

Coronado Springs: Room size is 314 square feet, most rooms are 2 double beds. This is also a large resort- 1921 rooms. The pool is awesome. Probably the best of the mods. However, this resort does not have an internal bus system nor does it have preferred room locations (yet). Unlike CBR, the buildings do have elevators.

While I think you can't go wrong with either resort, I am partial to CBR, especially if you get a preferred room location.

Let me know if you would like any more info on these resorts. :goodvibes
 

We stayed in Trinidad North and we were right next to OPR :confused3 Do you mean Trinidad South?

My entire family LOVED CBR!
