Okay, I agree. In the end, after all your "Doors have been opened" you should PM me with your "official guesses". Then I will reveal who is spot on, and who is not "In Sync" with the TC3.

However, I really am enjoying the discussion as to why and why not you are leaning one way or another. But, I'll let you be as clear or as vague as you want to be. ;)
 
Now, Contestants, we come to Door #2. Your second choice is the lovely, the very South-of the-Border, the oh-so-very Spanish-styled

CORONADO SPRINGS RESORT!!!

Come away with us for week-long siesta at the fabulous, mother-of-all haciendas. Dip in the pool at "The Lost City of Cibola" with us, or relax with us at the Siestas Poolside with what else, but a Margarita!!! Ole', baby!

When you are ready to venture out to the onsite entertainment, you won't share a bus with any other resort, and it's only a short hop, skip and jump to any of Disney's 4 theme parks.

Hungry? Coronado Springs has the most diverse food court of any of the resorts, according to most people's opinions!!! Got an itch for grilled foods? No problem! Pasta? Salads? The Pepper Market has that too! But if your looking forward to something a little more upscale, Maya's is the southwest themed, onsite full-service restaurant that can cater to your tastes.

Now, contestants, add this elegant, hot-tub equipped, resort that has all the air of sophistication able to stand up the tastes of the TC3 to your perusal.

If you are still unsure... Please go HERE where you can find the most amazing pictures of this dreamy, Disney-esque resort.

Until Next time, have happy thoughts of this second Disney Home Away from Home.
 
CSR - I'm not buying that one. I think you will go value to save money or DVC or Deluxe to splurge. The moderates don't hold a lot of appeal to me personally and I think we are semi in sync with most things.

BTW - I don't want to steal her thunder but Mary had the most amazing, fabulous day today! She plans to write about it ASAP.

Interesting thoughts there, my friend. We will certainly have to see what our maroo influenced future holds...

I just talked with her for about an hour and a half on the phone. She has had THE most amazing day EVER, and I do mean EVER!!!!! I myself, cannot wait to see and read her trip report!!
 

CSR.... I wish we were back there right now! We L-O-V-E-D CSR last March. While we tour commando.. It was nice and relaxing coming back to the resort. The Disney touches are subtle and not in your face.. but after being in the parks all day, it's perfect!!!! Many people dislike CSR because it is a convention resort.... But from our experience it made it better. Busses were hardly busy, pool wasn't packed, Pepper Market never busy. We did see a few people walking around in business attire but that didn't phase us. CSR has the BIGGEST hot tub out of all the Disney resorts. It also has the longest water slide out of all the moderates. You have your own refrigerator- incase there are leftovers or to keep your beverages cold. Plus you get a coffee maker in the room too- and CSR doesn't use Nescafe!!!!!

There are new flat screen TV's in each room and there are sliding wood doors that separate the wash area and bathroom from the rest of the room. Instead of double beds in each room you have double QUEEN beds!!!!!! All the rooms have been refurbished over the last year or so. You can check out the Official CSR thread here--->http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2232763 Or the CSR picture thread here--->http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1849807

Now I have to think if the TC3 would actually stay here.....:scratchin

Are those YOUR pictures?? Seriously, those are some awesome shots!

Obviously, you are THE guy to be asking all sorts of questions to for this place. Yo' the man!

But, I cannot, no, will not, divulge any classified information to our most worthy contestants before the appointed time. The stakes are much too high.
 
Those are some amazing pictures of CSR! It's one of the few hotels on property I have yet to stay at. I think it could be an excellent contender for the TC3.

I love Pop for a lot of reasons, but I don't see you guys staying there. That resort does not scream girl relaxation to me. :lmao:
 
I'm thinking CSR is a lot more likely to be the place for a girlie getaway. I can see y'all lounging in that hot tub now.
 
CSR is definately would be a nice place to stay. We haven't stayed there, but we've visited there to eat for dinner. We sat outside by the bar and by the water. It was so relaxing!
 
since I'm talking to myself in Maroo's trip report - thought I'd join you over here (thanks for sending me the invite! :thumbsup2) and the next time you talk to her - I'm following her adventures too!! :thumbsup2:thumbsup2:thumbsup2

IF you are going for an upgrade - then you will be wise to book Pop and hope you get upgrade to the 1 bedroom - ;)

I have loved following the tweets and twit pics - it is an AMAZING journey - and i cant wait to read more than the 140 characters!!

Maroo's report got moved over to Trip Report - its no longer a "pre trip" report!

I need to start a pre trip report! :wizard: except I'm boring!! :rotfl2:

Yes those are pictures I took in March. We had an amazing time and loved CSR! If you do have any questions ask away! If I don't know a specific answer I know the people who do! LOL:rotfl:

You can give a few hints though... can't you?:rolleyes1
 
I can't catch up yet.........

But.....


She hasn't told you guys yet????


:rotfl: :lmao: :rotfl2:




*running away now!*
 
This pre-trip report is being HIJACKED!!!

That is right....HIJACKED!


I am not sure if all of you guys are following some of my other threads...but this one...this one... you guys are not going to want to miss....

I must, must tell you about a wonderful morning!


Whatever you do, Don't miss this one!!

I promise I will work on getting this up and going just as soon as possible and will tell you guys all about it!! :)
 
I was thinking it was CSR because it's the only mod with queen sized beds, but the rooms only have one sink :confused3

I know you adored the CB too, but that one didn't make our list. Not very many went for the POP for us, so it will be very interesting indeed, when the time for revelation comes.

I'm thinking CSR is a lot more likely to be the place for a girlie getaway. I can see y'all lounging in that hot tub now.

So can I- definitely!! It does seem so mature and elegant to me.

CSR is definately would be a nice place to stay. We haven't stayed there, but we've visited there to eat for dinner. We sat outside by the bar and by the water. It was so relaxing!

That's what I thought too! A nice girlie chat out by the pool with a glass of chablis, with some nachos from the Pepper. (Right, TK?)

I think folks are waiting for her to get back to post more on hers? I check it once in a while, but to be honest, I really enjoy just picking up the phone and calling her. ;)

Hmm.. now that's something we'll have to make sure maroo is aware of. I hadn't thought of things in quite that light before. :confused3

Thanks for the headsup! I woudl have been looking a long time, before I figured that out~!:laughing: And yes, I think you should start a PTR. You aren't boring, we do need some PTRs with less drama and a here's the facts style. :)

Yes those are pictures I took in March. We had an amazing time and loved CSR! If you do have any questions ask away! If I don't know a specific answer I know the people who do! LOL:rotfl:

I can't believe how many hints we've already given! I think this really ought to be pretty easy in the end.

I can't catch up yet.........

*running away now!*

Run for your life. I have 2 more options for our fair friends.

When maroo hijacks, it is always in a grand style. NOTHING I could ever post here would hold a candle to her stuff over there! Truly, this one will go into the annals of "okay, that was sit-on-the-can reading material, compared to this" PTRs after you hop over to hers.... Nevertheless, I shall plug away and hope you will all come back to play again.

Woot! I'm on my way over!!! :thumbsup2

Go! You'll love it!

I was thinking it was CSR because it's the only mod with queen sized beds, but the rooms only have one sink :confused3

And just who doesn't love a queen-sized bed?? I will admit one sink is a drag, but you can't have everything, right?

Is this a "KLEENEX" warning??

When WISH kids are involved, I highly recommend having something soft available.

Set among the charm and grace of a time gone by in the Deep South is our choice behind Door #3!

Here at the:

Port Orleans Riverside

you'll find that a calm sense of beauty pervades the entire resort. One can choose between the more elegant mansions that evoke a sense of southern aristocracy, or the more subdued section called Alligator Bayou.
l_3c3b3b3068d398ad5fb97b64bfdba45d.jpg


Quiet paths lined with lush landscaping lead you to the Ol' Man Island Swimming Hole and a soothing hot tub to soak away your cares of the day. Of course, there are other quieter pools perfect for enjoying a quiet conversation with friends and family.

After a long day at the parks, a nice meal may be in order. Boatwrights, a full-service restaurant serves a variety of tasty meals, each with a cajun flair, including Jambalaya. If simpler fare fits your appetite, head on over to The Riverside Food Mill, situated right next the giant, fully operational water wheel- this resort's signature icon.

l_0515b230396268002d64ac2c460a3330.jpg


One feature this resort boasts is the unique water transportation directly to Downtown Disney. This 20 minute trip will give you plenty of time to close your eyes and imagine you are taking a trip down Ol' Man River itself.

So, come away with us to a simpler time of plantations and bayou life!
