hi all,
dd and i just returned from 10 night stay at csr. this was 1st time at this resort(stayed at asmovies last trip) and we just loved it. it is a beautiful resort. we had requested 9b or 8a but got 8b instead, so were a little disappointed, we did get a parking lot view, but it really did not make much difference, by the time we got to our room at night we just wanted to sleep! the bus stop was 2 min walk which was great, and the nice thing about staying in the cabanas was the 5 min scenic walk to the lobby and restaurants. we did get our other requests, 1st floor, no smoking. we walked all around the resort a couple of times and were surprised that cm's were driving around in little carts offering rides to guests, we declined but this is nice for tired travellors since the resort is large. bell services were great as was housekeeping. busses ran often, but we got conflicting answers on whether there were busses directly from csr to boardwalk. the cm at check in said this service was no longer available, info at mk said it was. we were at the front bus stop #1 one morn and asked the cm who was tracking where everyone was going and she thought there was, but went and called transp. office and said no it was discontinued. we asked 2 dd bus drivers if they were stopping at bw too but they said no, but on our last day we saw a bus at csr that said bw/dd/tl ! guess they must be having trouble deciding this one!

i still wouldn't hesitate to return to asmovies but if we could get a special rate(99.00) for csr again i would love to go back.

This is one of my favorite resorts. As of the buses to boardwalk I guess it depends on the season and guest requests for this feature. When we went in Jan., during the WDW marathon the buses were up and running.

katypop,

thank you for the report on csr. i am staying there with my hubby for our honeymoon in october. csr will be the first resort we have ever stayed at wdw, so we were very nervous about our choice.. but after reading your report, we can rest assure that our honeymoon will be a blast!!!
 
Glad you liked CSR katypop. We love this resort too. I hope when we go in 4 days the BW bus is running. I love that perk. Thanks for the trip report.

I wish time flies by fast so that I no longer need to wait!!!!

Wish you a nice trip to CSR and tell us about your trip upon return, please!

Thanks pop. We'll be at CSR for the first time May 4th. Hey wait thats just 5 days. Where did I stash those AP vouchers?
 
Katypop - glad you enjoyed your stay! We too saw the CM's taking guests around the resort - a nice touch! Also, in the rooms, the literature suggested that you could use the bus service as an internal shuttle system. For future guests, the buses stop at Stop #2 first, then Stop #3, then Stop #4 and then Stop #1 last. As a result, if you are at Stop #3 and don't want to walk, you can hop on the next bus and ride to Stop #1 and the main building. I thought this was a pretty neat suggestion! :cool:
 
hi Jaguar9748, you're absolutely right, i forgot to mention that. we saw quite a few people board at our stop, bus stop #4 and get off at #1. the only bus that was stopping at #1 first was the DD bus.

hey Buzz2001-you must be leaving tomorrow:D have a wonderful time and let us know what a great trip you've had when you get back. how long are going for?

BoyLovesBuzz, that must mean you are leaving in 3 more days:D have a great time and remember to bring back a great report for us!

Mickey 76- you must be getting closer too:D have a fun trip!
