Reserved Umbrella spots..

[momtwoboys]

Anyone have any experience and opinions of the Umbrella reserved spots at BB? I know the cost now... its 58.58 for up to 4 people. I am looking for honest reviews on whether it was better than getting your own seats, or was it not worth it?

We always got to the waterparks when they opened and were able to find spots in the shade (and based on the trees, stayed shady all day).

thank you! We have been to disney tons of times but not a water park. Hear all sorts of things about not being able to get a chair or your things being removed by others. Wasnt sure if the 58.58 umbrella chairs deal was a good thing.

We got it. We would have rented towels anyway and they were included. I also liked that it was away from the mehem of the wave pool. I looked as I was coming in and didnt see ideal free area where we could set up base camp. it was summer and packed! That said I am very fair and DS spends most of his day in the lazy river so our umbrella isnt far from that. So for us it wasnt that much to know we had a set base camp.

We did it a couple of years ago and I was so disappointed that I requested they refund our cost, which they did. The area that we were placed was not convenient and was very unkept. Trash and cigarette butts were everywhere. It was disgusting. It was September when we were there so it was not that busy, so I can't speak if it would be important of it was busy. I would be curious to hear if others had experienced something different.

Thank you! We are going to book one for our day in April, anyone have a number spot that they loved the location?

 

[momtwoboys]

oh yuck just saw your response... glad they gave you your money back. Guess it is a gamble like all extras are... maybe we could book one and if its less than desirable just ask for a refund. Thanks for your honest review!

We now rent the Premium Chair spaces every trip to TL or BB. (On our first 2 trips we came back to find our shaded chairs stolen and our belongings simply thrown in the sand. NOT cool!) We love that the area is private, somewhat secure, guaranteed, is close to a restaurant, and is close to lazy river access. We just like knowing that when we come back from whatever activities we're up to, our things will be there waiting on us.

The premium spaces are over 300? I was trying to figure out why the huge difference in price from the 58.00 space to the 300 one? Any more info on that? Pictures?

Any idea how far in advance I should rent one of these spaces? We tend to pick our waterpark day the night before based upon weather forecasts. Our trip is the second week in June.
