That's the great part about the digital age. You can just snap away and just erase the ones you don't like.

I was at SSR in March and missed the movies at the pool (too busy at night). I was wondering if anyone who has been there recently knows if they are still do that?

Also, we are staying at AKV. Is pool hopping allowed during the movies? Is the pool area very full? I was thinking about heading over there for dinner at the Turf Club and staying for a dip and a movie.

Was @ SSR 2 weeks ago and they didn't have any movies.

 

[spaddy]

Oh well, I guess I missed my chance. Still might go for dinner, a dip, and to look at the model.

I am sorry to say we were there last week for two days but never even got the chance to LOOK and SEE if they had movies. We were too on the go.

However, I did see an inflated movie screen set up on the beach of BCV and BC when we were staying at BWV.

It may be only certain days of the week at SSR.

Spaddy, read earlier into this post, and I think there was another thread, and I think it went out on loan to another resort.

We'll be arriving at SSR July 13th- can't wait!! Should we request the grandstand section?? My two kids (5 & 7) love swimming, but my husband & I love a little peace and quiet! Is the grandstand pool a good one? I don't think we want to be near the main pool and buildings. We don't mind a little walking to get to pools and buses, but, since it will be hot hot hot July, we don't want to be too far.

Grandstand sounds perfect for you- but if your kids want to use the slide- only the main pool has a slide. I honestly think all sections are quiet at SSR- so you could request any section for that
Grandstand would put you pretty close to the main buildings and a decent pool
Springs would put you closer to the main buildings/AP... and the main pool.

 

[Calle&Jakesmom]

Thanks for the input. I just found a map of the resort and it looks like Grandstand or Congress park might be best. Can you see DTD fireworks from both? (on the map it looks like maybe you can). Congress park seems like its better for the walk to DTD; Grandstand looks pretty far away. Springs looks good too, but I worry that it's too much in the middle of everything- maybe I'm overthinking this!

 

[Mischa]

We've stayed at Congress Park twice and have not seen the fireworks at DTD. What time are they?

 

[Calle&Jakesmom]

I don't know about the fireworks... I thought someone in this thread mentioned fireworks and I saw on a map a "fireworks viewing area" near the main pool/buildings. maybe they don't have fireworks. I wonder if they are still doing "New Years Eve" fireworks everynight at pleasure Island. They were doing this years and years ago when I was there. Maybe they are and maybe those are what you can see form SSR.

Also, how is the play area at Congress park? Does anyone have pictures? I know most disney resort playareas aren't all that big, usually just a slide and a few things to climb on... is this one any different?

 

[TenThousandVolts]

Unfortunately they don't have nightly fireworks at DTD anymore- They used to- but now it is just New Years Eve and maybe a couple of other nights through the year when there are special events.
Here is the playground at Congress Park. They also have one in the Paddocks I think.

 

[alldiz]

Yes there is a great playground in Congress Park....
right near the pool....

Also there is another playground in the Paddocks....
I didn't go there....but I saw it on the map...and CM mentioned it.
Enjoy....you'll love it.

I was in the 1st Congress Park Bldg....over bridge from springs...
Great location...view of DTD....nice walk to DTD...
and not a bad walk to the main pool...or artist palette.

We stayed in that same building last year. Loved it! Hoping to get it again this Thanksgiving!(We'll be getting in early on Saturday, and have requested CP so I'm crossing my fingers.)
