CBR is one of my favorite resorts
The resort is cheerful, colorful and and beautiful. We've had many vacations and stayed in Aruba, Jamaica, Martinique, and Trinidad North blds. Never a bad stay!
I remember very well when we first started going to Disney and stayed at CBR we'd be going hard all day then be too exhausted to walk across the bridge from Aruba to the food court for a drink or snack when coming back from parks at night!! Just too tired to walk another step! We pace ourselves a lot better now!! I do like to get a preferred location room if possible just to make it easier, but the walk is really not that bad and can be very pleasant.
Enjoy the food court and gift shop, love getting some food & a cocktail and eating outside in the courtyard; like to visit for those even if not staying at CBR.
Love all the seating areas around the buildings and rooms have always been themed very nice I like them, even with double beds
We were at CBR one time on leap day and the bushes all around the resort were flowering so beautifully
Pools are visually appealing and have fun features, and there are lots of them! Enjoy the boat and bike rentals. The lake is a good place for kids to learn to drive a Sea Raycer, its not a huge body of water and generally not crowded.
I don't care for the Custom House setup, but the setup they have with a bus that comes along and takes you to your building is ok. I would never walk with my luggage from or to Custom house! I liked it a lot better when you were brought to your room in a golf cart years ago - I think that's rare now. I wish the internal bus was a cute Caribbean themed non-diesel vehicle!
Basically I think its all pretty good and have nothing bad to say!
