any news on BLT?

 

[CR Resort Fan 4 Life]

We have decided to do a split stay between POP and Comtemp for next July(2010) does Contemp fill up during then?

If you make your reservations well in advance then it's a very good chance you should get the exact room type that you want.

any news on BLT?

It's opening on August 4, 2009 and did you happen to look at the Bay Lake Tower section on the 1st page, because I added some links about it.

Thanks to Craig's Contemporary fan site I added the follow links to the 1st page.

Thanks CR FAN for bumping my question. I guess no one has any idea what is going on there on the 4th. I saw the Cali Grill thing on this website , but I think we are going to go to the parks some that day. Again, if anyone has any info, TIA!

You're welcome and I guess one thing you can do is watch the fireworks from the 4th foor observatio deck, if your not going to be in the parks during that time.

If you made a reservation online with the WDW website and have any requests you would need to call CRO, because they can not be made on the WDW website. If you booked through a AAA travel agent they would have to make the requests for you, because they would own the reservation until the day you check-in.

Is there a way to find out which movies are playing at night by the pool during the week we'll be staying there b4 we go? I like to have everything planned out ahead of time. We have 2 evenings open for other things than parks & the movie may be an option if it's something DS would like. Otherwise, we'll do DTD or the FW Chip N Dale singalong.

The movies that they play should be written down on the activity sheet you get when you check-in. However incase they are not then they are always listed on the schedule board by the pool.

Is there still a computer provided in the standard guest rooms, or do I need to bring my laptop? I keep seeing pics of guest rooms with a computer already in them.

I am sorry to say that a few months ago the computers were taken out of all the guest rooms, so if you saw pictures of them on the WDW website then it needs to be updated.

Thanks for letting me know.

We are staying on the 12th floor so we will not have to use the 4th floor observation deck. We'll probably just come back to the room around 8:30pm and watch them from our balcony. That way we won't have any crowds around us. My mom and dad will be with us this trip and they don't do the whole park thing anymore. They have been to Disney over 100x's and they just enjoy going now to watch their only grandchild have the best time. I love to watch them with her there. Any ways, we will figure out what we plan on doing once we get there. Thanks CR FAN for trying to help with some answers.

Hi everyone! sorry I've been missing for so long.

Thanks for sharing the new links CRF4L. I really appreciate it!

I changed the page that shows the computers in the rooms to say that they have been removed, but internet access is still available for an additional charge.
Thanks for pointing that out, I forgot to do that! I'm kind of bummed about the computers.

Craig you're welcome and I am not sure if you know this but I can not see the pictures you took of the Outer Rim Lounge. When I click the link on your site there is a red x in them, so just thought you should know that.

Another month closer to December. It is 5 months and 3 days until I begin my vacation with a 7 day western cruise and then to Contempory!!!!!!!!

Getting So excited!!!!!

Thanks for catching that! Its fixed now.

I added a new section I am VERY excited about!
Classic Contemporary Resort. Finally, I have all my older photos in one organized location on the site. If anyone has any old photos of the hotel they would like to share, I would love to publish them on the site with full credit to the photographer.

Here is the new page:
