The New Caribbean Beach FAQ Part VII

[dansdad]

Is there a microwave in the rooms?

No. But there are several in the food court.

 

[MsMinnieMouse246]

We check in on Friday. I will find out for you then. I do hope it is opened by the weekend.

Any update on the kids pool? Hope you are having a great time!!

Please add us to the roll call, arriving 12-16-14 departing 12-27-14. Excited for our first stay at CBR! Second time on free dining!

Hi everyone. We are "stuck" at CBR another two days due to the airport shenanigans in Chicago. The staff has been AMAZING, we even get to stay in our same room! They offered a small discount to people who were affected which is greatly appreciated. We have trip insurance so we aren't worried about expenses at this point. Just wanted to let you all know the front desk staff really went above and beyond!

I saw the notice on the United website. A fire in the ATC center! What are the chances of that happening? So glad to hear that you guys are being looked after.

2 more weeks! Eek! Bags packed and ready to roll! Impatiently waiting to drive to the airport. Where's a magic carpet when you need it???

Added our celebration to our ADRs yesterday, what else can I do keep the planning magic going???

 

[DLM1980]

Finally in the air and on our way, a tad late due to Chicago and I may miss my rental pickup but they said I should call when I land to see if they can honor it at the airport....but then no magical express....due hope my bags make it to the cbr if that happens

The splash pad area isn't quite open yet, they had the water running today and were testing chlorine levels, etc. They stated they hope to have it open by the end of the day today. I would think certainly by tomorrow or Monday.

Those are our exact dates as well ... just doing our 1 night at AllStars Music since i managed to snag a room for under $100.00. Our flight doesn't get in till midnight so no sense spending too much. Besides, who am i fooling -- won't be sleeping that night anyway, I'll be too excited

 

[Meldev]

What would you do aruba 56 or Trinidad south 36 - we would move from pirate rooms tomorrow ....

Of course my kids love the pirate rooms (we were unexpectedly 'upgraded' at checkin and resort too full to allow me to refuse it Last night)

 

[Meldev]

Can anyone tell me which walk to OPR is longer? Aruba 56 or Trinidad South 36

That's the same reservation as us, Sat Oct 25 room only then package starts Sunday Can't wait!

 

[Sjsr]

Not sure if anyone has posted this but the kiddie splash area is open today!

I have a feeling LOTS OF PEOPLE are checking in that day!! We're getting there by 8:00 a.m. so i hope we are able to snag a renovated room!!

 

[WhitGB]

Is the resort really as full as it seems? We check in on Wednesday night and will be there for the tower of terror run. I can assume the run just adds more people into the resorts. Has anyone been bumped? A little concerned due to our very late check in.

Thanks

 

[MmmSuite]

Add us to the roll call for Sept 18th-22nd 2015! We booked a bounce back!

I'm so excited to have another trip to look forward to!

Yay! We arrive in 4 days and my kids would have been so bummed if that was still closed.

Eek is it really that full? I'd pick Aruba 56 over Trinidad South 36. We arrive in 4 days and while I'm sure my kids would love the pirate room, I'd much rather be in Jamaica or Aruba.

 

[sbarisch]

Tonight's our last night at CBR and we booked a bounce back for Sept. 26-Oct 4, 2015. It's been an awesome stay and a wonderful resort! We'll see if our flight into Midway tomorrow morning is actually "on time". I, too, would just hate to be "stuck" at CBR another day!

 

[CowboyCO]

We are going 12/21-12/31.

Me, DW and DS15 and DS13
