Denise as always thanks for taking those great pictures and for posting them.

Once the new KT are built, do you think the view on the right side of the Bayview Towers will be obstructed? I would think definitely yes. They may have to re-catogorize those rooms.

Thanks, Denise!

You are welcome (and CR resort Fan!)

I need to get there early soon, so I can get good pics of the pool for you before anyone arrives. I don't mind doing it, since I have been taking pics of the CR construction every week or two.

Plus better pics on the 3rd floor!

Not that it matters for myself since I have been inside the health club but are you planning on taking pictures of what they offer inside if no one has seen pics in there, or are you not allowed incase anyone happens to be working out?

Thanks! Would you also PLEASE stop by the Tempo Grab and Go to get some pictures? Menu, if THEY HAVE A REFILLABLE SODA AREA, food cases, etc? That is one of the main areas we haven't been able to get concrete info on. Thanks again!!!

Interesting thought. Since they could still see straight out for the Bay Lake view with the Tower, I'm not sure. If not, I'm sure that would be the side people would NOT request if they book Bay Lake view.

Yup!

I think I can be by there Tuesday. I have pics from when it first opened, but not since then.

 

[CR Resort Fan 4 Life]

if THEY HAVE A REFILLABLE SODA AREA

That's the million dollar question we all our having and Denise is the right person to find out the answer. So one way or the other we should know something.

 

[triplefigs]

That has been one of the biggest questions, especially with the new Deluxe Dining Plan. The refillable mugs are part of the plan, but if there is nowhere to use them then ?? Mind doing a bit of sleuthing for us? Thanks again so much. And can I just tell you how jealous I am that you can go to the Parks so much? I keep telling DH we need to move to Orlando.

Hi there, I am interested in the Garden Wing and was wondering if it is actually attached to the Tower or do you have to walk outside to get to the tower? How long does it take you to walk to the monorail? Any other info you could provide about the Wing would be fantastic. I'm trying to decide on either Poly Garden view or Contemporary Garden Wing Standard. I'll be traveling with my four year old DD. Thanks in advance for your help

The Garden Wing is "outside" from the Tower but there is a covered walkway. I had the room farthest from the monorail and it couldn't have been more than 5 minutes from the room to the monorail. And staying in the garden wing lets you avoid the elevator in the tower.

Hi Guys!
So, I guess I need to start narrowing it down.
One question is which pool is "better"? The CR or the GF?

The photos of the CR remind me of the "W" hotels. Is that an accurate assesment?

Thanks so much!

Another perspective of the CR pools. The quiet pool is the farthest, out near Bay Lake. It's 5 ft. deep at the center and has wide steps. The slide into the themed pool is in the foreground and at the bottom of the photo the baby pool is barely visible through the trees. The large tree on the right side of the photo is blocking a view of the wide beach and the fountain play area. I was actually taking a photo of a storm moving in and the lifeguards had made everyone leave the pool area. Sorry for the large size -- Photobucket won't let me reduce the photo for some reason . . .

 

[heath-and-javens-mom]

Great picture! Thanks for shaing! I cant wait till September!!

 

[maidenfairy]

Love the thread. May stay at CR sept. 09. That seems too far away.

 

[Golfing Goofy]

krbq: Thanks for the photo and information. That slide looks pretty long.

 

[Alicnwondrln]

Nice pic krbq

How have you been?

 

[nbodyhome]

I am heading over there today instead, have a meet-up on property this afternoon.

I eat over at the Tempo Grab and Go every so often (good soup), I'll find out on the mugs though.
