Anyone use or heard of TravelNow.com/Interactive Affiliate Network ? I found them on the Theme Park Insider web page.
They have a very good rate for the Caribbean Beach Club.

What dates are you looking for?

I look at the CBR for November and am seeing rates of $133-$148/night, which are rack rates.

 

[Familyof14]

That would be about right since we are looking in mid July.

I just checked and their rates don't look good to me. I think you could do just as well, maybe better, anywhere else. Have you requested a quote from dreams unlimited?

Edited to add: Just to let you know, travelnow is charging rack rates, plus they will add a $5 booking fee. So, you actually will be paying an extra $5 over what you would pay if you reserve directly through Disney.

TN is the only site I have found that will let me book just one night! All the others say there is a 3 night minimum.

 

[jcemom]

I'm positive you can book one night only, because many people do it. I believe there is a three night minimum for packages. Have you tried requesting a quote from Dreams Unlimited? Small World Vacations also seems to come highly recommended. You can also make a reservation directly through Disney at 407-WDISNEY. I know there are several discounts that may be available for you, especially if you have annual passes or a AAA membership. Check this page... Mousesavers.com before you make any reservations to see if there's anything for you!

Dreams Unlimited
Small World Vacations

Thanks, I will try all the suggestions.

I highly recommend Dream Come True Vacations - they respond very quickly to my emails, and automatically applied a code for me and saved me almost $400.

 

[Familyof14]

OK, I am getting price quotes from Dreams and Dream Come True Vacations . Small world required a minimum days stay. I will report when I get the results back.

 

[Familyof14]

Got 6 emails back from Dream Come True. they were a little hard to sift through. The following is the last one I got.

Thank you for requesting a quote
from Dream Come True Vacations.

AAA rates for 1 night at a moderate resort are:

$136/night for a standard room
$144/night for a water view room

These prices include tax.

A roll-away bed would be available for $15 per night.

Please let me know if you have any questions.


That's a great rate if it includes tax like it says. And they are saying that we can put a rollaway in the room.

Does Dream Come True charge a fee?

 

[ILoveWDW2003]

Dream Come True Vacations site, from the top of the main page says:

"No extra fees - all of our services are at no extra cost to you"

Also, doesn't Deb's site (http://www.allearsnet.com/acc/faq_cbr.htm) say "Each room has two full-size beds, except for a few rooms with king-size beds. Up to four guests, and one child under 3 in a crib, are allowed per room. Cots are available at $15/night; call to reserve one in advance."

We've stayed at CBR before twice, and saw people with the cots.

Have you tried calling Disney directly at 407-WDISNEY and asking for the AAA room-only rate? You can ask them about the rollaway too.

Let us know what they say.

I will do that tomorrow. We are thinking of now booking two rooms at the Pop Century instead.

It would be nice having two bathrooms, wouldn't it?!? Keep us updated!

 

[Familyof14]

I didn't call Disney, but I am going to book the two Pop Century rooms with Dream Come True for $84 a night AAA rate ($188 total for two rooms including tax). Not a bad price! Plus we have transportation, a little Disney atmosphere, two baths and the security to leave our luggage while we are at the park!

Thanks for all your help ILOVE WDW.

 

[jcemom]

I'm glad you were able to find something that works for you! Have a fun vacation and I wish I were going with you, lol.

 

[Familyof14]

Thank you!

No problem! My pleasure - I hope you are as pleased with Dream Come True Vacations as I was. Did you book your trip with them yet?

 

[Familyof14]

Waiting to hear back from Joe today and then I will book or ...maybe I was suppose to let him know. I can't remember what i said to him in the last e-mail. LOL One way or another, I will make reservations today. I am ready to wrap this hotel planning up so I can concentrate on the parks (we are also staying at Universal 2 nights pre cruise.).

 

[Familyof14]

I did book yesterday. Joe is the nicest man!
