Be there on Sunday. Planning a pool day

Come say hello, we will be there Sunday until 1-2pm. Hopefully the guys not working Sunday. We have a couple of mugs working until 13/3 will be fine if you give them a wash if you want them and don’t have any.

So yesterday (maybe they read this thread) they finally put up signs about the pool:

Does anyone know what type of filter the coffeemaker in a 2 bedroom takes. Is it cone or basket type? Help please, we arrive Friday & I'm trying to figure out which type to bring. Thanks.

Wouldn’t they have filters for use in the room already?

When we were there last June, the coffee maker took the basket type. It was a Keurig duo coffee maker.

It’s probably basket type, but we’ve been bringing both kinds because of the uncertainty. They don’t take much space and don’t weigh much!

Not empty ones. They provide coffee in little filter packets, not loose grounds and separate filters. We don’t care for the provided coffee, so we bring our own grounds and filters.

When we were there, they also provide free coffee in the hotel lobby each morning prior to a certain time - maybe 9 AM?

Ahh, gotcha. That makes sense.
I was thinking, whoa they’re picky about filters. lol

From early May through late August 2026, the Green Cabin Room Lounge at Disney’s Vero Beach Resort will close for refurbishment. A temporary lounge space will be available in the SeaGrape Room, located just off the lobby. Additional food and beverage options are available at Wind & Waves Grill, Bar and Market. During this time, Guests may see and hear work during daytime hours.

hope they keep the nautical theming and don't "update" too much... hopefully this means the furniture will be replaced. praying for a new menu up there too!

We just got back from a 5-night stay at Vero (Ocean View Inn room). It had been over ten years since we had visited Vero and I was little nervous based on some of the things I had read, so I thought I'd give a quick summary for those thinking of visiting. We were there for a high school baseball spring training trip, so we spent a lot of time driving to/from the Jackie Robinson Training Complex (about 20 minutes away). It was just my husband and me so I can't comment on any of the kids' activities.

Overall it was a great experience. We did not have any problems with our room and the cast members were great. The weather was not great so other than a couple hours by the pool and beach, we did not try any of the activities that were offered.

Since it wasn't really beach weather, when we weren't at baseball we were looking for things to do. We walked the jungle trail. It was about 7 miles. It was a nice walk except for the last couple of miles when you are on the road. It would definitely be a nice trail to bike as well. We also walked some trails at the Lagoon Greenway. That was a nice walk along the Indian River Lagoon. They had a couple of trails around 2-3 miles.

As far as dining, we ate at Wind & Waves (very average but is fine if you need a place to eat), Green Marlin (excellent, highly recommend), Sean Ryan Pub (big bar, good, affordable bar food), and Curfew (very good, would recommend). The Green Marlin was our favorite. We also spent a couple of nights in the Green Cabin Room, great atmosphere, excellent margaritas! Finally, we ate at the marketplace a couple of times. It was good, a unique menu for a quick service.

My only complaint about the resort is that there should more places to fill up your mug when the marketplace is closed (it was open 8:00-9:00). I did appreciate the coffee in the lobby from 6:00-8:00! If we are back in the area I would not hesitate to stay there again! I hope that helps those of you who are planning a trip!
