[pumpkinjl]

Which building at the do you like best? Why?

For the building you suggested:
1. How long is the walk to the monorail?
2. How long of a walk to the pool?
3. How long of a walk to the main food/shopping?

Thank you in advance!

No matter what building you are in the walk to any amenity will be less than 5 minutes.

We recently stayed in Sago Cay and it was perfect for us. The pool was not important but it was super convienent to bus, monorail, boat and Gasparilla Grille. Highly recommend it.

Main Building RPC.

If you mean which outer building:

Sugar Loaf. It is also CL so has breakfast included. It is immediately adjacent to the main building and is situated between the boat dock, main building, swimming pool and marina. Everything (almost) seems to be right outside the Sugar Loaf building.

Non CL outer building: Big Pine Key (near the beach pool, if that is important to you, as well as the courtyard pool) or Boca Chica - both of these are also quite centrally located. All around good locations.
Actually as Dansdad said, all the buildings are great.
The only two buildings with a few rooms that I might try to avoid are Sago Cay and Conch Key. Sago Cay has some rooms with noise issues early in the morning from delivery vehicles (BEEPING) and Conch Key has some rooms with noise issues form the boat dock (horns). Most rooms in all the buildings are just fine, however. Nothing is far away from anything at the GF. It is very compact.

Well, RPC is my fav too, but can't always afford it since we stay 14 days.

For non CL outer buildings Boca Chica is my fav. Central location and close to pools. In August pools are very important to us!!

With the Sago Cay, are the rooms that face that little inlet of water considered lagoon view? If so, can you see the electrical water parade from those rooms?

I liked Big Pines but it's one of the furthest from the main building and the monorail. On the other hand it's one of the closest to the boat dock.

I agree! The GF isn't that spread out so while some buildings are closer to the main areas than others, none of them are far away. As far as favorite buildings, the main building (RPC) is my fav for CL and I love both Big Pine Key & Boca Chica for outer buildings. Both overlook the courtyard pool and although BPK is slightly more convenient to the main building and beach pool as it's just steps away, BC is just a a few extra steps .

They are considered garden view. I could see it as the parade went by. Not as unobstructed as if we had a lake view in Boca Chica. It probably depends on where you're situated in the building.
