Preferred rooms at CBR are in either Martinique or Barbados. Both are great locations but I would say that Barbados probably edges it as it's closer to the Skyliner station and Spyglass Grill, although we were perfectly happy in Martinique. I'd happily stay in either

Yes, there is an internal resort bus, but by the time you wait for it, you could have walked. The only time we used it was if we'd jut got off the Skyliner and it happened to be at the Skyliner stop - just saved the legs a little bit at the end of a park visit

I’m not so sure my legs will need saving... I’ll probably need the walk with the food I plan to consume hehe

If you have the choice I'd try and stay next to Spyglass grill the area is brilliant we're just back and its 5 mins walk from the skyliner and 10 from centretown.

Tbh walking about the resort was part of the charm for me.

We loved the Skyliner during our stay in October, we were in Barbados with 30 seconds to the bus stop and a 5 minute walk to the Skyliner and Old Port Royale. Personally hope they expand the Skyliner system.

Stayed at CSR first 2 weeks of November and it was fabulous. Resort absolutely beautiful and staff lovely, we stayed in Cabanas and our room looked and felt brand new. Food court very good and staff very happy to swap your dining plan about to accommodate you.
Can’t comment on buses as had a car. You definitely feel like you are getting more than a moderate resort.

Having just been to both it’s 100% Coronado Springs here. Feels like a deluxe resort now. Three bridges is amazing and Barcelona bar and Dahlia lounge also. I’d pay a fair bit more for CSR over CBR. I’d almost put Pop Century on a par with CBR. But all personal choice!

Thanks guys! We’re sticking with CSR but the tower hd become available. Has anyone stayed in both? Do you have a preference?

I’d love the opportunity to stay in the tower however if bathroom privacy is an issue, bear in mind the shower is not separated from the sinks in the tower rooms the way it is in the other rooms in the resort. For some people this is a deal breaker.

I’ve paid for the tower! The shower not being separate doesn’t bother me in the slightest

This is the reason we didn't stay in the tower. If we were just a couple then it wouldn't be an issue, but as a family with a teen it would have made getting ready a lot trickier.
