We were at CBR, Barbados, 1/2-1/8 (left first thing in the morning). On the 7th, they had installed the slide at the pool in Barbados - we actually ended up spending most of the day at the resort, as it happens. A couple of CM's led pool games for the kids there from 2:00-2:45, and my ds had a blast. Stuff like how long can you bounce around a beach ball (as a group), or Marco Polo but using Finding Nemo. I don't have any pics, since a) I didn't want to get my digicam wet or sandy, and b) I haven't downloaded my 327 pics yet, anyhow! (Plus, I figured Safetymom would keep everyone up to date.)
Anyhow, we loved CBR. Our room (1111) was bright and cheerful. The location worked well for us - close to the bus stop, and while it overlooked the parking lot, there were some big bushes that hid the view. Mousekeeping did a good job - no complaints there. I'd ordered groceries from WeGoShop.com, and included white vinegar to clean the coffeemaker, but it was pretty clean already, so I didn't bother. I did have to call Bell Services to get my groceries delivered to my room, even tho the CM at registration said they'd get delivered without my doing anything.
Food court - so-so. They did give dd a Mickey straw, after she said she didn't want any of her side dishes with her pita pizza, and she used that straw for almost the entire stay! (I'd gotten a 1/2 gal of milk, and we kept pouring it into the same little milk container, lol) I did find out that the full size pizzas count as 2 CS on the
DDP if you get them at the food court instead of getting them delivered, which counts as 2 adult TS. Oh, and you can get fruit for your dessert. I really liked the big oatmeal raisin cookies, too.
As it turned out, ds hated the Poly and AKL when we went over there for dinners, so I'm just as glad I didn't spring for the Poly. I was also very happy for the sand, since dd spent a lot of time playing there.
Oh, and I didn't have any issues with the size, except maybe the fact that it seemed like we had bad bus karma. Almost every time, we waited about 15 minutes for our bus. One day I did walk the entire loop (hoping to get dd down for a nap in the stroller) and enjoyed it a lot.
