    Disney's CARIBBEAN BEACH RESORT Information & Questions

    Just got back yesterday from a 1 week stay at CBR. We were in Aruba 51 - great location. Away from the construction and beautiful (and easily manageable) walk to breakfast each morning. At check-in we had to ask for our gift cards, but once we did, they were able to locate them. We requested...

    2018 Bounceback Free Dining Released

    Hopefully someone can answer this question. We're going to be at CBR on Sept. 27. Plan on booking the free dining BB for two separate trips, one in early August , then another in December. Is it possible to book 2 BB reservations for separate times?

    small world vacations

    We have used the same agency, SWV, six times now, three times for Disney cruises and three times for WDW vacation packages. Each time everything has been seamless and our agent has twice been able to get us difficult promotions. For example, she was able to get us three standard rooms at CBR...

    Can't get Yak & Yeti ressie

    Thanks, @Eastern. That makes sense...using GCs is not technically another discount or promotion.

    Can't get Yak & Yeti ressie

    Does anyone know if you can use your birthday $25 voucher combined with your $25 GC for signing up for the Landry's select club...and then pay off the balance owed using a Landry's restaurant GC? Costco has McCormick & Schmick's GCs on special. I was thinking about signing up for the Landry's...

    What's your best kept Disney secrets?

    Not sure this is a secret, but I didn't know you could do this until I stumbled across it online: Instead of spending $$$ on autograph books that end up thrown in a corner after the trip, I purchased Mickey ears for each of my kids and ordered fabric markers in metallic silver on Amazon...

    Bounce Back Offers?

    We're in a similar position. Arriving in Sept. 2017 and hoping to snag a free dining BB offer for sometime in 2018. With the changes to free dining this year I've heard speculation that they might not offer a free dining BB at all. I guess we"ll see...

    Official Disney Cake Chatter - Part V!

    Does anyone happen to know if the construction at CBR impacted the ability to get cakes delivered to rooms at the resort? Just trying to figure out if room delivery is off the table for our Sept/Oct. trip.

    Tickets and Annual Pass Questions - Please add your ticket questions to this thread

    Sorry if this has already been answered. I checked, but didn't see it. Our family of six purchased the minimum park hopper (2 day park hoppers each) required to get the free dining promotion. These tickets were purchased in April after the recent price increase. We don't normally park hop, so...

    Help--any chance for BoG walkin today?

    Same thing happened to us during our November 2016 trip. I asked the CM at BOG check-in about possibly putting our name on a standby/ waitlist. She said they were not accepting any standby guests. As I was about to walk away, she asked how many people were in my party. I stated 4. She said I...

    Disney's CARIBBEAN BEACH RESORT Information & Questions

    Haven't verified this myself yet, and maybe it was already mentioned here, but someone on another site commented that they called Guest Services and were told that the breakfast/dinner buffet that is temporarily being set up at CBR will qualify as a QS credit on the dining plan. The commenter...

    ******Official 2017 Free Dining Plan Watch, Wait, and Dream

    Just wanted to recommend that anyone who modified via phone goes back and double checks their confirmation email/ invoice. Mine was off by $700. When my TA called to get it corrected she was told by the CM that their system had been glitchy and causing errors all day.

    ******Official 2017 Free Dining Plan Watch, Wait, and Dream

    If that's a possibility, that's something we will definitely do! We don't use the PH feature, so if we can book the minimum 2 day PH that is required for FD and upgrade it to a longer base ticket at guest services, that would save us $$$.

    Absolutely! Sending positive vibes and pixie dust wishes your way. It sounds like lots of folks booked multiple reservations, so I have confidence that a decent amount of inventory will open up in the next few days.
