This was my first visit to the Caribbean Beach Resort and I had a really great experience. My family and I typically stay at the Yacht Club resort, which is our favorite resort. However, the CBR exceeded my expectations.
Pros:
- Resort is large and beautiful. Definitely got vacation vibes! We walked around the resort, hung out on the beach, etc.
- Lobby was beautiful - gave deluxe vibes.
- LOVE the Skyliner option for transportation to Epcot & HS
- We ate at the quick serve, Sebastian's and had drinks at Banana Cabana (pool bar). All were excellent. I would absolutely visit these restaurants again. Banana Cabana was a very fun atmosphere for a pool bar.
- We didn't swim, but the pool looked nice (though not as nice as Yacht Club's Stormalong Bay)
- Cast members were friendly and helpful throughout the resort.
- Good value, very affordable.
Cons:
- Rooms were modest - acceptable but could use a refresh.
We stayed in the Aruba section, which we liked for proximity to the Riviera Skyliner and Riviera for dining and bus usage.
