FEEDBACK FROM OTHER WEBSITES
THE DISNEY MAGAZINE
In an older edition of the Disney Magazine, they recommended a few pools spots at CSR:
- Best Room-to-Pool Proximity: Book a cabana, casita or rancho room on the ground floor near the quiet pool and you'll be livin' la vida lazy!
- Best Night Swim: Designers of the Coronado's pool complex fashioned an archaeological dig site of a lost Mayan civilization, complete with a 45-foot tall pyramid. After sundown the shadows, cascading water, and spotlights add to the mood.
- Best Large Hot Tub: Why hold family reunions at Uncle Joe's house in Scranton when the Coronado has as 22-person Jacuzzi.

Coronado Springs is my Best Value choice in the Moderate category. It has several advantages compared with the other Moderate resorts.
It is newer, so there has been less wear-and-tear on everything. Also, Coronado Springs is a convention hotel, so it has a few extra amenities
not offered at the other Moderates, including a salon, a health club and a more upscale food court.
The theming is radically different in the three areas of Coronado Springs. You can request a specific area when booking but there is no
guarantee you'll get your request.
- The Spanish-style Casitas at Coronado Springs are very peaceful, with courtyards featuring tiled fountains. Casitas Buildings 1, 3 and 2
(in that order) are the closest to the restaurants and services. Casitas Building 4 contains the spa, salon, health club, and quiet pool,
if those are important to you.
- The Cabanas at Coronado Springs have a beachy Caribbean feeling. Cabanas Building 8A is very close to the feature pool, which may be a
blessing (convenience) or a curse (noise, light). Cabanas Building 9B is closest to the marina and relatively convenient to the restaurants and services.
- The Ranchos at Coronado Springs feel quiet and secluded -- some would say isolated -- and feature desert landscaping and pueblo-style architecture. They
look closest to the main pool on a map, but in actuality they are separated from the rest of the property by a swamp, so it can be a fairly long walk from
these buildings to the pool, and a very long walk to the restaurants.
