    Wish I could do mission space! It’s murder on my claustrophobia.

    Does Universal do hotel deals like Disney

    Thank you so much for the explanation of the pricing. I will begin the check back and watch for rates to hopefully fall. As for Disney I guess it depends on what you are looking for. Our resort was a moderate not a deluxe and we had an awesome themed pool with water slide. We had sandy beaches...

    Do universal hotels have discounts?

    We just returned from Carribean Beach at WDW and had a room which slept five for a great price. It was part of a promotion they did. We want to stay at Cabana Bay next June and I’m a little surprised at the prices I’m seeing. Do prices come down as it gets closer? Do they ever take a percentage...

    Does Universal do hotel deals like Disney

    We just recently stayed at Carribean Beach and had a fantastic visit and a good rate thanks to a percentage off the rack rate.the room slept five. I was looking into cabana bay for June 2020 as we will only be doing Universal parks and I feel like you get much less for your money. Do they ever...

    Rope-dropping BTMR

    Sad to hear of long waits at rope drop for BTMR. Last year in June we rode it three times with little to no wait back to back. I’m guessing they were still running both sides back then.

    Moana rumored to be replacing tiki room

    I’ve never made it to Disneyland but hopefully one day. And I promise if you were in The show with us you’d be happy to see another family singing and dancing in our seats. I have never watched other families in there. Perhaps they look at us singing and grinning from ear to ear, with weird...

    Moana rumored to be replacing tiki room

    I unfollowed them. I don’t like a group that is constantly posting rumors and in my opinion acts like they are true. That’s just my opinion. But mostly I didn’t like how they were responding to people calling them out. I’d rather them own up to the mistake. Maybe Disney will overlay this with...

    Moana rumored to be replacing tiki room

    I messaged them and I don’t do that normally but ETR? Heck no don’t touch that. I’d deal with a temporary addition to it for a celebration but that’s it. We never ever miss seeing the show. It’s a family favorite and I have teenagers!

    Am i crazy? Long haul flight then straight to parks?

    This is so true. We didn’t enjoy Epcot this trip and we usually do and it’s because we went on arrival day. We were also the most tired in that park which seems odd being the first one we went to. I had more energy our last day.

    Am i crazy? Long haul flight then straight to parks?

    We just drove 7.5 hours and went straight to a park. I won’t do it again. Although we were at that park from 3 until 8 so I might could do it for a quick ride. Honestly I’ve enjoyed swimming in the pool and to bed early on arrival day much more than going to a park. For all four of us that first...

    Crowd calendar

    i like Touring Plans but please know I use it similar to a game app. I mess around with creating different touring plans. I check crowd levels etc. But I don’t plan my days based on the crowd calendars and don’t actually use the plans I create. It’s just a fun way for me to brainstorm routes to...

    Arriving before parks open to minimise the wait for popular rides

    So true about early lunch! We had such a nice early lunch as soon as Thunder Falls Terrace opened in IOA. Nobody else was there. We are always ready for lunch by 11:00 because we eat breakfast sometimes at 7:00.

    Disney's CARIBBEAN BEACH RESORT Information & Questions

    We found the beds comfortable. Granted at the end of a theme park day we were tired. But no one in the party complained once about the beds. I did take my own pillow because I’m picky about pillows.

    Arriving before parks open to minimise the wait for popular rides

    Another thing as an avid rope dropper: That hour before park opens is cooler. Much cooler in terms of temp. And we sit not stand. I take a breakfast in my pack and we often eat while we wait in the cool shade. If you have a Fp for say Space and Splash you can hit other rides as a walk on. We...

    Disney's CARIBBEAN BEACH RESORT Information & Questions

    I did want to conquer this fear. I had my husband stand and watch the life guard. There is a button they press which stops the water. He gave me the signal that the life guard wasn’t near the button and down I went! It’s a really good slide for a hotel and the kids and adults there all enjoyed...

    Disney's CARIBBEAN BEACH RESORT Information & Questions

    Leaving resort now. It has been a wonderful five night trip. Crowds very manageable. Last night at MK refresh worked well. We didn’t even finish our third FP until around 6pm but managed to get several additional ones. Even PPF. Went to ride Splash around 10pm and the wait was bad and couldn’t...

    FP TIER changes at DHS as of August 29th

    We are here now and just did two days at Uni and IOA. Best two days so far. We don’t have express pass and still never waited over 25 mins for anything because we rope dropped. At Epcot on arrival evening we never got to do Soarin due to long wait time. Refresh didn’t help us any that late in...
