Our Most Recent Vacation
The newly renovated lobby is bright, open and inviting.
We felt instantly transported to the Caribbean from the second we hopped into the lobby!
The decorations made us all froggy ready for the holidays!
The food court had great froggy (and family) friendly food!
What we love
Pirate-themed pool, slide, hot tubs and water play area at the Spanish fortress, Fuentes Del Morro
Murphy beds added to most standard rooms will sleep up to five
Beautiful landscaping, with a lush, tropical vibe
1.2-mile running trail around the property
Internal resort bus will take you to all villages and Custom House
Each of the six villages has quiet pools
Market Street is one of our favorite food courts, with a good variety of hot and grab-and-go items
This hotel is the only Moderate hotel on the Disney Skyliner gondola system
Keep in Mind
Largest property of the Moderate Resort Hotels; the resort has its own internal bus transportation
Guests without transportation take buses from Custom House to their room
Your walk to the lobby, pool and dining areas can be quite long if your room is far away
Check-in and bell services are done at the Custom House; which is not connected to the lobby
Pirate-themed rooms are double beds and further from the main building rooms in Trinidad South
The hotel charges $20 per night (sales tax included) for overnight self-parking
Notable Facts
Opened in 1988, Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort was Disney's first Moderate Resort Hotel
Old Port Royal, also called Centertown, is the main hub of activity with its restaurants, concierge and feature pool
Bikes can be rented at Old Port Royal from the Barefoot Bay Marina and Bike Works
Frog Family Tips
Book a preferred room in Buildings 24, 25, and 26 in Martinique and 31, 32 and 33 in Trinidad to be closest to the Fuentes del Morro Pool and dining (we prefer buildings 26, 25 and 31)
Check-in at the Custom House, which is separate from the lobby
On pretty days, take your lunch or dinner from the Old Port Royale Food Court to the covered tables near the pool area
Guests who are unable to use stairs should request first-floor rooms as there are no elevators in any of the "villages"
Pick up a volleyball at the marina and play at Barbados Village
Request a corner room for an additional window that offers more natural light (not all requests are guaranteed)
Best For
Families of five; those who want more amenities than the Value Resort Hotels offer but don't need multiple on-site table-service options and the other amenities of the Deluxe Resort Hotels
