    If you are signed up for the Romance Rewards program, you can go over to CTI from CSS for free. The bus leaves CSS at about 9:00, and comes back at 4:00, on Monday, Wednesday and Friday (only a 5 minute bus ride). You simply need to let guest services know the day before you want to go over. It is definitely worth the trip to see the other resort. The island is unique, and well worth the visit. Although we don't like it anywhere near as much as SSB for many reasons, it is still nice to experience for a day.

    You can visit CSS when you are staying @CN at no charge including transportation by taking advatantage of Trading Places. You have to sign up for Romance Rewards and register for Trading Places 24 hours in advance. You will be@ CSS from 10 am to 4 pm You can go to the island if you like

    Trading Places is a great way to see the other Couples resort in your area

    There is no cost for the day trip and the resorts can't be more than 2-3 miles apart. So it takes 5 minutes to drive from one resort to the other. Its worth it, particularly if you are staying at one resort for 7 or more days as it gives you an idea of what the other resort has to offer. Unfortunately, Tower Isles strong point is their food, particularly at dinner, which you won't get to experience.

    If you're into A/N, then you will enjoy the island as its a unique experience. SSB has more to offer facility wise, but there is something special about the Island.

    Its five mile down the road. The resort driver will take you there and pick you up, so there is no cost. You get to go at 9am and return at 4pm. BUT, you have to have a day pass. Its only on certain days too. So check with receptionist when you are checking in to see if you are elagable for the visit.
    Yes, the island is great. Make sure to check to see if its a red flag day or not. Red flag means the island is closed due to weather. Hope I answerred everything for you.

    It's a short 5-10 minute ride. If you sign up for "Romance Rewards" then the "Trading Places" option becomes available for you to visit CTI from CSS at no additional cost (there is a charge for a "day pass"). The AN Island is different than SSB. It's always worth exploring another Couplese Resort...in preparation for the next visit.

    You're welcome and enjoy!

    It's just down the street from CSS. There is a shuttle that leaves CSS to take you there. No cost. We originally planned to go over during our 10 day stay but changed our mind. We decided we had everythng we needed at CSS! That's just us though. You may want to go over. I believe they go over around 10 am and return around 4 pm. We didn't want to stay that long.

    red flag does not always mean the island is closed.
