Part 8…Leaving

Couples now delivers eviction notices 2 days prior to leaving. This was a sad reminder our trip was coming to an end.

Previous trips our flights were at 3pm and we were on the...

Nightlife has a lot to do with the crowd at the resort. What month are you going?

ps CSA is worth the wait in my opinion

Karyn,

Did you have specific questions about the Spa that I didn't cover in my review?

If you wear flip flops, you will not be able to go to Feathers, which I highly recommend. I would urge you...

Part 7: Activities, Excursions, and One Love Bus Bar Crawl

Somehow although we were at CSA the longest this trip, yet we did fewer activities. We just don’t want to leave that beach! And by...

We were 2102, the first building next to the lobby, on the side going towards center of resort.

Our first trip we were in building on other side of lobby, going towards palms. That was probably...

I was nervous about this as well, since march they were red flagging for wind.

Our trip in april the wind was in low 20s and nothing was closed. At times it was breezy but nothing major. Water was...

One more data point....read an article this week that after the sale closes in the fall they will announce a schedule of when to expect changes, but most likely they will not operate as 1 airline...

No, doesn't matter. My entire middle name is on my passport...and never on my ticket...and never an issue. And i travel frequently.

In my previous trips i saw both, including red bull, but never the sugar free or zero versions.

This year i remember seeing poweraid, cant remember the other 2 but i wasn't looking for it either...

You are very welcome!

S & C,

I had a similar issue this year. The bar that holds drinks on the inside door was missing from the fridge. So as is I couldn't stand up my bottle of wine and didn't want to be wasteful and...

Part 6: Housekeeping and Mini Bar

I see people complain sometimes on the housekeeping schedule. Or lack there of. You can never predict what time they will be around to clean the rooms.

This...

The deal is expected to close in the fall. In my experience, airlines that merge wait until a logical point, like a calendar year, to begin operating as one/changing flights/combining ff programs etc...

I didn't see any kind of flavored creamer. But, to be honest, that's not my thing so it may have been there and I missed it. I'd bring your own to be safe.

Towards the top of your screen click on "Meetup" link....

As I am (finally) getting back in regular routine my time is more limited. So the next few installments might be a bit shorter.

Part 5: Sports Complex and Spa

First I have to share my love for...

OMG - my husband loves this idea. Thank you! And I will also grab some of their focaccia bread from Palms, it is so tasty!

hahha...glad you are enjoying it...

Thanks ....

I am 90% sure until 6:30pm...but 10% of me says until 6pm, I am sure someone here will correct me if I am wrong

You WERE right there!

Thanks for the kind words...this little review is just helping me relive my vacation a bit longer before settling into some ridiculous 300 something countdown!

At CSA last week and saw the calling cards.
We purchased years prior and they were very low cost. Something like $10 for an hour. We only used a few minutes so passed it on to someone else when we...

Part 4…Bars, Nightlife, Crowd, Groups

Sort of random topics, but not really

In my previous review on the beach, I spoke of the 2 beach bars. Which were probably our favorite bars overall. That...

Thank you everyone for the positive feedback!

Part 3…the Food

Part 2…The beach

This trip the beach, specifically on the old side, seemed smaller. Several people think this had to do with Hurricane Sandy. No doubt it will come back. I got to the beach each...

I am going to attempt something here…to write the longest review <ever> of CSA. It will be multiple posts in this thread. I know each year prior to going I become obsessive reading these reviews, so...
