Your Disney vacation is going to be filled with plenty of activities, but your vacation should also be about getting some down time and relaxing. Plan to spend at least one day of the vacation resting and recuperating at Disney Caribbean Beach, which has plenty to offer your family in the way of entertainment. Take a dip in the Old Port Royale Pool or enjoy a family meal at the resort restaurant Shutters. Disney Caribbean Beach also features daily pirate cruises for the kids.
Choose a room location that will best fit the needs of your group. Some areas of the resort, such as Trinidad South, are more quiet than others; however, these locations may also be further away from the pool, gift shops or may be the last stop on the bus route. For an additional $25 you can upgrade your room to have a view of the water or an adventurous "Pirates of the Caribbean" theme instead of the traditional "Finding Nemo" theme.
If you book a room at Disney Caribbean Beach during the peak seasons you will end up paying more money per night. Make the most of your vacation money by planning your vacation during the off-season. Determining the off-season at Disney is easy if you follow typical school schedules. The busy season includes the winter holidays, Spring Break and summer vacation. Disney breaks down the price range into peak season, regular season and value season, so time your vacation during the value season for optimum savings and fewer crowds.
If traveling to Disney Caribbean Beach with children, take advantage of the child-sitting services in the area such as Kids Nite Out, which provide professional sitters who will come to the hotel room to watch your children so you can have an evening out with a spouse. At the nearby Disney's Beach Club Resort there is a supervised childcare center with activities and games for children to play that is open until midnight. Take the time to go out for a drink at the Banana Cabana, a romantic meal at Shutters or just a stroll on Barefoot Beach.
