Is this the Caribbean Beach DVC Development or something entirely separate? I saw a press release saying it would have Skyliner access...

Yes, this is at CBR, but will be it's own resort.

Did they show any concept art? I assume it's a tower if they are talking about views of fireworks.

There was a picture of concept art showing main building that didnt look really tall Im thinking 12 stories.

~edit~ Nevermind danlb_200 post the picture above and from the picture its more like 8 to 10 floors.

Well if it is and the rumored new Brazil Pavilion is built in it rumored location it quite possibly could be its "backdrop" much like how the Hollywood Tower Hotels backside is themed to fit in with Morocco.

It is on the property of CBR, but it will be considered a separate resort.

Kinda hard to say from one picture. I'd like to see what the plans are for the lobby, pool area and rooms.

I'm talking about what could potentially be seen from Epcot.
The facade. It's a generic beige building

Lounge on the top for fireworks viewing?

Yes, this was mentioned in the presentation.

So this is going where Barbados and custom house was? That seems strange as it doesn't fit with the rest of the theme of CBR and will be right next to Jamaica rooms.

 

[ToTBellHop]

Kinda ewww.

I'm liking the hotel in terms of placement and the major bonus of the gondolas. Hopefully we can say goodbye to our timeshare at BLT and pickup the Riviera instead when it goes up for sale.

Jamaica is on the opposite site. It will be right next to Aruba and the remaining three Martinique buildings.
