Mini Bars At The Caribbean Beach Gone????

[tommy112973]

I WAS WONDERING IF DISNEY HAS REMOVED THE MINI BARS FROM THIS RESORT OR ALL THE RESORTS THAT HAD THIS OPTION AT ONE TIME.....IM STAYING AT THE CARIBBEAN BEACH IN APRIL AND THE LAST TIME THAT I STAYED WAS BACK IN 97....

I've stayed at AKL twice this year....no mini-bar.

Only the concierge rooms have mini bars. Anything you want you're going to get at a gift shop or food court.

I stayed at CB in 2000, no mini-bar. Just go over to "the crossings" buy a disposable styrofoam cooler and fill it up with beer and drinks. Then throw it away when you check out.

man that was a great benefit when i stayed there in 97, i guess the cost cutting has affected everything at WDW, oh well im still gonna have a great time!!! thanks for all the replys!!!!

are you talking about crossroads?

Sorry, yeah I meant Crossroads (Goodings, McDoanlds, Uno's etc.) If you come out of Disney property and make a left instead of going across the road to Crossroads, there is a new Winn-Dixie that just opened about a 1/2 mile down the road on the right. We found this to be a hell of a lot cheaper than the Goodings in the "Crossroads".

We use publix. They are also a lot cheaper. Close to Aniamal Kingdom. We stop there in the beginning of the trip and buy water and soda. Take it in the parks and ask for ice when we are there.

We can take water and snacks in our backpack into the parks? I wasn't sure if they allowed outside food and drink. We're staying at AKL too, is Publix where we want to do our shopping when we're there?

You definately want to go there. It is near the gate that is close to AK. The prices are reasonable (as opposed to Goodings) and there are other stores around. Don't forget to buy the store made popcorn, it is SO good. Not as good as Disney but it 99 cents for 2 of the Disney bucket fulls.
