Hi Steven,
Welcome back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel. It's great to have you joining us.
I actually just returned from a stay in a standard room in Building 3 of the Casitas settlement of
Disney's Coronado Springs Resort, and I can't recommend it enough! Not only was it just a short walk along the beautiful Lago Dorado to dining at the tasty Pepper Market quick service restaurant, we were close to the first bus stop, La Vida Health Club, and the only lap pool at Walt Disney World Resort! For this triathlete, that was a huge bonus.
We even had an obstructed, but still lovely, view of
Illuminations: Reflections of Earth from the front window in our Resort hotel room.
Now, this section is about as far away from the Dig Site, but the walk to get there is beautiful. I think that makes it worth it.
I hope that helps, Steven. Please let us know how else we can help you plan your next unforgettable Walt Disney World Resort vacation!
Wishing you many magical memories,
Sally
