We booked our OOT guests there for $159 a night in Feb. There rooms are nice, the 2nd floor has been redone, yet I did see the other rooms. We also booked a block of rooms at the Hampton Inn for the same price. The only thing with the Holiday Inn is that they will keep the bar open for you for no additional charge besides cost of alcohol.

Awww I was married there in 2005 - just poking around on here again cause I needed advice for my sister.
We LOVED CB. Had our cocktail hour in the Europa and reception in the Saturnia. So much has changed - it was awesome for us so I am sure it only got better!

NO PROBLEM! I HAD SIX PEOPLE BESIDES MYSELF FOR THE TESTING AND EVERYONE WAS HAPPY WITH THE FOOD. HOPEFULLY EVERYTHING WILL BE AS GOOD AS IT WAS THAT DAY.

Here is my post from this thread from 5/7/08:
Ok so I stopped by CB today to check out the new outside and it is partially done. The chapel area has been redone and new chairs have been added with cushions. They also added an arch down the aisle which is almost finished. There were a bunch of white chairs all around and some guys were still working on the pond and lighting. There was a waterfall which im not sure if that is done just yet either. There is also a new outside bar and a huge BBQ area.
I really hope we have a gorgeous day since we have a steel drum band and it will go perfectly with the new decor. OMG I cannot wait for our wedding!!
