Wow! So cool!! Is this something new that the characters are visiting Pop or something special for Easter? My DD was pretty excited to see this!

It's something they do every Easter at every resort.

It's something they do every Easter at every resort.

Thanks. Good to know so that we’re not looking for them during our next trip.

You scan your badge, it registers you as a guest and the gate opens.

I am staying for ten days in October, flying in and not renting a car. My mom is driving over from the Florida west coast for a few days. If there is no attendant and she has no magic band, what happens when she gets to the gate?

There will be a guard there. She'll have to show her ID, give the guard your name if just visiting or the reservation number if she's staying and they will let her in.

That’s actually not a bad idea! Our baby has some slight reflux problems so cold is usually better but it might work? Did you just carrying the powder in the parks and then mix as you needed it?

Yes! We have those too, however, our baby uses Similac Pro Sensitive and I can’t find those anywhere for that specific kind!

We had sensitive too, and we were able to order the single serve prepared bottled from Similac or Amazon, I can’t remember which. I’d look into that, they are so much easier to use than powder! We even bought the disposable caps and nipples that fit on them so nothing to wash.

Just back from PoP and I haven't stayed there in a few years and I have to say WOW for those renovated rooms! We stayed at CSR last summer in a newly renovated room there and this is very comparable - just that the room is a bit smaller. I'm very impressed. Now that there are queen sized beds in the values it makes the moderates less necessary for us. This was a last minute spring break trip booked a few days in advance. My only room request was a refurbed room (standard room booked). Our plane arrived later than it was supposed to (6 hour delay) so we didn't get to the resort until around 6pm. I didn't do online check-in because I wasn't sure our old bands would work with the room but they did - and there wasn't a line at check in. Even though it was spring break and a busy time (several baseball and softball teams staying there also) - resort was clean, quiet, busses ran great - can't wait to stay here again.

If they are refurbishing all the values (?) like this and putting in the queen beds - seems like it makes them way more competitive with the moderate resorts (to me at least!).

Hi everyone! We are really excited for our first Pop Century stay this summer!

Question- Are towels provided at the pools or do I need to pack my own?

I saw info on the first page that states they are not but that was posted in 2014 and not sure if it has (hopefully) changed.

Thanks!

Popping back in the thread. We stayed at the resort in 2016 with a non family member and the trip was less enjoyable than we had hopped for. I booked our Thanksgiving, 2018 trip and are giving Pop another try.

Yes there are towels at the Pop pools now.

Thanks

Stayed at POP 3/24-3/30 and handles were white everywhere we looked. Lids were purple, pink, red & blue.

No green anymore? DH will be disappointed. I really dislike the white handles. When I was there a year ago I managed to get coloured handles but they were few and far between. I like to keep track of my own cup, not just the lid. It’s stupid but that’s me.

When do they start closing earlier? We'll be there the last week of August.
