Sheila54 - I really want to look in to the Marriott deal you referenced, but the link took me to a page that said the session had expired. Which Marriott is it? By EuroDisney or Paris? And it that price per person?

If you do take the ferry, there's a ferry company offering 1 free DLP ticket per car.

Hi

Go onto www.marriott.co.uk

Put in Paris and then add 6 people. Put in the dates that you require and it will show Marriott Village Ile de France.

The price is for a 6 person villa per night, in euros. It is around 3 miles from Disneyland.

They also do 3 bedroom villas for 8 people.

Hi - got back last night from 3 night stay at the Explorers Hotel, Disneyland Paris. Hotel fab - but my comment for others is be aware of the price of food and drink - both in your hotels and in the park. Bottle of water (500ml) - 2 euros 50. The weather was very hot and you can imagine the water we were buying. Food - burger, chips and soft drink - about 9 - 10 euros! In our hotel our choices seemed to be 'buffet style' - for an adult around 21 euros, children 18 euros. Pizza in our hotel - hawaiian for example 10 euros. Mars Bar - 2 euros! Crisps (normal packet size) 1 euro 50. We did find a Mc Donalds, in the Disney Village (at the back on the right) which was more sensible - Happy Meal and 2 adult burger/chips/drink came to 17 euros.

For us it was the only downside - the hotel, free bus to the parks, the parks - all excellent, but we really felt ripped off with the prices of the food and drink. You're in the middle of nowhere - so there's no supermarkets to go to.

Also - prices for gifts - tshirts, cuddly toys etc - much more expensive than buying in the Disney Shops here e.g. hoodie 45 euros, medium plush toy - 15 euros +.

yes thats right. Also there is a shop at the petrol station at the santa Fe thats good for snacks and bottled water. I think it was less than 2 euros for a litre bottle

Serious Moneysavers should go to Val d'Europe and Auchan to buy water. 500 ml that cost 2€50 can be bought for less than 20 cent there...
If you travel by car you could leave a couple of sixpacks in the car and send one person to fill up the rucksack. The guards will not stop ou from bringing in water..

I've just found out I'm going to be working at CDG later this year. I really want to take DD to DLP but just couldn't afford it.

So, now I'm thinking - DD comes over with her Dad on Friday, can sleep in my hotel hopefully (not sure where this will be, but has to be close to CDG) and we go to DLP on Saturday. Is one day enough? I dont know if we can afford 2 day tickets.

Just need to work out whats cheaper, Eurostar - CDG or Easyjet from Luton. Roughly same cost but need to factor travel time to these departure points and cost getting to them.

Is there a bus from CDG to DLP?
