Going for 4 nights, basically Newport Bay option will add on £150 per family. Is it worth it or is Sequoia nice enough?

Is the drive option via the Eurotunnel ok enough to do, or is it worth paying the extra £300 per family to do Eurostar?

Any advice gratefully accepted, thanks!

Sequoia is fine, just a bit further walk (say 10 mins more)

Driving is fine - as is Eurostar. Depends on your time and budget really.

Personally I preferred Newport Bay but tbh there isn't a lot of difference in faciltiies. It was just dh and I at Newport Bay but 4 of us at Sequoia Lodge. We spent very little time at the hotel and in SL had a lakeside view into the Disney Village (noisy open air stage until midnight). The drive down is pretty straightforward.

Newport Bay has more space in the bedrooms. Sequoia has just beds, when ds little he had to play with his bits and pieces on the bed, as no floorspace.

Meal times slightly more refined at Newport, more restaurant, than school dining hall!

Closer walk for tired legs at end of the day.

We drove using the tunnel and stayed at the Newport Bay Club. It was very nice and I would highly recommend it. Can't really comment on the Sequoia Lodge as I haven't been there.

Thanks everyone, went for Newport Bay in the end as rooms looked bigger and swimming pool / hotel more 'impressive'. Eurotunnel, 4 night/5 day stay, park admission, B+B, Buffalo Bill show all included for £800 per family, and mid June. Am pretty impressed!

I am so [envious] we stayed at the newport bay and loved it. The pool was really quiet and the boys had so much fun in there after the park and as a break.

I would so love to go back and am hoping our numbers come it.

Have fun
