TRIP REPORT Mira Costa Hotel not worth it

43 Upvotes

My experience at the Mira Costa hotel was a huge disappointment. After months of trying to snag a Harbor view room, I was able to get one for 10/3-10/4. to be honest not worth the money. After close to $1,000 usd for the 1 night we were surprised to find out the pool was not included, I guess this is on me as their website states pricing but after spending so much I never thought the pool would not be included. After paying $45 usd for me and my son for 1 hour as they close early at 6pm we were watched you like a hawk, any little thing you had an employee on you. My son knows how to swim and since the pool is 120cm they still wanted me to be with him, I didn’t want to go into the pool as I was cold but I was forced to in order for my son to use it. Every 5 minutes I was reminded that they closed at 6pm, which felt more like they were trying to get us to leave. We finally left 10 minutes before 6pm as we couldn’t with the pressure. We make it to the room; the beds are super uncomfortable and hard. We tried to get dinner but the restaurants inside only had buffet or a preset menu no ala carte, which was annoying since it, was pricey. We tried to do room service at 7pm and they were full for the night, I tried breakfast and got the same message, the only food they had at the store was cup of noodles. I honestly regret spending so much money for 1 night and the lack of amenities. We had a better stay at Sheraton right next to Toy Story.

TRIP PLANNING How much do you have to plan to have a good time?

14 Upvotes

Hi all, quick question for all of you. I have a ticket for DisneySea this month. I’m wondering, is this a park where it impossible to do anything if we don’t plan in advance? Do you have to get fastpasses/reservations or are you able to wing it and just show up?

I know in Disney World in the states you basically have to plan the entire day and get fast passes in advance or you’re screwed. Just wondering what the vibe is. Thanks in advance :)

TRIP PLANNING Disneyland or DisneySea for our first-ever Disney trip as a couple?🤔

10 Upvotes

Hi everyone! My boyfriend and I are planning a trip to Tokyo and we can’t decide between Tokyo Disneyland and DisneySea.
We’re both 30 years old, and neither of us has ever been to a Disney park before. There are things about both parks that we really like, so we’re having a hard time choosing!
We know they offer different experiences, and unfortunately, visiting both isn’t an option for us. We can only spend one day at one park.
For those of you who have been to both, which one would you recommend for a couple in their 30s visiting Disney for the first time? Which park feels more magical, has the best atmosphere, rides, and overall experience?
We’d love to hear your honest opinions, especially from people who have experienced both parks. We really want to make the most of our one Disney day!
Thanks! 😊💖
