My people who have done the Disneyland Trips.
How did you plan?
We're looking at 2 Adults one Child.
There may be two more adults, Which in that case I'm thinking on renting a house.
Advice would be great!
Thanks

We are doing Westjet Vacations in Feb. Kids fly way cheaper than booking a regular seat. We have also rented condos on Walnut St when we drove down too. You can Google various ones. One we used is called Funtierland.

I'm asking my travel agent Mattie to help you.

I used Marlin Travel in 7 Oaks in Abbotsford. Took me and two daughters a few years ago and they pulled together a bundle that cost me $1800 Canadian for all 3 of us Flight, Hotel for 5 nights (5th night was free) and 5 day park hopper passes for 3 of us We went in Oct.

Also we stayed at the Tropicana which is right across the street from Main Entrance to the park

Will Def need to look into this a bit more.

We had to fly out of Seattle for this but we left the night before and got a hotel which offered free secure parking for the week as well as drop off and pick up at the airport.

Tickets are way more now... but we got $2100CDN for 9 nights at the Holiday Inn incl direct flights with Westjet from YVR for family of 4. Park tickets excluded.

When it comes to booking trips like these I always find using an agent is best. They know how to mix and match different offers to make it good. Where as trying to do it online you may miss what some places offer.
My agent knew that if I booked with Alaska then booked hotel with them I would get a free night then because I stayed at that hotel I got discounts on park passes. Something I wouldn't of known

Remember always ask what is the best time to go time and also depends on how many days of u are going to

Were fairly flexible at the moment.

W, 3 adults and 2 kids) stayed at Residence Inn. Great breakfast and Happy Hour. Walking distance as well.

Check park hours. I went once and there was the Halloween thing going on most of October....Get a hotel within walking distance so you can take the kid home for a rest a couple times throughout the day.

fly to orlando .. its cheaper and better. car rentals are very cheap and buy your hopper passes for amusement parks on costco.ca

No desire to ever go back to Florida. Didn't enjoy it at all when I last went.

California was a zoo. Never go back. Lego land was a blast and the crowds doable. Rented a house and flew down to la and rented a car. Liked cooking and having a pool in our backyard. The kids got tired of rides and lines and wanted to stay at the pool. 7 and 10

I've read Tuesday - Thursday are the best days to go. And different months in the year. I think we're looking at November of next year

Thank you those who have given helpful suggestions.

Costco in the states has annual passes on for $330. Might be worth looking into.
I've rented the same house through flip key twice.
It worked great for us. You can PM me for more info.
I've also had good luck staying at the Hyatt Orange County . Nice place, family suites and a good shuttle system

We took a hotel close by to be able to go there on foot and took the shuttle from LAX, if you can land in Anaheim, way better! On our last day we rented a car and went to Universal Studios, if you're into Harry Potter, they have a sweet ride down there!

Orange County airport is also close. Supposedly, at 3 people you break even. (Rental car verses shuttle) We were 5 so rented car although other than stopping on way from airport to buy snacks for park) we didn't drive car. Good idea thou if going to Universal.
