- Started my last full day at Disneyland Paris off taking a look around the Newport Bay Club. The lobby was not too crazy this morning so here is a look around.
- A small Christmas tree and beyond it a line of guests.
- They were waiting for a character. There were different ones out throughout the week. Today was Donald Duck.
- Decided to pay the Bay Boutique a visit. 8 days and I had not visited it yet, figured it was time.
- This was around 8:40am and all was quiet in the store.
- This should look familiar to those who have been on the Disney Magic Cruise Ship or visited Tokyo DisneySea
- Moving further into the store there are windows that look out to Lake Disney.
- One of the best views from a common space is this gift shop.
- A look at the luggage for sale.
- Notice the sea life on the carpet.
- Looking up.
- At the far side of the store you can see into the room where Donald was meeting guests.
- Back out to the lobby using the far door.
- The counter on the left is the regular concierge/guest services desk.
- I ventured into the east wing. Had not gone this way the entire visit.
- The east wing hallway.
- Signage to help you find your way.
- I headed down to the pool.
- Arrived at the pool area.
- The Nantucket Pool rules, this is the indoor pool.
- I did not go swimming but did walk into an overlook area to take a look at the pool.
- This area looks like a ship.
- Looking back to where I entered from.
- There were a couple guests in the pool so I shot around them to try and give a look at the area.
- This side looks out toward the walkway around Lake Disney.
- Thought this was an interesting display in the hallway.
- Took the elevator up to our floor and thought it was interesting that this elevator lobby had chairs. The one we typically used all week on the west side did not.
- A map of the floor to give an idea of how it is laid out. Our room was in the center between the two wings. Meaning as far as you could get from an elevator.
- A look outside our window. Starting on the left and panning to the right.
- Moving out to the balcony and looking down you are overlooking the center of the front of the hotel.
- Looking down and left you can see the main entrance driveway.
- A closer look
- Panning to the right more of the trees and plantings in the parking lot.
- Off to the right in the distance construction which I think is part of Val d'Europe.
- Looking further right you can see other rooms and beyond it one of the buildings at the Walt Disney Studios Park.
- Looking toward Val d'Europe
- The sun breaking through the clouds as we prepare to leave for the parks this morning.
- 9:45am and we are setting off for the parks by foot.
