Awesome update. We did something like 40 parks last year and the Tokyo Disney resort was simply the most amazing. Except for Quassy. ;-)

^ Me too. Tokyo Disneyland and Disneysea has to be the one place that I REALLY want to get to someday.

Robb, (or anyone), what do you think it would cost for airfare, tickets, and say... 4 nights at an on site resort?

This is just REALLY rough, but assume $1500 for airfare, about $400 per night for an on property Disney Resort, and about $250 for a 4-day park hopper. You'll need about $40 per day for food (on the CHEAP) and then whatever extra for "goodies" - what is that....

Realistically, I'd say we spend close to $100 per day between full means, drinks, popcorn, floppy gioza, and other random yummies!

About $3500! Now if you shared that room with someone else that brings the cost down $800 cheaper of course.

So if you and a buddy went you're looking at approx $2700 each.

^ See, I dunno...we've done the resort four times each with different configurations -

1. On property at a Disney Resort Hotel (Ambassador)
2. On property at a Disney partner hotel
3. Off property at the Shinagawa Prince
4. Off Property at the Shinjuku Washington.

And, while the train ride from the Prince to the hotel is not THAT bad, it was SOOOOO NICE staying on property and NOT having to do that insane long walk between rail lines at Tokyo Station 8 times!

Part of it was just how nice the Ambassador and the rest of the Tokyo Disney hotels are. They are the "DisneySea of hotels"

IMO, if you're going to do the "Tokyo Disney Experience" stay on property, even if you're at a partner hotel like the Hilton, but if you want to save some dough, you'll have just as good of time either way.

Is this a joke?

The rooms are super nice, and easily some of the largest in all of Tokyo. Nicer than a Florida Disney Deluxe Hotel and similarly priced when you take Tokyo prices compared to Orlando prices.
