That's what a wet bag is for.

I would simply put the "solids" in the toilet, and then put the diaper into my wetbag (a sealed, waterproof, zippered bag) and back into my diaper bag until i get back to the resort.
I didnt even know Cloth Diapers still existed. My mother used them on me but that was 35 years ago.
Cloth diapers are nearly as easy as disposables when you are at home. The only real extra is that you are laundering the cloth bottoms. Your chucking the inserts into your diaper bin is no different than others tossing a dirty disposable into a diaper genie.Wow, are you ever out of the loop!
Cloth diapers never went away, and a diaper service can actually be just as easy as disposables. And cheaper, especially if you'd be buying expensive, premium, healthy disposable diapers anyway.
Seventeen years ago, we had adorable breathable (and yet waterproof!) velcro cloth bottoms and inserts. When the baby needed changing, we'd whip the insert out, drop it in the diaper bin, and put a new one in. The bin had a good filter that meant the smell stayed inside and didn't escape into the house. The cloth bottoms went into the laundry with all the other clothes (they really didn't get too dirty as the inserts soaked up everything). And every Tuesday the diaper company came by, took our bin full of dirty inserts off to be laundered, and gave us an enormous stack of new ones.
No muss, no fuss!
That's actually not any different. Disposable diapers pad a baby's bottom.And my babies especially enjoyed the thick padding on their bums when they were learning to walk. It made falling down on their seat much less ouchy.
My baby wipes didn't smell. I wonder what kind the used?

The extra work related to cloth diapers is kind of the point to this thread. When you are away from home, disposables become far easier than CDs. CD users need a plan for how dirties are going to be handled. The plan for disposable users has exactly one step: Throw out old diaper.

You certainly can't argue it's due to environmental responsibility. You just went to Disney World. One of the most environmentally IR-responsible things you can do on the planet. Unless you go on a Disney Cruise

Huh?
