Which hotel did you prefer, Mira Costa or Fantasy Springs?

Mira Costa for the view, Fantasy Springs Resort for literally everything else. We had a nice theme park view in both, but Mira Costa view was out of this world.

Fantasy Springs felt new and special. I was impressed with every facet of it, and I loved how close Fantasy Springs was.

If you could only stay in one hotel, which would you choose?

Fantasy Springs felt more special.

I just found out I will be going next October and I could cry with excitement. I am looking for any sites or books or anything you found useful.on planning. I am super confused on how to get tickets, reservations, priority seating for parades, etc. Also wondering about quirky and fun things to do in Tokyo.

How was the luggage transfer service between Disney hotels? Or hasn’t that happened yet?

Not OP but I transfered luggage from TDL Hotel and Fantasy Springs hotel and then Fantasy Springs hotel to Ambassador and the process was super easy. You have to "order" the service on the TV in your room at the TDL Hotel and schedule when someone from bell services comes to your room but at Fantasy Springs we just brought our bags to bell services. I scheduled my bag collection at 6 am and the bell service CM came 10 minutes early so that was certainly a surprise.

Nice! Were your bags waiting for you in your new room when it was ready?

Not at Fantasy Springs Hotel but yes at Ambassador. I had to pick them up at the FSH but I waited like 5 minutes for bell services to go in the back and get them.

I have a hotel question: for your FS nights, did you receive 8 priority tickets per person per night or 8 per room (meaning that would be just 4 rides for 2 people)? It's unclear to me because on the TDL website they mention that it is "per room" but I read elsewhere (and now can't find it) that it was 8 per person (so 16). And did you think that side of the hotel was "worth it?"

My package included unlimited fastpass entry for Fantasy Springs attractions, and a selection of other attractions per person.
