Using Explorers facilities when not staying there

[alexandra uk]

I've just been looking on The Explorers homepage at photos of their facilities for children and they're great.

Had I known just how good they were I think I would of booked there instead of The Movenpick. If I could, I'd change.

Never mind though. What I want to know is if we were to go and have a few drinks in the bar in The Explorers (its next to the play area/pool) and pay the fee for the play place would there be a problem being as we're not guests at that resort ?

Hi,

sure you can go to the bar and what kind of fee is there for the playground?

And IMHO the Mövenpick is a much better hotel than the Explorers

Hi Renate

I'm not sure how much the fee is for the play area.
All it says on DLP's site is that an extra charge is payable.

I'm thinking maybe they would make us show our room card/key to go in there
I hope not though - my kids love those kind of things.
We've got one near to us and I can never get them out of there once they're in

I'm glad you prefer The Movenpick.
Although The Explorers has so much for children, they don't have a fridge or air con which are both really important to us.

If anyones interested, heres a link to The Explorers homepage.

I just had a look at the Disney brochure and there it is said that you will have to pay if you want to play at the arcade, butif I get it right the plaground is part of the swimming pool so you might only go there as a hotel guest.
Sorry but the Explorers is the only hotel around I never have been

Thats a shame.

Never mind though - I'm sure we'll have plenty to keep us occupied

Thanks Renate

Hi

I stayed in Movenpick last January and my friends were in Explorers. We joined them for a drink on two nights at Explorers and sat just by the bar/pizza place and my daughter and my friends kids were in and out of the Play area. There was no charge to use play area and it was open for all to use so I think you will be ok. The Movenpick is a MUCH nicer hotel and personally I wouldnt be too keen on Explorers. THe rooms in Explorers are very basic, and it always seems hectic wheras the Movenpick is luxurious and much calmer. It has to be a personal choice and maybe with a few kids the Explorers is attractive but for me I'd pick Movenpick any day.
