Private transfer vs taxi

We'll be landing at CDG around 8 am and will be staying offsite Disney at Hôtel l'Elysée Val d'Europe. I don't think we'll make the TGV that leaves shortly after we land, and it looks like it's a decent wait for the next one. Not a fan of taking the RER and changing stations, so we were considering just going with a simple transfer service like T2 or Prestige Private Transfer (both charge 60 euro) or a taxi.

My question is, for those with experience, is there a benefit of going with a private transfer vs just jumping in a taxi at CDG? We know where the taxi's are, they are always there, and the price should be comparable. But I want to make sure I'm not missing anything. Thank you.

Just to clear up one issue, you don't have to "change stations" on the RER, You just get off at Les Halles and walk across the platform and board the RER A direction Marne la Vallee-Chessy.

Taxi from Disney to CDG last October cost me 100 euros.

I would go with a transfer service. There are few things as comforting as seeing someone holding a sign with your name on it after a transatlantic overnight flight.

I’ve seen many Disney-specific shared-van transport services picking up passengers at CDG over the years. Unlike shared shuttle into Paris, this seems to be an established way to go—no specific recommendation but you know to check reviews. Since you’ve been told the taxi price, you can weigh the pros and cons.
