Homebirth / Hospital birth ?

We are more than likely having our twins abroad. The entire family (All of dads siblings, their kids & a few have grandkids) are staying at the family villa (Hotel they couldn't afford to keep building). We are going for Christmas. And fianc� is due Xmas eve. We were planning on having a homebirth at home. But now we're abroad. My Aunt Aisling is a Midwife, and my uncle Andrew is a doctor, so if we had a homebirth they could assist. But is she goes into labour late Xmas eve would it be disruptive, and the little kids might think Sants won't come because we are up (We get them to sleep saying Santa won't come if your not asleep). But we don't know where the hospital is. We'd find out, but my fianc� doesn't speak their language (I do, fluently). We want a home birth, should we? We could go to a room at the opposite end of the house (Away from the kids' room, where ALL the kids sleep because it's 5 rooms, knocked into 1 with a lot of bunks). So we wont disturb them.
