If you want to do sit down meals and shows, consider the most days you can budget. 5 would be ideal -- then you would have plenty of time for all shows, character meals and other TS meals, relaxing by the pool or some spa time, people watching, live music and/or dancing (Royal Swing Ball on Saturday nights doesn't require a partner -- just let us know you're coming!), shopping, rides and re-rides, etc. On site is great, but off site can work really well at DLR. There are so many convenient, affordable, safe hotels near the parks that can save you a lot of money. If that savings translates into more park days, that might be something to consider. This recent thread has very good information: Choosing the Right DLR Area Hotel for You.
