That would be enough for us - although as others have said it does depend somewhat on your spending habits. The advice to divide the money up and only spend that days budget is very good - we always do that. Take out any larger expenditure you have planned - eg a mall day, or transport, or a more expensive meal and budget that bit separately.

You don’t mention your eating habits or where you plan to eat, but this can make a huge difference because some of the on-site restaurants are very expensive. Have a think where you are likely to eat, how often, and what you might theoretically eat and do some dummy “orders” using the DIBB menus (I am not sure how to link but it’s one of the tabs along the top). You can also use menus in the Disney app and on Allears for SeaWorld and Universal, and the restaurants own websites for offsite ones like Bahama Breeze.

If you have different spending habits than your partner it maybe helpful to agree a little pot each that you can each spend as you wish. In the heat and worn out from travel and jetlag with a budget is no time to be finding out you love spending lots of little amounts on bath bombs and they were thinking more along the lines of a new iPad . My OH of 12 years and I are completely different - he would go the whole holiday and not buy anything and then buy a few Lacoste t shirts, while I would tend to spend a little bit each day - it more or less evens out.

We are a family of four and stay in a villa, and we have spent $3000 the last few times we have been and that includes shopping at malls, and split our eating between the villa and eating out

Thats more than enough for shopping food etc. We took $5000 for five of us; 4 adults one child and we were able to shop and eat at nice places; of course the other two adult (older kids) took their own shopping money.

Enjoy, have fun and dont worry about the money
