Due to a couple shorter trips (4 - 5 days,) our average over the past 8 years is 8 days/7 nights.
However, our normal stay is 10 days/9 nights. This way it makes the trip more relaxed and enjoyable -- no need to rush through the parks to make sure we hit every ride/attraction we want to see....if there is a queue over 20 minutes, we skip it and come back later or another day. This also gives us plenty of time to hit the water parks, DTD, resort hop, etc.
7 days from today we will be on our 9th trip since 2003 (Yeah, I know there are those out there who have made almost that many trips in ONE year!! ) This is a 10 day/9 night trip - staying at Pop on the "Magic, Memories, and More!" package with upgraded dining (standard DDP vs. QS DDP)

When we go as a family (which is now two parents and two adult children), we stay 10-11 days. We haven't strayed from WDW yet. There's plenty to do right there. We like to do all the parks, repeat our favorites, and have plenty of time for resort activities, relaxation, and some fine dining. But if we do it again, we'll probably branch out and explore Universal.
When we go as two adults without "kids", we'll take shorter trips- five-six days, enough time to hit park highlights, maybe finish off the parks, and still fit in some fun evening activities. When we go with just the two of us, it's hard to get us out of World Showcase (but we do visit all parks). We love it there. Next trip, we're trying the Beach Club for the first time to enjoy the Food and Wine Festival.

If you want to enjoy all the parks you need a minimum of 4 days. In 4 days you can go on most of the rides if it is during a slow part of the year. Getting the Park Hopper helps. But at the same time you probably won't have time for waterparks, or to just hang out by the hotel pool. This is also based on two 20-something year olds with NO KIDS, who get to the park by 9:30-10:00am and stay till the park closes every night. So if youre just passing through and want to see Florida, you probably want to research exactly what you want to see at Disney. You should definitely stay at least 1 night anyway to enjoy Disney magic experience.

Our shortest stay was 3 nights, our longest stay was 12 nights, and we've done pretty much everything in between. Our typical stay, however, is 9 nights. That's become our normal trip length.

I've taken 4 trips to WDW, and each were a minimum of 8 days/7 nights, and quite frankly, I feel that's too short. Here's a breakdown of days at
WDW vs. days in "FL" for my trips:
1998: 9 days; 8 WDW, 1 Sea World
1999: 8 days; 7 WDW, 1 Universal
2003: 8 days; 8 WDW
2010: 10 days; 10 WDW
Total: 35 days; 33 WDW, 2 "FL"
Next year? 14 days; 14 WDW!
Viva Darth Macho!

On our first trip we did the 4 night package and felt that was absolutely NOT enough time!
So the next two trips we did the 7 night package and it was wonderful, still wanted more, but at least we didn't feel cheated like we did on out first trip.
Now are planning an 8 night package. Would like to do a 10 night, but just can't fit that into our budget, seeing that we want to keep staying in deluxe resorts (to us, where we stay is part of the magic!).

Normallly 7-10 day trips for us. End of August we stayed for 10 days all within Disney, no rental car since it wasn't needed. My wife and I have gone many times so it's now all about our 4 and 2 yr olds. Besides the parks there is plenty to do at the resorts or Downtown Disney.

We usually do a 4 day trip... The most we have done is 7 days (with Baseball tournament). We do weekends mostly since we live 3 hours away we feel we can come and go when ever. If we lived out of Florida. I would probably do the 10 day trips to fit everything in...
Been there, done that and going back!!! See ya real soon !!!

For us, we haven't done anything outside of Disney.... yet. I know it's coming, and we're planning on a non-Disney vaca.... it just hasn't happened up to this point. Can't keep away!!
So, our Disney trips have grown in length each time... I would have to say that if we could choose our favorite length each trip, it would be to have 10 or 11 days at Disney, with two days being waterpark days if the trip is during the warmer weather.
We like the feeling of settling in and not being rushed... being able to "go with the flow" more, and not feeling we have to get there, do that -- which is how we've felt on shorter trips. That being said, our shorter trips were when we were newer to Disney, as well... my DH and I are taking a short jaunt in October, and I don't have any of the "gotta do this, gotta do that" type feelings I used to have. (Phew!! )
