When we have gone in the past we have always done the DDP and it worked for us. We were two adults and two children. Now that DD and DS are both 'adults' 11 & 14 on the next trip, it does not work out as well. We used to split the food between them when 1 was an adult and the other was a child and it was OK. Now it's way too much food.
Our next trip it really would not work out since my parents will join us for part of the trip and will be staying in our room. I could not justify all the extra credits we would have even using 2 credits on some sit down meals.
It will be much easier I think for us to use the TIW card and just order what we want. I know my parents do not eat the way they want you to on the DDP, most times my mother would rather have a soup and a salad instead of an entree. Plus with my father there we will definitely be using the discount on alcohol which will probably help pay for it in a few days.
