Caribbean beach with 5th sleeper booking for 5 how to?

Hey
I’m pricing up a holiday for 3 adults and two kids 7+11
When pricing up for the free dining offer at the min it will only offer me expensive hotels like the poly or wilderness lodge cabins, but I see the Caribbean beach has two queens and a kids pull down bed 5th sleeper
It won’t price me up for 5 people in this room but it will price me up 4 people in this room
Can you only book for 4 people in this room even though it says 5th sleeper ? And other resorts do 5 to a room?

I'm not sure how as I've booked through travel agents
But we are staying at CRBin a preferred room ( not sure if that makes any difference
3 adults 2 kids

The 5th sleeper category can only be booked by parties of up to 4 (aged 3+) and is a more expensive category than a standard room as they've added a surcharge for the extra bed. Families of 5 can book standard rooms at the lower rate, but there's a glitch with CBR standard rooms at the moment only allowing up to 4 people, but they're hoping to have that fixed within the month. POR also has rooms that sleep 5 and their standard room option is bookable for 5 people, where there's availability. You can also book s preferred room at POR to guarantee a room for 5 too, but will pay the surcharge for the preferred area.

That's because POFQ doesn't have any rooms that sleep 5, so you'd have no choice exceot to book 2 rooms if that's where you want to stay. POR and CBR have rooms that sleep 5.
