Traveling as a family of 5

Has anyone stayed at an all inclusive with 3 children? I'm looking at the Hyatt Ziva Rose Hall and the rooms only sleep 4 so we would have to get an adjoining room. Has anyone done this?

Re: Traveling as a family of 5

Can you get a rollaway bed or a room with a sleeper sofa maybe?

How old is your youngest?

My youngest will be 4 and my other 6 and 7. We could definitely fit her in but it says max per room is 4. I did a chat through the website and they said we would need 2 rooms. I think thats crazy for 2 adults and 3 kids!

Oh goodness. I know that. It’s frautsrating. And it’s costing thousands upon thousands with every quote. My youngest is 2 and they still want us to get 2 rooms. Prices out turks and Caicos and getting 16k to travel I’m april. The nick resort in punta cana 11k. WTH??
It’s been super hard to find and travel the 5 of us.

Agree about huge cost of traveling. Often, it makes sense to get a big suite that fits more people (if resort has them). Sometimes I fib about number of kids, but can’t do that at a resort... especially an all inclusive.

It makes no $$$ sense for us to cruise on most cruise lines anymore.

You could call the resort directly and ask if you could add the fifth person to the room for a fee, esp if it is a child. My friend did this at paradisus in DR. It took a little persuading but she was successful.
