Family of 6

Are Disney hotel staff strict about room occupancy rules if our family of six books a room for five and only lists four kids and one adult, understanding that one person wouldn’t receive official guest perks?

Yes. If you’re found out you’ll either have to pay for another room or be trespassed from the property.

If one of the children is under 3 they don’t count for occupancy but still need to be included.

There are family suites at All Stats Music and AoA that sleep 6. Or 2 connecting rooms (not guaranteed) would be your best bet.

Yes, it can be an occupancy and health and safety issue. Not a lot of flexibility if you are noticed, and do you really want to be "hiding" having that stress across your entire trip?

The occupancy rules are based on fire code. You really don't want to get messed up by that. One child under age 3 is not counted towards occupancy. So unless you have a little one, I strongly suggest booking a family suite or 2 rooms and request connecting.

The non-guest would not be included for:
  • early entry
  • extended evening hours
  • 7-day advanced booking of LL
  • charging to the room
  • dining plan
  • free waterpark on arrival day this summer
  • possibly transportation issues if restrictions are in place
