Just a follow up .
Learned a few things about checking around, it seems that certain travel agencies reserve block of rooms, so one agency I called said to bad all booked for what I wanted, just out of curiosity I called another and low & beholden I got the exact room I wanted.
Another interesting fact was the rooms on the web site for the grand pineapple showed no availability, so if I hadn't checked around I would be going to Mexico instead of Negril
Perhaps common knowledge to some but hopefully helpful to somebody out there.
