Is this unreasonable?

So we booked our villa last year, when there were just 2 of us. (the villa advertises that it can sleep 4) We had a lot of homes that we were considering, but we chose this one due to the view and because she offered us $300 off the published rate. So now we have at least 1 more person coming. The 4th has not decided yet. I emailed the owner that our number was for sure up to 3 people and asked for an updated total so I could collect from her. I was thinking that perhaps our per person cost would decrease, if only a little. She responded with the published rate for 3-4 people. I was thinking that since she offered the discount when we booked that the 3-4 person rate would also be discounted. As it stands now, we will actually end up paying more per person than we would have if it was just the 2 of us. I'm super annoyed by this. Was I wrong in expecting that the discount would also follow through for the 3-4 person rate? I realize the rate would go up with more people, and I totally get why, but to go up so much that it gets more expensive per person? That seems unreasonable to me.
