Checking in here Friday on a 5 night points stay as RA.
I read up thread they usually treat RA's well also on points. Glad to hear that
However, they have modified our booking in an odd way.
Originally I booked a Superior Double with 2 adults and 2 children. Now the booking is modified to 1 adult and 2 children, and the room is now a Double Bed City View. Superior no longer appears to be a room category, looking at their reservations.
I've noticed a similar oddity (change in adults) at our booking for CP LHR...
Strange.

If I remember correctly, the suites I got each time had a sofa-bed in the living room.

Gym/Fitness Center
How is the Gym of the IC Miami? Is it a big one? New Crosstrainer? Machines?
There is a usage-fee of 15 $. As Royal Ambassador it should be free for me.
Is it also free for my wife from the same room or actually only for the RA?

Sorry I can't recall, but it being Miami and all I would expect a decent gym. And the entry should be for free for anyone who cites your last name and room number. IME anyways.

I think is pretty good, big and plenty of cardio and exercise machines maybe not the newest but very decent. Entrance is through Spa, I never was charged for the use of gym...pool deck is nice as well

Special day stay at IC Miami
First time I paid out of pocket for a IC stay in God know how long.
It is my DW's special milestone birthday so I am treating her to a three night stay before our family reunion cruise.
Any dining recommendations for the special day at IC or close by? I am RA so upgrade and Club are expected. Should I notify the hotel to see if there is anything else special?
TIA

As RA on my last stay I got some kind of coupon for the steak restaurant at the IC. I think it was a couple of free drinks or something like that.
You are just a short drive from South Beach where there's lots of choices. There's a really good Cuban restaurant at the Hilton Bentley. De Rodriguez I think it's called now and it's probably the best Cuban on the beach. The nearby MO has pretty good dining too.
