I am so jealous, I love this property. I stayed there at the beginning of the year to celebrate my spouse's birthday. I indicated this was a special event in the notes of the res and at checkin they proceeded to welcome me and thank me for being a platinum, and wished him a Happy Birthday at check-in! Additionally, they upgraded us (we were on a rewards stay) to an ocean view Jr. Suite that was huge and received a handwritten note from the GM with our very generous platinum arrival gift wishing him a happy birthday as well.

This is by far one of the best Marriott/JW properties I have ever stayed at. We actually loved the service so much we ended up buying one of the Marriott Timeshares next door!

So to answer your question, it wouldn't hurt to ask for the Jr. Suite with the ocean view
