If you join ambassador, your likelihood increases, as I'm sure it does if you're a RA.
Actually only 1 of those coral suites are used for guests. The other two coral suites have curtains blacking out the windows and doorways and there is a resident cat in the second room.

But 1 Coral suite is used for guests and you could very well end up in it if the resort is sold out. When I was there, I saw guests in the Coral suite for all 3 days. That said, I suspect they will upgrade you if there is a room available. Another benefit of paying the upgrade charge, is that you can select a room with more privacy than a random assignment.
