Also, is there a good amount of dining options off property/nearby/short cab ride? I don't mind eating at the resort restaurants but would like to get out at least a few of our 5 nights.

Thanks in advance!
I think upgrades at any Caribbean or Mexican property in February or March are probably going to be difficult because this is basically high season. Still, I wouldn't be afraid to push back against the front desk, especially if Marriott.com is showing a better category of rooms available at the time of arrival and check-in. Just be prepared to have the terms and conditions saved.
