Any surprises like parking problems or bad wifi or noisy pools or dirty beach or anything else that stands out?
As a Titanium, we got upgraded to the "larger guest room" which was nice and spacious and overlooked the pool and had a sectional couch. The room seemed like it had been renovated in the last 5 years or so. Pretty standard Marriott fare. I can't really comment on if an SNA is worth it to you, it looks like they offer pretty standard suites, but nothing particularly individual or unique. If you've got them to burn its probably worth a shot, but its not as aspirational as some of the SNA upgrades you see thrown around on FT.
Can't comment on the beach as we were there for a wedding and didn't have the time, but the pool and hot tub areas were not crowded when we were there (weekend, though it seems like a lot of the hotel was being used for a prom and church convention vs. leisure travelers).
