That is unbelievably cheap for this property. Are you sure you didn't miss a 0? 
The lowest I have ever seen is about 3x that amount and that's for the "Classic" bungalows, which do not have direct access to the lagoon and may not be over water. I'm not sure, but I don't think they have the see thru floor panel either.
I was monitoring the prices for a while before I booked ours using Marriott Bonvoy points.

May it was a mistake (something like the reimbursement rate from Marriott for Point bookings).

If July 2020 I would have booked right away at that price. I am not targeting this property in BB (prefer StR or Conrad) but at that price I would stay no matter what.
If July 2019 then I guess not a lot of people will make last minute plans like that, but if so then you have gotten yourself a great deal! ^

Is it possible to change a points booking to a cash booking within the 30 days no refund window?

Yes, it is, but can take 2-3 weeks or longer for the refund to show up in your account. I didn't realize this when I found and made several award reservations so I can compare airfares and consult with my wife to decide on the best date. I was shocked when I got the credit card statement...
I have the same night reserved at Conrad where no deposit was charged. I am thinking just sticked with Conrad since I have 6 nights after that.. Additional transportation cost between LM and Conrad might not be worth the 1night at LM.

When booking standard OWB, do SNAs get a premium OWB or something else?
Also, if I can redeem points for a stay of X consecutive nights, but when I try to check for X-1 nights within the same date span the website tells me that they are not taking redemption bookings, is that a Bonvoy issue or hotel's fault?
