- No pets allowed — The resort does not accept pets, so you'll need to make other arrangements if travelling with an animal.
- Limited nightlife — The resort is quiet and private, with live entertainment but no bar scene beyond the on-site lounge.
- Pay for extras — Airport shuttle is paid, and while parking is free, some services like laundry and car hire come at an additional cost.
