Facilities for the resort are located at Old Port Royale, a building containing a food court, arcade, and two gift shops.

The shores of the beaches alongside Barefoot Bay include hammocks, volleyball nets, and other activities. Caribbean Beach also offers a plethora of water sports at the Marina, where guests watercrafts such as Sea Raycer boats by Sea Ray and a variety of others.

Each village has its own swimming pool and some even have their own playground.
