It definitely seemed like a mix. We were there just to relax and to do as little as possible (which seemed fairly common), but we talked to some other people staying there who went on excursions every day. There doesn't seem like there is that much to do near the hotel (other than a small touristy shopping village). There is also a restaurant (Scotchies) not too far that the shuttle driver said was good that would give you a more authentic local taste than you get at the resort (the resort food was all very good, but definitely in general was a bit milder/blander than we expected).
