Resorts are not excluded from Platinum upgrades and welcome amenities.

As far as the upgrades go, though, I imagine any rooms that the St. Regis Bora Bora might upgrade you to wouldn't qualify as standard suites. So the upgrade issue is likely moot as far as the T&C of the programs go.

But they aren't exempt as a resort.

And a welcome amenity should certainly be provided, though I imagine this hotel might provide one to everyone regardless of status?
