There really aren't areas like this in Batuu.
If it *was* intentional, I imagine it was for balance purposes so you have to put in some work with the locals to get your relationships with them up without using a lot of the the perks and powers from Occult sims to get there too quickly. If so, though, it was a poor decision, since a lot of that relationship-building is a little tedious in a "vacation" setting.
