Overwater Bungalow Suites In And Around The Caribbean:
Cayo Esperanto in Belize
Imagine not only having your own bungalow over the water, but enjoying it on a private island too. You can experience that at Cayo Esperanto in Belize.
CoCo View Resort in Roatan, Honduras
These overwater suites offer everything you need. Air conditioning, electricity, gorgeous views, marine life around you, and a hammock on your deck so you can enjoy your surroundings.
This is an excellent choice for couples or families that want the beauty of an overwater suite but also love adventure. Not only will you have gorgeous views from your bungalow, but you'll get to experience water sports, diving, snorkeling, horseback riding, swimming with marine life, and more. Anthony's Key Resort has it all!
Mango Creek Lodge in Roatan, Honduras
Another great choice for the adventure lovers. During the day you can enjoy diving, snorkeling, fishing, and even local eco tours. At night lay on the hammock on your deck and watch the clouds change colors with the sunset until the sky is full of stars.
Eclpyse De Mar Acqua Lodge Resort in Boccas Del Torro, Panama
These bungalows actually sleep 4 (one queen bed and two twin beds) which makes it a great option for families looking to enjoy a bungalow together. Jumping from the deck into the ocean? Watching fish swim under your feet through the glass in the floor? Sounds like a kid's paradise!
Punta Caracol Acqua Lodge Resort in Boccas Del Torro, Panama
Want an authentic thatched roof hut over gorgeous blue water surrounded by lush green landscape? This is a perfect option located fairly close to home for those in the Western Hemisphere. Best part is, it's located among a mile long stretch of coral reef allowing guests to see plenty of marine life during their stay.
Coral Lodge Resort in Santa Isabela, Panama
This secluded resort is located near San Blas Islands. It is surrounded by natural habitat making it an excellent destination for nature lovers. Plus, you can't beat the beautiful views from the hammocks on the sundecks of the seven overwater bungalows.
These suites have yet to be built, but when they are completed by late 2015, this resort will hold 58 over-the-water suites, a first for Mexico. (Spa huts are pictured)
9 Beaches in Bermuda
