Overwater Bungalows in Jamaica - An Overview.

Jamaica has long been popular as a luxury honeymoon destination, its resorts can be world class, in particular those of the Sandals Jamaica company which first began its brand of all inclusive opulence right there.

Overwater bungalows are a new addition to the luxury resort sector in Jamaica and it is Sandals again which we can thank for that.

There are two Sandals resorts with overwater bungalows in Jamaica - Sandals Royal Caribbean and Sandals South Coast. Both of these are terrific 5 Star, all inclusive resorts, some of the very best in the Caribbean

Sandals Royal Caribbean is just five miles from the airport on its own private island, which means you can be diving into the sea from your overwater bungalow within almost minutes of your arrival in Jamaica.

It may be tempting therefore to nip in an out but be aware though that there can be a premium to be paid in high season for stays of less than 3 days.

The latter, Sandals South Coast, is about an hour and a half away from the airport and is more secluded and quieter.

Both Sandals overwater bungalow resorts in Jamaica are all inclusive and adults only.

Their overwater bungalows are broadly similar, and similarly impressive, with large outside decks, splash pools and stylish, top of the range, furniture & fittings including the classic glass floor panels.

Why We Like it: One of only two overwater bungalow resorts in Jamaica (the other being Sandals Royal Caribbean), Sandals South Coast is a 5 star luxury, adults only, all inclusive resort which offers Epicurean indulgence in a dreamy Caribbean beach setting.

Sandals Royal Caribbean

Category: 5 Star Luxury Overwater Bungalows, Adults Only Overwater Bungalows, All Inclusive Overwater Bungalows, Overwater Bungalows for Honeymoons, Overwater Resorts with Spa, Overwater Bungalows with Glass Floor, Overwater Bungalows with Private Pool, and Resorts with Private Butler Service
Address: Sandals Cay
Montego Bay
Jamaica

Why We Like it: The couples-only Sandals Royal Caribbean, near Montego Bay and just minutes from Sangster International Airport, was the very first overwater bungalow resort in Jamaica and indeed the first in the entire region. The concept was an immediate success and the Sandals company soon followed it with more bungalows at Sandals South Coast (also in Jamaica) and in their branch in St. Lucia. Sandals Royal Caribbean though was the ground breaker, or well…water breaker, in this region and its standards have been extremely high from the beginning. It is a high end luxury, all inclusive paradise with a private island (where the overwater bungalows are to be found), top of the range facilities, superb food and drink, and consistently excellent service. It also has a tremendous location: getting to most overwater bungalow resorts usually involves a fairly long journey from the nearest airport but here you are, tantalizingly, just minutes (via the resort’s private shuttle) away. Overwater Bungalows: They have a great range of accommodation to choose from; hotel rooms, suites and over the water accommodation offering varying levels of space and luxury to suit most budgets. Their beautiful overwater bungalows, attached to a gorgeous little private island, have set the standards high from the very beginning. They have a tangible sense of luxury, are sleek, modern and spacious (just over 1,100 square feet), and come with outdoor terraces, infinity plunge pools, large glass floor panels, romantic spa style bathrooms with bathtubs, a wealth of modern facilities and 24 hour room service with an exclusive in-room dining menu. Those with the infinity plunge pools will cost you quite a bit extra but they are also more spacious.
