Category: Best Adults Only Overwater Bungalows in Cancun in 2023.
A stay in an overwater bungalow in Cancun might sound the ultimate romantic vacation. So much so that most people imagine overwater bungalows would be strictly for adults only, but this is not always the case.
It needs to be stressed though that even if the resorts, and their overwater bungalows, are family-friendly you will usually not encounter children in the overwater bungalow section.
Nevertheless, if you really want to be sure of a child-free bungalow experience, here are our choices for the best strictly adults-only overwater bungalows & water villas in Cancun in 2023.
Resorts with Overwater Bungalows in Cancun? There are only three!
Only three resorts near Cancun, and in Mexico in general, have overwater bungalows, and they are: Palafitos El Dorado, Rosewood Mayakoba and Banyan Tree Mayakoba. All three of which are just south of Cancun, in Playa del Carmen.
Of the three that do have them it is very difficult to judge which is better overall but we preferred the Palafitos bungalows at El Dorado as they have more of that traditional Polynesian vibe we have grown to like. Others though will doubtless prefer the sleek, modernity of both Rosewood Mayakoba's and Banyan Tree Mayakoba's.
Are they luxury resorts?
Yes, they are definitely luxury resorts - all three are 5-star in fact. Palafitos El Dorado is also adults-only and the only all-inclusive resort of the three. The Rosewood Mayakoba resort is family friendly but the overwater bungalows are for adults only. Banyan Tree then is family friendly - both the overwater bungalows and the resort in general.
Sounds wonderful! But what are prices like?
Sadly prices are not cheap! Budget at least $1,000 USD per night for a stay in an overwater bungalow in Cancun.
>>> Here then are our full reviews of Cancun's quite stunning, dream overwater bungalows....Enjoy!
Address: Carretera Cancun Tulum, Km 55.3 Playa del Carmen Cancun Mexico
Why We Like It: This adults-only, all-inclusive near Cancun is home to Palafitos, the very first overwater bungalows in Mexico (there are now still just three: the other two being the very nearby Rosewood Mayakoba & Banyan Tree Mayakoba) and consistently hits world-class standards for luxury all-inclusives in the Caribbean. It really is a tremendous resort – it has a fabulous location on Maroma Beach, Playa del Carmen – rated one of the Caribbean’s, and in fact, the world’s, best beaches – the accommodation is wonderful across the board and their gourmet food and drink are of the highest quality. Overwater Bungalows: As mentioned, the Palafitos’ bungalows were the very first in Mexico and come with all the features you would expect from such a pioneering resort – glass floor panels, jacuzzis, private infinity pools, outdoor showers, and direct access to the crystal clear waters below your feet. There are two types – the standard Palafitos are closer to the shore and have partial ocean and partial beach views. The ‘Elite Suite Bungalows’ on the other hand are farthest out, at the end of the pier, and have unobstructed ocean READ THE REVIEW
Address: Carretera Federal Cancun - Playa del Carmen Km 298 Playa del Carmen Cancun Mexico
Why We Like It: One of three overwater bungalow resorts near Cancun, Mexico – the others being the nearby Banyan Tree Mayakoba and Palafitos El Dorado resorts – Rosewood Mayakoba shares the same serene Caribbean coast setting along with high-quality accommodation, service, and facilities, in particular its award-winning spa. It is a sophisticated resort and though it attracts a very much high-end clientele, there is little in the way of snootiness. The atmosphere is relaxed and friendly throughout. Overwater Bungalows & Other Accommodation: The resort has 129 sleek and modern suites and villas, including overwater bungalows, of varying sizes from 780 sq. ft. to 1500 sq. ft., all of which come with an array of luxury facilities and the very finest interior design. They all have a sleek and classy modern design and a real sense of luxury. Features include private plunge pools, spacious open-plan bathrooms with bathtubs, indoor and outdoor showers, walk-in closets, and a separate lounge area with seating and dining space.
