  • 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.

    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, their gourmet food and drink is of the highest quality, and the activities on offer are numerous.

    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, partial beach views.

    The ‘Elite Suite Bungalows’ on the other hand are farthest out, at the end of the pier, and have unobstructed ocean views. Thus they are more exclusive and peaceful, and give more of a at one with the water type feeling.

    You’ll be paying an extra premium for that privilege though of course, that’s if you are lucky enough to get one – The Elite Bungalows are, despite the hefty extra charge, extremely popular and get booked out much further in advance.

    Check them both out on the booking page here.

    Both are pretty much identical internally though – they both cover roughly 600 square feet and are incredibly luxurious.

    They come with extra large, terrifically comfortable double beds, a seating/dining area, sections of glass bottom floor, a jacuzzi, an infinity type plunge pool on the terrace overlooking the water plus an outdoor shower.

    Other facilities include WiFi, cable TV, air con, iPod docks, mini bar, 24 hour room service and private butler service.

    Prices & Availability:

    Check out all the details and compare prices at Booking.com here or at Expedia.com here.

    Note: Like all luxury overwater bungalows around the Caribbean those at Palafitos El Dorado are incredibly sought after – you should really reserve your stay as soon as possible. You are allowed free cancellation on most bookings.  

    Resort Facilities & Things to Do:

    El Dorado Maroma is an all inclusive resort with a great emphasis on gourmet food and drink, with much of the ingredients coming fresh from their own greenhouses.

    You have a good choice of restaurants as well as small, informal ‘Gourmet Tasting Corners’ serving everything from Mexican and Caribbean to Oriental and Italian.

    The main restaurant is the Overwater Grill & Wine Bar which features two glass-floor dining rooms, spectacular views and a wide selection of local and international dishes.

    The breakfast at El Dorado Maroma is a legendary spread and you can order some to be delivered to your room.

    The same goes for any meal actually, 24 hours, and picnic hampers etc. can also be arranged for romantic days out which your private butler will be happy to arrange.

    There are swim-up bars at the two communal swimming pools, a shisha bar and other bars which feature a huge range of wines, beers and mixed drinks as well as live entertainment.

    The resort also has a gym/fitness center and a lovely overwater Spa, the Náay Spa, which uses treatments based on traditional Mayan herbal remedies and antioxidant filled Maroma Beach sea moss.

    Other activities at El Dorado Maroma include beach and water volleyball, yoga, dance classes, cooking classes, scuba diving, snorkeling, jet skiing, almost every water sport you can possibly think of plus various tours and excursions.

    Golfers will be happy to know they can access the nearby Greg Norman designed, 7,000-yard, 18-hole golf course, El Camaleón.

    Resort Location:

    The Palafitos Overwater Bungalows are part of the El Dorado Maroma resort in the upmarket resort town of Playa del Carmen, less than an hour south of Cancun in the heart of Mexico’s Mayan Riviera.

    The resort sits right on Maroma Beach, consistently rated as Mexico’s, and one of the world’s, most beautiful beaches.

    The nearest airport is of course Cancun International Airport where a shuttle bus will be waiting to pick you up.

    Some Guest Reviews:

    Category: 5 Star Luxury Overwater Bungalows, Family Friendly Overwater Bungalows, Overwater Bungalows for Honeymoons, Overwater Resorts with Spa, and Overwater Bungalows with Private Pool
    Address: Banyan Tree Mayakoba
    Cancun
    Mexico
    Why We Like it: The newest of only three overwater bungalow resorts in Mexico, the other two being the nearby Palafitos El Dorado Resort and the even more nearby Rosewood Mayakoba, Banyan Tree Mayakoba is another very much exclusive resort near Playa del Carmen. It wins consistently great reviews for its eco friendly principles, its choice setting, its luxury accommodation and facilities, which include a Greg Norman designed 18 hole golf course and an award winning spa, and gourmet food & drink. Their overwater bungalows are more European chalet-like than rustic Polynesian. The interiors are sleek, modern and plush but with plenty of some nice earthy, back to nature touches. They are set over two floors and offer a far greater sense of privacy than most. Overwater Bungalows & Other Accommodation: The above mentioned over water villas are all doubles with king size bed and are very spacious indeed – over their two floors they cover a full 2400 square feet / 222 sq. meters. They have a heated plunge pool on the private terrace which has views over the lagoon. Their bathrooms are particularly nice with spa baths as standard. As with the resort in general, though they have a sleek modern design, the overriding philosophy with the overwater villas is harmony with nature. The decor and furniture are generally of wood or other organic materials and the many native Yucatan potted plants add an extra earthy, jungly vibe. These overwater villas are an extremely popular choice, and there are only 6 in total, so you can be expect to be disappointed unless booking well in advance. If they do happen to be booked out though the Banyan Tree has a tremendous choice of luxury accommodation, all with private pools, some of the finest in the Cancun region in fact. Prices & Availability: Check out all the details at Booking.com here at Expedia here. or at Trip.com here. Resort Facilities & Things to Do: Banyan Tree guests have access to the Greg Norman designed El Camaleón Golf Course right next door and the resort’s top of the range spa facilities have won many plaudits and awards.

    Address: Carretera Federal Cancun - Playa del Carmen Km 298
    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 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 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. Facilities include WiFi, Satellite TV, DVD player, iPod docks, Bose music systems, personal butlers and 24 hour room service. The bungalows are adults only, though the rest of the resort is family friendly, they have a maximum occupancy of two and feel very spacious indeed with 977 sq. ft. of interior space and 498 sq. ft. of private terrace outside which includes an infinity style plunge pool (that can be heated, rather unnecessarily perhaps). Prices & Availability Check out all the details at Trip.com here or at Expedia.com here. Resort Facilities & Things to Do: Though the overwater bungalows at Rosewood Mayakoba, like in most places, are adults only, the resort itself is family friendly, there is in fact a kids club, and children can be accommodated in the other suites and villas. There are a number of fantastic restaurants to choose from here; Caso del Lago serves Italian with a Mexican twist, Agave Azul mainly does Asian influenced seafood dishes. Punta Bonita is a Mexican bistro while the cool Aqui Mi Quedo serves Mexican and Caribbean street food, has a casual bar like atmosphere, and is adults only.
