The overwater bungalow is the ultimate honeymoon experience. Honeymooners today still have the option to travel to exotic French Polynesia, but now there are more options closer to home as well! Read on for a peek at some of my favorites and contact me today for more information!
Caribbean

No need to travel far to experience a luxury overwater bungalow experience for your honeymoon or bucket list vacation. Did you know that you could have this experience in three different Caribbean destinations currently? From all-inclusive luxury to a boutique resort experience, in just a few hours from the east coast, you could be sipping Pina Coladas on your private deck surrounded by the crystal blue waters of the Caribbean. Plus, enjoy the features such as private plunge pools, over-the-water hammocks, and outdoor showers in these modern, innovative versions of the popular overwater bungalows.

Mexico always offers the best value for all-inclusive resorts and travel packages, and now this includes the ultimate overwater bungalow experience! Located on one of the top-rated beaches in Riviera Maya, these secluded bungalows exude romance and luxury with features such as a private infinity pool on the balcony, a private outdoor shower, glass-bottom floors, and access to an overwater spa and restaurant. Plus, this resort receives high reviews for its dining options and quality. Be prepared to experience dishes to satisfy any palette!

French Polynesia

French Polynesia is the birthplace for the overwater bungalow experience. Tahiti, Moorea, and Bora Bora have lured honeymooners to their islands for years. Honeymoon couples choose this destination for its exotic location and remote feel - with a low population and smaller resorts, it's not hard to feel as if it's just the two of you at times. If you're looking for a more intimate, private experience surrounded by mesmerizing views, this is the spot for you. Spend your days snorkeling off of your private deck, island-hopping, or enjoying a private beach picnic on a remote island. You'll be so exhausted by nighttime that you will enjoy the quiet hours spent lounging in your bungalow after dinner (because there is not much nightlife on these islands).
