fact that almost every overwater bungalow resort in the world is both tropical and remote for most of us, means that airfares are usually going to be a bit expensive as well. There's really no getting around the fact that these long flights to exclusive destinations are never cheap, but you can still find deals at certain times of the year, especially if you fly in the off-season for that particular destination.
Using the airfare search tool just below you’ll be able to enter your travel details in only once and then you’ll be shown a list of the best providers for that particular search. Some airfare sites do better in some areas than others, so this system recommends the ones where you’ll have the best chances of good deals.
It’s also important to check several sites before you choose one because some don’t show all airlines or possible routes. For example, to get from the United States to the South Pacific you’ll almost always fly from Los Angeles to Tahiti on Air Tahiti Nui, but you can also fly that segment on Air France, which sometimes has better deals or more convenient flight schedules. Some sites will show this option but others won’t.
Using the search tool just above you can type in the destination city, but sometimes it won’t be recognized or it will show multiple options instead of just the major airport you want. So with this in mind, here’s a list of the best airports to fly into for overwater bungalows, along with their 3-letter airport codes.
Im interested in know where the overwater bungalows are located. Do they have any that close to Destin Florida?
Nekitha,
There are some overwater bungalows on a lake in the Disney resort. Aside from those the closest are in Jamaica at Sandals. -Roger
I would love to reserve a week stay in an over the water bungalow including May 16th 2021.

thanks
Yanna,
We are simply an online guide to overwater resorts and we don’t do bookings. We do have booking links for every resort on the site, so booking online is usually your best bet. Best of luck with this. In normal years it would be impossible to get a last-minute deal over Christmas, but this year might be different. I’d check agoda.com as they almost always have the best rates in the Maldives. -Roger
Any suggestions as to a nice place for an extended stay? Preferably on a beach, over water and food inclusive. I have heard a rumour about $30 k per couple for a one year stay…any substance to that? We don’t need a year,, but would certainly consider three to five months. We are retired, used to travel a lot, and have homes in Canada and Mexico. We are now a bit bored in Canada and Mexico is a bit dicey.
Any deals?
David,
I’m not aware of any good deals on overwater bungalows in countries where you can stay for extended periods. The Maldives now has a deal for US$30,000 to stay in a water villa for a whole year, but I believe you can only stay 30 days at a time. It’s a really tough time for anything like this, and hopefully next year it will get better. -Roger
