There are about 10 overwater bungalow resorts in the Caribbean up to this point, and so far every one of them is a small boutique resort, usually featuing excellent scuba diving. The St. George’s Caye fits that description perfectly, with an excellent location adjacent to the second largest coral reef in the world. This is a popular resort with divers, but it’s also great for any kind of tropical getaway.
One unique thing about this resort is that they don’t allow anyone under the age of 15, so obviously this is not a family resort unless your family is all adults. Being a small resort it seems a decision was made that allowing youngsters to run riot all over would spoil the romantic atmosphere that so many couples come for.
The St. George’s Caye Resort works on an all-inclusive basis with the room, meals, and even unlimited rum punch being included in the base price. The scuba diving is extra, which is true of other resorts in the region, and this makes sense because no one would want to pay a huge extra price if they only wanted a dive or two during their week-long stay.
It’s important to note that this resort is quite posh in many respects, with nightly turndown service and fresh juice included daily, but there are no TVs in the room so guests are meant to be spending time outside in the evenings or in restful solitude.
Do you have to have a passport?
Yes, if you arrive from another country you’ll need a passport to enter Jamaica, even if you are a Jamaican citizen. You don’t need a passport to enter Puerto Rico if you are American, but unfortunately there are no overwater bungalows there. Sorry. -Roger

Yes they are being constructed, I have a friend who is working on the environmental side of the project and I have seen pictures of them under construction, can’t give a finish date though.
Dianne,
It turns out they just announced that they plan to offer them as of November 15, 2016, which is great news. Thanks for the update. -Roger
are they ready yet?
Shadi,
We haven’t heard anything new, unfortunately. I was even in Montego Bay last summer and heard nothing. These Caribbean overwater bungalows never seem to get going, although the ones in the Riviera Maya area will open on September 1, 2016. -Roger
