There are five resorts offering overwater bungalows in Central America, and all of them are in the Caribbean side. The most expensive, which is in Belize, is a private island that features a single luxury overwater suite that includes its own servants. The others are much cheaper and more basic, in addition to an all-inclusive resort in Cuba that has overwater rooms in groups of four.
Check our main Caribbean overwater bungalows page for the specifics, but to summarize, you’ll find:
Sandals Royal Caribbean Resort, Montego Bay, Jamaica – An adult only, all inclusive resort featuring a mixture of both land and overwater rooms, this resort offers nightly rates starting out at just under US$3,000.
