How do Caribbean Overwater Bungalows Differ?

Beyond being closer to home for US residents than Tahiti, Caribbean overwater bungalows are stylistically different. You’ll notice an absence of the thatch-roof Tahitian style in favor of a more sleek, modern aesthetic. Typically you’ll find private decks with direct water access in the Caribbean, but see-through windows in the floor can be hit or miss.

Sandals is the big brand when it comes to Caribbean overwater offerings, unlike Tahiti and the Maldives where you’ll find a host of high-end brands like Ritz Carlton and The Four Seasons. Some of the Caribbean offerings are all-inclusive, with full 24-hour butler service, while others are more a la carte.
