Palafitos Overwater Bungalows

The short version

If an overwater bungalow is the dream, Palafitos puts one on the Riviera Maya. Lomas says these are the only overwater bungalows in the Mexican Caribbean, and they come with glass floor panels and a private plunge pool. The resort is adults-only and oceanfront, with the Overwater Grill & Bar on site and a two-bedroom Presidential Bungalow that sleeps up to six. Under the More Inclusive plan, guests get unlimited theme water park entry and round-trip Cancún airport transfers.

Before you book

• The Palafitos page names one on-site dining venue, the Overwater Grill & Bar. Ask me what else is open to you before you book a longer stay.
• Palafitos is adults-only, so it isn't an option if children are travelling.
