All About Sandals Royal Caribbean Overwater Bungalows
Sandals Royal Caribbean is the birthplace of the overwater bungalows at Sandals resorts, and they are currently being renovated for a fresh look. Reopening in December 2025, these opulent and romantic retreats are extremely popular for honeymoons and special occasion trips.
Here we’ll tell you everything there is to know about the Sandal Royal Caribbean overwater bungalows.
Location
The overwater bungalows at Sandals Royal Caribbean are set on the private island, which is just offshore from the main resort. You get back and forth via a “dragon boat,” which is a fun experience. Guests staying in the overwater bungalows get private transfers back and forth.
The bungalows are perched above the sparkling Caribbean, around a wooden walkway that is heart-shaped. The location on the private island makes them extra peaceful.
The island also features two private beaches, a pool with a swim-up bar, and two restaurants: a fantastic Thai restaurant and the delicious casual Jerk Shack.
Sandals Royal Caribbean itself is located in Montego Bay, Jamaica, just 10 minutes from the airport. Guests here get exchange privileges with nearby Sandals Montego Bay.
Design
There are two kinds of Sandals Royal Caribbean overwater bungalows. Regardless of which one you choose, you get a whole host of extra perks and amenities:
- 24-hr in-room dining
- Personal butler service
- A full bar with premium spirits and sparkling wine
- Personal greeting at the airport, expedited immigration, and private luxury airport transfers in a BMW
- A welcome gift including branded tote and flipflops
- Molton Brown toiletries
- Private water taxi service to and from the main resort
