overwater bungalow
Lagoon-perched accommodation
An overwater bungalow is a small house or cabin built on stilts above the water, typically in tropical resort settings.
The structure extends over a lagoon or shallow sea, often with a glass floor panel for viewing marine life and direct water access via ladder or steps.
The term evokes luxury travel destinations like the Maldives or Bora Bora: We splurged on an overwater bungalow for our honeymoon.
