One of the leading resorts in the Mexican Caribbean has added a collection of new overwater villas. 

They’re called “Over-the-water pool villas,” and they’re set on the lagoon at the Banyan Tree Mayakoba resort. 

It’s part of a broader expansion project recently completed by Banyan Tree Mayakoba, Caribbean Journal has learned. 

That includes the addition of 34 new beachfront “pool” suites and a new kids club. 

Banyan Tree Mayakoba, part of the Mayakoba luxury development that also includes resorts from Rosewood and Fairmont, has also added a new beach club called Sands.

It’s one of the ultimate luxuries in a Caribbean resort — having your own private plunge pool.

It’s secluded, it’s private and it’s endlessly indulgent. When your room comes with a pool, it’s more than just a room; it’s a mini villa, a sanctuary.

And amid the current challenges of travel, social distancing is no problem when you have a pool and deck all to yourself.

Here are a dozen-plus Caribbean resorts where you can swim and sun without ever having to leave your own room.

Baoase Luxury Resort, Curaçao

Twelve of the 23 Bali-inspired suites and villas at this rare luxury resort in Curacao have plunge pools set in tropical gardens. For the ultimate in privacy, guests can also book Isla Kiniw, a four-bedroom villa on an island in Spanish Waters Bay that has both a private infinity pool and a private beach.
