The ocean breeze, Caribbean sea, and beautiful off-the-grid locations have been enticing people to overwater bungalows for years. Many people think you have to travel to some tiny exotic island in the middle of the ocean for an experience like this, but Panama is home to some stunning overwater bungalow getaways (and can be much cheaper than other destinations).
