Let's pretend for a second we've just come into a wedge of money and we can splash out on the ultimate romantic holiday destination: an over water bungalow. It could happen.
Enter: Sandals' South Coast Bungalows.
Advert
Twelve over water villas in Whitehouse, Jamaica, laid out in a love heart formation, that look down into the Caribbean Sea. We mean quite literally too, given that you can spy marine life through a panel of glass floor in your bedroom, or jump off your terrace straight into the sparkling turquoise waters below.
Already swept up? Just wait until you hear all about the butler service that comes with the villa.
That's right, your very own butler who will greet you with fresh scented towels on arrival with welcome cocktails and snacks, naturally.

They'll bring your luggage to your room, check you in comfortably and privately in your suite and will unpack for you if you require. Yes that's right, they'll unpack and fold your clothes.
Whilst there, they will collect and return laundry if needed, arrange spa treatments and serve you lunch and drinks at the pool or beach. Nope, you don't even have to move from your lounger when you want to tuck into a glass of champers, sushi plates from Sushi on the Sand restaurant or decadent desserts from Cafe de Paris'. Yum.
In the evenings, they will arrange dinner reservations and escort you to the restaurant, or arrange for you to dine in your suite (you can choose food from any of the seven restaurants on site), shine your shoes for dinner (you know, just in case they got a bit dusty from being in your case), and will turn down your room, too.

But the best bit is you'll be provided with a mobile phone so you can contact the butler 24 hours a day, in case you need anything.
For example, all that laying around in your hammock might make you crave a cooling glass of white wine and if so, one quick text and it'll arrive in a jiffy.
Then when you're all ready to sadly head home, your butler will help you pack and arrange your transportation to the airport and of course, wave you off.

This is included in the price of the over water villas, which start at $1,174 (approx £908) per person/per night, and in peak season, $1,268 (approx. £973) per person/per night.
We knew it would hardly be a bargain, but everything about this trip will be pure luxury, hence the appropriate price tag to match. From the in-room bar stocked daily with water, juice, wine and spirits, to your fluffy robes and slippers, the outside balcony bath tub to kick back in, and the over-water hammocks.
You'll also be gifted Molton Brown amenities, which you can use over your his and hers sinks, as well as a branded tote and towel set on arrival. A chauffeur-driven luxury car will also take you to and from the airport.

But it's the setting that will make this trip so special and despite the nine restaurants, hotel pools and bars and a two-mile white sand beach to tempt you, we still think it's going to be difficult to tear yourself away from your breathtaking stilted accommodation.
