Stonefish can be found anywhere in the Indo-Pacific. Don't walk on coral, and wear reef shoes when wading in the water.

While you can't/shouldn't literally jump from the deck into water from most overwater bungalows, many (most?) do have little ladders into the water that you can descend and swim/snorkel away from.
