This seafloor hotel puts a whole new perspective to the term, “sleeping with the fishes.”
Welcome to the Poseidon Undersea Resort, a getaway of submersible leisure. Situated 40 ft below Fiji’s cerulean crystal waters, this underwater attraction is making waves as the pioneer of aquatic accommodations. Accessible by elevator, the 5,000 acre lagoon complex will boast 25 guest suites, dining quarters, lounge/bar facilities, a fitness center and a venue that couples as a movie theatre and wedding chapel!
L. Bruce Jones, the president of US Submarines, Inc., is the brains fueling this seabed conception. According to their website mission statement, the Poseidon hotel aims to serve as the pinnacle of elite, incomparable luxury by “providing all the comforts, conveniences and opportunities only a world-class resort can offer.”
For the affluent guests who prefer a sun-soaked experience, there will be an above-water purlieu that features 51 luxury suites, 24 beachside bungalows, an assortment of restaurants/cocktail lounges and a premiere boutique. At a $15,000 per week price tag, visitors can indulge in an eclectic range of spa treatments, shopping and cinematic entertainment.
Each unit is to be built with clear, acrylic casings to offer spectacular views of coral beds and aquatic life. Feeling frisky in your underwater suite? All rooms will be equipped with interior window films to ensure privacy.
To quench any safety concerns, the resort’s website assures complete structural security. Maintenance procedures will be routinely employed, and each unit will be equipped with a safety dome hatch for emergency rescue.
While design and engineering layouts have been completed, further capital is required to initiate construction. The lavish resort is expected to debut within the next two years, but prospective visitors can visit the official website to reserve their very own suite under the sea.
