The above picture is of the underwater hotel recently completed by Poseidon Resorts. Altogether, there are 24 suites, each suite measuring at 50 square metres. Also, there is a restaurant, bar, a larger suite measuring at over double that of the standard suite, a conference room, a theatre, a wedding chapel, a lounge, and a library! If you're reading this list out loud, the chances are you have now run out of breath! If not, read on. Although it's not Dubai's Hydropolis or Shanghai's Shimao Wonderland, the Poseidon Sea Resorts will certainly be formidable.
It doesn't come cheap though, as the minimum stay (1 week) cost US$30,000! This money does include use of the company aeroplanes, 4 nights in their beach bungalows, and just 2 nights underwater! This price includes, a submarine expedition, as well as the use of a personal submarine to explore the 5,000 acre lagoon.
It all sounds great (if you overlook the price!) but would you really want to have an underwater holiday? Cabin fever and hydrophobia kicking in at the same time, while you are thinking, "Could this thing run out of air?" If you are ok with living underwater, this would be your thing. There would certainly be some spectacular views, but would you want to stay there?
