A luxury Maldives resort has taken the sleeping under-the-sea phenomenon to a whole new level. It is world’s first undersea residence, constructed in the South Asian island country.
Named the Muraka — or “coral” in the Maldives’ local language Dhivehi — it seeks to provide guests who travel here with an “intimate and immersive experience of one of the Earth’s most breathtaking marine environments.”
There’s a gym, a bar, an infinity pool, butler’s quarters, an ocean-facing bathtub and most importantly an underwater bedroom floor with unparalleled views of the ocean.
Connected to the upper level by a spiral staircase, the undersea suite section will be made up of a king-size bedroom, living area and bathroom.
The top level, which also has a sunrise-facing relaxation deck, measures 550 square meters, while the undersea sections occupies an area of 102 square meters.
