Different Perspective Views
Project includes:
The resort would be like a large aquatic creature that stretches right into the
sea with the sea section featuring semi submerged hotels resembling
anchored super yachts. Each of these hotels will have 75 luxury suites
positioned around the perimeter of the building with access to private terraces
and underwater passageways with views of the central marine park that
connect the hotel rooms.
The main lobby of the resort will be focused around an interactive sea life
museum featuring water exhibitions galleries, large aquariums and a glass
passageway leading to the underwater observatory. Guests could travel
around the resort in electric vehicles or could jump on board of one of the 20
meter aluminum yachts with hydrogen engines and underwater viewing
globes.
At 1.4 meters the area is for daytime use with a kitchen and bathroom and
heading below deck and semi submerged at 0.8 above sea level the guest
rooms and bathrooms will be.
At 3 meters below sea level guests could enjoy their own private aquarium
lounge.
Extra features:
It features a land-based entry way that connects to a large hub out in the sea,
with thin, sweeping rings extending outward from the hub. The inner rings
host small floating houses complete with underwater viewing bubbles in the
lower levels of the buildings. Visitors to the resort will jet around on
environmentally friendly yachts and electric vehicles. They really do need to
make the resort as green as possible, because any extra greenhouse gas that
they pump into the atmosphere is just going to accelerate the hotel’s
inevitable, watery fate.
