Underwater hospitality: Hotels and restaurants are exploring this option

With big windows and see-through doors, the underwater gives an engaging opportunity to travelers and tourists to be mesmerized by the aquatic world. Undoubtedly, this unusual approach by the hospitality industry is gaining attention.

For their vacations, many tourists desire more than just cities, landscapes and mountains. They keep wanting to explore more. Today, underwater hotels and restaurants are increasingly popular among tourists as they search for unique experiences.

Unlike normal hotels and restaurants, these underwater sites are beneath the water. This gives the tourists and guests the opportunity to see the underwater environment in a captivating and enjoyable way. These are the unique locations that provide visitors the unique experience of being underwater with all the amenities of a standard hotel.

Such hotels or villas can be seen around the world, even though some of their packages are outrageous. Some of these suites include Reefsuites, Australia, Atlantis, The Palm, Dubai, InterContinental Shanghai Wonderland, China, The Manta Resort, Tanzania, Resorts World Sentosa, Singapore and Huvafen Fushi, Maldives.

Despite the expensive packages provided by these villas, their top-notch services continue to attract travelers and explorers who can afford luxury services. Destinations like Maldives particularly thrive on tourism for income generation. According to the United Nations Department of State in 2023, “Tourism is the main source of economic activity for Maldives, directly contributing close to 30 percent of GDP and generating?more than 60 percent of foreign currency earnings.”
