THE Manta Resort on Pemba Island has added a
beautiful, other-worldly underwater bedroom to their original 16-room offering.
The underwater hotel room, according to CNN, is placed high on that list of
'amazing' hotels around the world.
The room, lying
approximately 250 metres offshore, the latest underwater structure is a
three-story affair, with a rooftop deck, a bathroom and a lounge area at sea
level and finally the bedroom downstairs, with the fish.
The new 'digs' opened for
business this month, designed by Swedish company Genberg Underwater Hotels.
They are the brains behind the The Utter Inn, an underwater room in the middle
of a Swedish lake which was also one of our 15 unusual places to spend the
night.
At night, spotlights under
the windows attract and illuminate squid and octopus -- a more reclusive crowd
than the daytime sea life. The resort is popular with divers owing to the coral
reef around the island. Manta Resort is managed by the Swedish company
Resort360 AB.
The company is a part of Resort
Investor AB, and is a specialist resort management company acquiring a
carefully assembled collection of properties in and around the Indian Ocean.
Elevated and crafted along
an idyllic island beach, The Manta Resort offers privacy, romance, adventure,
and water sports on East Africa's finest island sanctuary.
The underwater room, goes
for 1,500 US dollars (about 2.4m/-) per night for a two-person stay, or 900 US
dollars (1.44m/-) per night for single.
