There was a time when the invitation to sleep at the bottom of the sea wasn’t all that romantic, and it didn’t suggest anything good … but they were other times. Today the imagination cannot keep up with reality, and spending a few nights underwater is not only possible, but you can also choose where!
Yes, because in spite of cultural tourism , that of days gone by when you visited a place to get to know its culture and immerse yourself in traditions, today immersion is much less metaphorical, and we are increasingly moving in the direction of sensationalism. With results, it must be admitted, truly exceptional: here are the 5 underwater hotels in the world!
Manta Resort, Pemba Island, Zanzibar
Sleeping in the middle of the Indian Ocean is possible: the Manta Resort offers the Underwater Room . After all, a name not so original for a 3-storey structure : you want to sunbathe

Utter Inn Hotel, Sweden
We are in Europe, in a country that has nothing to envy of any other country in the world when it comes to innovation. The hotel is located about an hour from Stockholm, off Lake Malaren , and is only open from April to October.
Here too, we are in the presence of a hybrid structure, with an emerged part and a room below sea level, designed by Mikael Genberg but furnished in an absolutely minimal way.
To make the experience and also the preparation sensational: the meeting takes place at the port of Vasteras , and the couple is accompanied by boat to the hotel, about 1 km from the coast. A canoe is also available for guests to reach and explore a nearby uninhabited island during the day .
The price
More or less within everyone’s reach: 120 euros per night !
