Hydropolis, Dubai: 20,000 Leagues Under the Persian Gulf

June 28, 2004 at 8:07 AM | by | Comments (0)

Harmony of body, mind, and spirit in the Middle East by 2006? According to the project description for the new Hydropolis hotel in Dubai, that is what we can expect when the first underwater luxury hotel opens off the coast of the UAE in December 2006.  Ahhh, the healing power of water.  

Guests will enter the hotel through a tunnel that leads to the Atlantis of the Persian Gulf, where folks will spend the night in a suite complete with clear plastic windows, offering underwater views all around.

The property will house a cinema, cosmetic surgery clinic, marine institute, museum, library and a prayer room.  Furthermore, the guest will be able to rise to the surface and take advantage of a sandy beach complete with snorkeling over the hotel suites.  Oh, and if you are worried about burning in the hot desert sun, don't, Hydropolis will be manufacturing clouds to protect the guests from the powerful Gulf sun.
