A luxurious underwater residence has opened in the Maldives. On the Conrad Maldives Rangali Island, this underwater stay is now taking bookings. There is a private residence living space on the surface, with a view of the Indian Ocean, while there is another residence five metres below the surface, allowing guests to get a closer look at the underwater eco-system below.

Sitting atop the water are bedrooms, a bar dining room, gym, staff quarters and a spectacular living space. Whilst below the waves, there is a king-sized bedroom, bathroom and a living area, allowing you to relax whilst surrounded by water.

In addition to these mesmerising views, you have 24/7 butler service and staff on hand to guide you through this experience. Before the visit, to add a personal touch, guests work with a reservation team to make sure that every element is bespoke to the visitor. With a focus on wellness, there are 4 menus to choose from which incorporate food, wellness, adventure and experiences into the trip.

With the Maldives opening the first underwater restaurant it is no surprise that they have jumped into new territory with this underwater stay.

Europe has recently joined the underwater scene with the addition of the underwater restaurant in Norway.
