The 8 Most Unique Hotels Around the World - AFAR

"At the Conrad Maldives Rangali Island, the Muraka is a new, ultra swanky two-level residence decked out with multiple bedrooms, an ocean-view bathtub, and a private infinity pool on the top floor (not to mention 24-hour butler service, a private chef, and on-call spa therapists). But the main event is the master bedroom and bath, down a spiral staircase or elevator, which allows guests to sleep surrounded by turquoise water. Sixteen feet beneath the surface of the Indian Ocean, under a transparent 180-degree curved acrylic dome, guests can lie in bed (or lounge in their sitting area) and have their own private viewing of real-time underwater life, watching the marine life—from powder blue surgeonfish to blacktip reef sharks—swim as they’re lulled to sleep. From $9,999." - Nora Zelevansky
