The Poseidon Undersea Hotel by Josh Spear
Poseidon. Rooms will be submerged 50 feet under the sea off Eleuthera Island in the Bahamas. $1500 a night gets you a room at the bottom of the ocean, each room will be equipped with spotlights and control to release fish food to keep things entertaining. The Poseidon will be accessible by long escalators to the ocean floor--Jacques Cousteau would be proud.
