Being a travel specialist for dream beach destinations, I occasionally get an email from a client with a gorgeous postcard quality image (of a beach or resort) followed by the question of “where is this place?” It’s a sort of Where’s Waldo for the bucket list.
Well, this picture has been in circulation online as one of the coolest resorts out there:
Problem is that this resort (the Poseidon Undersea Resort in Fiji) which was to cost $30,000 per couple for a 6 night all-inclusive stay (4 nights in a beach bure and 2 nights underwater in this suite in the image) NEVER MATERIALIZED! Yes, that’s right. The resort never opened. In fact, this picture is a drawing and not an actual underwater suite.
It sounds like it was more of a sham rather than delayed construction efforts because the actual island location was kept a secret (how handy), and no one in Fiji knows of construction going on.
Bummer, right? So for now at least, you’ll have to -settle- for overwater accommodations instead of underwater accommodations! And this is officially one resort you can scratch off that bucket list.
