Resorts World Sentosa in Singapore offers 11 Ocean Suites built as townhouses on two levels. Divided into land on the upper, living area and sea, in the underwater sleeping chambers, the suites offer the best of both worlds. Your personal butler will cater to you as you take in the view of the world's largest aquarium. A stay in the suites runs about $1,200 per night.
Manta Resort: Located off Pemba Island on the Zanzibar archipelago, the Manta Resort is the definition of tropical luxury. The floating hotel offers breathtaking views of the Indian Ocean and African coastline from above and a unique perspective on what lies below in its sunken bedrooms. With each room placed about 13 feet below sea level, relaxing in the ocean has never been so easy. Rooms run from $1,500 per night.
Jules' Undersea Lodge is actually the world's oldest underwater hotel. This former research center is perfect for intrepid travelers who won't mind having to scuba dive 21 feet down into the main foyer. Once inside, the cozy rooms are perfect for couples and you can even order in a chef, who will scuba down to cook for you. A stay here will cost from $675 a night
InterContinental Shanghai Wonderland, China

Upper-level rooms are afforded balcony views of the surrounding quarry and waterfalls. The hotel also has two submerged floors with "Premier Underwater View" suites, plus a restaurant and swimming pool—yes, an underwater swimming pool.

Lover's Deep Submarine, St. Lucia

Atlantis, The Palm, Dubai
The floor-to-ceiling windows in the underwater rooms at Atlantis, the Palmlook into the resort aquarium's Ambassador Lagoon, filled with 65,000 sea creatures. Choose between two suites—aptly named "Neptune" and "Poseidon"—which both include a 30-minute personal training session, free airport transfers, and 24/7 in-room dining.
Price per night: $8,200
How to get to the hotels from land:
Some of the hotels transport guests to their accommodations via an elevator at the end of a pier. The pressure inside the resort is the same as the atmospheric pressure on land, so those who have yet to experience deep-sea habitats will be fine.
We hope to see this kind of hotels in Nigeria or in Africa.
Plan to give yourself and your family a nice treat.
