They sleep with the fishes.
Adventurous lovebirds with money to spare are lining up to shell $9,999 or more per night to book the world’s priciest underwater hotel room — just one of many spectacular features at the romantic and exclusive Conrad Maldives Rangali Island resort attracting boldfacers like Kris Jenner and Paul McCartney.
The “first-of-its-kind” experience takes you 16 feet below sea level in the Indian Ocean to a master suite complete with luxurious bathroom where you can bathe and brush your teeth and sit on the john in full view of an array of marine life — including reef sharks, which are generally not considered to be dangerous (phew).
The sumptuous subaqueous surrounds are just part of a luxury, multi-level villa called The Muraka, the toughest booking at the elite hideaway in the far flung nation known for its luxury hideouts.
Residents descend a spiral staircase or utilize their own, private elevator to access the suite, which sits under a 180-degree curved acrylic dome. The bathroom and a walk-in closet feature floor-to-ceiling windows. The room includes a “theater’ style seating area looking out to the sea.
The villa boasts its own staff of highly-trained butlers whose only task is to cater to the guest’s needs.
A pair of travel YouTubers known as Kara and Nate recently went viral after promoting their stay at The Muraka, snagging nearly 2 million views on a video entitled, “We Slept in The World’s Most Expensive Underwater Hotel.”
Saying they used “miles and points” for a longer stay in a traditional overwater room, the peripatetic pair somehow managed to snag one night in the astronomically-priced villa, located down a long overwater walkway, well-removed from the rest of the already remote resort.
The 25-minute video gives a step-by-step tour of the lavish hideout, with the couple pronouncing the reef-facing toilet “the best seat in the house.”
Munching on complimentary tropical fruits in the living room, Kara tells the camera: “I think this is where we need to retire — I don’t know how it gets better than this. We’ve peaked.”
“Kara always says that everything is the best ever, but I am turning the camera around this time to say that she is not exaggerating,” an enthusiastic Nate chimed in.
“This is, by far, 110%, the best place we’ve ever stayed,” he said.
