Hydropolis
Hydropolis was meant to be the world’s first underwater luxury resort, bringing ‘new meaning to the ocean-view room.’ Planned to be situated 66 feet below the surface of the Gulf, Hydropolis was supposed to feature 220 guest suites.

Constructed using reinforced concrete and steel, plexiglas walls and dome ceilings were going to offer the intrepid guest the nautical night’s sleep of a lifetime. It was scheduled to open in 2009, but unfortunately the bubble burst. The web site for the project is still under construction, which is still a little more than can be said for the hotel.
