The Ultimate Hotel....

Are you willing to shell out $15,000 USD for a one week stay?

They even have a propagation facility.

It has my vote for a future MACNA

wow that is one awesome hotel....I missed the prop facility? Technically it is $30,000 for a one week stay cuz it is per person based on 2 people per room. I wish I was rich.

That was mentioned a few months ago in the Landrover mag "One Life;" you should see some of the other paradise/adventure destinations mentioned also.

That looks like a really nice hotel, I just wonder how much damage to the reef the construction of it will cause.

Probably less damage than the land based hotels. They dredge up the reefs and use the rock to build up the land and build roads with it. Either way its called progress, in america we remove trees to build things its just part of life.
