Poseidon Undersea Resort in Fiji Under Construction
In 2007, Poseidon Undersea Resorts announced plans for the first underwater five-star resort to be built off the coast of Fiji. The resort was scheduled to open in 2009, yet it still has not made its debut. Nonetheless, more than 150,000 have already signed up for reservations.
The main attraction of the resort is the ability to stay in a suite that offers plenty of glass and spectacular underwater views. It is a perfect option for scuba divers and other marine enthusiasts. The resort will offer suites above ground as well.
As a five-star luxury hotel, the property will include all the things you’d expect like a fitness center, wellness spa, fine dining, and luxury amenities in each room. Those choosing to stay on land will have access to public spaces underwater and vice versa. When the Poseidon Undersea Resort does finally open, it will be a truly unique experience for anyone who loves the sea.
If you are interested in joining the waiting list, feel free to sign up on the resort website. There you will also learn about the hotel’s features and construction. As a side note, the company is already scouting out a location for a second resort.
Kapalua Golf, The Best Golf Courses in Maui
Situated within a working pineapple plantation, Kapalua Resort is a 22,000-acre resort community nestled between the West Maui Mountains and the shores of the Pacific Ocean on the island of Maui. Renowned for its two championship golf courses, Kapalua Resort is easily accessible through daily inter-island flights.
Award Winning Golf Courses
Residents and visitors alike can take advantage of the superb facilities offered at the two Kapalua public golf courses. The newly renovated Bay Course offers one of the most dramatic holes in golf with the shot requiring a hit over the ocean. With ocean views and an outlook of the neighboring island from 16 of the 18 holes, the title of “Hawaii’s Favorite Resort Course” is well deserved.
The slightly larger Plantation Course has ocean and island views from every hole, and one of the most famous finishing holes on the PGA Tour. Both courses have received an abundance of awards and accolades, giving them the status of the best in Hawaii, as well as being rated among the best of all modern courses. Plantation Course is known as the best public course in all of Hawaii. For golf lovers this is a “can’t miss” course.
