Notch this up to Swedes and another ridiculously cool, innovative design.
This latest effort can be
found off an African island and straightaway is placed high on that
list of 'amazing hotels I wish i could get to' many travelers have.
Just off the coast of Tanzania, The Manta Resort on Pemba Island has added a beautiful, other-worldly underwater bedroom to their original 16-room offering.

| The island has a population of 300,000 and is the world's largest producer of cloves, mangoes, coconuts and other fruits. |
The new 'digs' opened for business this month, designed by Swedish company Genberg Underwater Hotels.

| Underwater room. |
They are the brains behind the The Utter Inn, an underwater room in the middle of a Swedish lake which was also one of our 15 unusual places to spend the night
Lying approximately 250
meters offshore, the latest underwater structure is a three-story
affair, with a rooftop deck, a bathroom and a lounge area at sea level
and finally the bedroom downstairs, with the fish.
At night, spotlights
under the windows attract and illuminate squid and octopus -- a more
reclusive crowd than the daytime sea life.
The resort is popular with divers owing to the coral reef around the island.
