Seahorse villa
A seahorse villa (also sometimes known as a floating seahorse villa) is a type of a patented dwelling enclosure that is half-submerged in water, usually a clear-water, coastal part of a sea. In a typical seahorse villa, the part which is submerged underwater is usually the master bedroom and the one that is above the water is the drawing room and kitchen and water closet. It was first designed by Dubai-based real estate developer firm Kleindienst. A seahorse villa is named after the rare sea creature and is aimed at attracting them both for decorative and preservation purposes.[1][2]
Seahorse villas are commercially a part of the Heart of Europe, a hotel development project, which aims at protecting The World islands, by providing a major development that jumpstarts building on its other sandy islands.[3][4]
