Opened in November 2018, The Muraka is th underwater villa. Located 16 ft below sea level, the residence at Conrad Maldives Rangali Island is a dream come true for marine enthusiasts and mermaid wannabes. The two-story structure has one floor above the sea and one floor below, and cost $15m to build.
