Is it a House ?, or a Yatch ?

Developed and designed by the Kleindienst Group in Dubai, the Floating Seahorses will offer investors floor to ceiling windows, gloriously uninterrupted sea views, a fully fitted kitchen and dining area, open-plan living area and sun deck, according to OPP Today. The master bedroom and bathroom are located on the lower level and will enjoy unparalleled underwater views of an artificial coral reef designed to be a safe haven for the endangered seahorse species to live and breed.

The Floating Seahorses’ upper deck offers the chance for alfresco dining and relaxation in the sun. According to Designboom, it contains an informal bed, minibar, kitchenette and glass-bottomed Jacuzzi.

The project was launched at the Dubai International Boat Show and has also featured recently at the Gulf Property Show at the Bahrain International Exhibition and Convention Centre where attendees could view a 3D model of the development. OPP Today notes that interested investors hail regionally from UAE, Saudi Arabia and Qatar but also further afield from the Maldives, Seychelles, Caribbean, Sweden, Portugal and Norway.

“Since launching The Floating Seahorse we have been inundated with local, regional and international enquiries. We are excited to not just offer people a once in a lifetime investment opportunity in Dubai but on a global scale. The Floating Seahorse is not restricted to Dubai waters and can be designed and fabricated in Dubai for other resorts and destinations worldwide,” said Josef Kleindienst, CEO of Kleindienst Group.
