This really exists! At the Citta del Mare hotel in Sicily, you can slide right into the Mediterranean Sea. Wouldn't you love to be splashing down there right now?(Via Sunsurfer)

ReplyDeleteYes!! This looks amazing!!
ReplyDeleteThat looks so incredible!
ReplyDeleteThat's just incredible!
ReplyDeleteThis is awesome!!! It's over 100 degrees here today and I'm dying for a pool!
ReplyDeleteThat looks amazing! Everyone who commented about the hike on the way back up cracked me up, I wouldn't have thought of it until I found myself at the bottom looking up...

ReplyDeleteI am leaving for mediterranian in about 2 weeks and this post makes me want to freak out I am so excited. It is totally worth a year of scrimping and saving. totally.

well, this is rather a travel night mare. I don't like it when they put concrete and artificial buildings onto a beautiful coastline. further, I don't see tourists connect to nature this way... please, this has to stop!
ReplyDeleteAdding this to my list of places to go! :)
ReplyDeleteWow. This looks AMAZING! Total travel lust!
ReplyDeleteWOWEE!! I love this!!! I wonder how you get back up again?! Going to check this out online
ReplyDeleteOMG... that looks really scary! Just to repeat some of the other comments... how DO you get back up?
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! This looks so much fun! Shame I'm such an awful swimmer! xxx
ReplyDeleteThat is too cool! I want one of those in my back yard (you know, when I have a back yard lol)
ReplyDeleteI have to go. like right now.
ReplyDeleteHow cool! I'll definitely have to bring this up to my fiance...we're still trying to decide where to book our honeymoon! :D
ReplyDeleteWANT.....TO......BE.....THERE......NOW!
ReplyDeleteAwesome!
ReplyDeleteIt looks incredibly fun! I'm immediately bookmarking this hotel!
ReplyDeleteI think you just made my holiday plans for me, great find, see you there!
ReplyDeletelooks like so much fun!
ReplyDeleteLove this! I lived in Sicily for 5 months, but never saw this!! Fun:)
ReplyDeletexo,
Angela
Where can I make reservations?? =P
ReplyDeleteMelanie's Randomness
i would love to go there... fun and romance all in one!
ReplyDeletexoxo
Pia
i think i would be scared.
ReplyDeleteuhh, yes please! that looks awesome.
ReplyDeleteThey found the perfect way to ruin a beautiful coastline, blue plastic, come on. Sicily is nice but I'd rather recommend to just jump in from a cliff. Less is more.
ReplyDeleteThat is awesome!
ReplyDeleteIt looks fantastic and also a little scary, because of the rocks.
ReplyDeleteWow! I need to be there right now! Definitely saving this for our next trip.
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a lot of fun! Wish I was there right now, putting this on my bucket list.
ReplyDeleteWHY did you have to post this?? I have been fantasizing about Italy since the warm weather hit...seriously.
ReplyDeleteJust another example of how good we are in ruin our seacoast here in italy.
ReplyDeletewww.lolaroid.blogspot.com
Wow! I wanna go now!
ReplyDeleteUm, if only I could "wish" myself there now. ; )
ReplyDeleteWow, that's fantastic...
ReplyDeleteI would like to arrive there :D
Just the idea cheered me up.
ReplyDeleteOh my! That looks amazing!
ReplyDeleteMy childhood dream realized! Water slides that pour you into the ocean.
ReplyDeleteSicily has been on my dream vacay list for a while now, but it just moved up a spot!
Stay cool...
Oh my goodness. This is the coolest idea ever! I've never been to Sicily - it looks pretty amazing!!

ReplyDeletethis is near the town where I grew up and it's really funny as it seems :)
ReplyDeleteis 10km from my home!
ReplyDeleteI want to slide now!
ReplyDeleteIt can't have effect in fact, that is exactly what I suppose.
ReplyDeleteWow, I live in Sicily and must go here! My blog--http://makingroomwithus.blogspot.com--is about my life in Sicily with my husband and my baby girl.
ReplyDeleteI found a lot of helpful info here!
ReplyDeleteSeen this picture I feel like I wanna trip to meet this place. That slide looks very fun.
ReplyDeleteThat looks like so much fun!!

For the people who are complaining, give it a rest! It's amazing! This place has been there for years. It's not as if they did this to the entire coast of the island! I am fortunate enough to have lived there AND visited citta del mare! It's as awesome as you imagine!
ReplyDeleteI've been there! When I was like 5 I remember that there is a cave to get back to the stairs after you've been in the ocean, that wasso fun!
ReplyDeleteI hope I’m still alive to see an expedition set off for Mars.

Oh WOW!! No way.. this hotel in Sicily is way so cool!! I gotta book an accommodation in this hotel.
ReplyDeleteTo get back up. To the right side of the last slide down to the ocean. There are a set of steps go go back up to the first pool closest to the ocean. There you have to walk to the top to ride again. Ps. It's looks great but isn't so good if you aren't a sea person.
