This Resort Is Offering You The Chance To Sleep Under The Stars And Over The Ocean For $400 A Night On A Net

ADVERTISEMENT

Imagine slowly drifting off to sleep while all you hear is the crashing ocean waves and wind. The most fun part of all is that the water is directly underneath you as you’re laying on a specifically designed net suspended directly above it. It may all sound like a distant dream, but it is possible for merely $400 a night.

More info: Park Hotel Group | Instagram

Influencers from all over the world are loving this resort

If you’ve been noticing similar photos appearing on your feed lately, blame the Grand Park Kodhipparu in the Maldives. Influencers are particularly fond of the location as it offers some really amazing Instagram-worthy shots. The resort houses 120 villas, each of which are equipped with a private pool and a net which you can see in the photo above. Instagram celebrities and famous people online seem to really enjoy napping, eating, or just plain posing on the aforementioned net.

I'm so over all these "influencers", with their quasi artistic photographs and oh-you-caught-me-off-guard-but-not-really expressions. Get a f*****g job. You don't need to be in the picture, and neither does your a*s.

Dear Bored Panda, I really love you art content, but articles like these make me cringe and want to hurl these so called influencers into the sea. I really hope a seagull poops on them... Please stop giving these people a platform. We want real travel photography not some vapid model staring wistfully into the distance.

Except they won't want to pay the $400, they'd ask for it for free in exchange for "exposure" then throw a hissy fit when they can't get what they want for free. Influencers need to go f**k themselves and get a real job.

I have no doubt in my mind, that when future historians look back, and attempt to pinpoint the exact moment that set in motion the events that would ultimately lead to civilizations downfall, they will find it was when "social media influencer" became a viable career path.
