			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Arena Hotel is located in Amsterdam, in the Netherlands. The hotel&#8217;s historical building used to be a church that later transformed into an orphanage, in a residence for third age citizens and later on into a hostel.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Yunak Evleri Hotel is located in the region of Cappadocia, in Central Anatolia in Turkey. The hotel is located between the mountains and has the fairy chimneys that are typical in this region.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Casa Caracol Hotel is located in Isla Mujeres, an island near Cancun, Mexico. The hotel&#8217;s two buildings are shaped like large snail conchs.</p>
<p><strong>Houses.</strong></p>
<p>The hotel has two buildings shaped like a sea snail&#8217;s shell which are decorated following a maritime theme. Another, more traditional building, is located on the hotel&#8217;s territory and is the owner&#8217;s house. Each shell shaped building can be rented for long stays.</p>
<p>Each room has a kingsize bed with a head board shaped like a giant shell, and a bathroom. All rooms are decorated in white. The bathroom have shell shaped bathtubs with showers that create fountains inside the shell.</p>
<p>The small shell has a master bedroom with a kingsize bed and a bathroom with a shell shaped shower. The large shell has two floors. There is a bathroom, a dining room and a kitchen on the first floor, and a master bedroom with a kingsize bed on the second floor, with a large bathroom with a shell shaped bathtub and a balcony.</p>
<p>The houses can be rented during most months, except when the Ocampo family, the owners of the hotel, spend their holidays there. The hotel is adapted for people with mobility issues. Price depends on the season, and usually starts from 1000€ per week.</p>
<p><strong>Events.</strong></p>
<p>The hotel can organize celebrations and events. A large catamaran that sails near the coast can be rented for large events and private dinners.</p>
<p>The hotel has a giant pool with borders shaped like a wave and covered in sea shells. One of the two houses has a smaller private pool.</p>
<p>On the hotel&#8217;s territory there is a barbecue area and a patio with chairs and tables where guests can enjoy dinners al fresco. Guests can take a walk around the hotel&#8217;s gardens, where no smoking is allowed.</p>
<p><strong>Owners.</strong></p>
<p>This architectural hotel is located in the South of the island. Two decades ago the architect Eduardo Ocampo built the first shell house for him and his wife, and later on a second house for his brother. His brother, Octavio Ocampo, is a painter who has created art pieces with many optical illusions.</p>
<p><strong>Shell shape.<br />
</strong></p>
<p>When the architect was about to build the second house, he found a sea shell on the beach and decided to build a house in that shape. The house has an irregular rounded shape. There is a spiral staircase inside the house. The doors and windows have a similar, shell shaped design.</p>
<p>Years later he decided to build another shell house with a more circular shape. This smaller one floor house has a master bedroom and a bathroom.</p>
<p><strong>Activities.</strong></p>
<p>Guests who stay at this hotel will be able to play golf, ride on bicycles and visit the island&#8217;s botanical gardens and museums. There are several beach activities ranging from fishing and snorkelling to sailing.</p>
<p><strong>Location.</strong></p>
<p>The hotel is located on Isla Mujeres, an island around 20 minutes away from Cancun. Guests can relax in the ocean, located steps away from the hotel. A short distance away guests will find several beaches and cliffs with views towards the ocean. Boats can be rented for those who want to fish and sail, and guests can rent gold carts to explore the island.</p>
