Structure: the water house is fixed on the water surface by steel bars or round wooden columns that go straight into the seabed. Then the wooden floor is paved, and the house is mainly made of brick wood or pure wood frame. The material for building the roof is mainly palm leaves that can be seen everywhere in Maldives. The interior decoration of "Water House" is generally made of wood. Toilets are designed with intelligence, environmental protection, energy saving and humanization, and garbage and wastewater have special recycling equipment to ensure that the "water house" does not discharge any dirt into the sea. In order to save water, some "water house" toilets are equipped with water-saving devices and toilets, which can automatically collect bath water and hand washing water, and achieve the purpose of recycling by adding water-saving special agents.
As a characteristic building of Maldives seaside, every holiday island in Madai basically has a water house. In fact, the "water house" was originally just the residence of the island residents. With the development of tourism, the current occupants of water houses in resorts are mainly tourists from all over the world.
