“I don’t believe in 2012.” Robert Vicino doesn’t buy into those end time predictions based on misinterpretations of the Mayan calendar. Or, what about those dubious predictions about the world ending in 2012? Or an electromagnetic pulse attack that knocks out electrical grids across the U.S. “This is a mega-catastrophe facility to survive the actual event or its aftermath.” “If your house burned down because of wildfires, you’ll have to find other accommodations,” says Vicino. So if your neighborhood is torched in a big wildfire, or your apartment tumbles down in an 8.1 magnitude earthquake, chances are you won’t be able to bunk in your $50,000 room down in the Vivos shelter. Nor is it temporary housing,” says Vicino. It’s not a resort, it’s not a stopover on the way to Vegas. But here’s the catch the owners can only live there in the event of a massive worldwide or regional catastrophe.

When construction is complete customers pay the full amount, or they lose their reservations and get their deposits back. But Vicino is already taking 10 percent deposits on single spaces. “Dogs and cats.” That money buys you a single place to sleep in a four-bunk suite the size of a first class train compartment, and access to those shared living spaces. Individual spaces will sell for $50,000 per person, $25,000 for kids under the age of 16. We have a CO2 scrubber, we have food storage for a year, medicine, clothing.” There could be a nuclear blast, we could be under 500 feet of water where we’re sitting right now and we will survive. “This facility is going to accommodate 132 people, for one year of autonomous underground survival,” says Vicino, sitting at a small table in one of the bunker’s cavernous main rooms. This 10,000-square-foot space is the first in what developer and mastermind Robert Vicino hopes will be a worldwide network of multimillion dollar shelters with semi-private suites, communal living areas and even a gym. Dan Hotes’ primary job is to locate and investigate potential Terra Vivos bunker locations like this one across the country. It’s one of about half a dozen out-of-commission telecommunications bunkers scattered in strategic locations across the United States. The immaculate, cement-lined telecommunications bunker was built during the Cold War. Hotes leads me down a long stairwell and into the belly of what is actually an old AT&T routing station. “So this is just like the upper housing area, drop down 30 feet into the heart of the facility,” says Hotes as we enter the bunker through a nondescript, though fenced in, outbuilding. It turns out the bunker is just a quick jog from the gas station. I meet my guide, Dan Hotes, an affable 40-something realtor from the Seattle area. I got mine, along with a map and directions to rendezvous with a company representative at a remote Mojave Desert gas station. You’re unlikely to find the secret bunker without an invitation from the Terra Vivos Underground Survival Network.
Investors believe it’s their best hope in the event of natural disaster, terrorist attack or worse. He’s building a string of luxury disaster shelters. Deep in California’s Mojave Desert, about halfway between Barstow and Las Vegas, a real estate entrepreneur is counting on a big catastrophe.
