Mahindra Holidays & Resorts India Ltd (MHRIL), one of India’s leading leisure hospitality companies, has announced the signing of a new resort in Dapoli near the picturesque Murud Beach, marking a significant step in strengthening its footprint along Maharashtra’s western coastline.
The upcoming property will operate under the Club Mahindra brand and forms part of the company’s ambitious FY26–FY30 roadmap, which targets over 10,000 keys under Club Mahindra and an overall portfolio scale of 12,000 keys. Through a calibrated mix of new signings, greenfield developments, and management contracts across high-demand tourist corridors, MHRIL is steadily advancing towards its goal of becoming India’s number one leisure hospitality player.
Strategically located in Dapoli, a fast-emerging coastal destination known for its scenic beaches and strong drive-to demand from key urban centres, the resort reinforces the company’s focus on high-growth markets. The project marks the first in a series of planned developments along India’s western coast.
Spread across 13 acres, the upcoming Club Mahindra Dapoli Resort will feature 110 keys, to be launched in phases. The first phase, comprising 52 keys, is scheduled to open in Q1 FY27, with the remaining inventory expected to become operational in Q2 FY27.
Mahindra Holidays & Resorts India MD & CEO Manoj Bhat said the addition strengthens the company’s western coast circuit and reflects its commitment to adding high-quality inventory in high-demand destinations for India’s growing base of holidaying families. He emphasised that the company aims to expand its network thoughtfully and with discipline while building the most trusted leisure hospitality brand in the country.
Designed as a contemporary coastal retreat, the resort will offer immersive, experience-led stays tailored to families. Planned amenities include a sea-facing all-day dining restaurant, an open-air café, a swimming pool and spa, a fully equipped fitness centre, and a dedicated Happy Hub for children’s recreation.
Positioning itself as a destination for celebrations and large gatherings, the property will also feature a 500-pax indoor banquet hall and an expansive outdoor lawn capable of hosting 800 to 1,000 guests, making it an attractive venue for weddings, corporate events, and large-format social occasions.
