Mumbai : Mahindra Holidays & Resorts India Limited (MHRIL), India’s leading leisure hospitality company, has signed a new resort in Dapoli, near the scenic Murud Beach, further strengthening its presence along Maharashtra’s coastline.

This addition forms part of the company’s FY26–FY30 roadmap, which targets over 10,000 keys under Club Mahindra and an overall portfolio scale of 12,000 keys. Through a combination of new signings, greenfield developments, and management contracts across high-demand tourist corridors, the company is progressing toward its ambition of becoming India’s #1 leisure hospitality player.

Dapoli strengthens MHRIL’s presence in high-growth coastal markets with strong drive-to demand and marks the first of several planned developments along India’s western coast.

Spread across 13 acres, the upcoming Club Mahindra Dapoli Resort will feature 110 keys, launched in phases. The first phase, comprising 52 keys, is slated for launch in Q1 FY27, with the remaining inventory opening in Q2 FY27.

We want to deepen our footprint thoughtfully, expand our resort network with discipline, and continue building the most trusted leisure hospitality brand in the country.”

Designed as a contemporary coastal retreat, the resort will cater to families seeking immersive, experience-led stays. Planned amenities include a sea-facing all-day dining restaurant, an open-air café, swimming pool and spa, a fully equipped fitness centre, and a dedicated Happy Hub for children’s recreation. The property will also feature a 500-pax indoor banquet hall and an expansive outdoor lawn accommodating 800–1,000 guests, positioning it as a compelling venue for destination celebrations and large-format gatherings.
