Marriott has expanded its portfolio of St. Regis
Hotels and Resorts with the opening of The
St. Regis Goa Resort.
The resort is located between the Sal River and
Arabian Sea near India’s south-western coastal city of Goa, famous
for its palm-fringed tropical beaches, historic Portuguese-era
architecture, enticing seafood and distinctive culture.
“We are delighted to celebrate the opening of our
second St. Regis property in this enchanted haven in India. St.
Regis provides exquisite resort experiences for our global
luminaries, and Goa is a special destination where guests will
find themselves surrounded by unspoilt nature and infinite sandy
beaches,” said George Fleck, Vice President and Global Brand
Leader, St. Regis Hotels & Resorts. “The St. Regis Goa Resort
offers a welcome respite, a place where our guests can renew,
reconnect and appreciate what is truly important.”
Located approximately 60 minutes’ drive from Goa
International Airport, The St. Regis Goa Resort is nestled in 49
acres of lush greenery fringing the pristine Mobor Beach on the
shores of the Arabian Sea.
The area between the Sal River and the
ocean is a paradise for nature lovers, a sanctuary of freshwater
lagoons and over 30,000 trees, where the intimate resort blends
seamlessly into its surroundings with its confluence of Portuguese
and traditional Indian architecture.
The resort features 206
guestrooms including 46 suites offering private terraces
overlooking the tranquil lagoons or the golf course. The even more
exclusive Manor houses 20
suites and villas with plunge pools, private access to the beach,
and all-day indulgent dining.
Facilities at the property include four dining venues and
two bars, more than 32,000 square feet of dedicated event space, a swimming pool
surrounded by foliage, a gym, children’s club, a St. Regis
Spa with eight private rooms, and a scenic 12-hole
golf course.
“Goa has something for everyone, whether they are
interested in historic architecture, uninterrupted expanses of
golden beaches, unique fusion cuisines or exhilarating outdoor
activities,” said Satish Kumar, General Manager, The St. Regis Goa
Resort. “The Goan people are warm, welcoming and generous, and the
notion of ‘Susegad’ is quintessential to their way of life,
encouraging one to slow down and find clarity amidst the exotic
spirit of the landscapes. Whether indulging, celebrating, or
exploring, The St. Regis Goa Resort is a soulful sanctuary where
senses are delighted, moments are treasured, and memories are
made.”
