The resort's village-styled architecture draws inspiration from the region's Indo-Portuguese heritage
The new ITC Grand Goa, part of Marriott’s Luxury Collection, has opened in Arossim Beach in Cansaulim, India. The 252-room resort includes a spa showcasing time-honoured Indian wellness principles through a curated menu of treatments and services.
The indigenous 36,000sq ft (3,344sq m) spa – Kaya Kalp, The Royal Spa – features 16 spa suites and signature treatments that infuse traditional Indian and international therapies.
Nestled amid the lush beachfront gardens, the spa offers ayurvedic treatments, hair and scalp treatments, massage lessons and therapy baths alongside body scrubs, wraps, massages and facials. It includes separate male and female lounges as well as a steam room.
"The opening of ITC Grand Goa marks a significant milestone in The Luxury Collection's long-standing relationship with ITC, as our thirteenth property in India and our first beach resort in South Asia," said Anthony Ingham, global brand leader, The Luxury Collection. "Best known for its alluring beaches, Goa offers a diverse blend of Indian and Portuguese culture, architecture, and cuisine and we are thrilled to unlock this unique destination for global explorers, as only The Luxury Collection can."
Underscoring ITC Hotels' ethos of 'Responsible Luxury', ITC Grand Goa aims to showcase the culture and ethos of the destination through bespoke service, indigenous cuisine and partnerships with local artisans and communities.
The resort's village-styled architecture draws inspiration from the region's Indo-Portuguese heritage. The guestrooms and suites feature private outdoor spaces with balconies or patios providing views of the Arabian Sea, and the resort is filled with lush gardens, lagoons and a multi-level swimming pool.
“This resort embodies our commitment to showcase the diversity of India through unique and enriching experiences that bring to life both the culture and ethos of the destination,” said Dipak Haksar, CEO of ITC Hotels & WelcomHotels.
