India’s largest hospitality group, Indian Hotels Company Limited (IHCL), has announced the signing of a new property in Anjuna, Goa. The upcoming greenfield project will operate under the Vivanta brand, continuing IHCL’s strategic expansion across India’s popular leisure destinations.
The upcoming hotel will be ideally situated in the bustling heart of Anjuna, a lively coastal destination in North Goa celebrated for its diverse culture, picturesque beaches, and energetic nightlife. Designed to feature 110 well-appointed rooms, Vivanta Anjuna will offer an array of contemporary amenities, including a round-the-clock dining venue, a chic bar, a refreshing swimming pool, a modern fitness center, and advanced conference facilities. Combining elements of relaxation and business convenience, the property aims to appeal to both leisure seekers and professional travelers alike.
The project represents a growing collaboration between IHCL and its development partners and highlights the group’s consistent efforts to strengthen its presence in key tourism markets. Anjuna’s rising popularity among domestic and international travelers makes it a strategic location for IHCL’s upscale Vivanta brand, which is designed to appeal to today’s cosmopolitan explorers.
