Ramee Group signs new resort in Sasan Gir to expand leisure portfolio in India

Ramee Group of Hotels has signed a new resort project in Sasan Gir, Gujarat, in April 2026, the company said, marking an expansion of its leisure portfolio in India as it targets wildlife and nature-based tourism destinations with growing domestic and international visitor demand.

Resort signing in Sasan Gir

The company confirmed that the agreement covers the development of a resort in Sasan Gir, a region known for its proximity to Gir National Park. The property will be positioned to cater to leisure travelers visiting the area for wildlife tourism and short-stay vacations.

Officials said the signing aligns with the group’s strategy to expand in destinations with established tourism appeal. The resort will be developed under one of the company’s hospitality brands, although specific branding details were not disclosed.

Project scope and facilities

According to the company, the planned resort will include guest rooms, dining outlets and recreational facilities designed to accommodate leisure travelers. The development is expected to integrate with the natural surroundings of the Sasan Gir region.

Management stated that the property will include amenities aimed at short-duration stays, including food and beverage services and curated guest experiences. The company did not disclose the number of rooms or total investment value.

Focus on wildlife tourism segment

Ramee Group said the project reflects its focus on expanding into niche tourism segments such as wildlife and eco-tourism. Sasan Gir attracts visitors due to its location near the Gir forest, which has seen consistent tourist inflows in recent years.

Officials added that demand for nature-based travel experiences has contributed to increased hospitality development in such destinations. The company aims to position the resort to capture this demand.

Development model and partnerships

The company indicated that the project will be executed in collaboration with local development partners, following an asset-light approach. Under this model, Ramee Group will manage the property while partners handle development and investment.

Executives said agreements have been structured to align with regional development conditions and regulatory requirements. Construction timelines and opening schedules will be announced at a later stage.

Expansion strategy in India

Ramee Group has been expanding its presence across India through new signings and developments in both urban and leisure markets. The company is focusing on locations with strong tourism potential and improving infrastructure.

Officials noted that destinations like Sasan Gir are becoming increasingly important within the company’s portfolio, as domestic travel continues to drive occupancy in non-metro markets.

Current status

As of April 2026, the Sasan Gir resort project is in the initial development stage following the signing, with planning and design activities underway ahead of construction and further announcements on timelines and operational details.
