Minor Hotels has announced the signing of Anantara Jadcherla Hyderabad Resort, a 37-acre waterfront development in southern India’s Telangana state
Scheduled to open in 2029, the resort is Ashya Group’s first hospitality project.
Located outside of Hyderabad, the resort site sits a 60-minute drive from Hyderabad’s Rajiv Gandhi International Airport (approximately 71 km) and a one-and-a-half-hour drive from the Hyderabad city centre (approximately 90 km), placing it within easy reach of one of India’s fastest-growing metropolitan markets while remaining immersed in an undisturbed, nature-led setting.
Anantara Jadcherla Hyderabad Resort will comprise 185 keys, with rooms starting at 48 sqm, and will include 47 pool villas ranging from 90 to 280 sqm. A further 50 branded residences are set to be developed adjacent to the resort, extending Anantara’s brand of luxury hospitality to owners seeking a permanent address on the reservoir.
The resort’s design draws on the architectural legacy of the Kakatiya Dynasty, with stone construction and geometric patterning carried throughout the public spaces and villas, while reinterpreting the region’s design heritage for contemporary luxury travel.
Anantara Jadcherla Hyderabad Resort will feature an all-day dining venue, two speciality restaurants, a wellness café, a lobby lounge and a poolside bar. Facilities will include a spa, fitness centre, outdoor pool and kids’ club. The resort will also have a ballroom, breakout rooms and an event lawn for meetings and events.
Shashider Reddy Munugala, Founder and Chairman of Ashya Group, commented, “Anantara Jadcherla Hyderabad Resort reflects our belief that hospitality should be led by nature and its surroundings. Every element of this development, from the stone to the setting on the banks of a reservoir, is designed to draw guests closer to the culture and landscape of Telangana. We look forward to bringing this project to life with Minor Hotels, leveraging their proven record in building nature-based destinations that respect the places they inhabit.”
William E Heinecke, Chairman & Founder of Minor International, the parent company of Minor Hotels, added, “Anantara Jadcherla Hyderabad Resort reflects what the Anantara brand does best: bringing guests closer to the authentic character of a destination. The project’s waterfront setting and distinctive design vision give us the ability to build that immersion properly. Partnering with Ashya Group on this project marks a significant step in strengthening our presence across Southern India.”
