Planet Hotels & Resorts has reported a strong year of growth, underpinned by rising travel demand, strategic market focus, and a continued emphasis on delivering distinctive guest experiences
The group recorded encouraging performance indicators for 2025, reflecting a steady upward trajectory across its portfolio. Focusing on its key markets of Thane and Goa for a like-to-like comparison, the brand achieved an overall revenue growth of approximately 11%, alongside a 9% increase in occupancy, highlighting its strong market positioning and sustained demand across both business and leisure segments. Revenue Per Available Room (RevPAR) also witnessed a notable uptick, driven by improved occupancy and optimised revenue strategies.
This growth aligns with broader industry trends, where the resurgence of domestic tourism, a steady revival in corporate travel, and an increasing inclination towards experiential and destination-led stays continue to reshape demand patterns. Today’s traveller is seeking more than just accommodation there is a clear shift towards immersive, design-led environments that offer both comfort and a sense of place.
Planet Hotels & Resorts has strategically capitalised on these evolving preferences through its presence in high-demand destinations such as Goa, Thane, Powai, and Manali. In particular, Vine Hills Resort & Spa Manali continues to attract discerning travellers with its elevated mountain experiences, panoramic Himalayan views, and a growing preference for serene, nature-led luxury escapes—further strengthening the brand’s leisure portfolio.
Building on this momentum, the group is also advancing its expansion pipeline with upcoming projects across Goa, Haridwar, and [Lucknow], reinforcing its commitment to tapping into both high-growth leisure destinations and emerging urban markets.
Despite industry-wide challenges including rising operational costs, intensified competition, and rapidly evolving guest expectations, the group has maintained its growth momentum through a sharp focus on revenue performance, operational efficiency, and a thoughtfully curated expansion strategy.
Commenting on the growth, Atul Neharkar, AVP Sales, Planet Hotels & Resorts, said, “We are encouraged by the strong growth momentum witnessed over the past year, particularly across our key markets of Thane and Goa. This performance reflects not only robust demand but also our focused approach towards driving revenue and maximising asset performance.
