Club Mahindra, the flagship brand of Mahindra Holidays & Resorts India Limited, has announced an initiative with the transformation of its Acacia Palms resort in Goa into an all-women-run property under its portfolio. Acacia Palms becomes first resort of its kind across the Club Mahindra Portfolio.
From resort operations to the guest services, every aspect of the resort is said to be managed by a team of women. Many of these employees come from diverse hospitality backgrounds, with several of them stepping into roles for the first time in areas such as security, engineering, general technicians, horticulture, food production and kitchen stewarding. Club Mahindra is partnering with local women entrepreneurs and artisans to integrate their skills and products into the resort offerings, promoting community upliftment and sustainable development.
Speaking about the transition, Manoj Bhat, Managing Director & Chief Executive Officer, Mahindra Holidays & Resorts India Limited, stated, “We are thrilled to announce that our Acacia Palms Resort in Goa is now an all-women-staff property and is a true reflection of our steadfast commitment to gender diversity, inclusion, and women empowerment.”
Tanvi Choksi, Chief Human Resources Officer, Mahindra Holidays & Resorts India Limited, added, “By building an ecosystem where women can thrive, grow, and lead across functions—including roles that have traditionally been male-dominated like engineering, security, and kitchen stewarding—we are not only delivering a distinctive guest experience but also reshaping the future of hospitality. The all-women-led transformation at Club Mahindra Acacia Palms is a bold step forward in breaking stereotypes, unlocking potential, and inspiring industry-wide change.”
