Wyndham Hotels & Resorts Brings Dolce Hotels & Resorts to India with Dual Resort Signing in Goa and Udaipur

Dual Signing Marks Dolce Brand’s India Debut

Wyndham Hotels & Resorts has signed two new upscale leisure resorts under its Dolce by Wyndham brand in Goa and Udaipur, marking the official entry of the brand into India.

The properties—Dolce by Wyndham Resort Goa and Dolce by Wyndham Resort Udaipur—will be developed in partnership with Fine Acers Group, led by Dinesh Yadav. Both resorts are expected to open in 2030 and are set to cater to India’s growing demand for premium leisure travel, destination weddings, MICE events, and corporate gatherings.


Development Partnership with Fine Acers Group

The collaboration strengthens Wyndham’s long-standing association with Fine Acers Group. The projects will follow a professionally managed hospitality model aligned with Wyndham’s global brand standards, distribution systems, and loyalty ecosystem, while leveraging Fine Acers’ local market expertise.

The dual signing reflects a shared focus on developing experience-led hospitality assets in high-demand leisure destinations.


Dolce by Wyndham Resort Goa

Located near Keri Beach, the Goa resort is planned with approximately 200 rooms and suites.

Key highlights include:

  • Multiple dining venues

  • Large event and meeting spaces

  • Wellness spa and swimming pools

  • Dedicated kids’ zone

  • Direct beach access

Goa remains one of India’s strongest leisure and wedding markets, driven by year-round tourism, strong room rates, and sustained domestic and international demand.


Dolce by Wyndham Resort Udaipur

Set amid the Aravalli hills at Kodiyat, the Udaipur property will feature around 250 rooms.

Planned facilities include:

  • Refined dining concepts

  • Expansive banquet halls and landscaped lawns

  • Dedicated meeting spaces

  • Full-service spa and health club

  • Large outdoor pool

Udaipur continues to command some of the highest average daily rates in India and remains a leading destination for luxury weddings and large-format events. The signing further expands Wyndham’s presence in the city, where it already operates five hotels, including Wyndham Grand and Wyndham Garden properties.


Market Context and Growth Outlook

India’s tourism and hospitality sector is projected to approach US$60 billion by 2028, supported by infrastructure development, rising disposable incomes, and strong domestic travel momentum.

The introduction of the Dolce brand aligns with Wyndham’s strategy to expand in upscale leisure markets shaped by weddings, meetings, and experiential travel trends.


Leadership Commentary

Rahool Macarius, Market Managing Director – Eurasia, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, stated that the signing marks a significant milestone as destination-led leisure, weddings, and meetings increasingly influence travel decisions in India.

Dinesh Yadav, Principal, Fine Acers Group, noted that the projects reinforce confidence in India’s premium leisure and destination wedding segments and reflect a commitment to developing future-ready hospitality destinations.


Strategic Direction

The dual signing underlines Wyndham’s broader plan to strengthen its upscale leisure portfolio across India’s most sought-after destinations. By combining global brand expertise with local development capabilities, the partnership aims to create premium, experience-driven resorts aligned with evolving guest expectations.
