Rooted in a strong philosophy of sustainable hospitality and responsible tourism, Machan Resorts is now setting its sights on reviving forgotten heritage structures—infusing them with new life while preserving their historical and architectural essence. This thoughtful initiative is designed to not only protect these cultural treasures but also offer travelers immersive experiences that honor India’s rich legacy, craftsmanship, and storytelling traditions.

“Our goal is to create one-of-a-kind destinations where the elegance of history harmoniously coexists with the comforts of modern living,” said Rakshit Sharma, COO at Machan Resorts LLP during the announcement. “This strategic expansion was inspired by the successful integration of Legacy Mandawa by The Machan into our portfolio. Drawing from the royal legacy of Rajasthan, the property incorporates design elements from Mandawa’s iconic havelis and frescoes, offering guests an unparalleled heritage experience blended with modern luxury. In light of the success of this project, we are also considering other culturally significant areas in India along with Rajasthan, such as Gujarat, Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh, for similar endeavors. Each new property will be meticulously managed to preserve its unique character, while uplifting local communities, promoting indigenous art forms, and supporting India’s vibrant heritage."

This move marks a pivotal chapter for Machan Resorts as it evolves into a true custodian of India’s living history—transforming heritage destinations into sustainable luxury escapes for conscious, culturally curious travelers.
