Renaissance Hotels Expands Lifestyle Portfolio with Renaissance Goa
Renaissance Hotels expands its lifestyle footprint with Renaissance Goa.
By SOH Edit Team
Renaissance Hotels, part of Marriott Bonvoy’s global portfolio of over 30 brands, has announced the launch of Renaissance Goa Hotel, strengthening its lifestyle footprint in one of India’s most enduring leisure destinations. Located in the lush Arpora valley, the 133-key hotel offers seamless access to North Goa’s iconic beaches—Baga, Anjuna, and Vagator—while providing a quieter, resort-like retreat away from the coast’s high energy.
Positioned at the crossroads of Goa’s vibrant beach culture and its slower, valley rhythms, the new property is designed for travellers seeking authentic exploration and local connection. “Goa remains central to our leisure growth strategy in India,” said Kiran Andicot, Senior Vice President, South Asia, Marriott International, highlighting the brand’s focus on neighbourhood-led experiences, contemporary design, and discovery-driven travel.

Design-Led Storytelling Meets Local Discovery
Rooted in the textures and colours of tropical Goa, Renaissance Goa blends theatrical design with a strong sense of place. Nature-inspired elements—brass orchid installations, hand-carved sandstone details, botanical mosaics, and sculptural focal points—create a visually immersive environment across public spaces and guest rooms. The hotel’s contemporary interiors are complemented by locally inspired art, bespoke furnishings, and valley-facing family rooms that balance energy with calm.
A hallmark of the Renaissance brand, the on-property Navigator program connects guests to curated local experiences—from Divar Island village immersions and Fontainhas heritage walks to Feni tastings and home-hosted Goan dinners—bringing unscripted discovery to the forefront of each stay.
Culinary, Social, and Event Experiences for Modern Travellers
Dining and social rituals anchor the hotel’s lifestyle positioning. The Bloom Kitchen offers all-day global dining with Goan influences, while Casa Limone delivers relaxed Italian flavours in a theatrical setting. Aerio, the rooftop pool bar, and the lobby-based R Lounge transition seamlessly from daytime to evening, culminating in Evenings at Renaissance, the brand’s signature social ritual celebrating local culture, music, and mixology.
Renaissance Goa also caters to destination weddings, celebrations, and corporate gatherings with nearly 8,000 square feet of flexible event space supported by modern technology. As part of Marriott Bonvoy, guests can earn and redeem loyalty points while enjoying personalised, app-enabled travel experiences—reinforcing Renaissance Goa’s role as a strategic addition to Marriott International’s growing lifestyle portfolio in India.
