BANGKOK, 17 September 2026: Minor Hotels has announced the signing of Anantara Jadcherla Hyderabad Resort, a 37-acre waterfront development in southern India’s Telangana state.
Scheduled to open in 2029, the resort is Ashya Group’s first hospitality project.
Located outside of Hyderabad, the resort site sits a 60-minute drive from Hyderabad’s Rajiv Gandhi International Airport (approximately 71 km) and a one-and-a-half-hour drive from the Hyderabad city centre (approximately 90 km), placing it within easy reach of one of India’s fastest-growing metropolitan markets while remaining immersed in an undisturbed, nature-led setting.
Anantara Jadcherla Hyderabad Resort will comprise 185 keys, with rooms starting at 48 sqm, and will include 47 pool villas ranging from 90 to 280 sqm. An additional 50 branded residences will be developed adjacent to the resort, extending Anantara’s luxury hospitality to owners seeking a permanent address on the reservoir.
The resort will feature dining options, including an all-day dining venue, two speciality restaurants, and a wellness café, plus a lobby lounge and poolside bar.
Leisure facilities will include an Anantara Spa, a fitness centre, an outdoor pool, and a kids’ club. The resort will also cater to destination events and meetings with its ballroom, multiple breakout rooms and an event lawn for outdoor functions.
Minor International Chairman & Founder William E Heinecke noted: “Anantara Jadcherla Hyderabad Resort reflects what the Anantara brand does best — it brings guests closer to the authentic character of a destination. The project’s waterfront setting and distinctive design vision allow us to build that immersion properly. Partnering with Ashya Group on this project marks a significant step in strengthening our presence across Southern India.”
Anantara Jadcherla Hyderabad Resort is the latest addition to Minor Hotels’ expanding presence in India. The group introduced the Anantara Hotels & Resorts brand to the country in 2025 with the opening of the Anantara Jewel Bagh Jaipur Hotel. Anantara Jadcherla Hyderabad Resort joins a growing pipeline of projects in India as Minor Hotels works towards its target of 50 properties within the next decade, including Anantara Zanti Coorg Resort and Anantara Kolkata Hotel, announced in April 2026 and Avani+ Sunray Beach Visakhapatnam Resort in 2025.
