A boutique wellness resort under construction in Himachal Pradesh is looking for an investment partner. The resort will offer 3- to 7-day detox and wellness retreat packages, and is being built in a traditional architectural style.

Project Status
Construction is about 80% complete. The property has a total built-up area of around 20,000 sq ft, with five rooms: two duplex rooms and three standard rooms. It sits on road-accessible land with a clear title.

Investment Required
The founder is seeking ₹2.8 crore for a 50% stake, structured as a joint venture with 50% profit sharing.

Use of Funds
The investment will go toward the interiors, an infinity swimming pool and a spa. It will also cover completing the project, the launch and initial operations.

Role of the Founder
The founder handles all execution, including site development, permissions under Section 118 of the Himachal Pradesh land laws, construction and daily operations. The investor would not need to be involved in day-to-day management.

Bookings and Marketing
The founder has a background in digital marketing and an established social media following. The resort plans to rely mainly on direct bookings rather than online travel agencies, which typically charge 15–20% commission.

Projected Returns
The resort is not yet operational, so the figures below are projections:
- EBITDA margins of 35–45% from bundled retreat packages
- Full payback of the investment within 3.5 to 4 years of launch

The founder has extensive experience in digital marketing, including paid advertising on Google and Meta and automated customer acquisition funnels. This background will be used to drive direct bookings while keeping customer acquisition costs low. The founder also has a strong local presence in the region, with hands-on experience in setting up leisure properties, managing sites and handling local regulatory requirements.

Clientele type

The resort plans to serve three main customer groups. The first is high-income domestic travellers, such as working professionals, couples and wellness-focused guests from Delhi-NCR, Punjab, Chandigarh and other major cities looking for weekend breaks or wellness stays. The second is international tourists seeking a quiet Himalayan retreat away from busy tourist areas. The third is small corporate and executive groups that may book the entire property for wellness-focused offsites.
