Luxeglamp Eco-Resorts, pioneers of luxury glamping in India, have introduced Luxe Nova at Luxeglamp Munnar, Kerala. Nestled amidst the breathtaking Anayirangal Dam, misty tea estates, and rolling cardamom hills, Luxe Nova is designed as a one-of-a-kind romantic escape that redefines the luxury glamping experience in India.

Luxe Nova presents a full bubble glamping suite offering 360° views of the sky, forest, and mountains, all from within a climate-controlled dome. It features a plush king-size memory foam bed, pinewood flooring, and a telescope for intimate stargazing. Guests can unwind in a private seating lounge area, perfect for savoring coffee, reading, or simply soaking in panoramic views in complete privacy.

Antony Thomas, CEO and Founder of Luxeglamp, shared, "Luxeglamp started with Munnar as a luxury glamping destination, and now we are launching a new concept that will change and redefine the glamping era in India as Luxe Nova."

Blending romance, nature, and indulgence, Luxe Nova sets a new benchmark with its carefully curated offerings. Couples can enjoy a romantic outdoor open-air shower, dine alfresco, relax in a heated infinity plunge pool with chromotherapy, rejuvenate in a private sauna, and unwind in hammocks with a cup of cardamom tea.

The experience begins with a high tea served by the infinity pool and a floating breakfast experience. Couples can enjoy a private movie night under the stars and an intimate candlelit dinner featuring a specially curated five-course gourmet meal paired with non-alcoholic wine. The romantic suite is adorned with fresh flowers and complimentary homemade chocolates to complete the enchanting ambiance.

Adding to the magic, Luxe Nova offers a unique drone video service, allowing couples to capture their special moments amidst nature. The focus on guest wellbeing continues with a private sauna bath designed for complete rejuvenation.

Luxe Nova blends luxury with sustainability, emphasizing minimal ecological impact. The fully recyclable PVC igloo structures are designed to be temporary and removable, ensuring the landscape remains untouched. Flooring made from fast-growing pinewood and energy-saving LED lighting underline the retreat's commitment to eco-friendly living.

Guests receive water in glass bottles to eliminate single-use plastics, and meals are crafted using organic, locally sourced ingredients. Homemade chocolates, free from artificial additives, add an extra layer of thoughtful indulgence.

The retreat enforces a strict no-plastic policy, uses biodegradable alternatives, and manages organic waste through composting. Guests are encouraged to engage in eco-awareness activities such as tree planting and conservation workshops, furthering the brand’s mission of low-impact tourism.

The launch of Luxe Nova comes at a time of significant growth in the Indian glamping market. With India’s glamping sector projected to grow at a CAGR of 20.7%, Luxe Nova positions itself at the forefront of a fast-expanding industry fueled by a rise in domestic tourism and the demand for unique, eco-conscious travel experiences.

jüSTa Hotels & Resorts, operated by Onora Hospitality Pvt. Ltd., is all set to make its Uttar Pradesh debut with the launch of jüSTa Kashi Parampara in August 2025. This will be the boutique brand’s 26th hotel in India and its first in the spiritual city of Varanasi.

Located just 800 meters from the iconic Assi Ghat, jüSTa Kashi Parampara occupies an 80-year-old ancestral home, transformed into a hotel for the first time. Offering a seamless blend of heritage and design, the property promises a deeply immersive stay experience in the cultural heart of India.

“This project is close to our hearts, not just because of its unique character and location, but because it continues our commitment to preserving and reviving heritage properties across India. We started this initiative with jüSTa Diwans Bungalow in Ahmedabad last year and this is the second heritage property we are converting into a jüSTa hotel,” said Ashish Vohra, Founder & CEO, jüSTa Hotels & Resorts.

The two-storied bungalow has been reimagined into 14 well-appointed rooms, including two elegant suites, all built around a central courtyard. Interiors in earthy tones create a serene contrast to Varanasi’s bustling atmosphere, making it an ideal retreat for wellness and spiritual travellers.

Heritage elements such as 100-year-old handcrafted wooden pillars, sandstone jali work from Jodhpur, and high ceilings enhance the haveli-like charm. The hotel will serve only vegetarian food, with guests enjoying local and international cuisine at the in-house multi-cuisine vegetarian restaurant.

With its understated exterior and tranquil interiors, jüSTa Kashi Parampara is poised to offer travellers an authentic yet luxurious Banaras experience when it opens in August 2025.
